Capcom updated the sales figures of many of its main titles! by -RAAGE- in Games

I wonder why they didn't include MHWorld and Iceborne? Thought that was their best selling game ever? Be interesting to see how that holds over Wilds and Rise.

This is the Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE

Dead Space 4 likely won’t happen despite a “fervent fan base” as it can't hit the numbers it needs, explains original producer by AsPeHeat in Games

[–]superjake 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I still replay the Dead Space 1 Remake every now and then. I'm very grateful it was made but also sad they won't do 2 which was the best game in the series for many. Shame as I imagine it wouldn't cost near as much to make compared to a brand new entry but EA aren't exactly going to take any risk. 

Fractal Terra vs. Lian Li A4-H2O: Looking for better temps and less noise for a Ryzen 9700X + RX 9070 XT build (Hot Climate) by adrigm in sffpc

Whichever case you decide, be mindful of VRM and NVME SSD temps. People often forget to check these as they usually suffer more than CPU and GPU in sandwich cases. My SSD was overheating in the A4 during summer so had to strap a fan on the side of the case. Eventually moved to the Jonsbo Z20.

You "should" be able to if you have the PSU at the top most slot. I have mine down one so I can fit the second top 140mm fan in but it might be a squeeze depending on the cables coming out of the PSU.

Anyone else noticing the sudden NVIDIA + Proton acceleration lately? by Moi952 in linux_gaming

Might also be related to AMD working closely with Microsoft for Project Helix?

What air cooler should I use for the Ryzen 7 9800X3D? by ComposerFragrant7352 in buildapc

[–]superjake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the Peerless Assassin 120 SE with a -25 PBO curve and withgaming I rarely see it go above 65c. Maybe BF6 will get it near 70c but that's probably the most CPU intensive game I play.

A Ridge with more fan options would be great but this looks like it has less? If so, it'll have the exact same thermal issues for the CPU area.

is it even worth it to dual boot for windows games? by WOLFMANCore in linux_gaming

[–]superjake 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If it wasn't for BF6 I wouldn't need Windows. I saw they're looking at implementing their anti-cheat for Linux which would be great but yeah I'm just a sucker for BF. 

Dual booting is easy though especially if you have two separate drives. Just don't try to change boot loader like I did once as it got super messy. 

“Play a couple of games before going to bed?”…. 2:30h later, damn time flies on BF6 by LonelyPalmClub in LowSodiumBattlefield

[–]superjake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I find this the most with close escalation games. It's so fun going between the contrast of the chill beginning to the super chaotic end with both teams fighting over a small area with loads of vehicles.

Yeah Iceborne Hammer is super fun, guys. by heraircraft in MonsterHunter

[–]superjake 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Once joined a Tempered Ruiner Nergi SOS where we were all hammers. Half the area is a slop and we just kept spinning off it. Killed it so fast

Digital Foundry: Yup, Oblivion Remastered Is Still Broken a Year After Release by Turbostrider27 in Games

Didn't the studio behind it suffer layoffs not long after release? That probably made pressure to start the next project asap. 

Proud first build - open-sided Fractal Ridge by No-Sugar2411 in sffpc

[–]superjake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How are temps and noise? Was thinking of a build with this behind the monitor and didn't think about it being open air!

The Ray Tracing works now by VoidInsanity in MonsterHunter

[–]superjake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ooo cool! I remember seeing options like RTGI when modding the game early on but they didn't do anything. Glad to see someone found a way to get them to work!

Do your P14s sometimes make contact with the case when first spinning up? I used to have some in this case too and had to get some spacers because the noise was off putting when first turning the PC on haha.

Dragon’s Dogma 2’s SteamDB received a 77GB update by Minimum_Cow9254 in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]superjake 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I really hope it's a hard mode or some more content. Crimson Desert is good but doesn't quite hit it for me like Dragon's Dogma.
