    Humankind (Civ-style game from Amplitude Studios)

    I've got about 1,300 hours into Civ6 and I really enjoy 4X and turn based strategy games. I think my favorite one (besides Civ) more recently would be Age of Wonders: Planetfall. That game is great and highly recommend it if you like 4X games. TLDR: I guess my whole review would be that...

    Humankind (Civ-style game from Amplitude Studios)

    Yeah I wasn't sure if you meant something beyond that - definitely noticed that but the system is shit. Especially after turn 25~ they end up just going in circles in like 3-4 hex's. It doesn't explore "fog of war" (like you said though, you want to explore on your own). The system is just...

    Care to elaborate on this? I find the auto explore in this game to be attrocious.

    Only time I don't lock my doors when I leave the house is if I'm going outside to mow the lawn or fuck around outside. Otherwise fuck that, even if my wife is home, I always lock them. 🤷‍♂️

    MSI afterburner can be used with nearly any card, and also is capable of using OC Scanner (if the card supports it) and then using it to modify the freq/voltage curve.

    I was mostly making a joke, at my own expensive too, but hey I'll fire back with you're still a dumbass if you have a Dark Hero and aren't overclocking. Let alone the custom loop setup and not overclocking, at the very least enabling PBO. It's easier than OCing the GPU with OC Scanner (again, at...

    Right? That's almost as stupid as building a 5950x/3090 build with a custom loop and not OC'ing it. Or Doing a similar build with a $500 PSU but not doing a custom loop/LN2 cooling to max out the power draw. Some people, I tell ya.

    overkill build Plus the monitoring capabilities of it are pretty rad, the efficiency is amazing, I could keep yapping... just a dumb overkill.

    Might have to make the move to a custom loop and get my 3090 on it. Cinebench up to 11531(pretty damn good) and Port Royal is OK at 13761 Here's my settings for a start if you're using the Dark Hero with the 5950x (ignore the RAM stuff if you don't have the same/similar sticks): Extreme...

    Still screwing around with my OC, but I've got my Cinebench R20 up to 11230 so far. The DOS on the Dark Hero board is so fucking nice, still setting that up yet. Really good video for it here...

    I guess that is kind of my point. You're not learning anything new about the system (custom loop aside). If all you're doing is just popping in the CPU and hitting load optimized defaults... what's there to learn? I do understand making the build to learn all the water cooling stuff. I'd...

    So you wasted a bunch of time to do a custom loop and didn't OC because... you get enough frames? I'm so confused. Just run PBO on the 5950x and OC Scanner on the card. Boom done. PBO takes like 10 seconds to do. OC Scanner can take a little time to let it do its thing (like 10 min or so). At...

    Why wouldn't you want to OC a 5950x? It's so easy. Hell even the 3090 is easy as heck to OC.

    We'll see in the future. I'm just going to enjoy it for now. My idle temps are a lot better than what others had posted and that's without the better AIO.

    I wouldn't do anything under a 1k PSU with a 3090/5950x. Just a personal preference. I didn't include everything in my build there but 850w isn't something I'd personally fuck with. 1600 is definitely over kill, I'll give you that but it's efficient as hell so w/e Fair point. Might go custom in...

    Put my overkill build together and got it finished up today. Case fans are Noctua chromax swap NF-S12A x 7 and radiator will eventually run in push/pull with NF-F12's (I fucking hate RGB). Still waiting for the Arctic Liquid Freezer to show up, using an old AIO until then. PCPartPicker Part...

    That beer is definitely great but god damn was it over hyped for me before I bought it. I think it used to be top 20 or 15 or something on Beer Advocate and when I was going through my IPA phase I was diamond hard when I finally got my hands on it... and was promptly disappointed when it tasted...

    I would highly recommend waiting until HDMI 2.1 monitors start coming out Q1/Q2 of next year. I normally am not one of those WaIt TiL nExT gEn guys but HDMI 2.1 will definitely be worth the wait (if you have a GPU that supports HDMI 2.1). I've got one of the Eve SPECTRUM 1440p 240hz monitors...

    We lost this very good boy today at the ripe ol' age of 8 years old. He had a litany of health issues including epilepsy and a very weakened immune system. He went out on his own terms thankfully, we didn't have to make the decision for him. RIP buddy boy :(
