My 4 month old PC cant do Windows 11 either. Apparently my MSI motherboard doesnt do the TPM thing out of the box. If that's the problem, I'd have to buy a module to plug into the mobo itself. Nah, Im good with Windows 10 i think...

Youve got about 70ish quests after the Ultimate Weapon before the Heavensward main quests start. (lots of new dungeons and trials too though, but yeah, a fuckload of quests and some loooong ass cut scenes left)

I wish I never tied my account into my google acct cause Id sell that sucker in a heartbeat. It just feels weird that the units I was using nearly a year ago are still top tier/meta. SG really did create monsters back at the beginning. I always enjoyed the game but my competitive nature led me...

I havent played E7 in close to 8 months or so (I think?) Is Arb still a top tier meta unit even after all this time?

No mystery heroes in the arcade today? I do not want to play deathmatch or ctf...

Got the Moira skin from the freebie. I havent played Overwatch in a while, Im super happy to see that just playing a game gives credit toward the free event skin now instead of having to win (I play mostly MH, people would just bail if they started losing, games were annoying)

For anyone not going the prebuilt route: AMD Ryzen 7 5800x for $420 at B&H Photo. In stock as of this posting.

My 8 year old 770 is doing a bang up job considering the shoes it has to fill. Im getting my 3090 replacement from EVGA this week, hopefully this one will be less like a brick than the last one....

I get my RMA'd video card back this week, so Im looking forward to actually getting to play the game again instead of being an afk fisher and story quester. I dropped some silver on gathering gear, just enough to push me over the first checkpoint of 750 mastery and have been sucking trees for...

Gathering was always kinda my go-to lifeskill. Id run around smacking trees or rocks, process the wood to planks or ore into ingots and selll it. This was back when the sailboats were a big thing, everyone was after and planks and logs and they sold like fire. My gathering skill is Master so Id...

Apparently Ive been out of the lifeskill game longer than I realized. My original character had fairly high gathering skill (for the time), but when I was really into it was before the Manos stuff, back when Silver Embroidered and the stupid ghillie suit were the way to go. Now there's Mastery...

I dont have enough leftover of consequence to turn in, I had hoped they could be exchanged for the new ones though as it'd put me over 100 of the shiny ones.

Sounds like a plan. I loaded up the market with a shitload of raw wood with an even bigger shitload left in the bank. Unloading it will be a longterm sorta goal I guess. My original main has a good start on the lifeskills so ill probably be focusing on that stuff while i wait for my video card...

I still havent sat down with the Anbu thing yet to figure it all out. The last time I really was into BDO, wood crates were a big money maker. Hoofing thousands of crates from Grana to Valencia sucked. I have so much wood still sitting in Heidel and Calpheon but I doubt the crates are worth...

This Water festival came along at a good time. I can sorta play the game with the crappy 770 I have installed but it's far from ideal. Setting my lifeskiller to AFK fish for two weeks while waiting on my card RMA is a better use of time than limping along as I am currently.

I was at 113 failstacks when I hit TET. That many failstacks was around 30.02% chance of success.

EVGA has traditionally had some of the best support of any card maker Ive dealt with. Im pretty sure Ill be in good hands, just gotta wait for their response before I can get the ball rolling. Lotta hoops to jump through with such an expensive card though. Register the card, upload a copy of the...

You're not wrong. Ill likely be saving up for my other accessories and buy them outright. I got lucky finally with getting a belt success last night so I have a TET Tungrad belt now and I doubt ill roll the dice any further with accessories. As for the map farming, not everything I do makes...

I did continue to hear the game after the monitors went black. I can tinker around in the bios tonight on the motherboard and make sure that other PCIe is active and plug the card in again. Other than that, Im not entirely sure what else I can try.

I did not know that, but it is a moot point, the card is apparently dead. Whether there was a hardware failure or BDO killed it somehow I dunno. I used my 770 as my primary card and had the 3090 in the other pci slot and the hardware monitor didnt even recognize the 3090 as being there, it...

Yeah, the TET accessories are something Im sorely missing. I feel like I should have had a few by now but rng is just not being kind. I've got a few 115+ failstacks now that I feel like have to come through for me at some point soon (it's a 30-32% success rate and Ive landed on the wrong side of...

Full TET boss armor, TET Dande, Kzarka and Kutum and a mix of Tri and Tri-equivalent Capotia accessories. Currently running as a succession DK, but Im about 150 skill points shy of being where I need to be. My computer is a new build I just finished back in Feb. Ryzen 7 5800x CPU and an EVGA...

Yeah, card isnt coming alive at all. Ive swapped PCI slots, Ive swapped around psu cables, Ive tried one monitor at a time in various slots and nada, all after giving the card hours to cool down outside the case. My buddy at work wants to take a look at it tomorrow, he's wanting to try to undo...

I just did pretty much all that today. I had a TET kzarka and bought a TRI blackstar and banked the zarka for now. I setup the node with a stupid fast gobby so hopefully soon I may be ready to give the TET bump a whirl. In another note, has anyone ran into an issue with BDO eating their gpu? I...

I guess it's possible. Using your suggestion about vram overheating, I searched for Black Desert causing those sorts of issues and apparently it's a thing, and has been for a while. The game has been causing cards to overheat for years. I guess the question at this point is, if that's what...

EVGA 3090 FTW3 Ultra. I cant imagine Black Desert could push that card into overheating. I was watching a twitch vod on another monitor at the time too, but still...

Well, I may have boned my card, or my card may have boned me, Im not sure which. I did the resizable bar thing the other day and after nearly two months with no issues, I have issues. I was playing Black Desert and when the game went into a cut scene, my card tried to take flight. Fans went into...

I havent even started the Blackstar stuff yet. Ive been debating on what to buy/upgrade next, Ive been leaning toward finishing out tet accessories but maybe the Blackstar thing is the way to go.

These guys giving out that free Capotia jewelry set was nice, it has allowed me to blow up another TRI Tungrad necklace and earring without smashing my head into a wall. I went 0 for 5 on PEN Dande attempts before I ran out of cron stones. I'd like to think Im due for an upgrade or two but I...

Reinstalled this weekend to test the muscles on my new pc and had a shitload of transfer rewards in my mail. I guess I misunderstood how those were being distributed, I thought I had missed out on getting them. All those transfer tickets were nice, it allowed me to switch back to maining my DK...

The fresh start server thing has never really grabbed me. So much stuff in this game comes from long grinds, I'm too materialistic to give it all up to start over on another server. Although that usually means staying on servers that are ghost towns.

Yeah I kinda wish I had waited a few more weeks to sell mine (sold my stuff about 2 weeks ago now), but I was ready to spend the money and impatience won out. Prices are just gonna keep going up too it looks like. I feel extremely fortunate that I was in the right place at the right time to grab...

You have to go out of your way to avoid the RGB it seems like. I didnt want any RGB in my latest build but couldnt get around it on my ram and video card. I tried to offset it with a case that has tinted, tempered glass on the side. The RGB is still visible, but it's a bit muted rather than...

I got $350 in literally seconds on ebay for my regular 1080, you could pull 500 or more for a TI without any effort.

Yeah, I feel like if it were something I wanted to do, I'd have needed more cards than what I had at my disposal to offset the higher power bill, especially with warmer weather coming up. It gets fucking nasty humid and hot in Georgia during the summer, that power bill would be disgusting.

People on ebay are super thirsty for cards. I didn't bother with waiting for bids, I just tossed my 1080 and 1070 up with Buy it Now prices set. The 1080 sold for 350 before I could even get the 1070 listed, which sold for 250 almost as fast. May could have gotten more riding out a bid timer...

Four door vehicles cant seem to escape the cops at all. The weird little two door car Summit bought can outrun the cops, he pulled it off a few times earlier in that same stream, but the four door they used as a getaway vehicle had nothing. Cops caught up at almost every straight away. I guess...

That's pretty awesome. My stuff looks like something a four year old would build out of Lincoln Logs.

The changes to vehicles with the 3.0 updated for NoPixel will lead to some pretty crazy chases once people start doing more criminal activities. Summit, Ramee, Randy and Mr K pulled off what they believed was the first successful Fleeca heist Wednesday night. The heist itself was pretty funny...

That looks like a pretty nice prebuilt. I started to link a prebuilt machine on newegg I almost bought for 2100 a few weeks back but that Microcenter one is a fair bit better for a few hundred more.
