    Diablo Immortal

    I'd play if it had controller support.

    Star Wars Squadrons

    Is this worth buying for like $14 with Epic store 40% off + $10 off coupon?

    Virtual Learning for a COVID World

    I hate to do this because it's dumb. But Delaware has decided my kids will have full days of school virtually until mid October to start with. I'm in my office, and I have a 3yo. I'd kind of prefer to try and setup the TVs in my kids rooms with Zoom some how. Right now they have Roku Sticks...

    I just pre-ordered the MSI MPG B550 GAMING PLUS from B&H for $150. Hope it fixes my issues.

    Desktop Computers

    So, looks like I might have a bad motherboard (ASRock x470 Taichi). Still in warranty but I can't be without my computer if I need to send it for RMA. I might just buy a new mobo and sell the replacement when it gets sent. Was thinking about doing a B550 board, mostly because I hate the...

    Computer Issues

    Going to look into an RMA. Still within warranty for 20 days or so. I can't be without my computer for work. If I do need to send it in to RMA, I'll probably have to buy another mobo to use then just sell the replacement when I get it.

    Computer Issues

    Here is where we are at... New RAM didn't fix it. New PSU didn't fix it. New GPU didn't fix it. That leaves me with Ryzen 3600 or my x470 Taichi. Unless it's something really weird like Corsair fans/hubs, etc. Now here is a new quirk, I've noticed my clock hasn't been keeping time properly...

    Computer Issues

    Ordered this power supply to try and test with, if that turns out to be the problem $80 isn't terrible and I've had good luck with corsair renewed items. If it does end up being the problem I'll try to get my Coolermaster replaced via warranty and sell it for $80 bucks to offset. If it turns...

    Computer Issues

    Was on sale for like $60, the bad reviews were DOA, but it works. Like I said just wonky reboots. Was kind of hoping it wasn't power supply because they are expensive now a days. Guess I could buy one to test with.

    Computer Issues

    I've been having some funky random crash issues. Sometimes in game, sometimes out of sleep, sometimes just doing productivity stuff. Screens flick out and back and eventually crashes, sometimes hanging with case fans are full blast. Sometimes it's a reboot. Running memtest86 and bought some RAM...

    Moved my PC into a Lian Li O11, really love the look.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Yeah trying to get 50 on my Dragoon this weekend. What are daily roulettes?
  13. Mr. K

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    So my Dragoon is 46 now. Then I think I'm going to try Samurai. I've basically only done MSQ and Blue Quests. For my second job do I just do the Side Quests since I skipped most of them?

    Desktop Computers

    That's my problem. My main desktop uses a Corsair AIO, I decided to get fancy since I hadn't built in like 10 years. Then I decided to take apart my old desktop (i7 920) and stick it in a modern case. Bought one of those big brick CPU fans...what a pain in the ass. Much easier to mount a...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Started playing via the free method. I'm level 18. It's been probably 10 years since I've played a MMO. I was doing pretty much every quest I saw, and treating this like Borderlands or some other game, and then I traveled from Ul'dah to Gridania due to some quest (maybe the main one?) and...

    Investing General Discussion

    Oh no, I have the money. It was sitting in a money market mutual fund making a little bit before the downturn happened. Maybe I'll just do a partial investment in Disney instead of the whole thing.

    Investing General Discussion

    That's fair. I don't know that I'd forgo them the trip if this went totally sideways...but if we go much more sideways than we are now it might get cancelled anyway.

    Investing General Discussion

    I can't actively trade to make money, but I have been setting aside funds for a Disney trip in a couple years. I was contemplating using the money and actually investing in Disney, while teaching the kids about it (12 and 9). I was just going to do sort of a dollar cost averaging strategy while...

    Exactly. Might as well get cable.

    It's funny because all I want is a $25 service that only does sports and I'd be good.

    Routers & Other Networking Stuff

    I don't understand the mesh hate. I've tried 3 systems, Plume, Tenda Nova and Netgear Orbi. Plume didn't end up being very good. For $120 the Tenda Nova MW6 was great for a couple years. I only upgraded to the Orbi system due to a really good deal. I have 40ish devices running in my 3100sqft...

    This is where I'm at. I'm not expecting 8 years out of it. But I'll spend a few months in it for sure.

    Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem

    Was able to get in. Kind of hate starting over. I'll just have to play a different classish.

    Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem

    Online is an option. But get a game service time out error when I try to name my character.

    Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem

    Better than D3's face tank everything yawnfests. I didn't play PoE so I can't talk to that. But it's way better than D3.

    Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem

    Online been down all day, but I do like the game. I'm fine with the idea of ironing out some bugs if the core gameplay and graphics are fun. Which they are.

    2 years later... the almost sad state of MMOs in the new era

    Is that because they don't want to play MMOs or is it that it's been 15 years since a good MMO has been released. I mean it's been trash money grabs since WoW basically. I still think Blizzard screwed themselves by not doing a polished Diablo MMO 5 or so years ago before they blew away all of...

    The comments for that article read like these forums. Guess no one is interested in the Wokeness.

    Cord-Cutting, Or How to Stream your Way to Success

    Appreciate the response, I'm downloading 1080p with 5.1 rips (around 10gb). It seems to be an issue with Plex, I just never see a good way to fix it.

    Legends of Runeterra - Card game by Riot Games

    I like games like this, but stink at deck building. I've done the whole tutorial and a bit of the next area, should I just be saving cards?

    Cord-Cutting, Or How to Stream your Way to Success

    Decided to give Plex another go and download the occasional movie. I stream from my hardwired computer to my hardwired LG TV with the Plex app. Sound is 5.1 through my Denon receiver. I feel like there are a lot of instances where the dialogue is really quiet while the sound effect stuff is very...

    Cord-Cutting, Or How to Stream your Way to Success

    Legal streaming isn't worth it anymore unless you split the cost between two people. YouTube TV is the best way to go about it right now. You get 6 streams and can "share" with family.

    Most cases end up looking similar. My big thing is take the time to make it look clean. Like this is my computer with a $60 Corsair 275R.

    Marvel Universe stuff

    I've had zero interest in Marvel since End Game, I am curious if I'm an exception. But I think I'm done with this version of the Marvel Universe.

    My Sapphire 5700XT Pulse is perfect, sounds like you may have gotten a dud. I've gotten dud Nvidia cards too. Anecdotal is anecdotal.

    Borderlands 3

    Frustrating thing for me is trying to figure out how to farm an item. Trying to get a Lucian's Call and just seems totally random.
