I mean you can be an Nvidia purist and spend the $300 extra for the 5070ti for the 5%-10% performance boost in some games. But IMO its not worth. the 9070xt runs great. So far ive had no problems with it. Super stable not one crash yet, runsd super cool, and all my games ive tried run great. Big step up from the 3070 I had before. My kid has the 7900xt for like a year now and 6800xt before that and I hear no complaints from him about using AMD vs Nvidia.

I was super impressed with that case for $90. Its bigger than my old one but comes with 4x 140mm fans and a fan usb and LED hub on the back of it. Really nice chinesium for $90. Super air movement inside that thing with the 4x 140mm.
Was hunting around based on your specs and found the Newegg ABS brand of PC on sale. It's only missing another HD, which I can just order order one and plop in. For 2k and I don't have to fuck with it, thinking this might be the deal for me.

Looks good to me. You can always add an M2 drive later. They are only $150 or so.

It's arriving today at some point. I know for us gaming nerds there's nothing quite like new PC day. I kind of shelved a second playthrough of BG3 and my second playthrough of cyberpunk. My old machine was even struggling with rogue trader, but I guess even being the bee's knees 6 years ago, it was finally time to put it to pasture.

My wife was like what are you going to cook this weekend and I said new pc weekend, you're going to have to make due on your own. I say that but I think I might actually do Mongolian beef tomorrow.

I need an inventory management mod. Playing with only two players most of your stuff doesn't go onto someone else.

I looked at mods and most of the inventory stuff was like more bags or bags that came with stuff in them. Be nice if you could just rename bags but you can't.

Auto sort some items into bags when you loot them, like scrolls, potions, poisons, bombs. For the non-auto sort it highlights the bag it can go in when you pick it up, such as gloves in the glove bag and weapons into the weapons bag.


and to make bags bigger


There is also a mod to increase weight limit, such as double, triple, or even set it to 9000.

Just send everything to the camp chest and auto sort.

I'll look through the bag mod posted. I tried a few and the ones I got earlier were just bags of crap you get for new players. It's not a weigh issue. I carry all stuff I might actually use all the time on my two players. Anything that gets sent to camp is just for sale later. Some places you can't port back to camp until you are done with the dungeon or whatever so I carry a iot and switch out by fight.

My BladeSinger turned out real well considering I'm not much of a caster player. Lot of AC to the point the AI would attack shadowheart first every time rather than me. I did cazadore, Gortash and Orin. I'm not going for the brain with just me and shadowheart. It was fun though. I could do Anser maybe but I kinda lost my desire.

I'm considering another run so I'm gonna look at the mods for bags. Not sure on class.

Bag issue could have been solved if they allowed you to change the name on bags but apparently not.
