'Eventually' has arrived. Shiny Bykski waterblock arrived yesterday! Now trying to build up the courage to dismantle the single most expensive item I have ever purchased...

I'll be having a pop at that tonight then :)

Also really easy to muck about with the config files- I set pipebombs with a similar yield to Castle Bravo, could take out practically an entire level with em :D

Oh well, did it anyway. Not for CS2 reasons, but just because I wanted to. :)

Roundabouts in CS1 really needed TMPE to set up correctly (ctrl-shift-left click!) so hopefully that'll come too...

I'm on 3440x1440 res. Think I'll stick with what I've got then, cheers for the input!

Thank you. That's the feedback I was after. I shall stick with plan A :)

Currently on a 5800X... how multithreaded is CS2? My thinking is that lobbing a 5950X at it might be a good upgrade. Was going to sit tight for another gen or two, but this game is giving me an itchy trigger finger... To be honest, I've been umming and ahhing about it for months anyway, this...

Read somewhere there's a bug with the incinerator plant- actually produces trash rather than removing it. Known, and possibly patched already- but this should be sorted soon, hopefully!

I'm currently playing Skylines 1. Still absolutely love it, and I'll probably pretty much ignore 2 until it's had some polishing. Which will happen, I think- there will be some updates, I'd imagine. The devs will want to quell the disquiet, No Man's Sky kinda style. It'll get there...

Hopefully the modders get in soon. Few little niggles I'd like ironed out... Undo being one of them!

Was going to hold out a while, but stuff it. Purchased! Only two hours for the download...

Built a 3950X rig for a friend a few years ago- my payment was his old 5960X, mobo and RAM. Checked Anandtech's comparison thingy, and it apparently has less grunt, and far higher power consumption than my old 2700X. It's still sat in a box, waiting for me to do something with it. Seems a...

I try to keep relatively up to date- although last time I tried I couldn't get my ram to run at anything other than stock, until I rolled back again...

Hmm. Turned off 'Tesselation' in NMS settings and things are back down in the 70s/80s. Weird- my old Vega didn't like tesselation either... must be an AMD thing... Planning to waterblock it eventually (Bykski have made a block for this card, apparently) so perhaps I'll stick with it for now.

Kernel power 41 simply means an unexpected shutdown occurred, it isn't the fault itself, and doesn't point to the cause. My guess would be either memory instability, or the CPU not getting enough power under load. What RAM exactly are you running, and is XMP/DOCP enabled?

If it is then I'm RMAing the card!

I've been having a bit of trouble with No Man's Sky ever since I got my XTX. Just crashes out over and over, to the point I'd given up trying to play it. Fired it up today for the first time in ages, and ran AMD Link on my phone to see if anything was going on. 108 degrees hotspot temp. That's...

I had a similar (actually identical) issue with my 5800X. The problem? The CPU cooler was screwed down too tight... and my issue began randomly as well- it'd been working fine for months then just refused to boot one morning. Exactly the same, would boot with one stick but nothing else. Reseat...

You'd have to ask the mod who gave me the username. I can only assume so... :P
