    So you're one of the lovely folk I get to chat to in a couple years time...

    Baltimore Bridge

    Just a smidge, shoulda said the largest container ship in the world was 29,000 tonnes

    Baltimore Bridge

    So the ship has a deadweight of 116,000 tonnes. In 1969, the largest ship in the world was 29,000 tonnes.

    DMA - resizeable bar - do you always enable it ?

    This is not true. There are instances where non whitelisted games have increased performance with REBAR enabled. Modern Warfare II performance significantly improved by manually enabling it for me.

    Horizon: Forbidden West Complete edition - coming (21/03/2024)

    Regarding gameplay, I found it immensely satisfying blasting chunks of robots off with bombs, applying statuses (freeze being my favourite) and explosing week spots for multi-arrow shots. This was a fight I had in HZD which I think shows off the range of things you can do in a fight. It's 7...

    Yep it has that included.

    Recommendations for FTTP Router?

    My vodafone/city fibre package included a wifi 5 router and a wifi 6 mesh access point. The router was bad, but range was never a problem with the combo.

    FPS - reviews - hype and playable game rates

    Single player game? Pretty happy with capped 60fps to save power. Competitive FPS? I really like 300fps, not been able to try higher but I'd like to. The responsiveness is something else.

    What do gamers actually think about Ray-Tracing?

    Nope but I am sure 1000 words about how ignorant I am will change my mind.

    How often do you use a pen or pencil to write?

    A lot, found I was much better at my job and it really helped my development to write notes. I have a little a6 notebook that fits neatly in my jacket pocket so I always have it on me. At home I also write handwritten notes, for learning French, gaming, munro logbook and shopping lists. I...

    Best network at the moment to use.

    3 says there is no fair usage policy. EE has 600GB.

    Best savings account?

    There is a £200 switching bonus active for Ulster atm, pretty easy to get the bonus too. It says you can't get if you've had money from RBS, Natwest or Ulster previously but it doesn't seem to always be the case. i.e. people getting the bonus multiple times.

    What is the most trusted SSD?

    100GB a day? A definite edge case and not really relevant to the OP. To be fair, most of this discussion is somewhat irrelevant as a single drive can just die at any time. A good backup is all you need. Also a drive doesn't die when it reaches its endurance rating. Some can go for well beyond...

    Best network at the moment to use.

    My gut reaction is no, not a good deal. Do you need broadband? Are you out of contract with your current provider? I'd stick with the lebara deals linked above.

    Best network at the moment to use.

    Extrapolating out, probably about 2GB a month. But give the price difference between 3GB and 5GB is 50p, go for 5GB in case you have a month where you need more. Don't bother talking to any of the paid thieves in phone shops, use the link below...

    What are the 30 year old plus gamers playing?

    Having just turned 30, it's still RDR2 with Cyberpunk 2077, Baldur's Gate 3 and Mass effect trilogy lined up behind. MASON! Then you get onto Bo2 and it's MENENDEZ!

    You're welcome. If you've ever been into one of the big four stores it quickly becomes apparent they are purely there for sales, not support.

    Best network at the moment to use.

    If you go anywhere rural, it's 100% EE. Whilst doing trips into the highlands, I will consistently be the last person with 4G signal. I don't recommended actually signing a contract with any of the big four (3, o2, voda, EE) as there simply isn't any point. They're more expensive and often...

    Best savings account?

    As above, still got 2 months of the higher rate. Will make a decision then. Fortunately I snapped up a few regular saver accounts at higher rates when they were available.
