    The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

    Good to know. Thanks for testing. Hopefully performance will improve after a few patches.

    The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

    Looks like this has already been mentioned in this thread and I missed it. Process Lasso can disable HT on an application explicitly.

    The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

    Anyone tried running the game with hyperthreading/SMT disabled if RT is enabled? I know I got a performance bump when I did this with Spider-Man. Haven't downloaded Witcher 3 to test yet and can't seem to find any evidence of anyone trying this.

    The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim DLSS - Could be a game changer for mods!

    Could be a game changer for modded Skyrim VR certainly, if only to replace the games dated TAA implementation with DLAA. Hopefully the developers will release a VR compatible version soon.....

    Rage 2 Free This Week !!

    I played this during the first lockdown on XGP when most of my primary gear was in storage and was forced to play with a controller. Was a pleasant surprise. Really enjoyed it but kept almost exclusively with shotgun. For some reason it was really satisfying with a controller and I'm usually kbm...

    Best games for 30-60 minute sessions

    If strategy is more your thing then Into the Breach is very much like chess.

    Best games for 30-60 minute sessions

    Hades is perfect for this. A single complete run should last 20-30 mins. Roguelites are a good genre for a quick pick up and put down play style

    Low GPU and CPU usage in VR

    Does your Elite Dangerous Steam license entitle you to a free Oculus one still? I bought E:D on Steam yet could still claim an Oculus license. I could then install and run via Oculus launcher using link. Not sure if you can still do that though...

    Quest 2 Facebook leak - XR2 chipset, 6gb RAM, "almost 4k display"

    Thanks Tangey. I still have my Quest and have until end of day to take into CEX. I'll take it back into store and take my chances. Thanks again

    Quest 2 Facebook leak - XR2 chipset, 6gb RAM, "almost 4k display"

    I understand that it's all a negotiation and that the store guy's job is to walk you down but it's the lack of consistency that drives me crazy. Tangey's store honored the price-point of the day that the sale was agreed, even when re-graded.

    Quest 2 Facebook leak - XR2 chipset, 6gb RAM, "almost 4k display"

    How did you manage that? I set up a sale with CEX on 15.09 @ A-grade for £292. Took it into store and was told that it wouldn't make A-grade and it most likely it would be re-graded to B, but at 17.09 prices which made it £188!? Is this right? I would have thought they would honor 15.09 price...

    Pull the trigger or wait?

    Personally I'd prefer to skip a gen and wait for Volta next year. It's not too long to wait, especially since you appear to be happy with what you have. However, if the need to scratch the itch is too great then this looks like the best deal going atm...

    Your favourite titles that require almost no GPU power?

    Invisible Inc; Superhot Doom with mods: Brutal Doom or Project Brutality Ftl is probably the king of low-fi entertainment though

    Oculus Rift

    OK. I assume it isn't the bluetooth variety though. I was after one of those already and thought "2 birds with one stone".

    Oculus Rift

    This has peaked my interest. I just wish I bought Elite Dangerous during the Steam Summer Sale now. Does anyone know if this deal also includes the Xbox wireless controller? It's listed on the rainforest but not Overclockers product description.

    My 1070 is idling at 62c

    Could be malware related. It wouldn't surprise me what with the latest mining craze.... I'd run a full surface scan with a recognised av to rule that out.

    Gigabyte UK Warranty

    They replaced with a refurb which also failed after 6 months. On my 2nd RMA they covered delivery costs and swapped out for what looked like an unused 980 (it had the cellophane over the heatsink shroud). It could also have been a refurb but has been serving me well ever since.

    Gigabyte UK Warranty

    I had a 780ti Windforce that developed a fault 18 months ago. If it's within warranty and its your first Rma request Gigabyte will insist that collection and delivery costs are paid for by the customer. If you live near Milton Keynes you can drop it off at their Returns Dept. All subsequent Rmas...

    S.T.A.L.K.E.R - Lost Alpha

    There's an issue with the 1.4001 hotfix. When ran it deletes 2 files: *.dbd and *.dbc I believe. Renaming these 2 file extensions prior to running the hotfix avoids the issue. The Devs are aware though and are repacking/posting before the weekend. I can't say that it's bug free though as i...
