    Your favourite chilli sauce is?

    I dont like anything that hot, so basic bitch stuff. Franks is good and nice and vinegary. I like melting a cube of butter and incorporating it.

    What do gamers actually think about Ray-Tracing?

    I like it, but not enough for the framerate hit. It looks marginally better in some circumstances, but 120 FPS looks better than 20 FPS with RTAO.

    The PlayStation Ports thread

    Just semi finished Spiderman and Uncharted, they were both pretty decent. TLOU I already played, the story is amazing but I didnt like the gameplay first time around

    You know you're getting old when...

    The fridge is on the lower ground floor but my knees aren't. God of War on normal is too hard.

    Which Windows mid-ranger out of these?

    I've got an XPS from work and its fine? The quality has dropped in recent years. My partner has just got a new Lenovo and it seems okay.

    Best GPU for £350-400 advice

    6800 was always a good card, they were a bit like gold dust during the pandemic and it was easier to get the 6800XT instead. Either are solid solid cards that have some legs in them.

    Russell Brand.

    He's always been creepy as ****. A lot of men do magic wordsmith **** to get sex, roll 16 or 18 on Charisma to do it. He talks a lot of ******** for the million dollars a year he earns and if he is a rapist then should go to jail for a long time.

    Retirement Plans

    I was born in the seventies and my body is starting to get old and creaky now. As a child of that era, i've always known videogames and dungeons & dragons and as I get older wonder what retirement looks like. I married a Japanese lady 25 years ago so our plan is to move to Fukuoka where we've...

    What is a good salary in UK at present?

    In 2000 I was on what was a very good salary of £38k, so good that the banks were all bending over backwards to give me gold cards. 20 years later and compound inflation got me to £100K which is actually a big pay cut. I dont know the cost of living outside of London, but in the Capital you for...

    What is a good salary in UK at present?

    My pal that works in 999 dispatch in London I think earns around 50k. I'm not that money focused so earn around 100k but most of my peers are on 150k-180k for doing much less interesting work. And before you kick off too much, rent + council tax here is about 3k a month.

    Animal Highways

    I live in a suburban sort of area with a load of trees in the backyards, and we have some walls between the gardens. I find it fascinating to watch all of the creatures using it as a short cut, late at night the foxes use it, early in the morning its all the squirrels and during the day its...

    Will An 850W PSU Be Enough?

    750W is more than enough, but you might want to go 850W so that in 4 years you dont need to replace it

    Which of your high-end hardware has lasted the longest?

    Okay, the Enermax is older than I thought, I bought it in 2008 as part of my pre RGB i7 920 build. It's still working perfectly fine 15 years later but swapped it out as my current PC is pushing it to 80-90% load. Its back in its original box as a useable spare. Moral of this story is overpay a...
