    Laser eye treatment - who's done it?

    Dug out the email I got from Optical Express in 2015: Standard lasik treatment. Treatment within 2 weeks: £2456 Treatment within 4 weeks: £2600 Basically they would reduce the price if you were able to take an appointment at short notice. My prescription is only -1 / -1.25 though I'd still...

    Destiny 2... It's a coming!

    Zzz :) I did see a video suggesting an easy way to reach the softcap, but guarantee it won't be there when I play again tomorrow:

    Destiny 2... It's a coming!

    Yeah, but this is annoying if you don't want to, as it just keeps flashing at you. I remember the most annoying thing about these expansions though. I started at light level 1050, most of the quests/mobs are 1060, so it's hard, but fine. Then SUDDENLY, all the quests are 1100 light level. So...

    Destiny 2... It's a coming!

    Is the Monument of Lost Lights flashing at me for a reason? I hate flashing things and will always try and get rid of them but I go in and there's nothing obvious that I'm supposed to do...

    Laser eye treatment - who's done it?

    I'd assume total. When I got a quote a few years ago, it was about 2.5k for both eyes. I couldn't quite afford it at the time. I'd be tempted to now, although I'm not sure the return on investment is worth as I'm a bit closer to 40 now...

    Switching from a gaming chair to ergonomic £1,000+ Herman Miller mesh chair or alternatives?

    ** NEW SAMSUNG ODYSSEY G7/G9 MONITORS 27-49" AVAILABLE TO PRE-ORDER **

    How big is your desk? Mine is 80cm deep and is against a wall, I don't think I'd want to use this monitor on a desk any less deep than that. 16.5 inches seems pretty accurate. Bearing in mind there's quite a hefty curve on the monitor...

    ** NEW SAMSUNG ODYSSEY G7/G9 MONITORS 27-49" AVAILABLE TO PRE-ORDER **

    Interesting..not sure I can be bothered to uninstall, install older driver, then install newer ones. I'll just put up with it for now and hope they fix it in the future... :)

    ** NEW SAMSUNG ODYSSEY G7/G9 MONITORS 27-49" AVAILABLE TO PRE-ORDER **

    Basically, yes. I ended up just updating to the latest Nvidia game driver and running the monitor at 120Hz. Figured I'm not likely to get more than 120fps anyway in most games at native res, so it doesn't really make a lot of difference... Nice on getting a good model though!

    MSI's X570 Tomahawk May Become Go-To OC Board??

    I installed it last night to set the RGB lights...yeah, it's pretty terrible. I set them and uninstalled it immediately afterwards. If you ever install it, make sure to uninstall the MSI SDK it leaves behind, as this is what causes all of the active processes running. You can update the BIOS...

    My hair transplant journey

    Yeah, wireless is a massive boon and the Pitbull catches all the hairs inside. Convenience > Slightly smoother finish. The rainforest has a few cheap imitations of the Pitbull, like a third of the price, tempted to give one a go.

    Destiny 2... It's a coming!

    Glad I decided to play Valhalla instead of this last night then :D

    My hair transplant journey

    I had one of these a while back, though it was branded as Skull Shaver. It's pretty close, if you've used an electric razor on your face with the triple circular blades, it's exactly the same sensation. Looks completely bald, but will feel slight jags in one direction. Mine gave up after about...

    Assassin's Creed Valhalla

    Hmm, I was lazy and used Geforce Experience to choose the settings for me. Might need to tinker a bit.

    Assassin's Creed Valhalla

    The water is certainly better than the Thames in Watch Dogs Legion, which looked absolutely awful. Not sure if it was due to the settings I was using... I played a couple of hours last night and enjoyed it so far. HDR seemed to work fine for me...and works well at 32:9!

    ** NEW SAMSUNG ODYSSEY G7/G9 MONITORS 27-49" AVAILABLE TO PRE-ORDER **

    They always use Panther for 2 man deliveries (for larger TVs, fridges, washing machines, etc). DPD don't offer a 2 man service. The extra is entirely optional and actually is usually something that they charge 25 quid for...Certainly for washing machines, though that includes installation. The...

    Ryzen - should I be forcing RAM to 3600 MHz in BIOS

    If you set to XMP, that's it, your RAM will run at the speeds you paid for and as you have 3600MHz RAM, that puts you in the optimum ratio with the CPU at stock. If you're playing games at 4k with high quality settings, tuning the RAM will likely make very little difference. If you're finding...

    Assassin's Creed Valhalla

    How dare you disagree with people :D I didn't enjoy the early games, felt like do this, do that, rinse, repeat. And I've always been a bit rubbish at stealth games. I started to like them when they moved to a more open world RPG style, which is right up my street. If you haven't tried Odyssey...

    MSI's X570 Tomahawk May Become Go-To OC Board??

    Unlikely, pot luck as to how long it's been in transit or on a shelf. I would flash to be safe.

    Airflow advice for AIO & 5950x

    Interesting. Sorry to hijack...I just mounted my AIO on the top, as that's historically been the best placement. My Gigabyte 3080 Vision doesn't run hot at all (about 65 under load), whereas the 5900X seems to run quite hot, I suspect due to the boost pushing voltage quite high, so in theory, I...
