The locked 40hz/fps is a really neat option to have imo, tried Witcher 3 last night and can run that at decent settings with a locked 40 can’t wait to play through this as I never completed it originally anyway!

I did that with Witcher 3 too, capped it at 40hz.

Works lovely in Control as well. It does look like 60 is do-able with all low settings but the 40/40 option feels just as good and looks better.

It comes from the Netherlands. It will sit there at their hub for like 3-4 or even 5 days. You will get no update during this period.

Then on the morning (or the night before), you will get an alert it will be delivered tomorrow/today.

Like a surprise!

It's easily possible if you tinker with the settings. Had it at 60fps at some points.

Got my email for the 512gb last night, and now ordered. Pre-ordered in late June.

It's worth the wait, ordered mine back in October 2021 - 512GB is beast

Thanks, a bit expensive but I'd rather have the most memory built in. I'll get an SD card later.

what settings did u use?

I'm glad I never got to pay the double price the scalpers on ebay and Facebook market were asking for . I would have hated it when my email comes through! Also I'm sure cex the exchange shop must have lost money on these. They bought loads and as the availability has picked up, no one will pay £800,for something that is under £600 ..

 

[Raymond Lin]

^^^ I know someone on another forum paid £100 over RRP and then the day he picked it up he got the email lol

I am sorry I do not remember. I know I turned all the Nvidia stuff off though and I am confident I turned the foliage distance down a tad and that helped a ton

Some people have no patients. I was making offers on some before I got my email, but only for £20 over RRP.
My local CEX had a 512GB for £900... It was there last week and gone now, so I guess someone couldn't wait any longer!

 

[StarShock]

The queue is pretty short now anyway, I suspect people putting their name down now will likely get in maybe 6 weeks

last lot were people who had ordered as recently as July

 

[Ravenger]

Got my tracking number. Getting excited now. Backlog reducing machine will be here soon.
