I've been using an old, Technics hifi. It's absolutely stunning. 5.2 surround sound and the magic audio processing it does on its own. The 3-way fronts are lovely, while the satellites are just okay. Overall, it's excellent for music and games.

I've used an MM710 for years, then replaced it with an MM711 when the old mouse had scroll wheel issues. I cannot imagine going to a G502, which at almost twice the mass, would negate any wireless advantage (for me). The Model O wireless is the logical choice if you like the MM710, as it has a...

I dunno why the game wasn't officially fixed by the devs. Performance was okay with both my old (AMD R290) and new (GTX 1080) cards. The FAR fan mod allows the resolution and performance to be changed. There are loads more performance options in this mod. I noticed that it loads from the HDD...

I finished my Leon Hardcore playthrough this weekend after finishing the Claire campaign last week. It's an excellent game, nostalgic but fresh. Fans of the old game will love it and anyone looking for a solid survival horror game should consider this.

What's the viewing angle like on this monitor, specifically the vertical viewing angle? I sometimes game on a couch and look slightly up at my monitor. I'm wondering if there is any colour shift when doing this?

What is the FreeSync range for the 27" 1440p one? It says up to 165Hz but what is the lower threshold? Does it support a VESA stand?

Same day service again! Thanks Rory :D

There's no Reinhardt. Damn, this was necro'd. Even more heroes now so the poll would miss even more. Probably Pharah, Rein, Zen for me.

A mid-range AMD card with a FreeSync monitor is really a nice combo, and far cheaper than doing the Gsync alternative.

But which revision are you looking for? :unsure: I'm also keen on getting one.

That Samsung has great input lag according to RTings and supports 4:4:4 chroma at 4K, making it great for usage as a PC monitor. My current monitor is a Dell SE2717H. 1080p 75Hz, IPS, Freesync. Likes: Freesync (48-75Hz) IPS Colours Price (R2.6k or so) Dislikes: Narrow Freesync range...

You might have to update the BIOS on that mobo for it to recognise your CPU. Yet another reason to opt for a newer board. RAM compatibility has improved but Samsung B-die RAM still ensures the best compatibility. Check your motherboard's QVL RAM vendors and check. Ryzen does benefit from high...

Got my key same day. Thanks for the quick and supportive sale!

Wait, you drive an AW11 MR2?

So the Crosshair seems really impressive! Would I still manage with the X470 Strix if I did not want such hectic OC'ing? Your X370 results were still great. Another question, how do the PCIe lanes get distributed if I want to use an NVME SSD? This review says that the GPU will be at 8x speed...

Nice clocks so far! What RAM are you using and what is the speed and timings?

Some people have noticed AMD equivalent products without the respective 'gaming' branding: https://imgur.com/a/dcxDt https://s13.postimg.org/tdv2zbcfr/gamingbox.png It could just be a coincidence or un-updated product details, who knows.

I got one new, over 10 years ago, and it still works beautifully. Whoever gets this is in for a real treat, especially with a game like Dirt.

Viceroy (known short sellers) are also involved in this. They released a report with CTS findings in it and claim that AMD stock is worthless. Too suspicious.

I've been playing for a while but I've had bad luck in the past 2 seasons and could not get out of Silver. I main tanks and healers. My nick is the same, "LazyDemoni", I don't know my Bnet number offhand. Will update.

Re: Inporting A car For the wife! Doesn't that fit into the exotic/collectible category? I remember researching this a while back when I wanted a rare classic, that was younger than vintage. I'll take a look at those vlogs, thanks for that!

So I have a Dell SE2717H which only has 1 HDMI port. I bought an HDMI switch so I can use consoles on it too. When I use my PC through the switch, FreeSync does not work - the AMD control panel says it's not supported. Without the switch, FreeSync works fine. Another interesting thing is that...

There is the FAR patch to fix the resolution but even without it, it played fine for me from day 1.

I don't want to name names but there are companies that sell millions of cars a year and lie about emissions.

https://raru.co.za/video-games/4082173-overwatch-pc Not a bad price.

Please put me in line if the deal doesn't go through.

I'm surprised! I've seen loads of the older models around. I didn't even know the BRZ was no longer for sale. That article is only for sales in September though, if I'm reading correctly? I do wonder if people aren't buying used 86s instead of new ones, as they aren't that different.

Damn, that was a great Ryzen combi.

FWIW, I don't think you're being too forceful. If I were to buy a car for the wife, I'd opt for something newer and hopefully more reliable. The 86 is a good choice in this case. If it were for me, I'd buy an older car like an E39 M5 or a Z4 M Coupe (Z3s are too much).

How much trust are you going to put in a tuned, performance BMW - in terms of reliability and maintenance? It's a lovely car and the owner has seemingly done some preventative maintenance but I think this will be even more to maintain than the Renault. As for the French connection, my family...

I think @Toi might have one / had one. I don't know if it was the QV though. Hmm, am I using the wrong username? I love Alfas but the dealer network seems small.

The torque is probably available lower down. The thin air in JHB makes all NA cars less powerful than at the coast.

My brother test drove an 86 but ended up getting a 208 GTi instead. He said the 86 felt a bit slower, which makes sense for a NA car at altitude. Either way, slow is relative, so I think it would be a nice upgrade over your Kia.

Somehow I don't think this is possible but I would take a nice Ryzen combo at that price!

One game that looked amazing was Okami on PS2. This was later remastered on PS3 and now there will be a next gen release with 4K support. I'm sure it will look amazing! I would also nominate any Vanillaware game, particularly the PS4 remakes. Guilty Gear Xrd has a lovely 2D style in a 3D engine...

Because the thread is about good anime ;) Have you watched Corpse Princess? It might be your kind of thing.

Ahh, I gotcha. I should give Elfen Lied a rewatch but it was pretty heavy and I don't think I can stomach it again. I do remember loving it despite that and it does seem to be a polarising show.

I don't see how you can be critical of Elfen Lied's story and mention Trinity Blood as being better. It's been ages since I saw those shows but I was left feeling indifferent about Trinity (specifically with the story and ending) while I enjoyed Elfen. Different strokes I guess. I would add...

OP did ask about tax, would there not be some kind of capital gains tax applied here?

QFE. Is there an SA server? Hmm, according to the Steam group linked above, there is but it's quiet. https://steamcommunity.com/groups/Quake_Champions_South_Africa/discussions/0/1474221865199703806/

PM'd about the amp.

Something like this is not a bad place to start: https://www.ormsdirect.co.za/canon-eos-1300d-dslr-starter It comes with a kit lens that should serve her well in most daily situations. Later I would recommend a prime (non-zoom) lens. These are fun for learning, allow more light in, produce...

The game is out. Has anyone played it and what's the lag like?

This Dell is 27" and has Freesync (narrow range though, 48-75Hz) and is IPS. It is 1080p which some people find to be too small for a monitor of this size. Personally, I'm okay with it but I don't pixel peep...

Yeah those prices are what Woots is listing them for now: https://www.wootware.co.za/catalogsearch/result/?cat=&q=threadripper

Hopefully Vega 56 is reasonably priced (locally) and performs well. It might be a nice alternative to a GTX 1070.

So do you connect the adpater to the end of the PS4 and run a VGA cable from it to the monitor? How do you get sound? Is the picture quality okay, given that you're converting from analog to digital? Thanks in advance, I also use consoles on my PC monitor and might be getting a new one.

DOOM MP wasn't perfect but it had potential. Hopefully the interest this free update generates will be sustained over time, or at least until I can download it!

I remember some kind of challenge mode that was unlocked after clearing the game. It was immensely tough for me on controller. I look forward to it regardless.

It's a great game but I wonder if it won't be too easy with mouse aim?
