PC Thread? PC thread.

What're you running, playing, wanting to play?

Just bought a new GPU so looking for some new games to play. I love Witcher 3, MGS V, DCS world and those types, anyone know anything similar?

It's all good if it works. I used the pic of a Ti4200 because that card was unbreakable, it'd probably still be running now if I could use it for any sort of gaming haha

Nothing too fancy yet, just the steam version too, so don't have 2.0 or the Nevada modules. Do have the Fw-190 and BF-109 though, and the campaigns for the basic planes, A10, F15, Su27 and all that. Need a better joystick for the controls in that game though

>>698405272
The Ti 4200 was a pretty good card. You can play old shooters with high FPS. Like Quake 3 Arena, Jedi Knight 2, Return to Castle Wolfenstein etc. All better games then CoD btw :D

>>698410201
The ww2 planes seem like there not worth getting yet as there is nearly no content for them.

>>698410507
Yeah the F15 is my favourite one, the weapons/flight systems are more advanced than the Mig29, and the plane has higher performance. It's a blast the just go vertical off the runway and climb a few thousand feet.

The WWII planes are very difficult to fly, I don't enjoy them nearly as much, because I just don't have the time to put in to learn them properly

It's mediocre, but I'm too poor. I had some cash in 2011 that I don't have now, so I won't be building another computer anytime soon.

It's no enthusiast-tier rig, but with a single 1080p monitor I can easily play anything older than 2014 at 60fps on max settings. Right now I'm playing through MGS V, and I'm waiting on Skyrim Special Edition to come out since I'm eligible for a free copy. I'm also waiting for the prices of Doom and Dark Souls 3 to drop, and I'm vaguely interested in No Man's Sky but I can't see myself playing it for very long.

Don't really want to get a cpu from such an older generation and upgrading to a new cpu+mobo and os to get with it will cost more than a 1070.

I actually play very little games on it. Some racing games, mostly Rocket League with friends and lately I've been playing GTA V a bit again because I like the new stunts races. Then it's nice to have a PC that runs it at pretty much max settings in 1440p resolution.

The main reason I got such an expensive PC was in preparation for VR. Turns out the headsets are twice the money I was willing to spend on them, so I guess that didn't happen.

To be fair the CPU and RAM will probably last you a few more years as 8GB is still enough these days and a 4690 will bottleneck no game at all.

So you could theoretically pop in a GTX 1080 and run any game on max settings.

>>698420428
Why would you? Temperature doesn't matter at all as long as you don't go over the max the chips are designed for, which is like 90-100 C.

So far only GTA V asked for more than 8gig of RAM from my machine, and only very rarely. Depending on what you play/do, you might get around for a little more time, but then again, ddr3 ram will probably get more expensive as ddr4 becomes the standard.

>>698423557
Clean install is always best, but installing SSDs never gave me any trouble. SATA port on AHCI and you're good to go (assuming a SATA SSD which is the best price/value right now). Cloning software also comes with most new SSDs, in case you really don't want a clean install.

If it is a 4000 series i5 that you had to overclock in order to get 3.9, then it is a 4670k.

How well will I run Black Ops 3?
>>
>>698403885
why did u just buy a gpu, instead of swapping the entire pc?
>>
regarding >>698429413
should i go for a xeon instead? will i have advantages or disadvatages in Games if i buy an i5-4460 instead
>>
>>698431442
at what resolution? I can't imagine it will run very well, mobile gaming is never a good idea if you're asking me.

>>698417145

>>698417571
Like having an i7 is any different from having an i5 in gaming
>>
>>698431923
so then if the pc is so new, why did u swap anything?
>>
>>698431819
you should know you can not overclock a 2310.

>>698431720
I have an xeon e3-1231v3. I decided pro Xeon against i5, as it is more future-proof. The number of games that don't like Hyperthreading is ridiculously low, I've never run into one so far and then you could still turn HT off if it's necessary. So, assuming the same generation (Haswell) and comparable frequencies, I'd go for the Xeon.
