But thanks for the help guys. I think I'm ready to get this going

Yep, that's perfect. Don't forget to enable A-XMP (could be called DOCP instead) in your BIOS to make sure it's running at the advertised speed.

Would this work too? It looks pretty much the same specs wise but it had way more reviews so I trust it a bit better, the top review on the one I linked before said it caused him memory corruption issues.

At the bottom in the comparison it says the RAM memory technology is "DDR3 2133, DDR3 2133" even though everything else on the page says DDR4 so I'm a bit worried

So something like that? It's about the same price as what I had picked out before.

Congrats Black Turtle!

Yeah I have a acer predator xb241h. 144hz and has gsync enabled through DP

I have been researching all day though and pretty much came to the same conclusion that I would have to do a full rebuild at this point. This is what I've put together so far, trying to stay around 1k. let me know what you think:

grrr this first restricted challenge with Seven just won't S

I took my A and left happily. You get the costume parts for an A in the restricted challenge, you only need S for the free ones

And I checked my motherboard which is a z87 pro. So my system specs are:

Motherboard: Asus Z87-Pro
CPU: i5-4590 3.30ghz
GPU: Nvidia GTX 960
RAM: 16GB DDR3

Intel has been using the i5 designation for 10 years, that doesn't give enough information.

In the windows search bar, type dxdiag and it will show your exact processor model, which will reveal its age and what is compatible with your motherboard.

I don't know enough to help beyond that, but I know that information will be needed to give a better assessment.

It's an i5-4590

Congrats Black Turtle!

I currently have a i5 3.3ghz and a gtx 960 which are probably a little underpowered for what 2077 will be bringing to the table, but I also don't really want to get it for ps4 or wait for the ps5 so it seems like I'll have to upgrade my PC. But I don't really know how to go about the process. How do I know what processors/gpus will be compatible with my motherboard? Would it be best to just start from scratch and build something all new? I have 16 gb of ram but it's DDR3, do I have to go to DDR4 if I'm going to be upgrading everything else?

The Distant Fingertip on the Fallen Arm is the kind of moment that justifies the entire open-world genre. Can't think of a better singular moment.

I didn't think I could get nausea from a video game, but here we are

My first thought was KOS-MOS but that's definitely not accurate. Tifa all the way

Congrats Black Turtle!

My company thankfully sticks to audio-only meetings, so I guess I can't really answer the main question, but I haven't had any major problems with them

Congrats Black Turtle!

From my experience the autosave kicks in after going to a new area. Not sure when else it will trigger

Future Connected done

Goodbye again Xenoblade :(

Hopefully Monolith Soft doesn't take long to announce whatever their next project is.

It's supposed to be a medieval thing from what I saw. So it'll be a pretty big departure from what they're known for

---

Congrats Black Turtle!

Well for only $16 thats a steal. I got it for free with my gold points. I'll check it out when I'm done with Xenoblade DE

Congrats Black Turtle!

So this is like 428 Shibuya Scramble?

NG+ is hilarious as they do not gate anything at all, so it leads to bizarre story/gameplay clashes.

Like that?

Congrats Black Turtle!

XCX definitely deserves a second chance. Rip WiiU games :(

Congrats Black Turtle!

Always a great day when a Mii gets last place.

I dont know what that is but Future Connected looks awful

My credit score is great thank you

I mean, has it gone to collections yet?

I got a kidney stone removed when I was broke after college and never paid the bill. My credit score jumped up 100 points just this April because it finally left my credit record. I think it was something like 5 years?

---

Congrats Black Turtle!

I think the perlers and stuff are pretty overplayed at this point, but the dioramas you posted earlier are pretty interesting. If you want to make money off video game art I think there's definitely a market but I'd recommend racking your brain and making something more unique

Congrats Black Turtle!

I like the melia outfit

sidenote, how does that work in this game? I thought there was no way to check if you'd beaten a unique or not

I used universal media server to stream wirelessly. Worked pretty simply for me

And Future Connected finished after around 7 hours. Its...not great. Except for the Ponspectors.

Thats disappointing to hear. I was waiting to play it until after I beat the game again since it's been so long. But I think the general reaction has been pretty middling.
Unfortunate since Torna was such a smash hit. Oh well, Melia is my girl so I'm sure I'll still get some enjoyment out of it

Congrats Black Turtle!

Damn I almost had my first perfect division. Zero suit just had to choke

Finished the main story, now I guess I have to do some grinding before I can take on any of these quests involving Lv90+ monsters. (my team is only 83-84 and can barely land a single hit on those guys)

Do rank 1 and 2 stones have any purpose? I never really got good at the whole gem thing

KamikazePotato posted...

I've been leveling up affinity evenly across the board and not sticking to any one party so I'm not expecting a big grind. Finishing up Alcamoth and everyone is over halfway there already.

Yeah I was running a static party for most of my playthrough so far (only at Sword Valley though) but decided to make it easier on myself later on and started switching it up while grinding Valar mountain. I think I'll switch back to the static for boss fights though, because it's more fun that way

---

Congrats Black Turtle!

Man, I forgot how great TWEWY was until I read your writeup. That game was truly a masterpiece of it's time. I think if I ever made a list like this I would have to include it higher up then that

---

Congrats Black Turtle!

I like playing as all the DLC sometimes. Piranha Plant is probably the most boring to me, I rarely use them. But then it's something like Joker > Banjo > Byleth > Hero > Terry

---

Congrats Black Turtle!

That writeup made me realize I've never seen docs final smash in my life

---

Congrats Black Turtle!

As someone who has spent the majority of their life dedicated to this franchise, I have only the mildest amount of interest possible. Playing a new character is always fun for a bit, but I couldn't care less about this franchise, and I'm worried that this character could be really, really stupid competitively if it's actually faithful to it's base game, so I really hope they are really bad for my sake

---

Congrats Black Turtle!

Shine you never played torna? That's surprising. It's actually really good, better than the base game in a lot of ways

---

Congrats Black Turtle!

I think you did a good job. Hero is borderline anyway

---

Congrats Black Turtle!

Damn I wanted to pick Ganon but I was trying to have faith in the dark horse . never again

---

Congrats Black Turtle!

Casual mode in most RPGs is "A baby could drool on the controller and make it to the end of the game" mode. For people that just want to see the story, I guess

---

Congrats Black Turtle!

You can get extra AP from Riki's skill that let's his Yoink steal AP. It's a pretty decent amount of AP too
