I have many of this list either already in my game library, or on my wishlists... It's a good list.

Nice. I shall be looking through the list, and giving many a try once my RX 5700 XT gets here tomorrow.

Conan Exiles really isn't an MMO... It's an RPG survival game, with most of the focus being on survival.

I dunno why, but the AI in The Division 2 seems quite good... Different types of AI for different types of NPC. Civlians are extremely conservative and hide in cover almost exclusively. Melee drug-hyped NPCs just rush right up to you. Melee with shields tend to weave through knee-high or higher cover to protect their legs until they get to you. Melee tanks just run right for you and murderize you, even at the lowest difficulty level. Archery snipers use cover, and only pop their heads up to acquire you and fire. Gun snipers use cover and snipe or use abilities, and will run away if you get too close. They also tend to move from cover to cover after shooting. Grenadiers tend to stay within throwing distance, and will hide in cover until about the time the grenade explodes, then fire and move cover. Assault-type varies based on faction, but tends to get more reckless the lower your health percentage compared to theirs. (like walking instead of running, out of cover towards your position, but runs back to cover if you heal and fire at them) Flamethrower-type guys use cover to get near you, then just suppress you until you die. (this includes riot foam guys) LMG guys just overwhelm you with bullets. They use suppressing fire, cover, and even prone firing positions. Once their armor is gon, they use cover pretty exclusively.

5700 XT

Bladerunner takes place in the same universe as Soldier (1998)... FYI...

The noise shouldn't really be a problem if you can get ahold of acoustic foam. Make a small muffler for the exhaust, and muffle the interior of the case, and you're good. As for it overheating, that's because the default profile has the fan locked to 2100RPM, (max is 4700 or so) so with the muffling it should be able to do 2600 easy without much issue... (and that will easily cool it to safe temps) Also undervolting helps a lot. Since I've seen several reviews that actually test the fan noise, I can safely say it's NOT as bad as most reviewers make it out to be. If you're comfortable with a desk fan at low speeds anywhere in your room, the card shouldn't be an issue at all. 3rd Gen Ryzen is epic... The 9 is actually officially the best CPU on the planet right now. https://www.cpubenchmark.net/high_end_cpus.html

Well, considering I'm wanting to have high framerates at a lower price than $1000 as soon as possible, and because I actually have the money now, (got paid for housesitting for my sister) I have decided on a 5700 XT. Planning on getting it, and then at next paycheck getting the Arctic Accelero Twin Turbo II, because the stock blower is definitely not going to be as good, and the aftermarket cooler is only $40. (about what would be tacked on from a partner manufacturer for their aftermarket stuff) This will effectively give me my first ever system that has a chance of being CPU-bound in a primarily GPU intensive game. (that will go away in ~6 months though, when I get a Ryzen 5 3600)

? I'm too tired for this shirt... ? So tired it hurts! ?

I remember that picture! I'm doing just fine thank you! (being the redshirt hasn't hurt me so far)

It might be trying, but it's failing.

Now that I can play movies at higher then 720p at full framerate, I find I'm running out of drive storage space much faster than before...

I'll have you know, that eye patch is only for show!

That AI is copywritten by Warner Bros.... You really think they would just let anyone use it?

Because copyright.

Trying to avoid a headache.

Problem is, the battery life degrades way too fast. You can't use the same $5000 battery for 20 years and expect to go more than a half a mile on a charge.

Wait, it isn't a GIF? Why is it moving then?

Space Rogue, Original War, & Survivalist.

Civ 5. Giving a go at playing a map until completion for the first time...

Sounds like you'd be better off playing in a VM...

EA can send as many C&D as they want, it's not illegal for them to keep on making these games function again.

Looks more like "stand behind barricade and shoot waves of zombies" than it does "walk around shooting and looting, despite zombies".

Not bad! The lines between the teeth seem just a little wider than reality, but you can clearly tell who it is.
