Is this a waste of money? The gpu is still more than decent for 1080p gaming but recently titles that I wanted to play such as the new Indy game and the upcoming Doom don't even allow my rx 5700 to boot up the game at all. I suspect it will happen more frequently in the future.

I don't plan for general upgrade in the near future(either a better cpu or a 1440p monitor) so I was thinking of spending 300-350 dollars just to solve this problem and wait for another 3-4 years for the new gen for a proper upgrade.

My cpu is just a Ryzen 5 3600 and I don't mind if it's holding me back a little on a few titles in case the newer gpu is way more powerful.

I was thinking about a 3060 12gb, 4060 8g

I want to put a cap in the Global Settings at 71 fps because of my 72hz freesync monitor. I did that for years but I just bought an Oculus Rift s and a RX 5700(upgrade from R9 380) so since I'm new to VR and this extra gpu power I'm not sure if I mess something with this setting.

So my question is the following. Does this have any effect on Vr applications and games from both the oculus store and steamVR?

I'm probably asking something really stupid since I can't find anything similar with google.

Sorry in advance and thanks. :p

It is intended for gaming at 1080p 60-72fps ultra. My Budget is 350-400€ I'm buying from Europe and from Amazon(de,fr,uk,it,es) preferably.

My PSU is a Coolermaster B600w 80 Plus White so I won't be able or willing to overclock any parts. So the new CPU has to run at stock clocks with the stock cooler. It's just has to be strong enough for a not overclocked RX 5700.

I think a 3600 at 200-210€ is a great buy but I'm a bit worried with the bios flashback problems I'm keep reading lately.

I want to upgrade my r9 380 and I'm between those two models(3 brands) at near the same price(290-310€).

I like the 2060 more because it's less power hungry, a newer model and I guess less noisy, despite the "crappier" brand I can buy, but I don't know if it supports the freecync feature with my Samsung C27F591FD.

I read that the new RTXs started supporting this feature with a recent driver but it's not 100% certain. I tried to ask in the Samsung forums but the place seemed a bit empty and hard to navigate to me.

Do you think those cards are overkill for gaming at 1080p 60-72 fps excusively? I am not going to buy a new monitor anytime soon. Should I spend way less and buy a 580/590 or

Hi guys. I recently came back to HS after a long hiatus and currently I'm farming gold(daily quests/ranked games) for the upcoming Karazhan adventure. I've completed in the past the Blackrock Mountain and Naxrammas but the League of Explorers and the Whispers of the Old Gods parts are untouched atm.

I don't think it's a good idea to spend gold for the LoE but I'm not sure if the same stands for the free C-Thun cards you get when you open the first WotOG card pack after an arena run. I missed the offer of the 13 packs...

I don't want to spend real money atm and I don't think I can successfully farm through arena in my current lvl of play.

So in a few words should I spend 100g for a ba

Great series overall!

I had a few problems in the beginning with the strange(unrealistic) behavior of most of the people like for example the total absence of the concept of rape/sexual assault in their minds even from the pirates but quickly understood that many of the usual human reactions had been somehow magically removed from their minds. Jealousy is also rare but Searlaef showed some for Joret though. Generally magic is very weird in this series for the readers but not at all for the characters who find spells like the "Disappearance", "Waste spell" and "Birth spell" quite normal and never question them. I really looking forward to find out more about that.

I am about to finish the

I like this kind of characters and I want a story with a strong romantic element inside. The most common type I think is "soldier from Iraq comes back with PTSD/crippled/change of character and stuggles to continue his life until he meets someone". I don't mind if it's simplified like that as long as it's not completely trash romance. Great characterization is the most important consideration. Something simiral in historical fiction would be awesome . Some "badassery" from the hero it is also very welcome. I don't mind fantastic elements as long as it doesn't belong to paranormal fantasy. No problem with the amount of sex/profanity/violence etc.

Does that kind of story belongs to a sp

My knowledge of the history of China is very limited and I have almost no idea of how people even looked in that period (the novel is based around 1300ad I think) or the kind of buildings they were using in a poor village, like the one the novel starts off, or in the big cities..

As you can imagine I'm really struggling since the only asian culture I can use to make a working image in my mind is that of Feudal Japan something I'm really sure is far from the reality.

Do you know any movies or documentaries that I could use as an example?

I had the same problem with Under Heaven but I let it go that time and I think that was the main reason I didn't like it as the rest of Key's novels.

I read the first three trilogies (Farseer, Liveship Traders, Tawny Man) in the past and loved them but I only managed to finish the first of the Rain Wild Chronicles couple of years ago and couldn't continue with the rest..

What do you thing about him? Is he ready for a comeback after his injuries or his career is really over?

OK I need a Gavriel Guy Kay expert here because my questions are very specific and about details that most of the readers will probably miss/pass or forget after a while.

• What did Rustem notice in Gisel at Kasia's Wedding party in Shirin's home that made him gasp?

I know it probably had something to do with Gisel's seduction of Leontes a few pages later but still I'm not sure.

• What exactly Leontes likes to do with a pillow? Stylliane mentions it a couple of times on Crispin and Leontes also does it with Gisel. Is it something weirder than I think?

• I know that it's Gisel decision to sleep with him...

*Knew what she was doing. Had no idea what it might achieve. Something in pla

Ok. A few weeks ago I picked the audio version of this series and I listened to the first 2 books even though I've never been a fan of Urban Fantasy. Anyway the narrator was awesome, I liked Harry and Bob, I endured the highschool humor of the book but generally I wasn't impressed at all with the world(old Chicago) and its usual kind of monsters(Vampires,Werewolfs etc) and especially the forgettable stand-alone stories of each book. In a few words it was too "light-read" for my taste and I got tired in the middle of the second book. I know it's supposed to improve after the first few books but I need more assurance.

How many more mediocre stand alone books before we finally begin the grea

I want to pick this series for quite some time now even if I am aware that she writes slower than Martin but I don't want to be stuck on a heavy cliffhanger. I 've read the recent news about the 5th novel which will probably come out in 2015 but I really don't want to risk it. Does anyone have a good stopping point to propose like the second book or the third or it is safe to read them all and just wait for the rest to come out in the next decade or so?

So I ve finally decided to pick this monstrous series but since it's more than average complex and I can not read it in my native language I ve looked for some spoiler-free help. When I finished the prologue and the first chapter I went to the infamous Tor's re-read to check out the Chapter summaries and Amanda's newbie commentary ignoring ofcourse all the rest(Bill's and reader comments) but I've found out that the Chapter summaries are not completely spoiler-free.An example is the Brigdeburner Commander of the prologue. While he remains nameless in the book so far, Tor's summary ignores that and gives his true name spoiler anyway. I probably could have learned his name
