    Fallout 4 - War. War never changes.

    Yeah! That is the point I am making, dislike something, vote with your wallet(s). STEAM knew that apart from bad PR it would have quickly have affected their Summer Sale if the fallout was not contained in time. Which they did and the result is in front of you. The problem is the bridge in...

    Fallout 4 - War. War never changes.

    ^ No, it is a legit point, if this was either of the two enterprises I alluded to, they would have gone ahead regardless and when shit hit the ceiling would not know better than to shoot the messenger. Actually, NexusMODS is not a requirement, I am aware but for a newcomer it is a daunting...

    31-40k Gaming Rig for 35K .. comments invited

    ^ Do not recommend the Corsair VS series, Seasonic S12II 430W or better at the minimum. Also for the motherboard please go for a decent B85 based board. The GIGABYTE B85M-D3H or MSi H97M-G43. Also, how long do you want this PC to last you?

    Fallout 4 - War. War never changes.

    VALVe has pioneered a lot of stuff that is now considered basic on any digital repository of content, in-fact they deserve their current role better than any other of their competitors save maybe GoG. They started the digital revolution, literally, when they announced their 'radical' idea over...

    CPU/Mobo i3 4130 or fx 6300

    The MSi board has the optical out , I am not aware of who is going to give you after sales of the ASRock here and that is what concerns me.

    Fallout 4 - War. War never changes.

    ^ STEAM's de-facto grip on the PC market would have the idea more appealing plus easier to implement universally. Not everyone is aware of NexusMOD's and not everyone wants to have multiple accounts for just getting the basics sorted out. Also, you should not be surprised about the revenue...

    ^ Well, glad we could turn you around on that. =] Do not go for the ASRock board, look up these two models, MSi H97M-G43 GIGABYTE H97M-D3H Hope this helps. Cheers!

    CPU/Mobo i3 4130 or fx 6300

    ^ True but even the 750Ti is not going to last very long in the current desktop scenario. Well, if you want to break it down to that, let's assume that you are picking the Core i3, this is what you get, Decent day-to-day and gaming performance out of the box alongside a modest power draw. An...

    Fallout 4 - War. War never changes.

    They should have introduced a donate option instead of a purchase model. Or the publisher / developer should hold regular competitions / contests where the community is asked to pitch in with content that might be voted into the game after a BETA period. Some of the content developed or in...

    CPU/Mobo i3 4130 or fx 6300

    Swap out the AMD board for something better, the motherboard you have shortlisted is based on the now almost archaic 760G North Bridge + SB710 chipset. It will add its own layer of bottleneck in the set up. This is what I would recommend, not over-clocker friendly but that should not concern...

    Which new earphones should I buy? Are these genuine?

    BRAINWAVZ will give you a decent hardcase with the S1 and if you want to learn how to keep your IEM's in your pocket / bag / table / drawer without entangling, here is a lifehack worth learning,

    CPU/Mobo i3 4130 or fx 6300

    In that case go for the FX6300 and the best motherboard you can squeeze in for it. Preferably one based on the more recent A970 chipset.

    Which new earphones should I buy? Are these genuine?

    ^ I was not back on the forum in those days mate. Sorry. =[

    Which new earphones should I buy? Are these genuine?

    ^ Oh! Yes, these are metal build should be totally worth it. mp4nation had a sale where these went for half-price, I recommended them on another forum. Hope you enjoy them as well.

    CPU/Mobo i3 4130 or fx 6300

    ^ Neither, try to get a 4th Gen entry-level Core i5 (4430). The Intel Core i3's of the 4th Generation family are just not well priced enough to justify their performance. And AMD FX line, well the less said is better. Bulldozer as an architecture has failed in its objectives and seeing where...

    Which new earphones should I buy? Are these genuine?

    ^ Entry level IEM's definitely have a roll off with the bass swamping out the finer details and on higher end units you have to contend with the requirement of a sufficiently powerful source. You will have to juggle with your expectation(s) always although there would definitely be an IEM for...

    Which Is The Best Headphone (Rs. 1k to Rs. 3k) From Amongst ....

    ^ They are good value for money but fragile. I would not recommend them to anyone who is a bit rough with his personal belongings.

    Which new earphones should I buy? Are these genuine?

    ^ Nope, only used the BRAINWAVZ M1 / M5 here.

    Ghost Recon Wildlands

    ^ More than system requirements and optimisation jazz, I would like to ask what the actual game-play would be. Would be a military skinned Assassin's Creed and FarCry 3 mashup, would it be something that truly incorporates the Tom Clancy legacy? Yes, I know that legacy is mostly PMC's...
