Bioshock Infinite was also good imo.

I loved bioshock. I used to play it all the time in college. I wasn’t too big on the other two games although 3 was decent.

I saw this video and was like, NOPE. I really wanna see how the AMD cards compare in size. A part of me wants to support Intel's efforts and get an ARC card.

The PS5 comparison... XD
I ordered a GPU not a PSU!!!!

Im looking forward to someone making an SFF PC using a GTX 4090 as its case.

But only if the GTX 4090 is the functioning video card for the build.

So all of the 4090 reviews are out and honestly, I'm not gonna bother watching them. I just can't support Nvidia plus it will be utterly useless without an insanely large case.

IF only they still worked with SLI/Multi-GPU.

I'd buy as much as I possibly can and try to build a tiny home with them, like using bricks!. It might actually be cheaper than buying an actual house!
If they SLI'd together you could have the ultimate Gaming rig, home AND heating system!

So I fired up my gaming system the other day and got a "CPU Fan Error" message. I haven't touched my system in years so what's up with this? I thought.

I followed the instructions to hit F1 and went into the BIOS. I then hit F7 to go to the simplified menu and there I saw a graphic showing all the fans turning with their indicated RPM. Both the main and axu. CPU fans were not moving. I clicked on "Manual Fan Settings" and then set them to high. Back to the F7 screen and the CPU Fan was now spinning at about 750 RPM's
I hit F10 to save and exit and finished the boot. However, after boot-up I was missing many of my toolbar icons. So, I did a soft boot, (Restart) and everything seemed to work except I couldn't log into anything, view pages or anything. I kept getting a Date/time code error. I checked and sure enough the clock said 11:00 am Jan. 01, 2006. Reset the clock via the internet and everything worked for the rest of the day.

Next day, same thing. So that's when I got it, my CMOS battery must be dead. That meant undoing all the cables and digging out the case from under the desk. Then I learned that I had to disassemble part of the system to get at the stupid battery located under the GTX 980 graphics card. A card that is held in by three hard to reach screws and locked into the slot by a plastic release leaver that's near impossible to get at.

I had to drive 35klm's into the big city to get a CR2032 only to find out that they come in a six pack. This last one had been going for six years so who knows if I'll ever need another. Good thing they were only 10 bucks.

Man, I haven't had a battery go out in probably 20 years. I'm not sure I would have even thought of it. Well, I probably would have when I got the date/time prompt.

I have a computer that had been turned off for 4 years that I recently turned back on to use in the arcade build I talked about above. It started right up, no battery issues.
