I probably could have gone a bit longer with my 1080 but oh well

Pulled the trigger on Forza Horizon 4. Initial thoughts, so far the game is very fun, I can totally see how missions will start overlapping on each other to the point that selecting a new mission will be kind of a nuisance. I went from a Focus RS to a Lancia Delta (Group B Edition) and it made the game a little more enjoyable. I like to power slide on turns instead of having a little under-steer like the RS does. I like the ability to tune your vehicle before a race and the extensive performance upgrades which I think Need For Speed lost over the years. I wish I had a racing wheel to make the game a little more enjoyable. The only thing that kind of bugs me is the sort of generic sound vehicles make, which in contrast I think NFS nails almost every game. The character freaks me out a little, it has a very weird smile all the time. The scenery is beautiful. I can see how NFS Payback and Heat have taken some concepts from Forza but have yet to deliver solid results.

So I did something a bit odd. I ordered a Ryzen 5 5600x and a B550i to replace my Ryzen 9 5900x and X570i. I know this sounds a bit odd, but I want to experiment with overclocking as well as the fact all I do is school and gaming. So most of the cores of the R9 are being neglected. Also with the performance of the 5600x, it's a hell of a bargain.

I have the same one and its a dream. Great thing you were able to get one because they are very rare, but more accessible than a damn 3060ti GPU

I debated putting it off. After I bought mine, they were all sold out. So I got lucky!

When I first got mine I had gotten the 5600, instead of the 5600X, I was so happy thinking to myself how easy it was to get it. Until later I realized I bought the wrong one, then I realized how difficult was to get one. I got by chance really, was refreshing my cart for a 3060ti drop when the Add to Cart for the 5600X enabled. Bought it twice, one of them was broken when I first built the PC. So I got extremely lucky haha.

I almost made that mistake too! I found one and was thinking, woah, this is super cheap even for the price gouging. Come to find out it was the 3600x lol. That was a close call as I as about to press buy.

Want.
It sounds like the game will have more a meaningful choice tree than CP2077 (which wouldn't be difficult).
