Having played both, there are some really nice quality of life changes in BG3 that will make this way better. Also Div 2 rules were weird.

Anything mini led with local dimming and HDR will be more than enough at a lower budget. Hisense has some pretty nice ones.
Check out rtings to get a general idea of features and their usefulness.
I feel like in comparison to Starfield, ES6 should be smaller and more compact which should alleviate a lot of the other complaints I’ve seen.
At this point the hype alone will sell it. There may be some apprehensive players since starfield, but I don’t think it’ll impact them too much.
Also elder scrolls being their big IP, they kind of don’t have the wiggle room to screw this up.
Congrats!
At this point I’d just say enjoy the new build.
Easy first steps. Enable the XMP profile in the bios to get the most out of your ram since ryzen is very sensitive to that.
Otherwise, I’d leave it as-is. Maybe grab 3DMark on sale ($5 or so) from steam and bench your system just to make sure you’re within expected results compared to others.
PBO for the cpu pretty much gets you 90% there on your max cpu overclock plus a little more voltage than you’d have with a manual one. The X3D cpus are really thick with the stacked cache so they do require decent cooling compared to non X3D skus. So it may just run a little warm but nothing crazy.
The big thing these days for gpu’s is undervolting. I’ve been able to cut out 50w or so from my 3080 with no discernible performance hit when coupled with my 5600x. Check out the Optimum YouTube channel (formerly Optimum Tech) on his undervolting results. His videos are a little older but are applicable to most gpus that are power hungry.
Not OP but Under Armor sells your shit instantly in my experience. I’ve got the same setup and just turn the address off after I get my order. I must have got forwarded 2-3 spam things a day before I killed it.
It’s going to make heavy based melee builds much less annoying.
My bad. It just seems like the low hanging fruit everyone plays off of.
We actually used to get vehicles close to this size. The Suzuki samurai (really a jimny) was sold here for a number of years. Geo sold a fair number of almost kei cars that Suzuki made.
I’m a fan of limiting them from interstate highways, but keeping them registrable. It’s just dumb they cite “safety” even though the law explicitly calls out they aren’t required to be safe. I just want a nice 25-45 mph city truck to lug dirty junk around.
But if anyone is curious, Douglas deBoard imported so many European cars in the 80’s that cut into the profits of Mercedes USA enough that they pushed the law through. Buying them in Europe and importing them was actually cheaper (in some aspects) than buying a US market one. And the imported cars were better equipped!
It wasn’t even about protecting American manufacturers or trucks. Mercedes has just always been a huge dick.
Doing comparisons like these don’t make sense when motorcycles and trikes exist.
I would assume the latter until proven otherwise. No doubt they hide that.
According to my iPhones privacy viewer it’s almost worse than Facebook.
I’d say out of the 30 things I’ve sold, I’ve only ever had problems 3 times. 1 was a car, 1 was a specific and expensive vehicle part, and another was a phone.
They were an absolute nightmare to sell. So many people agree on price/time/location and just never show up. I refuse to deal with any account that is newer than 3 years and doesn’t have at least some content on it.
It’s just not worth the hassle.
The leap is an excellent “mid range” one since a lot of these chairs can hit $2000 new.
Demons Souls being the exception that I can think of off the top of my head.
Also, you can buy replacement parts years afterwards further extending the life of the product.
I’ll take “Reasons to never drink again for $200, Alex.”
Haha I had to look it up, but that’s the definition of “innovation”. Literally taking something existing and making it better.
I guess it would be better to say they innovated the slate style phone. Android didn’t come out until 2008 and all other top phones used physical buttons. The iPhone technically only had 5 for general functions.
I remember the first keynote. Jobs kept repeating phrases like music player, web browser, and phone together like that. And then boom, he whipped out the first iPhone that was in his pocket the whole time. While there were similar devices at the time, nothing (to my knowledge) was all one package especially in an all touch device that small.
Forced update, they took too long to restart.
Sometimes the afflictions didn’t trigger properly like accidentally healing an enemy because decay was applied same turn etc. also turn order and initiative is impossible to predict. In a 4 person co-op game there must always be an alternating turn order regardless of number of players. So basically we’ve had players skipped for two whole rounds because the AI gets to go again. It’s fairly consistent in that regard. It’s frustrating because it’s usually a different person each session that just gets entirely skipped over for almost the entire fight.
And to be honest, I liked the action/bonus action mechanic as it makes the turns go faster. We just did a 4 player bg3 campaign earlier this year and the fights went way faster.
And the crafting mechanic has a high learning curve.
I did find the physical/magic armor mechanic different. I don’t have any real opinion either way with it.
