Bryt07: lol some games are on cds, but those are the AA games and most people really don't care about them, but the AAA games, aren't on dvdz, even if they are, it'll just contain an activation code, like skyrim for instance, u can check online  That's right o, Rise of The Tomb Raider hasn't got a physical copy,....RIP DVD! With Gears of War requiring 80GB and dual layer Blu-rays disc having a capacity of 50GB ..that won't be having a physical copy too...consoles will just have smaller texture packs to fit in. Does the Xbox One have a Blu-ray player? AFAIK the PS4 has it. |

I don't agree with the OP on this one. Your claim that PC games have now become inaccessible because of larger file sizes and requirements to be part of steam or origin is false. PC games are also available on DVD just like console games.
I agree though for gaming to improve power much be uninterrupted, this will drive everything else to exist. The transmission stations for reliable internet services need uninterrupted power supply.
Larger files can also mean that game devs new techniques to improve game image quality but it comes at a price. |

bertoseve: I see,just like a laptop with really noisy fans, i know that feeling...at the threshold of an inspirational idea breakthrough, one needs absolute silence , which i prefer to describe as absolute peace Haha! like that phrase "threshold of an inspirational idea"...but you get it |
Gaming › Re: Mini-ITX Gaming PC by AKBliv010(op): 9:05pm On Aug 18, 2016 |
bertoseve: Is it so much of an issue if the fans don't have zero-rpm mode? i think there are more salient properties to consider ,like efficiency maybe? It's a preference for a mini-itx system that will be placed of a desk. For a larger sized system placed underneath the table, I won't mind. The Corsair just like the silverstone is an 80+ Gold PSU so they are both efficient. |
Gaming › Re: Mini-ITX Gaming PC by AKBliv010(op): 8:52pm On Aug 18, 2016 |
Absolutely pissed off at the moment, this power supply doesn't have zero-rpm mode so the fan is always on...returning it and picking up one up the Corsair SFX 450W instead. When PC is idling, I like silence. I'll never recommend the silverstone SFX 450...hell no! |

I removed the Pro Gaming sticker on the motherboard PCH heatsink as I didn't like the red. It will mess up my color scheme of orange and black. I used a heat gun to remove the metal sticker and some isopropanol to soften the remain glue residue. The hoses that came with the original liquid cooler on the Fractal Design T12 were to long so I removed them and replaced them with fittings I already had. I had some clear tubing and thought I go for some orange coolant but decided to stick with black hoses instead...aww well...some mods for the future perhaps. Installed the liquid cooler and ran another boot test and it's all good  Booted into Windows 10 with idle temps at 32C was expecting better but I think the water loop hasn't bled properly.

Build Log - Day 2Processor arrived today  .. but before throwing everything into the case I like to do a quick boot test by connecting the core components and testing if the system boots. This will save a lot of heart ache if something was wrong, you won't have to tear down the whole build. There's always that moment when I think, what if it doesn't boot. Glad it booted, I can now commence with installing the components in the case. Yea, I see it too..the 'ketchup and mustard' cables...my braided sleeves arrive tomorrow so it's all get customised.

You'll also find 3-pin fans and 4-pin fans. With the right headers equipped on the motherboard the fan can be controlled by 3-pin(dc voltage controlled) or 4-pin (PWM) controlled. The different is the degree or levels of control available to the end user.
PWM - Pulse Width Modulation uses digital square wave pulses which can have the duty cycle varied. The duty cycle ( ratio of the period the pulse is ON and when it OFF) controls the amount of voltage applied to the fan unlike the case of DC control which is 5V, 7V or 12V.
In a nutshell, PWM can offer quieter fan operation and finer control
I'd always recommend PWM fans or use a PWM fan hub (more on this in my mini ITX build)

Gaming › Re: Why Are There No Game Developers In Nigeria? by AKBliv010(m): 6:51am On Aug 18, 2016 |
BituSoft: economy don develop their brains? All Nigeria parents do these days is just to tell their kids to become bankers, lawyers, doctors and engineers. If they see their children drawing: waste of time. Dancing: waste of time. I don't just know. Although my dad really supported my drawings. Look at the whites Facebook CEO(mark): His dad taught him to code at a young age(read his history on wiki) Justin Beiber: has been singing from a little age and his parents supported him Even Michael Jackson has been singing from a small age. Lionel Messi has been playing football from a small age and many others. And i can't see any nigerian forced to be a doctor or engineer being better than them. Haba! Doctors can save lives isn't that enough. I get your point though, some Nigerian parents aren't interested in what their children are interested in. It's a shame. |
Gaming › Re: Why Are There No Game Developers In Nigeria? by AKBliv010(m): 6:49am On Aug 18, 2016 |
BituSoft: Good day all. I just want to ask a question out of anger and pain. Why are their no game developers in Nigeria? I mean i will be 20 years old on july, since 2013, i have been trying to make my own game. As a result of this i have used many game engines namely: 3Drad, yoyo gameMaker, A3 game studio, coppercube, and am currently using unity. When ever i see Ninja theory team, EA, ubisoft games Activision games and even the indie game makers like team meat and others. I feel like crying, why am a Nigerian? No body wants to support me? Any of my 3D models that i upload on facebook, they only recieve 9 to 15 likes. But when a girl just upload a selfie, the photo gets upto eighty something likes. Nigeria is filled with talents. We can do something, lets just try. I know game making requires dedication, time and hardwork, i have been doing it for a long time now( Two to three years) just that i abandon the projects after sometime because of lack of encouragement. Boys only seams to be attracted to girls only. I am currently in the University studying Electrical and electronics engineering, a course i hate. And i am currently working on a 2D game. I know 3D modelling, rigging, animations and many others in blender. I struggle with creating textures in gimp, I know csharp fairly well. Here is one of my work. I feel you bro. reach out and build a team. You can't do it alone. I know these AAA games been developed wasnt done by one person. |

BUILD LOG - DAY 1
I prepared my work space. This is a 'ghetto' method here using a cardboard box to protect my desk from scratches while building. I proceeded by preparing the case (Silverstone FT-03 Mini) by removing the side panels and the external ports to get rid of loose wiring, then installed the I/O shield on the the case. Finally, I installed the M.2 SSD as that needs to be mounted behind the motherboard.
I expect my processor to arrive tomorrow as I need that to carry on.

Nihilist: I have a PS4 for regular gaming needs. I like that, best of both worlds. I get the feeling if one has the funds why not go for both. Judging from OP's title he doesn't seem to have an issue getting a high end gaming laptop so why advise a PS4 when you have both? With a £1000 could have built you one with a GTX 1070 in it. |
Gaming › Re: Ps4 Console Vs Gaming Laptop-high End by AKBliv010(m): 4:20pm On Aug 17, 2016 |
Nihilist: Gaming laptops are ridiculously expensive.
I just picked a HP Omen last week for just over 1000 Pounds. That's with 16gb DDR4 Ram and an Nvidia GTX965M card.
I really wanted the 980M card as that would be future proof, but I didn't think the extra 400 pounds outlay was good value for money, as I only play FM and Total War on my laptop anyway.
I would advise you to go for a PS4. Used games are easily available and affordable, and you can keep up with the latest games while enjoying decent graphical fidelity. I'd like to know why you got a laptop rather than 3 - 4 PS4's that can be put in each bedroom of your house. Lol...no seriously why a laptop not a console. It's a bit ironic. |

hakinze00: Konami weren’t lying that the Metal Gear franchise was dead for consoles and PC. The publisher has announced its releasing a new game called Metal Gear Survive.
Revealed exclusively on IGN, Metal Gear Survive will be a stealth video game releasing on PC, PS4 and Xbox One in 2017. It’s a 4 player co-op stealth video game which means multiplayer will be a big factor.
The game is set after the events of Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes where members of the Militaires Sans Frontières who survived the game’s ending are transported to an alternative universe. In this alternate universe, they have to fight off “a force of crystalline zombies” as well as at least one Metal Gear machine. Made me chuckle...MG Survive to raise it from the dead! |

Lana1: Na wetin dey always annoy me be this. Even look at those minimum specs sef. 
And Nvidia, AMD and Intel wont even help the struggle by making components cheaper. Let them eat their game. I'm sure the game won't be well optimized. And i can bet those ideal specs wont even render the game in 4k at 60fps. Under DX12 it might you know. AMD cards with the GCN 1.1 architecture and above have seen a boost in performance using the new API, Nvidia not so much as only the Pascal architecture has support for Async Compute. The previous Gears of war that flopped big time had a DX12 patch, the new GOW is built up from scratch so will have better optimisation, but that's just a guess. I'll keep an eye on the new DX12 titles coming. It will give a better indication how the high-end cards will perform. |
