    CloakedHalo reacted to MysticLTT in Experiences with non-techies   
    My experience as a non-techie from 10 years ago. 
    I got a single slot XFX GeForce 8800 GT Alpha Dog in a pre-built HP (no airflow, a single small fan on CPU) the card already hits near 100°C in FurMark, I'm thinking this is normal, starting to overclock, I remember trying to game at 104-106°C, basically, the motherboard got fried and that was the beginning of my custom PC building journey.

    .....and?
     
    What's wrong with the Windows Store? Both EA and Ubisoft now distribute their titles thorugh their own platform, but when Microsoft does it, everybody loses their minds. It's a Windows 10 exclusive anyway. I get it, you like Steam because of its features, but I'm sure MS will sooner or later make something similar to the exisiting platforms, with a social network, in-game overlay and achievements.

    I think what Microsoft will eventually do is transform Xbox into a store rather than a piece of hardware.
    So you will be able to buy an Xbox game through the windows store. This game can be played on Microsoft Windows PC or Xbox console.
     
    This will attempt to push gog, origin, steam, uplay etc to the sidelines... But if it's only their first party games then you cannot fault them. They have the right to only distribute via their store rather than paying cuts to gog and steam etc... Nobody can say that this is evil. The danger is when they start bribing other devs to get onto the windows store exclusively. These kind of bribes and cut-throat business so far have not happened on PC because Origin and Steam etc seem to conduct themselves in an ethical manner for the most part. But in the console world these backroom deals for exclusivity are commonplace.

    Why is this a surprise to anyone? Why would Microsoft pay the 30% Steam tax, when they can just not? This game is supposed to use XBox for windows thing, so savegames can be shared/updated between the Xbone and the Windows version.
     
    Either way, this game is DX12 exclusive anyways, so you already have everything you need for it in Win 10.

    Seriously though Rust is a really fun game to play with friends, but takes alot of space because of the constant couple hundred MB updates almost every day or two.

    I love how you talk all about how you went to X99, watercooled, etc. and then end it with "I think due to... me being a poor guy..." lol.

    Ok I was confused there because I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that they shared RAM or something like that. Probably just read it wrong, thank you.
