  1. Please do this If it still reboot or crash after you've disabled the GPU in device manager then the problem is probably not GPU.
  2. I heard MWII gunplay is good unlike previous one. No offline play? I think you can. Of course, it's a different game with different look and gameplay but it still a city planner. You want Cities Skyline to copy Anno gameplay and mechanics? Why? Also Cities Skyline is a better game compare to Anno 2070 imo. Also i can't wait for Manor Lords, I've played the demo and really liked it. I've been waiting for Banished successor-ish and this game might be it. Dying Light 2 is a better game compare to Arkham City imo. Open world, survival, beat em up with crafting. Combat feels nicer as well, unlike Arkham series almost QTE-ish combat. I take Prototype/Prototype 2 any day over Arkham. Skyrim is on the league of it's own, that's why 10 years later we still have a new release of the same game on different consoles. From that list, Skyrim is the only game that makes my mind blown. I think only Elden Ring is similar level to that nowadays. Current list also have more variations compare to 2011 list. Revelation and Arkham is similar genre with similar combat. Bully and Saint Rows also similar genre/style. Nah, Fifa series will always be in Top5/10 in new release especially when it's the same year as World Cup competition like this year.
  3. Because around 2011 publisher and dev found out that you can either rehash game over and over or make it a live service for many many years with micro transactions, or both. Also from your list not much have changed. 1. You have COD in both year. 2. You still have town/city planner (Anno 2070 vs Cities Skylines) 3. You still have single player RPG(Skyrim, Batman vs Dying Light) 4. If Fifa is available on Steam back in 2011 I'm sure it will be in the top seller list as well. And no that 2011 list is not the best year in history of gaming.
  4. Check if your CPU/GPU is pinned at 100% and at max clock speed.
  5. TL;DR I had similar problem many years ago. Turns out my SSD was the problem even when all diagnostic software show the SSD is all good. I swapped to different SSD and it didn't happen anymore.
  6. Try go into Device Manager and disable your GPU, then complete the update. Also open Task Manager and double check your RAM speed.
  7. From what I've read online, Oculus own streaming app look worse on AMD because it use x264 which is inferior compare to Nvidia but if you buy Virtual Desktop app and use HEVC to stream both will look the same. I myself not a fan of Oculus app, it use more resources compare to Virtual Desktop.
  8. One Finger Death Punch 2- It's a 2 fingers game(or 1 if you're up for a challenge). Each round is fairly short early on but gradually gets longer near the end. Try the Survival Tower mode once you're familiar with the game mechanics. Magicka 1/2 - You're a wizard and have 8 elements(+ 3 subs elements) to conjure so you can create different spells that work best for the enemies in front of you. There's 3 types of magic you can do, 1. projectile/beam/sprays/arc, 2. shield/armor, 3. weapon buff that you can play with. Along the way you'll learn some unique spells that need certain combinations to activate. The game have 4 coop support but totally playable solo. The more player you have, the more havoc it will create because you cannot turn off friendly fire and AOE is a thing. Trine 2 - A puzzle game. You have control for 3 characters that you can switch between them anytime in the game. A thief, a mage and a warrior. Each have their own pros/cons that you need to use to move through each levels.
  9. Before i forgot.. 1. Been daily driving Linux since 3 years ago. I still dual boot though because I need a fast android emulator but over 90% of my time on PC was on Linux. 2. I got bored with the changes they make and didn't make. 3. Desktop : i7-3770, 16GB DDR3, GTX 980 Ti, DS4 controller, Logitech G27, Brother DCP-J105. Laptop : i7-2630qm, 8GB DDR3, HD6770M Office : i3-3220, 8GB DDR3, GT640 4. I've been using Linux for over 10 years starting with Ubuntu Hardy Heron(iinm), then i jumped to lot of distros until I found #CrunchBang and continue to use it until the development slowed down/halted. The switch didn't stay because of gaming support is almost non-existent back then so Linux was more like a backup OS for me in-case Windows shit it self. Then when i heard about DXVK and Proton back in 2019, I give Linux another try. Tried several distros (PopOS!, Fedora, Arch, Manjaro) and ultimately stick with KDE Manjaro because it's rock stable and feel more user friendly for me. For like half a year after the switch I still mostly boot into Windows because some games I play still can't run properly but when Proton and DXVK get better and better each update, I'm found myself gradually booting less into Windows. Now I only boot into windows if i want to play Android game which is very rarely these days. 5. KDE on my desktop. i3 on laptop and office desktop.
  10. His Steam credentials/pc probably compromised. I suggest totally nuke Steam + leftovers and reinstall it.
  11. If you need something like OptiX for work, Nvidia RTX is the only way to go. Else the Radeon wins in those all price points imo. RT for gaming is still not a major consideration for me because the game that offer RT is personally either lackluster in gameplay or in the visual improvement with RT enabled.
  12. For 1080p60, that's good enough/barely passable. You can try hunt RX6600 or RTX 3050 if it 40% cheaper than the former.

    RTX 3080

    Check Task Manager why was it so high. Close everything when you run the benchmark.

    RTX 3080

    Can you run Userbench and share the result link?
  15. Stop torturing yourself. Use borderless mode.
  16. Things like this makes me angry. Is this old news?
  17. Reading the metadata i guess. Set your folder as general instead of media if you hate it.
  18. Oh.. your GT730 is Fermi base, not Kepler base. That's why you cannot use 4xx.xx driver.
  19. Been watching him since 2015/2016. From living in his parent's shed, casually playing racing games, to this and much more.
  20. Guild Wars 2, exploring Tyria with your dad would be an awesome experience. Base game is free. You can teleport to all 4 starter maps so you don't need to select the same race as your dad if you don't feel like it. He can be a noble Norn while you can be a filthy Charr.
  21. Owh, my bad. I didn't notice it's already been posted.
