    I have it and consider it a good deal. Of course the newest of the newest isn't on there, but I find older games on there all the time which are fun, but never got around to buying or were not my usual genre.
    Its a good solution if you are always looking for something new to play and get bored quickly - without spending a ton a cash for buying the full game which you might not like in the end.

    USB WiFI sucks. PCI express is much better. I dont really have recommendations, though TPLink and ASUS seem to be fine choices. If you have Coax in both locations you can look at MOCA, which  uses Coax. It seems to be a better standard from what I read. While you could try Powerline adapters, it really will depends on the quality of the wiring in your house and how many circuit breakers you need to pass thru.

    I paid for it annually. $30 a year is a steal since I haven't played most of the current list of games.

    it depend on the games that you like to play. if you like just one game that is on origin access it probably isn't. if you like most of the games there it will be worth it

    Hahaha, I've got a Core i5-2430M, 8Gb ram, and a GT 540M. Before that, it was a Core i3-330M, 4Gb ram, and iGPU. It's one of my favorite games actually, I like the open world and the voxel graphics.

    To be honest, I won't need an upgrade from a 780 for quite a while, the games I play don't even take full advantage of its power haha. Although that does mean I can play Minecraft with higher video settings and Shaders at a solid 60fps...

    I personally wouldn't get a 3gb 1060, I would spend the extra for a 6gb one. I personally feel like 4GB is the lowest amount of GDDR5 a gpu should have if its a newer card.

    Certainly better than console experience even if you turn it into a console connecting to the TV + gamepad
     
    The pricing was excellent, I am all for second hand deals myself I actually got my 1080 Ti from this now closed rendering office that was on the same floor of my work building, paid only 580 dollars on a literally 1 month used FE 1080 Ti by EVGA with full warranty by them yet... totally scored! :3
     
    I really hope you can enjoy some quality game time now, cheers!

    If you are looking at price point and don't care about sound, there isn't any point for a closed loop system. If I had the money, and time. . . oh boy would I get one. lol

    I like the game, but for PC, it lacks in the social aspect. I play by my self a lot. Mainly because one of my brothers, and most friend play on xbox or PS4. My two other brothers play PC, but he works a lot and doesn't have much time, and the other one hasn't bought a gpu yet because of his buget. Bungie disabled a lot of social communication on DS2 because they thing PC players are toxic. You have to enable whispering on your account and the people you whisper have to have it enabled too in order to talk to strangers. You have to be in a group (in a fire team or friend on Bnet) to talk to people. There is no opt-in for playing with social chat when in a 4v4 game.

    Oh please... been trying to convince my boyfriend to move on from his GTX 770 and he's just like "it's fine enough still" damn these console minded people!
     
    Honestly though given how so much more efficient the newest Pascal cards I'd still try purchasing a GTX 1060 3gb above any Kepler or Fermi card... but as far this build goes it is all fine as is.

    He bought me the game for my B-day, so I didn't pay for it. so for a technically free game it's been running great. this game was made to run very well on different systems. 
    Here is an interview about how the game is made to properly scale. so everything should look the same from 480p to 4k.

    I gave my brother my Evga GTX 760 4GB card when I made the mistake of buying the reference GTX 970. He and I play Destiny 2. I play at 1440p and him at 1080p. Its been a great card.

    Excellent build! It makes me happy to see people running older cards like the 700-series, I feel like they're too underrated with everything new coming out.

    Last night my parts came in (GTX 760, more ram) And the preformence jump is insane, I originally could not play For Honor at all, it hit like 40 fps with drops, now I can play on 1440p high settings no problem. Doom Runs Maxed Out, Rainbow six Seige runs at high settings 90fps, Fallout 4 runs high settings 60-70 fps. This is all on 1080p, I used to play 720p but Now I don't have to! I love PC Gaming So Much with all these cheap upgrades that make my PC last longer. I will be upgrading my CPU/MOBO/RAM next year. I can finally buy games like prey, Assassins Creed.

    Yep. I have a 980 Ti, which is still a dope card, and a 660 on the way, which should be pretty awesome for my secondary rig as well. 
     
    Noice. And yeah, most old cards are fine, and Destiny 2 especially seems to be well optimized:

    I am very happy, After a long time of waiting for deals and finding used parts, I am almost done with my building my gaming pc. Well, I am done and can use it as soon as my parts get here. I upgraded from 4gb ram to 8. And from a GTX 460 to a GTX 780. It is pretty much using all 600 watts since the 780 is power supply eater. But I am happy, I can play fallout 4 and Destiny 2 and every game I want. My Goal was a pc that can play games at 720p 60fps. The CPU/MOBO/HARDRIVE and 4gb of the ram where given to me free from a family member that got a free pc from his friend. 
    What do you guys think?
    I can finally stop paying 60 bucks for PSN.
