  1. That's interesting, as I've heard a few people say that codies have shared too much about the game and kinda spoiled it. I haven't completed enough of DiRT Rally yet (which was pretty insane with the Oculus Rift) so I'll probably pass on this for a while.
  2. Fridge, microwave, vacuum cleaner, and another TV (smaller version of my current Sony Android TV) purchased today. In the middle of moving everything over.
  3. Cheesy story but intriguing. Las Vegas sounds a bit boring but perhaps they've included some of the surrounding mountainous areas. For some reason this reminds me of NFS Undercover and NFS The Run. SMS were rumoured to have recently signed a deal to make an action racing game (many presumed along the lines of Fast and Furious) as well so I wonder how they're feeling.
  4. I've got to be honest, from the thumbnail I thought they were MX5's or Fiats. :fp:
  5. Yes I'm up sticks'ing. Found a unit a few suburbs away closer to friends, etc which is where I spend most of my weekends. Will be good to be able to have people over (can't do it much here because of an anti-social dog). I always told myself I'd move out before turning 30 as well. Going for a mix of new and used/cheap items. June is usually a good month for specials as well (EOFY/stocktake).
  6. Now you can start the thread Post a Pic with Your Latest Purchase :)
  7. So on June 2 we just get another copy of this image with no tire smoke? :)
  8. Red Bull caravan racing
  9. This was a pretty cool watch Going by community spotting skills only, the video reveals the following: 2016 Porsche 911 GT3 RS 2016 Porsche 911 GT3 R 2016 Porsche Cayman GT4 Clubsport 1998 Porsche 911 GT1 1984 Porsche 962C 1984 Porsche 962C Langheck 1977 Porsche 935 1976 Porsche 936 It'll be nice to have Porsche's in original game content again for once instead of DLC packs. It's possible that there are more Porsche's that haven't been revealed yet. #NewNewsNewThread
  10. I'm half expecting there are a bunch on eBay for considerable markup
  11. PS4 update 4.70 update causing issues for some 4.70 Almost Bricked My PS4 - Anyone Else? : PS4
  12. Apparently a bunch of SMS developers are a bit upset because the Ultra edition sold out too fast for them to purchase for themselves :lol:
  13. I haven't watched this yet, but if you jump to around the 30 minute mark in this nVidia press conference there's some pCARS2 footage which apparently shows a decent AI battle Watch NVIDIAs Computex 2017 Keynote Livestream Here Probably some interesting nVidia news in there too :lol:
  14. I didn't notice the absolute tooltip times, that'll do. :fp: :)
  15. The Postbit isn't showing what time of day a post was made. Can you please add this? I was trying to work out what time some lads went on a TDU1 cruise and if the timezone difference would make it remotely possible to join them.
  16. Once again another Need for Speed game based in USA. Surely I'm not the only over it? Am I right in thinking we haven't had NFS feature other countries since Hot Pursuit 2 (2001)? - excluding the Shift games of course. Forza must have proven that other locations sell. At least we know it's got day time now.
  17. I guess this counts as a picture: Still on the shopping list: and probably heaps more that I'll think of along the way. PS I've been using Google Keep for this kind of thing (reminders, tasks, synchronised sticky notes, etc) for a few months now - quite handy.
  18. The monitor is bigger than I imagined so I've never bothered to go multi-monitor with my old 1080p display (plus the cable isn't long enough to reach the PC beyond the new screen) :lol: Just too far away to look at, couldn't even reach the edge of the 2nd monitor from where I'm sitting. Anyway the desk is all built and painted (not orange or brown either) - something called Ironstone which has a modern-ish feel to it. Anyway the main reason for finding this thread was to mention those newly announced Intel Skylake-X HEDT CPU's. The i7 7820X appears to be the sweet spot, somewhat similar to the AMD Ryzen 1800X with 8 cores + 16 threads, but Intel will have a higher IPC rate, will boost out of the box to 4.5GHz, and has 28 PCI lanes instead of AMD's 16. It's a little over $100USD more expensive than the 1800X. There's only one catch. The X299 platform demands that all motherboards support all CPUs. That means that it is possible to purchase an expensive motherboard that has features intended for higher end CPUs with 44 PCI lanes, which a 28- or 16-lane CPU couldn't take full advantage of. I suspect that my proposed build (only one graphics card and one (or maybe eventually 2) M.2 NVME storage drives won't be bottlenecked, whereas a 44-lane CPU would be for multiple GFX cards and 10gb NICs. In any case, motherboard spec sheets will have to be very detailed to explain this. It seems that the 8000 CPU's (i.e. 8700K) will also come out later this year. The newly announced 'Kaby Lake X' CPUs are basically just like the 7700K but with no integrated graphics and higher TDP (power draw) which enables slightly better performance (but might have the best single-threaded performance for now). The only other catch is that I'm spending a fair bit of savings on moving out of the nest so a new HEDT may not remain a priority this year. My Internet connection should hopefully be much faster though.
  19. The who now? :umm: The only effect I'm going for is 'the taking part'
  20. I don't mind the idea of every 10th or last comp of even numbered months allowing editing, even though I have no skills.
  21. Beauty and the Beast - gotta say it was very good recreation of the original cartoon version (as far as I can remember, it's been a very long time). Recommended if you're into that kind of thing.
  22. Reminds me of that ice cream thing from a few years back
