    I'm a bit of an asus fan, but that's just gimmicky bullshit. Like their avalon concept.

    If you like hardware porn though, check out /r/battlestations I'm thinking about upgrading mine, but there's isn't really any reason to move on from the 4790k I got ages ago.

    Also, anyone else think the steam sale on now is a bit shit?

    Yeah, steam sales aren't what they used to be. Still, I just brought 2 games that have been sitting on my wishlist (just off my active game-dar) for a couple of years both at 75%off so I'm happy for now. Shadow of Mordor and Dark Souls:PTD ed woop woop they should give me plenty of great gameplay hours for $21 all up.

    If there's a daily special on Doom of -50% or more I'll probably grab that also, and perhaps the Fallout 4 addons. There is a limit to how much you can play at any one time tho...

    I haven't even looked at Steam in ages - Unlocked my first T10 in WoWS though - the Montana.

    Had a peek at Dreadnaught - it needs some work before it is ready.

    I buy a bit off it, I'm always a few years behind the latest and greatest so it doesn't cost a lot, just finished Crysis, Mass effect 2 and Far Cry 3

    Problem I now have is my system is 32 bit so there's stuff I want which I cant play as it requires 64

    Dont have a high spec system and I did a recent video card upgrade as I only had a 512mb card up to a 2gig card which made a hell difference

    Horses for courses then I guess, seems a bit bulky and inelegant to me anyway. But then I'm not really a fan of the more garish trends like flashy RGB LED lighting on all the shit; I type this on a K95RGB, but that's cos reasons...

    Dreadnought looks like it could be a goer, as does No Man's Sky; also played a bit of Star Citizen the other day, don't know how to play so just found a random to pilot until we exploded. Frames are a bit low in multiplayer, but it progresses nicely.

    Far Cry 3 is pretty up there, best in series, may be best in genre tbh.

    Hade on thing on mine at 50% then found I didn't even want it anymore... Got a couple of 35%rs that have gone under the $20 mark though so might get one or two.

    Was hoping Just Cause 3 DLC would have good discounts.

    Don't really look at steam sales at the mo, I have most the games I want and my HD 4850 can handle the rest will have to wait for an upgrade.

    Liking this war of mine at the mo and playing some old skool with Sven co-op too

    Two excellent games you got there for that price

    Dark Souls is very hard, but stick with it, it's the best game I've ever played. I've just about finished Dark Souls 3.

    Got my Montana couple months ago, went hard on my elite ships then cashed up the XP.

    Now running Clemson (just for fun), Baltimore (just added last night), Montana, Nikolai, Kirov (moored with no captain, lost interest in going higher, weak amour), Kutzhov, Atago, Kagero, Tirpitz

    Montana is good but not a great deal more than the Iowa, only because the Iowa is pretty good. And once three or four ships start targeting you at same time that health disappears fast....
    It has great AA though.

    Finally had a chance to crack into WoWs. I think it's broken though

    Yeah - I'm still upgrading my Montana with Modules (just need to get the Rudder shift module next then done) - The extra triple turret I find does help bring the pain, but it still feels second fiddle to the Yamato.

    Good Choice on the Atago - she is probably my Fav cruiser (along with the Cleveland) - I've got most of the ARP ships, an Aoba, the Yorck, Lo Yang, New Orleans (soon to be Baltimore) Iowa and Montana (I had to keep the Iowa - she is one of my Fav ships in RL) and the Warspite. I've also unlocked the Mutsuki but haven't bought her yet.


    I'm looking at possibly getting the USS Texas as a credit earning ship, but as yet - am undecided.
