VB

Came across this by accident and ended up hooked.

Real answers from people here are usually more useful than search results.

Looking for genuine experience rather than what sounds good on paper.

I am less interested in what is technically correct and more interested in what actually works day to day. :P

Let me know what you think.
The truth is usually more complicated than the headline

Quanta

Yeah that is the sensible route. Worked for me at least.

VB

Cannot really disagree with that. The price matters more than it used to, I am much more selective about what I buy full price.

Good shout.

VB

Exactly what I found. I only really trust word of mouth for games now, reviews are all over the place.

I would push back on that slightly. Let us know how it goes.

That is exactly it. Yeah I get that.

Nice one. :)
Have you tried turning it off and on again?

That is pretty much it. Ha, fair enough.

Solid point, that matches what I ran into. I would try the least destructive fix first before changing too much at once.

Start there and see if it makes a difference.

I would wait for a bit more before concluding that. The incentive structures in media mean certain angles get more coverage than they deserve.

Worth keeping an eye on.
ISA maxed. Costs minimised.

Yes, and I would add that it is even more true if your hardware is older. Nine times out of ten it is something boring like a driver or a startup item rather than the hardware itself.

Worth trying before anything more drastic.

QuantumKnight

Feels like the right read on it. Interesting to see where it goes.

WhatUQuant

From what I saw that checks out. Interesting to see where it goes.
git commit -m "fixed everything"

veritas.io

Completely agree, and it is frustrating that this is not more widely known. The problem with most advice online is it assumes a clean install which most machines are not.

Post back with what you find and we can go from there.
Coffee first. Questions later.

JayJ

That is the sensible route. The cheap fix usually costs more in the end when it fails.

Worth doing it properly rather than rushing it.

MrRicardo

From what I saw that checks out. Most people form opinions on things like this before the full picture is available.

I will keep following it.

Good shout. Thanks for that. :o

I tried that and the catch was not obvious until afterwards. I will keep an eye on it.

JayJ

Agree completely, preparation is everything. Post a photo when it is done.

DarkLantern

That is pretty much what I found too. The problem with most advice online is it assumes a clean install which most machines are not.

Happy to help further if you get stuck.
Opinions are my own. Obviously.

CosmicRay40

Completely agree with that. I always calculate the actual saving rather than the percentage, percentage figures can be misleading.

Good to know about.

BlueFalcon

That is pretty much what I found too. Start there and see if it makes a difference.

Candle

Exactly what I was thinking. Head to head record matters much more than people give it credit for.

Good debate though, fair play.
Have you tried turning it off and on again?

Blake_73

That resonates with me. I like threads like this because people come at the same thing from different angles.

Really good thread this.

VB

Not sure about that bit tbh. For me the sign of a good game is when I am still thinking about it when I am not playing it.

Still playing it tbh.

Really like that take on it. Really good thread this.

A lot of these things sound better than they are. The comparison sites are fine as a starting point but always go direct to confirm the terms.

Cheers for sharing that.

SuperPosition

Solid advice that. The trick with this sort of thing is checking the catches before getting carried away.

Cheers for sharing that.
Football is life. Everything else is just details.

Plateau65

That matches what the more reliable sources are saying. The speed of the news cycle means most things get forgotten before they are properly resolved.

I will keep following it.
