Boardgame & Video Gaming Thread

Last edited by a moderator:
I was pretty bummed when I heard about all these studios shutting down and games like Wonder Woman getting the axe. It feels like every other week there’s news of another cancelled title, and it’s honestly tough for fans who look forward to fresh stuff from big names like Warner Bros. My friends and I used to spend hours talking about what we wanted to see in these games, and it’s a letdown not to even get a chance to play them. That’s partly why I started checking out more niche and regional games online. Lately I found out you can try traditional Sabong games by joining in from your phone. The community there is surprisingly active and there are even other games besides Sabong if you’re looking for something different, which I came across at https://i-sabong.asia.

Is this the right thread to ask for PC config?:cool:
I'm planning to get new PC for 3D rendering, video editing, gaming.
I used my good laptops for 18 years o_O, so i would use this PC for at least 10 years. So the motherboard needs to be strong. Other components can be upgraded with time.
Will 32GB DDR4 RAM, RTX 5060 (8GB) suffice?
What CPU should i get?

32GB is okay for 3d rendering and video editing, and overkill for gaming. Any 8GB GPU is massively underpowered for the rendering and editing, and becoming marginal for games at higher resolution than 1080. Ngreedia will absolutely demand top f҉ ing dollar for not much more vram and a pile of AI framegen nonsense, while AMD has somewhat better raster performance and worse raytracing for the dollar, and less or no fake frames. Slightly freer and more liberal with vram, too.

DDR4 keeps you on AM4 for AMD or whatever eight sockets Intel made that preceded the past three or four sockets they made on DDR5 mobos. This is what will decide your cpu. 3d rendering will push hard at core counts, while gaming will stress cache size and low-thread-count performance. Your best bet with AM4 is probably a 5950x or a 5800x3d if you can find it!

Tried PC Part Picker?

Blender & Games like War Thunder, Battlefield 2024, Forza Horizon, new Hitman remake recommend 16GB RAM & 6-8GB DDR5 GPU, 3.7 GHz 6 core CPU.
DCS recommends 32GB RAM & 8GB+ DDR5 GPU, 4.5 GHz CPU.
The minimum is half those specs.
The upcoming games in near future may demand more.

Should i select 12GB GPU?
I'm confused b/w Ryzen & Intel CPUs.

This thread is awesome for discovering all kinds of games! From space sims to tank battles, there’s something for everyone. Definitely giving me ideas for what to play next.
 
Does anyone play Broken Arrow? The artillery and vision mechanics can torment both your opponent and yourself at the same time, so I really love this game.
