XboxEra Community Hangout |OT| Safe Space no longer required (Part 1)

nah I think they said it was an average laptop lol. Laptops are also never on the high-end of the PC market while still being any sort of reasonable, they cost three times or more for the same performance. Don’t think they were referring to that subset of the market. But Tim himself is confirming those features require significant power only found on the new machines so no arguing there.

Hey, there’s always some cup noodles if you’re in a pinch :stuck_out_tongue:. We just got back from a long hike, we’re going to order in. Gyros meat and rice…mmm. Oh sheesh, this is supposed to be a gaming forum…uh, I’m playing Immortals right now so yeah lol.

It had an Nvidia RTX 2080 graphics and a 970 Evo Plus NVME.

One of but many places listing the spec: Unreal Engine 5 PS5 demo runs happily on current-gen graphics cards and SSDs | PC Gamer

Sounds great… I haven’t ordered in since the pandemic started, the people handling most of it here is…let’s just say hygiene is questionable even in normal times. Not taking any chances lol.

Today I’m gonna make some mashed potatoes with meat balls though!

maybe I got mixed up with the laptop thing, but this was what I was meaning to refer to.

GPU Rendering budget for Fornite on Console sounds an awful lot like something that doesn’t require a goddamn RTX 2080

Back in the U.S., I didn’t have as much access to some of the foods I do where I’m living now. Gyros seems pretty big here, so I have to take advantage while I can! And being Asian, I love my rice. Perfect combo lol. Meatballs and mashers…my wife would be jealous.

I always make enough to feed a stray person here and there, it’s still warm, and we’re watching “The Wrath of Khan”.

Hah, the lady and I have been plugging away on The Next Gen. I love it, although she says Deep Space Nine is better.

Babylon 5 is the better Deep Space Nine :slight_smile:

That looks real good.

Epic holding features???

huh?

Yup, but the performance mentioned on the laptop was definitely provided by the RTX 2080 mobile equivalent. The fastest most performant mobile part at the time.

The technology can scale, based on how much of it you want to use. Only doing Fornite level of details then it’ll perform better than the Streaming Demo shown.

new Defining Duke Podcast episode out, lol today’s been big for xbox podcasts in general :slight_smile: Hope to find something interesting here, especially given ACG’s recent musings.

Do we know what time period they’re setting it in this time?

Deep Space Nine is my favorite Trek series.

You mean cheaper Deep Space Nine. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

Tried to start Bioshock last night. Man, it did not age well. Just no fun at all to play in 2021. I dropped it. Started Hitman instead.

I played Bioshock Trilogy just last year and found them still very good and fun to play.

Am I one of the few that didnt really like Infinite that much?

… I do like DS9 for the record.

I also like Babylon 5. I think it has a much more intriguing story arc than Deep Space Nine (or at least the first 2 seasons of DS9).
