i got the 3080FE to boost workstation power while waiting on my 3090FTW because i knew my bro would pay me msrp when i was done with it. I got the 3080 in the bestbuy drop a few weeks ago. I have multiple discords that ping me when drops happen, and I got lucky. Bestbuy is the only etailer that I know of that reliably reserves your product once you get to the checkout page, which fixes how bots can outpace you and insta-pay for everything

Turned out not being necessary because the queue for the 3090FTW Ultra caught up to me a week later. It'll be here tomorrow (in theory)

bigger/ faster vram & geforce blender stuff

again, didn't purchase for games. they're just a bonus

i am probs going to get it p soon after release (will wait for some reviews as always, but i expect it'll be good lol)

checking now with 3080FE. will get back to you on the 3090FTW Monday ish

edit 24 chunk render distance (max in rtx) averages just under 100fps when staying in the same area, ~60 with some bad spikes when loading a lot of new chunks (like flying around in creative). will update when the 3090 gets here lol

Lol- I'm already selling the 3080 FE I got to my big bro (@ msrp + shipping). Scalping unironically crossed my mind but meh I'd rather make him happy

Hey everyone. I have an EVGA 3090 FTW Ultra on the way, mainly to be used for productivity in Blender.

That shit was expensive though, so I'd love any recommendations on great games that have been released in the past couple years. I've not just casually played single player video games since ~2010, so I'm super out of the loop. I definitely want to see how far games have come in the past few years.

I love games that tell a story and have good movement. That's literally all I care about though- open to p much anything, including "older" titles that I missed this past decade. ty gamers <3

it's uhhhh not for source games rofl

there is a small group of players playing competitive pass time on a really cool custom map. not sure how frequently they meet or if the format is any good, but the frag videos i've seen are kinda nuts

keep your scouts alive and buffed

keep your soldier/demo alive

those classes aren't particularly good, especially relative to a stock lineup. focus hitscan on the pyro then take out the other two in any order

it's the weekend. just wait a while. if you don't hear anything back after a week, bump this thread and someone may be able to help further

map layout will inherently delay some times and/or make holding/pushing harder or easier. good mappers fix this by adjusting times.

yes, unless my whole life is a lie. i was told a long time ago that tournament mode locks it in. (assuming someone can confirm)

mp_showrespawntimes. or you can decompile the maps with bspsource

Switching classes won't make this go away. Imo, you should probably step away for a little while and come back. It seems like you're acknowledging that playing the game isn't something that's super healthy for you rn. Take a while to go away, come back, and see if you can enjoy the game again. If the past 13 years are any indication, it will be here when you get back lol

If you don't enjoy your time playing TF2, there's no reason to play it. I 'quit' taking it incredibly seriously 3-4 years ago now. It's not like an esport where there are any huge stakes. The ONLY reason to play is to have a good time, and if you don't enjoy it... stop. It's one of the best decisions I ever made. Grades turned around, I got healthier, found the love of my life, worked on friendships with people that put up with me never being available, the list goes on.

And if I get the urge to come play some pugs... guess what, it's still there for me. The game's still around. And I suck at it a lot more than I did when I had 60 hours every week, but guess who cares? no one! Still fun.

Best of luck, robln.
