All I usefor gaming is a budget pre-built desktop I bought in 2022. It have a Ryzen 5 5600G CPU, and 32 GB DDR4 RAM. It initially came with a single 16GB DIMM, so I added a second cheapo DIMM for dual channel shortly after buying the PC. Much better performance from the Vega 7 iGPU with a dual...

All the games I mentioned in my previous post are on Steam. Particularly like jigsaws in Tabletop Sim. Take any image, cut it into 180 or 320 pieces, excellent controls, customise the layout if you want. Used to host, and people would join in, but I just stick to single player now. It's my...

Hello, just signed up on here. I would have to say Mount and Blade: Warband. I've racked up more than 4000 hours on it since 2012. The combat never gets old. These days I mostly fire up the Napoleonic Wars dlc and play online commander battles.
