    Counter-Strike’s New Era Begins – Watch the Trailer

    Are you referring to May 22, 2025 update? It slightly feels way better now. The gunplay is tight, maps look sharper, and matches are more intense. However I see fans are busy watching "ASUTIN 25" " https://www.counter-strike.net/newsentry/529849950216913271 Been watching a few Twitch streams...

    Question Is this a good budget 4K build under $2000?

    Also, I forgot to mention that I already had two SSDs: Crucial P300 2 TB Samsung 2 TB Gen 4 and Samsung 2 TB Gen 3 and 2 TB HDDs too so for the same reason I went for board with more NVME SSD slots.

    Question Is this a good budget 4K build under $2000?

    Thanks, for now I will stick to 2 x 16 GB and will surely upgrade in next few months when prices are less or in upcoming sale. 5070 TI is overly priced in here, although 9070 XT is also not close reasonable price yet. I only paid few bucks more for AIO, good air cooler was almost near to it...

    Upgrade from 10900k to 9800X3D

    There’s not much difference on cost between 7800x 3d and 9800x3d and so does the performance. If the build is capable to handle power and you got money get 9800x3d otherwise 7800x 3d. You will have 100 FPS in most games at 4K with your 4090.

    Which PC game do you recommend to beginner?

    If you're just starting out, I'd say try Portal 2 i's super fun and teaches you how to think in games without being too hard. I mostly play CS, and would recommend it if you're into guns and shooting otherwise you can try Forza Horizon for car racing.

    Has anyone played black ops 6 with rtx 4070 laptop

    I'm wondering how it'll perform on my laptop with Ryzen 7 and 3060 6 GB. FHD is fine for me on a 24" monitor.

    Dear Devs: Please Make Games with Lower End Machines in Mind

    I get what you’re saying about lower-end machines. Your setup is pretty solid for its age - the GTX 1080 and i7-6800K were top-tier back then, and it’s impressive that they still hold up in most games. On high-end hardware, the game can chug because of all the calculations happening in the...

    Question What is your greatest moment in gaming? No doubt this will have spoilers!

    I know the feeling because I have been last man standing in several matches of CS 1.6.

    Settings.

    I have tried professional player settings and style since CS 1.6 and it definitely helped me improve and understand the game better. The more you watch their game the more you learn!
