Nonono, that's it!!! I totally missed the link :)

After fiddling with my original CDs back two years I gave up and installed these! Wide-screen, stable, high resolutions, perfect! I was so happy fans decided to get them running again!

A friendly reminder to everyone: there is a fan project, part 1 and 2 updated to run on modern systems. They have their own page, the full games can be downloaded from there, and they just work. Just Google the title and fan update.

Oh man, I hope so!

I prefer their games over anything Bethesda/Diablo/whatever stuff.

Their games, as clunky and weird they sometimes are, have soul and passion. I'm playing Risen 2 at the moment, and I just love the world. So much too see, every corner has something to find, even if it's just a bottle of Rum.

It was the same for me with the guy with the hamster in Baldur's Gate 1 and 2. He's a favourite to everyone, to me he was just an annoying idiot.

After the last elections the EU should be terrified of Nazis. Every bit of surveillance they get through now means less work for the fuckers later if they are able to grasp power.

May I kindly remind everyone of the Jew registers? The Nazis came and all the paper work was already done, good for them.

The EU is such a fantastic idea, but with shit like this they shoot themselves regularly in the foot.

Legend of the Galactic Heroes. Feels like good old Asimov could have written it. The remake is also pretty good so far.

I started to play a year ago, but dropped it pretty fast. Though I really liked it.

If they put in the effort and implement a good save game system and proper mouse/keyboard controls, they can have my money!

I lowered the difficulty, and I were able to kill bigger enemies with the weapon of my choice. But they became bullet sponges. There's no fun in that. I too prefer 2016, I like my shotgun.

I'm tired of calling it protest votes. The last idiot in a cave should have heard by now that they are literally Nazis. People who voted for them are Nazis. Which gives me the creeps as a citizen of Germany.

But on the national issues thing I'm full on your side.

Rated PG. It can work (The old Mortal Kombat movie), but this looks like crap.

No they wouldn't. Think of Israel! The press!

It's Retro Man Cave! I had no idea he had a new name, no wonder I have not seen him in such a long time!

Hello! I hope you have a nice sunday morning!

But if you can spare a few seconds, could you please make a short check about the compatability? Or if I am missing something? I write under the parts why I chose them if neccessary.

Usecase: Gaming, rarely modern games, mostly 5 years or older titles. Also video consumption, and a little bit of work like excel or word. NO streaming or video editing and stuff like that. I have a 32" 4k 144 hz monitor, but I have no problem with running games for example at 1080p, they still look nice.

The prices are definitly ok for my country, so I'm just asking if anyone can spot an incompatability or has a suggestion where I do something extremely stupid.

It has been 9 years since my last built so I must admit I'm a bit nervous. Also I don't really have a budget, but energy efficiency is my main goal for some of the parts.

Processor: AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D (409 Euro)

(longevity, using a i7 4770 for almost 9 years now, maybe I can repeat that)

Mainboard: ASRock B650 PG Lightning (204 Euro)

(many USB ports that I definetly will use)

RAM: G.Skill DIMM 32 GB DDR5-6000 (2x16 GB) 30-38-38-96 (113 Euro)

(low profile because big air cooler)

Air cooler: be quiet! Dark Rock Pro 4 (89 Euro)

(Silent Assassin is not available here, this was the next best thing)

Tower: be quiet! Dark Base 900

(already have it)

PSU: be quiet! Pure Power 12M 850W, 80+Gold (135 Euro)

(read good reviews)

Storage: WD Black SN850X NVMe SSD 2TB (120 Euro)

(read good reviews)

GPU: Gainward GeForce RTX 4070 Ghost OC (599 Euro)

(very energy efficient, would have liked to go the AMD route, but they are too power hungry)

Soundcard: Soundblaster X-FI Titanium

(already have it, love the features and connectivity)

Total: Around 1650 Euro
