Windows 11 Is Making Amd Chips Slower In Games

This is apparently affecting, or has the potential to affect, all AMD chips that officially support Windows – that’s dozens and dozens of processors, including the AMD Ryzen 5 5600X that sits atop our best CPU for gaming list. Both AMD and Microsoft are “actively investigating” fixes, with a view to launching separate software and Windows updates within this month (October 2021). According to AMD’s post, there are two distinct issues when pairing Windows 11 with an AMD CPU....

Xcom Studio S Marvel Game Midnight Suns Is Delayed

Marvel’s Midnight Suns stars a new customisable character, the Hunter, a daughter of Lilith. To stop Lilith’s diabolical plans and demonic forces, she’ll team up with superheroes ranging from the big movie men Iron Man and Wolverine to lesser-known spooky ones like Nico Minoru and Magik. The action looks kinda XCOM-y, though abilities come from cards you hold—might shake things up a bit. “We know many fans were looking forward to playing the game originally next spring, and this decision did not come lightly,” creative director Jake Solomon and senior franchise producer Garth DeAngelis said in last night’s announcement....

Yoshiro Kimura S New Sandbox Rpg Will Be Out In 2023 Might Be About Children

I’m telling you all this because it might pique your interest in their upcoming sandbox RPG, which we now know will be out at some point next year. We don’t know much else, but what we do know comes from the latest edition of Onion Games’ newsletter, where Kimura responds to a few fan questions. “Next year is all we can say for now”, he said, in response to someone asking when the next game will be out....

Yu Gi Oh Master Duel S New Limited Time Event Starts Today

All the cards in Yu-Gi-Oh! have tiers, and in this case, N and R stands for Normal and Rare. The event’s all about trying to get creative and build a deck using only those card rarities, instead of putting in any Ultra Rare or Super Rare ones. The good news is the number of medals you earn is the same whether or not you use a loaner deck or build your own, unlike the previous XYZ festival....

Zachtronics Wargame M Bius Front 83 Strikes Out Today

For the sake of the Americans in the audience, I’ll try not to make too many jokes about America being its own worst enemy. But hey, at least you’ve only got one USA to stress over. Taking place in an alternate 1983, Möbius Front pits the United States against, well, itself - an even more malevolent America whose imperialism isn’t confined to just their own dimension. Through turn-based battles on hex-grid maps, you’ll use the overfunded military might to fend off the invasion for good....

Action Rpg No Place For Bravery Gets Release Window And New Trailer

Have a butcher’s at the trailer below. And butcher’s is right, since, despite being rendered in little pixels and the camera being at a fair old distance, you can somehow see the innards splashes of gore in lovely detail. Honestly, it’s like someone slaughtered a pig in here. Tch. By developers Glitch Factory and published by Ysbryd Games (publishers of family favourites VA-11 HALL-A and World Of Horror), No Place For Bravery tells the tale of Thorn, a sad murder dad, who is looking for his daughter Leaf (their family is obviously one of those ones that has a weird name tradition thing)....

After 8 Years Hack N Slash Players Have Finally Solved A Secret Room Puzzle

Not long after Hack ’n’ Slash released in 2014, players found a particular file among its scripts called SecretRoom.lua. This particular file was encrypted and could only be unlocked with a decryption key, which no one could figure out. The answer was found this week by Glenn “Netrix” Anderson, after a tiny hint offered by the designer of the puzzle, Brandon Dillon. After finding the solution, Anderson, who is also a programmer in the video game industry, tweeted that, “It was really cool to take part in this experience....

Alan Wake Remastered How It Compares To The Original

Personally I concur that Alan Wake Remastered is not the most appealing prospect if you’re counting pennies, and it’s disappointing to see Remedy deciding against ray tracing despite a.) nailing the tech first time in Control, Alan Wake’s universe-mate and b.) light itself integral to Alan’s in-game toolkit. That said, the remaster isn’t without ambition, so here’s your guide to everything it changes – and how it looks next to the 2010 original....

Amazon Are Bringing Diablo Like Korean Mmo Lost Ark To The West

Lost Ark is a free-to-play MMO that was released in Korea (and Russia and Japan) back in 2018, supposedly to considerable success. As you might have guessed from the trailer above, it’s a Diablo-like, in which you pick from of 15 available classes and then plow through swarms of enemies. The MMO aspects manifest via being able to team up with pals to run raids, sail ships and build settlements....

Amd Adrenalin Driver 22 5 2 Tested Big Promises But No Gpu Miracle Worker

This week, AMD Software Adrenaline Edition 22.5.2 released, making that new Radeon driver available to anyone who didn’t fancy switching to preview builds. Armed with an RX 6500 XT (a low-end card that desperately needs a performance kick), I gave the new software a whirl – and found that, for all those big numbers, Radeon owners should probably lower their expectations. I’m not saying bigger gains won’t be had on other graphics cards, or in games besides the ones I’ve tested....

Amd S New Ryzen 5700G Apu Is Going Cheap In The Uk

Get the AMD Ryzen 7 5700G for £295 (was £330) So why is this a good deal? Well, the Ryzen 7 5700G is the first chip with integrated graphics to appear in AMD’s incredibly powerful Ryzen 5000 family. This basically combines the processing performance of Ryzen’s 5800X CPU with the graphics performance of something in the ballpark of an AMD RX 570 GPU. That means it’s more than capable of handling 1080p gaming all by itself, no discrete graphics card required, but it’s also fast enough to be paired with a proper GPU later on....

Amd S Ryzen 5 5600X Gaming Cpu Is Down To 185 In The Uk

Get the AMD Ryzen 5 5600X for £185 w/ code FNDDGAMING So why is the 5600X getting cheaper all of a sudden? I’d say there are three main reasons: Intel suddenly has a proper competitor in the form of the 12400F, AMD just released even cheaper Ryzen 5000 models, and the company is also planning to release Ryzen 6000 CPUs in the second half of this year. All of these conspire to push the Ryzen 5 5600X down in price, where I’d argue it makes a lot of sense to pick up this CPU....

Now, The Washington Post report that a group of shareholders, led by the Strategic Organizing Center (SOC) Investment Group, are calling for Kotick to resign, and for the two longest-standing board directors Brian Kelly and Robert Morgado to retire by the end of the year....

Another Crab S Treasure Is A Soulslike About Battling Crabs

It’s still cute, though. There’s a reveal trailer below. I went quickly from “Aw, that crab is using a plastic straw as a sword! How clever!” to “Oh. Yeah. Grim.” As a hermit crab, you’re on a mission to buy back your repossessed shell, and it’s the combat along the way that causes its developers to compare it to a Soulslike. You’ll need to be carefully timing your blocks, rolling out of the way, and waiting for the right moment to stab your own piece of cutlery back in their fishy hides....
