Yeah yeah I ain’t post ever. Not sorry, been busy. Got a new job which just started this past week so I’m mentally and physically drained right now, but happy.

Another reason I’m drained right now is I just spent yesterday building a new PC, which is something I only rarely get to do but really enjoy when the opportunity comes around. I ain’t built a new PC since 2019. I was running on an old 9900K and a 2080ti. Both great in their time, but today it struggles to get medium settings on most new games at 1440p.

So there came a time. Now I’m running a 9800X3D and a 5080 with a big ol’ swingin’ dick 42 inch OLED screen and I’m wading into those 4k waters. I’ma be spending some time trying out some things to see how they compare, and trying out some new things to see some stuff I couldn’t before. Maybe I’ll post a bit about it, but you know how it is with me.

I’m also gonna talk about that GameCube FlippyDrive I mentioned in the last post when I can – mine’s not arriving until August so it’s gonna be a minute. I also talked a little bit about the dozens of Desert Strike homage games coming out – more of them are either out or have demos available now, so I definitely wanna get on that and try as many out as I can. I highly doubt any will truly live up to the original, but I’ll be very glad if any of them surprise me.
