I've heard the game doesn't run perfect, the black bars might be there just to avoid even worse frame-rate by having to render the full scene.

@devildoll: Yes, but making a finished game look like it's in early access is a pretty fucking incompetent thing to do, and it is a big deal, even if it's just for an hour.

I believe it was early access, and was supposed to go final at that date.

It wasn't a final release that got labled as early access, it was simply the transition from early access to final that didn't happen at the time mike thought it should have.

It's was a mistake, everyone makes those.

Calling steam "the most incompetent piece of fucking shit" over it is just hyperbolic.

@devildoll: well, slow downloads, slow support, limitations regarding password change and its effects on ability to sell or buy via com market, it being a drm, region segregation, prices in my region, hitherto it's been a terrible platform software wise, cheaters running rampant on most both Valve and other dev game servers. Tis but for starters.

Funny or not, these are not the only or main reasons.

But do not be mistaken, this is my stance on most DRMs.

alright, well as far as the downloads I don't think any other download service has a higher standard than steam, i usually max my 100 mbit line, during sales you may get worse of course, but usually you can better it by switching your location to ukraine.

I don't change my password often enough to bump up against any limitations there, i just rely on steamguard having my back covered.

I'm not the most diligent marketplace user, at least not trading, but the 600 or so items i have in my inventory, which are mostly trading cards have gone without hassle.

i dont think i have a stance on region segregation.

I'm European, so prices are a bit high in steam, I'm not entirely sure who's to blame for that though, sites like GMG help with that issue.

As far as cheaters go, i'm not sure any other anti cheat is better, i heard they banned a bunch of CS:GO players the other day, including some semi-pro's

I honestly very rarely notice cheaters in any fps, be it battlefield or heroes and generals.

as far as DRM goes, steam has never done me wrong, it can drm as much as it wants as long as nothing unjust happens.

Nothing here seems worthy of calling incompetent in my opinion.

Yeah, but I do agree with the part about Steam being an incompetent piece of fucking shit. I have ... my reasons.

cpu temps should be able to be viewed in bios as well, if you can access that.

I never thought about that until you brought it up @acornactivist .

Although it's not like i have spent a lot of time in either game, pretty much all of my interaction with said titles have been thought the bombcast or shenanigans during giant bomb's video productions.

2011 is an enthusiast platform.

Don't buy it, unless you know exactly why you are buying it, because you most likely have no use for it.

@amafi said:

2011 is also triple channel memory so it works with different configurations than 1150. (3x identical chips pr set for 2011, 2x for 1150)

quad channel actually, which would translate over to dual channel pretty well.

@unilad: could you install cpu-z and check what it says about your ram?

Check the memory tab, to see the total amount of memory, and then browse through the slots at the SPD tab to see if it finds all your sticks.

By definition, yes. I had the same CPU and gained 10fps on average in a lot of games by upgrading to an i7-4770K. It is significant, IMO.

depends, 10 fps at 100, or 10 fps at 10.
