1080, 1070 and 1060 EVGA cards with ACX 3.0 coolers are bursting to flames because of a design flaw, so I would not recommend buying those at the moment.

Edit: Here is the article about the case.

Insurgency might amuse Jeff for a minute.

@devil240z: Progression from skepticism before trying out the game to buying loot boxes a day later is so funny. Glad it seems you didn't waste your money!

Pretty sure they don't care about this issue since this thread has gone unnoticed for over two months.

According to steam stats Dark Souls 1 peaked at 9745 concurrent players today on PC. So there must be something wrong with your game.

I guess they had some trouble with the save files since the stream was first postponed by one hour before being cancelled. Bummer.

Edit: Never mind that I guess it's still happening.

@jackelbeaver: Gaping dragon does look cool and that cutscene is great. I just don't think it goes after the player enough which makes it a boring fight. Or maybe I'm wrong for wanting harder boss fights.

Dan skipped bosses just to anger fanatic dark souls fans, but honestly he didn't miss out on much. Gaping dragon is a shitty boss. It's supposed to have different attack patterns but all I ever see is it running to a wall in a straight line and occasionally standing up and then slamming down. Bell gargoyles are more fun but that is mostly because you have to fight multiple enemies. Not all dark souls bosses are masterpieces like some make them out to be.

This article should be an interesting read for you even if it's about i5-2500k.

If you want to upgrade now then only buy a new GPU. If you have patience then it is rumored that AMD and NVIDIA release their new entry level graphics cards sometime during the summer and high end cards will arrive later.

980 ti is a fast card and should run fine in your system. If you want a cheaper card in 980 range then r9 390X is actually faster especially if you have windows 10.

I'm okay with getting a slightly better Warband so this looks perfect for me. I can already see the Austin/Vinny Quick Look with my minds eye.
