    SOMA in Linux

    Ah I was wondering about Amnesia The Bunker. I thought it might be an expansion or something. I didn't get a chance to play Amnesia Rebirth, in fact a lot of reviews on GOG say its not that great. Either way, I love the premise of the games and the spooky environments. I assume they all have...

    SOMA in Linux

    Yes, it was done perfectly! I love any game by Frictional Games. They know how to write a story, create dramatic worlds and throw us right in the middle of it. I also like the puzzles and creative monsters. There is no run-n-gun here, you have to be clever and run if necessary. What other...

    Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun

    Wow, sorry I missed this post! I still do not get email notifications from the forums and we have never figured it out. Probably Gmail marking the notifications as spam. I'll definitely check this game out and hopefully there is co-op cause that is my favorite. It kinda looks like Doom meets...

    Disappointed? I could never be disappointed with Drakensang! Thank you so much for sharing! I will take a look and give it a try. Does it require Steam or can I still use it with Wine and the downloaded version?

    Media Center Build - Audio Artifacts

    I installed the new CPU (with no integrated GPU) and the audio drops/artifacts still exist. For now I'm just setting screen to 1920x1080 and using analog stereo. I've yet to contact Sony about the amp because I think the limited warranty period has passed. I'm not really sure how to resolve...

    Media Center Build - Audio Artifacts

    Hey Daerandin, I was doing some more testing... I noticed my CPU usage is a bit high while streaming 4K video. It isn't maxing out, but holding steady at 80%, no higher than 83%. Do you think this would cause any audio dropouts or video frame stutter? Hold on, I just found an Intel Core i3...

    Media Center Build - Audio Artifacts

    Media Center Build - Audio Artifacts

    No problem! I'm in no hurry anyways. Nope, I didn't try the tsched and fragment size at the same time. I'll give it a go. I was also thinking, maybe my HDMI cable is cheap and inferior. I have noticed a lot of lip-sync in videos on Youtube and Prime are barely out-of-sync. Here is an idea...

    Media Center Build - Audio Artifacts

    Update - Looks like 1920x1080 runs fine in Mint 21 for now. Been using it all day and no audio artifacts at all... Really sucks because when I want to watch a 4K video on Amazon Prime I can't... not the end of the world, but really sucks because my Verizon Fios internet is super fast gigabit...

    Media Center Build - Audio Artifacts

    I'm looking at my ThinkPad laptop right now. I installed Mint 21 on it and used a USB-C Thunderbolt to HDMI cable and it ran 4K just fine and no issues with audio. It has a GeForce Quadro T1000

    Media Center Build - Audio Artifacts

    By the way I added links for all the hardware I purchased in the original post. The GeForce GTX 1650 is here: https://www.newegg.com/gigabyte-geforce-gtx-1650-gv-n1656oc-4gd/p/N82E16814932287 It supports 8K resolution and requires a 300W PSU The Enermax SFX I got is 650W so it should be enough...

    Ok, well I have tried the following drivers and still having the artifacts: Nvidia 510 Nvidia 515 Nvidia 525 In the archlinux wiki there are a few things I don't understand... How do I know if my CPU is an Intel using IOMMU? There is a not about real-time kernel which I've read about for...
