Looks like display port

Thanks I was finally able to Google that part. So if I add a monitor with an HDMI to Display port cable, should that do what I need?

 

[medicchick]

Short answer no on the splitter cable. RP will be along when we stop for a break I'm sure. He's done all sorts of dual monitor setups for decades...lol

Thanks for that. What I am planning right now is to run one monitor via HDMI and the 2nd via Display Port (with an HDMI to DisplayPort cable)

I've been playing a lot of Fortnite lately. Also playing Civ 6 and LOTR SOW.

Is this an old monitor? Most newer ones have a displayport port. Just go straight displayport without the conversion.

Go straight displayport. Lose all the HDMI. there is no reason to use it if you have displayport connections and modern monitors.

DisplayPort 1.4 vs HDMI 2.1

Displayport is a far better output

I bought a 144hz, 1440p, G-Sync monitor a few months ago... shit is so cash.

Anyone still playing R6 Siege on PC?

Finally!!!!!

PUBG's Training Mode will feature a shooting range, racetracks, parachute practice, and more | PC Gamer

 

[nobodythank you]

JFC it is about time. That should have been in early access.

@Rapid I play siege regularly, also has anyone seen WW3? Looks like it might take over Battlefield with bullet mechanics.

Please see the Army/Marine meme thread I’d venture to guess it’ll be a dlc like bf1.

For those of you interested in a serious and true MMO (Massively Multiplayer Online) game, EVE Online is the way to go. You can do a google search for EVE stories and you will see some very cool things done within the game. Here is a video that was put together by the creators that uses player driven content:

Only game that I know of that has that large of a "scale", not to mention the amount of real world money people invest into this game yet can lose everything in literally an instant.

Spoiler

Goonswarm Federation did nothing wrong

now??? lol I've had a character since 2003. Just got back into it in the Alpha state to see how it goes and if it is worth getting back into on a more permanent basis. I do miss the game.

I miss what it used to be back in the early 2000's. It changed around '06-07 and started to suck, too many players who just wanted to wreck everything. They'd think nothing of instapopping you in high sec just to rack up a Concord cred. This was around the time they started really advertising it on TV and online though so it got flooded.

I disagree, I think the game evolved as intended. Where as in other MMOs you become a spacebar captain (STO), EO forces you to learn, adapt, and to actually think. I love that there is a counter to everything in the game. It truly allows players to dictate the course of the game in ways that no other game has ever been able to. For the most part, CCP stays out of the game and lets the ingame economy, culture, and drama unfold naturally. I mean hell, as of last report, the game employs at least 5 real world economists to oversee the ingame economy.

I don't see it as players trying to wreck the game, I see it as people playing a role they want to play. If there is a large group wanting to harass others, then the game allows for good players to band together and stop the jerks. Granted, it is difficult and rarely done, but can't the same be said for our world today? To me, the game allows us to fulfill whatever role we desire with little consequence, other than rage quitting lol.

At least now, you don't lose skill points when you die, just gear, implants, and ships. The skill loss should have never been implemented, as time is the one commodity we can never get back.
