vongole83 commented on [PC, VR, Steam] Half-Life: Alyx $26.38 (70% off) @ Steam
I don't. Haha got a 9070XT with a 7800XT build coming soon. This is tempting and a good reason to dust off the Quest 2. Dumb/odd question.…

By all accounts the 9070XT is faster than the 5070Ti for MSFS but very limited data so far

Yes. Because I am feeling charitable, I will swap you by 9070XT (when it arrives) for your RTX4090 :)

I wish! New AMD cards being announced this week. These will stack up similar to a 5070 by all accounts. Super on the fence about whether to…
