GTX960 on its way indeed

Funny how just this morning I blogged about looking forward to the GeForce GTX960 when it finally launches, and I just read that the card will finally launch around the 24th of January 2015.

There will apparently be a 2GB and 4GB version, running on a 128bit bus and GDDR5 Memory. Frequency for the memory will be just over 7000Mhz, and power needs will be very low at just 120W. From what I gather, they will sell for around $200, so I guess around R3000 in South Africa.

Can't wait!

How I farm Death's Breath and Blood Shards in Diablo 3

Image
Ahhh Diablo 3! The gaming comeback of the century! Never would I have thought that Blizzard can turn around the game as much as they did after they patched it to version 2. Diablo 3 and its auction house was an absolute mess when the game launched in 2012, but now, it's one of the games I keep on going back to. With each new Season, I level one of my remaining non-level-70 character classes to level 70, and now, with Season 5 (I skipped season 2 and 3) I've done so with my Crusader. And damn, what a fun character to play with. At the moment, I'm at such a stage with the character that I can easily do Torment VI rifts without dying and relatively quickly. With that, I've discovered a really quick and painless way to farm Death's Breath (which automatically also helps with farming Blood Shards). Death's Breath is a crafting material you need for most Legendary and Set recipes, and of course, to use on Kanai's Cube (which is where I use it mostly). Wi...

How to fix Borderlands 2 coop-over-the-internet LAG

Image
My buddy and I really like to do coop games with Borderlands 2, but could never really enjoy it properly. It's quite a common problem that the game experiences LAG when you play over the internet. It turned out that to fix the problem, we had to get a VPN going, but trust me, it's easier than it sounds! At first I tried doing it with Windows 7's built in tools, but I don't think I did it right (it also included setting up port forwarding on your router and stuff like that...). My friend told me that they always used Teamviewer at his previous work, and he remembered something about it have VPN functionality as well... We both got that up and running, and without too much hassle he connected to me and our VPN was set up. We were blown away with the performance of the game now, it really made a huge difference! One of us (usually the guy not hosting the game) experienced hectic LAG (imagine shooting in the game, and the bullet only starts about a second later!), but...

How to get private co-op to work in Far Cry 3

Image
Last night my good buddy and I decided to give Far Cry 3's co-op campaign a chance. We both like the single player game, but haven't played any form of multiplayer on it, and I knew it's got a dedicated co-op set of maps, so we thought what the hell... We started the game, and discovered we needed to be friends on Uplay first, so we did that, and fired up the game again, and went into the Co-op section, I hosted a private match, invited my friend and that was as easy as that! We got in no problem whatsoever! Damn what a fun experience! Just tons of baddies to kill, and with us chatting and coordinating with voip it was really great! We took our dinner break, and when we got back, the game didn't want to load. It just kept on saying "can't join game". What a huge pain this turned out to be - the only thing that changed since 30 minutes before that, was we now both had level 10 characters instead of brand new players. We hit Google, and saw all kin...
