Smarttube next is the bleeding edge beta version, it gets fixed much faster and supposedly has more bugs though I've never ran into one

Yeah that's about right

It's not incredible. The crew 2 is overall a very okay game that didn't need to exist, they could have easily remastered the crew 1 and make a better game. The coop is basically you get to play through any race including most story related ones with members of your party and if someone from your party wins you all get the progression. This means nothing as progressing is generally quite easy since the bots usually have way worse cars than you because getting parts upgrades is easy. Also the story isn't anything to write home about, it's the now classic "influencer drives car good", unlike the crew 1 which at least tried.

I've finished all missions.

Honestly? It's fine. The game is worse than the crew 1 (the map is considerably smaller despite both depicting the US, and the upgrade system feels worthless), but I've never felt the need to pay to get anything, and beyond 1 pop up on login, I've never even looked or been made to look at the store. If you're after top performance in online races then probably most people in the top of the rankings paid to be there, but imo the crew 2 is simply not a good multiplayer competition game. For solo or coop, you'll outclass the bots most of the time, the challenge is against yourself.

It's a gigabyte ab350m gaming-3 rev 1.0. it boots grub fine but then crashes right after displaying "loading Linux 6.x", CPU led flashes then dram led stays on, I have to turn it off with the PSU switch.

Either it's a rev 1.0 bug which is a thing on those motherboards, or the CPU (or igpu) is defective.

I'm currently waiting on support from both the seller and gigabyte but I don't expect anything out of it, though I'm still yet to test it in a different motherboard.

Oh wow congrats, I'm currently in the struggle of stretching an ab350m to accept a 4600G and failing.

You're right, you should hit PCIe 3 speeds and it's weird, but the fact that the drives swap speeds depending on how they're plugged in points to either drivers or the chipset.

[–] themoonisacheese@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 days ago (5 children)

I'm not fully familiar with the overheads associated with all things going on on a chipset, but it's not unreasonable to think that this workload, plus whatever the chipset has to do (hardware management tasks mostly), as well as the CPU's other tasks on similar interfaces that might saturate the IO die/controller, would influence this.

B350 isn't a very fast chipset to begin with, and I'm willing to bet the CPU in such a motherboard isn't exactly current-gen either. Are you sure you're even running at PCIe 3.0 speeds too? There are 2.0 only CPUs available for AM4.

It might be that the data to both disks saturates a common link before the second disk reaches full iops capability, and thus the driver then writes at full speed on one disk and at half speed on the other, for twice as long.

I heard good word about Paradise Killer, in which you're also a detective and must figure out the truth

The outer wilds is amazing. You should play it.

My hot take was that once it stopped being online-only, SimCity 2012 was actually quite an ok game. It got abandoned and has a bit of a balance problem (you can never ever ever build enough housing), and I'm not saying the game is perfect but it's quite serviceable and it looks very good, especially with the DLC. Personally I enjoyed it a lot, despite it's issues.
