AMD have delayed the Ryzen 9 3950X and 3rd generation Threadripper until November

This is almost certainly happening due to the fact everyone is using 7nm.
Some big companies like Apple are EATING up 7nm process node fab time, he who pays more gets priority basically.
TSMC has said fab time has a latency of 6 or more months now, whereas before it was only 2months.
That's a big OUCH for AMD and anyone else relying on the process for AFFORDABLE electronics (Apple doesn't need to worry about affordability, because of blind consumerism)

You can expect 7nm products to go up in price, just in time for the recession. lol

The Humble Monthly has expanded to add BATTLETECH expansions plus Sonic Mania

Got it, worked out to $16.47 aud. I wasn't keen on getting it before without the expansions which cost a pretty penny on steam.

A French court has ruled that Valve should allow people to re-sell their digital games

Maybe something can be done where some of the resell value goes to the developer. Like a %10-20 amount or something.

Gothic 3 is one of the games atm that runs extremely poorly with D9VK (and wined3d). Reasons unknown.

This shouldn't be needed if you use Proton-GE release (force it via properties works best).

Allot of the mouse capture issues are related to people with more then 1 monitor, which apparently is not many of us. This results in the problem being prevalent apparently since testing is mostly done on single monitor setups.

two games on my bucket list I'd like to work better (apart from EAC/Battleye stuff),

Gothic3-FGEE and Space Engineers, both of these games have 'significant' issues relating to performance.

Might do a couple APITRACE in windows10 for them and upload that, might help somewhere down the line.

Reminds me a bit of breath of the wild on switch (I don't do Nintendo btw).

While not on Linux officially, Far Cry New Dawn seems to work amazingly well on Linux

Quoting: Whitewolfe80Honestly I preferred new dawn it the story was more interesting and if you want to find out what happens to the two main characters from farcry 5 its all there.
I main issue with it is that it's quite unrealistic. Nukes blast the world, yet this area somehow thrives because of it.. Seems like an excuse to keep same assets really. Guess I'm just too use to the harsh fallout universe
(even tho its unrealistic also since if such mayhem was going on there would be no humans left!)
