Take-Two sends a C&D letter to GTA IV’s OpenIV mod team, terminating its ten-year development

Sad news for the modding community of Grand Theft Auto IV as Take-Two has sent a C&D notice to the development team of the OpenIV mod for GTA IV. As a result of that, the team decided to stop working and distributing OpenIV.

>>Sh!t nº 1.

Grand Theft Auto V’s Liberty City total conversion mod also gets shut down

It was only a matter of time until the Liberty City total conversion for GTA V was shut down, especially after what happened with OpenIV. After all, the team behind this total conversion mod was the same one responsible for OpenIV. As such, we are sad to inform you that the Liberty City mod has been cancelled.

>>And sh!t nº 2.

And my 1080 has arrived thus making my new PC build complete!

Now the reason why it is not the MSI 1080 is cause 1080s just got a new promo which is free Destiny 2 but I bought it couple of days before and newegg was being like "nooo, you bought it slighty before the promo" so I am refunding that and ordered the Evga 1080 FTW from amazon instead which costs about $30 more but the good news is, it is also clocked a lot higher so... Not the worst thing in the world and of course, free Destiny 2.

I guess I should post some nudes



Yea yea cable management but shush

Dunno how to tell you but I think you forgot to put in a CPU cooler.

Also it seems there is some weird white plastic stuck to your case at the top right.

Don't be bad. Ryzen'a stock cooler is good enough, certainly better than the crappy Intel stock cooler.

That said, if the plan is to overclock the CPU, something better is needed to achieve a 3.9-4.0GHz mark.

Provided you didn't loose out on the silicon lottery and can hit those clocks. :P

I have seen some pretty terribly clocking parts even with a ton of volts, different boards, good cooling. etc'.

Well, most reviews I've seen have managed to achieve between 3.8 and 4.0GHz, even with retail purchased processors. I've only been a bit optimistic in the low end.

But it's curious how Ryzen can't go beyond those 4.0GHz, it's like a wall or something.

I have seen chips struggle to hit 3.8ghz.
It's a great Architecture. I personally think it's down to fabrication. Intel has such a big advantage being on a proper 14nm process... Basically once you hit 4ghz you hit the power wall where you need a massive 1.4-1.45v. Sadly that also accellerates the affects of electromigration.

I think once Zen+ hits we might see some better clock scaling and is IMHO when Ryzen will truly start to come into it's own.

GloFo has announced that their 7nm process in now available, with production available in the first half of 2018, and volume production in the second half of the same year:

That's when we'll see Zen+ and, if nothing else happens, Navi.

I made a thread for them 3 news storys here http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=229619&page=1# About GTA Modding C&D

And here http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=229620 about Persona and Yakuza might come to PC .

Both storys worthy of their own threads , So i hope you dont mind?.

Global Foundries claimed they would deliver mass production of 14 nm on late 2014, though. To add insult to injury, that was a forecast for only some 6 months into the future...

Being realistic, their pseudo 7 nm node won't be ready for AMD GPUs and CPUs until mid to late 2019, or even early 2020. And that's assuming that will be a long node suited for big CPUs and GPUs instead of a stop-gap like 20 nm on their way to 7 nm EUV.

It's entirely feasible, though it might seem unlikely, given the profusion of different nodes being promised nowadays, that AMD and maybe even Nvidia might be stuck again some 4-5 years on the same node.

At least Intel also doesn't seem to release anything beyond their 10 nm (comparable to GloFo and TSMC's 7 nm) until 2022 or so, and the 14 nm isn't that bad - only half a node behind Intel on gate and pitch size, and actually the Ryzen chips deliver a denser transitor count than the Lakes.
