PC Specialist Vanquish 670XM Gaming System Review

Max Payne 3 is a third-person shooter in which the player assumes the role of its titular character, Max Payne. Max Payne 3 features a similar over-the-shoulder camera as its predecessors, with the addition of a cover mechanic, while also retaining much of the same run-and-gun style of gameplay. Max Payne 3 also marks the return of bullet-time in action sequences, for which the franchise is notable. In bullet-time it is possible to see every bullet strike an enemy in detail. New to the series is a “Last Stand” mechanic, which gives the player a grace period after losing all health during which time the player may kill the enemy that wounded them in order to continue playing, however this mechanic is only usable if the player has one or more bottles of painkillers in their possession.

We use Direct X 11 and a mixture of high image quality settings with 2 times Anti Aliasing. At these settings the game demands 1117MB of video memory.

At these settings the system averages 62 frames per second, dropping to 47 fps in the most intensive sections of the environment. A perfectly smooth gaming experience throughout. There is some additional headroom for higher AA settings if desired.

Tryx Luca L70 Case Review – needs a lot more work

The Tryx Luca L70 had some negative press at launch but is it really that bad?

  1. thats very nicely put together. good attention to detail.

  2. Cooler Master case choice is good, they cool very very well without much noise., I have one !

  3. Good build, impressed with the spec too, nothing ‘weak’ in it that seems to be them just clearing stock to ill informed customers

  4. Cooler Master cases do use good fans, its a point that I liked to see being made. It sounds like such a minor thing to bring up, but I bought a Xigmatek case last year or 18 months ago and I had to replace all the fans in it. Some companies just buy the cheapest fans possible and try to maximise their profit. Long term it just doesnt work.
