Hey everyone, my wife works at PlanetPlay and they've put together a charity game bundle supporting UNICEF. I bought a copy to support her and the charity, then bought another few full packs to give away here.

I'm proud of her and wanted to help get a few more eyes on it. Hopefully someone here gets some games they'll enjoy out of it too. Two people will get all 10 games and then I have Peak and Vampire Crawlers to give away from my own bundle:

• Assetto Corsa Competizione
• Bahamut and the Waqwaq Tree
• Blue Prince
• Everything is Crab: The Animal Evolution Roguelite
• PEAK
• Riders Republic
• Roombattle
• Snufkin: Melody of Moominvalley
• Train Sim World 6
• Vampire Crawlers: The Turbo Wildcard from Vampire Survivors

They're global Steam keys, and I paid for the packs myself, not given or anything.

To enter, just leave a comment saying which game you'd play first and something you're grateful for in your life. One entry per person.

I'll randomly pick two full pack winners and one of each my keys, mention if you want Peak or Vampire Crawlers on 10/18/2026 at 3 PM EST.

I'll PM the winners the keys and update this post once everyone has been selected.

Here's the bundle if you'd like to have a look. PlanetPlay is donating 100% of its net profits from it to UNICEF's work for children.

If there's something in there you'd enjoy, I'd really appreciate you supporting it too.

You don't need to buy anything or visit the site to enter. I just wanted to help my wife out a bit and share some games with you all.

Its amazing how fast PS5 Emulation has gotten. Its kinda wild. I have a few test of Demon Souls at 4K coming over the next few days. Full Video Here . Check it out.

I’m replacing my LG C2 with a new Samsung 4K 240Hz monitor to revamp my setup and free up an HDMI port to run a cable to my living room TV. The C2 was wall-mounted with a pretty flush mount, so naturally, the DisplayPort cable sticking out nearly 2 inches is a problem. 😑
Why, Samsung? Why couldn’t you position the ports like a normal person? Now I’m about to go down the rabbit hole of finding right-angle adapters that can actually handle a DisplayPort 2.1 signal. Here goes nothing. 🫠
On a side note the Samsung G80SH 32” is a heck of a monitor. Leaps and bounds better than my C2.

I know I still need a graphics card and two more fans. I’m still saving for those but for now it’ll work.

I want to get a dual monitor arm for my setup to free up space but I got this metal bar in the way. My brother recommended this MSI monitor arm but I’m unsure if the clamp would fit due to the bar being in the way.(sorry for no amazon link posting this from phone and don’t know how to get the link working 🤦‍♂️) I can’t drill holes in my desk so I have to use some sort of clamp. Does it look like it could fit or should I look at other monitor arms? Suggestions?

As the title says, found a NVME for the 2nd slot after about 10 hours of usage, popped it open to find this, double checked the receipt and it was not marked as open box, I hope it’s remaining oils and not someone having a bad day 😂

Cost me a bit over 3k for all these parts.

Around 420 usd, I would call this a scam. A9 9400..... In 2026...😂 Big companies shouldn't be allowed to do this, fool ppl with high number high performance shit

I have updated the patch pack with some patches to improve performance at the cost of losing graphic quality.
I will make another video with more patches...

Let me tell you it was amazing watching TV with PIP mode

Actually I got it around two months ago but I forgot to post about it :/

RTX 5080 (got it when the prices weren't that bad yet, ~1350$), 9800X3D, 32GB DDR5 (CL36 unfortunately)

Had been saving for 2-3 years, I gave classes to younger kids as a side gig, very underrated btw, made around $300 a month

Got my PC last July, does great for gaming, work, and browsing. Could have gotten a better deal on a pre-built one but I already got it so it is what is it.

AMD 9 9900X

RTX 5060 Ti 16GB

MSI MAG B850 Tomahawk Max WiFi

Samsung 9100 Pro 1TB + Lexar NQ780 512GB

TeamGroup T-Force Delta RGB DDR5 (2x16GB) 6000MHz CL30

Corsair RM850x 850W

Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE with Arctic P12 Fans

Fractal Design Meshify 2 Compact with Arctic P12 Case Fans

CyberPower PFC Sine Wave NEMA 1350 VA

Total Cost = $2700

This is the only thing I actually considered buying at an absurd price but I held off and said I can wait. So excited to try it, seems like the perfect controller for me.
