aurora dusk: steam age looks like an interesting game. i would have purchased it if i could but, my bank have blocked steam. though it is on the gog dream list. i already voted for it but, it would help if you also did.

seen you mention this, was wondering can't you use preloads/loadable cards, steam cards, or the like?

You must of replaced the motherboard too then because there was no upgrade beyond the 6950X for X99 systems.

well seeing as a 6850k exists, then upgrading to a 6950x means I didn't upgrade the board.

You just said you didn't update that comment with your system specs and it already shows the 6950X, then you said you had something not in that post and then upgraded later.. geeze. Make up your mind already. You can't even figure out what you're writing in your own comments.🤪🤪

what are you on about?

not sure what your trying to twist into something.

but I don't need to make up my mind, I clearly stated I upgraded the cpu, common sense dictates the person obviously moved from an earlier cpu, seeing as I have the last one made for the platform.

ie.. moving from 6850k to a 6950x and as well, if I upgraded the mobo, I would have said so.

next time ask before assuming and still trying to capitalize on the gotchas, it ain't working.

bye, convo over, have a nice day

You can also type: dir /x

This will list the "8.3" file name of everything and you can use that too for exe's with spaces in them, then you wouldn't have to use " " quotes every time.

For example:
PROGRA~1 = Program Files
PROGRA~2 = Program Files (x86)
