GTA V: Vulcar Pilot Assist 4.0
updated
WT745 has been stripped for parts as it's physically in bad condition. Worked perfectly otherwise, short of the door button being dead.
Other than that, it's in great condition for it's age, with the usual scratches and a burnt-in coffee stain on the door trim for some reason. This W908 is one of the last OG 900 Series machines, this one being built on September 24th 1997.
Something I also noticed: GTA V looks MUCH, MUCH nicer with a Nvidia card than my 6900 XT in the main rig. The sun has godrays, reflections on TT5/Rstein's windows or grille are not broken and look as they should with 8x Reflection AA. Only issue i'm getting is strange pop-in.
Recorded using ShadowPlay on my AI/VR rig, featuring a 5800X3D, 64GB of B-Die at 3200 CL14 using a built-in memory profile of my ASUS C8DH, a Inno3D RTX 4090 iChill Frostbite ULTRA with the Galax HoF 666W vBIOS (so the card runs at 1.1V as it should) and a custom loop composed of dual 420 mm rads plus 3x480 as external water cooling.
This all is powered by a Corsair AX1600i since I originally intended on going dual 3090 Ti for AI stuff. Might still do that if I ever go off the deep end with it though, and move the 4090 to my main rig.
Dirty as hell though, and it takes forever to do a load of laundry compared to the WT745 or 20005.
Fun fact: this is my newest machine so far, and it's also my first AEG.
This machine is now sold.
This thing has a absolutely batshit insane amount of coilwhine.
Aside from being horribly dirty, it works perfectly and is whisper quiet. Well, aside from the drain pump which i'll probably replace some time before she'll take it to her new home.
The mother of the seller I bought it from unfortunately died so this 7705 and a Adamant/W650 washing machine came up for grabs. It's in AWESOME condition for a almost 27 year old (9603 date code) machine!
Yes, I cancelled the final spin of the WT745. The other 770 is also being stripped for parts since it's missing a wash pump anyways.

This demo video for the Peugeot Proxima concept car won first place in the Corporate Communication category. If you ask me the graphics in this video wouldn't stand out in something like TRON!

Scored a Vega 64 Nitro+ in box earlier today. Card could use a clean as it's quite dusty, but it's working and has Samsung VRAM too!
Overclocked to 1650 MHz at 1100mV with 1000 MHz HBM2. Bykski waterblock is on order!
You can definitely see a few differences compared to the final version of P2027, the Titan Uplink room being radically different for instance.
Reuploaded in the hopes the quality will be slightly better than the original upload by AdDiCt Zorz.
Music is The Asphyxia of the Foetus by Social Deformity.
Answer: this video. Was originally planning on doing a video among the lines of "can you break GTA V by going 5000 mph?" but this happened instead.
Did you know the map in GTA V is actually spherical and beyond that point the game goes completely crazy?
Washing my softshell coat once again in moms her W4146, using Coop/G'woon delicate detergent on Outdoor 40 with Water Plus enabled. Am hoping to catch the rinses and final spin too.
After this cycle I am also going to impregnate this coat to make it waterproof again.
The T491 next to it is drying some darks on Cupboard Dry+.

Ran on a Dell Precision M6500 Covet with a Nvidia Quadro 5000M and the latest drivers for Fermi, 377 something.
PC specs:
Pentium 4 3.0HT E0 @ 4.05 GHz/1.5V
ASUS P4P800SE with Antinomy's modded BIOS
2GB OCZ DDR400 RAM running at DDR540
MSI GeForce 7600GS Passive
Zalman WB5 waterblock
NZXT E500 PSU
And of course, a Cooler Master Musketeer.
Reserator XT mods:
Aquacomputer D5+Ultitop pump cover, cable modified to be directly in-line with the DC jack on the Reserator XT bypassing the control panel
Koolance QD3 Quick Disconnect Couplings on the Reserator and computer below
Mayhems Ultra Clear tubing
Fleetguard Compleat EG coolant
Arctic P14 PWM PST fan
Track playing in the background is Violence by Le Destroy and The Bait.
Some people complained GTA V has massive texture pop-in issues with high speed driving.
Well, here's TT5/Rstein on Figure8's Top Speed Track going over 1000 km/h and no pop in. Max settings except Grass Quality, 8x AA, 3840x2400 VSR.
Even later in the city the only issue I have is relatively low FPS. And Rstein somehow breaking parts even with the Knight Rider mod enabled :^)
An idea I got by listening to Machine For Screams - 5O-FAR-D0WN: I replaced Metallic Monks with that track, and it makes this place sound very... interesting, to say the least.
New Vegas with your own music (or the excellent NeptuneUK Digital Nightmare mod) makes this game so much better. Not knocking Inon Zur or Mark Morgan's excellent soundtracks though, but having played NV for almost 400 hours the music was starting to become a bit too repetitive.
Listen to Buildzoid's music project and the track in question here: soundcloud.com/machine4screams/5o-far-d0wn
Not surprising, considering the shocks were completely gone. I was speaking to my dad in the start about the new shocks.
Filmed with the F(x)tec Pro1.
This machine is now sold.
Swapped over the one from the 770 that was above it and now I have a working 770 again.
Testing it on Program 6/Final Rinse to check for leaks and if the replacement pump is working correctly.
You can definitely see how much my driving has improved since July: I no longer take corners as agressively, I know when to brake much better, and I still haven't beat my 6:03:839 record :(
Came VERY close though, just 61 miliseconds slower: 6:03:900. Watch my original run here: youtube.com/watch?v=KPiZ8fvrOM0

Remember that multitasking video (youtube.com/watch?v=1mej8X57DIw) I did about my 3950X? Well, let's now try if I can run four games at the same time on one computer.
The answer: Yes, I can, and very well too!
I noticed ReLive hates games patched with Creative ALchemy for some reason, as New Vegas has no sound during recording and is patched with ALchemy to get EAX working. Probably the same reason I also don't get any sound in Hitman: Contracts.
I installed ALchemy to re-enable EAX in Hitman: Contracts and this is the result. Man, the Training Area never sounded so big and echo-y with it enabled.
Sound card in question is a Creative X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Professional set to Game Mode.

3950X, 6900 XT Toxic EE overclocked to what's basically Toxic Boost speeds (2750 MHz) plus a VRAM OC of 2180 MHz and the best of all: Windows 7.
Maybe in the future when i'll waterblock it I can hit 2.9 GHz!
It's working fine though!
Specs aren't that special, i7-3740QM, 32GB RAM and a FirePro M4000.
TT5/RStein on the other hand doesn't glitch out even with lowered suspension. How weird.
DarkViperAU also made a excellent video on this subject: youtube.com/watch?v=hVTPiFtigSU
Gotta kill some time on waiting for some game downloads so here's some hooning around in my Vulcar Ingot Four Thousand just to show off how AWESOME this GPU is. Shame the AIO pump and fans are quite loud, oh well.
1600p VSR, maxed out settings except Grass Quality, and still getting above 60 FPS in Sandy Shores. Card has a very slight (1150mV) undervolt and min/max core frequency are set to 2500/2600 in WattMan. I now have it set to 2730 and 2180 MHz VRAM with Fast Timings enabled.
One thing I did notice too: ReLive recording quality seems to be significantly better compared to the RX480. Compare it to the last video I shot: youtube.com/watch?v=KPiZ8fvrOM0
The strange stuff in the sky at 2:51 is the Nurburgring from the above video.
Specs of said M6700:
i7-3840QM
32GB RAM
Quadro K4000M at stock and then 951/1100
A missing battery, baseplate and keyboard of all things lol
This machine is radically different than the W729 I had in October, this machine has a base plate with float switch (and seems to be downgraded from WPS to a normal rubber hose considering how stupidly long the inlet hose is), Novotronic I controls so no 1/2 load button, and a MRT34 motor instead of the MRT01 the other one had.
And yes, 1:39 is my cat, Rakker.
Specs:
Intel Pentium M 760 @ 2.88 GHz (anything higher is unstable :( need to get me some DDR500 DIMMs!)
ASUS P4P800SE+ASUS CT-479
2GB Kingston HyperX DDR400
MSI Nvidia GeForce 7600GS Passive
nLite'd Windows XP Professional
Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi XtremeMusic
A late 90s Pentium II case with a NZXT E500 as PSU
And above all: a Cooler Master Musketeer like I had in 2004!
For some reason, the latest drivers for the FirePro M8900 are VERY broken and cause blocks to appear in GTA V, even with shadows disabled.
Recorded on a Dell Precision M6600:
i7-2760QM, now a i7-2960XM
FirePro M8900 @ 850/1150 which replaced a dead Quadro 3000M (and was in turn replaced by a Quadro 4000M. And got replaced by a Quadro 5010M!)
And above all: a PremierColor IPS screen which is the reason I bought it in the first place.
Fun fact: the RULLZ capture card can also capture audio over HDMI!
The Asko is doing Program 1 95 Eco with some shop rags and is nearing the end of the prewash and the start of the main wash.
The Miele on the right is doing some whites on Cottons 95, nearing the end of the main wash, a cooldown, interim spin and rinses. Amazing how quiet it is compared to the Asko even though it has the same type of motor!
The Asko is about halfway in the main wash.
So much for being Miele's top of the line machine in 2003, lol. The Asko next to it is from 1995 and only needed a new pump, shocks, door and inlet valves in 26 years time!
The Asko still is halfway the main wash.
Doing a wash on Cottons 95 with some Jumbo detergent to clean it out before being disassembled, as I like working on a clean machine. This is the quietest Miele I have ever owned!
Specs:
Intel Core i7-2760QM
16GB RAM
Nvidia Quadro 3000M @ stock and with damaged VRAM
Windows 7 Ultimate
And above all: a RGBLED IPS display that looks worse than my M6500's WUXGA RGBLED display somehow.
Until now. I even bettered my old track record set with the Vulcar Ingot Four Thousand by 15 seconds.
Some minor mistakes here and there such as Rstein oversteering at 04:20 which caught me completely off-guard. No Pursuit Mode in this run, I might do another run with Pursuit Mode turned on.
Fun fact: the 6:03 lap time would place me at #2 on the leaderboard for fastest lap on the Nordschleife: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_N%C3%BCrburgring_Nordschleife_lap_times#Non-series/non-road-legal
F1 V10 sounds in the background courtesy of: youtube.com/watch?v=thDHfj0WotY
I also replaced the door as it was bent inwards somehow and leaked. (and also dropping the door glass on the floor causing it to shatter, F)
I even managed to set a new personal TT: 51 seconds. Not bad for a 300 mph super station wagon which handling I tuned myself. Next step: the Nurburgring.

Still WIP, the gear ratios could be lower.
