Buying a new graphics card can be an expensive proposition for would-be PC upgraders, so to help you get the best price on today’s [cms-block]s, we’ve rounded up all the cheapest graphics card deals you can buy right now. And to help sweeten the deal, Nvidia have started a new free game bundle on any RTX card purchase, getting you a copy of Death Stranding if you buy one before the end of July, while AMD are bundling in Godfall and World Of Warcraft’s Shadowlands expansion with all RX 5000 GPUs.

Graphics card deal prices haven’t moved a huge amount this week, but generally they’re heading in the right direction (that is, downwards), so to help you keep track of what’s around going on right now, we’ve put together this list of all the best graphics card prices so you can see exactly how they compare against one another. Regardless of whether you’re upgrading your PC or building a new PC from scratch, here are the cheapest graphics card deals on offer this week.

The 25 pictures in a cluster foxer are arranged in 5 discretely/discreetly themed clusters. Pictures in a particular cluster must be cardinally contiguous to be valid. For example, a1, b1, c1, d1, d2 is a possible cluster, unlike a2, b2, c2, d2, e3. To fully defox today’s enlargeable puzzle identify the themes and constituent images of all five clusters. (more…)

Watching the audience during the Flare Path Film Club showing of Greyhound was almost as interesting as watching the movie. The collective nod of approval when the bubble-spewing Bold canister made its appearance… the widespread chin-scratching when the wolfpack taunted the convoy over the radio… the outbreak of nose-wrinkling when the director tried to suggest that two escorts versus a crippled/surfaced U-boat was a nailbiting contest… all highly revealing.

If you’re feeling sore about missing that one big game deal you wanted during Steam’s Summer Sale, then Green Man Gaming’s Summer Sale may be just the remedy you’re looking for. For the next few weeks, GMG have slashed prices on loads of today’s top games, including Red Dead Redemption 2, Sekiro, The Outer Worlds, XCOM Chimera Squad, Borderlands 3 and loads more. And as your dutiful deals herald, it’s only right that I’ve picked out some of the best deals below.

Rejoice, for the Monster Train has been updated. Cry, for your favourite cards are probably worse now. Yesterday’s patch to Shiny Shoe’s splendid roguelike deckbuilder introduced optional mututators that tweak the rules for each run, but I’m more struck by the balance changes. Shiny Shoe say they’ve gone after “the outliers”, aiming for a state where choosing a certain card is “never a ‘no-brainer'”. That’s reasonable, but it does make me long for Dota’s balancing philosophy where buffs were always prioritised over nerfs.

It’s not all bad. Morsels look pretty strong now.

My [cms-block] recommendation, the excellent AOC 24G2U has been pretty difficult to get hold of here in the UK for a number of months now, with prices steadily creeping upwards as stock levels continue to dwindle. Happily, a very good alternative has recently sprung into view in the form of LG’s 24GL650, which is one of Nvidia’s officially certified[cms-block] with a 144Hz refresh rate and is now down to £192 over at Ebuyer.

I was expecting Surgeon Simulator 2 to have more wacky procedures to fumble my way through, and it does. I was not expecting its level editor to let four players run around together, building everything from basketball courts and bowling alleys to escape rooms and Dance Dance Revolution machines. A new trailer for the Bossa Labs Creation Mode shows off those and more, as well as announcing a release date of August 28th. Come see:

Death Stranding

, the walking simulator about the sad Deliveroo man, is finally out on PC, allowing thousands of keyboard clackers to decode the complex metaphors embedded within such characters as “Mama”, a woman with a baby, and “Heartman”, a man with a pacemaker, played here by an aging and tired Danny Wallace. Look beyond the sub-textual nuance of such masterful creations, however, and you will find a half-decent delivery ‘em up. But is reliable postboy Sam Porter Bridges (a transporter who builds bridges) one of the 7 best couriers in PC games? You can find out by reading closely between the lines of this list.

I am not ashamed to admit that it was Final Fantasy X-2, not Final Fantasy X, that made me want to get a PlayStation 2. So fervent was my desire for this game that I even entered a text competition on the telly to try and win one. Needless to say, I was not successful. Still, it was just what I needed to push me over the edge. I was vaguely aware of FFX and Yuna and Tidus and all of that back in the early noughties, but man alive, Yuna just looked so damn cool in X-2 with her guns and new short hair/mad pony-tail combo, and I was also precisely the right age for Paine to seem like a total badass. It was the perfect storm of all my teenage passions, and I still look back on it fondly even though we all know it’s a total trash fire and innately inferior to X proper.

The Darkness might be an intimidating mass of deadly triangles, but Destiny 2 has more grounded concerns to worry about right now. As Bungie continue to wrestle with life under the Covid-19 pandemic, they’ve postponed the release of the game’s next big expansion to give themselves more breathing room. Destiny 2: Beyond Light will now release just under two months after its planned September release, launching instead on November 10th.
