     Nvidia RTX 4000 Super specs leak is VRAM heaven

Rumored Nvidia RTX 4000 Super specs have just leaked, and if there's any truth to them, we've got a lot to be excited about. Apparently, we're going to be getting souped-up Super versions of all four of the standard 40-series cards, from the Nvidia RTX 4060 to the Nvidia RTX 4090. With VRAM aplenty and surprisingly low prices, we can't wait to see if the whispers are true, with a potential reveal date of Q4 2023 for the RTX 4070 Super and RTX 4080 Super.

     Blizzard still hasn't fixed that devilish Diablo 4 memory leak

To say Diablo 4's launch is a success would be an understatement, with the RPG's servers coping just fine despite the flocks of gamers already playing a few days early after purchasing the game's 'Ultimate Edition'. Of course, the real test will come as the rest of the player base arrives after the early access period, but early indications suggest Blizzard's decision to run a Server Slam event to identify any problems before launch day was a sensible one. We are noticing some gremlins, or more appropriately, demons, in the system, though, like this irritating memory leak issue.

Looking for the location of all the Diablo 4 Strongholds? Wandering aimlessly around Sanctuary, you will discover one of these bastions of evil. A fortified location housing Lilith's minions, Strongholds are one of the toughest challenges you'll face out in the open but can reward you with high-end gear if conquered.

Diablo 4 introduces a new mechanic, Strongholds, which are similar to a dungeon, only housed in the overworld. There are intense groups of enemies, bosses, and missions to complete in the area, and completing a Stronghold will reward you with XP for your chosen pick of the five Diablo 4 classes, high-end gear to make the best Diablo 4 builds, and Renown, and will also transform the site into a new town hub, complete with vendors and side quests to complete.

     Evercore Heroes' PvE format isn't

Evercore Heroes' unique selling point is the competitive PvE experience. Unlike Riot Games' MOBA League of Legends, you won't be slaying enemy players; instead, you take on huge AI bosses in a race to the finish line - akin more to the World of Warcraft Race to World First tournament. Evercore Heroes' format is quite unlike anything we've ever seen before, but how have players reacted? I asked Vela Games' marketing operations lead, Trey Douglas.

     Best Diablo 4 Druid build

What is the best Diablo 4 Druid build? If you decide to get your grubby little paws dirty with the Druid class, you should know that this bestial class has dominion over the elements and spirit animals that join their cause. However, their main method of attack is to indulge their savage side and shift into a Werebeast to tear their demonic foes to shreds. Of all the classes in the series, they're perhaps the most underused, but Diablo 4 makes an effort to make them appealing.

To stand a chance against the forces of evil, you'll need to make the best Diablo 4 Druid build. Skills for one of the strongest Diablo 4 classes can lead you in several directions, with wolves, ravens, and even plant monsters among the companions on offer. Nature also governs the Druid's magic skills, with the best of them having domain over the earth, wind, and lightning elements. If you've seen this build before, we've tweaked it a bit based on some findings during the early access period, so be sure to check below for our findings.

     Honkai Star Rail relics

How do you use Honkai Star Rail relics? Relics are one of the primary ways you can improve a character's stats, and ignoring them can come at a significant cost to your progression. If you feel like your characters are slightly too underpowered for the challenges appropriate for your level, it's highly likely that subpar relics are the cause. To keep your team at the top of their game, we've compiled everything you need to know about HSR relics into one handy guide.

Honkai Star Rail relics behave like artifacts in Genshin Impact, so any seasoned Hoyoverse fans should have no trouble picking up this system. They also require a substantial amount of time, energy, and resources to both acquire and upgrade, so we highly recommend consulting our Honkai Star Rail tier list to get an idea of which characters deserve that investment. If you find your roster leans toward the lower tiers, our Honkai Star Rail Stellar Jade farming guide should be your next stop, so you can be in with a chance to pull your next five-star in Honkai Star Rail banners. In the meantime, here's how to unlock, get, and upgrade your HSR relics.

Dungeons are a great way to earn XP, farm gear, and gain some special aspects for your class.

Although you can attempt any Diablo 4 dungeon once it has been discovered, you may want to do some research on your current class and see which dungeon rewards you with the most effective Aspect for your current build.

     Diablo 4 runes and runewords explained

What are Diablo 4 runes and runewords? The feature is one Diablo fans will recognize. The idea was that you could combine individual runes into runewords and insert them into socketed items, adding to their powers and abilities. But with no runes in Diablo 4 just yet, we - like you - are eager to know whether they're coming, so we asked the devs, of course.

We know that D2's beloved runeword system was not in the game at launch, and will not be for some time - but that doesn't mean they're not making their way to Diablo 4 in the future. Whichever of the five Diablo 4 classes you choose, runes would be combined and added to your items, just like gems, to increase their abilities. So what do we know about Diablo 4 runes, runewords, and when they're coming to the game?

     Diablo 4 Ashava spawn times, location, and how to beat

How do I defeat Diablo 4 Ashava? This world boss is by far and away one of the toughest challenges in the early game. Ashava the Pestilent effortlessly steals the lives of wayward adventurers using its scythed talons – but you won't find her lurking at the end of a dungeon. Instead, Ashava's hellish portal only appears at set times. She's easy to miss, but we're here to help ensure you both locate and beat her within her set spawn times.

While Ashava is just one Diablo 4 world boss of many, she's the one you're most likely to encounter given that she spawns in the first region of the Diablo 4 map. While this makes her technically one of the easiest, Ashava scales to your level, so you'll find her a tough opponent regardless of which Diablo 4 classes you choose to play. We've taken her down, so here are all the tips we have to help you beat Ashava the Pestilent, as well as her location and spawn times.

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth Has 'Preparations' if You Missed Part 1 of the Remake

There's yet another Final Fantasy VII Rebirth comment, and this time it suggests people who missed Remake will have a way to still catch up in part 2. Co-Director Motomu Toriyama is behind the latest bit of developer commentary. In his part, he noted there are "preparations" in place in case someone starts the second entry in the new trilogy without having played the first.

Here's the full statement. It doesn't mention exactly what those "preparations" might be. It could be something like an in-game catch-up system that details the events of the first installment.

A third comment also appeared on June 4, 2023. It noted that part 2 of Final Fantasy VII Remake would focus on "each character's destiny" during the story.

The first comment from Producer Yoshinori Kitase said they were still determining a release date for the game. The second noted part 2 would open up more and offer more places to explore after Final Fantasy VII Remake's Midgar.

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth is expected to come to the PS5 in Winter 2023. Final Fantasy VII Remake is available for the PS4, PS5, and PC.

The post Final Fantasy VII Rebirth Has 'Preparations' if You Missed Part 1 of the Remake appeared first on Siliconera.

     Tears Of The Kingdom Rushrooms GuideRushrooms allow Link to boost his movement speed in Tears of the Kingdom. They're really useful for when you're trekking across large portions of Hyrule and don't have a horse or a vehicle to use. It's also just a lot of fun to dash around the place. In fact, it reminds me of the good old days with the Bunny Hood in Majora's Mask. And if you want to relive that joy too, here are the best ways to get Rushrooms in Tears of the Kingdom. Tears of the Kingdom: Where to find Rushrooms Unfortunately, Rushrooms are one of the trickier fungi to farm in Tears of the Kingdom. Most other mushrooms grow on the ground and are very easy to spot. But Rushrooms tend to grow on the walls of mountains and similarly rough terrain. So spotting them from a distance can be quite difficult. Some things do work in our favor though. Firstly, Rushrooms have a large distinct shape that sets them apart from other mushrooms.
