Casual 673 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 I haven't reformated this one since I built it ~1.5 years ago. Part of me wants to cause I like a fresh start and it feels dirty not to, I feel like back in the day I would reformat every 6 months or so. At the same time, there doesn't really seem to be a need to do that these days, Windows is much more efficient at keeping things clean. It's also a pain in the ass because I do have quite a bit more stuff now than I would have back then. do you guys bother with doing it regularly? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

sugarhigh 451 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Yes I probably do it once or twice a year. USB storage is so cheap these days, I usually do a whole disk backup and install an OS fresh. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kaz 2,394 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 (edited) last time I did was right before GODpunk release. I still use HDD so I wanna get one or two SSD and do a clean install, no I idea how I managed to play new games like this. Edited March 14 by kaz Quote Link to post Share on other sites

kaz 2,394 Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 The best part is I had no problem playing the new games. The only game that I had some weird loading moments was Scorn, where everything was empty and the textures were taking 10 seconds to load - BUT this happened like three times in the entire playthrough so...
