Back in December, I made the decision that I was going to play “Next Gen Fighters aka SF6” on the PS5. And with that decision, I also made the choice of upgrading the monitors. A birthday and Christmas present to myself, I went and bought everything I needed (at least Continue Reading
Noir HD Upgrade
