Hello here I'm getting Sm-g955fd in S8 Plus. Is it ok to buy this because I don't think it's international.

Kindly I want to buy it today.

G955FD is international unlocked (hence the dual sim) just as G935FD is international S7 Edge its the Exynos variant so its as international as it gets ,now what region CSC you get depends on your vendor,I believe there are several CSC G955FD but then again its just the software and bloat in it

The SM-G955FD is the international variant; there's absolutely no difference between this and the 955F apart from a SIM slot; the updates are same, rooting methods are same, heck, even the basebands are same. They can even share custom ROMs from one another without really having any issues. As for the CSC, the S8 and S8+ are now offering multi-CSC (OXM), so as soon as you put in your SIM, it will detect the region and change according to that. As for the Pakistan CSC getting updates, yes, I just received an OTA 2 days ago for the red tint fix (my unit didn't have any)

    The cross gen era really made people think 60fps would be a new standard lol

    Welp, done with Hellblade 2. Thoroughly disappointed. Such a nothing burger after the unique experience of the first game.

    I have a PS5 but I am not satisfied with the experience. I am currently saving for a 4080 64 GB rig soon. Bit will wait for Pro if performance improves. This gen has been so bad I don't plan on buying consoles anymore for AAA gaming.

    Both PS and Xbox have been a flop this gen as they can barely maintain 30 fps in a lot of AAA games th.

    As per WCCF Tech review, Xbox Series X doesn't even maintain a consistent FPS and sometimes drops into the mid-20fps range. That's unacceptable, tbh.

    Score 1 for game pass. I wouldn't pay full price for this at retail either.

    Just downloaded my first legit digital PC game on GoG at a discount of $8: Two Point Hospital. The same team behind Theme Hospital Two Point Studios now part of Sega. And I am having more fun than most recent AAA games except of course BG3.

    Still, I don't like either Sony or Microsoft as they are focusing more on corporate greed than delighting customers. PC gaming is best of gaming and worth every penny.

    PC Gamer score of 58/100 for Hellblade 2??? Is it really worse than Gollum that was 64/100? Microsoft games can't even come close to high scores of Sony exclusives apparently.

    About the Microsoft (and Sony) debate, I feel both have become too greedy and losing their minds over corporate greed. Personally, I will never buy any console next gen and switch to PC gaming where democracy reins.
