Well it's great for when it came out and still good today. Of-course the AC66 router is better now and there's also the AC68 and newer ones such as that. Netgear also has the R7000 which is beasty but pretty top specs.

 

It all boils down on your needs and haves (as in how much money you have to spend).

I went for the AC66U over the N66U. By the time I was spending that much I figured I might as well get AC and be more future proofed.

 

If I did it again I'd build my own out of one of the little kit systems posted here frequently. Didn't know how affordable they were when I was upgrading my router.

I got one here , using it with the Virgin Media Superhub in 'modem only' mode , also got one of those ASUS N53 Dual band dongles.

 

So I have 3 PC's , one wired, another across the room with the N53 dongle using the 5Ghz band exclusively, 3rd PC with another cheapo dongle using 2.5Ghz.

 

also a tablet and various other family stuff ... xbox, playstations etc when needed , seems to work OK so far, although I could most likely do a lot more tweaking with it if I knew more about whats going on!

    • RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 and Voidwrought are free on the Epic Games Store

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 and Voidwrought are free on the Epic Games Store by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe PC gamers can now jump in and grab two more games to keep this week, as the Epic Games Store's ever-present giveaway promotion has just gone through another refresh. Replacing last week's Citizen Sleeper and Robobeat offers, the store has brought in RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 Complete Edition and Voidwrought to keep. From the duo, Roller Coaster Tycoon 3: Complete Edition is an enhanced version of the classic title that was originally released in 2004. It comes with enhancements such as widescreen and 1080p resolution support, as well as increased compatibility with modern PC hardware. It also comes bundled with all the extra content from the Soaked! and Wild! expansion packs. "Control park finances, shops, services and staff to succeed in dozens of scenarios," reads the description. "Become a true tycoon and embark on your promising new career, or create your ideal park without money woes in sandbox mode. Satisfy your guests’ needs and keep your park running smoothly to succeed." If management is not your style, Voidwrought lands as a 2D action-platformer featuring hand-drawn cosmic horrors. The title touts tight platforming and close‑quarters combat, all brought together with a strong emphasis on mobility. "Descend below the star-scorched surface and explore the multidimensional depths below," says the studio Powersnake about the game. "Witness the corrupted revelry of the Court, lose yourself in the icy tunnels of the Old Waters, and discover the grim fate of the Abandoned Expedition." The RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 Complete Edition and Voidwrought giveaways are set to run until June 25 on the Epic Games Store, giving PC gamers seven days to claim the latest offer. Once this closes out, new freebies will take their place on the same day as always. Don't forget that mobile gamers can check out the Epic Game Store's weekly giveaways on Android and iOS to grab a freebie there as well.

      I have a feeling this memory shortage issues are going to linger 6-8 years so until and unless Chinese memory floods the markets we are doomed
