Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation (Steam) runs fine on my Windows 10 RTX 2080ti machine. With the exception that full screen has a title bar.

Holding down 'Insert' on the 10-Key will allow you to look around from within Lara's head, this will help with the camera issues in tight spaces sometimes.

Well rest easy knowing that Prime95 is a torture test and you are unlikely to see loads approaching that ever in real world use. My 2080TI on any modern game will run right up to 85C and then stay from around 80-82C. I think its just set up to not care until it hits that thermal level, then it …

I retested with Max heat and I am getting around 82C as well. I guess I was running on a blended workload before.

How are your 9900K's power usage temps under full load? I think it was maxing out at 72C running Prime @ 5Ghz, If I run 3 Cores at 5.0, 3 @ 4.8, and 2 at 4.7 its stays below 62C. Since all this gear is so new I'm not convinced that I've got all the power requirements dialed in as best as they could …

XT Clone, 4.77Mhz, Hercules Graphics and display, 20MB (Yes MB) Hard Card, Don't remember how much ram. This machine got an upgrade later to EGA and an IBM 5154 Monitor but that was the extent of it.
