brb

#

ok

#

oh tpu just helps with minor OCs and not turbo

#

turbo processing unit aka noob trying to overclocking so they let the software deal with fine tuning helper unit

#

thats actually a good thing

#

this is why I know little about it, because I deal with my stuff in the bios so i can fine tune voltages

#

ah makes sense

#

and yes, I am a noob when it comes to overclocking. xD

#

They let the software deal with it until some egg head decides to try to turn their CPU ratio up to 80 LOL

#

Other than that, I really like the features my board came with

#

It's an ASUS Prime Z370-A

#

btw

#

Also with Turbo don't you have to select applications that need it?

#

thats not a bad board

#

because with the software you need to pick apps for Tubo

#

*Turbo

#

Its actually one of the better low-mid end boards

#

yes, its low-mid

#

wat\

#

See? I know what Turbo does but I didn't know you needed to select programs for it

#

turbo is done in another software also

#

its some intel program

#

ah

#

I thought it'd just do it automatically

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

Oh well I'll just keep my minor overclock of 4.3 GHz. It seems to not mind it hehe.

#

yeah

#

4.3 is good

#

but

#

5.0 is better

#

but also risky

#

naw

#

just get a good cooler

#

I have a good one ;p

#

which one?

#

Corsair H100i V2

#

ehh

#

thats low end

#

high end uses giant tanks of LN2

#

then recaptures most of that and puts it into other tanks to recycle the nitrogen

#

you should get it

#

it only costs $45,000usd

#

Only

#

yes only

#

thats like 1/5th a years wages

#

You do realize where I come from 42 thousand is lots of money

#

How much money do you make what the fuck

Uhhh no?

how do you live off 60k a year?

my car insurance is like $1300 a month

no no, the he1 is 60k

prime jasper Jul 5, 2018, 11:24 AM

oh

#

I should buy that

#

sounds fancy

#

I bought 3

#

just incase 2 break

#

@prime jasper what kind of car do your drive a freaking bugatti ?

#

No a 93 lebaron thats missing a door and a hood

#

also a windshield

#

lol thats 1 hell of insurance 75 euros month Seat Ibiza from 2017 lol

#

unexperienced male driver

#

in the US

#

dam that is expensive dam

#

for liability alone it was $375 at the cheapest

#

but drivers ed here said that they wouldnt accept the insurance

#

i stopped paying those bills, I figured its cheaper to work from home

#

then it was to have a car

#

yea I can Imagen quick calculation 1300x12 = 15,600 dollars a year

#

you can buy a Fine ass PC from that 😛

its close enough to modern

fiery aspen Jul 5, 2018, 4:51 PM

#

are there still issues with the titan v?

#

cause i remember there was a linus tech tips video and they tried out blender and a bunch of other applications and blender crashed

#

but then again thats different from gaming

prime jasper Jul 5, 2018, 4:55 PM

#

Well considering they arent for gaming or rendering, yes. But they are slightly better now since nvidia didnt think anyone was stupid enough to buy a $3000 card for gaming.

fiery aspen Jul 5, 2018, 6:43 PM

Lul

#

I wish I could use the ai compute performance to ~~compute my renders in blender~~

#

I wonder how gpu based lightmappibg in unity would be with a titan v

#

Compared to top end amd stuff

#

Considering it uses Radeon rays

prime jasper Jul 5, 2018, 11:33 PM

I dont use titan vs for that, i use them for bot creation

ahh

#

so you do have a titan

#

I always have to assume that they don't since thats a super high end part

#

yeah it doesnt matter if its on or off, I just leave it on because it's not like it'll use the entire thing and I'm at 11gb vram

latent sentinel Jul 8, 2018, 9:27 PM

#

ah kk

#

i was hoping it would help with the cutscene jittering

north crow Jul 8, 2018, 9:27 PM

#

the only thing that helps with cutscene jittering for me is to switch to dx12

#

which causes other stuttering, but at least I can watch the cutscenes

prime jasper Jul 8, 2018, 9:28 PM

#

That might not work on a titan

north crow Jul 8, 2018, 9:28 PM

#

no idea, but I'd give it a try, helped on my 1080 ti

prime jasper Jul 8, 2018, 9:28 PM

#

dx12 requires the game dev(dice in this case) to code in the card manually

#

so something like a titan xp is kind of obscure in the consumer market, xpp not so much

#

my titan v cant do dx12 to save its life

#

then again those I never got for gaming, but for AI learning

Well it isnt my psu i have 750w and both cables separate

fleet gale Jul 9, 2018, 6:28 AM

If you have those components then something is wrong somewhere

#

3.7 ghz ?

prime jasper Jul 9, 2018, 6:29 AM

#

4.7ghz it always shows the normal

fleet gale Jul 9, 2018, 6:29 AM

#

Alright

#

Temps are ok too

#

This is weird

#

Do you have any other game installed ?

#

When I have problems in some games, i fire up Witcher 3 as its the best benchmark imo. If you have 50% gpu usage there as well then its probably a malware that hinders the performance of your gpu. I recommend Malwarebytes and run a full scan

#

@prime jasper I have to get some shut eye. Let me know if you managed to solve your issue. DM me with the problem and the solution, your case is interesting.

Is memtestx86 better than mdsched.exe?

#

@prime jasper

#

My windows installation is randomly freezing

#

Thought it was the motherboard, just replaced it

#

still freezing

#

I have brand new RAM, CPU, and a Cooler

#

no mdsched.exe is basic, memtest86 is indepth

#

Okay

#

I need to rule out RAM

#

is the ram fully plugged in?

#

yeah

#

power cabled?

#

wtf

#

RAM doesn't need a power cable?

#

What kind of RAM are you using 0.o

#

no im talking about all the issues that can be happening

#

Oh

#

yeah

#

Everything is plugged in tight

#

I had a similar issue happen to me a few days ago, the solution that fixed it was remove the processor, plug it back in, but thermal paste on it then install the cooler

#

I did that lol

#

When I got my new mobo

#

or well, returned it

#

do it again

#

then a third time

#

and a fourth

#

then use a hammer

#

...

#

no but seriously just keep it in mind

#

Ok. Any other suggestions? Other than the RAM diagnostic

#

Someone said my GPU could be starting to die

#

I fucking hope not lol

#

what card?

#

EVGA 1060 6GB

#

i doubt it

#

remove all overclocks

#

memtest disk check

#

just do all the basic stuff

#

I already did a disk check

#

The SFC /scannow right?

#

clean install of windows?

#

Yeah it's a clean install

#

windows repair?

#

Repair doesn't do anything. "There is nothing to repair"

#

switch the ram chips around?

#

Yup

#

Well if there is any RAM issues I'll probably see it on memtest

#

Also the CPU is brand new. It's an 8700K. So I doubt it's that.

#

to an extent but yes

#

is the cpu in the correct direction?

#

Yeah xD

#

The freezing is COMPLETELY random mind you

#

I could be playing Garry's Mod and it'll freeze, or I could simply just be typing something on Discord

#

I can't reproduce it

#

otherwise I'd figure out what the issue is pretty fast lol

#

there is a lot of things can that cause it

#

Yeah :/

#

have you tried hitting the pc to replicate it?

#

yes

#

serious question

#

I shook it just now

#

nothin

#

Like I said, completely random

#

then its software

#

That's what I figured lol

#

but what software think_spin

#

My event logs are nearly clean

#

Well, correction

#

psu might be going bad

#

It's a brand new PSU

#

what mobo?

#

forgot to mention that

#

what brand of psu?

#

ASUS Prime Z370-A, and the PSU is an EVGA Supernova 750 G2

#

The only issue I have is finding the software that's doin dis

#

the compatibility doesnt mean it wont work

it just means its unstable

prime jasper Jul 11, 2018, 1:14 AM

#

I made a bungee which helped a fairly small amount

rich ivy Jul 11, 2018, 1:14 AM

#

do you use them with a bungee?

#

kk

prime jasper Jul 11, 2018, 1:14 AM

#

with and without

#

do the drag issues are like bad bad

#

but because I am super sensitive to that stuff, it bugged me

rich ivy Jul 11, 2018, 1:16 AM

#

I see

prime jasper Jul 11, 2018, 1:16 AM

#

I get off work after 20 hours of tech support

rich ivy Jul 11, 2018, 1:16 AM

#

well that's what they have in stock in my shops, the g403 wired

prime jasper Jul 11, 2018, 1:16 AM

#

everything pisses me off

rich ivy Jul 11, 2018, 1:16 AM

#

they stopped stocking on g403 wireless for some reason

#

and act like g603 is its successor

prime jasper Jul 11, 2018, 1:17 AM

#

g603 is good

rich ivy Jul 11, 2018, 1:17 AM

#

isn't it AA batteries only and doesn't have the cable recharge mechanic?

prime jasper Jul 11, 2018, 1:18 AM

actually I might be thinking of the g703

rich ivy Jul 11, 2018, 1:18 AM

#

yeah

prime jasper Jul 11, 2018, 1:18 AM

#

right after I said it I remembered the g703

rich ivy Jul 11, 2018, 1:19 AM

#

anyways its a downgrade from g403 so they just sell that and act like its an upgrade because the number is bigger and stopped supplying g403 wireless T_T

#

and of course they also sell the g703 for $100

#

with that lightspeed mechanic which I wont use since i don't have that $100 mouse pad

prime jasper Jul 11, 2018, 1:19 AM

#

g903 you can get for $100 on newegg anbd amazon a lot

#

I have that mousepad

rich ivy Jul 11, 2018, 1:20 AM

#

the g903 shape isn't for my hands

prime jasper Jul 11, 2018, 1:20 AM

#

its fucking amazing

#

how so?

#

its a pretty standard shape

rich ivy Jul 11, 2018, 1:20 AM

#

i bet it is, but dropping $200 on a mouse hurts the wallet heh

prime jasper Jul 11, 2018, 1:21 AM

#

$115 but will drop

📎 Screenshot_22.png

rich ivy Jul 11, 2018, 1:21 AM

it doesn't look like a shape I'd like? not sure how to explain it

#

buttons on both sides right?

#

i rest my hand on the right side of the mouse all the time and it would bother me

prime jasper Jul 11, 2018, 1:22 AM

no its ambidextrious

rich ivy Jul 11, 2018, 1:22 AM

my grip is claw mixed with palm too

prime jasper Jul 11, 2018, 1:22 AM

the buttons can be put on there if you want

if it came bundled with a recharging pad for $150 deal i'd get it but it's a bit pricy atm for the budget lol

looks nice

prime jasper Jul 11, 2018, 1:25 AM

I got the bundle for $180

g503 is a great mouse

also

rich ivy Jul 11, 2018, 1:26 AM

which one do you use as your main?

prime jasper Jul 11, 2018, 1:26 AM

#

g903

#

I work long shifts and come home to game

#

than get pissy at the cable

saves me money to just buy this and never care

rich ivy Jul 11, 2018, 1:26 AM

#

yeah lots of praise for logitech's wireless tech

prime jasper Jul 11, 2018, 1:27 AM

#

honestly Idont notice much of a difference in latency

#

and I notice the difference between 144 and 240 fps

#

which most wont notice

prime jasper Jul 11, 2018, 3:45 AM

#

So I've been running memtest86

#

And its about to pass its 3rd time

#

And the CPU passed diagnostics

#

So its software related but which freaking software

prime jasper Jul 11, 2018, 5:05 AM

#

iCUE is the software.

olive hazel Jul 11, 2018, 5:35 AM

Anyone ever have their USB 3.0 slot stop working? Mine just died and idk what the problem is. My rear 3.0 slots work but not the front.

Check your case connector cable. Mine is a fat blue one that plugs into the movo

#

Mobo

It might've unplugged itself

prime jasper Jul 11, 2018, 10:43 AM

#

Does double NAT make the game more laggy?

#

I have to use the ISP Modem + router combo to access the internet and I can't enable bridge mode

lofty light Jul 11, 2018, 6:05 PM

#

I've got that combo too @prime jasper, I came from the G402 which had multiple months of battery life so I don't feel I'm missing much other than the extra thumb buttons

prime jasper Jul 11, 2018, 6:12 PM

#

@prime jasper Submit a bug report to corsair.

#

@prime jasper Technically no, you lose out on buffer device which does though. A lot of thing can cause a laggy network.

#

@lofty light its amazing isnt it?

lofty light Jul 11, 2018, 6:19 PM

#

It's real nice, had some troubles with the fabric mouse mat however...

prime jasper Jul 11, 2018, 6:19 PM

#

I use the hard one that it comes with

lofty light Jul 11, 2018, 6:19 PM

#

Yeah same now

#

Took some time to swap over, but it seems alright now

prime jasper Jul 11, 2018, 6:20 PM

#

I dont like cloth pads at all

#

mostly because of how dirty they get

lofty light Jul 11, 2018, 6:21 PM

#

Yeah, that's why mine stopped working I think 😛

prime jasper Jul 11, 2018, 6:22 PM

#

Looks like I'm going to have to ask the ISP to send a modem so I could fix double Nat

#

I think youre using double nat wrong

#

double nat is when you hide a modem behind another modem on your network

#

to create a second network

#

a router+modem wont create a double nat

#

I'm using Google WiFi to connect my laptop to the internet because it's too far away from the router

#

why not get an extender?

#

they arent that expensive

#

lol I should have went with that

#

I think I have an old one somewhere in the garage

#

go with a mesh web

#

The Google WiFi devices are in mesh mode

#

I know, but you dont have a router that supports it

#

google fiber doesnt even give you one that supports it

#

Ah I see

#

I think I will just buy a long ass ethernet cable to play games lol

#

that wont help

#

Even if it's directly from the router to the laptop?

#

signal degradation

#

happens with long ethernet cables

#

if its far enough that youre having signal problems. the ethernet cable will probably be too long

#

Your most optimal is to make an AI mesh network

#

or

#

do what I did

#

if you have a coax cable connecting to it, use an m2m adapter and extend it that way

silk echo Jul 11, 2018, 6:42 PM

any thoughts on the 29UM69G-B?

prime jasper Jul 11, 2018, 7:12 PM

#

let me check my database

#

I dont deal with ultrawides personally because I hate them

#

so

#

bunch of issues

#

it says 75hz but you most likely wont get that

#

panel has a "high failure" rate

#

aka normal bs for IPS panels

#

I wont put my opinion in there because as I said, its bias

#

I can just give the data I have

silk echo Jul 11, 2018, 7:32 PM

#

Wait, High failure rate?

#

What do you mean

prime jasper Jul 11, 2018, 7:44 PM

#

ips panels have weird issues with backlight bleed, dead pixels

#

etc

#

The panel is not good for FPS games like BF, because its response times are shite

silk echo Jul 11, 2018, 9:09 PM

#

Yeah but how bad is the "High failure rate" thingy?

#

two hours later

prime jasper Jul 11, 2018, 9:28 PM

#

its more about lg panels having just bad lottery issues

silk echo Jul 11, 2018, 9:32 PM

#

But does it like mean Dead pixels n stuff like that?

prime jasper Jul 11, 2018, 11:40 PM

#

well thats just an issue with IPS panels

#

they have high rates of dead pixels

agile rain Jul 12, 2018, 2:11 AM

#

I might get this soon. I think I have someone lined up who will pay 130 for my 960

📎 chrome_2018-07-10_21-19-24.png

#

Think of all the frames in BFV ❤

prime jasper Jul 12, 2018, 10:37 AM

#

@agile rain I'd recommend you hold out for a 1070 or 1070ti if you can, because they would smash BFV even at 1440p, and 1440p is really nice.

#

I have a 1080 and play everything at 1440p and it's the best. 4k's nice too, but not practical in terms of framerate with current hardware.

wet wharf Jul 12, 2018, 1:17 PM

#

guys and grils

#

should I wait 1 more month for grafics cards drop?

#

or there is no use

#

what do you think?

#

I was trying to wait for 11 séries (to get a 10 xD)

prime jasper Jul 12, 2018, 1:31 PM

#

@wet wharf Everything I've seen recently would lead me to believe that the 11 series chips are still a while away. 10 series cards have been going for decent prices more often recently so just jump on a good deal if you find one.

wet wharf Jul 12, 2018, 1:32 PM

#

yeah, I have been checking the prices for the last 2/3 months.. and it got down more than 50€

#

also RAM got cheaper

#

xD

#

I will probably buy the game

#

** PC

prime jasper Jul 12, 2018, 1:34 PM

#

Yeah just go for it. I upgraded my 1060 to a 1080 a couple months ago and I'm extremely happy with it.

wet wharf Jul 12, 2018, 1:34 PM

#

I will go from a 960 tp 1080 xD

#

960 isnt bad... but is starting not to handle very well the recent games

#

also my processor is "old" i5 4500

lofty light Jul 12, 2018, 2:02 PM

#

@silk echo I had an LG Ultrawide IPS monitor and it was alright for BF, not the best obviously and you've got to luck out with the panel as phthinein said, but I loved it

#

Went to the Acer Predator X34P now to replace it so I'm in for a pound now

silk echo Jul 12, 2018, 2:02 PM

#

But if i have warrenty, it should cover it, shoudnt it?

#

I want an ultrawidescreen tho

lofty light Jul 12, 2018, 2:04 PM

#

Depends, mainly on how whiny you want to be 😛 I've had plenty of stories of people complaining and getting a replacement monitors multiple times over from Amazon, but it depends on the retailer

silk echo Jul 12, 2018, 2:06 PM

#

So i shouldnt go for it?

lofty light Jul 12, 2018, 2:06 PM

#

I really like ultrawide, I can't go back now

silk echo Jul 12, 2018, 2:06 PM

#

I shouldnt go for the IPS monitor then?

lofty light Jul 12, 2018, 2:07 PM

#

If it's cheap, I'd go for it as I love the colours

silk echo Jul 12, 2018, 2:07 PM

#

Yeah but if it will fail 24/7 then whats the point

lofty light Jul 12, 2018, 2:09 PM

#

It won't?

silk echo Jul 12, 2018, 2:09 PM

#

You and phthinein suggest that it does

#

so you got me worried now

lofty light Jul 12, 2018, 2:11 PM

#

The fact of the matter it, it'll work but there's a reasonable chance there will be a fair amount of blacklight bleed in the corners. Funnily enough my LG panel was the best one I've ever seen, let alone had for bleed, but as long as you're not viewing a lot of dark scenes it won't be a big issue at all.

silk echo Jul 12, 2018, 2:13 PM

#

I dont mind backlight bleeding at all

#

I have a 10 year old monitor so im hella used to it

lofty light Jul 12, 2018, 2:13 PM

#

Fair enough 😛

silk echo Jul 12, 2018, 2:14 PM

#

So i guess ill go for it

lofty light Jul 12, 2018, 2:15 PM

#

Give it a try, I definitely enjoyed mine

silk echo Jul 12, 2018, 2:18 PM

#

Im not going to "give it a try" i dont have the money to buy a new monitor if this one fails

#

if im buying it its going to stay here for min 5 years

lofty light Jul 12, 2018, 2:19 PM

#

So long as you have a warranty and you don't care overly about the reaction time difference between it and TN then it'll do you well

prime jasper Jul 12, 2018, 3:30 PM

#

Warrenty doesn't cover dead pixels

#

Just keep that in mind

#

Or we'll when it's only a few

sour ivy Jul 12, 2018, 3:33 PM

@agile rain dont get a single fan card

silk echo Jul 12, 2018, 6:14 PM

#

So that monitor is a no go by your books? @prime jasper @lofty light

prime jasper Jul 12, 2018, 6:18 PM

#

Its honestly up to you

#

Monitors are major risks when you buy them without trying them, much line chairs

#

I'd suggest seeing if any local stores have them

#

toy around with them

#

I dont like ultrawides because I find it hard to see everything on the screen, plus most competitive games don't actually give you that extra fov, it just stretches. CSGO how ever just puts ugly black bars to block off the rest of the screen

tardy basin Jul 12, 2018, 6:31 PM

#

I use a pg348q

#

and only game I play that stretches is Overwatch

#

you'll probably see that with most FPS games

#

but most games these days other than FPS games support 21:9 / higher res

#

have very minimal bleed

#

and 80hz, couldnt get mine to 100

prime jasper Jul 12, 2018, 6:33 PM

#

I use a 21:9 and its fine in comps, it's when you get past 2560x1440p

tardy basin Jul 12, 2018, 6:33 PM

#

pg348q is 3440x1440

prime jasper Jul 12, 2018, 6:33 PM

#

like 2560x1080 you'll see issues and stretching

tardy basin Jul 12, 2018, 6:33 PM

#

again, only seen the stretching with fps

#

and youd notice right away if its stretching

prime jasper Jul 12, 2018, 6:34 PM

#

thats what I was talking about

#

competitive games

#

like FPS games

tardy basin Jul 12, 2018, 6:34 PM

#

just google for the games you play if they support 3440x1440 native

#

but @silk echo id wait til sept/nov if youre planning on getting an ultrawide now

#

they are starting to pus hfor the next update to these things i.e. higher refresh rates and resolutions

#

most of these 34-35 inch ultrawides have already dropped 100-200 bucks in price in the past 2-3 months

#

theyll drop a bit more by then as well making way for the new ones

prime jasper Jul 12, 2018, 6:35 PM

#

@tardy basin http://www.wsgf.org/mgl/uws this list

#

battlefield supports it because it's not a competitive game

#

hence forth

im surprised you guys aren't aware of this in regards to TVs on black friday

#

from an nbc article, one of many examples you can find on tons of reports about blac kfriday deals

silk echo Jul 12, 2018, 6:42 PM

#

Never knew that

tardy basin Jul 12, 2018, 6:42 PM

#

These limited edition models are called “derivative” products. Sometimes the manufacturer simply gives an existing product a new model number. In other cases, they make changes to the current model in order to hit a lower price point. For example, a TV could have one less HDMI input or use lower quality parts.

And if I want to get my 16 core to 5.0 I need LN2, I have it at 3.8 on custom loop

the kaby lake-x had no reason to exist

skylake does

tardy basin Jul 12, 2018, 7:00 PM

high speed high core count cpus are needed in certain markets

and 16core to 5.0 yeah you need ln2

youre being nonsensical

its a bad overclocker because you cant hit 5.0

the 34UM69G-B , it doesnt have any dead pixels problems?

prime jasper Jul 12, 2018, 7:02 PM

#

the ones on x99 and x299 marketed towards gamers are either A) Worse 8700ks B)A more expensive 7700k or C)minor improvment that doesn't justify the massive price increase

silk echo Jul 12, 2018, 7:02 PM

#

well every monitor has that, but you get me

prime jasper Jul 12, 2018, 7:04 PM

#

One example is the 7800x which is just a more expensive and inferior 8700k for gaming

#

with which processor?

#

I was saying before LG panels had a high rate of dead pixel issues

#

just in general

#

not that monitor specifically

#

As I was saying, it's entirely up to you, on if it fits your needs. there are better ones that I would say go for, but they are also substantially more expensive.

tardy basin Jul 12, 2018, 7:10 PM

#

Kartov,

#

looking at LG dead pixel policy

#

their max # dead pixel allowed b4 warranty is double that of ASUS

#

so you would likely see more complaints about dead pixels on LGs and I would also guess LG expecting higher amounts of dead pixels with their panels

#

unless they are just too lazy to deal with unhappy customers / warranties

#

but its probably because their panels are actually lower quality

#

but also explains LG's lwoer prices

prime jasper Jul 12, 2018, 7:11 PM

#

Asus uses samsung panels which tend to be higher quality

#

in most cases

tardy basin Jul 12, 2018, 7:11 PM

#

the problem is if you get dead pixels on your LG

#

you're pr much DOA because youd have to be Really unlucky to have 12+ dead pixels

#

but ASUS / Acer / whoever else its like 4-5 pixels for their warranties

prime jasper Jul 12, 2018, 7:12 PM

#

@golden raft if you're on PC get an actual pair of headphones, not gamer ones. Open back preferred and a DAC. Its way more expensive but the quality matches the price

prime jasper Jul 14, 2018, 4:55 AM

#

@prime jasper Put starting price of 400$ and the min price i would let it for would be around 300$
the monitor is prolly worth around 10$ or something

#

just my assumption what the price is around

prime jasper Jul 14, 2018, 5:22 AM

#

@prime jasper I actually own a shop. tell me the brands of the ssd, the HDD, the ram(also its speed), and the motherboard. Also the case. The 970 might be better off selling on its own

I'd also need to know the brand of the 970 and the model

#

#

turbid verge Jul 17, 2018, 4:17 AM

#

Doesnt mean the fact in the future I wont buy a higher inch version

#

Yeh

prime jasper Jul 17, 2018, 4:18 AM

#

its the only gsync 1440p monitor I know that goes that cheap

turbid verge Jul 17, 2018, 4:18 AM

#

Same

prime jasper Jul 17, 2018, 4:19 AM

#

I opted out of gsync if you cant tell

turbid verge Jul 17, 2018, 4:19 AM

#

I can see the difference a bit but sometimes I dont ever notice or most of them

prime jasper Jul 17, 2018, 4:20 AM

#

Well Im also using halo tier gaming stuff

#

so gsync is just kind of a waste

#

when without gsync its cheaper and exactly the same as the gsync version

turbid verge Jul 17, 2018, 4:21 AM

#

Yeh

prime jasper Jul 17, 2018, 4:22 AM

#

that being said I'm waiting for gsync 2 to release before I buy a 4k 144hz panel

#

gsync 2 supports HDR

#

@turbid verge there was a acer predator 1440p 144hz /160hz OC g-sync monitor in the prime deals yesterday for £329

#

Can't remember if it was the 24 or 27 inch version

lofty light Jul 17, 2018, 1:19 PM

#

The Acer Predator X35 is eventually going to be released, and I'll be VERY excited for that day

prime jasper Jul 17, 2018, 2:19 PM

#

So, High refreshrate Low res monitor, Or Low refresh and high res?

#

Or both 144hz and 4k

#

i just need a screen with excellent color accuracy and res

rotund pendant Jul 17, 2018, 3:07 PM

#

1440p 144Hz IPS perfect

prime jasper Jul 17, 2018, 5:22 PM

#

@prime jasper youd want a 1440k 144hz with a ips panel, but after the month long testing I've been doing, competitive fps games don't like ips panels since the blacker blacks and more accurate colors cause enemies to disappear into the map a lot.

#

So the TN panel is still top dog if you're trying to be competitive.https://imgur.com/s2lOIRD TN vs IPS

#

agree completely, an IPS looks better and even though they still have the 1ms response time I would still pick a TN panel for gaming, the greyness/faded colours helps players stand out more. Particularly those in darker areas

prime jasper Jul 17, 2018, 6:56 PM

#

yeah its weird how a better panel is worse for games like bf

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

#

$20 more than last time I checked

agile rain Jul 17, 2018, 11:00 PM

#

This is the better deal though at $300

prime jasper Jul 17, 2018, 11:06 PM

#

there are also 8gb rx580s running around for less than $300

#

I see them pop up for like 220-250

agile rain Jul 17, 2018, 11:11 PM

#

yes but the 1060 is more powerful even with less vRAM

#

Plus I really like Nvidia's fast sync option which throws out any frames that exceed the refresh rate but without input lag from vsync

prime jasper Jul 17, 2018, 11:19 PM

#

not that much more powerful

agile rain Jul 17, 2018, 11:20 PM

#

Unfortunately Nvidia cards come with more features such as gameworks stuff. I dont like Nvidia for their practices but their cards are A1

prime jasper Jul 17, 2018, 11:21 PM

#

true

#

but the goal here is to save money since you need to pay for those meds you need

agile rain Jul 17, 2018, 11:23 PM

#

In the end I still pay $300

#

Most the 8gb versions are still 300

prime jasper Jul 17, 2018, 11:26 PM

#

yeah but they still go on sale a lot

#

plus used cards are a thing

agile rain Jul 17, 2018, 11:36 PM

#

I want new

prime jasper Jul 17, 2018, 11:37 PM

#

picky arent you

agile rain Jul 17, 2018, 11:37 PM

#

Kinda. I mean I got my 960 used but from a irl friend

Guys this might be a nooby question but can I split my USB microphone (just the mic, not a headset) between my PS4 and PC?
