Yo peter
how did you like the oneplus3 ?
i really loved it
i want to get the new oneplus6 T
hushed geyser
ahhhh i just saw the oneplus box and it was looking same like from the +3
nice man. yeah i didnt bought the oneplus 6 because the fingerprint is in the back
i won a s8 duos with a sensor in the back and I HATE it
quaint topaz
The fingerprint sensor on the Samsung S8 is placed awkwardly next to the camera.
took me a few days to get used to the back fingerprint scanner. Used a Galaxy S7 before.
I prefer to have it on the back tbh
short crypt
On the note 9 its pretty good tho
hushed geyser
Since I use it as a company phone and it auto locks itself very often. Imagin e beeing at lunch wanna check phone shortly. i need to grab it up from the table
thats so annoying
My mobile productivity went down about 30% compared to the oneplus
yeah its awkwardly next to the cam + somehow I often fail to unlock on first 2 attempts.... in addition samsung has this awkward "transition animations" so sometimes i try to unlock and the animation is so slow that i already relock it because i thought my phone didnt reacted. i basically shut it off before the unlock succeded
I will never buy a samsung again... (in private im a Sony Fan - but the new models look shit tbh)
short crypt
You can turn off the animations in developer mode tho
I like the note 9 but i cant wait to try the iphone xs max on friday i think
hushed geyser
Ahh sweet tip. Thanks ! Ill try that !
Yeah but overall im very unsatisfied. When there is a update. You can not "shut it off". Sometimes i got 3 permanent push msgs. "wifi calling" "update available" and and "IMSI" message. Okay I'll stop beeing a salty samsung boy now. Haha
short crypt
ahahah
north crow
@quaint topaz that sensor was really awkward without a case
I'm now used to it, even without the case, but I definitely tapped the camera on accident a few times

hi all. does anyone here know, how i could decrease the filesize of a video? but with preserving quality?
like i have one recorded with nvidia experience 720p 30fps and i want the video to become smaller
terse hound
@plain quiver Bitrate, do you use shadowplay?
terse hound
i keep it at 20mbps
terse hound
I rarely record anything over 1 minute
plain quiver
is therer any free alternative to shadowplay?
terse hound
there is OBS but the files are a bit bigger since it has better quality
terse hound
there is also FRAPS
but fraps doesnt compress the file, so the video may be quite a few GB big
i prefer to stick to shadow play instant action
plain quiver
ok thx ;D
i thought there might be some for size optimized thing
but it doenst look like

@plain quiver plays.tv
good alternative and filesize is pretty compressed too.
lower quality than shadowplay but hard to tell a difference if you just use clips for rewatching and not videoediting/fragmovies whatever
steep root
you can record it and throw it at google drive
plain quiver
thanks a lot 😄
i downloaded aand will now install it
how can i with plays, remove some part of a video?
steep gust
Use shadowplay and reduce the bitrate / resolution / framerate
and time
It puts the least stress on your cpu
plain quiver
hmm
yes i noticed i cant do much more with plays, but it was worth trying it thansk ;D
thanks
terse hound
To trim or join your videos you need something like sony vegas
Let me see if i can find something similar for free
Avidemux, i have used it , it can also compress videos

Mainly looking for the 2070 performance vs 1080ti
Looks like we might get to see before V release now

nnot at much overkill but still
rose eagle
I mean I just don't expect to see real performance results before V hits
So gotta use 1 for testing
terse hound
i agree
rose eagle
A game without RTX
Though really... In a perfect world I hope the 1080 non ti is driven down to $350
terse hound
I stick to midrange gpus(150-250$)
terse hound
Understandable
rose eagle
I don't have the wallet lol
Almost wish I had a 1080p gsync but then you have to turn on AA soo...?
steep gust
AA is never required?
terse hound
I have heard many times that if you have a big screen you dont need much AA
prime jasper
i game at 1080p and AA is a must
when i was running my low end 750ti i got away with just FXAA but now msaa and even TAA are much better
steep gust
bigger screen means you'll want AA because the edges are bigger
and I'm so fucking ready for the 9th gen Intel CPUs
If the leaks of a soldered IHS are right, I'll go out and buy a Z390 motherboard and the 9900k and call it good for a few years

@steep gust How many good years are we talking about?

Not running AA on 1080 could even be a tactical disadvantage

Force close it via task manager @tulip bluff

okay
still same thing
i thing its because my internet is slow ?
does it load in offline mode?

Try restarting your pc @tulip bluff

That happens alot, idk about like the store but just go up to the "View" dropdown menu and click game library and you can play your games still
tulip bluff
i did that but nothing happens
and i dont have any games
ive just bought bf1

any other solutions ?

Ima find you the answer give me one minute
When I did it I didnt even need to restart my pc

how about internet via satellite

Close out, and try again in a couple min.
quartz canopy
or, uninstall/reinstall, clear origin cache
real bramble
%appdata% i think
quartz canopy
Does it work now if you re-launch?
No need to uninstall/reinstall if clearing the cache worked
tulip bluff
what happened is when it wasnt launching i tried to uninstall it but for some reason the files stayed in the folder and if clicked uninstall again it load up so i launched the setup and it made select if i want to update or not
and then it got stuck
quartz canopy
So it's still not launching?
tulip bluff
i really dont know if i should run the setup or just launch origin
because i uninstalled it
but the files didnt get deleted
quartz canopy
Then you can try this first, and make sure it's fully uninstalled: https://help.ea.com/en-us/help/origin/origin/manually-uninstalling-origin/

okay
okay so
theres no origin in programs
hold on i will try something

i just deleted everything about origin to start from 0 and ran the setup

Hey guys what settings should I tweak to help my CPU usage in Battlefield 1
sour ivy
What is your CPU
wooden lintel
A Ryzen 3 1200 at 3.8 GHz
wooden lintel
I know its not the best but since a stock Ryzen 3 1200 is only 20% weaker than the minimum recommended CPU I expect my OC'd CPU to be similar, so Im not sure why Im dropping to 30 frames per second even in DX 11
Like I'd understand dropping in the 50s but down to 30-40?? I can run DOOM 2016 fully maxed out at 100 FPS, and it looks way better than this,
And well my GPU's a 970 so that's not the issue
sour ivy
Right, because DOOM is GPU dependant
And battlefield relys on the CPU
Therefore, a budget CPU will struggle in it
sour ivy
You cant @everyone it doesn't work

they upgraded my 60mbit to 200mbit for 1 cent
i was like LMAO u trolling me right?
but its real

the upgrade is valid for the rest of my old contract
so in 6 month im gonna pay like 37 euros for 200mbit
if I add 10 euros i would get 400mbit
but since its unuseable and i dont DL much i stick to 200mbit
excuse moi wtf 350kbs 😄

I have 200/20 for 50 euros per month or so, but that includes TV and a home-phone

@tulip bluff And yeah, there's a difference between MB/s (MegaByte per second) and mb/s (megabit per second). If you want to know how much MB/s let's say 1000 mb/s is: divide it to 8 and you have the amount of MB/s

You end up with other thing to slow you down
So why you might have a 1000MBps line, the server you are connected to might only send you 50MBps

thats why i got 200 instead of 400
because at exactly 0 times a year i use the 200mbit at once
no one provides me that download speed

rose eagle
If I can pull an entire battlefield beta in an hour I don't need faster internet
I think it came down at like 20mB/s
Think I've got 150mbps
I'd gladly pay less for a 50mbps but they tier stupid as hell here.. Like you want 15mbps for $65 or 150 for $90?
15 is useless except a single old person not needing 4k content even to 1 TV
sour ivy
😱
terse hound
i mean i didnt took me 48 hours, more like 12-16
mostly because i share my internet and i dont want to clog it
Mbps you mean, 3Mbps
and upload speed is like a quarter Mbps
Infrastructure maybe, my tel company has fiber in other places but they are playing dumb in my region, ive been thinking about changing company soon
i could get TV landline and internet for the same price for 50mbps
i pay 30 dollars currently but he other company gives me the all for about 35 dollars
the thing is that i have heard that it has data limit and thats no bueno
the max i could get is 100mbps for 70 dollars
but thats really too much in my opinion
well im ok with a basic 20mbps speed
its better than what i have now
so 30 dollars for 50mbps seems nice
rose eagle
I'm getting old, I got a kid I just want something that is good enough to steam 2x and not affect my gaming and 50mbps would be sufficient
The only plans around here are $90 or $110/mo

fuuuuudge, 9 am edt

prime jasper
I've decided I'm going for a 1080 ti instead of a regular ol' 2080
The RTX 2080 is only around 4% faster than the 1080 and around $100-$200 more.
So I'm gonna be getting a Gigabyte Aorus GTX 1080ti.
Aorus Xtreme to be exact
forest token
2080 about 40-45% faster than 1080 according to videocardz
prime jasper
That's a complete lie 😂
forest token
and their source is a leak of the reviewers guide
prime jasper
The benchmarks have already been released. It's only 4-5% faster
It's not at all that faster
The 2080 ti would be that much faster
OH the regular 1080
I can't read ;-;
forest token
forest token
that is the numbers from the videocardz supposed leak of the reviewers guide
at 4k
north crow
Note that the "reviewers guide" is curated by nvidia, so obviously it'll show the new cards in the best possible light
prime jasper
Two things to point out. I will not be using 4K anytime soon. I plan on getting a 2K monitor around Cyber Monday, and I will also not being using VR anytime soon
So those specs are irrelevant to me
:3
north crow
By 2K do you mean 1440p?
forest token
prices probably go higher after the trump tax kicks in 😦
prime jasper
yeah
north crow
60hz or 144hz?
prime jasper
Really? 0.o
north crow
well, it's not that straightforward
but it's more pixels per second anyway
530841600 vs. 497664000
prime jasper
According to some people you need two 1080's to run 1440p in 144hz... but if I am getting a 1080 ti that should not be a problem lol
I also know a friend who has the EVGA GTX 1080 ti FTW3 Hybrid and I believe he's ran 1440p in 144hz
but
north crow
(in real life stuff doesn't scale that linearly, but 1440p 144hz is very demanding)
it all depends on the game and your settings
I have a 1080 Ti but I don't consistently reach 144fps in most AAA titles
unless I lower my settings, and sometimes not even then (cpu bottlenecks and whatnot)
prime jasper
Well I shouldn't have a problem with the CPU bottlenecking, I have an 8700K
Idk. I think if anything I can just manually reduce the hertz via the nvidia control panel
;p
north crow
what would be the point of that
prime jasper
Ah
north crow
though I usually hover around 90-110
prime jasper
Well I mainly buying the 1080ti for Arma 3 and some other new games I'm gonna be getting tbh
north crow
it's a great card, but you might have to lower some settings to reach that 1440p 144fps consistently
prime jasper
Arma 3, Farming Simulator 19 (Don't laugh at me), Wolfenstein: The New Collossus
and yeah
forest token
the last two card I had were msi and the fans both eventually died on them, so I figured I would try another brand and I chose evga. every month or so I have to move a wire on my evga gpu so the fan doesn't go to max speed at random times when idle. such as when I am sleeping (happened again a couple days ago)
prime jasper
Really? 0.o
hushed geyser
Im also faced with the question if i should go RTX 2080 or GTX1080ti
north crow
I've had good luck with ASUS
but my old MSI GTX 770 is also going strong (it's in my work pc atm), so 
prime jasper
I am gonna be getting the Gigabyte Aorus. I've had brand loyalty to EVGA but they stopped selling most of their good cards >:O
forest token
but asus was involved in price fixing 😦
north crow
noice
prime jasper
Tom's Hardware also recommended this one out of all the other high-end models
prime jasper
Yeah. They stopped making them and selling them that's why it's so expensive 😦

xD
I was gonna go for the FTW3
but it's way too expensive
for what I want anyways
I am just trying to future-proof my setup
Not trying to get the highest tiered stuff
otherwise I would be going with a 2080 ti right now 😂
prime jasper
I don't like AMD anymore
I had a CPU from them once
and it was horrible
I couldn't even run 720p on some games
hushed geyser
i7-7820x Intel
hushed geyser
duuude 😄 no AMD in my household
prime jasper
Haha xD
There is someone in my community who compares Intel to the Threadrippers
I'm just like...
first off, who the hell needs a processor with 56 threads on it
NASA?
xD
hushed geyser
im gonna wait 2 more month till the bf5 release and then ill buy what ever is left on the market. since all directions tell me rather to buy 1080ti then 2080 yeah i should listen....
hahahah NASA xD
prime jasper
Yeah... like unless you plan on constantly running 4K or doing heavy VR stuff... get the 1080ti. I don't plan on getting 4K because I don't feel like dropping $600-$800 on a computer monitor
Spending $300-$400 on one for 1440p makes me cringe alone lmao
but that's just me
I don't have a great job right now so...
I'm getting what I can afford lmao
hushed geyser
i still got my 4 yrs old BENQ XL2430T
its 144Hz but only HD
next one will be a Predator I think
I'll wait for this BENQ to die... tbh. The backlight is broken since a looooong time (this type had a manufracturing error/problems with backlight not shutting off when monitor is off)
which i noticed exactly 5 days after warranty period ended
and BENQ refused to do their job on a obviously production error device
first and LAST benq in my life
lol
hushed geyser
i even told them the backlight problems was there weeks before the period ended. my room was never dark enough too notice that its actually broken.
but they were like : Ooops were sorry your out of warranty. we can fix it for 180 or smth

I honestly hate looking at the negative reviews for graphics cards and stuff
because people are like "Reeee this piece of assembly is flimsy". Like you're sticking it in your damn computer case and running it as a graphics card are you using it as silly putty or somethin?
It's also funny when you see professional reviews that are like "This has really good assembly" and some amazon reviews are complaining about the quality of metal they used -.-
hushed geyser
xD
sounds like I would do a review lol
Im very haptical and I love engineering and good quality materials well brought together
but yeah at the end of the day you only stick it in your case and thats it. it doesnt need to be sturdy
prime jasper
True true
but I mean like
I'm talking about people complaining about the smallest things. Even if the metal quality is good they'd write a bad review because the metal isn't titanium colored - instead they colored it black so it's bad
hushed geyser
yeah thats a senseless bad rating. true

picking the cheapest shipping method. Top 10 anime regrets.

I am extremely impatient
if Expedited Shipping is only $10 then I'm going with that
prime jasper
oof
so replacement monitor still flickering on dark colours
guess its a connection or gpu issue then
prime jasper
its fine at 120hz wtf

i dont understand this at all

it happens when you switch to 144?

RTX seems decent for gaming
2080 is slightly better or onpar with the 1080ti depending on the game / benchmark
but the 2080ti is fucking strong
short crypt
And really expensive lmao
prime jasper
@wet notch yeah when im on 144

Should not a GTX 2080 be more than enough for gaming?
strong forum
Depends on the type of gaming you do and what is "good enough" for you
terse hound
wet notch
@prime jasper what's your gfx card?
prime jasper
@wet notch r9 390x
steep gust
@terse hound Buy a 1080ti
RTX isn't worth it
Its about on par with a 1080ti, cost more, and has shitter cooling
Maybe with overclocking it'll pull ahead due to GDDR6
But as of right now, RTX is a no buy
lofty light
Only the 2080ti is even arguable as its the only one better than the previous gen
And even then it's a LOT of money
terse hound
I dont want a new gpu, i already have a gtx 1060
lofty light
Then don't get one, easy
forest token
I want a new gpu because my 1060 isn't enough to do 100 fps without lowering resolution scaling to about 75% 😦
not sure if it is the gpu though
could just be windows 7 being less stable
plus my 1060 has a problem where if a fan cable is bent certain ways it will put the fan at full speed
needs to be rebent every few weeks or so
it can go full speed at random times, like when I am sleeping
evga made it btw
lofty light
I've got an EVGA 1080 and 1060
terse hound
Evga is a good company
lofty light
Good warranty coverage
hushed geyser
yeah i bought me EVGA mainboarg. a friend told me to get EVGA
its pretty solid
not much bling bling but powerfull
@lofty light are you happy with evga gpu?
lofty light
I am yeah
hushed geyser
any con's?
lofty light
I mean, I'm going to be selling off the 1080 soon but it's good
Well mine was the one that supposedly had exploding components, but it wasn't that much of an issue in the first place and the safety stuff they've chucked on the new cards is WAY over the top

I have the most budget build ever. 1050ti and pentium g4560
sour ivy
That's not the worst
thorny halo
for the price not at all. Plays bf4 at 60fps on the settings i like so im happy
Just playing bfv is gonna be a struggle
sour ivy
Well because bf4 is gpu dependant and bf1 and v are CPU dependant

@thorny halo same cpu but i got a 1060 just because it was like 20 dollars more than the 1050ti in may last year
thorny halo
ah fairs. How much ram u got and what fps did u get in the beta
terse hound
im thinking about moving to a i5 7600 later
thorny halo
Ive got 8gb single channel and i was getting like 30fps max 40 and dipping to 25
yeah im gonna upgrade to that around christmas when i get cash
terse hound
i got 8gb of ram, i dont really use a frame counter but it was decent
better than 30fps
thorny halo
mine was so hard to play but i saw someone with 16 gb dual channel with a 1050ti get 50fps
and my ram was always maxed out usage wise
but the memory optimisation should be good by release
terse hound
yes, i could benefit from another 8gb of ram
sour ivy
That CPU is a yikes for modern games
prime jasper
@half maple But the question is.... can it run Minecraft?
half maple
nah
prime jasper

thorny halo
the cpu does decently on witcher on medium
that and bf4 are the best games i play graphically tbh
only ever played bf1 on console but didnt buy it on pc because i thought it wasnt very good so i dont know how my pc would run it
sour ivy
your pc wouldn't run it well at ALL
thorny halo
thats why im upgrading it this xmas

i finally get a job and will FINALLY be able to afford a new gfx card
good replacement for gf970 these days?
preferrably an nvidia one

Never seem a tuf x99 before

It's notice, actually a main reason I don't want to upgrade yet as it's so good
It's the Sabertooth board

Getting a better water cooler and a 2080ti soon for it and should be able to clock it higher

RTX is a meme

Does anyone think nvidia will continue the GTX series with 1180 have it a lot cheaper than RTX. I think the price increase is ridiculous for the rtx cards

@short crypt which one is that?

the xs max in gold 😄
calling it trash is stupid as its better than oneplus in everyway

That’s a bold statement lmao
short crypt
in what situation isnt it better than the oneplus tho lol
i have both the note 9 and xs max and both is great phones
and probably the best
imo
rustic hinge
I’m sure there’s reasons
short crypt
feel free to lemme know the reasons then 😄
sour ivy
the iPhone is superior to the oneplus if we aren't including price
short crypt
yeah price is the only minus
rustic hinge
Price is ridiculous
rustic hinge
I know
But it’s to the point where it isn’t worth it
Over 1k for just a phone is ridiculous
short crypt
depends
if you can afford it
then it might be worth it for you :p
I mean I did not regret spending money on it
ocean valve
Doubt its worth the 1200$ if you already have a iphone X
rustic hinge
Idk I just guess I’d rather spend that money on a PC upgrade or something else lol
short crypt
prolly not for most
but its still a good upgrade
well i already have a good pc and all
rustic hinge
Well you have to buy the iPhone X first
