a super deep dark grey almost black or lighter?

#

i assume taking a screenshot will look nothing on someone elses screen as it wont capture the color settings

storm osprey
#

lol right, and im not at home right now either

rose eagle
#

splitting the disco window across 2 screens is damn near impossible to get them to match haha

storm osprey
#

yea i used to have 2 monitors, and hated that they both werent the same

rose eagle
#

well i probably need a non gaming subjective view at content for game creation

#

hard to know what your settings should be for the most realistic view everyone else sees.. prob a standard of sorts

#

ill let the artists deal with that πŸ˜„

ocean valve
#

Because people spam memes otherwise

prime jasper
#

Oh okay

rose eagle
#

tech channel might be ok to open up to embed

#

we like postin pics of benchmarks and stuffs πŸ˜„

storm osprey
#

or at least have a screen shot channel imo

prime jasper
#

Ye, wanted to post a screenshot here earlier.. of a benchmark

rose eagle
#

ooh i was waiting but forgot new intel benchmarks are out today

#

with cpus

#

looks like 9700K hangs in on 95% percentile FPS πŸ˜‰

#

fkin anandtech didnt bench BF1

#

most cpu intensive engine

rose eagle
#

well they got bfront 2.. 9700k seems 100% on par if not better in some games

rose eagle
#

the 2700x to me falls apart on the 99% percentile benchmarks

CYBERPOWERPC Gamer Xtreme GXIVR8020A5 Desktop Gaming PC (Intel i5-8400 6 Core Processor, AMD RX 580 4GB, 8GB DDR4 RAM, 1TB 7200RPM HDD, WiFi, Win 10 Home 64-bit), Black - VR Ready Hey hows this pc? Im not planning of play bf on it cus i have bf of the ps4. I wanna use it for games like rainbow 6, the forest, mc (lol yea i still play Minecraft i know), etc. Oh it doesnt day but its a 500w power supply

rose eagle
#

May as well look into ryzen for mid level

#

Pre built runs an unnecessary premium doesn't it?

unkempt mirage
#

Im gonna go with intel because i know whats good for intel, i dont know, i dont know much about ryzen even tho i read alot of articles and stuff about ryzen, im not biased towards anything im willing to try anything out rly

rose eagle
#

8400 is $200?

unkempt mirage
#

I believe so yea

#

I wouldve gone for the i7 but noXD

#

Wayy to expensive

rose eagle
#

8600K is solid too

unkempt mirage
#

How much is it?

rose eagle
#

260 I think

unkempt mirage
#

So for my plan for my pc, is im gonna upgrade everything except the case cus the case is dopeXD

rose eagle
#

You checked pcpartpicker?

#

Really makes picking the best parts for price simple

unkempt mirage
#

The pc all together is 700 and i dont rly feel like paying anymore than that cus the monitor im also getting is 200

rose eagle
#

With video? Yea that's cheap haha

unkempt mirage
#

Wym by with video?

rose eagle
#

1080p?

#

$700 including video card

unkempt mirage
#

Oh ye its a 24 inch 144hz monitor 1080p

rose eagle
#

Freesync?

unkempt mirage
#

Wut that?

rose eagle
#

AMD supported tech to reduce tearing etc

unkempt mirage
#

Oh

rose eagle
#

Nvidia has one also in some monitors

unkempt mirage
#

Oh cool

#

Idk actually if the monitor has freesync

#

Lemme check

#

No it doesn’t have freesync

rose eagle
#

Poop I'd maybe research a bit more on monitor, what size?

unkempt mirage
#

Ots a 24 inch, its an acer monitor

#

For gaming

#

What monitor u got?

rose eagle
#

27" 144hz gsync

#

1440p wouldn't work ;p

#

Feel like you could get a much better one black Friday but it seems to get decent reviews

unkempt mirage
#

Ye

rose eagle
#

Freesync and gsync are great

unkempt mirage
#

I bet

#

Lemme see if it has gsync actually

#

Oki it has gsync

rose eagle
#

Gsync only works on Nvidia cards

unkempt mirage
#

Oh

#

Im gonna get a 1050 or 60 sooner or later

rose eagle
#

Youd need to consider a 1060

unkempt mirage
#

Alrighty

rose eagle
#

But ya monitor decisions are very important

unkempt mirage
#

Yea

#

Ill get a link so you can see it

storm osprey
#

thats the 1080p monitor i recommend

unkempt mirage
#

Ye

unborn epoch
#

Nice man

unkempt mirage
#

1920x1080

rose eagle
#

It has gsync?

#

Don't see it

unkempt mirage
#

Ye but

#

The lc im getting is a rx 580 and im gonna grt a 1060

#

If i find a pc that has a 1060 in it itl be over my budget

#

Cus itl have like an i7, asus or as rock mb with 16gb ram and all the other expensive stuff

rose eagle
#

Is that $700 a new PSU ?

unkempt mirage
#

Whats PSU? Sorry im kind of new when it comes to tech stuff

forest token
#

power supply

rose eagle
#

Power supply

#

New drives too?

#

That seems dirt cheap

unkempt mirage
#

Wym by is 700 a new PSU

#

Lemme actually send u a link of the pc

rose eagle
#

I was just parting out a build on a 8400

#

$814 with 1060 so yeah

unkempt mirage
#

Dang

rose eagle
#

That's dirt cheap they aren't marking it up pre built

#

Just selling everything built I guess

#

That's with a decent msi Mobo

unkempt mirage
#

I wouldve buit a custom pc but, everything in the market it getting too expensive

rose eagle
#

Oh that's even with Windows 10

#

$100 right here

unkempt mirage
#

Yup

unborn epoch
#

That's cheap

unkempt mirage
#

Its bot im my budget, im only 14 soo, i dont has a job yet so i cant get anything too expensive

unborn epoch
#

The 580 is plenty for 1080p

unkempt mirage
#

Not*

#

Brb

rose eagle
#

$679 parted out no windows

unborn epoch
#

You can get windows for $10

#

Just buy an OEM key

rose eagle
#

Man is seems to be cheap parts they even list what's in it

unkempt mirage
#

Wuts an OEM key?

rose eagle
#

You really need new drives? And power supply? You said you have a case?

unkempt mirage
#

No i dont have a case rn

rose eagle
#

Ohh

unkempt mirage
#

Ye

#

My one fear of building a pc is breaking something cus i have a habit of forcing things

rose eagle
#

Well that's only $50

#

Hehe

#

Well that's why they make stuff

unkempt mirage
#

Whats only 50?

rose eagle
#

A good enough case

unkempt mirage
#

Oh

rose eagle
#

Ah well you'll get inferior parts but if you'll destroy $300 worth of parts πŸ˜‚

unkempt mirage
#

Yea lol

storm osprey
#

pre builts commonly have the cheap shit for parts

unkempt mirage
#

Also im afraid of the pc not powering up and buying parts that are dead

rose eagle
#

Time to grow some nuts and patience!

unborn epoch
#

If parts are dead on arrival you have the right to return them

unkempt mirage
#

Tru,

unborn epoch
#

This rarely happens btw

unkempt mirage
#

Oh

unborn epoch
#

I've built 100s of machines. Only a handful had dead parts

rose eagle
#

It's like 5 screws into the board and stuff plugs into slots but that's easy since I'm old

unkempt mirage
#

I somewhat know how to build a pc, ive watched multiple tutorials

rose eagle
#

I remember my first build like 25 years ago, took 3 hours but nothing went wrong

unborn epoch
#

Only part that needs a little force is ram and the CPU cooler depending on mounting mechanism

unkempt mirage
#

Alright

rose eagle
#

Yeah the cpu fan and heatsink could be a diaster if you went aftermarket

#

Like insane catastrophy lol

#

The stock one is pretty easy

unkempt mirage
#

So ive been doing research for about 5 months now and i keep on going back and forth with deciding to build a pc or jist buy a prebuilt one UGH!!! Good god im still stuck between them

unborn epoch
#

Noctua coolers are easier to install than stock imo

#

Their mounting mechanism is so good

rose eagle
#

The 212 Evo was a fucking bear

#

But I missed a small spacer

#

Had to take the whole damn board out and start over

unkempt mirage
#

When i talk to ppl online they say build one but my parents say just buy a prebuild cus itll save time and would have less risk i just dont know

rose eagle
#

Haha well they paying for it?

unkempt mirage
#

No

#

I am

unborn epoch
#

Do you have friends with pc building experience?

unkempt mirage
#

I want to build a pc for the experience but idk

#

Nope

#

Only my friends dad i think

unborn epoch
#

I assume your father has 0 or he hates you

unkempt mirage
#

I think hes built a pc

rose eagle
#

I mean... As long as you don't slip a screwdriver and shove it into the board

unkempt mirage
#

He knows tech but hes never built a pc

unborn epoch
unkempt mirage
#

And he doesnt hate me lolXD

unborn epoch
#

Aight

unkempt mirage
#

He despises me

rose eagle
#

Ram, CPU, video is pretty easy

unkempt mirage
#

Theres a difference

rose eagle
#

If you force cpu...

unkempt mirage
#

Yea i know how to do that

rose eagle
#

Only goes one way but I guess you could bend all the pins lol

unkempt mirage
#

Just put the cpu down and dont touch the top right?

rose eagle
#

Yes it drops in no force

unborn epoch
#

Align the corners and put down the bracket

unkempt mirage
#

Thought so

#

Yup

unborn epoch
#

The bracket takes some force

rose eagle
#

If it doesn't, lift and make sure it's got the right corner aligned

unkempt mirage
#

Alright

rose eagle
#

There's only one tiny corner to line up

unkempt mirage
#

Left or right side?

unborn epoch
#

You'll see.

unkempt mirage
#

OHH! The suspense!!😱

unborn epoch
#

That cyber power machine is decent though

#

Unless you really want nvidia

unkempt mirage
#

I do prefer navidia but i can always change it to navidia, or will i have tk change the motherboard for that?

unborn epoch
#

No

#

You can swap it out no problem

unkempt mirage
#

Oh ok, so i can go from the rx 580 to navidia 1060?

#

Without a problem?

#

Coolio

unborn epoch
#

Ya

unkempt mirage
#

Dope, thx for the help guys

unborn epoch
#

If you are going that route build it yourself

#

Going from 580 to 1060 isn't worth it

#

Good luck

rose eagle
#

yea thats kind of lateral

#

so its either prebuilt crap parts for same price as great parts πŸ˜‰

#

parted out

unkempt mirage
#

The 1060 is only 230

#

Wait do i need a 1060 or 1060ti for gsync?

unborn epoch
#

Both support gsync

unkempt mirage
#

Oh alright

unborn epoch
#

Everything from 600 series and up support it

unkempt mirage
#

Oh alright thank you guys so much! πŸ˜πŸ‘ŒπŸ»

#

Lol idk cya later

unborn epoch
#

noiceπŸ‘Œ

unkempt mirage
#

Noice

prime jasper
#

I'm sorta new to EA (always been skeptical cus of the high prices.) I'm finally in, but I need some friends. Anyone wanna?

#

OwO

unborn epoch
#

Check out the looking for games channel

prime jasper
#

People are typing

#

O ok but why

ocean valve
#

@prime jasper If you need people to play with, please ask in the LFG channels #lfg-pc #lfg-playstation or #lfg-xbox depending on your platform.. Do not post in Tech

unborn epoch
#

That's why

prime jasper
#

O ok

#

Thx

steep gust
#

@unkempt mirage build one

#

It's super easy

unkempt mirage
#

Im thinking about it

prime jasper
#

@unborn epoch just noticed that I have enough courage to ask a girl out to homecoming, but not enough courage to play mulitplayer on my own. Lol

unborn epoch
#

Well guns kill people

prime jasper
#

O

unborn epoch
#

For anything technology related

prime jasper
#

I have a computer

#

There

#

Tech related

#

Boom

unborn epoch
#

You fit right in

prime jasper
#

Yay

unkempt mirage
#

I have a crappy 1300 dollar laptop, can u guess what it is??

#

Wel currently, obviously im gonna get a pc

unborn epoch
#

1300 dollar current value?

unkempt mirage
#

Yea it hasn’t gone down cus the company want money

unborn epoch
#

Probably macbook

unkempt mirage
#

Yup

#

Howd u know

#

Nvm

unborn epoch
unkempt mirage
#

I dont wanna start a fight

#

I hate fights

unborn epoch
#

You shouldn't be playing battlefield then

unkempt mirage
#

Oh damn

#

Rather i dont like starting fights

unborn epoch
#

It's all good. Don't worry about it

#

Macbooks are no good for games. Only good for browsing Instagram while at Starbucks.

forest token
#

50% price difference for 15% performance increase over 1070 ti

#

assuming $400~ for 1070ti (price I paid), although there is one on newegg for $360, and multiple around $400

rose eagle
#

"one"

#

gigabytes dont count πŸ˜„

forest token
#

ye sand one for $385

#

and zotac $400

rose eagle
#

the base $500 2070 is 15% better

#

which are avail

#

i mean its really a sht kick in the pants card release but its still not obvious what to buy if you are coming from < 10xx

#

probably the cheapest acceptable 1070Ti id buy is $430

forest token
#

non founder would probably be between 1080 and 2070 founders

rose eagle
#

so to me it's more 430 vs 500

forest token
#

going to look for more reviews

rose eagle
#

mine is arriving Tues ;P

#

ish

#

1070ti wasnt ever really an option for my 1440p gaming needs, 1080 minimum

#

$500

#

well jesus.. newegg's EVGA 1080s are higher than a 2070 lol

#

this is all just a huge mess

#

stock is gone, 1070Ti is last of the crap remaining and fk if ill pay $500 for that card

#

$450 even for B Stock from EVGA on 1080s

#

you can score a B stock 1070Ti from EVGA website for $350

#

1 yr warranty

#

which i prob shoulda done and upgraded the rest of my rig but ehhh

forest token
#

what do you mean by b stock?

rose eagle
#

refurb basically but better than buying off ebay

#

i mean... $350.. sadly is cheap in this shit time

#

and that's the SC version

#

missed the 1 week window everyone clearing all their 1080/Ti stock

prime jasper
#

having freesync monitor as a rival to gtx 1070-ti i'd go vega rx 56. the sapphire nitro+ or red devil ones are kind of reasonably priced. the hugest fortune would be to find on a good price margin xfx rx 56 vega.

#

the hybrid one.

#

amd is flexibility in terms of interface, nvidia is rough performance on the top of the line 3 latest cards they have got.
on budget both of them are the rivals and winners.

lofty light
#

Yeah Vega 56 would be a good alternative for that performance range, main issue is I'm still seeing them with high prices as they haven't finished bouncing back from the mining boom

prime jasper
#

rx 580's in the country i live in still suffers from mining kraze. i managed pick up rx 580 8gb red dragon powercolor powered one for 264eur.

#

the hugest problem is due to advertisement "asus the god" but on reality for the price asus nvidia/amd cards costs u can afford brand new 1070 lower tier or zotac one a mid range amp core one.
the sapphire and powercolor ones prices are decent. XFX with there GTR-S and GTS editions of hard swap fans are in premium range~340euros, msi ~310euros as aorus gigabyte ones. asus strix-~400-440euros which is fked up.

#

vega rx 56 480-540euros, as 1080/1070ti but it's kind of fair pricing-the freesync monitor equal to nvidia's gsync ones with oled panels has about 250-300eur difference.
let's say Freesync oled(qled) 1080p curved VA panel samsung monitor 24inch goes for 270-350euros, the gsync equal one would cost 500-650+euros.

steep gust
#

GPU brand means nothing on RTX / Pascal due to power limits, etc

#

Also gsync will cost at a minimum $250 for profits, due to the cost of the gsync module

Add in the panel then you get like $350+

prime jasper
#

buying 60-75hz gsync monitor 1080p is a waste so as 1440p

#

buying fsync one as this-worth due to reasonable pricing

#

gsync only 144hz and above for 1080p+
TFT VA Qled(oled) panels are not for nothing priced in premium range. in fact OLED VA panel 4k 144hz monitor goes for at least 1200$ which is 32inch if i'm not wrong. for equal nvidia gsync one supporting pnp one would go even more if not 2000$ hands down.

quaint topaz
#

Black Friday is getting close.

rose eagle
#

and alas i have nothing to buy

quaint topaz
#

might go for the Logitech G910 (or g810). πŸ€”

prime jasper
#

how about das keyboard?

quaint topaz
#

Only complaints I've read about the G910 are the key caps

#

G810 is very comfortable, tried it before. But I'll be missing the macro keys

prime jasper
#

tbh the romer-g especially tactile suffers from mushness and actuation.

#

i mean seriouslly they do, i own g413 can tell you from experience

quaint topaz
#

I felt that the romer-g switches are very loud especially if you type fast. Can hear the springs ringing

prime jasper
#

they're similar to cherry mx browns but in time starting creeking

#

it's not that loud tbh. just very very undurable-the later the worse and louder sound gets. if you're writing alot and gaming get cherry mx reds

quaint topaz
#

I was looking at the K70 brown switches but there's a huge price difference

#

I do have a Logitech g502 mouse. Can sync the RGB LUL

prime jasper
#

hyperx, because k95 and k70lux/k68RGB's cherry mx reds suffers from unbelieveably loud spounds

#

ahh so you go due to design then

#

then check what's more affordable for you and includes rgb from logitech's side.

quaint topaz
#

Brown switches felt really tactile and silent. Romer-g were all over the place

prime jasper
#

but i'd rlly advice you go cherry mx reds anyways.

rose eagle
#

i want a new machine just so i can get an m.2 drive, bad itch to have lol

#

yea i love my cherry mx browns on my k70 lux

quaint topaz
#

Corsair had many keyboards laying around at gamescom for people to try. Should've gave them more time.

rose eagle
#

not having a tactile feedback erkd me bad

#

and they are much harder for typing and im a programmer

#

i can assure you k70 browns are amazing ;D

#

but... to each their own on keyboards

quaint topaz
#

I mean I can pick up a G810 which is significantly cheaper and then add a keypad for macros later

#

I'm like the laziest person you can ever meet. Why use two fingers for a shortcut when you can use your pinky for a dedicated macro key feelsmeowman

ocean valve
#

Thats what she said Chag

#

Jk
But my wallet is soooo ready for black friday cant wait

molten coral
#

I love my G810 and will pick up a another G810 if this one dies.

ocean valve
#

Im thinking the same. Using a razer atm but thinking to switch to logitech

molten coral
#

I already broke a couple of them because of water damage

#

Hess have his own blackout crew now thats hes winning games

storm osprey
#

@quaint topaz I've had the g810 for a while now, it's great. They are slightly less tactile, shorter traveling browns, with built in sound dampening. The only key that is loud is the space bar, everything else is super quiet.

quaint topaz
#

hmm

storm osprey
#

if youd like i have my g810 and cherry reds with orings

#

could do a blind test to see if you hear a difference

#

granted things like board dampening and keycaps can make a difference in sound as well

#

i also have red gaterons on me, my gateron browns are at work though

unkempt mirage
#

@rose eagle will a 1050 still work with gsync or no? i forgot to ask yesterday

storm osprey
#

1050 is pretty lowly, id say at least get a 1050ti, but they should all work with gsync

rose eagle
#

Yea I hope you don't plan on playing V on one

#

Minimum is 1060 imo

full musk
#

10606GB minimum

#

don't bother toying with a 1050

#

made that mistake

prime jasper
#

Origin won't let me search people to add them as a friend. All it directs me to is a blank page. What do I do?

#

Dm me answers

#

you're better off going rx 570 instead of 1050ti 4gb-theyre priced similar but 4gb rx 570 is unbelieaveably faster(match r9 390/290) in terms of performance. this is why amd competition is so enjoyable and great for budget users. you easily beat down nvidia's offered perf for similar price. i'm not amd fanboy-i'm a traitor of brands and manfacturers. switching is the best of having value set ups. i understand people having fx/i5/i7 2nd gen rigs until this day but i dont get the point of building an old amd fx rig now a days wheres old intels/ryzen just do even better.

#

@unkempt mirage gtx 1050ti is an outdate card. sure it;'s a budget one but such a waste of cash. save some money and get rx 570 4gb mini itx one from sapphire or the pulse one with two fans. you can age 570 better than what 1050-ti allows you to. gsync is only for high ends/premium card owners not budget ones.

what kind of fakenews is this

not fake news but reality

unborn epoch
#

i'm talking about image quality

#

we all know nvidia has superior gpus performance wise

prime jasper
#

then dont forget r9 390/x-r9 290-x that are second hands @prime jasper 10603-6gb/rx 580 4-8gb perf level

#

doesnt have superior performance wise in budget-only on high end(top of the line cards)

#

r9 290x is faster than gtx 1050ti even used r9 290x is just as cheap(despite its age).

#

gtx 1050/ti is gtx 950 to 960

unborn epoch
#

source us on image quality

prime jasper
#

r9 290 matches gtx 970(ocd abou 980s perf) aka rx 50 4gb

#

rx 580 8gb is r9 fury-X tbh but so much more efficient.

unborn epoch
#

where does it say anything about image quality

prime jasper
#

check the whole video.

#

read the comments

#

inspect the images.

true, even video on nvidia looks like a bit less colored, i mentioned this almost 13 years back, and still nothings changes, AMD= best quality, a bit lower fps, Nvidia = Uber FPS, Average image quality, that's the fact since first GTX was created.ο»Ώ

unborn epoch
#

you might notice a difference on 10bit panels

prime jasper
#

i noticed that on 8bit also

unborn epoch
#

that guy in your post used TN panels

prime jasper
#

right after i switched from gtx 960 4gb to 580 8gb ive tested on OW

unborn epoch
#

also a biased source.

prime jasper
#

in quality mode for text filtering and also perf mode-even on perf mode amd graphics looked slightly better

#

panels as long theyre identical and monitor models provides 1:1 identical rgb/srgb etc color quality it's a fair comparison. like some acer predator monitor uses same tn/ips panel as asus rog one for their high ends.-as long it matches in terms of quality you're free to compare including monitor's models difference.

unborn epoch
#

biased fake news

#

cool u think it's better, haven't seen any proof

prime jasper
unborn epoch
#

both look like dogshit

#

blame youtube compression

prime jasper
#

this is exactly how huge difference there is between nvidia and amd graphics-amd's more contrasting.

unborn epoch
#

how can you even tell, they aren't even the same shots

prime jasper
#

the card's so far are on a par of the same perf and similar time released

#

nvidia's has more blur on identical settings

unborn epoch
#

i'm looking at a compressed mess, what are you talkin gabout

#

I think I'm going crazy.

prime jasper
#

side by side comparison is only way to tell the difference

#

could you tell normal lcd/led ips panel looks worse than oled one of the same resolution settings on the same smartphone?

#

without comparing it side by side?

unborn epoch
#

oled to lcd? definitely

#

tn to ips? definitely

prime jasper
#

thats why i show you side by side comparison

#

slowmotion is only way to detect the differences.

unborn epoch
#

lol

#

please read up on compression

#

this says nothing

#

both look equally terrible

prime jasper
#

that amd has better colors is old known fact. people just refuse that and go over that for extra 2-3frames.

unborn epoch
#

I haven't seen any facts yet.

prime jasper
#

then you're outdated in gpu's market.

unborn epoch
#

also old facts don't mean a darn thing, bought an amd beepboop5000? too bad the amd beepboop6000 came out with dingdong support

prime jasper
#

you;re hatin on the brands dont you?

unborn epoch
#

not at all

#

you're spreading fakenews without supporting it with facts

#

hence fakenews

prime jasper
#

thats what you're thinking "amd is worse than nvidia bc it's nvidia"

#

every fanboy can say that.

unborn epoch
#

i never implied that

prime jasper
#

nvidia has 3fastest gpus for gaming on the market, but on budget under 500$/euros, whether amd or nvidia they're both competitors.

unborn epoch
#

sure

#

never tried to claim this wasn't the case

#

i only said NVIDIA has superior cards, which is in fact true

prime jasper
#

for how long? until amd release smth better and lose to amd?

#

high end war always has competitors-one wins other loses. in budget market their performance is equal, in some games/tasks amd wins, in some amd loses.

#

rx 480 and ryzen was a ascension for amd, the vega(rx 64 vega especially) a fall. amd released ryzen to compete with mainstream inte;l 6-7th gen cpus that forced intel to realsed 8th generation before even they switched on cooking 9th gen intels.

rose eagle
#

No one cares if image fidelity is mildly affected for some weird reason AMD keeps thinking someone will

unborn epoch
#

also you can't compare image quality on a TN panel, get real

rose eagle
#

Some day when we are just full realism with nowhere to go it will be all about shinies

prime jasper
#

@rose eagle what would you prefer if can choose for the same price? gtx 1050ti 4gb or amd rx 570 4gb?

rose eagle
#

I don't know anything about amd tbh

prime jasper
#

but in terms of performance-what's your pick.

rose eagle
#

I do know almost everyone suggests it for low end though

prime jasper
#

so what you're saying: "amd is for poor people" ?

unborn epoch
#

nopoors allowed

rose eagle
#

Lol no

prime jasper
#

user spends 800$ on amd 1950x

unborn epoch
#

only 1080ti+ owners

prime jasper
#

does it mean he's"poor" ?

rose eagle
#

You said gpu

prime jasper
#

having rx vega 56 rival gtx 1070-ti means "he\s poor" ?

#

user buys 1.2k $ freesync monitor for his vega card that runs 4k @144hz on oled display means "he's poor" ?

unborn epoch
#

pajeet, relax

rose eagle
#

Jesus, sensitive much

prime jasper
#

i'm just checking reactions. nick's defending intel with his "masterrace top of the line logic".

unborn epoch
#

intel? we're talking about gpus here

rose eagle
#

I'm not elitist

prime jasper
#

in fact, what's the point of buying top tier hardware if you have no idea how to use it.

unborn epoch
#

i'm in fact in favor of amd on the cpu market at thet moment

#

gpu market, not so much

prime jasper
#

not you @rose eagle but nick is elitist.

rose eagle
#

You're just being controversial and I'm in no mood

#

I said low end what if I had said mid tier

#

Would that not have triggered you?

prime jasper
#

doesnt trigger me at all

rose eagle
#

You went off lol

#

With no one responding

prime jasper
#

if you said low end-i'd understand as you're talking about something as r7 240 vs gt 730 xd

rose eagle
#

I think sensitive people troll me

#

To me a 1060 is low end

#

Is the lowest card that will play V

prime jasper
#

on ultra 40-60fps yep

rose eagle
#

On 1080p on low

prime jasper
#

but reducing settings it gets better

rose eagle
#

It got like 60 fps 1440p low man lol

unborn epoch
#

my 1080ti was struggling at times on ultr 1440p :c

prime jasper
#

1080p high/ultra @40-60fps, on 1440p it might be low.

rose eagle
#

From reports and beta to release will only get like +10%

prime jasper
#

due to higher resolutions textures to render.

rose eagle
#

60 fps is a minimum acceptable framerate

#

Ever for an fps

#

I got 50-80 in beta and it was horrific

unborn epoch
#

ur just an elitist bro

rose eagle
#

Game face bro!!

#

chest bump

#

Testosterone!!!!

unborn epoch
rose eagle
#

AMD sucks!

unborn epoch
#

gotta get a permit for that nuclear reactor in my basement first

prime jasper
#

i can tell nvidia sucks. where i l ive gtx 1050 ti 4gb strix costs the same as amd rx 570 4gb mini or pulse one 4gb

#

πŸ˜‚

#

just because it's "asus strix"

#

rx 580 8gb strix goes for 400euros, the sapphire nitro+ limited edition for 330~ euros,. for 400+eur i can get 1070 from zotac amp core one

rose eagle
#

I'm mad at AMD for not competing well enough to let Nvidia get away with this

brittle tapir
#

Does anyone know how to decode Morse code for the battlefield one Easter egg

prime jasper
#

gtx 1060 6gb strix costs 430euros

#

the same as zotac gtx 1070 amd

rose eagle
#

Wtf lol

prime jasper
#

basically-asus is the problem for reasonable prices here. and nvidia is just even more idiotic under this brand

rose eagle
#

1060 should be $230 USD

unborn epoch
#

the gpu market is fucked atm, not entirely nvidia's fault

prime jasper
#

well nvidia is advertised here as "God brand"

rose eagle
#

AMD equiv is $180

prime jasper
#

thats why some castrated 1050ti costs about 220euros

unborn epoch
#

nvidia is godbrand for highest performance

#

amd doesn't come close, simple fact

prime jasper
#

and rx 570 4gb mini/pulse goes for 180-210eur

unborn epoch
#

I remember the good old days where ATI released their radeon 9700pro

prime jasper
#

while gtx 1060 3gb ~240euros and 6gb 280-to 430euros.

unborn epoch
#

sadly, that's no longer the case

prime jasper
#

@unborn epoch you know the feeling when some shitty brand keeps prices ruined?

unborn epoch
#

game less, work more, buy better graphics card

prime jasper
#

just because of that reason amd and nvidia cards prices aren't adequate.

#

look

#

rx 570 pulse/mini itx for htcp's-180-210eur. strix one gtx 1050ti ~220eur

unborn epoch
#

also where the hell are the micro led monitors man, OLED is ass

prime jasper
#

gtx 1060 3gbnot asus or strix-240-290eur, 6gb 280-430eur(strix prices at 430s) as rx 580 8gb strix(gtx 1070 price tag).

unborn epoch
#

pretty sure the 570 is more powerhungry and noisier

prime jasper
#

which fucks up market

#

gtx 580 8gb i got on stock eats 90-130W on load mostly

#

max 140-190W without ocing. which is reasonable.
card's average noise is about 35Db's) .

rose eagle
#

You seem pretty hung up on amd

prime jasper
#

nvidia has exactly the same or very similar noise level.

rose eagle
#

Would you ever buy an Nvidia card if the price was identical?

prime jasper
#

well i just hate the country i live in marketshare "asus the god", asus sticker adds +1000fps

#

depending on situation yeh

#

if i could get for 260euros brand new 1070 as i got my 580 8gb

#

i would.

#

then i resell, buy again and get 1080 for example or vega+ better monitor?

rose eagle
#

I'm mad amd or someone doesn't have anything worthwhile to upgrade my 3770K

#

The 2700x is no better

unborn epoch
#

it will destroy your cpu in multithreaded workloads

#

games not so much

prime jasper
#

if you're just gaming 3770k is just as good. but if you multitask 2700x might be better choice

#

for streaming and multitasking 2700x is also better especially after oc.

unborn epoch
#

i went from a c2quad 9500 to a 7700K

prime jasper
#

p ractical people goes threadripper.

rose eagle
#

Nah never stream I'm old lol

unborn epoch
#

tbh, streaming shouldn't even be done on the same machine

prime jasper
#

intel X-pure performance, practical choice: ryzen epyc-threadripper.

unborn epoch
#

get a 2nd pc for that

rose eagle
#

Min fps is where I'm still unsure if I'm having problems but I game at 1440p so it's more gpu

#

I guess I should be happy I can keep my entire rig for 8 years lol

prime jasper
#

on both situations you get screwed up and forced to built custom loop rig to cool down these monstrosities.

unborn epoch
#

the problem is the cheats I know you use

rose eagle
#

I'm just mad I can't get a 970 evo

unborn epoch
#

that kills your game performance

rose eagle
#

No m.2

#

My MacBook is running my Plex server now

#

Finally made use of it

unborn epoch
#

im still using KODI

rose eagle
#

I wish I could test minimum fps results and graph it for V

prime jasper
#

ohhh you still here. excuse but returning watch the stream.

rose eagle
#

Translation lol

#

I'm always here

unborn epoch
#

i wish i could play V

#

so i could test it or something

rose eagle
#

Mhmm I got a 2070 showing up and want to see if I can prove my old cpu causes any issues

unborn epoch
#

if I don't get 2:1+ kdr i'm blaming my fps

rose eagle
#

Sounds legit

#

I'll blame my 5 year old

unborn epoch
#

you should

rose eagle
#

He's a scapegoat for literally everything

#

Why have a kid if you can't abuse that

#

Wife, kid broke PC I need a 9700K

unborn epoch
#

yup

#

brb i need a kid too, and a wife

#

which one should I go for first?

rose eagle
#

You could just do it simultaneous

unborn epoch
#

i can't multitask for shit

rose eagle
#

Get an i7

unborn epoch
#

can't even sing in the shower and clean myself at the same time

rose eagle
#

We need a system that lets you pick parts and replace them to simulate performance changes

#

Why the hell doesn't this exist

#

Servers that can spin up fps tests remotely and match configurations. I'm sure a 1080Ti can simply be clocked down to exactly simulate a 1060 etc 😎

Someone get on it

real heron

Lol my friend thought his pc ran out of thermal paste

#

But

#

When he checked his cpu was just loose

rose eagle
#

How often you have to replace that crap

#

I just had stock on my 3770k for 6 years

#

I don't think I ever kept a cpu long enough to need to change the paste

wet notch
#

i changed cpu fan recently after having computer for 2 years

#

basically all the thermal paste was gone, was "stock paste" though

#

i reckon that if i had actually bought a good thermal paste it would lasted longer

unborn epoch
#

if you buy quality shit you dont have to replace it for years on end

prime raptor
#

I'm pretty sure even for gooder stuff like Noctua NTH-1 you should still change it out every couple years

unborn epoch
#

i've ran my q9500 for 6 years, only changed it once (in the first year)

#

temps never changed much

prime jasper
prime raptor
#

but it's not oled?

prime jasper
#

Qled is oled

prime raptor
#

No, it's not

prime jasper
#

QLED/QLED/SUPER AMOLED. it's all OLED

prime raptor
#

hence the different letters

prime jasper
#

Qled is only marketing name

prime raptor
#

OLED doesn't have backlight, qled does

prime jasper
#

like super amoled or retina amoled

prime raptor
#

because the diodes in qled don't actually emit light

#

It's not oled

prime jasper
#

mhm

prime raptor
#

So while it is more color accurate, you're still getting FAR worse contrast then OLED

prime jasper
#

well for budget monitor isnt bad at all.

prime raptor
#

I never said it was bad, it's just not in the same league as OLED displays

prime jasper
#

comparing to TN junkies on the same price tag. i'd pick this VA over a cheapo TN

unborn epoch
#

qlen is definitely not oled

#

wtf lol

#

qled*

prime jasper
#

well nvm

prime raptor
#

idk

#

There are some nice TN panels

prime jasper
#

TN was okay a year ago

#

but now VA just takes the top

#

premium TN panels yes

prime raptor
#

I was gonna say my main monitor is TN

prime jasper
#

the cheapo one on pricings as this one, they became avoidable like plague.

#

i use TN;s also.

prime raptor
#

It's got better color reproduction then my IPS

prime jasper
#

but thinking to change that to smth other as main

unborn epoch
#

ips masterrace

prime jasper
#

this samsung monitor is reference

unborn epoch
#

can't wait for microled monitors

prime raptor
#

MicroLED will be amazing

prime jasper
#

i never use full backlight on my monitors. so they can last me a while

#

also it's better for eyes, doesnt get tired as much.

prime raptor
#

That's why I use flux\

prime jasper
#

i keep light reduced to 40% or 50%

Bit of a suggestion on this one, Could you add a patch notes tab so we can see through the patches for battlefield 5, people will take this for reference when trying to find patch notes or history of patch notes.

#

@flint locust Could you consider that mate? Thanks in advance

full musk

I like how you tag the admin that is idle

not idle lul

at least for me

for some odd reason it wasn't displaying my friend streaming a few hours ago so herp

rose eagle
#

Anyone have it looked at the Corsair 470x/570x case? Should probably replace mine some day. Back mounted drives sound nice

unborn epoch
#

they are pretty decent cases

rose eagle
#

mine is from 2000 era and full tower with no top fans and only 1 intake at the bottom

#

2 out

#

so im sure anything would be better

unborn epoch
#

lol pretty much

rose eagle

hey you never know, full tower all metal!

unborn epoch
#

full steel, 100lbs just case

#

cray cray

rose eagle
#

I mean it's not going anywhere and I bet it wouldn't let me oc my components any more lol

#

So why spend $150

#

If I plan on upgrading my entire rig next year I might look for amazing deals on black Friday for case and power supply to spread the spending

prime jasper

i made a reverse card emblem for bf4

Meshify c and the mini are great cases

Hello

Any delidded friendos here

long sphinx
#

1st gen i5 master race no need to delid my cpu like a pleb

rose eagle
#

most people prob dont realize i5 min fps problems

queen field
#

No no no

#

Problems can't ketchup if you go fast!

#

So overclock away! Remove the chip! Delidded friendos gets more overclock in headroom thanks to lowered load temperatures

#

Anyways yea

#

Was with an 4690k, got it to a sweet mild OC of 4.4ghz

#

I often play battlefield 4, CPU load often hits near 100%, once it peaks, causes frame time to fuck up and there comes the lag

#

On dis 4770k, oh boy

#

Recording OBS & playing battlefield with CPU load averaging 60 to 70%

prime raptor
#

i7 masterrace

#

I got a 6700k

#

stock clocks

#

Fast enough for what I doobledo

#

I really want a nice Threadripper

floral elbow
#

Is there a significant difference between an i7 6700 and a i7 6700k

prime jasper
#

using i5 4590 with h97 micro atx mobo. thinking get second hand i7 4770/4790-k.

#

not enough for battlefield1/GTAV online πŸ˜‰

#

@floral elbow only unlocked multiplier for ocing. if you're not wiling to oc-avoid it. and anyways you can always find cheaper a better i7 older gen cpu. i7 5820k/5930k used might be a better choice than getting the newer 6700-k.

steep gust
#

@prime raptor i7 is a marketing scheme that means nothing (thanks 9th gen)

Threadripper is generally not worth the cost for most people, get a 2700x and call it a day

plush smelt
#

for battlefield v, what is best? 6 cores / 12 threads or 8 cores /8 threads?

prime jasper
unborn epoch
#

7700k 5ghz masterreace

wispy wing
#

@plush smelt 8700k / 9700k

prime jasper
#

amd's easy way for multi tasking and streaming-some fps less in games but it's not a huge difference.
6-7th gen cpus i7 are pointless bc theyre bloody pricy-you rather get an older 4th gen i7 or go broadwell/hasswell-E on x99

#

8-9th gen i7's pretty much matches hexa core x99 5820k/5930k in terms of perf. but the older generation costs also reasonably cheaper(the cooling requires as much investments though).

queen field
#

3rd gen to 8th gen chips are πŸ’©

#

intel uses πŸ’© for their IHS, hence the awful thermals you see even when you slap a dual tower HSF or dual rad aio to ur shiny new intel cpu

prime jasper
#

7980XE got mayonaise under the IHS πŸ’©

rose eagle
#

what cases everyone sporting? mine is from 2000 full tower with a single 80mm intake and 2 out the rear.. might be time to rip the bays out and put 2 more intakes in or just buy a new one

#

considering just getting a few 3.5 conversion bays and putting all 3 drives up in the top lol

prime jasper
rose eagle
#

lol how do they do these exact split tests

#

i mean, the problem with any of this conspiracy theorizing is that nvidia has zero room to ever lose any performance even if they increased visuals

prime jasper
#

dual boot os for example or XDD?

#

using a server board for pc to run run amd and nvidia gpus at the same time on diff monitors?

#

with gaming board it wouldnt work to test so well-due to pci-e 1st slot beeing x16 and secondary x8.

rose eagle
#

the problem with tech today is the freesync and gsync, pretty much locked us to a technology

#

even if AMD released a high end card for $500 with exact perf as 2070 im stuck with nvidia

prime jasper
#

@rose eagle stuck with tech@freesync's more affordable.

rose eagle
#

so.. just took off my front intake fan, only a single 80mm and it was 99.99% caked shut

#

vacuum would not phase it at all, had to take qtips and spin them in circles and pull it through.. worked a treat fyi πŸ˜„

prime jasper
#

for the case i run NZXT S340.

rose eagle
#

i saw that one, seemed pretty solid compared to the 470x Corsair

#

was also looking at the lian li 011air

#

3 in, 1 out, 1 up?

#

mine has 1 in, 2 out and nothing else so im sure i can get some better air flow in this thing and the biggest thing im looking for is to remove the HDD bays. The rear mounted HD setups look nice.

prime jasper
#

470X/460X corsair isnt made for airflow(air cooled set ups). it's for aios and custom loops.

#

nzxt noctis or phantom series are better for airflow. or cooler master HAF(&some of cosmos cases).

#

if you're wiling to make a custom loop(custom open watercooling loop) set up you're good to go for 470/460X case or similar. for air cooled rigs-just don't.

rose eagle
#

What the hell, why doesn't 2070 support 144hz to 1440p over HDMI?

#

or even 1080

#

HDMI 2 supposedly can but the specs on the 2070 im looking at don't support it

floral elbow
#

I can upgrade my intel g4560 to a used i7 6700 for $90, but I probably wont be able to upgrade again for at least a year

#

Do you think a 6700 is good enough to run bfv at 1080p 60fps (paired with 1050ti)

#

Or should I not even bother with the 6700 and just get a 8700k

worn storm
#

6700 is surely enough to get 60fps in bf1 ...

rose eagle
#

the 1050ti might be cutting it

#

but ouch never heard of that 4560, 2c4t? yea that might tank, can you even play Bf1?

floral elbow
#

Yeah bf1 runs great on the g4560 1050ti setup

rose eagle
#

have you benched the min/max?

floral elbow
#

That shows its performance in bf1

#

But the cpu definitely needs an upgrade for bfv

rose eagle
#

thats really shocking

floral elbow
#

Yeah the g4560 is incredibly underrated

rose eagle
#

i mean 2 cores lol

#

i thought my old ass 3770k 4c8t was aging

#

not sure if theres new tech in that cpu that makes it that much better or what

#

mine is from 2012

floral elbow
#

Bf1 had some pretty good optimization

#

The g4560 is kabylake iirc

rose eagle
#

you can expect around a 20% drop in frames in V

floral elbow
#

I think im gonna go with the used i7 6700 for $90

rose eagle
#

that your budget?

floral elbow
#

That price cant be beat

#

I could spend more but its an offer from a friend thats too good to pass up

worn storm
#

true

#

for 60Hz gaming it's also a bit future proof

floral elbow
#

60fps is good enough for me

rose eagle
#

just not sure you'll get a ton better fps but yea, 1080 is def CPU dependent

#

at that level the AMD cards are insanely better price perf

#

gpu's

#

ill prob end up ditching my 970 for $100

rugged summit
#

I got a 980ti

#

And looking to upgrade me cpu

#

Ima gona get a 2700x with asus rog x470-f moba

#

I got the fx-8350 right now

rose eagle
#

yea them non HT cpu's take a shit on the min FPS side

#

unless it's at least 6c6t

#

you may not get a lot of higher end fps but it should stop all the hard drops

near agate
#

Dumb question: Are there usually any deals for cpus during Black Friday?

rugged summit
#

Yea

#

Well for me im by a fry electronic

#

And on Amazon

rugged summit
#

The 8350 bottlenecks my 980ti so u probably get some bottlenecking also

#

The 8350 came out in 2012 if im right

#

@plain vessel

#

The 2700x blowz it out of the water

#

But if your looking to oc it @plain vessel i hear the 2700 is better for it then the 2700x

#

Im gona wait for black friday /cyber Monday @plain vessel to see if i can get cheap

#

I can play bfv right now with what i got so ill wait

#

I just cant wait for the 9th tho

rugged summit
#

Ill say wait also @plain vessel

rose eagle
#

i feel like Battlefront 2 is a good judge of FPS for V

rose eagle
#

64 avg, vomit

#

i dont recall gaming at this horrible of FPS in Battlefront 2

#

i guess that's accurate... Tom's hardware has a 970gtx at 43 on ultra

unborn epoch
#

dont bother aiming for ultra settings in bf guys, just saying

rose eagle
#

thats on low everything for visibility except for textures and mesh lol

#

1440p tho

#

i got like 50-80 in V beta

#

i guess BFront 2 runs about on par with it

prime raptor
#

Don't run settings at ultra?

rose eagle
#

55fps 1 % time, that aint gonna cut it!

prime raptor
#

I run my settings in bf1 at ultra.

rose eagle
#

i want my 1% to be at 90

unborn epoch
#

there's a tiny difference visually and performance impact is big

prime raptor
#

I still get over 100fps

#

so what evs

rose eagle
#

yea its nothing, but i said my settings are lowest

unborn epoch
#

what res what gpu?

rose eagle
#

and 1440p

prime raptor
#

1440p 1080ti

rose eagle
#

970!

unborn epoch
#

ur 1080ti is hax

#

there are definitely situations where i dip below 100 on ultra in bf1

prime raptor
#

idk then

rose eagle
#

even if i had a 1080Ti id still run mesh/terrain qual ultra but everything off and low

prime raptor
#

I'm not paying attention to the FPS all teh time

#

But when I look its in teh range of 100-120

unborn epoch
#

i easily notice dips from 120 to 80, it's annoying

rose eagle
#

download Fraps and set it to run a 30 sec bench and then download FRAFS and drop the file on it

prime raptor
#

I have a gsync monitor

rose eagle
#

you'll get a pretty spitout

unborn epoch
#

same

#

you still notice framerate dips

rose eagle
#

you notice 120 to 80 eh?

unborn epoch
#

if you don't, lucky you

rose eagle
#

i noticed 90 to 60 but i have never had above that so πŸ˜„

#

surely 90 to 60 is worse than 120 to 80

prime raptor
#

I mean I went from a 750ti to my 1080ti

#

So...really as long as its better then that

rose eagle
#

yea im going from a 970 to 2070

prime raptor
#

just get a 1080ti?

rose eagle
#

fk used

prime raptor
#

They're still gonna be making them new?

rose eagle
#

no

unborn epoch
#

getting 1080ti for cheap is no longer a thing

rose eagle
#

prices only going up

prime raptor
#

oh

#

huh

#

Still glad I got mine for $700

rose eagle
#

yea you can really only get a 1070Ti

unborn epoch
#

i got mine for dirt cheap, it's not fair

prime raptor
#

I mean that's like $60 off msrp for my card

rose eagle
#

yea $650 was a "steal" for a 1080Ti the 1 week they were on sale lol

unborn epoch
#

gpu market has been messed up for a year unfortuantely

#

still hasn't really fixed itself, nvidia and amd aren't really helping

rose eagle
#

cheapest one ive seen in a while

#

in stock

#

$500 vs $738

#

just get a 1080Ti def not in the cards lol

prime raptor
#

2070 is 500?

rose eagle
#

yep

#

$550 for factory OC nice EVGA

prime raptor
#

I mean that's what all the factory OC cards are

unborn epoch
#

evga is bae if you can buy directly from them

#

and are on time

prime raptor
#

Plus you're getting a better cooler

unborn epoch
#

i got the twin fan cooler, i kind of wish ih ad the 3 fan cooler

#

from evga

prime raptor
#

I got the ftw3

#

It's a nice card

rose eagle
#

1080 are down to $480 lol

#

let me spend $20 less for a 1080, ok!

#

0-10% less perf and no potential for DLSS ever

#

sounds good video card market

unborn epoch
#

ya

#

market is still shit 😦

rose eagle
#

hands got tied.. i had to get something

unborn epoch
#

only buy if you have a nice chance of buying for cheap

#

or you have many millions of currencies in your wallet

rose eagle
#

i have a 970 and i need 1440p 100fps

prime raptor
#

I wish I had teh cash for another 1080ti

rose eagle
#

i honestly had no idea i was playing BFront 2 with 60fps avg..

#

jesus

unborn epoch
#

lul sli

#

what a joke

rose eagle
#

i mean i knew it was shit but to put a # on it hurts

#

yea sli is always inferior to new tech

#

just keep throwing your $1000 a year at the latest card πŸ˜„

#

2 SLI isnt 2x perf

#

you get what... maybe 30% more in games that support it? =/

prime raptor
#

fuck spending 1k on a card

#

fuck spending that much on a 2080ti

rose eagle
#

so you'd spend $1200 on 2 1080Ti over 2080Ti?

#

if the 2080Ti had better perf?

#

than sli 1080Ti

prime raptor
#

I can buy like 16gb of ram for 1k

unborn epoch
#

lul

rose eagle
#

wtf? lol

full musk
#

16GB of ram is like $80

unborn epoch
#

we live in a fucked up world

full musk
#

what are you on

rose eagle
#

$150 πŸ˜„

prime raptor
#

It was a joke people

rose eagle
#

but yea

prime raptor
#

and last I checked 16gb of ram was over $100

rose eagle
#

150 bones!

#

still expensive

#

970 Evo m.2 is nice price atm though

unborn epoch
#

where's the gosh darn 1TB 3d stacked ram that was promised

rose eagle
#

fucking computer builds are always like exactly $1000

#

cause all components go up others come down

prime raptor
#

I wish 16gb of ram was $80

rose eagle
#

you can never just get an all around good deal

prime raptor
#

I'd have 32 then.

rose eagle
#

it was over a year ago x_x

prime raptor
#

It was when I built this compkuter

unborn epoch
#

uhhhh

#

whoops

prime raptor
#

I built my system when skylake came out

unborn epoch
rose eagle
#

i hope my kid nerds out like that

#

so i can have fun

prime raptor
#

Sometime in 2016 iirc

unborn epoch
#

had this sitting at home for a year before I finished it

rose eagle
#

he's 5 so im waiting for his lego smashing and throwing phase to end first.......

#

watching them explode is his favorite

unborn epoch
#

i don't need kids to enjoy legos

rose eagle
#

once you have kids everything you enjoy gets the life sucked out of it so then you have to live through them

#

since you have zero time to yourself

unborn epoch
#

yeah, maybe later

rose eagle
#

you're welcome for today's contraceptive

#

i like to give out weekly doses

unborn epoch
#

i still have about 5 years before I have to look for younger women

rose eagle
#

lol

unborn epoch
#

which i'm not a fan of

rose eagle
#

HAVE to

#

im sure any older woman would always have a younger man πŸ˜„

unborn epoch
#

ya, my mistake. I ain't have to do a damn thing

prime raptor
#

Go marry some doe eyed 18 year old fresh out of highshcool.

unborn epoch
#

she'll cry over my lego ATAT walker

rose eagle
#

none of this fixes my shock at low Battlefront 2 FPS

#

i swear it wasnt 60 when i bought the game

#

you think the theory of nvidia slowly killing off old tech is true eh? πŸ˜‰

prime raptor
#

def probs

rose eagle
#

there's also a conspiracy theory against Apple

#

doing the same

prime raptor
#

Apple actually does do it

rose eagle
#

every update my iphone becomes a bigger turd! good marketing

unborn epoch
#

its to increased uptime

rose eagle
#

i mean why support older tech and make newer people suffer

unborn epoch
#

makes sense

rose eagle
#

tbh, it's hard to code for older tech and new

#

id always code to sacrifice the old shit first

#

i cant guarantee you new driver updates to make 20xx better is 110% intentionally directed at making previous shit

#

i do game development and phasing out older hardware is hard to work around due to shaders etc

unborn epoch
#

for fun?

rose eagle
#

luckily theres less and less changes year to year lately

#

its for profit share but not just for fun

#

super basic 2d stuff

#

unless we make a ton of money and can afford to pay someone, lol

unborn epoch
#

There's a bit of hope somewhere I end up making games in the future.

rose eagle
unborn epoch
#

Pay for the God damned artist some money.

#

yikes

rose eagle
#

100% profit sharing gets you only so far πŸ˜‰

unborn epoch
#

i'd say it doesn't look bat at all

rose eagle
#

we're very fortunate to have that for a %

unborn epoch
#

can't speak for everything else though

#

can't find a torrent

rose eagle
#

haha

unborn epoch
prime raptor
#

damn

#

Those animations

#

5/7

rose eagle
#

its fine i dont get the profits anymore anyway

#

it dried up

unborn epoch
#

How did you guys make this ifI may ask

prime raptor
#

with computers

unborn epoch
#

any existing engines like unity?

rose eagle
#

this FPS readout of battlefront 2 looks pretty stable eh?

#

im curious what ye good ole 1080Ti looks like

unborn epoch
#

i don't own bf2 ;c

rose eagle
#

you guys both jump around 40fps jumps with 1080Ti in Frostbite engine games?

unborn epoch
#

in bf1 i do on ultra settings ya

rose eagle
#

all you need is FRAPS, FRAFS and a couple clicks and run game for 30s πŸ˜„

unborn epoch
#

ill do this tomorrow hen i play more bf1

#

what settings do you want me to play

rose eagle
#

you noticed you jump around 120 to 80?

unborn epoch
#

ya

rose eagle
#

yea fair enough

#

what cpu?

unborn epoch
#

7700k

rose eagle
#

ok so its most likely not my cpu

#

im just trying to determine if FPS jumping around so wildly is possibly CPU

#

ive got an old 3770k but 1440p doesnt require nearly as much CPU

unborn epoch
#

are you hitting gpu memory limit?

rose eagle
#

but... once my 2070 arrives will be getting a lot more frames to process

#

really close yea

#

we'll see hopefully soon

unborn epoch
#

maybe it's dropping due to last 500mb

#

since the last 500mb are about as fast as a 1.44mb floppy disk
