We wont be seeing 10nm from intel for atleast a year and a bit

Whereas we're getting 7nm from AMD real soon

Intel is pulling an IBM on us

[steep gust]

Intel is also trying to use an old production method for 10nm

AMD is going to use TSMC FinFet for production

Intel is trying to avoid EUV IIRC which is causing lots of issues

[narrow fable]

The EU is screwing us over with this article 13 bs

Hey guys ive got a question about teambalancing

im in my third match in a row where half of my team left after being steamrolled

i googled and found out bf1 had a patch where they introduced autobalancing, why didnt they implement that from the get-go in bfv?

[narrow fable]

@mystic latch #battlefield-legacy-titles

This is the tech area

[mystic latch]

oh shit sorry LUL

Where we post pics of our mad battlestations

No worries m8

[unkempt tapir]

Platoon emblems won’t save. I am using mobile and am suspecting there is a problem with the save feature for emblems.

[tame path]

trying to view assignments in game makes you unable to do anything with a frozen screen

why the hell cant i find where to see per core CPU OSD in Afterburner

thought there was a Showin OSD option

@split storm

What's the cpu?

[split storm]

I7 4770

[narrow fable]

Because it probably can be xd

If you change the clock speed multiplier

[split storm]

It's supposed to run at 3.4 gHz

But it's running at 3.8 ghz

[narrow fable]

I think that cpu can be overclocked

[split storm]

Thing is, I don't even know how I do it

[narrow fable]

That's its turbo speed

That's normal

[split storm]

Oh thank god

I thought my CPU was haunted

[narrow fable]

That doesn't happen

Normally

[split storm]

[mystic drum]

Mine is a i5 2500k

[split storm]

Oooh

I had problems running BF5 even with my i7

I can't imagine a 2nd generation i5

[mystic drum]

It can be rough

I've certainly died to fps drops

It's literally just my CPU that is the problem

[narrow fable]

I find it quite hard to run Minecraft on my setup qwq

I wish I could play bf5

[mystic drum]

I have 32GB RAM and a GTX 1070

[narrow fable]

I only have 16gb qwq

And a 1080ti

[flint locust]

anything above 16 gb is useless for gaming

[narrow fable]

^

[flint locust]

played 2 games at once, only used 14gb

R6 and BF1

[narrow fable]

Actually

City skylines needs a shit tonne

I keep maxing out

Need to get more ram

[split storm]

I have an RX480, 16gb of ram and an i7 previously mentioned

[narrow fable]

I'd have said that cpu was going to bottleneck you

But it seems fine

[mystic drum]

Good thing I also edit video and images

I max out that 32GB RAM

[rose eagle]

i was just having the best round literally ever and my kid fucking shoved the remote in my face because he pushed his ipad to the TV at insane volumes yelling turn it down and made me spill my beer all over my K70 lux and now it does nothing but endlessly type 1 and it overloaded BFV and caused it to force quit while i was trying to do kill 10 in 1 life assignment

needless to say lots of shit was thrown and many curse words were said

[half comet]

You were the one who made him.

[rose eagle]

yea my neglect was my own undoing clearly

i was like 29-5 going for a kill 10 in 1 life assignment

no idea where i was, just owning everyone in the face so didnt care

jesus this membrane kb is going to end me

[untold geode]

i'm trying resahd eon bf4

[analog linden]

reinstalling win10 for the 10th time

[lofty light]

Time to get a splash proof keyboard?

[red ingot]

RIP u majicpanda

[rose eagle]

its working for now after putting it upside down on a fan but the damage was done

killed my mojo for gaming tonight

even poured out most of the rest of the beer that was left

only 9 hrs to decide to get that $110 asrock or not

i think windows lies, in game it says my CPU isnt 100% just PEGGED 24/7

with afterburner installed

[rose eagle]

i have to buy it before i go to bed, sale ends in 7 hrs

but now im conflicted because afterburner says im not poundin all my CPU.. but my GPU aint 100% either unless i crank it to 130% res scale at 1440p

[lofty light]

You got future frame rendering on?

[rose eagle]

yea

3

windows shows pegged 100% all cores always while playing

but afterburner doesnt, soooooo wtf

fk em

game plays smooth, i dont need more frames

if anything being able to turn the game up to 130% res scale makes it easier to see everything

to use that last 30% gpu up at 100fps instead of buying a new rig and perhaps getting more fps but at 1440p

done, exec decision, 3770k master race

[obtuse verge]

Does anyone use a R9 390 here to play BF5?

[last crow]

without RAYTRACING?

[last copper]

Sorry, I prefer games that run over 60fps

[elfin jungle]

R9 is a good card

[obtuse verge]

Ye it is on par with the GTX970

Dont understand the responses I get here

I was just wondering if anyone with the R9 390 got the game working with DX12

[last crow]

i love my 970

got it overclocked to 1506 upwards of 1540

base clock 11XX i think

wrote my own gpu bios and brought up the clock and voltage

havent hardcoded the overclock yet, since the base is like 1400

[prime jasper]

does anyone know if a 160hz monitor supports gtx960 video card (it has display ports) ?

[green nebula]

As long as both has the same connector, i do not see why it won't work.

[dark idol]

Hi Guys, i randomly have 1 time each match that my fps drops to 10-20 and after that it goes fine the whole match. This is the only game i have it in. I've got a 8700k, 16gb @ 3200mhz and a 1080ti

[ripe tangle]

oh hey look

@dark idol

you have the same specs as I do and you drop to 10-20 fps too

[dark idol]

Yea 1 time a match

For like 5 seconds

[ripe tangle]

real talk how much fps you get on max ?

[dark idol]

I play on 1440p tho

But i play on tryhard mode 1440p on low and mesh on ultra

[ripe tangle]

you in game ? You able to tell me what fps you get on the preset ultra setting ?

I actually want to know if it has something to do with either the cpu or gpu that is shitting the bed for me

I can only get 40 fps maybe on ultra on a factory reset clean bios pc

[dark idol]

Im at work

Ill try tonight

Remind me

[ripe tangle]

im at work too lmao.

The game shits the bed for me and I have liquid cooling too I can only get 40fps on ultra

[elfin jungle]

Liquid cooling doesnt give you more fps haha

[green nebula]

It may help when your cpu is throttling itself because of high temps

[slate ivy]

8700k or 9700k for 60 pounds more?

[green nebula]

The question you need to ask is, what are you going to do with it

Because if its pure gaming only, i'd say an 8th gen i5

if you're going to dabble in streaming and content creation, the 8700k or 9700k
Not sure about exact differences between them, but if you can find a reason to justify the 9700k for you, its your choice.

Just make sure you do have quite effective cooling

[dull olive]

Anyone got a i7-7700k with z270 motherboard, 16gb RAM, and a 1080 graphics card? Or at the very least the same CPU. I'm seeing my CPU using 95-100% at all times while ingame (OC'ed to 5GHz, have tried downclocking a bit and setting it to stock/turbo with same results). I was wondering if anyone had similar results.

[prime jasper]

Whats your cpu usage when idling in windows

[dull olive]

0-10%

[prime jasper]

Also turn off discord when playing

Helped some other guy

[dark idol]

@ripe tangle i have 90-120 on ultra 1440p. Depends on the map. Devestation is the map with the lowest fps

[ripe tangle]

yikes

im getting fucked somehow lol

[dark idol]

Lol

Got it clocked too on 5ghz

[ripe tangle]

same

[dull olive]

@prime jasper Havent tried turning off discord, but I have no game overlays or anything running from it. But discord doesnt use much CPU at all though.

[prime jasper]

Just give it a try

[ripe tangle]

i havent tried turning off discord yet

[prime jasper]

Lots of ppl have problems with discord

And cpu usage

[dull olive]

I'll give it a go, see how it goes. Thanks for the suggestion.

[prime jasper]

And if the game is running fine otherwise

[dark idol]

Someone here with how to connect a midi keyboard to your pc

[prime jasper]

High usage isnt a big deal

[dark idol]

I have a behringer umc22 already

[prime jasper]

As long as it runs wll

e

[dull olive]

It's running decently, as far as I can tell. But streaming it will be difficult on that usage.

I was mainly looking for comparisons to see if its on my end or the CPU in general

[prime jasper]

My i7 4770 3.8 ghz is at around 80% usage while playing

[dull olive]

Seriously.

[prime jasper]

Yea

Im using win7 tho

Less cancerous than win10

0% usage with firefox and discord open

[dull olive]

Hmm I'm using Win10. The two things I havent tried yet (of my ideas) is reinstalling windows, and setting the graphics down ingame and see if it affects

[dreamy tinsel]

@acoustic raft Are you running on Windows 10?

[acoustic raft]

Windows 7

How do i send a picture?

[dreamy tinsel]

If you go to Desktop and right click on it. Is there an option that says "Display settings"?

[acoustic raft]

Nothing

[dreamy tinsel]

personalize?

[acoustic raft]

Yes

Okay then?

[dreamy tinsel]

I dont remember windows 7

hold on

okay

Running a virtual now

click the windows button and open control panel

Then click on display

[acoustic raft]

Okay

And then? Adjust reso?

[dreamy tinsel]

What resolution does it say you've got?

[acoustic raft]

1920 is in my recom

But its to large

Before this happen the recommendation is 1366x768

[dreamy tinsel]

hmm

1920 is recommended but too large

You dont have an old square monitor do you? 😄
Just making sure haha

[acoustic raft]

Nope

Its samsung

[dreamy tinsel]

Can you tell me the model of your screen?

the model number

[acoustic raft]

But i dont know the serie

[dreamy tinsel]

Dont have the sticker on it anymore?

[acoustic raft]

I take to trash

I dont really remember

[dreamy tinsel]

okay

Do you only have one screen connected?

[acoustic raft]

Yes

[dreamy tinsel]

Sounds really odd honestly haha, is it a new problem?

[acoustic raft]

The model is s19d300hy

Yeap

[dreamy tinsel]

Oooh

[acoustic raft]

Maybr because i updated the gpu driver?

[dreamy tinsel]

Yeah that monitor is limited to 1,366 x 768

You will have to change both in-game and windows settings to that

[acoustic raft]

Well its make the icon and etc litle blurry

[dreamy tinsel]

The tech specs on the screen say that it is the limit 😛

That is why if you put it higher you "lose" some of the screen

it has 1366 pixels on each of the 768 rows, so if you tell it to display 1920 on 1080 rows on that scaled up it will only be able to show part of it.

[acoustic raft]

But the pop up from the monitor says not optimum mode is really anonying

Is there any way to change the resolution

[dreamy tinsel]

You would need a new monitor to properly display 1920x1080

it is only made to show 1,366 x 768 or lower

[acoustic raft]

Hmm so the solution is buy new monitor hmm okaay

Thanks alot btw

[slate ivy]

got the 9700k now, my poor wallet, lets hope it helps with performance, either my 7700ks broken or something but now i should get 144fps, i cant wait,

[dreamy tinsel]

np

[willow igloo]

hey guys i have 1080 and inteil 7700k and 16gb ddr4 ram and 2 tb hard drive and bfv keeps on crashing does anyone y this would be

[dreamy tinsel]

Had issues in other games?

Does it crash when something specific happens?

[willow igloo]

yh ive had issues with ww3 and bf1 and no just randomaly but it does seem to stutter when theres a lot going on the screen as in lots of players on my team infront of me

[dreamy tinsel]

Is your set up new?

[willow igloo]

well i guess ive had it a few years

[dreamy tinsel]

Ahh yeah okay, not "new" then 😛
Was thinking it could be your RAM that weren't properly plugged in

Do you have anything else running on your computer while you have the game open?

[willow igloo]

so since bf1s 2nd year

so 2017

ill look at the ram now though

[dreamy tinsel]

Just open the task manager - performance, you have all 16 there yeah?

[dull olive]

@slate ivy Whats your issue with 7700k? I have that one as well, not doing too well with it.

[slate ivy]

always on 100% in battlefield and barely gets over 80fps

[dull olive]

What gpu?

[slate ivy]

1080

[dull olive]

Hmm. I'm running ultra, same specs, get 100-130 fps

[slate ivy]

and when i got certain websites open, it crashes my entire pc cause its overloaded

[dull olive]

But the usage is 95-100% as well, super frustrating.

[dreamy tinsel]

Oooh, look at that @willow igloo
Others have issues with 7700K too

[slate ivy]

thats why i treated myself with a 9700k/2080TI

cant wait

[dreamy tinsel]

I got myself the i7 8086K not long ago

5GHz kappa

[dull olive]

I'd personally not go for the 9700k, i like my hyperthreading. 8700k is my next CPU come december.

[split storm]

Lul

[dull olive]

Why the 2080ti tho? 1080 should be more than enough. Unless 1440p +

[split storm]

When a DICE dev has a problem with their CPU

[dreamy tinsel]

They are human too ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[slate ivy]

I am not a DICE Dev, but anyways, ive been having issues with this CPU for some time now

[split storm]

Then do you have the tags?

[willow igloo]

k ive just put the ram in and out and see what happends now

[dull olive]

@split storm It says EA/DIce not ea/dice dev..

[dreamy tinsel]

Others have issues with the 7700K Cpu @willow igloo

[split storm]

So he's from EA?

Even worse

[dull olive]

Hmm...

@slate ivy Would you mind if I added you on discord? Cant send you a pm.

Not ea/dice related obv.

[dreamy tinsel]

@willow igloo Let me know what happens with a tag

[prime jasper]

i have issues with mine to , have 7700k and 1080

the new patch fucked all the game up

fps drop like 20-30

cant even run it on low lol >.<

[split storm]

Yeah rather than fixing their shit, they just buy new stuff because they can

[prime jasper]

hope they fix the game soon

[dull olive]

I have no issues (notable ones anyways) with my setup. I'm just not really a fan of running at 100% all the friggin time, and not being able to run my my stream or other things in the background.

[prime jasper]

i red about people who has 2080ti and better cpu have the same issue, so plz dice do your job right next time 😃

[willow igloo]

thx for telling about the cpus btw

[dreamy tinsel]

What settings do you guys run the game on when experiencing this?

[prime jasper]

like, its take 16 years to make a new ww2 game and and extra month to and the games have buggs you just lol at because its not should be like this much buggs if you have 16 years since 1942 hahaha

@dreamy tinsel either low or ultra not so much diffrence.

[slate ivy]

Ultra 144hz

[dull olive]

I run on a mix between ultra and high, also 144hz

[dreamy tinsel]

You have the issue either way?

[prime jasper]

when the game came first days, i have around min 100 fps on ultra

[dreamy tinsel]

I have a theory that Ultra might run better than low for you

seeing as on low performance settings the CPU will want to do the work

Might just be broken tho lol, and you will have to wait for a patch

[dull olive]

If you get a notable difference in frames/cpu usage, is there any chance you could let me know if you dont forget? @slate ivy

[slate ivy]

yup, ill set myself a reminder

[prime jasper]

yeah just wait for the patch so unserious by dice to drop a game like this

drop it when its more ready then, they maybe need 16 more years to fix it? hahahaha

[dreamy tinsel]

No game can prevent it unless they delay the game another 6 months to test on all hardware and remove bugs with help from a closed "beta"

[dull olive]

But I am curious as to where the "137 page" patch note is.

I was really hoping for better optimization. Since my friends 7600k runs better than my 7700k (which is higher OC as well).

[dreamy tinsel]

It will be fixed

[dull olive]

I saw someone mention that closing discord could help with CPU usage for some reason. Don't think it makes a difference though unless you run with overlays

[dreamy tinsel]

Well... can never be 100%. But 99% sure it will be soon 😄

Yeah and always close Netflix

damn Netflix man

Their new video player lags ppl out

[dull olive]

Dont have netflix.

[rigid knoll]

Weirdly enough Netflix' audio & video go out of sync for me sometimes (not related to BFs though)

[dreamy tinsel]

Yeah, Netflix has messed up somehow. Still not fixed it as far as I know

[prime jasper]

so i am on PS4 stuck in a loading screen between 2 games. on the top right corner of the screen are 2 loading symbols.

should i just close the app and restart the game ?

[vapid pebble]

I run a 7700k with 1080ti, and havent had any issues. I had a 7600k prior, and in BF1 it would have alot more stuttering. I havent had any crashes in the game yet.

[red ingot]

bf just hates cpus

😦

[vapid pebble]

That about sums it up. BF games, especially new ones are so CPU heavy.

[rose eagle]

Resource monitor is a lie

[languid acorn]

Is a 60hz monitor gonna give me problems?

with a 2070

[rose eagle]

Quit trolling

[languid acorn]

Who me?

[rose eagle]

Ofc it would ;p

[languid acorn]

Welp... I'll just turn on rtx so my fps tanks

[rose eagle]

Who buys a 2070 to be restrained to 60fps!

That's the spirit

4k maybe

[languid acorn]

Improvise. Adapt. Overcome

[rose eagle]

Turn up to 200% res scale

The game will look freaking amazing

[languid acorn]

Alrighty. Thanks for the advice my friend!

[vapid pebble]

Thats some top notch problem solving right there guys. Well done.

[languid acorn]

Hahaha thanks

[red ingot]

Black Friday

Buy 144hz

[languid acorn]

I've got no money now

[red ingot]

:(

[pastel lily]

@slate ivy Can you share us your specs please ^.^

[dreamy tinsel]

He did

Babyhuehnchen: thats why i treated myself with a 9700k/2080TI :feelsneatman:

[red ingot]

[languid acorn]

ooof

One day I'll be able to get the latest and greatest

[red ingot]

One day

I'm waiting for 10nm

[languid acorn]

I thought they said 7nm

[wintry sedge]

BFV consistently crashing my pc. anyone able to help troubleshoot?

[pastel lily]

his ram and mobo

[dreamy tinsel]

Yagman I am troubled

[red ingot]

Y

[dreamy tinsel]

With what you said you were going to do

How are you chatting rn

i7-8700K

MSI GTX 1080

16gb Corsair Vengeance RAM

500gb SSD Crucial

2TB HDD WD Blue

Asus z370-e

[rose eagle]

i let that $110 ASROck mobo deal expire overnight and ressited upgrading my 3770k

[dreamy tinsel]

Dont tell me you are "sitting" rn

[red ingot]

Um

[rose eagle]

because windows shows 100% CPU but Afterburner does not, who the fk you supposed to believe?

[red ingot]

I can neither confirm nor deny

[dreamy tinsel]

lmao

[languid acorn]

Does he have hemorrhoids

[red ingot]

Not yet

I will after being on this discord tho

[ripe tangle]

@half comet

update for you since i forgot, my game went into a repairing files state by itself and my fps increased and i can go upwards of 110 fps on ultra however they are consistant drops to 50-60 from 100+

[red ingot]

:(

[rose eagle]

https://snag.gy/ueXQYh.jpg

why would i upgrade my system with these stats

[ripe tangle]

@red ingot idk man its hella wedird

[red ingot]

because it can always be better majic

[ripe tangle]

like i got home opened origin and it automatically was repairing the game

[red ingot]

gotta circle jerk those benchmarks

[ripe tangle]

by i have so many fps drops

[red ingot]

thats so weird

what cpu are u on again

[ripe tangle]

8700k i7

[red ingot]

wtf

[ripe tangle]

ik

[red ingot]

and ur on a 1080ti right

[ripe tangle]

yes

[red ingot]

sorry i have a bad memory

yeah wtf

well hopefully they patch

:/

[ripe tangle]

im gonna try some other things i tried console commands and they did nothing

[red ingot]

i mean i get some fps drops too with a 1080ti and 4770k

but your CPU is much better

and it's not super bad

my fps drops

[ripe tangle]

it was hitting 100% on aerodrome

with 70% GPU usage

[red ingot]

yeah my cpu is always 100% rip

and gpu at like 50-60%

[ripe tangle]

no game should do that

[rose eagle]

@red ingot 100% according to what?

[ripe tangle]

unless its crysis 4

like wtf

[rose eagle]

use afterburner plz

[ripe tangle]

why does that matter

windows should be acurate enough

im using 6% idle while watching a youtube video and downloading a game

seems accurate to me

[rose eagle]

its not, if afterburner shows 70-90% but windows shows 100% ALL the time never wavering

who the fk you supposed to believe?

[ripe tangle]

again

im 6% idle

100% in game

he probs has the same issue

[rose eagle]

on an 8700k?

[ripe tangle]

yes

[red ingot]

sorry according to windows @rose eagle

[ripe tangle]

my gpu usage is literally 2%

[red ingot]

i was in #battlefield-legacy-titles

[rose eagle]

try afterburner plz

everyone

fk windows

[red ingot]

but that means i have to go download it

:/

[ripe tangle]

lol its not gonna make a difference lmao

[red ingot]

im lazy

[rose eagle]

yea but i bet we dont need an upgrade

[red ingot]

😄

o fuck that im not upgrading till 10nm

[ripe tangle]

if there is a 90% increase for me on idle to in game

[rose eagle]

im on a 3770k trying to make a $800 decision here

[ripe tangle]

its accurate

[rose eagle]

fuck resource monitor making that decision for me

[red ingot]

okay majic ill dl just for u

[rose eagle]

nah

[red ingot]

cause ily

[rose eagle]

i dont believe your 8700k is 100%

[red ingot]

although im not hopping on bfv for like 1h

[rose eagle]

at all

[red ingot]

so ill let u know then

[rose eagle]

your ahead render limit is default on and set to 3?

[red ingot]

for me yes

[ripe tangle]

@rose eagle

to compare for me

13% GPU usage and 23% in rainbow six on max

with 150-200 fps

[rose eagle]

well yea i mean BFV is destroyer of computers for sure

[ripe tangle]

its just the game

watch give it a month

patch is out

200 fps on max

guaranteed

happened on bf4, bf1 and hardline

[red ingot]

yah

i really really really really hope they have a launch day patch

but im doubting it since no news

😦

they had a patch on the 14th for digital deluxe.. idk why no patch for standard

[rose eagle]

https://snag.gy/kHqMjP.jpg

[vapid pebble]

I saw they are doing smg tweaking and a few other things. No mention on when.

[red ingot]

who uses snaggy

over gyazo

[ripe tangle]

i just want to know a date for an optimization patch

[vapid pebble]

The last patch made huge difference for me as I can run dx12 again without terrible stutters or frame drops now.

[red ingot]

huh

i mean i haven't tried dx12 cause afaik it runs like garbage and is useless unless u want RTX

[rose eagle]

dx12 disconnects me from the game...

https://snag.gy/NsHAwu.jpg <- game runs solid on a 3770k 2070 1440p 125% res scale

[storm osprey]

why are you using 125% res scale?

[rose eagle]

im having a hard time pinning having to use 125% res scale on my CPU, otherwise my gpu runs at 70%

same fps as 100%

since my gpu is yawning

[storm osprey]

jesus christ, 500gb samsung evo is 73 bucks on amazon

[vapid pebble]

@red ingot Yeah, DX12 is usually a no no, but I switched after they fixed it in last patch and it runs very smooth and runs better than dx11 frames wise for me.

[languid acorn]

Why is an ips monitor so good?

[vapid pebble]

@storm osprey I bought one like 5 months ago for 110 and thought that was a solid deal at the time. RIP

[storm osprey]

its good for certain things

mostly color reproduction

but for gaming, its not great, more input lag

[languid acorn]

Hmm. Okay. Thanks for the answer

[red ingot]

meh

its like 4ms vs 1ms input lag

not even discernable

[storm osprey]

not that its BAD for gaming, but if you want the "best" you get tn

which tn as bad color reproduction

[red ingot]

but isn't 144fps still ilke 10ms?

[storm osprey]

and bad viewing angles

ips has good viewing angles

those are the main differences

[red ingot]

ips look ssexy

tn not so much

😦

and fuck i bought my 250gb ssd for like $150 a few years back rip

[storm osprey]

calibrated tn are good, but not as good as ips, personally idc

id pref have lowest input lag

[red ingot]

u cant tell unless you're looking at really dark or bright

[languid acorn]

Alright

[rose eagle]

yag get home plz

[red ingot]

im home majic

im uh

[rose eagle]

real curious what a FRAPS recording of you playing would look like

[red ingot]

taking a shit

[rose eagle]

haha

[red ingot]

for lack of a better excuse

thats the truth m8

[rose eagle]

you have the exact same cpu almost but a 1080Ti?

[storm osprey]

yea i almost jumped on that same ssd when it was 100 bucks

[red ingot]

yah

i just want my 970 evo

[rose eagle]

you run mesh etc high but everything else low/off?

[storm osprey]

but read they are supposed to keep dropping in prices into next year

[red ingot]

although gonna wait till next year when I have more $$$ spending all mine on my gpu/monitor upgrade

i run everything med

[languid acorn]

I have a 500gb 860 that I got for 70 bucks

[red ingot]

although post procesing aa low

[rose eagle]

there is no GPU upgrade from 1080Ti x_x

[red ingot]

and all the bs (film grain etc) off

[storm osprey]

thats a good price

[red ingot]

well i upgraded 780ti to 1080ti

[storm osprey]

im waiting for 50 bucks for 500gb

[red ingot]

that was like $1k

[vapid pebble]

If they keep dropping prices of SSDS. might actually grab one for my ps4 also.

[rose eagle]

1080Ti is the best video card out imo

[red ingot]

yeah

that's why i got one

😄

then also droppin some $$ on my monitor on black firday

[rose eagle]

Dell?

[red ingot]

so waiting till next year for more upgrades

oh i also got my new mouse and mousepad

no asus

[rose eagle]

2716dg!

cmon mang

[red ingot]

cause im a shitty asus fanboy

[languid acorn]

I still don't have a mousepad

[rose eagle]

dont blow money on asus

[red ingot]

rip

[vapid pebble]

Monitor is the one thing Im looking for on black friday. Hopefully a good deal pops up

[red ingot]

but both my monitors are asus rn

[rose eagle]

$350 black friday most likely for 27

[red ingot]

and they're so nice

😦

[rose eagle]

what you gonna blow on an asus? 27"?

[red ingot]

plus u get the sexy rog logo

[storm osprey]

@vapid pebble the dell majic and i have probably will

[red ingot]

and yah

[rose eagle]

sigh

its so sexy and so cheap

[red ingot]

asus 27" g sync 1440p ips

ill fap all over it

break no nut november

[rose eagle]

thats why i go with the beard

[vapid pebble]

@storm osprey Yeah, I have the 27 inch and 24 inch on my radar. Just watching for prices to move.

[red ingot]

fap all over beard?

🤔

[storm osprey]

good good, i have the 27", friend has the 24"

[red ingot]

asus?

[storm osprey]

dell

[red ingot]

[storm osprey]

im not paying almost double for a little better performance

[red ingot]

lol

[vapid pebble]

Im leaning towards 24 given desk space available to me. My current 24 fits perfectly, a 27 will force me to move everything around.

[red ingot]

well i guess ill see on friday

[storm osprey]

the 24" has basically no visible pixels

its insane

[red ingot]

damn

i have 24" rn

although I kinda want a 27

everyone tells me the 27 is sexy af

apparently the 3" difference is huge

[dark idol]

@ripe tangle you on?

[storm osprey]

24" at 1080p is 92 PPI, at 1440p its at 122 PPI

[red ingot]

o.O

wat about 27

[storm osprey]

thats a little under 50% more pixels in the same space

[red ingot]

isn't that like ~30% more pixels

unless i can't math

[storm osprey]

idk, i just know its not 50% but under, but not by much

[red ingot]

u got 27" stats?

curious

[storm osprey]

https://www.sven.de/dpi/

[languid acorn]

eww my monitor is tn

[red ingot]

ty

[rose eagle]

i shrunk my BF window down to a 24" window and i cant fking play it

i have to get my face 6in forward

[red ingot]

so still a solid upgrade from my 24" 1080p

in terms of PPI

[rose eagle]

you only look at like 70% of your screen tunnel vision but that mid section blown up bigger is better imo

[storm osprey]

yea ppi for 27" at 1440p is like 110

[red ingot]

109

[storm osprey]

lol

[red ingot]

at a 27"

[ripe tangle]

@dark idol

yah

sup

[red ingot]

u recommend a 27"

for 1440p

[storm osprey]

you can still see pixels at 27" 1440p

but its very very minor

[rose eagle]

what are the go to 300 series boards right now?

[red ingot]

well idc if i can see pixels

[storm osprey]

light AA fixes it

[red ingot]

im fine with my 1080p rn

[mint pendant]

Hi, I have not been able to play Battlefield V for the last few days because of some annoying issue. Pretty much, whenever I click play on origin the game does the whole little syncing to cloud thing and then Origin minimises and reopens, the game doesn't even launch. All my other games work just fine. Anyone know what's causing it?

[red ingot]

but like ppl tell me 27" is god send + 1440p looks sexy

[storm osprey]

i personally think 27" 1440p is perfect

[red ingot]

ok

yah i want some anecdotal opinions here

:p

[rose eagle]

1440p 27" with TAA user config'd off ;P

i can see clearly now the TAA is gone, i can see all soldiers in my wake

[red ingot]

yay

[storm osprey]

oh

[red ingot]

and there's like software u can use right

to calibrate ur monitor properly or something

[storm osprey]

the 24" is 165 hz, while the 27" is 144hz

[red ingot]

i've never actually done that but i heard it helps

[storm osprey]

if that matters

[red ingot]

naw

144 - 165 same dif

[rose eagle]

thats like ~2ms response time if you can even get 164fps

[red ingot]

yea

164fps at 1440p

gl

[rose eagle]

lawls

3000Ti!

[storm osprey]

@red ingot http://www.tftcentral.co.uk/reviews/dell_s2716dg.htm use this site for calibration

[red ingot]

plus apparently u can always oc ur monitor or somethin

[languid acorn]

Why can you overclock a monitor? Like what the hell

[red ingot]

ty

[storm osprey]

i added digital vibrance to add some contrast

[rose eagle]

i dropped gamma .75 in nvidia and raised vib to 65%

[storm osprey]

i follow their calibration exactly, and then add 71% digital vibrance in nvidia control panel

[rose eagle]

my in game brightness claims i need 80%

to see the V

[languid acorn]

giggity

[storm osprey]

i played games with friend with same monitor but not calibrated, i could see things clearly he said he couldnt see at all

[red ingot]

interesting

[storm osprey]

i died, was spectating him, he was shooting way off and i asked if he couldnt see him

he said he couldnt

and to me it was obvious where they were

[rose eagle]

there reason to buy 3200 ram vs 3000?

[storm osprey]

unless you have amd. no

even then, i doubt 200mhz would make a difference

[red ingot]

huh

and why would it make a dif on amd?

curious

i guess i should calibrate my monitor then lol

[languid acorn]

AMD prefers faster ram for some reason

[red ingot]

interesting

[rose eagle]

everyone just gets cas 16?

i remember back in the day 20 yrs ago when tweaking all these timings was important

[storm osprey]

yea AMD runs better with faster ram, intel doesnt really care

and you get the lowest timing you can

[rose eagle]

black friday "deal" on 8700k $340.. lol

[storm osprey]

but dont make that be the difference

[rose eagle]

WEWWWW omg $20!!

HGOGOGO

[tame path]

why do i join servers that say 45 ping for me, but all i get is orange and yellow boxes in the corner

[rose eagle]

i knew CPU discounts would be ass..

[languid acorn]

I only have 1 case fan. Will everything spontaneously combust?

[red ingot]

cpu discounts are always garbage

and yes get more fans

[languid acorn]

sigh

[storm osprey]

yea the least you want is 2 fans

1 intake 1 exhaust

[languid acorn]

Alrighty. Anyone recommend some cheap, but good fans? I'd prefer some that don't sound like a jet engine

[rose eagle]

PWM?

do you want to control the speed when it's idle vs hot etc

[languid acorn]

sure

[rose eagle]

they costs moar

120mm or 140

[languid acorn]

I don't care

[rose eagle]

lol i mean you kinda have to know what your case takes..

[languid acorn]

I have one 120m already. So I guess more 120mms

[storm osprey]

if you can get pwm, get pwm, if you can get 140mm, get 140mm

[languid acorn]

Alright

[storm osprey]

case?

[languid acorn]

let me check. I don't remember

[rose eagle]

im going to echo Nyph's suggestion last month and say these Cougar fans are great

but i do like the sexy orange 😄

[storm osprey]

i love those fans, and the people i tell to get them love them too

thankfully they have plain black too

it sucks that such good fans dont sell well, thats why i think their price is low compared to others

[rose eagle]

just be real careful about the fluctuating prices

[languid acorn]

I have the eclipse p300 series

white

[rose eagle]

for some fkin reason they bounce between $15 and $25 daily

[storm osprey]

weird

[rose eagle]

https://camelcamelcamel.com/COUGAR-Vortex-CFV14HP-Dynamic-Bearing/product/B00IYJSCO0

up right now =/

[red ingot]

Just make sure u get rgb

[rose eagle]

x_x

[red ingot]

Rgb fans = more cooling

Put them on blue if u want it to run cool

[languid acorn]

Makes sense

[red ingot]

Red if you're feeling spicy and your house is cold

[rose eagle]

dem lights generate 1.21 gigawatts are you mad?!

[red ingot]

Functions as a good heater then

[rose eagle]

they take all the power from your motherboard away from your CPU

-40% perf

[red ingot]

Wat

1.21 gigawatts

[storm osprey]

Front 2x 2x
Top 1x 1x
Rear 1x (1 included)

[red ingot]

Those sound like some massive lights

[storm osprey]

says you can support 2 140mm

[red ingot]

Get 140 then

[storm osprey]

so if you want to throw that 120 from the front, to the back

[rose eagle]

my case supported 3x 120 or 2x 140, got 140s

[storm osprey]

you can only get 2 140mm and be happy

[red ingot]

Bigger is always better;)

[rose eagle]

in front

every damn time

[languid acorn]

Awesome

[red ingot]

Wait till black Friday imo

Unless early deal on now

[languid acorn]

I am

[red ingot]

Cause it's like 4 days away

Ok

[rose eagle]

supposedly newegg has started their black friday

i wonder if theres door busters not online tho

[languid acorn]

So I should have the two 140s on intake and the 120 on outake

[red ingot]

Yeah presales

I would

[storm osprey]

yea

[red ingot]

That's my opinion

[storm osprey]

thatd be perfect

[languid acorn]

Nice

[red ingot]

Newegg has presales but they're not as big as the actual black Friday sales

[rose eagle]

you want as much out as in if not a tad more dont you?

[red ingot]

Same with most other retailers

I thought u wanted more in

🤔

Idk

[rose eagle]

positive vs negative pressure

[languid acorn]

If you get more cold in it should cancel out the left over hot right?

[red ingot]

Too sciencey for me

This is why I didnt do well in physics

Teach me senpai

[storm osprey]

you want more in that out

positive pressure

keeps dust out

cools better

[rose eagle]

ahhh thats right, dust

[storm osprey]

but the difference is pretty minor

[rose eagle]

yea so i got two 140mm in, 1 exhaust 120mm, one top exhaust 120mm

[red ingot]

Oh okay I did have it right

[rose eagle]

which would be your setup right?

two 140mm in, 1 back 1 top 120mm

[storm osprey]

id just do 2 front 1 back

[red ingot]

No top?

[languid acorn]

My exhaust is on the side, but I can always move it

Case came like that

[red ingot]

No back exhaust?

Odd

[storm osprey]

the difference between 3-4 fans is like 1 degree

[red ingot]

Yeah

[languid acorn]

Depends on how big the fan is

[storm osprey]

noty really

[red ingot]

Difference between my fans on min speed and max is literally 1 degree

[storm osprey]

although that doest account for noise

[languid acorn]

If I have a massive industrial fan, it will

[viscid wigeon]

Is this a place for asking advice for FPS issues?

[storm osprey]

lol ok yea in that case yea

[languid acorn]

hahaha

[red ingot]

But what will make your pc cooler is rgb fans set to blue

[languid acorn]

I'll just move to western Canada and play outside

[rose eagle]

the only big thing is my PWM fan on the CPU cooler, like 20db vs 40 when it goes full lol

[red ingot]

And yes @viscid wigeon ask away

Yeah really

[languid acorn]

So how quiet is 40db?

[red ingot]

Biggest mistake I ever made was buying performance edition fans vs silent edition

[languid acorn]

Like mosquito or a hum?

[red ingot]

Next to no difference except for noise

[viscid wigeon]

Well my problem is that my fps in firefights, close to explosions etc are around 30-45 at max. I've got an GTX 1060 6GB, i5 6500 and 8GB ram. I've tried googling and such but havent really found a fix. Ive turned down my res, turned everything to low, put on future frame rendering or whatever but still no fix. I feel like i should get more FPS with my rig

[languid acorn]

Damn. Fans are so expensive

[red ingot]

Lots of people having fps issues rn sp not just u

[viscid wigeon]

Yeah it's just that ive heard people pretty much with my setup has double my fps

[red ingot]

Latest drivers? Done a repair install on the game? Turned off film grain/motion blur etc?

[viscid wigeon]

yes,yes,yes

[rose eagle]

yag when you launching V? 😄

[red ingot]

Soon

[rose eagle]

TM

[red ingot]

I need to get off this discord

[rose eagle]

and toilet

[viscid wigeon]

turned off pretty much everything needed, and i HAD to update my drivers to play the game in the first place. was a bit old

[red ingot]

I've been on the shitter for like an hour

[rose eagle]

ass goin numb

[red ingot]

Just chilling here

Literally I feel like I'm floating

I've been done for so long rn

[rose eagle]

who had the 8700k?

[red ingot]

Fuck I'm lazy I just dont wanna wipe my ass

[rose eagle]

i need cpu usage info now!

[red ingot]

#nowipenovember

[languid acorn]

ewwwww

[red ingot]

XD

[languid acorn]

Your ass is gonna be crusty

[red ingot]

Just for u

[languid acorn]

fuck

no

Ugh

[red ingot]

Lol

I feel like someone somewhere has that fetish

[languid acorn]

I'm sure

Oh yeah baby. Give me that crusty ass

[red ingot]

bends over

[languid acorn]

I'd rather have mentrophilia than that fetish

[red ingot]

Dafuq is that

[languid acorn]

Dare you to look it up

No balls. Do it

[unborn epoch]

Buttz

[red ingot]

How do you live with hate so deep,
It chokes you like clogged arteries,
And all you want is to look in the mirror,
And not see yourself as a living monster,
So can someone show me how to forgive,
Yourself for the most heinous of sins?
Because right now all I can do is die slowly,
Living in a body with a soul rotting so,

Please forgive me, please don't hate me,
Please erase this feeling that I can't see,
It's so much easier to fight something corporal,
That's why I've been up myself day after day.

The pills I swallow in the hopes I won't wake up,
From this nightmare that's swallowed me whole,
I live every day just waiting for retribution,
From the person I hurt, because I can't find resolution,
In no consequences for what I did, because of my demoness,
Who ate me up and spit me out when I was barely older than six,
And she was like a vampire infecting me with a disease,
Now I'm infected just like her, except maybe with more remorse,

Please forgive me, please don't hate me,
Please erase this feeling that I can't see,
It's so much easier to fight something corporal,
That's why I've been up myself day after day.

Did that arouse u

[green nebula]

[languid acorn]

Meh not really. DO better

@viscid wigeon

Scuse me

@rose eagle I finally flushed

I feel like a new man

Just gotta shower/shave now

[languid acorn]

I've never seen 60fps. Only false glimmers of hope and shattered dreams, smothered by 30fps

[red ingot]

:(

[languid acorn]

It's no shave november

[red ingot]

U mean no wipe November

And no nut November

No shave November is so 2017

Aaaand we're back!

[rose eagle]

he's still sad i dropped bombs on him last night for making me spill my beer on my kb

not sure what i said in here..

[red ingot]

tell him that for every 1 time he beats on the door, you'll give him 3 lashes with your belt

[rose eagle]

i got triggered

blacked out

[red ingot]

yeah that was intense

i felt for u

i would've thrown my child

[rose eagle]

its working today so... its alright

hung it upside down over a fan

[red ingot]

damn

[rigid knoll]

Let him have some of the beer next time

[rose eagle]

we got one of those 2ft wide fans

[languid acorn]

make him clean the entire floor with his own toothbrush

[red ingot]

i literally would've grabbed him thrown him out in the snow and locked the door

[rose eagle]

i only let him drink my whiskey

[languid acorn]

wha

[rose eagle]

beer is too many calories

[red ingot]

this is why i dont have kids rn

mebbe one day when im more patient

[rose eagle]

ill never calm down

anger flows through my veins but im trying to be better.. i dont want a heart attack

[red ingot]

lol

i feel u

[rose eagle]

stress > cholesterol for clogging your arteries

[red ingot]

lol

[rose eagle]

is actually true =/

[rigid knoll]

Really, what's the mechanism in that?

[rose eagle]

increased levels of cortisol released into your bloodstream

[rigid knoll]

Always thought stress = high blood pressure -> wears your arteries down, and eventually and you'll have a stroke

[rose eagle]

it can cause inflammation internally, increased plaque buildp

[rigid knoll]

I see. Ye, high stress [x], high cholesterol [x]

[rose eagle]

yea that too, heart disease, higher blood pressure, wear down, but also you internally release more bad shit TM

your body overproduces bad juju when you are constantly stressed

quit killin yourself

[red ingot]

okay i need to go shower

at some point

imma go now

its been like 3h

of chilling on here

i think i have an addiction

send help

[dreamy tinsel]

Remember what month it is

[red ingot]

no nut november

[rose eagle]

but yea they count on people not sending in rebates ;D

[red ingot]

fuck

[rigid knoll]

Exercise should lower the cortisol though. I think cortisol also makes you gain fat more easily. But yea, time for few matches

[languid acorn]

eww exercise

[red ingot]

ok imma shower

[rose eagle]

what if you get hog tied and wife forces you to?

[red ingot]

wait what
