oof
my M.2 NVMe SSD sits right next to my RX 580 on the motherboard
don't even have a heatsink on it
but it stays under 50C lol
nice ya that was before i got intake fans so all i had is 1 exaust
it got a little toast + my crap was old anyways
hope you had a blower style cooler on that gpu if you only had an exhaust fan lol
.... no
blower coolers work best in poorly ventilated cases
i made that pc at 16 when i didnt know shit about computers
luckily i baught a 600W power supply and a tower case so i got too keep both of those swapped everything else
I like my RX 580 because I undervolted it a lot and it runs all games stable
I took off -125mV
still runs at base clock

O-o
it stays around 65C full load
wow what thats impressive
before undervolt, it went to around 76C
how did that not lower ur clock
it doesn't boost anymore but it still hits the base clock
oh and thats why games are most stable
RX 580 is rated for 185W but the undervolt makes it under 150W lol
lmao that dude has a i5-7500 and a gtx 1080
"something is broken, cpu 60-70%, GPU 70% and 50ish FPS, it was working fine like 2 days ago (70+ FPS) :("|
"indeed, something with the latest patch screwed the performance big time, I was running max fidelity 2 days ago, now I can't even make stable 60 fps with medium settings...."
bottleneck
60-70% cpu usage
for the other guy
i had the same issue everything was fine before the patch
people had performance on par with BF1 before patch lol
there was an update during early beta and all the sudden bam my fps tanking
I get 70-75 fps on ultra with my RX 580
with FFR on right?
some dips under 60 whenever something is happening
yeah
although FFR didn't change a lot
ya i get 100-120 but on some fucken maps it dips to 80 70 60
I bet i could get 144 fps on low settings
try it cause like i said lowering my settings game me 10 fps
gpu usage 30% cpu usage 60
wdf
screw this man i when into my computer triple checked everything made sure there was absolutely 0 bottleneck
Battlefield games have always been well optimized for AMD cards, even though BFV is an Nvidia game
kind of strange tbh
i used userbench my pc is performing in the 99th percentile all parts working above expectations
ive been holding off on reinstalling the game cause i dont wanna lose all the key bindings and settings i set
but i think i might have to try it
do a file integrity check
userbenchmark is shit
Legit just an RNG software tbh
If you don't want to lose settings back up the config
16-core Threadripper 1950X is 45% off at MicroCenter lol
am i the only one who has a smoothie game without any bug !!
I want to buy 9900k, 16gb 3600, but the 9900k is not available at any stores :/
Fun fact
RAM over 3000mhz CL16 has very little scaling in games
Beyond CL14 3200mhz you have literally no reason to spend money
Unless you benchmark
Who doesn't benchmark
"spend money" like 20-40euros more, its like less than half on hour work

im a senior consult in ux/ui who can also do the coding part, working on a 3d construction design software
no
sorry, I will not :(
basically i'm billing the customer for 100e/hour
for the past 4 years so far, maybe its time to rise the price
Uh yeah
RAM speeds won't cause a 20-30 minute drop in compile time
Also you should be looking at something like a 2950x then
yeah, considering amd build but still I somehow prefer more intel

What daddy
6c and 8c were impossible on the current LGA155x socket
Intel claimed a lot of shit as to why they kept 4c 8t flagship CPUs for years
Then Rzyen shows up
Look guys Kabylake can handle 6 cores
and then 8 cores
well, what do you expect, do they want to say "yeah we could push more from this but we wont because we want to profit first before pushing more"
Yes
its all about making money brah
You can make money and still have competitive products
See Maxwell -> Pascal for Nvidia
Businesses 101
unless there is competition its all how the sole provider handles the availability
And Eypc 2 is going to trash Intel server market share
eh
Ready to roll out
Remember the whole 5.0ghz 28c?
I hope the lower nm tech will provide more competition
I do
because more competition is better for consumers
Its not competition
A fucking water chiller is beyond normal uses
*IIRC it was chilled water could have be phase change
it is better for consumers, because providers have the drive to do better
It was an advertisement
That CPU was drawing thousands of watts
If you think Intel overclocking a $10,000 CPU is helping consumers then 
Since it was just an unlocked 8180
Yeah the 2990WX was an overhyped product, but it changed the market
yes those things need to happen to push development forward
Remember kids
if you don't disrupt the market it is stale
when I started with computers 320x200 was good resolution
Now we have single GPUs that can do 4k 60hz+
If you treat the 2080TI like the Titan GPU it is, then the next few generations are gonna be sweet
400x300 was really good and 640x480 was unheard of
You can mention CPU core count scaling in games
But there is a limit to that
Optimization around high core counts is fucking hard
ofc there is a limit, it will be dependant on what the developers can split to separate cores
single frame in game about what all is happening has to happen synchronously
oops had a typo, meant synchronously, not asynchronously
single frame has to be synchronous, but how the happenings are calculated can be asynhronous, but the synch point has to be based on the frame
Hopefully AMD has something to combat Turing
and Intel doesn't fuck up their GPUs again
yeah, I do hope there is more competition on graphics side
otherwise we just have to settle what nvidia will provide for us
Also DDR5 and PCIE 4.0 will be f u n
Since PCIe 4.0 x8 is as fast as x16
That means NVMe won't be bandwidth limited
yeah, but still, there are limits on the known materials used in computer tech for the time being, i'm pretty sure they have already reached the limits in lab environment but won't be releasing stuff if they can still keep milking with old existing cheaper tech
Its mostly issues with mass production
You can go about to 4nm before quantum tunneling becomes an issue
so.. i order through ebay newegg store get 9700k today.. 2 days to ship
ordered motherboard through newegg site, it is taking til dec 1
guys weird issue here i5-4690k runs fine on dx11 on dx12 higher frames but cpu usage stays below 100%
any idea what might be the issue i definitely need it to max out because it feels laggy sometimes
dx12 uses less cpu
DX12 is suppose to be more on GPUs
But considering BFV has a shit DX12 implementation
still makes no sense where the lag might be coming from since the frames dont spike
Frame times?
~16
~16ms frametime = 60fps
I meant frame time spikes
no matter what your pc is
DX12 is possible to implement
Plenty of benchmarks do it properly
Games don't because not everyone is on DX12 and it isn't mainstream yet
if i lock it with rivatuner could it help with frame time ?
I wouldn't lock FPS
yea not a fan of it as well
if you were a developer and you had to implement platform specific dx12 optimizations for like 10% benefit would you? x_x
clearly it's taking a monumental task to get it into Frostbite
I'd implement DX12 and tell everyone to suck it up
imo.. it'll never make it in
Just like how DX9 is dead
maybe next engine ๐
DX11 also had rough years
@harsh walrus Do you know what is causing the hitching? Also if DX11 works just use it
more like core thread count
An i5-8600k is about the king of gaming price to performance if you overclock
Now a 7600k will struggle
3770k is just as good as a 7700k for gaming
Yeah hyper threading isn't useful for games
4c4t + 1060, 4c8t does help a ton for V
How would 16c32t threadripper run bf V?
Bad
The way threadripper is built means it suffers in games
Look up a 2700x benchmark and then expect worse
For maximum FPS
if you get 6 or 8 core intel
The 2600 / 2700 will do perfectly fine for gaming
But if you want every last FPS then Intel
"perectly fine" but i bet an 8600k even beats a 2700x for gaming
so watercooled 9900k would be best option at the atm, disregarding price
9700k does not have HT
9900k is running hot as fk, anyone able to even OC it?
doesnt need it
havent you see 8600k vs 8700k benches?
no HT, less vulnerabilities ๐
thats why watercooled so you can oc
i really need to find the best aio
Also 9th gen Intel as a whole is SHIT for overclocking
yea im concerned for that tbh
Since the solder TIM kills thermals
you mean vs delid?
yeah
whats about the solder thing I have been reading?
they have some stock soldering on top of the chip?
gotcha, but still better than vs paste
Intel went back to solder for the TIM between the IHS and die
but the issue is that they made the die thicker
and used too much solder
So its thermal conductivity is limited
right, so basically rebuilding on top of that if you are professional oc'er is better
doesnt penetrate even as good as the 8700k paste method?
what about just for general purpose OC, aftermarket aio or noctua
I currently have 115x noctua NHD14, so wonder if upping that to AIO water cooling would be better if upgrading to 9900k
@steep gust might not be cpu related it seems gpu is dropping from 100% usage to ~20
A D15 and a 240mm AIO are about equal IIRC
*Or equally performing air cooler
@harsh walrus Do you also see a spike in frametimes? Use something like MSI Afterburner
240mm?
You really want a 280mm / 360mm AIO for heavy overclocking
At least when you can't delid
NH D15 is 140mm?
a 240mm radiators fits 2x120mm fans, which is where the name comes from
@steep gust do you have research regarding the 360 models at all?
I have been considering NZXT x52 as AIO
tbh
the floe riing 360 and coolermaster ML360R seem to be kings but info out there sucks
I'd go with a custom loop at that point
With sales and shopping around you can do a custom loop for $200
i dont trust myself with that nor have the patience so its either the two 360 options or just slap a noctua on and be done
It would be soft tubing and not all be name brand EKWB parts
the EVGA 280 is way up there in perf but very loud
Its probably super thick
I would look for radiator thickness / size
You can always replace fans
my case only fits a tiny one ๐
ill have to measure the top, it only takes a 280 though
front can fit a 360 with some work
Check the spec sheet
the top mount offsets to avoid ram
My case would need slim fans to fit a radiator in the front with my GPU
but it would stock block them
so that is ugly
the view anyway
yea i only have like 75mm to the GPU
guess the best option would be to just get some custom build from somewhere instead of trying to do yourself ๐ค
ALL YOU HAD TO DO FRACTAL DESIGN IS MAKE THE CASE 0.5in LONGER
the 2 main 360s are like 52mm
lol which u got?
Meshify C
with a ROG Strix GPU
yea its a short bus..
Also my H100i doesn't block RAM
Its close
but as long as the RAM isn't longer than the DIMM slot it shouldn't cause issues
that keep things nice and cool to OC?
ye
but I have a golden 8600k
Bad picture since side panel
27mm radiator + 25mm fans
so, building a gaming rig, what do you recommend at the moment for cpu? 8700k?
8700k / 8068k (if you overclock)
even if money is not an issue?
Yep
interesting ๐ค
Unless you really want a 9900k
But you can just buy a 1440p 144hz / 165z monitor
and be GPU bottlenecked (in most games / depending on GPU)
I have 144hz 3840x1080 monitor
and 2080, which i'm maybe gonna upgrade to 2080 ti
if they get the stability on them that there should be, dont want the hassle of being in rma cycle
3840x1080 is about 12% more pixels than a 2560x1440p monitor
Also 2080TI haven't been dying
Anymore than normal
they've been combusting
uh no
There were 1070s that literally caught on fire
RMA rates for the 2080ti are normal
in bfv i'm more cpu bound than gpu bound
because i can lower the details / scale if want more fps, would be nice to have steady 144+fps
Look up 1440p benchmarks for the CPU / GPU you want and take an estimated guess from there
seems like only option is to upgrade cpu/ram at the moment
If you have 2x8GB of RAM don't upgrade
because my 4770k@4.2 with 16gb 1600mhz ddr3 is limiting my cpu/ram speed, gpu is not issue
DDR3 oof
I have DDR3 too
that is why I am considering 9900k and 16gb 3600mhz
I don't have problems with it
Depends on your use case
BF5 for example only uses 10gb of ram
because even in overwatch which is less demanding, I cant get past 240fps with my ram, even with cpu & gpu load being at 50% only
I doubt RAM is capping your FPS
Me too
It sounds like a CPU cap since overwatch doesn't perfectly scale with cores
So 50% usage would be 4 cores at 100%
4770k is 4c8t
What is 50% of 8
so maybe it is
Also the 4770k isn't exactly speedy
in BFV my cpu is usually at 80%
BFV is good at using 6 cores
Its hard to compare the 4770k to any modern CPU due to DDR3
and other fun stuff
yeah
Since just matching RAM speed / timings isn't enough
I mean I would guess the cpu could use faster ram
but it is not worth just getting faster ram
so I guess I will just have to upgrade all cpu+mobo+ram
oof 60fps
I have 4770k+2080 3840x1080 100+fps
Don't ever try a high refresh rate monitor
I can't use a 60hz panel anymore
Even windows feels better at 144hz
lol yea i got 60 next to 144 and i can tell once it hits the other screen moving the mouse
i moved V over to it to feel the diff and its like a slide show
is OC sensitive to temps over 70c 80c etc? or should it OC regardless as long as you're under the thermal limit
mainly only limited by the voltage and lottery
like my current 3770k seems fine temp wise even on a 212 evo so it would seem a waste to get a noctua
if your CPU is just limited
@steep gust so fps is ~100 frame time +/- 3-4 ms so my gues would be the gpu usage is cousing the lag
playing at 144hz is super expensive so stay away from it
enjoy your 1080p 60hz monitors while you can lol
1080 144 is fine
i might get a 75hz monitor soon
I push close to 75 fps on my RX 580 on ultra settings when playing BFV lol
Is this the area to ask for help with the deluxe edition stuff not working?
Generally temperatures on CPUs don't really change anything in the 70s and 80s
You only get scaling with subzero on CPUs, now memory can suffer when getting hot @rose eagle
I've seen CPUs throttle at 80-90C before but some CPUs have faulty sensors
my i5-4690K would throttle right before it hit 90C
so I assume it was off by about 10C or so
CPUs shouldn't thermal throttle until 95-105C
Now turbo might drop to reduce temps but just disable that 
Also disable CPU temp monitoring in the BIOS because who gives a shit about thermal throttling 
found a 1070 for $280
My buddy attempting to OC 7700k and even 4.8 giving errors
I think it's 4.2 base so ๐ฉ
10% OC not lottery winner
Did I get a lottery on my 3770k getting 4.3 or something?
Dunno
22.8% OC though?
My 8600k has a base of 3.6ghz and can do 5.3ghz
That isn't a 45% overclock since the all core turbo is like 4.1ghz
Google what the all core turbo is to find what you actually overclocked
If you can't exceed your turbo it's still worthwhile though?
I don't know how turbo functions once you exceed it
With your base clock
tldr it depends on how you set it
3.5/3.9 is my CPU
If you set 2 cores to 5.0ghz and the other 4 to 4.8ghz, then it is functionality the same as turbo
If single core workloads your CPU will turbo to 5.0ghz, and multicore will do 4.8ghz
Now its generally just easier to sync all cores
and then the CPU will turbo up to that
So mine is all core 4.3
If you have all cores set to 43x on the multiplier yes
and yeah once you change the core multipliers then factory turbo is tossed out of the bag
Stock is still there for stuff like safe mode, safe boot, etc
hello everyone...still looking to buy BFV...but still rocking the GTX970...anyone have experience running this game with 970?
great...thanks i will try it
i have new mobo, cpu, mem, and M2 drive coming in...cant afford those shiny expensive GPUs ๐ฆ
kk
@ocean tulip 970 should be fine for 60fps easy
thanks...thats good to know!
seems like BF1 was a CPU hog more than GPU
kk...i got a 8700k coming this week
just as long as it runs smooth ๐
But game looks amazing on low lol
HAHA
What's wrong with 60fps? lol
anyone else getting bad server lag tonight
im getting bad actual FPS...
real bad
but i downclocked my CPU and assumed it was it, surely servers are shitting also
getting like 50fps sometimes x_x
My tower has a 6600k at 4.2Ghz, 1070, and 16GB of ram what FPS / setting configs should I expect to see and use
I know my processor is kinda succ now cause no hyper thread but upgrading is not an option rn
yea i have to test by re-OCing but my FPS is SHIT tonight after putting my 3770k back to 3.5...
i had a nice 4.3 OC on it
which was about 20fps boost in game
Iโve got a 6700k a 1080 and 16gb ram. Everything runs maxed out between 70 to 110 fps
It shits itself only when in breakthrough everyone is attacking/defending the same obj. Never dropped below 55 fps
Does dx12 improve performance? Mineโs off
Ah no, my gameโs smooth as silk
I heard the game likes to eat cpu so I was a bit concerned but I should be fine
Mind that all my hardware is stock. No oc whatsoever
I got occasional stutter in 1 if I have chrome tabs open but if I keep everything closed itโs fine
Just high? I run 1 at ultra.
Dang my machine is already aging oof
i5 6600k is the top end i5 from that generation
And yea Iโll mess with it when the time comes
huh
okay well good to know it wasn't only just me
and yeah I feel like I was getting more fps drops than usual today too :/
which doesn't make sense cause there hasn't been a client side patch...
but i definitely felt stuttery/laggy
I think even a 8600K would sit around 90% usage in BFV lol
I guess @rose eagle will let us know how his 9700k does
its only on certain maps my cpu is pegged and causes issues but id like to remove those dips
pretty much every map except fjell for me
and probably just cause it's a small map
and plus this annoys the living heck outta me cause BFV is literally the only game I have issues with
Only map that I sometime have more usage is on Rotterdam, I used to get shit performance on arras too, but that worked itself off, don't know how
Oh wait! We got the new RX480 driver today!
I think
Yup, it's 18.11.2
Great, Driver update just in time for me to switch to a 1070, Good job as always AMD
I fixed my performance problems by switching to fullscreen, which I hate using
But it works. Windowed fullscreen was weird, the framerate was fine, but it wasn't smooth
AMD cards seem to have less trouble in BFV
my RX 580 holds up well, over 70 fps on ultra settings 1080p
then again, another rx 580 user could be different
which is what bad optimization is
just realized 144hz lowers pixel life ๐ญ my babies
im tempted to go with the EVGA CLC 280 , is cheapo, seems best aio and swap the fans
the competitor would be the Thermaltake floe riing 360 but $80 vs $175
@Lyyted It's not really odd, but also really depends
the basic idea is that the pixels in your display have a limited number of times they can switch, but you should hardly reach that limit through normal use
ahh never thought of it like that. but wouldnt it be lowers pixel life faster? I cant imagine that number limit tho lol
context to voice discussion ignore this
oof
Is the i5 8600k any good for battlefield v?
yes
i use an i5 4690k and run the game just fine
reee ok
what gpu you got
oof
lemme see
i use an i5 4690k with a gtx 1060 and i get like 90 fps. sometimes in 100s
๐
Radeon RX580 8gb oc edition or something
that is a decent card
you should be running this game a bit better than me. amd cards work well in frostbyte engine games
ah
oki
Hey Guys. Does someone els have a Bug in BFV where u cant see things in ur arsenal? I can see the price but not the picture..
@wicked nymph +++
praise novideo
@wispy wing Dual channel 2x8gb 3200mhz ๐ฆ not sure why im running low FPS then
@prime jasper how did you sort low fps problem for your i5? i use a 4590 and fps keeps contantly dropping with rx 580 at 1080p with low or either ultra settings. may whisper me solution?
THE DAY IS TODAY MY FRIENDS
Or not?
idk
anyways, is there a chance my pc cannot have 2 screens?
there is-you try run two 4k screens ;p
it doesnt affect the perf but in fact hogs the memory clock usage making it idle at max on newer generation nvidia gpus
so it's better orr running secondary monitor on igpu
yep
it idles at 100%
for amd and gtx 1000 series
once u set the monitor up
Doesn't happen for me
it maxed out the memory clock. at least to me
so i prefer use cpu';s integrated graphics for secondary monitor.-less stress for the gpu.
it idles at max
thats why ur gpu is above 50C
@plain vessel what...? sorry but that was not my question?
it infact can easily reach 60C on idle running secondary monitor due to the fact of resolution
i asked if there's a chance my pc, GPU cannot have more than 1 screen
let's say running 2-3 2k mnonitors are more heavier than 1080p or 720p right?
hiting in load 75C is normal
@plain vessel WHERE IS IT
what u can do is to adjust fan curves
bottom/up?
the mem clock is maxed out or nearly maxed
which means-ur gpu might idle in usage at arund 10% in example
but it takes memory clock which results in extra heat when fans off still.
once u plug the monitor to mb for igpu support-it dips down to 40s
and yet that reached 50C
@plain vessel you took a picture like i can see through all the cables
so having single monitor on gpu would dip down temps under 40s
yep
and that brings performance down...?
on idling system because of multi monitor plugged to gpu makes it take a little perf u could use for games
it's like zero to none
@plain vessel thanks man,if i took a picture of my pc, could you analyze it please?
but in temperatures, having single monitor is about 10-25C lower degrees of any ambient temp
does your MB support DVI?
like, im using one for games and one for you know, discord and stuff
or hdmi/DP ? so u could plug the second monitor there
@plain vessel gtx 1060 6gb, NOT Ti
@craggy dagger what cpu you got?
where can i know? or i need to actually find the paper of my pc parts
@prime jasper i7 something, dont remember the rest
meh just type in search dxdiag
it'll tell the processor u got
@craggy dagger running secondary monitor on single dedicated gpu affects not the actual performance by a significant margin but the temperatures of gpu idling with fans off. the way reduce it is to run monitor on igpu
a sheet of paper with specifications
why...?
@prime jasper i mean, i know what a reception is, i have no idea where is it tho
the igpu's are mostly as a back up for secondary monitor which isnt used for computing
also igpu's are a great opportunity in streaming if you dont have the capture card such as elgato.
whats igpu
igpu-integrated graphics processing unit(intel cpu's igpu)
for amd integrated graphics are called APU.
ok, so i can use my cpu as a backup plan for my second screen
sound ok i guess, does it affect performance?
the rest of igpu's performance u can use for obs as a streaming card until you get dedicated one
yeh
on idle ur 1060 will idle at lower temps
it can be from10C to 25C difference
depending on ambient temps which usually isnt a matter.
this thing is so complicated lmao, i just want a 144hz screen
but i dont wanna waste my current one
for me the room can be at 15C or at 25C, so the temps are just 2C diff when using igpu for multi monitor
so im gonna use it as a second one
buy an adapter
My 1080ti is 40c idle
if ur mobo doesnt support dvi and its a dvi port
OMG THIS IS TOO COMPLICATED
But with fans not spinning that's expected
How much does an adapter cost?
it rlly depends
@unborn epoch omg shut up nick you are making me more stressed than I am
difference between prices is?
hgo from a dvi let's say to DP or hdmi basic cable
the performance-usually spliters are most expensive
or cables that can handle higher badwidth but in basic tasking tat's a waste of money.
Just plug in the fucking cables
omg i might as well just give up on this current screen
look
really, its gonna make me have less of an headache
use ur mobo as a station for secondary screen
and a mobo is?
go to fking bios and find enable multi monitor
motherboard
it'll enable integrated graphics if u didnt until now
Unless you old ass monitor has a VGA connection you will be able to connect a 144hz monitor and your old monitor
nick i see you typing there
OMG
@unborn epoch its a white cable
DETAILS 100
really tho?
The connector is white?
true.
Or the cable is white
Then it's most likely dvi
GOOD OR BAD
Good
Your GPU has at least one displayport connector
So connect your new monitor to the display port connector on your gpu
Graphics card*
but my screen that im using now is already connected
Yas your 1060 has 3 or 4 inputs
Take a picture
You can't name the brand
I don't know what you mean by small holes
Also imgur doesn't require an account to upload images
If you want a correct answer the easiest route is a picture
When they drop the new patch? 4 dec?
wrong channel my friend
Oh i saw that now
wait, i dont need a certain cable for the monitor, right? different ones can work if i got it right
yes, as long the motherboard supports that port.
unless you need keep your monitor plugged into the gpu so keep at it
so if i do, its false?
wait, it can support multiple ones?
and gpu always of current gen supports 1dvi 1hmi and DP
im just going to get a picture of my pc
gpu can support multi monitors depending on of a maximum resolution
1920x1080 is ok?
maximum resolution of 1060 is 7680x4320@60Hz
im gonna make then compy the primary one, not stretch
@prime jasper lmao thats alot
u cna plug into even 240hz monitor
means
u can run let's say 4k UHD+ 2K monitors at the same time
and a highly limited 2x 4's UHD-real 2x 4k will not be supported.
if im gonna take a picture of my pc, are you going to be able to analyze what's what?
u can run up to 4 1920x1080p monitors on your card
that doesnt include the igpu if ur mb has its own ports. but sorta of a waste xd
your card has 5 ports
if u plug 1080p 1920\s monitors there will be 4 of them fully supported
1920x4=7680p on 1080x4=4320p
but plugging into 4of them limits the main monitor's refresh rate-itll degradate from 144hz to 60hz.
so 2 monitors are a sweet spot for 1080p@gtx 1060
so there's no chance i cant fit two if i got it right
just play around and see what cable fits
right?
thx
gpu limit is 4 1920x1080p which results in only 60hz support.
so connecting two 1080p while one of them is 144hz-there's no limitations
so lemme get it right now, how do they work?
does my mouse just smoothly move from one to another?
my most concerns are how the mouse moves from one to another
what about ingame?
does it happen too?
great, im using fullscreen
hmm, when im gonna press ESC for the menu ingame, is it gonna let me do so? because thats the whole point of two screens
when i do that i can see my mouse soooooo
?
i mean, when im pressing esc to see my mouse
thats really disapointing
thats the whole reason i wanted to get a second monitor, TO NOT tab out
hmm
nah, im only using fullscreen
i wonder if i can make bf not tab out but only show desktop
not minimize it and make temp windowed?
if i get correctly you need it stick full screen right awhile surfing on the other monitor right? do borderless for battlefield but at first adjust refresh rate for the main monitor to the max else it'll be set to smth random
i only play fullscreen, i dont like anything else
btw, when i mirror my screens, it doesnt litterally miror them right?
for example, i want to have discord opened on the second one and bf on the primary
So why do you prefer fullscreen? there isn't really a change between that and borderless fullscreen.
It's only easier to swap over to different screens.
i just like it

btw, do you have an answer to my question?
above your first message
if you mirror your screens one screen will copy your main monitor
how can i make one show bf and one show discord
drag discord to the screen you want and open battlefield
so what option to choose in windoes?
doesnt that mean bf will be all over the two screens if i choose fullscreen?
no that never happens unless you set it up specifically inside nvidia control panel
it wont since you;ll be able adjust the resolution for a single monitor and choose which one supports the game.
which one supports the game=primary monitor???
yep
u choose primary one on the game settings
it's easier to do it in windows too, not all games support monitor selection
@unborn epoch bf does
yes, bf is not all games
@prime jasper its ok its also in windoes
bf is barely a game
This is how my setup looks like and thx to borderless I can just swap over without tabbing out @craggy dagger
Not playing a game at the moment but you get the point
also make sure you set your refreshrate to 144 in windows, makes everything in windows a lot more enjoable
I like this setup better then 2 screens next to each other
ya looks nice
looking to the left or up is equally strenuous
or right
and if you have a true neckbeard chair you just have a headsupport anyway
send me a bottle
nacho, why not route your headphone cable underneath the table?
I take my headphone with me if I go somewhere on the train etc
SMH Nacho
ah right
I'm half cyborg, I had an operation to change my liver.
So I can drink all I want and don't get drunk 
If i'm 25% human and 25% machine what is the other 50% 
a cyborg per definition is already human/machine
i'm taking this too far, thanks for RUINING IT
the other 50% is probably nachos though

They should come with?
Iโve been wanting to do that with my monitors as well but never got around to buying the mount
no
cheaper 144hz monitors come with HDMI cables, which is dumb as hell
you need displayport for any new 144hz+ monitor
I say I want to free up space in my desk but I know Iโm probably just gonna put another monitor there cause thatโs just how I am
HDMI can technically support it
new standard can yes
But you'll find the manufacturers will cheap out
I mean if it works whatever I use DVI-D on my second monitor cause itโs like 7 years old lol
It has DVI-D and VGA
yours is hella old then
Itโs some old Samsung 1080p monitor
Mines got DVI-D and HDMI but an older standard
I donโt need a fancy screen for discord or system monitors
For its age itโs actually a really nice panel lol
I wanna get a 144Hz Monitor but I feel like my 1070 couldnโt run games at that speed
Or games like battlefield I guess
what resolution
it would run bfv at 1080p easily, if you lower your settings that is
anyone else got fps drops after new update?
my page file is hitting 12gb on BFF
bfv
how bad is that
and should I consider moving the game to my ssd
actually I think Iโm reading it wrong
How big is BF5 atm
I only have a 250GB SSD I might have to purge stuff when it comes out of the performance benefit is high
Oh itโs already out isnโt it
When I get around to buying it
Maybe I should try moving bfv to my ssd and see if that helps
Has anyone done that and know if it makes a difference?
It will if its using a page file a ton
No clue if it is.. lol
would mix and match 8 + 4 gig sticks work
you only need 12 gigs of ram for bf to run at a stable framerate right
you lose dual channel
Afaik mixing kits is never a good idea
challenge accepted
or just use jedec standard
every RAM kit is rated at 2133mhz
Its not recommended since you lose almost all overclocking when different sized RAM sticks
Just buy a second 8GB stick for like $40
@steep gust so if somehow a 212 evo can keep a cpu at 75c before it starts being unable to be OC you'd say that's prob just due to the cpu itself right? a better cooler would be useless.
useless, as far as a better OC
Depends which cpu ?
or well, how much voltage ur pushing through
i mean let's just assume you've hit the "best" voltage and mhz and it's at 75c
the cpu doesnt seem like it'll take more
buying a noctua or better cooling wouldnt help it OC more?
if it was reaching like 90c i think it might
i know when I switched from my 212 Evo to an h100i my temps went down by like 10c
under max load
im prob buying a CLC 280
used to peak at like 70c i peak at like 60c now
i had like 9 tabs opened last night researching lol
man i had shit FPS again last night...
on base clock
:/
i was getting shittier fps than usual
which doesnt make sense
other guys i was playing with were saying same thing
idk what kind of sorcery is happening rn
twentybillion megahurts
yes
@rose eagle If you are at the daily voltage limit on a hyper 212, or require a ton more voltage to hit the next multiplier then a better cooler does nothing
9700k is not a good cpu
get that motherboard FAASSSTTEEERRRR
yea so i think im just going to slap my 212 Evo on the new cpu and see if it OCs first
if im thermal limited then ill look into an aio
All of 9th gen CPUs are bad products
9700k is trash
๐คท
is trash but if you gave me a 8700k vs 9700k for free i wouldnt piss on the 9700k and reject it lol
rtx is trash as well
guess my whole PC will be trash ๐
2700x is a downgrade from my fkin 3770k though
RTX is trash, Turing is okay
i cant just buy it and wait for amd to release their new line
9700k beats 2700x in vidya all day everyday
So just wait for Zen2
I'm not exactly only doing video games though.
the guy behind zen already left amd
everything amd is coming with now will be DOOKIE
because the brain behind current architecture already ran away
what
who needs HT when ye got 8 cores!
DOOKIE
You really think Intel has the same people who made x86?
no, that's why you haven't seen any major improvements for years
no one can take over

apple is dead
also x86 is made by amd
or at least, amd has the patent
ya not the 64bit variant we see now
is playing Creedence Clearwater Revival - Fortunate Son
this is your jam @rose eagle
wat
The x86-64 InstrUcTure Set is PAtenTEd By AmD
ya intel is better

They didn't expect competition which is why getting 10nm to work is taking so long
You do realize you can't draw 500w on a mobile phone 
You do realize they are planning on making chips for their non-mobile products as well 
so called mac
Doesn't mean they will be good
Mac have shitty cooling solutions
1 trillion budget, eaaasy
shitty cooling solution requires more efficient chips = better chipskees
An overclocked 7980XE easily does 500w
Also silicon has some pretty well know limits and just becoming more efficient =/= better

amd will probably release a fully optics based processor by the year 2021
err
apple
amd is still on wool technology
call it Retina
there are plenty of (more expensive) materials to chase after
There are more exotic materials
Graphene
cause yeah afaik moore's law is becoming less and less relevant every year
so like graphene doesn't have the same limits of silicon?
Anything that is a conductor could be used
Moore's Law isn't an actual law
Its an observation
That isn't super accurate even nowadays
well yeah no i know it's an observation not a law
but like it's been pretty relevant afaik until the last few years
and yeah like back in the 60's or whatever everything was expanding at an exonential rate now not so much
but i guess silicon is still used cause it's the cheapest? just found some random article about graphene and apparently it's way better than silicon
also i'm confident the future isn't even in electronic cpus, it's all about the protons bay-bee
more speed & less power
plus from what i understood before the issue also comes down to size - like we can only make shit so small
cause u know can't really make something smaller than the size of an atom
funky shit, that's for sure
Its when electrons decide to be in a different spot randomly
i see
so like that happens when u get super small
and not much u can do to counter it
Quantum tunnelling or tunneling is the quantum mechanical phenomenon where a particle passes through a potential barrier that it classically cannot surmount tldr electrons go through stuff they shouldn't
i see
i guess i'm just trying to understand why that happens as u get smaller + what can we do to stop that
Quantum mechanics apply to tiny stuff on the scales on atoms
So don't go that small and its not an issue
You can't really stop it
ah so essentially we are restricted by size then
It ruins CPUs since they kinda rely on electrons moving in defined ways
yeah that makes sense
photonic computing
The chances are super super super small still
But when you have billions of transistors with billons of cycles a second then the chances go up
idk i guess im just wondering whether we're close to reaching our limits
