i mean, i went back and forth a lot but ultimately got a 9700k
My 6700k is still doing fine so I don't really even though of upgrading it yet
opposed to a 2700x and upgrade to whatever they come out with
I thought you were staying with your old CPU forever @rose eagle
fine is relative ;P
๐
Do you think it will bottleneck a rtx2070?
yes
can 100% assure it will
i mean thats basically the exact same as my 3770k OCd
for gaming
i can let everyone know hopefully tonight ๐
mhh okay good to know
and you better believe ill be slandering the shit outta anyone on 4c8t thinking their CPU isnt a bottleneck lol
people say it seems to be a problem with 4k gaming
I was torn for a while between the 9900k and the 9700k
it would be less a problem at 4k
but I am not in 4k yet so I assume it won't be a problem
than more
I like lower res on every game besides battlefield
oh yea true
didn't even think about that
ratio or res?
or am I getting something wrong
i understand low res csgo if you never changed from cs
Lower res to get rid of the stupid unnecessary clutter
low res makes you a lot less accurate though
You trolled me so hard nick
why
only reason low res works in cs is because 99% of the situations in cs are closerange anyway
How can a res affect your accuracy?
i dont always snipe but when i do, i like to see more than 32 pixels
because there are less pixels to aim on
I never heard or had any issues with that
because cs is mostly cqc
800x600 most likely ๐
then you are essentially blurring the pixels
which mean it might look like you landed a headshot, but you missed
but in certain games, like csgo, thats not much of a problem since it is mostly cqc
i played at 800x600 a long time, later i switched to a custom 4:3 resolution at 1440p
god res
are you still gonna use that res with this build?
any t1 player will destroy you at 400x400 or 4K
When I was pro in source I used 1024 x 768
res doesn't make you anything
and you'll change that res if you have 10 losses in a row
4:3 with a hd res
@rose eagle your mobo coming in tonight?
is coldzera still considered the best csgo player?
Nah
He was a while ago
But the tables have turned
Brazilian csgo was at the top 2 years ago
Now the power is back with EU
@red ingot its supposed to be
astralis is da best
but individual player, s1mple is simply #1
S1mple is just on another level
But has very aggro game play
Which makes or breaks Navi a lot
whats the difference between a cpu with base freq like 3.6 and boost 4.3 vs one with 4.0 and 4.3?
f0rest and get_right need to come back
fuck forest
f0rest is baeeeee
did you see my story about playing vs him?
no
do tell
did he destroy you?
sits patiently
when i first started pc gaming i came against him
and yea
he fucking wrecked
and i was new so i didnt even know about hacking
i was just so dumbfounded how someone could be this good
lol
i didnt know who he was, the lobby was just freaking out about it
Back in my pro sources day I randomly played against flusha in a pug and he was just fucking GOD
and from then on you dedicated your life to esports to one day rise above him and beat him?
fuck no, i went back to console for the next 5 years
rip
zozzle
that's not a motivational story
Lmao
its a realistic sad story
i wanted an underdog story
where he gets rekt but then he keeps trying and failing, but slowly getting better
I will never ever play against flusha again
and one day becoming the best the world has ever seen
flusha isn't that godlike anymore
and then i make it into a movie and make millions
he stopped using cheats
you know who the best is though?
i remember my friend tried doing a cal team, and i played with him, i think we were 2nd lowest group or whatever they called it
we had some ripoff name of a good cs team
they asked us to scrim one day
nerds in pyjamas
that... that sucked
lol
at this time we were individually above average players
but they were semi pro, and good teammates
u mean nerds in greasy undershirts and boxers
nerds in wifebeaters
man, all of us were so sad after that scrim
stained wifebeaters
and then @storm osprey got a job
My best match in cal came in cal main against devastation where we beat them after being down 13-2 on cpl fire
and left esports
Good times man, good times.
i was a freshman at the time, i just went back to console gaming and finished school
freshman in highschool
but i also played way too much
gaaaaaaaaaa
Highlight of my cs career
amazon fucked my asshole

@storm osprey
i couldnt imagine the hours it takes to get into a pro team
i don't think i have that kind of dedication
cs is so much more than being a good shot/map layout/positioniing
having those 3 takes you far in a lot of games
not cs
imo being that good at a game isn't even fun anymore cause it becomes a chore
i played OW at a semi pro level, and even at that level i didnt like how much i HAD to play
that's what i mean
you have "practices" and shit
f that
i just wanna plaaaaaaaaaaay
Guys can i ask you guys a question? every time im starting the game it like start from the very begning in reset my settings
it was like 2 hours of scrims a day, vod/strat reviews before and after, and then matches on weekends
ew
thats pretty lenient too, but i didnt like it
It had to be done
and play all strategically rather than run in and go yolo
we played vs teams that put 3x more hours than us into the game as a team, and we would beat them xD
plus then you never get any hard flanks
cause the other team isn't completely retarded
I played 2 season with dazed
And let me tell you
That man would yell at you for every little mistake
He was a perfectionist
plus i feel like the skill gap between top 1% and top 0.1% and top 0.01% is massive
bleh
But we did win open twice before source died because of that
yea, we were one of the better semi pro teams, and then we faced jake (went on to be in OWL) and his team, and we got slaughtered
never got to play source or 1.6
I started cs in beta 3 and made pro in source. But it was such a small community at the time
CSGO is soooooo big
I wish I made it pro in that game
Instead of source
So much more money to be made today
more tight nit
yeah
idgaf about $$ from gaming i'd rather have a career doing something else
yea source was, idk, i didnt like it at all
oh yea, when i played vs forest, i was using a ball mouse xD
27 here
i think i had a ball mouse for gaming till i built my own pc in 2014
wow
granted up till 2014 i wasnt seriously pc gaming, and was using family computer
family computer 
make sure u clear internet history boys
Haven't seen one of those in 20 years
ur butt is cheap
yea
also when i lived with my mom we didnt make much money
so family computer was all we got
best gaming mouse was logitech wingman gaming mouse, ofc ballmouse 
i had a razer boomslang for a very long time
@storm osprey had to sell his body on the streets to afford his family computer
i think i got mine in 2002 or 2001
nah, i sold my body for my own console

i need to buy pants for formal situations, what pants technology should i go for
how formal
i always liked dockers slacks
they have a good fit for me
the slim straight ones
like wedding or christmas party type formal
work christmas party i mean
more like adinner, actually
no like dress pants
i always look for the docker slacks
i bought lots of dress pants from Costco
i mean for me it's either jeans or dress pants
in spanish its pantalones
but english is just pants
if they are fancy, its dress pants
i got a swag ass shirt with a dope camo texture
it's very subtle
that way I can go to a party unnoticed.
phone skin company?
dbrand
and now a word from our sponsors
haha
i can't fucken find a direct link
google dbrand camo
it looks like that but more subtle
also it feels nice so boys n galls will want to touch me i think
lol wtf nick
again?
I helped u
that doesn't mean a damn thing
you only said to not limit my swag
i rubbed one out btw, back to shopping @ hottopic
Wow, a bit too much information there Nick, but uh, you do you I guess.
i did!

^
I've been thinking about it, I actually ended up playing in a couple matches with you and Nethrex a couple days ago Yagman.
Oh and "LoliJuices"
Very interesting squadmate that one
i mean, that name is telling enough
Yeah
Well you blended in well then
"Interesting" is probably as tame as a term u can use for lolijuices
nick and majic are above me in rank
helllll yyeeaaahhh
i want a phone that looks sort of like the iphone 4 model (with a metal flat bezel and non curved screen) but with a screen like the iphone x or samsung s10 or whatever phone has a near bezel less design these days
so i can get a proper bumper for it
i think that would work very well
fucking dude on fb marketplace wants to trade his i5-8600K and Z370 motherboard for a PS4 Pro
sometimes you can't fix stupid
ya definitely
well, if all your friends are on console, i can understand
if you grew up with a pc, you'll just find new friends
All my friends are on console but I'm still on PC 
my colleagues are all console turds
i don't bother with them when it comes to games
can of air
who wastes money on can of air anymore?
i use my shop vac in reverse
so you suck in messes, and spit them out into your computer
thatll blow anything up in 5 secs, i can have a blow up doll orgy ready in minutes
yea i like to suction out the toilet after a bad diarrhea and then eject it into the PC as fertilizer fuel
@opaque crest youre friends issue, check wifi settings and modem/router stuff
sometimes nat type is not correct
its been a while since i used wireless but i think ideal nat type was nat type 2
anything else usually caused problems
if thats not the problem see if there are firmware updates for you modem/router
i use what i linked
static charged air?
i really dont see how static can travel through air
and the xpower is a plastic construction
Yeah idk I've been told the electric ones u can have static issues
so for static to go through the motor at the base, through the shell and out the nozzle and have static seems pretty odd to me
just my logic process on the scenario
Expensive can of air still cheaper than new pc
with that said, i have used that blower for my pc roughly 20 times
But yeah skimmed the reviews and everyone's saying no issues
and friends have used it as well
So I might consider it
no problems on our end
I also saw that someone got carried away and spent 3h dusting their whole house
That comment alone made me want to buy it
i cleaned my car as well
There's so much dust in my house that I'd want to blow away
Oh and in my car too
But my can of air would run out so fast
yep
youll definitely do a day of cleaning with the xpower when you can
Great well another purchase I gotta add to the list
Panda what's the status on your motherboard
@rose eagle
Something like that
Was just gonna say define old 
i mean.. i had it since 2000 when i just retired it
im not sure if i ever cleaned that fan intake
prob not, so it could be 18 year old dust
i mean the fan spun.. as to how much air got sucked through.. .063%? ๐
so i had basically 0 intakes on my PC for years
Lol
Really tho
If I turn my fans up to max speed
From min speed
My pc gets 1c coolee
Cooler
i think the airflow was just due to negative pressure sucking it from the big vents in the front of the case ๐
Aka fucking nothing
why you need intakes?! PFFF
Really
just negative pressure SUCK that air in
True
Or just intake only 
I wonder what would happen other than the obvious high temps
i wouldnt say obvious
Dont need airflow if you just sit your pc in the snow 
Canada ftw
Some programmer here want to help me? 
U did yesterday
๐
Never 
@red ingot What if you do some of the programming for me though? ๐ค
Then I will be done sooner
lol 
I've only ever done html java python
lol
html is the hardest of them all
And from what I remember u said u were doing C
If you know those 3 you should be able to do C
Never done a line of C in my life
They are all similar tho
Plus I've written code in them before, doesn't mean it was good ๐
๐คฃ
My programming skills are like a solid C-
Lol
im c++ pro, i done arduino prototypes
lol
i switched to duckduckgo
I have played around with Arduino long ago too
So Nick, you want to help me with my program?
no
Rude
double rude;
Little bit of both ๐
It is a bit complicated
200 lines is not a lot normally speaking I know. But this shizzle badizzle is taking me soooo long
it is in C
damn order from newegg still hasn't left commiefornia
i'm tracking it and it's been packaging for 3 days
not even in transit yet...

Not able to find a good 2080ti on the market
get a 1080ti
define good
The ones I want are all sold out ;-;
ah
it's the world telling u to get a 1080ti
Whatโs your experience with ZOTAC?
no experience
i have a msi mobo running fine rn
always seemed like a 2nd rate gpu brand

but i hear they arent bad
i always thought gigabyte was 2nd rate too...
^
they border imo
Same
asus/msi/evga all sold out?
if they are second rate, and the zotac is second rate, i would definitely recommend a gigabyte over zotac
The only EVGA card I can find on the market is the ultra gaming one
LOL amazon wants 2Gs for the trio
they are usually the most expensive
odd considering they are apparently catching fire
It's the holidays, what you expect
I expect my god damn card
the closer it gets to december 25th, the lower and lower stock things are gonna be
I wanted to upgrade from a 1070ti to a 1080ti, but can't now..
Fucking RTX being a flop & causing cards in general to be expensive as fuck again..

200 for a 1080
jesus thats a good deal
you could sell me a blower style 1080 for that price
the cheapest one was new was 400
so 300 is a good price
250 is very good
200 is damn good
It seems the 1070ti to the 1080 TI is currently double the price
for a 25% increase
Yeah man
doesn't sound like a good investment to me
They discontinued the card
So people are going to price gouged the hell out of you
Supply and demand
I got a 980 ti im using
@storm osprey I'd buy a blower style 1080 for $300 tbh lol
would just undervolt it and put new paste on it
seriously
blower style cooling is a good concept
why cant they do a dual fan blower?
xbox one x uses it and manages ~60C in a tiny form factor case
does xboxonex use a dedicatedgpu?
it's APU
so thats a bit different
has 40 compute units which makes it more powerful than a RX 580 lol
rx 580 has 36 compute units
it has 12GB of ram that is shared between system and the graphics
gets more complicated with the type of ram they use
it's as fast as GDDR5 but uses those same modules for the rest of the system too which is weird
the ram helps with the hard drive speed
it uses a 5400 rpm hard drive but the ram somehow speeds up loading times in games as fast as a SSD
strange for a system to utilize ram for hard drive bandwidth
another thing, the xbox one x uses vapor cooling
it's a 5mm thick copper chamber with liquid in it
and the blower fan sits next to it
it's a very simple console to take apart
easier than even pc builds tbh
there is only 2 screws on the back that you remove
take them out and you can take off all of the plastic exterior lol
ps4pro is a pain in the ass
the clips are tough
you SWEAR you are going to break it
xbox one x has rails that you slide out
and it's semi-modular
meaning once you take it apart, you can swap out the harddrive
So it's essentially a PC
kind of lol
i wonder what would happen if you remove the disc drive for room to add another hard drive or maybe a fan
has to be a 2.5" drive
That Ultra gaming card by EVGA ainโt that bad
there might be some compromise
xbox one x has a 112mm blower fan

You can reinstall the OS using CMD with admin privileges, you will need to download OSU1 from Microsoft and youโll need Xboxhddmaster to format the drive with the correct sized partitions relative to your hard drive size. An SSD is pointless to put in a Xbox One, X or S because a 1TB SSD that's actually decent cost the same as the Xbox its self and the Console canโt use the full bandwidth the SSD can output so yes a HDD or SHDD is the best option same goes for the PS4.
so they allow u to remove it and change it out, but they make it uber difficult to actually format it
you can snag a 1TB SSD at good prices now tho
ohhh
144hz came in ๐
it feels pretty good
ye black friday
unfortunately the tn panel is getting noticeable
sequential read/write are an incomplete part of the picture
any SSD can get 550/500
sorry to hear 3 of these is shipping buddy

cant wait to play minesweeper
IN 144HZ
gonna hate having to set up the 60 next to it but at least now i got smooth games and pretty cat videos ๐
at the same time
you can get a 1080 144hz acer monitor for 200 bucks all the time
i used to have it, was fantastic
acer gn24hl i think it is
well i got this thing 150 flat
its sad i remember fucking model numbers for shit...
i remember my parents license plates and i only have an hour behind the wheel if that makes you feel better
i mean, knowing parents license plate a lot more useful to me than ranomd monitor model numbers
Y not
I have an id10t issue, PC won't boot motherboard just sitting there glowing. Swear I've tried every jumper for the power switch lol
Also what's with the 12v 4 pin AND 8 pin next to it? I don't have a 12v 4 pin on my PSU that I can see
Not supposed to use both are you?
ASRock z390 Taichi
Eating dinner real quick too
my discord sound is not working HELP
how does one unmute discord?
ohhhhh panda
you're so close to setting it up
so close to getting me those sweet sweet benchmarks
and @untold geode bottom left side
of what
my entire discord is sound
mic & heaset icon
is not working
both dont have red lines through em
yep
this been going on for days
evryhtign els eworks
ima contact
poopie manual doesn't mention anything
how do i contact xd
wait discord app
just got my mamba elite in the mail
wireless keyboard; guy says "i dont like it it has no rgb keys"
law should allow us to shoot these kind of folk
why is a wireless keyboard a good idea
like, it's right in front of your pc
same with a wireless mouse
like why
just wire it and never have any issues
only reason i can see for a wireless kb/mouse is if you're using it to browse media on your tv or something
better mobility
and for that any old shitty $10 keyboard will do
what are u gonna be hot swapping 1 keyboard between 10 different computers
like why does your keyboard need mobility
it sits at a desk
you want to fight me over this?
yes im genuinely curious
bih, i'll take your socks away
i'll take whichever pair is your favorite
fuck
@unborn epoch figure it out? ;)
no :/
Never seen a 4 pin by an 8
there's nothing in the manual mentioning
Surely it doesn't want 24v lmao
It better be bios flashed it know to use my 9700k
crosses fingers
9900K using two 8-pins is crazy
She's coming up, cryptic 4 size font showing what the pins means
it isn't needed obviously
buildzoid did a video on Z390 motherboard which he said 2x8-pin for a cpu is pointless
New cooling https://imgur.com/gallery/yLHWhpn
Not the prettiest but cheap ;)
The only way I could get those cables out of the way is top mount
I stuck my cougar fans on it hope they do the job
The default fans are supposedly insanely loud
Didn't even test them lol
Ah all the motherboard lights were off in that pic
Installing Windows hehe
oh baby
damn it everyone was right
i can't wait for those benchmarks

thx buddy i was hoping that wasnt a swing and a miss
heh
naw that was good
and too true ๐ฆ
good thing no going back to 60hz for me ๐
I'm stuck at 60hz, but I don't really care right now
lmao okay
its not like a literal slug or anything but its like when a speck of dirt is on your monitor and u try to wipe it but it wont go away is the feeling
is 4K 60hz harder to run than 1440p 144hz?
majic, you got it running?
for gpu id imagine 4k since its just more pixels no?
and then a bit of a balance for 1440p 144hz
discord reinstalled
give me a bit geez! plus wifey is harassing me for family time
my time is 10:00pm

tell wifey she can have family time any other time
u just got your new pc parts in
DOES SHE NOT UNDERSTAND
tell her yagman needs benchmarks
i second this
i think i'd literally divorce my wife
if I couldn't have ONE NIGHT THAT IVE BEEN WAITING FOREVER FOR IN ADVANCE to myself
it's like, any other night/time
lmao
i feel like you're more upset about this than i am
a bit
im not kidding
size 4 font on what to use
and can't find instructions on power connector
nope
f that
im assuming u probably had to google-fu
Hey, If I ever get a PC or Laptop will y'all help me set it up?
thats what were here for ๐
also what does size 4 font mean like its not all listed on the mobo itself?
rip asrock
?
me?
Oh I don't know
Uh maybe just the software to get or stuff like that, the specs
u know what u wanna get
Nope
what do u wanna use it for
Yeah I know
But then again, I might not be buying the stuff so yeah, it's whatever
Yep
bring the BIGBUCKS
damnit my bench wasnt set up right
:/
hi
Don't think the times have been posted yet
Ah ok
Probably a day before the patch comes out
I'm worried they will Nerf the ke7 badly.
If anyone has any info on that please share it. Thanks very much.
they said they will increase the recoil for the KE7 so it can be hard to master @primal hill
i dont think i have moar FPS
@red ingot
i dont think im on the same driver, might be on the newer one
i was only on the game ready V one
really curious results though overall.. https://snag.gy/vauyiV.jpg
bottom is new, not sure why its all filled in like that
But the server CPUs are literally called EPYC
lol ok somethin is fooked with my benching..
๐ฆ
fixing my ram to 3000 from 2166 helped x_x

and making sure my GPU was clocked right, swear..tweaks tweaks
121fps vs 112 so far
$100 per FPS sounds about right ๐
ill be analyzing low fps more later
1% and 0.1% lows are more important to fix than the average fps
Yeah the 1% was broken to hell in my last test
I don't think it's right
Tons of frames registered exactly 30
I'm using fraps + frafs
Wait what
No difference in frames
What
@rose eagle
Re test
Fix yo shit
Well dm me your fixed results if u can
I'm heading off to bed soon
@red ingot not sure I'll see amazing results tbh
I mean I bet it's fixing some bad 100% usage but I never really slowed down in V
I really needed to have per map tons of data
I'll see what Rotterdam multiplayer does
That map eats my shit
As it stands I mean I wasn't expecting the world
Narvik is the worst for frames
Cpu tech has gone nowhere in 6 years lol
If you can OC your CPU to 4.3 or so it's close to a 9700k
But yeah I'll try to figure out min fps
All CPUs have done is factory OC and add cores
It may
Just be the engine
Ram speed made a HUGE diff
Like 25 fps was missing because my board defaulted my ram to 2166 instead of 3000
Well as in for better 1% and .1%
And holy shit 25fps is a LOT
My RAM is at 1600 rn...
I'll maybe try and see tomorrow if I can OC it a bit more
But damn even getting on a ddr4 board then might just help
I think the ram speed was just holding back the CPU
Not sure a 3770k on faster ram would do anything
:/
Well still, imo a 25fps increase is pretty significant
But I guess I'll wait for those benchmarks 
I mean that's from bad settings
So far I've only seen 9
Increase in high
Avg rather
๐ค
I'll still wait on those benchmarks
Dont ruin my optimism
For me its the 1%/.1% that matter the most
If I can run a steady 100fps I'm happy
Problem is I get dips down to like 30 :/
Ram speed doesnt affect intel cpus a lot
Going from 1600 to 2133 would be like 3% difference
@nimble tartan i think battlefield is just behind the curve and doesnt allow you to use mouse buttons
im in the same boat as you wanted to do push to talk and healing on my mouse but neither side button worked
I have 4 side mouse buttons and I can use them all. I have them bound to prone, heal gadget 1 and 2.
Try using your mouse software to rebind the mouse buttons to a keyboard stroke, then try and bind in game.
Yeah that's what I do, rebind the mouse buttons to a keyboard key and go from there
Iโm gonna sound like a pc noob here but itโs okay I am. Will I have a good amount of overclocking capabilities on a MSI B450 Tomahawk mobo with a Ryzen 5 2600?
Yea you can do 4ghz ez on that
Now an 8 core would be a different story
Also seems pretty dumb to have to do the mouse rebinding thing considering f2p games like smite don't require things like that
Theyโre pretty different, but Iโve been going back and forth on either a 1060 6g or the rx580 8g. The 1060 seems to perform better, but will 2g extra make any difference?
Makes sense. Thanks.
Anyone with Ryzen cpu(1700 preferably) can comment on dx12 performance. Tnx in advance
Hey I'm having some issue's with my mouse not appearing in Battlefield 4 at all, I've tried restarting Origin's and also repairing the game and none of that worked.
Check overlay's, an overlay might be eating your mouse.
@rich sinew
Along with, try exiting full screen with alt+enter and re-entering it.
Overlay's are funky, sometimes.
If i have BF4 open, and go to desktop, my mouse can go under the game.
If i click almost anywhere in desktop, It goes back in game.
I mean, on the second part, is that an issue?
My fullscreen games do that anyway.
So is the issue that you can't use your windows mouse in bfv for selecting things? or you just don't have a cursor period in bfv
Alrighty, mouse is working now with Alt+Enter. Don't know why i didn't try that before. XD
Dunno. Glad I could help, kind stranger.
I haven't even started the game before, and I'm out here helping troubleshoot
10/10.
(โ๏พโ๏พ)โ
I've been really enjoying BF4 lately, I see why people like it better than the newer one's now
BF4? Ehh, too slow for me, personally.
BF3 hit that sweet spot for me, and I thought BFV would be some more fast-paced gameplay, since I've heard it's the fastest yet, but y'know...not being able to even boot the damned game.
ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
I mean, I enjoy them all as well, but as with most games that come out yearly/semi-yearly, some of them get some things amazing, and some get others
if you want vehicles, you most certainly don't play an older bf
Now i'm having a crash
Uhhh. Let me check. Probably not, knowing EA.
I don't see any form of a reaccuring crash log, so no, there's no crash log.
Your only crash log is gonna be in Windows Event Viewer.
Take the error message that spits at you, and give that a google.
Windows Event Viewer > Application > Red !!! image, it will say BFV.exe somewhere at the bottom.
I see an Application Error
Yeah, duh, BFV is an application. At the bottom there will be a specific crash number, the most common one is 1000.
yup, Event ID: 1000
Thought so.
P. much the only thing I found when I googled that, since that's the same crash I have
Is that it's related to blocked access.
Something somewhere somehow is blocking BFV access to something
check all AV's, firewalls, etc.
Yeah, most likely.
Windows Defender has a habit of being dumb, at random times.
Make sure that's off.
And if it did crash, because of an antivirus, it probably also jacked whatever filed it blocked BFV access too.
And you'll need to repair, as a result.
There are 8 Battlefield 4 selection's.
