im a bit irritated, this happened before my new setup... just random hangups in windows like my monitor refresh is stalling
doesnt happen while gaming ever, just stupid ass windows slowing my rate to 60hz and lower
completely hitches sometimes
i think it may just be ever since i got my 2070 and started using dport + hdmi instead of dport + dvi-d

im using a 2070 with dp

chrome is not fine, fking open your task manager and watch your cpu usage with chrome open on any screen and moving your mouse all over and stop
and then close chrome and do the same

dont keep git stuff open unless you are doing stuff on them
rose eagle
thats like, a lot
i mean i dont "need" it open buts its my nice reminder to commit before i go to bed
sonic osprey
or git add . -> git commit -m "foo"
rose eagle
i use ST so my idiot designers and QA know how to use it
and i can relay what i know to them
sonic osprey
then later just git reset --soft HEAD~X and make meaningful messages before pr
rose eagle
nah im new school ;P
fk commands
im old but got with the times
not a hardcore C++ coder who refuses to push interface buttons lol
sonic osprey
yeah, I use gitkraken for most stuff but not the extra special stuff
rose eagle
soft head π
sonic osprey
yea, "git reset --soft HEAD~1" clears your last commit from the HEAD and leaves it uncommitted
sonic osprey
git reset --hard HEAD~1 clears the commit and does not leave the changes
pretty useful when squashing commits
git commit --amend, appends to the last commit you made, if you are working with a remote you need to do git push --force though
rose eagle
ive looked into git enough to know i dont want to do anything fancy yet
i only started using it 2 years ago and ive been coding for like 20 years lol

Yoyo, I got another hot question for peeps.
What do I do if an SSD is recognized fine by windows, but when you restart and attempt to boot from it...its not there???
I wanted to boot from it, and install windows 10 on it, but bleh.
I'll start up my recovery disk, and see if that recognizes the drive.
lofty light
You can't boot from a drive that doesn't have an os on it?
red ingot

If you've got a win 10 disk plugged in just boot from that and install on the drive, should work a treat
clear widget
help me with something i have a dumb ass skid question how will changing the HWID on my C: drive affect my pc considering windows is installed on C and its an SSD
gaunt dragon
I found what I was looking for. You just detach the HDD that is currently in use, boot from the recovery media, install, and apparently somewhere halfway through it will restart
And at that point I plug my hdd back in???
At least that's what I read.
red ingot
none, unless licenses are bound to your hwid, which rarely is the case.
- Hugs, nick
And yes @queen field

Got everything setup.
It's hilarious seeing my SSD drive usage vs. my HDD drive usage

70-80%

What settings are you playing on and resolution
sour ivy
Turn future frame rendering on
Helps on lower end systems
And lmk what kind of fps you get with that
primal tendon
Okay sec
sour ivy
No rush, just @ me when you know
primal tendon
Seems to have improved a little, but still doesn't seem to feel as smooth. Might just have to go for a new rig. Thanks man. @sour ivy
sour ivy
@primal tendon your CPU is a bit under the minimum specs
That's why you're lagging :)
Try lowering your res to 1050p
That might help a bit
You dont need a need gpu though
primal tendon
Alright man, thanks!
storm osprey
lowering resolution will put more stress on cpu
but a 1060 3gb isnt that great either
also the way it reads, i would turn off gpu limiting
but at the same time you only have 3gb of vram
so that might help or not
you have min specs except for the recommended gpu
so i would tax gpu the most you could
the problem is, we dont know what dice thinks min specs will give
is it just bootable?
or is that 30 fps at low?
primal tendon
What do you mean?
prime jasper
my cpu usage is at 90-100%, gpu is usually at 100% but it dips down and the game stutters quite a lot.
idk if my cpu is the bottleneck, or because i have a single 8gb stick of ram (bfv seems to run far faster with dual channel 16gb)
prime jasper
ryzen 5 1400, rx 570
i thought it'd be a good pairing
red ingot
Yeah bfv is super cpu intensive
prime jasper
i thought a ryzen cpu would be able to handle it
sour ivy
Not a 1400
red ingot
You need like a ryzen 7
prime jasper
i regret not going for a 1500x
red ingot
:(
prime jasper
wow bfv is really that expensive?
sour ivy
But a 1500x would run it
red ingot
I'm upgrading my cpu pretty much just for bfv
prime jasper
those youtube benchmarks are so misleading i see 1050tis and ryzen 3s running at 60fps
red ingot
Well u should run 60fps
sour ivy
Yep there are a lot of fake ones
red ingot
I just want my sweet sweet 144
sour ivy
You should run on close to 60
red ingot
sour ivy
Elosent, do you have ffr on
red ingot
Dx12 off
sour ivy
And hdr off
prime jasper
oh i do run at 60-80 on domination (and conquest when theres few people)
once im in a server with a ton of people i see a lot of stutter and it drops to 40
yeah i have ffr on dx11 no hdr
sour ivy
And motion blur off
prime jasper
yeah, although i dont know if that'd impact perf
red ingot
Not much
prime jasper
i'll try, but im 90% sure its my ram because i only get stutter when im in a highly populated server
bf1 used to run like butter before they started releasing dlc maps

thanks for the info guys

i'll try to mix and match

@prime jasper yeah but what are your other specs

have 16gb of ram, can 100% confirm i can have another game running while battlefield 4 is runs

I never went under 60 in bf1
prime jasper
GTX1070ti, Ryzen 7 2700x, 1080p 144hz monitor, blahblahblah
prime jasper
No
sour ivy
Or you mean just drops under 144
prime jasper
I get weird, stuttering, when I get low on RAM
I run a ton of background tasks while I play as well
sour ivy
Because I know 8gb isnt really enough for bf1 but never noticed stuttering in crowded areas
You should get some more ram to compliment those specs:)
prime jasper
Yeah, its due to everything I have open in the background as well, lol
I agree
I misordered my RAM kit when I was building my PC
I intended to get 16GB but rip

But it's crazy because I only added 4 more, yes ik it's not as efficient, but the 4 extra coated 15 more than the 8x2 kit I got 2 years before

wireless would bring compatibility problems right?

well if you got a good combination for headphones and seperate mic @storm osprey I'm more than happy to hear your suggestion
well the Nintendo Switch just doesn't work with the Flight for some reason
storm osprey
ehh, for 4 minutes

having said that, most bluetooth headsets work nowadays with the switch
storm osprey
budget?
red ingot
From @rose eagle : "Could a bluetooth or wireless headset possibly fix my 3.5mm output problem im having with my new motherboard and a high pitched whine?"
frozen orbit
however the headset also needs to have a 3.5mm jacket so I can use it whenever I'm using the Switch in handheld mode as well
say about 150 -175 euros

for ease of use id say get the pc 37x from sennheiser

I don't believe "slight" and "audiophile" go together
how can one be a "slight" audiophile
afaik you either are or aren't
storm osprey
im into audio gear
but dont care for the community
and dont believe in the products claims
and prices
storm osprey
iits such a slippery slope
my audio gear costs 350 total
which i think is the best bang for buck stuff
but people will spend thousands on a dac, and say it sounds "enter superfluous words here" and that its "completely changes the dynamics, day and night difference"
when nothing beyond 500 bucks does that
storm osprey
i just roll my eyes at a lot of stuff
red ingot
so like 500 CAD
storm osprey
roughly
schiit stack (schiit modi dac and schiit magni amp) with sennheiser 6xx headphones
red ingot
damn
storm osprey
6xx is basically universally agreed upon as the best bang for buck headphones at 200 bucks
red ingot
ah
storm osprey
schiit stack is in competition for best bang for buck amp/dac
so i appreciate audio, but im not pompous and wont spend money on "true audiophile gear"
red ingot
makes sense
like those people that buy $1000 hdmi cables
that do the same thing as the $2 ones
π
storm osprey
exactly
but the problem is, audio is mostly preference
and perceived
theres not a lot to measurements for audio
storm osprey
so its a lot of "i think this sounds this"
there is
but everyone hears different
ear shape
canal shape
seal for headphones
theres a lot to it
and what is ideal sound signature, is boring for a lot
red ingot
yeah i suppose
storm osprey
since that would be a flat frequency response
red ingot
i guess there is definitely a lot of perception
cause i guess u can "measure" but how everyone perceives that "measurement" is different
storm osprey
and then theres the matter of the kind of music you listen to, how its mixed, your source, etc
i wear glasses, so i technically lose bass compared to people who dont
storm osprey
they break the seal
scenic gorge
i gotta stop wearing glasses then

Hi all. I've encountered problem with my streaming. Just upgrade my 8700k to the 9900k and for some reason I'm experiencing 20-40% frame drop in SLOBS the second I hit 'go live'. My bitrate is 6000 and I stream output at 900p. I've done this for months, and have never dropped frames ever. I have a Gigabyte Aorus gaming 7 that I updated the bios on so everything should be fine. My cooler is the Kraken X62. Can anybody help me out?
red ingot
might be the software you're using
like no issues on the 8700k but you have issues on the 9900k?
red ingot
storm osprey
@dark night @rose eagle says youre problems are probably due to heat
red ingot
thanks @rose eagle
dark night
@red ingot correct, the 8700k ran like a friggin champ. the 9900k falls on its face. i thought i would be fine leaving everything at default with this big ass cooler?
red ingot
that's super odd
and what do you mean everything at default? like no oc?
if you had your 8700k overclocked but run your 9900k at stock then you may see a decrease in perf
dark night
my 8700 was running on factory settings, the 9900k is factory settings as well ( no oc)
i just thought it would be a simple install, and drop hopefully 20ish % in cpu. but nope lol

I just updated today
latent light
same as amazon
rose eagle
They do exchanges but I'm pretty sure it's the board
I found another guy exact same issue
So RMA means I'm out a PC for a damn week?
I tried to get on Newegg chat earlier and was literally 238 in queue lol
Shit you not
prime jasper
Newegg & Amazon are a no-go atm
They are still backed up due to Black Friday, if you order anything or need to contact support, you'll have a week delay most likely for shipping, & several hours wait for support
All you can do, at this point
I'm ordering some PC parts in 2 weeks next time I get paid, hopefully they'll be back at 100% by then
More RAM, new cooler for CPU so I can OC it safely, possibly a 2nd monitor, etc.
rose eagle
@plain vessel yes anything plugged into my 3.5 or even front jack I get high pitched whine and it gets worse with higher CPU usage
It's insanely shitty
I ended to plugging it into my audio out on my monitor
Not sure I can hear a difference but for a $240 board I'm pretty pissed
If everyone had this problem it should be all over so maybe there's a flaw only in some no idea
I think I read someone tried an RMA with no luck

I play on oce, I keep getting the "latency variation" icon popup but ping is around 40 any ideas to fix this ?

Has anyone had any problems downloading with Origin?
Download keeps pausing, or losing progress, tried it on all 3 of my drives and still nothing.
red ingot
Clear your origin cache
I dont have a link cause I'm on mobile but google it
U gotta delete some files manually to do it kinda dumb
gaunt dragon
From a fast Google search: Hold down the Windows key and R. Type in "%ProgramData%" (without quotes) and click OK. Now open theOriginΒ folder.Β DeleteΒ all the files and folders in theΒ OriginΒ folder, except for LocalContent (do notΒ deleteΒ this one)
Restart, itll download them all again, and you just cleared origin's cache.
Not PC, but origin, for clarity.

Errrgggghhh
rose eagle
completely log out and back in?
swift breach
I haven't had a fresh install in like 3 years

Nah fuck that, i just havent done a wipe since i got my 1070

Quick question, I bought a monitor that has some βquestionableβ pixels. Theyβre not dead (black) pixels and they arenβt exactly stuck (or a different color than the rest of the pixels) pixels. Should I still RMA it or just keep it?

Anyone else having their FPS locked at 60, despite having chosen a higher cap?
gaunt dragon
Sounds like v-sync.
pastel sierra
Have it turned off
gaunt dragon
G-Sync may do the same thing.
Also, some graphics cards have a built in FPS lock, so you can see if that's a thing.
As in, an adjustable one, normally with some kinda Manufacuterer program. MSI afterburner, etc.
pastel sierra
Don't have G-sync available on my monitor, so it can't be that. I have a 1080 from MSI, I can't imagine it having a built-in lock

@gaunt dragon Please change you name to something phonetic
gaunt dragon
I cant tell if you're being serious or not
I'm not gonna change my name from this, because you want me too.
I like my Geno name.

If anyone has suggestions, I'm still looking for a wireless headset suitable for both PS4 and Switch π

Galaxy S10 leak looks really nice
gaunt dragon
So, I got my new i5
BFV runs like a dream.
60fps on low, pretty easily.
Thanks to the community who sat with me through my shit processor not being able to handle the game <3

i5-3470, GTX 750Ti: 60-75fps in game, 50-60fps in main menu.

I wonder if there will be any room for optimization in bfv. Does anyone know about this?
red ingot
I think we're all hoping for some optimization :(
noble steeple
@winged tapir But is it 144Hz?
noble steeple
God i wish i'd have enough room for anything larger than 24"
winged tapir
I have currently a 21:9 π
red ingot
I went from 24 to 27 and it's awesome

gaunt dragon
this is tech, do you also talk about tech issues with bfv here
or is that more a #battlefield-legacy-titles
wicked wren
Is this normal that breakthrough games have worst performance than conquest?
rose eagle
@gaunt dragon CPU was the culprit then? ;)
gaunt dragon
Yes, it was. Easily in game at 60-75 FPS at all times, now.
It's also on my SSD, so load times are really fast.
rose eagle
I mean.. I knew all along but confirmation is nice
rose eagle
gaunt dragon
if not, i'll totally bring my always having issues ass over to #battlefield-legacy-titles
rose eagle
All tech problems here,!
rose eagle
Even broken hue lighting
gaunt dragon
With 2 other people.
And I dunno if this is common, but this is the second time this has happened
rose eagle
What's that look like lol
gaunt dragon
finish game > get sent to loading screen with current squad > stuck in loading with current squad forever
I actually waited 15 minutes, just to make sure I wouldn't load in
rose eagle
Poop, I only play breakthrough and never have issues
gaunt dragon
I just played breakthrough, I think
The big gamemode, with a tank on it, I'm just playing to test :P
rose eagle
You with a squad set up outside of game?
gaunt dragon
I'm actually gonna learn all the things tomorrow, with my GF, like I promised her
rose eagle
Or just the squad the game puts you in
rose eagle
And they all waited too??
gaunt dragon
I dunno, I couldn't open chat.
But I saw chat messages alerting
so, they could chat
gaunt dragon
???
Why would I not load in twice
out of 4 games now
that's 50% my guy
small sample size ofc
but 50% nonetheless
gaunt dragon
Naw, I saw the BFV cinematic backround, saw all the UI, saw the loading circle in the top right spinning away
red ingot
pandaaaaaaaaa
gaunt dragon
I could open friendlist, I could open invite screen, just not chat.
rose eagle
@red ingot
rose eagle
You're not the only person... With a whole new rig has to be something in common with others
Just trying to determine if the other squad mates were in game and only you were stuck
red ingot
yeah i mean they say they've fixed the server issues but it sure doesn't seem like it...
gaunt dragon
The only info I have for you, is that when I opened the friends list, they were listed on the right, and all of our names were green
dunno if that means anything
or just that we're in a squad
rose eagle
I've never encountered this in like 100 games so it's weird if it's all server related
red ingot
i think it is
gaunt dragon
No, as in, the pan around the field for the specific map I was playing on.
It was caught trying to change rounds.
rose eagle
Guess I'm lucky 
red ingot
yeah
rose eagle
Or my insane high end tech kills bugs
red ingot
like some people are still having the infinite game bug - where the match never ends (confirmed server side issue)
rose eagle
red ingot
although they said they fixed that, but it was more of a they reduced the occurrence of that happening
and also been on some servers where it's just been laggy as hell and i've had to leave - and ive had a perfectly normal ping (<100)
as in rubberbanding/bad latency, not fps
rose eagle
Unfortunately seems clear there's no answer for the black loading. 50% sucks but keep on chugging lol
Patch in 4 days
red ingot
methinks DICE/EA is just cheaping out on the servers..
rose eagle
So much destruction
red ingot
what
rose eagle
Can't raise hz
rose eagle
BF servers are prob the most expensive of all fps games
red ingot
yeah
but that's what i mean, wouldn't surprise me if they tried to cheap out a bit
and thus why it's not running properly
game failing to sync all the stuff to the server
rose eagle
I can see how there'd be some nasty bugs failing to load people in
red ingot
yeah
rose eagle
That's a timing issue
red ingot
still something that needs fixin
rose eagle
Callbacks, client ready, waiting
It literally could be I've never seen it due to hardware
rose eagle
Except now my audio is fubar
red ingot
heh
rose eagle
I can't hear it while gaming but I know it's there...
red ingot
should've gotten the asus board
rose eagle
But this one so pretty
prime jasper
Has anyone had issues with BFV freezing and crashing with no error message? i know a lot of people were having this with BF1 and directX. but i had never had issues till meow
red ingot
game just freezes and crashes randomly?
prime jasper
yea, happens every 2nd or 3rd game it seems
prime jasper
ill run it again and get a screen shot of temps when it crashes next,
are there any crash logs i could check? not sure if it would give any info since it crashed with no errors
red ingot
im not sure tbh
prime jasper
me either, i rolled back my GPU OC to see if that would help fix any issues and lowered everything from High/ultra and did not change much
prime jasper
Just the game freezes up. Mouse cursor shows up and can be moved around, after a 5-*10 sec freeze just closes and everything else is fine
only seems to happen in BGV
BFV*&
BF1 runs great with no issues
drivers are up to date
swift breach
Both on the same drive?
prime jasper
yup
im going to post some screen shots of my event viewer maybe this could shed some light?
prime jasper
damn, i cannot post SS
swift breach
Pretty sure CPU Z has a history setting
so you can see how things changed over the last X minutes
prime jasper
HMMM i dont think i have that?
prime jasper
yea i just googled it, ill have to get that on here
so i have been running BFV again and CPU is running at 27c and GPU 64c
so not so bad right now
i did find application errors in the Even Viewer ill have to read more into them when the next crash occures and see if they are the same

whats gpu temp?
prime jasper

red ingot
He said 64
prime jasper
GPU is at 63
red ingot
Still that's like practically ambient
Like ambient + 5ish (depending on what your room temp is lol)
long sphinx
nah 63 is load level temp
