fiber coverage is terrible, fiber only covers around 10% of the usa lmao
When its suppose to be 100% shhh
DSl has 90% and Cable has like 89%
@latent light Contact CL and demand they check this thoroughly:
I don't see how.
802.11ax is coming and I'm not even on 5.0ghz 
And yeah if you dont live somewhere with shit networking then a VPN wont help
@latent light Unless you have really old ADSL that checks for activity and times you out then "re-dials" when you need it.
It can help if your ISP makes you do way more hops than required to access servers by routing the connection through a country with much better infrastructure
whenever someone else in my house is using the internet to watch youtube videos or scroll through facebook, my internet gets so bad that I can't do anything on it lol
it used to not be like that
@steep gust That wouldn't matter, still the same hops to a site provider, just tunneled.
@latent light File a compliant with the FCC and your ISP will figure it out 
we tried complaints they just told us we live in a bad area
who can tell me how to fix so i dont have to turn on the kill feed everytime? π
Someone help ples
One part of task manager is saying i'm using 8.6Gb of ram
But adding up what everything is using in the list
It cant be
Hidden processes?
And it keeps on going UP
Malware?
There's been literally zero chances of malware getting on this shet
There is never a zero chance.
Unless steam counts as malware
I'd check that you don't have a rogue service running, any hidden processes, and run a virus scan--there are plenty of free trial clients out there if you don't have one.
Windows defender to the rescue
Doesn't hurt to boot into safemode and check the processes from there as well and what adds up.
Make sure you msconfig and check to see if there are any strange startup items.
memory leaks also exist
They do, but 8Gb is pretty extreme.
@narrow fable There is some ware that can hide in your memory--not sure Windows Defender will catch that.
Yes, Chrome eats a metric shitton of memory.
You can see what is using memory
I have Opera and it's using 4Gb right now.
I used Opera until it was bought
I've been using it since probably right after it first came out. Consistently, it's what I load on each machine.
Remember kids, if the product is free YOU are the product
That 'free' VPN is a lot more shady when some random company now owns it
I just run Chrome with the same set of extensions as I did on Opera
Why I cant complete this chellenger, "Complete the chapter without repair" in the 1 Act of The Last Tiger. I try it +10 times!
PC
I delete the cache of Origin and reinstall the game 2 times.
And, Under No Flag, I have complete this story. But In my Profile -> Award -> Medals -> Warstories, say I dont have Finish Under No Flag, In the medal Freedom Star ¬¬
I talked with the EA Support, but they can't help me to fix it.
I upload the screenshots in #screenshots-and-clips
anyone know of any mechnical keyboards that are quiet
like brown or red quiet? @latent light
then prob anything with browns or mx silents
i got razer green switches, they are really loud
MX Silent red is the quietest switch type @latent light

MX Brown with o-rings is close but not the same
Although it will feel slightly mushy I guess from the added dampening
after using mechanical keyboards, membrane keyboards feel like someone put jelly under the keys and it feels awkwardly squishy lol
razer green and cherry mx blue are the loudest aren't they
dunno
damn, all switches are still pretty loud, even the cherry mx silent red
yeah that is just part of the design
silent red is about 5 decibels quieter than blue
think i need a new mouse more than a keyboard anyway
my deathadder is 3 years old, the side buttons are double clicking

yeah 70dBa is crazy loud
Like I doubt the accuracy of that
aka your keyboard would be louder than a speaker
the 70 dBa is from the spacebar
spacebar is definitely louder than the other keys lol
at least it is on my keyboard
better choice
Hello, QQ if anyone has a moment
my friend got a i5-8600K for $120 on facebook marketplace @steep gust
now watch it be a poorly binned

Ask it to Santa π
hi, i have a problem and and i wanna know if any of you have the solution, a week ago a discover that with dx12 i obtain the same fps boost of dx11 with ffr on, basically the same perfomance but with 0 input lag, the thing is that when i put the dx12 , the game start nice and then after 3 minutes the game goes from 80-120 to 20 stuck
so it randomly caps to 20 fps?
yeap
@red ingot Its not hard
Spend years making a youtube channel, build up a successful following, then get sponsors ez
I know channels with like 50,000 subs that got 2+ 2080TIs from companies like EVGA
and got a 9980XE from Intel, etc
I just want companies to send me free water cooling stuff 
does youtube monetization start at like 10,000 subs?

And yeah u need 1000 subs and like 10,000 watch hours a month or something
Its stupidly hard now
even then, do you make much if you BARELY made that cut?
no
but still
$$$ is $$$
say u get like, $50/mo of passive income
enough to buy 1 game / month
free game
π
nah you just need to do something crazy once and get companies to sponsor you from there
you could do tech "reviews"
wink wink
this video sponsored by intel. GUYS CHECK OUT THIS COOL SHIT goes to read script off camera
tech tubers are just more entertaining advertisements now
are you guys excited for the new tsk change tomorrow?
AMD is making a 200,000 core 7nm Epyc CPU that's going to cost $42 million

well, it's really 3,125 of their new 64-core Epyc CPUs put together on the same system

Where, I can't see it?
That's the joke
this, if you gonna have a see-through case, do some cable management
oh and are those 2 AIO's you have put in same loop 
Hi guys, is this also the right place to ask questions regarding Star Wars Battlefront 2? I am facing an strange input issue in the keymappings for starfighters and because Battlefront 2 uses a version of Frostbite, maybe You could help me out?!
When in the options menu, assigning the mouse x-axis fails on the function "roll right / left". When doing so, both input fields on the right side stay blank. But when trying to reassign the axis to another function, a modal pops up, telling me it is already in use. Unfortunately because the assignment is not visible to me, I cannot delete the key mapping, like it is used to be.
When playing the next strange thing happens. Only the roll right function works. When moving the mouse to the left, nothing happens.
Another detail I could recognize, was in the config file "ProfileOptions_profile_synced". When assigning the x-axis to "rolling left / right" a mapping is added, which has not been there before:
GstKeyBinding.Vehicle.ConceptMoveLR.7.axis 0
GstKeyBinding.Vehicle.ConceptMoveLR.7.button 8
GstKeyBinding.Vehicle.ConceptMoveLR.7.negate 0
GstKeyBinding.Vehicle.ConceptMoveLR.7.type 0
By default, there are 7 "ConceptMoveLR" keybindings (numbered from 0 to 6). When binding the x-axis to rolling, another one is added. And this one seems to be missing its corresponding entry to roll left, I suppose.
Hope anyone of you can help me with this issue, cuz as a Battlefield pilot, I cannot used to the different controls, which are set by default.
Thx in advance and regards
@latent light @sonic osprey Oh trust me I've done cable management (there's no PSU shroud so the ugly cables at the bottom are an eyesore). But yeah it's two AIO's with quick release thingies, it's real nice
@warped flax probs have better luck on the BF2 discord mate, I and probs a lot of others aren't familiar with it :/
@lofty light Yeah, the psu cables could use a some sort of wrapper to wrap all your necessary cables in one tight package going to back of the case, the aio cables can't be customized by width so thats unlucky, I left some slack on my res->cpu cable to maybe fit waterblock on gpu as well and its not that nice at the moment
cant post pics :(
dont mind the sata cables coming through, just temporarily to have my old hdds to copying
Ah noice! π
@latent light thx, I will do so. But maybe one You can help me anyway.
Cheers
Noice

That's not noice
I had to fall back to my 1060 because my 1080 broke, and now my 2080Ti is overheating 
LOL
2080ti isnt worth it
honestly
its just a huge waste of money
Ive spent on myself this Christmas over $900
Seeming as its my first xmas alone without living with my parents
Air force life

@lofty light what kind of temps you are getting with the cpu+gpu combo with those liquid coolings? I have like ~62C 90-100% loads on my msi gaming trio 2080, and 71C on 9900k running 100% load. CPU on custom loop, msi trio just the regular fans
I was getting thermal throttling actually, just spent the better part of the night looking into why
Gonna run a timespy stress test with the loops separated
I mean if they have different pump speeds it might cause issues
depending on how they handle that
Looks like that might be causing some of it, that or I put them together wrong
I would assume the loop is filled close to maximum capacity
The GPU was idling at 67C but now is idling at 35C
These connectors are idiot proof with that, they're male-female plugs
and in rads too?
It's my CPU I'm somewhat worried about though
Yeah they're AIO's with quick connects
So I don't touch those π
hehe, setting the custom loop was fun
put the fitting once wrong way to the tube and noticed only after had to tighten it, also carefully checking the direction all the time
Oof RIP
I haven't seen it get to 50C on the GPU yet in stress tests π
I think it's fixed, at least for now π
well, I had not put any water in to the system yet, so no rip, just had to spend time trying to get the tube out of the socket, they sure are tight even without the fittings
or caps what they call them
i bought a new PC , 2070 , but my monitor is still an old 60hz samsung , feelsbadman
that's no feelsbadman
a real feelsbadman is having an i5-6400 and then intel software locks the 8th gen to 300 chipset motherboards
going from 940M laptop to 2070 rtx, m2 ssd, i5-9600k , feelsgoodman
fuck intel
keep on fucking people like me over by deliberately making things incompatible
if you have relatively old cpu+mobo+ram, you might still need to upgrade all those if you want to get any benefits, ie the mobo might not work with faster ram etc, it might not supply enough power
I mean isn't that a kind of cop out answer by intel because you can stick a 9900k on the cheapest z370 and maybe not oc but useable with ddr4 3000mhz but a z270 Maximus mobo can't hold an 8400
@lofty light download msi afterburn it will make your fans go faster an u can customize it to what fan speeed
@prime jasper pretty sure he has a custom loop
oh he dose
What do you think about RX 3080? Do you think it will be that cheap as someone mentioned?
3080 is just a place holder name
liquid cooling with cum
we talked about this already
You have my interest Ricardo.
I feel like we did discuss it
Also does anyone have the nzxt h700i
It looks sexy
And apparently it's good
But idk
I want a new case
Anyone have a really good 4k monitor they'd recommend?
I am looking at this one atm
@red ingot we did
@prime jasper i wouldnt recommend 4k in general, i would rather get 27" 1440p 144hz and gsync
Those are so expensive tho wtf
if you have an amd card you can get freesync
but freesync or gsync is a game changer
i could go back to a lower resolution, but i couldnt lose gsync
G-sync makes monitor price go up by like $100
freesync doesn't cost anything to implement
amd doesnt have a suggestable high end
vega 64 competes with 1080, but theres drawbacks
GTX 1060 is the most popular graphics card, AMD has the RX 580 which performs the same but costs around $30-50 less
it actually performs slightly better across a game average
yeah it does lol
and since we are on bf chat, it performs WAY better in bfv
we talking like 20 frames
Nvidia is a little better in games that use the unreal engine like fortnite
yeah AMD cards work much better in Battlefield games
the thing is, AMD doesn't really need to make a graphics card to compete with the RTX 2080 Ti
since like only 0.2% of the consumer market goes for the super high-end cards
what about them
I need a good one
Corsair air 540.
if AMD keeps competition in the low to mid-range market, they can take up a lot of market share
@red ingot fractal design meshify c
around 70% of the PC consumer market uses mid-range, 20% on the low-end and ~10% on the high-end
if AMD drops its next gpus that the leaks have suggested, people would be batshit stupid to buy nnvidia
people still would though
idiots
because people don't do research
ill say it now
fucking ignorant morons
ray tracing isnt a thing, dont pay an extra 150 for it when you can get the same perf
rx 3080 being 350 and 2070 being 500
I asked why this dude got a GTX 1060 when he could of got a RX 580 for $50 cheaper
he said "because AMD can't compete with the 1080 Ti"
fucking brainlets man
I prefer Nvidia and Intel and I rather stick with it.
but it BEATS a 1060
oh i have preferences as well, doesnt mean im throwing raw numbers out of the window
if they are comparable perf with comparable prices, ill go with i prefer
but im not paying 20% more for the same performance
Sure, Nvidia costs a shit bucket more but I personally prefer it because of my experiences with aaayyyymd.
i dont agree, but at least you have a reason and im not gonna argue that
AMD graphics drivers have been top notch recently, Adrenalin 18.12.2 driver last week gave users anywhere from 3% to 10% higher performance lol
but id imagine amd isnt gonna get what they deserve just because of ignorant people
in general compute, a Vega 64 is equal or better than a 1080 Ti
i have the model that came before
the define c
only difference afail is mesh front intake and tempered glass side panel
fractal design stuff is solid
well thought out stuff
Get thermaltake view 71 TG
175 BUCKS....
But hellacool
nah
Does he eh
is sexy bitch
hi
though i came from a full tower all metal case from 2000 so π
oh hai
BFV fixed yet?

holy shit this is the buggiest win10 install I've ever done, and it's a fresh install
avoid 1809 like the plaggguee
i completely missed TTK changes since PoE league hit ;P
also missin the new content and unlocks
ttk went higher, 1 bullet more to kill, smg at range was 2 on some guns
lol
i liked it, but a lot of the vocal community hated it
it didn't fix the TTD problems so the TTK increase was pointless
idk if it was intended to FIX the ttd, but alleviate it and change the scales of how the game is played
most of the community want a battlefield that plays like BF3 or BF4
pulling in anyone new at this point is futile, just rebuild the original player base and wait for franchise to die out
or make a new game off Frostbite targeting kids
im not sure what dice was thinking, and i know the community doesnt know what they want
marketing.. ok so we got word we need to try not to piss off the old player base while trying to grab all the people playing Fortnite and Battle Royale. Go!
hell, people dont even know the differences between high and low ttk
and thats fine
not til you start slinging around words and changes
but dont argue like you do know
they changed something and i still suck.. this was a bad change!! π
high ttk increases importance on accuracy and takes away from "who sees who first basically wins", and camping
so you can imagine who was mad
does anyone else get more stable fps on medium
than low
i feel like i get a higher max fps on low, but more stable play on medium
that would make sense
battlefield is the same as cod
old playerbase leaves as all the new kids flood in
mw2 made a lot of the original playerbase leave but a shit ton of new players came
cod 4 was considered the best in terms of balance and competitive gameplay
Rip cod4
people say mw2 was the best but the game was broken
it felt too rng and people abused power weapons
such as grenade launchers, akimbo model 1887s and the ACR
I get stable 144 fps on Ultra
Tho, the Frostbite Engine is pretty well optimized
Mostly

I still wonder how the devs got the game working with RTX if it's the only thing filling up my CPU with junk
RX 580 gets around 10% higher performance than a GTX 1060 6GB in both BF1 and BFV
It's not even useful in MP
you got a RTX 2080 or a 2080 Ti?
Neither
But Nvidia is still like "Sure, your game looks like the first BF in terms of textures, but will you look at those nicely reflecting puddles of water"
Does anyone have any advice on what to do
If a cat chews through your fibre optic data cable?

Buy a new cable?
Well you aren't going to repair a fiber optic cable.
As its a proprietary cable that they don't produce anymore
shet
Time to get creative
I mean you can repair the cable, but it has to be pretty cleanly done or the cable won't work.
These are new cats
The latest models
And there are two of them
I'm blaming the god damn guy who installed it
If he didn't leave a hanging bit they wouldn't have attacked it in the first place
I'm resisting poorly to make comments about musk
You can make comments about me all you want

TΓs a free country
If the country you're in is free
If its not
Eh
i like this guy
Uh no, I don't think you understand what I meant
I meant lewd comments about "musky huskies."

yβall think itβs worth saving up for a 2080ti?
rocking a 1080ti with 8700k i7 now
no
its really not
its like a 20% perf increase vs 1080ti
for 100% of the price (aka double)
Xxl
saving up for something like that is not really worth it, buy if you can afford
and by afford I mean it wont matter in your budget if you buy 1 or 2 2080ti
That's silly logic
So for a millionaire it wouldn't matter if a house cost 10 or 20 million
well it matters, but ofc you dont spend your entire budget on buying it
ofc it is also totally different if you are buying 2x 10m houses or just 1x 10m house for 20m
unless you really want rtx or dlss, yeah, not really worth it
(and dlss doesn't look too great atm, at least in FFXV: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jpd5j5W1NZw)
well "worth" is always about the thing, how much is it "worth" to you
yeah, true
if you want the best, buy 2080ti
if you are on a budget and want good perf buy 1080ti (maybe used)
its like, you can buy $2k or $100k car, both will do the same, but still I would guess most would want to drive the $100k car
definitely
note though that, while this doesn't invalidate your point, the person in question is upgrading from a 1080 Ti
so they're already at the very high end
true
it's like upgrading from an HD800 to an HD800S (in headphones)
but still upgrade is an upgrade, and selling the 1080ti would maybe make the 2080ti cost "half"
sure, it might be worth it to some, but in most cases, eh
not sure how good the resale value of a used 1080 Ti is atm
could be pretty high actually
since the cards are slowly starting to run out
Not sure about dollar prices, but used 1080ti are like 500e here, dont quote me on that though
checked quickly few 500-600e, so kinda steep for used one
what do you consider high-end?
there are lots of mid-level cards around that tdp that would've been high end some years ago
hmm, actually nvm, finding conflicting information
one article showed rx 570 at ~150w during gaming, another one says 300
Just raise the power limit of the Vega 56, you can get that thing chugging 400W
π
We modded an AMD RX Vega 56 card to outperform the RTX 2070 with some powerplay table mods. Support GN & buy the new limited edition shirt: https://store.gam...
RX 570 uses up to 150 watts, total system power draw is 300 watts
I wanna see gtx 1080 ti performance with 150 watts or less some day
i am waiting for amd to release some new cards hopefully compareable to between 2070 / 2080
Probs be around 2070 specs, that'd be the step up from Vega
@north crow DLSS was never 'for the looks'
Yeah, it's more for the performance
And an RX570 wont draw 300w unless you mod the power limit
Yeah, GrimAce mentioned that was the total system power draw a few messages later
DLSS tbh isnt worth it
Just make normal AA use tensor cores ez
@crude storm Navi is going to be more of a budget refresh and not trying to compete with Turing in performance
More for price to performance
Does overclocking your RAM to the advertised speeds using XMP/D.O.C.P shorten itβs life expectancy significantly?
I also assume itβs voided my warranty but i donβt exactly care too much lol
Nothing like having to reinstall windows two days in a row
Clean windows 10 install, install Radeon drivers, blue screen, stuck with repair loop. Back to Nvidia.
@opaque sapphire not that i have ever heard of

π©

yes
Did u
no
Did u just lie to me
i tricked you
yes

F
you get a free discord nitro to gift if you did hypesquad thing
which you did
so find someone to trade with
Wat
go to library, and gift inventory
its in there
but apparently you cant gift it to yourself even if it says you can
so just find someone else with it and trade
@analog linden probably a faulty card if anything
i remember having to RMA my GTX 770 few years back when I got it, took 3 weeks for Newegg to send another
thats when you go to your local frys electronics and get a card and return it before 30 days
closest hardware store to me is MicroCenter in Dallas but that's like 20 miles away
Iβm giving it another chance because I hate sending shit back, especially with a restocking fee(newegg)
Vega 64 like a day. It was running too hot, Iβm gonna try undervolting it again
also, I HIGHLY recommend using DDU to uninstall/reinstall GPU drivers
Because it kept overheating
is it a reference card with blower cooler?
Yeah, I know itβs gonna run hot, but it was throttling like crazy within minutes
could be bad paste
If undervolting doesnβt work again I will send it back
I hope it's not one of the ASRock or MSI blower style coolers, they suck ass on Vega because those brands cheaped out on them
only good reference cooler is the one straight from AMD
Itβs the amd variant. Visually itβs so good looking though
usually a reference Vega 64 will max out around 80-85C
no higher than that
also I can interest you in a good aftermarket gpu cooler from noctua
Problem with that is it throttles at 85
but i think it's the paste
It could be, but Iβm not dedicated to keeping the card
reference Vega 56 stays much cooler than a reference Vega 64
I think the 64 shouldn't have blower style
I upgraded from a 1060 TI, I will probably just go back to that if this doesnβt work
Yeah 
you mean 1060 6GB?
Yes 
anyway, if you want to put a beastly cooler on your Vega 64, look up RAIJINTEK Morpheus II
also, what are your idle temps
if you're up for it
you could buy this and replace the reference cooler
you will see about a 10-15C drop in temperatures
maybe even more
it doesn't look as cool as the AMD reference cooler though

one important thing is to download the new Adrenalin 18.12.2 driver
it automatically drops your voltage for you
Yeah I had those, same issue
how do you uninstall your gpu drivers?
sometimes when you uninstall a driver there is still traces of it left that can conflict with new ones
which is why I use DDU to get rid of everything to do with the driver
well i have played the game fine since release , but today i cant load into any game , it loads me in from the manu . but then kicks me back to the manu
is anyone running a ryzen 7 2700x paired with a 1080ti and high speed ddr 4 ram? (3000hz and higher). What are you getting for average fps on both 1080 and 1440p (ultra). my frame rates fluate like crazy..going from 143 down to 100 seemingly in an instant. its bizarre
I got a Ryzen 5 1600 and RX 580, get around 90 fps with occasional dips to 80 on ultra settings at 1080p
also matter what dx
for me there was a huge difference
way more fps on dx12
but i get some stutters randomly, but they arent common and dont last long
min FPS will be much better on dx12 if your CPU is godlike
Ryzen 7 should do better on DX12 than DX11
i went from 70-120 to 100-140 going from 3770k OCd to 4.3ghz to 9700k
actually sorry, i had 80fps min still after 9700k til i put it on dx12
and you need to try ahead frame rendering on and 1 frame if you're going to try dx12
Will an upgrade from an i5 7600k to an i7 7700k yield better performance?
I have a 1070, SSD, and 16gb ram
Currently with my i5 my frames suffer at times
bfv is pretty core hungry
7700k is still 4c8t right?
7600k is 4c4t
it will help, but idk if it would be worth it
bfv really wants 6 cores
What intel cpu would you recommend then
I have a 200 series Mobo tho
whatever has 6 cores
Asrock z270
you will see a boost in min FPS going from 6700k to 7700k
but imo doesnt really warrant it..
you could look up bechmarks and see if its worth it for you
may as well just upgrade the whole PC at that point
i just sold my 3770k rig for $300
with an old ti560 in it lol, just so it would boot
yep
yes, 6cores need more power
200 series motherboards can push enough power to 4 cores
But if Iβm gonna upgrade Iβd need to upgrade my cpu and my mobo
To a 6 core newer gen cpu
yes and rams
depends on the speeds
depends
I have 16gb dual channel running at like 3000
youre fine
Ddr4 I think
ok then you are fine
Ah okay. Iβd need to save up anyways
supposed to be a game changer
even if its not, intel will react
dropping prices on 9th gen
I have my doubts on the next gen amd
True. Iβm just hoping I donβt need to drop like 600 bucks on upgrades.
On just a CPU and mobo. Was hoping to get a newer gpu like a 1080ti
you can get away with cheaper mb
I dropped ~3k euros to my setup this year 
that helps with cost
usually mini are cheaper, and asrock usually good for price and cheaper
hows your experience with asrock?
Yeah thatβs why I love em. Itβs been great
ive havent actually used one in a build yet
I bought 2 of their mobos and i havenβt had any problems
ill probably get them for my next upgrade
i returned my ASRock z390, it had feedback of the cpu through the sound card
i still need to test the new bluetooth on my asus z390-e to see if it blows up my PC during rocket league
like the ASRock did
my ASRock z77 Extreme4 worked flawlessly but man that Taichi and the sound card issue, f that
thats why people recommend external amp and dacs
or just buy a good board
π
ive never heard anyone recommend anything other than the onboard besides the one time in here
in like 25 years of power pc usage
well, after we stopped having to use actual sound cards from turtle beach and soundblaster
audiophiles will never recommend onboard audio
hell, they even hate using pcie soundcards
Because audiophiles are horrible people
most yes
well shit, windows update fucked my pc
but they have some logic behind a lot
but at the same time a lot of things are just not audible OR you have to learn the difference
now everytime I boot my graphics card fans run at 100% and it's so loud that I can't even hear myself talk
@latent light
windows is great isnβt it

A driver reinstall fixed the temps, but I'm returning it for a GTX 1070ti now. 

I've got all my fans at 100% non stop 
Still quiet as a mouse because Maglev 
Corsair Maglev fans
Yeah I got five of them and now I'm poor
But I like perf over quiet anyway so π€·
yeah
hm
good thing i found u
i was waiting for these to go on sale:
https://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835181131&Description=corsair rgb fan&cm_re=corsair_rgb_fan-_-35-181-131-_-Product
Btw the Corsair RGB controller is godawful
but they are the same price as the ones that you linked:
https://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835181135&Description=corsair magnetic&cm_re=corsair_magnetic-_-35-181-135-_-Product
except the ones you linked have higher CFM and lower noise
so
noice
π
but its bad?
the rgb controller?
i have a keyboard/mouse/mousepad from corsair (all rgb)
and they seem to work well

man gigabyte fans are loud
at least on my rx 580
i think they cheaped out on the fans

not exactly 100% confirmed but I have hopes
Go to http://www.privacy.com/jayztwocents to get $5 off your first purchase! RTX Titan is here... how does it perform in games? ββββββ Items featured in this...
welp, don't get the Titan if you only game
rip
Titan or two 2080Tis 
two 2080 Ti
wait for the next 20 series generation
The RTX Titan is basically a mix between a Gaming Card and a WS Card
But in terms of pricing it's clearly made for the latter
That's always been the case tbh
this game really likes to succ cpu
my 4c/8t will stutter if im in a discord call while playing
i like the corsair ring rgb more
That ain't it chief
wut
well min cpu is 6600k so your a few years back
That CPU ain't it @prime jasper
The game doesnt run well on a 6600k
And your CPU performs at the same level of an 8350 which cannot run this game well
Only thing I'd recommend is playing on 720p
they dont ru the same
6600k destroys a 8350
i think dice is just emphasizing core count in rec spec
oh i thought you wre replying to peanut
dont you dare
dont you DARE compare my cpu to an fx 8350
its far better
a 6600k is 4c
4t
also you know lowering the resolution makes it more cpu intensive, right? @sour ivy
Okay so you need a new cpu
why? my multithread is the exact same as the 6600k
i think its pretty clear you have no idea what youre talking about
i wouldnt say its 8350 bad, but i wouldnt say its 6600k good
theres too many factors to figure why youre lagging
its cpu usage
dx 11 vs dx12 could be the sole difference
dx12 still isnt great for maxwell / dice implementation
oh wow, my single thread is 42% faster than the 8350
nice
i was told it wasnt good for my 4790, i switched and its way better
i do get random stutters, but they are like once an hour and for a second
tdm seems fine while in a discord call but conquest has so many 2d variables to render like double the player count that it can pull lots more cpu
Ive finally installed my new ryzen 7 2700x with an amd moboard, excited to play bf5. But im trying to download the chipset drivers from armory crate, but its stuck on 10%
I dont know what to do
The temps on speccy are high, but it seems they arent to be trusted for amd
And i cant check real temps with the ryzen thingy before i get the drivers
@shell sentinel chipset drivers arent really neccesary, whatever it's using now will be fine
also do not trust speccy for temps, use something like hwinfo64
ur ass smells
hows poe nick
poe is amazing
ew no
crazy amount of content this league
gross
lets not discuss your face pls

This is hot
yes
860 evo 4tb only $700
YOUR LOSING MONEY NOT GETTING THIS THING

@red ingot no
500gb for 50 bucks or 1tb for 100 bucks is my limit
1tb for 100? Whereeeeeeeee
nowhere yet
Plsssss
but i think it will happen in the next few months
lol
samsung qvo or whatever its called launched at 1tb for 130ish
considering companies are still making factories to make more nand i think by at least next big sale $100 for 1tb ssd will be possible
30% more performance than a 1050 Ti, $70 less
nice
problem, only a DVI port
that's fine
yeah considering most people would only run 1 monitor on it anyway
yup
?
couldn't tell if battlefield security thought 100 1tb ssd was impossible
if anything a hdd/sdd split one
Ok, here's my Specs
CPU: i5-6600k at 4.5Ghz
GPU: GTX 1070
RAM Amount: 32GB
Expected Settings and Framerate at those settings?
resolution?
id be surprised if you dont get 60 fps with ultra settings at 1080p with those specs
Ok
im using a 4790, 1080, 16gb of ram on 1440p and on mix of low and ultra i get 100-140
just depends on scene and how much shit is going on
Did the recent alienware update screw up the sound and make gameplay lag for anyone else?
The rtx2080ti I ordered during the keynote finally came to the store if I want it lmao
Buildzoid looks at EVGA's RTX 2080 Ti FTW3 Ultra VRM quality and PCB quality, talking about whether this high-end GPU is worth buying. Ad: Corsair Vengeance ...
buildzoid knows everything about components

people get confused and think it's 16 power phase but it's 8 power phases
scored an Asus STRIX 1070. Now my build is complete. Strix mobo and GPU. Very sleeeeeek
but, I will have to replace my ugly noctua fans at some point
blue rgb only tasteful rgb
I want all black/gray components, which is a lot easier to obtain versus most other colors
ASrock used to make the sleekest motherboards
They're still pretty good now, but they've gone downhill
i was expecting to use them for my next build
havent personally tried asrock
havent heard anything bad
they're alright. about the same quality as Asus, really
though, BIOS wise, Asus is better
eh im not in bios much
Even a badly designed BIOS is perfectly usable anyways
People still shit on Gigabyte's BIOS. I thought it was fine enough.

dont be jealous of my rgb
i only have an rgb keyboard, mouse, mousepad, ram, motherboard, cpu cooler and graphics card
sigh
just need rgb fans to complete the rgb goodness
Yeah idk why u went for a 2070 
And yeah lol I put everything in the new case
Not like I'm running a pc with parts linked between 2 cases 
I'm like picturing my mobo/cpu/ram/gpu mounted in the new case, and then all my fans and psu still set up in the old one and bridging over
I mean a 2070 is between a 1080 and 1080ti
I mean at $550 for the binned variant
Its cheaper than a launch 1080
and less than I paid for a 1080 in June 
2070 = 1080 + 10%
anyone know how to fix low fps warning and lag?
it was working fine before i installed a few updates
i rolled back the audio driver which fixed the audio issue but cant rollback the video drivers bc otherwise it wont even open
task manager says its using 30% cpu and 30% gpu but i doubt that is correct bc task hacker shows 100% cpu and 0% gpu
and its not kicking on the fans like it used to which makes me believe the latter one more
plz ping me if you reply
im amazed by the impact case airflow has on temps
so lately i had some ram issues and saw that my cpu cooler was touching the ram so i decided to place it on the left side near the io shield
while the ram issues were fixed, my temps went from 61ΒΊc to 69ΒΊ when i decided to close bf1, (it could reach 70ΒΊ+ easy)(edited)
so its a 10ΒΊc difference in cpu temps just by changing the side where you put the fan
so after all this i put the fan back on the right side near the rams and notice that the vibration pads were the culprit making the fan slightly touch the fin of the ram, removed the pads and presto π
How will an i7 8700k handle BFV
really good
Okay awesome
Also can the 1080ti handle 4K 60fps?
Both parts are coming in the mail
You'll dip below 60fps on a 1080ti
I'm not going to use 4K until the day mid-range cards can run it at stable 60+ fps
is it weir di get 80 fps in 4k on fortnite witha 1050 2gb
with nvidia's optimized settings
Sounds about right
80fps 4k on a 1050 is nothing to be upset about lol
That's damn good

Pretty sure nvidia optimized settings are for 60fps
Anytime I "optimize" a game in geforce xp, I get roughly 60fps
probably auto puts it on low/medium
1050 will get around 60 fps average on epic settings in fortnite 1080p
I have a 1070 now, would a 1080ti increase my frames a good amount? 1080p, i7 6700k.
I mean. For 1080p you don't need more than a 1070
Unless you are wanting ultra graphics with 144hz
really
come on gigabyte

why the fuck would anyone put a blower style cooler on any card that has over 150 watt TDP
I mean... There's a very niche market for this and no one has a blower 2080ti right?
nvidia founders edition no longer uses blower-style coolers lol
so i think gigabyte is the only brand with a blower 2080 Ti
nvm
Asus has one too

and Zotac does too wtf
for bfv?
yes
get a 2080 Ti and a 900p monitor and turn the settings to low
you might be able to hit stable 240 fps idk

thanks for being unhelpful with a simple question
what gpu do you have
i already said
you got a 1070 now, and want a 1080 Ti, should be around 50-60% higher performance
so take your current fps and add 50-60% more to it to get a rough estimate
240 fps is very difficult to achieve on BFV
idk if it's possible haven't looked it up
awesome, thanks
Have any of you been having a lot of crashes in BF5?
lots of people have lol
It's crashing my entire computer. Sometimes it happens in the menu, sometimes I can play a couple rounds.
you did a file repair check?
windows version?
10
I have my error log but I don't know how to read it. It doesn't give me an error window or anything, though.
There are some things I haven't done but it's 'cause I don't think it's going to have any effect. I can play any other game with no issues, but this one causes problems. I don't do overclocking or any of that fancy stuff, too scared of killing my computer.
really hard to figure out the source of a crash
especially on BFV since it's still a new game
Yeah, agreed. And if I try a ton of fixes and it doesn't work, that doesn't help narrow anything down.
only things that could be wrong is software, possible malware conflicting with the game or maybe hardware
you ever use CCleaner?
another thing you can try
go into battlefield config file
enable full screen mode at launch and change all settings to dx12 in the config
It's been weeks since release
and they still haven't fixed the infinite black loading screen on round end bug
Why is it that expensive
@last copper I keep hearing about that but I've never got it. Is it often?
@latent light blowers have use cases, there's a solutely nothing silly about releasing a blower variant
@topaz raven Get a 9900k
Overclock it to 5.2ghz or so, then buy an RTX Titan or a 2080ti
If you want to do 1080p 240hz
@latent light blowers are useful for small cases
way too much greed lately
800 dollars for a laptop display... how can people be so stupid
and that intro in the video made me puke ughh
well its apple, not worth a penny
rip
$1200 from apple store, or take it to the dude at the computer shop for free.
wow
nice apple
@quaint topaz finalmouse ultralight mice are basically the best competitive mouse you can get, idk why that one in specific is asking that much, i know it came out like a month ago, its their lightest mouse yet with a paracord cable and is themed after ninja the fortnite streamer. if i had to guess they are out of stock

i heard that the mice other than the ultralight series has lots of problems
well it was an ultralight so lol
