[fallen harbor]

technology doesnt need to be electronic though

[supple bane]

i think it does

[molten bramble]

@sour ivy We saw what you said the last three times and it wasn’t funny then either.

[supple bane]

oooooooff

[fallen harbor]

no?

[fallen harbor]

the trebuchet was a technologic war development

[sour ivy]

Please no random pings

[fallen harbor]

so was architecture

[sour ivy]

[molten bramble]

Trebuchet

[supple bane]

yeah its a different type of technology tho

[molten bramble]

Long time since I’ve seen that word

[fallen harbor]

its technology

youre wrong and im right

[molten bramble]

[fallen harbor]

youre puny and im mighty

Looks like Niels is about to weigh in with some hard hitting facts.

[fallen harbor]

how dare you walk out of our epic battle

[supple bane]

looks like he is writing a novel to me

[molten bramble]

😁

[supple bane]

im gonna die of old age by the time this message pops up

[molten bramble]

We encourage the execution/application of literacy here.

[supple bane]

i think he gave up

nooo

we scared neil away

[molten bramble]

Anyone use a CPAP?

[fallen harbor]

dunno what that is so i guess i dont

[supple bane]

isnt that something to do with breathing?

[molten bramble]

Yeah, for folks that stop breathing when they sleep.

I use one.

[supple bane]

hmm

[fallen harbor]

huh

[supple bane]

i have heard of it but i dont know how it works

[fallen harbor]

you wake up a lot if you dont use it?

[molten bramble]

Anyways, took mine apart the other day, sort of seems like something that could be built/controlled from an arduino

[supple bane]

no he doesnt wake up at all

ever

😋

[molten bramble]

@fallen harbor yeah, pretty much. I averaged about 2 hours of sleep a night.

[supple bane]

ooh

[fallen harbor]

yikes

[supple bane]

did you know that was what was causing it ?

not being able to breath like ?

[molten bramble]

All started after returning from Iraq, breathed some shit in out there, been wonky ever since.

[fallen harbor]

huh

[molten bramble]

That was ‘06

[supple bane]

you was in the military?

[molten bramble]

I am yes.

[supple bane]

well thanks for your service i guess

[molten bramble]

Anyways, think I could build one tbh.

[supple bane]

even tho i dont live in your country

[fallen harbor]

ever got it confirmed? what it is?

[molten bramble]

No worries

Yeah, that’s why they gave me a CPAP.

[fallen harbor]

i mean in a more specific way

[supple bane]

he means like what the substance was

[molten bramble]

Nah, starting with breathing issue, progressed from there, got worse with other theaters.

Lot of us that came back from Iraq got some unknown respiratory disease.

[supple bane]

so whats your role ?

in the army like

[fallen harbor]

huh weird

[molten bramble]

Big fight with Congress at the moment over it.

[fallen harbor]

i wonder if its a chemical weapon or a side accident

[molten bramble]

@supple bane Kill bad people, blow shit up.

[fallen harbor]

where are you from

[molten bramble]

@fallen harbor Where I was at specifically was in Chemical Ali’s experiment base outside An Nasiriyah.

US

[supple bane]

i was really hoping you said a communications person

[molten bramble]

Nope

[supple bane]

im a big radio nerd

biiig radio nerd

ham radio to be exact

[molten bramble]

Ham radio is super cool, I just never had the money to get into it.

[supple bane]

it takes alot of time too

getting a licence

there is a lot of stuff you have to learn to get a licence for it

[molten bramble]

Time I can pencil into the schedule for some white space.

[supple bane]

it took me a year to revise all the stuff i needed

best thing about ham radio is how nice everyone is

5 years and not a single person has even swore at me never mind be toxic

[molten bramble]

Yeah, there is a real etiquette because there is accountability.

It’s not like CB.

You can have a license revoked.

On CB, there isn’t one.

[supple bane]

yeah

cb also sucks

because of range an such

the frequency and the antennas on cb are ass.

your lucky to get 20 miles out of it

on ham you can actually hear your self lol, from the radio waves going all the way round the earth

[molten bramble]

Well, bouncing from the troposphere isn’t it?

[supple bane]

ionosphere

[molten bramble]

Ah

[supple bane]

thats on hf tho

vhf is just a wave traveling in a straight line

hf goes up and down like a zig zag

[molten bramble]

VHF requires LOS?

[supple bane]

los ?

[molten bramble]

Line of Sicht

Sight

[supple bane]

no no

[mild bough]

what you guys talking about?

[molten bramble]

Ham Radio

[supple bane]

vhf is mainly based on height

[mild bough]

What is that?

[supple bane]

the higher you are the further the horizion is

because vhf doesnt bounce it just goes off the horizion and continues out to space

if you can imagine that in your head

[fallen harbor]

so im on my way to spend my month wage into a chip

[supple bane]

neat

my furthest contact on vhf was about 100 miles. and on hf it was about 2000 miles

but yeah you dont need line of sight, it will travel through stuff,

Help.When I run the game in DX11 my CPU load is maxed out on all 8 cores. have read some posts and had conversations with people who suggest running the game in DX12 with future frame rendering turned off. As soon as I ran the game in DX12 my GPU usage goes back up to 90-100% and my CPU drops considerably,however, dx12 was just a stuttering nightmare. (Cpu i7 9700k , Rtx 2080 , 1440p)

[supple bane]

@molten bramble

the novel has been released

[fallen harbor]

dx12 in bfv sucks in my experience

[supple bane]

its best on amd graphics card s

so when you get the rx 590 you will most likely get better performance on dx 12

[molten bramble]

😁

[mild bough]

@prime jasper wanna trade gtx 950 for a rtx 2080

[supple bane]

wait so whats the issue here ?

@prime jasper i dont know what the problem is lol

just wondering. how can i test the colour accuracy on my monitor? its not something that is going to bother me if its bad. or something i will make me want a new monitor because all i do is gaming. but it would be nice to know

and i cant find anything that can actually test the colours

because for a 1080p 75hz monitor this thing was bloody expensive so im thinking that it has good colour accuracy or something

[mild bough]

look if anyone is renting out monitor calibrating equipment

or proffesionals

[prime jasper]

https://www.tftcentral.co.uk/articles/icc_profiles.htm

@mild bough

[mild bough]

yeah, but they dont have all monitors

[prime jasper]

ask them

thats your best bet

[mild bough]

Ok, but I tried helping Grantyana Jones.

[signal forge]

need help!

anyone?

[sour ivy]

With wht

[signal forge]

GPu usage is 98% but my fps wont cross 65

in all origin games

but works fine in other games like ubisoft r6

ram 16gb 3000mhz

i7 8700k

GTX 1070 8gb

[prime jasper]

is your RAM dual channel?

[mild bough]

wdym granty

[signal forge]

temp are ariound 65

@prime jasper yes

[supple bane]

are you using dx 12 ?

[signal forge]

yes

[supple bane]

you need to be using dx 11

[signal forge]

but tested D11 still no solution

[prime jasper]

all origin games...bit odd. try turning off the origin overlay too

[supple bane]

dx 11 will help

dx 12 is best on amd cards, not so much nvidia

[signal forge]

d11 im getting 65 and d12 70

[mild bough]

What is even DX11 and DX12?

[supple bane]

thats in the range of error tho

it would be strange for a 1070 to prefer dx 12

[signal forge]

what to do?

im currently re locationg bfv to my ssd

[supple bane]

is your ram in the right slots on the motherboard to use dual channel ?

ie slot 2 and slot 4

[signal forge]

yes yes

can i send screenshots

no ok

[supple bane]

its ok i believe you

[storm osprey]

monitor hz?

[signal forge]

i placed my my ram in 2nd and 4rth

monitor is 144hz

[storm osprey]

do you have it set up right in windows and have vsync or frame cap off in bfv?

[signal forge]

no V sync

[supple bane]

do you have ffr enabled ?

[signal forge]

FFR?

[storm osprey]

future frame render

[signal forge]

no future frame render

[supple bane]

enable that then

[storm osprey]

settings, and resolution for bf?

[signal forge]

i used get 100+ on high but not im getting 65

in low and ultra same FPS

[supple bane]

enable ffr tho

that will give you a nice 20-40fps increase

[storm osprey]

ffr gives slight input lag though

[signal forge]

thats the reason i disable it

[supple bane]

it doesnt

your being pedantic if you can feel the input lag on that

or sorry, not feel but find it distracting

its such a tiny amount that its basically not there

[storm osprey]

true, but id rather not have that at all

[supple bane]

if your struggling for fps tho, ffr needs to go on period

[storm osprey]

well this guys case sounds like he didnt struggle for fps, something changed

[supple bane]

are you on the latest drivers ?

and if you are have you tried re installign them ?

are you on the latest version of windows ?

[signal forge]

yes lates

reinstalled just now

complete fresh installation

and im getting a better FPS in SQD conquest just testing now!

testing conquest!

[mild bough]

i would recommend turning your pc off and back on

[storm osprey]

^

[signal forge]

i have been doing that for 2 days

[storm osprey]

#1 recommendation

[signal forge]

re installed my ram in other slots

[mild bough]

What is your fps now?

[signal forge]

not even 45!

in conquest

but 110 in squad conquest!

how is that even possible?

[supple bane]

have you stopped to think that it might be the games fault ?

the performance in the game is getting worse and worse as time progresses

[mild bough]

i used to get like atleast 80 fps in bf1 with graphics on ultra

with my gtx 950

[signal forge]

RIP my 1070

[prime jasper]

?

[forest token]

F

[signal forge]

so 2019 GTX 1070 became a low end GPU

[mild bough]

just chill dude

it is not the end of the world

[storm osprey]

1070 isnt a low end gpu

[molten coral]

[trail kraken]

Hello, so my mate just bought BF1, and now I invited him to my party (multiple Times) and he couldnt join. Same problem the other way around. Why is that?

[supple bane]

its a known bug with bf1 i think

lobbys being sucky

[trail kraken]

How can we fix that?

[sour ivy]

Try joining from origin @trail kraken

[trail kraken]

Tried, "Couldnt join the Party"

[violet plank]

@signal forge go 1 driver version back if you got the newest one

[latent light]

@limpid vapor get a psu that isn't lower than 500w

[lofty light]

Generally it's good to get one that isn't backing onto the limit, I've almost killed a couple dusty ones like that

@latent light my 3900X is actually so freaking sweet

https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2019/aug/30/hackers-monitoring-implants-iphones-google-says

Thought on this?

[molten bramble]

None of my IS folks have mentioned it, and hadn't seen it in Ars Technica prior, nor The Register, so I'm skeptical of a competitor preaching about their competition's flaws.

And considering Android is the most vulnerability-laden mobile OS, daily, I'm not sure they have anywhere to even speak to the security of others.

Looks like Dan has posted something as of this evening: https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2019/08/armed-with-ios-0days-hackers-indiscriminately-infected-iphones-for-two-years/

I'll retain my skepticism of how deep a cut the vulnerability(ies) was/were for now.

[latent light]

[supple bane]

does anyone have experience with overclocking in gigabytes bios ?

because this thing sucks

i cant figure out how to change the voltage on my cpu

there is some weird off set thingy that you can do anywhere between +0.2v and -0.3v

so how the fuck does that translate to getting to 1.35v ?

[latent light]

you can't set a static voltage on gigabyte boards

only offset

[supple bane]

could you explain how it works/how to do it ?

or at least how to get to 1.35v

or even is there a way to get to 1.35v?

[latent light]

you have to find out what the stock voltage is without boost

[clear coyote]

What mb you have

[latent light]

you have a 2600?

[supple bane]

yeah

the gigabyte b450 aorus elite @clear coyote

[latent light]

do +0.090v

[supple bane]

what would that give me ?

[clear coyote]

You should turn on pbo and leave

it will oc itself based on CPU temperature

[supple bane]

or i could just overclock it to 4ghz like i would like to do

and ik that 4ghz on 1.35v is safe because i have tried it on ryzen master

[clear coyote]

You might need more than 1.4v

[supple bane]

you dont

like i said, its stable

its just ryzen master you have to actually open every time you turn your pc on to get the oc and it gets annoying

[clear coyote]

Newest bios updated?

[supple bane]

i saw someone with the same board and the same cpu having the same issue and he said he changed to the newest bios and the layout is still the same so i eint gonna bother

[latent light]

yeah new bios won't add manual voltage

didn't for me

gigabyte likes to cut out features

[supple bane]

so if i apply 0.09v? in terms of something i can understand what v would that give me ?

[latent light]

gigabyte is the worst AIB manufacturer you can choose unless you're going high-end

[clear coyote]

True

[latent light]

even uncommon brands like Biostar are better in low-mid range

[clear coyote]

get msi b450 mortar

[supple bane]

looks like im sticking with ryzen master then

[latent light]

B450 Tomahawk is the best B450 in terms of value

[clear coyote]

Biostar sucks

[latent light]

B450 Gaming Pro Carbon is the best B450 all around

[supple bane]

im not being funny this board is brand new, its like a week old

im not going to change it again

[clear coyote]

Bad choice

Then you are facing this kind of issue

[supple bane]

guess im just sticking with ryzen master then, it sucks there isnt a way to make it open with windows

[latent light]

do 0.09v, it's what I choose for 1.35v

although you have a 2600

I got a 1600

[supple bane]

well someone told me to use 0.174 and that translated to 1.35 but when i did that ryzen master was telling me it was at 1.134 v

[clear coyote]

Although, gigabyte z390 offer good value

Things could be varied

[supple bane]

ill just stick with ryzen master its fine

[clear coyote]

you should try more than once

[supple bane]

i have been trying all morning m8

[clear coyote]

That's how overclocking works

[supple bane]

yeah ik what overclock i need i just cant figure out how to apply the damn thing,

[latent light]

Mine is set to +0.09v offset and that gives me 1.33v

[supple bane]

what are you using to check the voltage on the cpu tho ?

[latent light]

You might need 0.11v

[clear coyote]

I use HWinfo

Or aida64

[supple bane]

@latent light like i said i tried 0.174 and ryzen master was telling me that was 1.134v

so what are you using to monitor cpu voltage ?

[latent light]

Don't use Ryzen master if you're using BIOS to manually set voltage and clockspeed

[supple bane]

makes sense i guess but i was only using it as monitoring software i guess

[latent light]

HWinfo64 is good to use

[supple bane]

i have downloaded it,

im gonna dig back into bios and set the voltage but not the frequency so i dont crash if it doesnt go to plan

@latent light just to make sure. Which one should I be changing ?

[latent light]

first one

[supple bane]

cool

just as expected, 1.2v

its sort of changing tho, some times the voltage will go all the way up to 1.28v

so should i try a load and see if that makes the voltage go up or something ?

[clear coyote]

Normally voltage will go down at load

[supple bane]

yeah im giving up

ill just use ryzen master

ill just have to get into the habbit of launching it when turn my pc on

[clear coyote]

Blame gigabyte

[supple bane]

blame gigglebyte

[jagged citrus]

I think you can set it up to open when you turn the pc on

[supple bane]

you cant

[mild bough]

what is that thing granty

[supple bane]

what is what ?

[mild bough]

that you sent pic of

[supple bane]

oh bios

[mild bough]

in the tech chat

whats bios?

[supple bane]

its where you can change settings about how the hardware performs

you can do things like increase the clock speeds, increase voltages

stuff like that

[mild bough]

how much volt the gpu will use?

watt*

[supple bane]

about 190w

you are getting the 2070 right ?

[mild bough]

yeah

[supple bane]

then yeah about 190w

[mild bough]

i have 550w on my psu, so then i should turn down the watt on the 2070?

[supple bane]

no its fine

thats not how watts work

[mild bough]

oh

how does it work then?

[supple bane]

watts is something that measures how many joules per second the power supply is delivering

or rather HAVING to deliver

[mild bough]

ohhh

[supple bane]

it doesn't deliver 550watts constantly

it delivers what it needs to

[mild bough]

But what happens if I have to little Watt on my PSU compared to my GPU

[supple bane]

your system will most likely just crash

buttt it can also blow up in spectacular fasion

it depends on how nice the psu is iirc

[mild bough]

oh

hope my gpu wont blow up

;p

[supple bane]

it wont

you have at leasy 100-200watt head room before you reach 550watt

[mild bough]

so watt is how many joules it can deliver per second

what is volt and joules?

[supple bane]

thats harder to explain

the easiest way i could describe it is how much "force " the electricity has

[mild bough]

oh yeah

Like how 100 volt on your finger dont hurt

But 10 000 hurt

[supple bane]

its actual definition is that 1 volt is enough to carry 1 amp across 1 ohm

[mild bough]

but what is joils

joules*

[supple bane]

a joule is a measurement of any form of energy

so moving your finger up may take like 1-2 joules

and we get out joules from food

[mild bough]

so it is fuel?

[supple bane]

you may have heard of KJ or calories ?

[mild bough]

Like take example in a car

[supple bane]

no it isnt fuel

[mild bough]

hmm

[supple bane]

its a measurement of energy

its what you use to measure how much energy is being used

[mild bough]

Ohh yeah

[supple bane]

so one the back of food packaging it will say how many joules it contains

which means if you eat that you can output that amount of energy

which will be done through heat mostly

[mild bough]

is kj kilo joules or something?

[supple bane]

yeah

[mild bough]

oh

[supple bane]

1000 joules

its just a measurment

like inch, or cm, or litre

[mild bough]

my gpu is 29.2cm long, is it small?

[supple bane]

no lol

thats huge

[mild bough]

Really?

[supple bane]

as gpu's go yeah

[mild bough]

loll

how much does 4k 144hz G-sync monitors cost usually?

[supple bane]

alot

about 1500 pound

[mild bough]

damn

can i overclock my cpu?

[supple bane]

i7 8700?

[mild bough]

yup

[supple bane]

No

[mild bough]

rip

why?

[supple bane]

Intel has specific versions of CPUs that can be oveclocked

They named with a k or X

so i5 9600k, i7 9700x, i9 9900x, i9 9900k

All CPUs that can overclocked

[mild bough]

Ahahha who would overclock an I9-9900

What is your cpu granty?

[supple bane]

ryzen 5 2600

[lofty light]

If you don't overclock the 9900k you're getting a very expensive CPU without using it like you should

[mild bough]

i dont see the point of overclockint an i9-9900

the cpu works super good, why just not leave it like that

[sour ivy]

Because intel processors should be overclocked

[mild bough]

whyy

but how do you overclock cpu?

[sour ivy]

To reach their full potential

Using bios

[mild bough]

Because i can only overclock gpu on msi afterburner

oh

ok

[sour ivy]

You can overclock ryzen via an application

[mild bough]

cool

[sour ivy]

If ur not gonna overclock ur 9900k

Ur better off buying a ryzen

[mild bough]

I like Intel

[hoary ember]

meh

[mild bough]

What motherboard should i buy that is compatible with i7-8700 has 4 ram slots?

and can have 1660ti 1080ti

[fallen harbor]

guys i replaced my r9 380 for a rx590 and the latter easily reaches 75c in the same settings the former rarely surpased 65, anyone knows what I can do?

[supple bane]

Why do you want a new motherboard ?

[steep gust]

@fallen harbor Different architect, different heatsink, different settings, and a whole lot of other stuff

[fallen harbor]

i wanna know if theres anything i can do

[supple bane]

Nope

Unless you get an aftermsrkey cooler

[steep gust]

you could have bought a better card

RX590 makes no sense unless you got it super cheap

[fallen harbor]

it reaches 75 with an ambience temperature of 15 i dont want to imagine how itll be in summer

[supple bane]

eh that's not too bad

[fallen harbor]

i got it super cheap

[steep gust]

and if you said "same settings" is this stock?

if you changed the power limit at all its gonna draw way more

[fallen harbor]

huh stock design? no

[steep gust]

stock settings in like afterburner

[fallen harbor]

i made sure amd settings uses default settings

im not using afterburner

[supple bane]

what do you mean by settings ?

[fallen harbor]

like fan curve and stuff

[steep gust]

don't change fan curves then

[supple bane]

No wonder your temps are ass

well

75 is perfectly fine

[steep gust]

ye

[fallen harbor]

sounds kinda dangerous to me

isnt 80 like super bad

[supple bane]

I wouldn't be worried until you hit 90

No

[steep gust]

if its fully stock (stock fan curves) it'll throttle itself before it damages itself

generally

[supple bane]

90 is where you might wanna change stuff

[steep gust]

doesn't mean your VRMs / memory aren't cooking

[supple bane]

yeah

[fallen harbor]

hmm okay

[steep gust]

I would run the stock fan curve or make it more aggressive if you think thermals are bad

[supple bane]

My 1060 used to get to 89 degrees and thermal throttle like 300mhz

[fallen harbor]

i might change the curve in summer i guess

[supple bane]

so you are fine

[sour ivy]

Did you get it used

@fallen harbor

[fallen harbor]

no

[sour ivy]

That’s pretty hawt

[supple bane]

It isn't

Trust me

75 is normal and perfectly safe

like predator said a gpu can't get damaged by heat because of thermal throttling

[sour ivy]

I thought I read something about going up to 90

I just read it wrong

[supple bane]

no

I said 90 is where you should start getting worried

[fallen harbor]

ty

csgo runs at a lower frame rate than with the r9 380 tho 🤔

with all settings in low it ran at like 250fps and with this one also in low settings it runs at around 140

i wonder why

not that it really matters cause i play 60hz

but curious

[supple bane]

now there's a serious issue

[steep gust]

did you uninstall the old drivers

[fallen harbor]

ye

[latent light]

@fallen harbor go to Userbenchmark.com and download it and test your system

Make sure to run it with everything in the background closed

[fallen harbor]

ok ty

[steep gust]

userbenchmark is awful

[latent light]

it's a good way to find out if things are performing as expected

doesn't help with testing stability though

@fallen harbor post scores when finished

[supple bane]

@steep gust the only part of userbrnchmark that is sucky is the ranking part. but the benchmark it's self is really good

[steep gust]

eh the actual benchmark is really weak and really easily swayed

[latent light]

30% higher multicore performance over previous gen threadripper

that's huge

[violet plank]

working at intels marketing must be boring af atm

[steep gust]

"userbenchmark"

hmmmmm

I can do a whole lot to my userbenchmark score just by fucking around with common settings on benchmarks

but yeah the 2990WX has a lot of issues, so no duh its replacement is gonna be insane

[clear coyote]

I found userbanchmark is dumb

[steep gust]

Its extremely dumb

The ranking is stupid, but just the benchmark itself is flawed

[clear coyote]

Also found my ASUS mobo is dumb

Don't know why people favor them

[steep gust]

I have no real issues with my asus board

but its all personal preference

[clear coyote]

I had bsod caused by ram issue

It will crush even at default setting

then, I replug them, everything works

[lofty light]

If I need a benchmark I'll use heaven or 3dmark personally

[fossil dune]

anyone manage to get the new nvidia sharpen game filters to work on the new 436.15 drivers, im just getting "requires a supported game error" eventhough the game is clearly supported

[mild bough]

Yeah I get it to on every game I have on my PC

Has been like that the last year

Try look it up @fossil dune

[fossil dune]

some people have it working idk how

works on csgo tho confused

@mild bough

[mild bough]

Damn

I will try look it up how to fix it when I get back home

[fossil dune]

i fixed it its the latest driver 436.15 thats causing it

436.02 is fine, working now @mild bough

[mild bough]

Oh ok, thanks. Will test it

[fossil dune]

if you hate the bfv film grain/blurryness you'll love this

[mild bough]

Film grain is awfuk

what is it even? It just adds so many dots

Does 2x16 ram exist to get 32gb ram?

[supple bane]

yeah

[mild bough]

So i could have 4x16?

[supple bane]

you could but you dont need it

[mild bough]

it would be so coll

cool*

[supple bane]

yeah

but its over kill for gaming \

[mild bough]

yeah lol

you could run like 3 battlefields at the same time

[supple bane]

not really

[mild bough]

why not?

[supple bane]

because you would need the gpu power and cpu power to run it

[mild bough]

oh yeah forgot

but how do you install 2 gpus?

[supple bane]

basically

you put the gpu in

[mild bough]

like some youtubers have 2 gpus

yea

[supple bane]

then you get the other one

and you put it in

and but the bridge on

and done

but sli sucks so

[mild bough]

but do you have to do anything to get them to cooperate?

[supple bane]

a couple of things, its really simple but it still sucks

[mild bough]

Why?

[supple bane]

because you pay for 2 gpu's but the performance will be like 1 and a quarter gpus

you wont get double the performance with 2 gpus

[mild bough]

Makes no sense why you wouldnt get double performance

[supple bane]

well the support fell off because its just better to get one gpu

so drivers and other software got a bit shit

and games stopped supporting sli

[mild bough]

oh

What was the recommended specs for BFV again?

[supple bane]

!!specs

[silent oasis]

ℹ Battlefield V: System Requirements:
Refer to this image to know more about the minimum and recommended system requirements in order to play Battlefield V

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/451791186642993152/509053395768705024/sys.png

[mild bough]

tbh

bfv is not that resource intensive

[supple bane]

lol

it is

its one of the most intensive games out there

[mild bough]

really?

[supple bane]

there is more specific spec inteisive games out there

[mild bough]

I expect like the recommended specs would be i7-8700 and GTX 1660ti

[supple bane]

like for example, ark is really gpu intensive, but it barely uses cpu

[mild bough]

What

How is ark GPU intensive

It looks so bad

[supple bane]

its the most gpu intensive game ik of

for epic settings the recommended gpu is a TITAN V

[mild bough]

In ARK?

[supple bane]

yeah

[mild bough]

Looool

What about RDR2?

Wait

Is RDR2 out on PC?

[supple bane]

no

[mild bough]

oh

will it be out on pc?

[supple bane]

idk

[mild bough]

rip

[fossil dune]

@mild bough its like motion blur but it hides stuff

[mild bough]

all i see when i enable it is just small dots everywhere

[fossil dune]

yeah i personally hate it

they used too much film grain in bfv imo

[mild bough]

yea

[long sphinx]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DgSoZAdk_E8

unless they come up with a magic speedy bios thats false advertising

so unnecesary

[steep gust]

Did you even watch the fucking video

and its not false advertising

[long sphinx]

all the way to the end

[steep gust]

Then you would remember when he said

"no single BIOS update will fix it"

Also read up on what turbo clocks are, and how they function

They are never guaranteed

[long sphinx]

well ill like to think its a new architecture and improvements are coming

but its nice talking to you as always

[mild bough]

Can I have any help? When I try to turn my PC on, nothing happens. The fan and nothing is moving

The lights are working tho

nvm fixed it now

[queen vine]

damn, specs be Intel core I5 6600k and I have a I3-7100 one

;-; no wonder I'm lagging so badly in-game

[prime jasper]

if you can find a used 7700k for a decent price it would be a huge upgrade

[queen vine]

I should've checked the specs for the game before I bought it for 100$ ;-;'

[prime jasper]

100??

[queen vine]

yeah

[warm aurora]

What chairs do y’all recommend im tired of standing and playing

[latent light]

@queen vine lol i3-7100 should be $50 or less

Dual cores are dead

[queen vine]

Lmao ikr

I bought the computer for 700$ so idk

but that was like 3-5 years ago

Someone know what I should upgrade to? I have enough cash for a GOOD one

[sour ivy]

How much

[queen vine]

1k$

[sour ivy]

You want a new pc?

[queen vine]

Nah

Just a new processor

[sour ivy]

with 1k no point in not getting a new one

What’s your gpu

[prime jasper]

best he could do is 7700k

[sour ivy]

But with 1k you can build a new build

[prime jasper]

but yeah a grand gets a pretty decent new build

[queen vine]

i3-7700k?

[prime jasper]

i7

[supple bane]

just build a new pc

2060, 3600

sorted

[sour ivy]

Sell old parts

[steep gust]

7700k is not worth buying

[supple bane]

^

[sour ivy]

What gpu u gave

Have

[supple bane]

shit cpu

[steep gust]

overpriced as hell

[sour ivy]

Poopeee

[supple bane]

imagine paying that price for a 4c

[sour ivy]

Intel

[steep gust]

yeah for $1000 you can do 2600 + 5700xt

https://www.amazon.com/AMD-Processor-Wraith-Stealth-Cooler/dp/B07B41WS48/

$130 2600

[supple bane]

i would argue againts that setup

the gpu will be heavily bottle necked

[sour ivy]

Huh

[steep gust]

depends on the resolution

and a lot of other variables

[supple bane]

i guess

[steep gust]

a bottleneck always exist and is a fucking buzzword

[sour ivy]

That’s not a bad combo

[steep gust]

I run a 8600k + 1080 and some people would consider that a bottleneck

[supple bane]

i would say in that situation go with the 3600

[steep gust]

X570 boards cost a lot

so unless you have a way to verify the BIOS on a B450, etc board

[supple bane]

well what about intel then

i5 8400 maybe

[steep gust]

That's an awful buy when Ryzen is as cheap as it is

I would expect B550 soon™

or more budget X570 boards

[supple bane]

yeah but the i5 8400 out performs the 2600 in gaming and is like what ? 60 pound more expensive ?

ok then

2600x

[steep gust]

its not that much of a difference

it more perform slightly better, but its an awful value

[supple bane]

its like 20 pound more

[prime jasper]

not to mention the 8400 was supplanted by the 9400f

[supple bane]

[steep gust]

9400F is literally a 8400

with a new ihs

[prime jasper]

new ihs, new powah

[steep gust]

its not even soldered

[queen vine]

might just wait and get like 1,5k$ or 2k$ and build a better one

[prime jasper]

nah

https://pcpartpicker.com/guide/R3G323/great-amd-gamingstreaming-build

[steep gust]

5700xt is a better value than a 2060s

also $80 for a semi-modular PSU

[prime jasper]

true, easy swap

[mild bough]

I saw a i7-7700 for 100$

used ofc, good deal?

[supple bane]

meh

[mild bough]

why not?

[supple bane]

its 4c

[steep gust]

a 2600 is $130 new

[mild bough]

4c?

[steep gust]

and comes with a heatsink

[supple bane]

and one that doesnt suck

🙂

well as far as box coolers go at least

[steep gust]

its used it won't come with the stock heatsink most likely

[supple bane]

who is going to use a 7700 with a shintel heat sink tho

[mild bough]

ffs, i see so many pc’s that is listed for like 700$ and it has i5-6400 and gtx 960 and 4gb ram

[supple bane]

so it doesnt really matter in that regard

[mild bough]

and they call it powerful

all the fuckin time

[supple bane]

you can get way more for 700 bucks

you can get a very respectable pc for 700 bucks

[steep gust]

I see "4k ready" PCs with Ivy Xeons (or other similarly cheap xeons) and a 1060

[mild bough]

so annoying

[steep gust]

just because your $10-20 xeon has 10 cores

[latent light]

i5-9400F is a terrible buy, Ryzen 5 3500 is coming out soon, same core and thread count but expect 10% more performance

[steep gust]

doesn't make it good

[mild bough]

any i5 cpu is bad

[supple bane]

no

not the case

[steep gust]

hell I have a bunch of random $2 xeons I bought off of ebay when bored in my desk

[mild bough]

yes

[supple bane]

no

[steep gust]

uh an 8600k is solid for gaming

overclocked it beats zen 2

[supple bane]

i5 9600k is great

[mild bough]

@dawn portal Alien ware for 4000$

[latent light]

R5 3500 is just going to be a 3600 without SMT

for around $150

[mild bough]

it was joke lol

[steep gust]

My 8600k does 5.1ghz or so

[supple bane]

why do you want a laptop then ?

[mild bough]

Who spends 4000$ on a laptop

[steep gust]

plenty of people

[supple bane]

then get a desktop

not a laptop

[mild bough]

never buy laptop

[supple bane]

for gaming LAPTOPS SUCK

[mild bough]

because they get so warm

[supple bane]

not even

[mild bough]

no granty

[supple bane]

they are just so expensive for very little

[mild bough]

unless you spend atleast 2000$ for a laptop

youre not gonna get a super good obe

[supple bane]

for 800 bucks you will be lucky to get a 1050ti

[mild bough]

i dont get it

Why do people lis gtx 1080ti for 600$

you could have gotten a rtx 2070 super for that price

[supple bane]

because the 1080ti out performs the 2070 super ?

[mild bough]

but no rtx

[supple bane]

yeah and rtx sucks

[mild bough]

no f off

rtx is the best

[supple bane]

[mild bough]

sorry

forgive me master

[supple bane]

ooh yeah lets play with 10 fps to get some fucking reflections

FUN

[mild bough]

yeee haaawt

[latent light]

RTX probably the worst product lineup Nvidia has ever launched in a decade

[mild bough]

no

is cool

[latent light]

it offers no better value than the 1000 series

[mild bough]

but rtx

not gtx

[latent light]

there's less games with RTX than there are Xbox exclusives

[supple bane]

[mild bough]

but bfv have

is fun

is col

is life

[supple bane]

and like i said

[latent light]

if you want fps cut in half then turn on DXR

[supple bane]

your gonna play with very little fps to have some fancy reflections

[mild bough]

Whats dxr

[latent light]

RTX

[mild bough]

oh

lol

[safe meteor]

bfv

[latent light]

good luck maintaining even 60 fps consistently with RTX turned on

[mild bough]

60 fps is a major upgrade from what i had

[supple bane]

yeah and thats with a 2080ti

[latent light]

you can get a RX 570 for $120 and play BF5 at ultra settings and get above 60 fps

[steep gust]

it doesn't even look good enough to validate it

[mild bough]

stop buly rtx

me and rtx are friends

[supple bane]

yeah when you actually play the game you wont have time to notice it

you would have to walk around like a 60 year old sovereign citizen and take in all the sights

[steep gust]

There is a reason navi doesn't have any ray tracing

There isn't enough raw compute power to brute force it

and no realistic way to get around brute forcing it

[latent light]

AMD will implement ray-tracing at a much cheaper manufacturing cost than Nvidia

[steep gust]

yeah using the DX12 API

and its gonna be absolute shit

just like RTX

[latent light]

it's going to be implemented the same way for consoles which game developers are going to heavily optimize for

[steep gust]

There is not a single GPU with enough compute power to do true ray tracing in modern games

[latent light]

ik lol

[steep gust]

optimizing means using tricks and shortcuts to make it look "close enough"

[latent light]

why don't game developers just do what Cryengine does

[steep gust]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[mild bough]

cryengine?

a crying engine?

[steep gust]

there isn't a engine that does everything

[hoary ember]

Cryengine is cool

[latent light]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1nqhkDm2_Tw @mild bough

ray-tracing done on a GPU without RTX hardware

that test was done with a Vega 56

[steep gust]

I mean you never needed RTX for ray tracing

just dx12 support with an engine that supports it

[molten coral]

Someone knows how to fix this? @untold glade has this issue.

[untold glade]

I restarted origin and now its all just a blank screen lol

[molten coral]

You could try repairing origin.

[untold glade]

restarted again and the general ui is buggy while the friends list is upside down again

[sour ivy]

But.... I need nice reflections

Worth tearing

[mild bough]

Exactly pimp

you are the brightest one here

exept me :p

[sterile nacelle]

bruh

why is the game stuttering

i have a i5-4440 8gb ram and a gtx 1050 ti

[mild bough]

Normal

Many people hace that issue, there are some videos on YT on how to halfway fix it.

[sterile nacelle]

how do u fullway fix it

[mild bough]

Idk

It is just BFV

[sterile nacelle]

ya

i dont stutter in anything else

[mild bough]

some of the fixes may make the stuttering less noticable

[forest token]

one ram stick or two? make sure future frame rendering is on

play in full screen exclusive or if that doesn't work try borderless windowed

[mild bough]

Borderless window is more resource intensive?

[sour ivy]

Naw literally

Your specs just aren’t good enough

[sterile nacelle]

no

cause when i dont stutter the game plays fine

[sour ivy]

I5 4440

You’re gonna stutter

[mild bough]

I can agree that the CPU is not good enough

But the RAM and GPU I would say is fine

[sterile nacelle]

i upgraded the gpu on my dell inspiron

i slapped a graphics card onto it

[sour ivy]

I gotchu

I’m just telling you that you can’t expect stable in Bfv because your cpu isn’t good enough

And Bfv is poorly optimized

[sterile nacelle]

well

i just want 30+ fps

i was used to playing everything with 30 fps

[sour ivy]

Are you not getting 30?

[sterile nacelle]

i am

i just dont want to stutter

[sour ivy]

I’m saying there are ways to decrease it but not completely stop the problem

Dx 12 on?

Future frame rendering?

Delete

[mild bough]

It is horrible lol

[sour ivy]

Delete

[mild bough]

sorry master

[sterile nacelle]

how do youd isable dx 12

[sour ivy]

It’s in video settings

[sterile nacelle]

i'll check that out

im gonna see if i can run apex legends

[sour ivy]

Also make sure to disable

Hdr

motion blur

Aim down sight dof

Film grain and all of the settings under it

[sterile nacelle]

yessir

[sour ivy]

About to take off on a plane will answer more shit in 2 hours if it’s still an issue

[untold glade]

@sterile nacelle your computer is aging compared to the requirements for bfV

I get constant 120fps with no stutters because I run on new hardware

[sterile nacelle]

😦

[steep gust]

only 120fps?

[mild bough]

on ultra

[steep gust]

I do that on hardware that is like 2 years old

and never was ultra high end

[mild bough]

lool

[untold glade]

I have my fps capped

let me turn off the cap to flex on you

[mild bough]

Cap?

Why is a cap on your pc

[supple bane]

[untold glade]

do you know what a fps cap is used for

[mild bough]

Nope

oh

is it a fps limiter?

[untold glade]

yes

[mild bough]

Why do you have one?

[untold glade]

there's no point in pushing really high FPS if my monitor can't even display it. Also it's summer here so I want to limit how much heat my computer generates

[mild bough]

oh makes sense

its fun having high fps tho

[supple bane]

why tho ?

[untold glade]

it does nothing but make your pc run hotter

[mild bough]

so

turn the fan speed up

[supple bane]

and it gets louder

[untold glade]

I don't want to play games in a room that is 100+ degrees

[mild bough]

heat for the winter

[untold glade]

its the hottest part of summer rn

usually at this time of the year its 110F outside

[mild bough]

Sorry but what is 110 Fahrenheit in Celsius?

[untold glade]

43.3c

[mild bough]

DAMN

[untold glade]

yeah

[mild bough]

pooor soul

yeah i get that

you should be living in a freezer

[coarse nimbus]

yeah but nshire...your 120fps is weak, allow me to flex on you

[steep gust]

it is pretty weak on modern hardware

at 1080p

[sour ivy]

8600k and 1080 still SOLID @steep gust

[steep gust]

can't forget solid overclocks on every component

and then I play factorio

[sterile nacelle]

i still get stutters@sour ivy

[prime jasper]

everyone does

[latent light]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fl_bUBldX4Q

that air cooler he chose is only $43 and it destroys everything else in the same price range

[lofty light]

I remember having a hyper 212 and overclocking my 5820K on it

[supple bane]

i got my deepcool l240 for 40 pound so i cant complain

[prime jasper]

I am working with a few ppl to make a Demo to recruit more Team members, we will start our own company given the feedback is good, the concept kicks major azz, so it should, Temp-Site here: https://mmckeon617.wixsite.com/wykedproductions

[clear horizon]

Need help with fps issues

Have 1050 8gb

Ddr4

I5

Plenty of memory on hdd

Have tried everything

Used to get atleast 40 fps

Now im down to 20

And the game is unplayable

[supple bane]

for a start you dont have a 1050 8gb because that doesnt exist

im going to need to know a little more about your system that that m8

what cpu and ram do you have ?

[clear horizon]

I have 8 gigs of ram yeah mb

[supple bane]

@clear horizon what cpu is it ?

[clear horizon]

CPU i5-8300H | 2300 MHz | 15.6" | 1920x1080 | RAM 8GB | DDR4 | 2666 MHz | HDD 1TB Hybrid HDD (FireCuda) | 5400 rpm | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 | 4GB |

Full spec's here @supple bane

8gb 1050 pepega

[supple bane]

yeah its your cpu. its 4 core.

ram is most likely single channel 2

so your fps seems about right '

[clear horizon]

Basicslly i tried some custom settings, setting bf1 to high priority, disabling origin stuff

The thing is

It wasn't always like thay

That

When i got my computer last year it was about 40-60 fps most of the time

[supple bane]

yeah the performance on bfv has got worse

[clear horizon]

Im playing bf1

So more ram would do the trick?

[supple bane]

no its mainly your cpu

[clear horizon]

I should have 1 slot open

Can't switch that one out sadly :/

I can download more cores

[prime jasper]

[clear horizon]

Guess its the end of mu bf1 career then

Managed to play for 200 hours before it became unplayable

Firerate with 20fps is horrid

Can't kill anyone

[austere temple]

just a question

is that a laptop ?

bcz you said | 15.6" | 1920x1080 |

and if it was a gaming case instead of stop playing you can just upgrade your cpu and that poor HDD with 5400 rpm

[frank night]

can someone help me my mouse in game is crashing is not working as it was before starting to play in other games the mouse is right but in bfv is not

[clear horizon]

Yes its a laptop @austere temple

Have you tried reparing your game @frank night

Check's if files are corrupted and working properly

[frank night]

@clear horizon yes

My grafics us low config

Rx470 4g

[clear horizon]

Reinstall?

[frank night]

I go try this

Xd

With best internet ever

[clear horizon]

Gl

Didn't manage to find wether i can switch out my cpu on my laptop
