ok so u make good use of ur 2080ti
i dont understand ppl that get 2080s for 1080p low
even a 2060 will do it
if bfv looked like minecraft id still play it. im a gameplay over graphics kinda person.
sounds stupid but
1920x1080 here
Ye only bought the GPU after the monitor
1920 by 1080
I run 2 monitors but i only use one for gaming.
Same, I just wanna run most things " okay "
One for gaming, one for YouTube and one for discord
living the dream
can i get the regular role so i can quickly post a pic of my specs
so ppl still play BV5
32GB of ram is overkill
If you post it on Imgur you can share the link
kk
32GB is great tbh, I've got that atm
Unless you play Minecraft, and then you dont have enough.
Lots of wiggle room
i have msi trident 3
its not much much but its honest work 
Pretty similar to my first PC tbh
msi tridents are the most expensive things in the world
For awhile all I had to upgrade was my GPU cause I had a nice i7-920 back in the day
Eh, it's still okay
it does 60fps constant in bfv and csgo and thats all i play. so cant complain
I just can't blow the same kind of $$ I used to on PC parts
Fair enough, I'm a little surprised about the bfv but eh
is a 1050ti still good anymore
You get old, you have to spend money on not gaming, it's terrible. Don't grow old XD
ye i was too but . bfv has good optimization tricks.
Imma buying a house so I can't buy any more tech for a while 
Yeah, student debt is what I'm working on Manic
faraway buildings become textures and not solid. lets bfv gain a ton of fps
Good thing I only built up like 6k in student debt so I'm clear there thankfully
I'm a 3d animator, so I built up about 40k worth XD
not bad
Funny thing though, I'm paying off a car that cost just as much twice as fast.. because cars can have 0% interest.
also i play at 1080p but with black bars on top and bottom. the pixels in the blackbars dont get rendered and i get even more fps

How does it run on consoles then. They must of hardlocked a ton of settings.
i believe console uses 1080p at medium settings.
ok
man how do i know if i port forwarded correctly
Ryzen 9 CPUs coming to mobile with Vega 15 graphics
So you know how impressive Nathalie Ek's contribution(s) was, right!?
Well I belive Liza Shulyayeva @Lazer on twitter can be 100 times better.
She has the brains, she has the cats and she is straight outta fucks!
Go check her out, she seems so down to earth she chose boots for their usability not looks π .
unless u have no choice , gaming laptops are never a good idea
overheating and no upgrade path is the main issue
Yep I use a laptop (not even a gaming one) and am able to cook stuff on it even when I play mc 
@grand steeple yeah I wouldnβt get a gaming laptop
Its not really for gaming tbh
just for casual use
and since its gaming it would be fast
yeah but for normal use you are spending money on stuff you donβt need. For normal use you want a really fast drive and a good screen. this has neither. As all the money is spent on the graphics card
money that could have been spent on like I said. Fast storage and a nice screen
its not that expensive
Short answer Freeze, yes. A gaming laptop will provide good performance. Just make sure it has an SSD in it and see if you can find one that doesn't weigh a ton. Otherwise you'll be stuck with some cheap laptop that'll be useless in a few years.
If you can actually find a place that builds them/custom that's really great. We had a local spot where they'd build you a custom one and that thing lasted forever. I used it for college (3d art) and it was destroying the alienware/mac users beside me.
The problem with a lot of "casual" oriented laptops is they are often overpriced because people assume you have no idea what you're looking for, or they'll lack an SSD which is probably the single largest factor in your speed on a laptop these days for casual use.

You can manually pick to upgrade all of it, but right away that's as much $$ as a regular laptop is usually..
https://www.newegg.com/platinum-gray-lenovo-ideapad-l340-81lg0011us-mainstream/p/N82E16834845030?Item=N82E16834845030 <-- then we have a more "casual " laptop that is nearly as expensive, but lacks a decent graphics card, can't really be upgraded/changed when buying it.. =\ It's a small example, but food for thought.
@dusky mural the one i chose has an 8gb ram and 256gb ssd or 2tb hdd with gtx 1650
@thin horizon You will be able to reach the 60 fps in Battlefield with an 1050ti + I5 8400 for example. But you will have to play on Low - Medium settings.
In 1080p
with an i5 8400? you could get 60 fps on ultra
1050 ti + I5 8400 yes
oh with a 1050ti yeah 60fps low
But I would go for a 1660 or 1660ti
why not 5700
i had this discussion with a friend and we both came to the conclusion that the 1660ti was better for a tight budget, we admit on paper the 5700 was more powerful but our issue was that it was way more expensive over here and would mean you have to get a beefier psu
said friend is planning out his first build and he is going for a 1660 super and a 2600x. his budget is 800 pound
Damn, are UK prices really that high?
that's like $1400 CAD, you can build a dream machine over here for that.
i mean a bottle of water down here cost 2,5Β£
Epic games just bought quixel
And it's making the entire 10.000 assets free
For unreal engine
OMG
cheapest 1660ti is 260 and cheapest 5700 is 330 here
i mean, good for what?
1080p its basically perfect, hell it can do up 144hz monitors fine
for 1440p? ehh that gets a bit tight
do 60hz gets better performance than 144hz?
its just refresh rate
so 144hz gets better performance considering it can output more frames
for 1080p definite yay
yea
Anyone have tips for audio randomly coming on and off, I've been having this issue for months now and it's preventing me from playing at all
onboard sound could be going out, or ports going bad
switch connects from front and back and see if theres a difference
if that doesnt help you might want to look into getting a soundcard or external dac and or amp
theres also drivers and of course your speakers/headphones that could be suspect as well
I'm using a USB headset, tried several ports, tried using speakers with both front and back ports, and even on HDMI through my monitor ;-; no issues in any other game
hyperx cloud 2?
Razer Kraken
hmmm, idk much about those
rip lol, thanks for the help though!
off the bat i would say try drivers
if anything.. the default meme thing to say is its a razer product
amen lmaooo Razer is assss
some things seem fine honestly, but i wouldnt get their headphones (i wouldnt get any gaming headphone outside of a couple honestly)
We are here
Hey
There are also much more knowledgeable people than me here
I can only offer my 2.cents
It does sound like a lot for just the menu
People are getting 100% with high end cpus too
It's something bad with the fame
Heard some standby list cleaner thing helped
Levelcap said something about it, but he only had minor stuttering
Don't know how much it'd help fpr you
Not complaining but wtf
Maybe its the map
Not stuttering at all atm
Last night it was on a different map
Huh, and ram usage?
And your total %?
85%
BF5 can fully utilize a i7-9700K
Might've been because you had stuff opened in the background last time
which map were you playing on?
intelligent standby list cleaner is bretty gud
because i think iwo jima has some performance issues for a lot of people atm.
For me iwo jima works a lot better than many maps
Ye im on iwo jima rn
Op underground is the common map that gets terrible performance for most
atleast i think i am
didn't underground get fixed performance wise with the latest patch? cause i have no issues on that map anymore
ah
Then I probably haven't played it since
What is a good headset which is under Β£50
headset? or can you do headphone?
for budget i would personally get superlux 668b with pad swap and a massdrop minimic
or philips shp9500s if you can get it around 50
if youre set on a headset just search best 50 dollar headsets
im sure hyper x stinger is on that list
Um I mean a headset with a microphone Jack
My brain is not working today
last i recall th hyper x cloud stinger was the go to 50 dollar headset
Bent Headphone Jacks π€’
I have headphones for phones but they are big it has a microphone but only 1 jack i need a spliter so i can use the audio and microphokr at same time
?
@wanton prairiejust download one
So, I have a Ryzen 5 3600, 32GB of RAM, and a GTX 1070, can I run BFV at at least 1080p60? I know when I had my 6600k, it was kinda struggling to hit 60 sometimes. I have a 1080p144hz display though, so 1080p144 would be nice.
Should do with that, it's the threads that would've been an issue with the 6600k
That's what I thought.
I've been a bit bored with playing Overwatch and Squad, need something a bit in-between for once.
Monster hunter world 
Ah damn
Because fuck getting that shit when Iceborne is 2 months away.
I have all Kjarr weapons, basically every deco I need, and hella potions/items.
I know basically every Melee weapon except the Blunt ones.
And the Bowguns are pretty easy to learn.
Bow is, just an excercise in futility because of how pitiful it will be in Iceborne.
I started with bow but found a love of the dual blades and charge blade
So far the others are eh
Don't you dare disgrace the name of the Sword and Shield.
It is literally the best weapon in the game.
Well I mean I used sword and board for a while but it doesn't have the burst damage move of charge blade or bow
No, but it has Combos, Elemental Damage out the ass, and the Clawryuken (in Iceborne)
Wouldn't know about the icebourne changes yet, been staying away from as much of it as possible to suprise myself in January

high
resolution and hz of your monitor?
1080p 72hz
pretty damn sure an rx 580 will get you 70ish fps on high at 1080p
i have a 1060 and get on average 75fps on high settings
and a 580 is better for bfv right?
yus
ok thanks
yea every benchmark i see gives the 580 10 more fps in bfv than a 1060
is INTEL CORE I5-9300H a good cpu?
for a laptop, sure
coupled with a gtx 1050?
well thats not the best for this game, no
im not playing bf5
im just getting it for studying and maybe some low fps games like cs go
for dat is gud
i play on ultra
how about the cpu of amd?
not really
They do
graphics gets in the way
@grand steeple if you getting it for studying get a ryzen 5 3400g with no gpu
well not mainly studying iβd like to play a few old games
even a 2200g. 80$ with really good desktop performance
yeah it will play games
hmmmmmmmmmmmm
that cpu probs would even outperform a 1050
HUH
Can play bfv at 1080p 30fps
BF5 Benchmark @ 1080p Low Preset -- Rotterdam & Fjell 652 Maps Ryzen 3400G -- Vega 11 Test Setup: CPU : AMD Ryzen 5 3400G [ R5 2400G Not Overclocked ] Graphi...

50 FPS on gta v
3400g is better than 7500?
whats better a i5-7300HQ or an i5-9300H
i5 9300h
but trust me man, go for the 3400g
as a cpu it smashes both those
and it has awsome built in graphics
the 3400g isnt a laptop cpu lol
you donβt think I know that 
I think he's pretty hell bent on a laptop lol
Tbh im not planning on getting a gaming pc until i get my own home 
and plus im gonna use a laptop for multiple things not just gaming
the best AMD mobile chip I believe is the 3750H so you can use that for comparison
Good to know
Ryzen 7nm mobile chips are supposed to come out in January
also supposed to see a 7nm desktop APU
I dont think the APUs are going away any time soon lol
Guys, having an issue as BF5 is always offline and can't get online.
All other games work fine except for BF5, even apex and other Origin games work perfect
I tried rebooting, game, PC, router everything but nothing works
So having a little issue at the moment
When I jump into a BF V game it has the loading screen
Then goes straight back to the pick game menu
will usbc 3.1 work with thunderbolt 3?
Dunno
Think only 3.2 gen2 has thunderbolt 3
why does my game keep turning off?
im always salty on pc but admins dont care too much
idk chief. its not for 90% of ppl
Is there any chance anyone could help me out with a freezing issue I have? I've tried so many things on every forum I could find but can't figure it out
wht freezes @crude osprey
@brazen oracle my pc, it's fine anytime I'm using it. But it seems to go to sleep, even with sleep modes disabled, and when I wake it up, it'll either freeze instantly (no windows 10 login text field for the PIN) or it'll start and crash within about 30 seconds. No errors in event manager, no blue or black screen. Just totally hung. I've tried pretty much everything and it seems like such a common issue
I've been spending a week trying to get my dumb M2 SSD working in my server, and tonight I finally discovered that it's because it's a SATA drive and both the adaptor and motherboard slot are for PCIE

AMD stock for the past 30 days
It was worth an ask. Did a clean install 3 days ago and it ran like a champ for a day and a half.
there must be a sleep setting somewhere you missed,else it wouldn't go to sleep mode
bios/windows basic,advanced/3. party programm
for example asus ai suite has a sleep mode that overrides windows,even when it's set to no
I'll have to look into that then. It's really an irritating problem
yeah
and be sure to have the latest bios,specially with a ryzen and win10
and ofc the latest win10 updates
if you have win 10 that is
I did update bios. And the problems seemed to come back once win10 updated after doing the reinstall. But at the same time, I was reinstalling my games and a few 3rd party apps like ICUE and G hub too. So I kinda screwed myself by not just doing one thing at a time to see what might bring the issues back
Guess I could do it again lol
cud it be ur hdd or ssd is on its last legs
It's all new though
I'd not had a PC in 8 or 9 years so in July I just bought a prebuilt
It had a 2t hdd for storage and a 250ssd for v the OS but I swapped out the HDD for an SSD. But the problems were there before that
No Fronlines or domination?! Is this game broken or is Dice that incompetent???
who cares bout those lol
@rigid magnet they took those game modes out ages ago because no one was playing them. all the servers were empty
and incompetent? i would like to see you make a AAA game with that much detail and those graphics and animations
iirc g-hub has a sleep timer @crude osprey ?
I'll look into that too, thanks!
Yes i know lol i was trolling. Whoever's idea it was to get rid of the 2 best gamemodes in the game should be fired!!
They had low player count in countries like Australia. Yes they didn't have as many as Conquest (for example) than in Frontlines and Domination but they would still have at least 10 to 30 servers all the time each! Just because it didnt draw as many people as the running simulator Conquest is, does not mean Dice should ruin the game for thousands of people that loved Frontlines and Domination!!
I know a lot of people that stopped playing once those gamemodes were taken out. SMH. Which is incompetence by Dice. @supple bane
The Battlefield Competitive Community loved those modes.
I know I didn't play much FL because it seemed to allow for enemies to just run behind your spawn and shoot you in the back as you spawn.
I played in ps4 leagues and our drug of choice was squad cq
you dont see it do you ? those servers that are being taken up by those two game modes that only a select few are playing on. could have been used else where. where a much wider audience is available. and if you dont have anything nice to say. either keep it shut, or leave. there are people who love the game (like me) who are obviously gonna get offended when someone says it or its maker are "incompetent"
Our favorite gamemodes were Frontlines and Domination. Playing pubs in SCQ you make the whole other team rage quit if you join with a squad of great players. The only time its fun is when you play comp!
Comp is fun but it's a small segment of the community honestly. They gotta appeal to the masses. It is designed for casual play to that end
yes YOUR. not the player base. you and your group doenst speak for the community, and no. my friends and i dont play try hard, we are just there for a laugh and to have fun. so your completly wrong
Those servers made thousands of people happy and willing to play this game. They were supposed to be permanent gamemodes. Telling me to shut up is very mature of you π you're just as incompetent as dice @granty π π π π
your a lost cause
I think we all love to play this game and have fun, some of us enjoy great competitive games as well which this game does a great job of providing in Domination and Frontlines. Lol okay dude, you can think you won ππππ whatever makes you feel better on the internet π π π @supple bane
Im not going to waste my time dealing with people as close minded as you @supple bane
So why keep tagging them lol
oh so you change your story from "its only fun if you play comp" to "it can be fun both ways"? and like i said, why bring it up in a server full of dedicated people. all you are trying to do is cause trouble
there was litterally ZERO point in what you said
no one wants to know what you think of dicec
I just blocked him lol obviously he isn't worth the time to deal with
so keep it to your self
Dice is a joke
Yeah none of this helped me stop my pc freezing π
do a clean boot and see if it still freezes
i built a new pc yesterday and am thankful it went smoothly
i feel for ppl with pc issues cuz it cud literally be anythingggg causing it
Munchingzia' s or mine?
i5-7400 and rx 580

nice
hey,at what framerate should I be able tor un bf5 at with ryzen 5 2600x and with a 1050ti? because I see videos on youtube with ryzen 5 and they have like 100+ frames and im getting like 40 in singleplayer and when it does go to 60 it doesnt look smooth at all so if someone could help me that would be cool just @ me or DM me
waddupwaddupwaduup
at low probably solid 60 on most older maps
underground and pacific are somtimes iffy
youll get drops of 40
but not below that
so im getting like 40 frames in singleplayer
im running it on medium settings
how much memory?
DDR4 16gigabyte
so what fps should I be getting in singleplayer?
and how do I fix it?
Why is the hit reg on xbox terrible?

i got 70fps average with a gtx 1050 and i5-7400 @limpid void
but i used a performance config. u can find command lines online. gave me like 15fps
@brazen oracle how did you get 15fps?
one sec il send u the command line
go into origin , rightclick bfv, go to game properties, advanced launch options, and paste this there:
-WorldRender.LightTileCsPathEnable 0 -WorldRender.SpotLightShadowmapEnable 0 bfv command lines
this disables alot of extra reflections and shadows, and tones down lighting
also go into the nvidia control panel and make a custom resolution of 1920x960.
this is basically 1080p but with black bars on the top and bottom. it will still look sharp and give u more fps since ur gpu doesnt need to do work in the black areas.
example of how it looks: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wf4yk1teAjA
@limpid void
is this all in files?
google the easy stuff. ull find the answers there
but the complicated stuff i already explained it
ok
thanks
@brazen oracle also do you know how to uncap the 60fps ive disabled vsync and set it to like 200 frames and still capped at 60
idk why its like that. in bfv settings set everything to low. turn frame limiter off
and definitly turn ON future frame rendering
ok
i have this error in my View reliability history, not sure what this is?

Also, is it normal for the event viewer to have errors from time to time?
On a Microsoft article i read, they say errors can be safely ignored, just the critical ones.
Should I be worried?
how do I uncapp my fps in bf5? ive got vsync of and frame limiter is at 200 and im still locked at 60
that sounds like a issue with ur pc and ur pc only
ud need someone there in-person to take a look at it
ima just refund the game to many things to fix
Ive seen videos with the same setup and theres getting like 100+ @brazen oracle
and im getting massive lag and other games im fine
@brazen oracle were will the money get sent to if I refund it?
idk
can someone help me? have small but annoying stutters in my gameplay, am playing with 110 fps on ultra and my 3700x is always at 85%
and gpu at like 30%
ssd or hdd
low gpu usage? try DX11 and Future Frame Rendering ON, fixed the problem for me
These stutters are caused by the CPU when its usage is on 100%, but your ryzen should be capable to handle bf5
and limit your framerate to your monitors refresh rate, so you get more stable frametimes
hi lads! so i really enjoying bf v so far , i have around 50 fps , ocassionally drops to 30 and just stutters like a slideshow from time to time my specs: CPU: Ryzen 2400G OC processor, GPU RADEON RX 580 msi ARMOR oc, 16 gb ddr4 hyperx, all latest drivers and stock values ony GPU and CPU - game is installed on my SSD , i have graphic setting of Jackfrags (almost everything on low exept mesh quality - ultra) - any tips whats to change / update to have a better overall experience and for more stable experience (to eliminate stuttering)
thanks in advence!
try the other dx from the one you are currently using
only DX 11 , when i change do dx12 its just wont load
is you ram 2x8gb?
How many ram slots does your motherboard have ?if itβs 4, is the ram in slot 2 and 4 ?
how do I uncap my frames? ik they can go higher cus I watched yt with the same setups and get 100+fps
@wary nova are you using any overlays or anything linked to the game ? This includes recording software/streaming software ?
only discord overlay , and i tried radeonrelive capturing - same experience same fps
but day to day no additional software only discord overlay
you have future frame rendering on ?
off
turn it on
okay but hardware wise it should play better ? like is switching one thing in settings really can change that much ?
possibly
i was so annoyed i started to look for better cpus
just try it
your specs are fine for this game
thats Granty! thats actually good to hear .. and i dont care about ultra or not - i just want it to be smooth experience
I have ryzen 5 2600x 1050ti and its locked at 60
How do i unlock my fps from 60?
do you have v-sync on ?
and no one with your setup is getting 100 FPS
thatβs a lie
unless they play at 720p
I asked you if you had vsync
What settings are you playing on ?
low
and then I put it on medium aswell stays at 60
this guy has some ultra and low,and gets like 60-70
and you have v-sync turned off ?
what do you have your FPS cap set to ?
are you using future frame rendering ?
is your ram 2x8gb ?
I have 16gb of ram
anyone know how to fix the problem with bfv not booting?
ok
you could check your nvidia driver if the framerate is locked, right click on desktop -> Nvidia control panel -> 3D settings -> second last option should be off
ok ill check in a min
everytime i put my ps4 on restmode it resets the updates why?
then dont put it in restmode^^
ive never had that idk why it resets
check your settings for rest mode
and @dim valve it was on use the 3d settings or something like that
ok
then i dont know
do you use any program like riva tuner or so?
maybe a program in the background is limiting
i set my system to 144hz so i get butter smooth frametimes, otherwise i get stuttering
no i dont
get a 144Hz one
what GPU do you have?
it has a VA panel, so forget the "1ms response time"^^
i would go for 1440p 144hz when the GPU can handle it
6, because the price is little bit too high for 1080p
@limpid void do you want to buy it?
what is your current?
1080p 60hz?
i would not go for curved, look for a normal one with IPS and 144hz, maybe under 200
whats bad about curved?
when you go for 35" ultra wide screen you go with curved, you dont need it on 27" 16:9, and curved monitors are usually more expensive
but its your decision, i would read/watch tests for these types of monitors, maybe there is a top 5 of some sort
my origin does not start up ?
@wary nova is your issue fixed ?
@grand steeple you know 4k 144hz monitors are 1000$ minimum right?
donβt get a 4k one then
Honestly on the higher end IPS and VA monitors that response time isn't a big deal
help
pc does not recognize x one controller
via usb
it vibrates for once and does nothn
light does not work either
changed cable fixed it
glad to help
quick question. can i run a 1440p 144hz monitor over hdmi ?
Yeah, display port and DVI support 144hz
does dvi support 1440p @ 144hz ?
cuz i have a dvi cable lying around somewhere. could put it to some good use
oh 1440p mhh no clue
You could try it
I know it does support it on 1080p but I don't think it matters if it's 1080 or 1440
i assume this is a yes ?
that paragraph is kinda confusing
ok nvm. it doesnt. cap for 1440p is 30hZ

here is says if you have hdmi 2.0 you can run 1440p 144hz. how would i know which variant of hdmi i have ?
never use hdmi,always display port
and dvi is like,really ancient 
As granty said you can use HDMI for that refresh and res, but HDMI is notoriously fussy both with the cables and the ports
Display port is practically guaranteed to work at that res and refresh, and dvi-d still works great, the main reason it was fazed out is the size of the port is ridiculous
Yo dudes, is a i7-6700hq 1060 6gb 16gb ram laptop good enough to run battlefield v with 60fps stable?
no cuz eventualy its gona get hot
and slow itself down
a desktop 6700 and 1060 would do it no problem. constant 80fps +
Aight lemme add on, with a laptop cooler and throttle stop undervolting
@brazen oracle
Alright, thanks
Great, thanks bro, now I can kamikaze in 60fps
Oculus Quest 128gb good VR Headset?
dude you still have a shit monitor
you need to get one of those first lol
prioritise
you have a 2070 and 8700 yet you have an old square monitor. and you want to spend money on a vr headsett
that honestly doesnt make sense
yes but people say i am not sense
so just lets get to the point
is oculus quest 128gb good?
idk anything about vr. but i can tell you one thing. you need a new monitor
more than you need a headset
why tho
since i am more of the visuals guy
your gpu isnt strong enough for 4k gaming tho
well we pay for 100mbps
but on speed test we get like 30mbps
but usually at downloading games 6-10 megabytes
hmmm
well now that i think of it
the majority is 4-6 megabytes
when i am alone home
idk, I tried a 1440p monitor once and I could still easily see pixel edges without anti-aliasing
1440p is 78% more pixels than 1080p
4K is 300% more pixels than 1080p
HDMI 2.3 or something like that supports 1440p 144hz iirc
hdmi 2.1 is the newest and there is nothing that supports it fully atm
only some lg tv's have it,that's it
and they support not all functions
gotta wait for next year for full hdmi 2.1 support with the next tv line up and the new consoles
maybe some pc graphic cards will have it too,but no signs about that atm
What? no? the ryzen 5 2600 is 6 core 12 thread at 3.9ghz Vs 4c4t at 3.6ghz. and it's cheaper
Oh
i can change the cpu lol
in a laptop? you can't
M8. a.) It's extreamly rare you can change laptop CPU's as they are soldered into the motherboard. And even if you could you can't just switch from intel to ryzen like that
even if you can which I doubt still. You won't be able to change it to ryzen
It's completely wrong socket and chipset
ik i wont be able to change to ryzen its g mate thanks
and if it's a laptop i3 it will certainly hold back a 1060
I assumed you were talking about the 8100. as it's the most common
Oh ok. Yeah it's fine with a 1060
ok thanks granty,
You can change an order on a site before you buy it, but you cant swap it
ik that
There's few laptops that swap, and that usually comes at a premium. Why a laptop over a desktop?
but there are so many negatives to a laptop.
i dont pick up on 75% of things using a monitor
i cant concentrate and i get a headache
my eyes arent that great and go out of focus every now and again
I mean honestly that's fine, you can use a laptop if you want
Have you got the 1060 in it or eGPU?
nah mate
Which laptop you looking at?
am i allowed to post a link?
Yup
Oh you're an Aussie?
oi m8
Hi fellow Aussie 
gday
Okay, so I probs wouldn't reccomend that one just because of the i3/1060 mix
alright
why?
i3 8300 is perfectly fine with a 1060
It will be a bottleneck if not now then soonish

my friend has a Samsung SyncMaster225UN (he got it in 2010 I think, yes I know it's old), he almost never used it but it's the only monitor he got now but the touch buttons kind of died and now their sound plays repeatedly at random times and he can't stop it once it starts doing it. Anyone knows if this is possible to fix easily at home? like opening it and somehow disabling the whole touch thing to avoid that or something?
i don't know much about monitors sadly
So my support wonβt let me use any of the lvl 8 unlocks
Hello i need help with bf4
@thin horizon if you want a nice laptop that runs good and looks amazing, but comes kinda costly then get an Alienware, here's a link
I own one, and it's a beauty, not going to lie,
and the monitor is perfect size to.
I do reccomend getting another keyboard and mouse, cause I'm weird and can't stand using a keyboard on a laptop when gaming
where else are you going to get one brand new? it wont be any cheaper at best buy lol
idk anyone that recommends a gaming laptop unless its absolutely necessary
you pay a ton for the performance and no matter what youll sacrifice something (normally thermal throttling unless you want your laptop to sound like a jet engine)
guys
the pc i spent 925$ on
just got 350$ back from the seller
so 500$ for an 8700k 1080ti 32gb ram 3tb hdd 240gb ssd x370 msi board
actually 425$*
howd you get 350 back?
paypal resolution center as there was issues with the pcie that was minor, but the seller was generous
so i got the pc for 500$ basically
jesus thats a deal
thats and insane deal really
nahphon now i can get a decent monitor and stop using a 2011 60hz 1080p as my main!
omg
lol
500 bucks will get you the dell s2716dg
can you post pic for me
man i really am chasing the dream
reminder, had a system with a 970 and i7 2600 and about 260$ 1 1/2 months ago
flipped an alien ware and that pc to get this pc
i β€οΈ craigslist
now its time for monitors
i have 3 rn but they are all fairly old and not impressive, and i want a main thats top shape
like 144hz 2k atleast
the dell i recommended is 144hz, 2k, and gsync
things might have changed, but when i got it, it was the best bang for buck monitor with these sepcs
60hz and no gsync
(gsync is fucking phenomenal)
id rather go 60hz gsync instead of 144hz no gsync
is g27c2 basd
wait oh hold on idk if its 2k
nvm
ima try adn get more budget pcs tho lmao
keep flippin
lets see where im at when the 3 series comes out
tho if i ever buy a pc to flip it aint gonna have a non K processor
that k adds a lot of flash to any browsing as its over hyped to OC
even when you know fuckin wont ποΈ ποΈ
also no ryzen cpu as avg consumer buying used probably isnt as informed as they would be with intel CPUs
ive seen the dell for around 350 before
also need a new desk
hmm do you think ill be able to get a good monitor before the 21st so ill be in time for grind week?
lolz
a lot of black friday deals are already revealed
if its not close to used i dont want to waste money
i think 50 bucks off is normal for black friday
obviously depends on the product
something that sells for 50 bucks isnt gonna see 50 bucks off
but i would say most things above 200 bucks would see about 50 bucks off
yo
i got a windows 10 pro n uni key but it aint registering on the upgrade page in settings
@storm osprey
?

flavvy needs help
but why ping him ?
since flavvy needs help
and nyphon isnt the only person in this server that can give that help.
true
But giving the context that he is the one that helped flavvy earlier i thought it would be ok
i dont mind, i was just confused
usually when someone pings you it has to do with them
true haha
i also dont know much about windows keys, its been like 5+ years since ive messed with windows and i had no problems
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/k9gnL2 @everyone is this any good?
@thorn nova CPU bottleneck
downgrade the graphics card, get a better CPU and 16GB of decent speed ram
that way you only have to upgrade graphics card in the future
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/LRv67W @thorn nova
here
also I see you didn't add storage so I assume you already have storage?
yeah definite bottleneck for that one
which one?
i assume they are playing bfv, which yea the 2200g will suffer the 2060
but most games that are fine with a quad core the 2200g/2060 system will get better fps
is 240hz worth it?
idk what i should be looking at since im not looking to spend all my money on monitors
not really, you need a very powerful rig to get anywhere near 240fps on most games
and even the most sensitive people wont see the difference between 240 and 165
i get constant 200 fps on BFV most of the time
thats because thats the cap
so 144 then
i want to spend 200~ max(probably ebay or amazon
if you have a high budget 16(5)5
i want the best best i can strive for
if you dont have the budget then just 144
165?
yeah
there is 155hz and 165 hz monitors
my cousin has a 165hz monitor for that fact
should i go for 4k or 1440p
1440p
4k 144hz costs >1000 dollars
im planning on buying this
1440p, 144hz 250 pound
curved too
im told that out of the box it has bad blacks. but they can be adjusted in the settings and after playing around for a bit you can get the colours pretty bang on. also seen a few people complain about dead pixles on arrival but have had the monitor swapped out in a giffy. so i think these down sides are worth the price
i would only go 240hz if you are STUPIDLY SERIOUS about your gaming, like pro status serious
outside of that its not worth it imo
im still gonna stick with my theory that you cant see the difference between that and 165 hz
i am extreme
its probably more of a feeling when you go from 144 to 240
personally, unless youre pro the .1 second you get information faster on 240hz isnt worth the price
doesnt seem theres any 1440p 240hz monitors wtf
or any that arent extremely pricey
id imagine its hard to balance all that processing information
this monitor that im looking at above. it is marketed as free sync, i have an nvidia gpu. how would i know if i can use free sync ?
lol not even the 2080Ti is good for 1440p 144hz
unless you play many games on low/medium settings
ill get about 70 fps in bfv on 1440p
@supple bane there are sites that list nvidia compatible freesync monitors
youd have to check that
and i play bfv on low settings with a 4790 and 1080 and get at least 100 fps, normally 110-120 fps
at 1440p
whens black friday
ive got a pretty good idea on what fps i get from what reso's from dsr. ik its not 100% accurate but like i said, i have where abouts
@silent steppe on amazon it starts the 22nd of novemver
the day after thanksgiving
but blackfriday is the 29th
amazon do a whole week of sales going from the 22nd to the 29th
is rocksoul shit
a lot of places are already doing black friday
idk i just want something not too expensive but that wont give me that lip bite of regret
i literally play 24/7 for reference
yeah we can tell from your feckin level
lol
do you not work?
i plead the 5th
IMO
adaptive sync > resolution > hz
(assuming at least 1080p and atleast 144hz)
Is it true that PAL ainβt as good as NTSC?
it should be 1ms right?
you really wont tell the difference imo
doesnt matter to me
my monitor is set to 5ms and im still stomping people
i just want whatever consciously and subconsciously will benefit me the most
any edge
even microscopic
what really counts is true latency
hmmmm
idk a single monitor that actually has a 1ms response time
this monitor is advertised as 1ms
do you have an amd or nvidia gpu?
its ultimately up to you what you want
1080ti
i hate jaggies and screen tearing more than anything
lol dont we all
imo 1440p, 144hz, and gsync at 27" is my sweet spot
just gotta figure out what you want dude
what about adaptive sync you mentioned that
adaptive sync is either gsync or freesync
TECHNICALLY there is something called "adaptive Vsync" as well iirc
but i use adaptive sync as a term for both gsync and freesync
@obtuse kettle would a laptop be better or would a desktop?
freesync is slightly, and i mean slightly worse than gsync, but freesync monitors are cheaper, and freesync works one nvidia gpus as well
@prime jasper price to performance desktop without a doubt
i'd go for a desktop tbh. laptops tend to be pricier when it comes to getting beefier performances
hardly anyone advices to get a laptop unless its absolutely necessary
hell i even suggest splitting a budget for a desktop and getting a chromebook over getting a gaming laptop
Get a desktop. You can upgrade your PC in the future and your performance would be better. Laptops you can upgrade a few things but a desktop basically anything
desktop for gaming 100% and even if you need to work on the go, workflow optimised laptops are so much easier to recommend than gaming laptops
feel like i shouldnt buy any monitor that isnt gsync
youd have to do research to see which freesync monitors work with nvidia
btw not the highest quality but theres a 90$ rosewill 2 arm monitor mount thats 20$ right now on newegg
if anyones interested ill post link
post away
ok just checking
good deal tho
i plan on getting something similar for when i get my new display
we are kinda in the same boat here, both looking for displays
i plan on getting a curved 1440p 144hz as a main, horizontal obviously. and have my current monitor either above. or verticle on the side
i cant really say, what im looking at is 250 pound and it is the exact same specs as that
but there must be something to warrent it so expensive
i assume that has g-sync looking at the price.
@silent steppe dell has better reviews and is 400 bucks, ive seen it on sale around 350
curved meme
i need that fucking snake oil
im dead set on gsync
@storm osprey would you say gsync is a necessity in buying for pure gaming?
probs yeah
uhhhh, i honestly dont think pros use gsync
since gsync technically adds slight lag
its not vsync levels of input lag
but its not the lowest it can go
again, unless your a super self try hard or trying to go pro or are pro, it wont be a problem
i want try hard big boy shit
well go 24" 1080p 240hz
Didnt you have widescreen tho?
nyphon
s2716dg
most recommended right?
theres one for 249$ on amazon, should i snag?
% first
250? thats gotta be used right?
yes
free shipping
i can take a risk
that being said
should i go for it?
wyt
if youre willing to take the risk on no warranty
2716 is the best?
i wouldnt call it the best, but its the best bang for buck for what it offers last i checked
(which was years ago)
If I was to buy a 1440p monitor and wanted to play 1080p on a few games cough cough ark would it look like 1080p? Or would it be a blurry mess ?
because I struggle to play ark at 1080p so eint no way 1440p is happening
buy 1080p monitor for 1080
buy 1440 for 1440
oh ok. Thank you
1080p on a 27" will looks like a mess period
ight its not that bad
ppl have been usin 1080p 40 inch tvs for years
just dont be usin 1080p on 1440p monitor
or even 1440p on a 4k monitor.
whats a good mic setup
Anyone know if mainstream DDR5 is coming in 2020?
