that sounds like a cpu bottleneck still tbh
Though if he gets 70fps ultra on bfv then maybe it could be something else
also on bf1
i can run ultra now, but it drops every couple of seconds
thats what im hoping to fix
TSMC 5nm production will go into larger scale next month
IEDM reported it's 84% more dense than 7nm, TSMC themselves estimate 87%
What
yes
comparing Ryzen 3000 (7nm) to Ryzen 5000 (5nm), we could see up to 2x performance-per-watt
imagine Ryzen 7 3700X performance at 35 watts
nah give me 2 ryzen 3700x performance for 70wat
(doubt thats how it works but im a simpleton)
85% improvement to transistor density is gonna be an insane jump nonetheless
especially for RDNA3 (3rd gen Navi)
power efficiency is going to be so good that achieving playable 4K gaming on a 75W GPU is a possibility
Hell since RDNA2 is a 50% efficiency jump, that would mean RX 5700XT performance at 130W TDP
Hey guys! Who can help me with running the game in non-safe mode? This is in the advanced startup settings (who didn't know)) (I Also want to say that I used a translator, so my English may seem strange)) Thank you in Advance!
@prime jasper I may be able to help you....Могу я Вам чем-то помочь?
Hi o/ Does anyone know if BF5 got the new DLSS 2.0 ?
it wont @grim nexus
at least for a while
MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries and Control are the first two games to support DLSS 2.0
Wolfenstein: Youngblood will support it soon
only good game that supports it is Control
What is wolfenstein youngblood. 80's vaporwave dead malls Aesthetic?
Synthwave
Aaaah rip ok
sad, because the current dlss on bf is shitty
we win a lot of fps but the game is just blurry
anyway, ty for the reply
I think if you could get around 250 more and build the PC yourself it would be way better
yep would want to do that, can't
limit is 750ish
and my mom wont allow me to build one
It can run BFV, but I doubt It's a good deal (like most pre-builts). A Ryzen 1500 is less than $100 and a GTX1060 just above $150 with 1660s at around $200. You also don't know if they cheaped out on the mobo, PSU, memory, ... But if you can't build it yourself you're not left with many options.
sure it'll run it
Also the one you linked a lot of reviews are saying the PC has low quality components
That's what I suspected, most pre-builts do that to keep up the profit margins.
this would be better for hardly any more
ooh that looks great
ty
lets hope i can do enough surveys
surbeys?
surveys
bruh 73 dollar shipping
see this?
do it, its stupid easy and you dont even have to use the card
or go on dells website and see if you can score a better deal there
oh okay, ill try to do the amazon rewards visa card thing
@prime jasper i saved up for a pc doing surveys for amazon gift cards, cant use other wbesites
@prime jasper @prime jasper that RX 580 4GB they put in those are hot and loud
If you got something better at the price point post it lol
Yeah so a ram bottleneck....gotta make a tradeoff somewhere
With 750 you can't really get that far
Thats pretty decent
ye
@latent light @prime jasper @molten coral https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07Q3G3B67/ref=cm_sw_r_apa_i_ppQEEbQVY6T5P this?
I just realized that I have to buy a monitor as well
All for 750?
mouse and keyboard too?
I think you are better off buying the one Grim posted. Pretty decent
Also if you also have to get a monitor, mouse and keyboard with that you are better off getting a console at this point..
when you're going below $700 for a gaming PC, you might as well build one because your prebuilt options become very thin
He said his mom wouldnt let him build one lmao
@prime jasper the main issue with the Dell Inspiron PC is that the graphics card is hot and loud because they put the cheapest model available in it
it will run at 90C or higher
no
Aw
unless you buy a AIO watercooler and install it on the card lmao
also there are only used ones available
probably ones people returned because of how loud it was
Maybe
@latent light this? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07XY1TKV9/ref=cm_sw_r_apa_i_T0REEb2WYXQJF
would be better to have a 6 core with 12 threads
So, I have a question. How do you enter into a giveaway, or do the mods or admin randomly select anyone on the server?
Yeahhh I really want that one but I dont think my mom will let me go to 800
Barely 750 tbh
I just don't think that i5-9400F will run future Battlefield games well
since it only has 6 threads
but at the moment that one you linked is good
wait wait wait
it only has the regular 1650 and not the 1650 Super
oof
No u
@prime jasper nvm that one you linked isn't really worth the money
Oof
6 cores is enought for 3 4 years
@latent light theres also this https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07NV3PBQD/ref=cm_sw_r_apa_i_ucSEEbNFYQ8ED
Battlefield V needs at least 6 cores or 8 threads to play stable but having 8 cores or 12 threads helps a lot more
1060 3GB is pretty bad
Potentially lower performance
although only 8GB ram which kinda sucks if you're playing BFV
I could get a better PC than that for 700 dollars
his parents won't let him build one
costs $50 or more to have someone assemble it for you
Hm, could be potentially worth it? Some of the pcs are insanely overpriced
I put together my PC and installed windows on it in less than an hour lmao
where u live at crabdul
That one is as terrible as 1650 Super
Oh
5500XT, really?
I dont know much about cpus and gpus, sorry lol
@latent light oh, I'm also planning on upgrading parts over the years, so hopefully I'll be able to keep up with games and stuff
I would highly recommend a Ryzen CPU then
much more upgradability compared to Intel
just get someone to build you
You will get quality components, cases and warrenty service
Pre built PC can use used components with no warrenty, especially on site like Wish or Amazon
one issue with doing your own build is finding a windows bootable USB drive
Its easy to be honest
and you gotta buy a windows key if you don't want a watermark on your screen
pirated keys don't always work
It works just like normal key and its in your motherboard
Tbh cheap windows key are just keys that leaked from a MAK or digital distribution
They used the key already and there is still some activation times left
So instead of throwing it away to be expire, they sell it at low prices to regain some budget
Oh
Ryzen 5000 will be insane
oof
Gtx 3000 series coming for sure this year right?
yes
Nvidia is waiting for AMD to launch their new GPUs first tho
Radeon naming one of their prototypes as "Nvidia killer" actually has them on the edge of their seat lol
RDNA2 with 80 compute units would kill Nvidia in the high-end
Hurry up amd
I imagine that 3080 will cost around 2080 super prices but obviously beat it.
get a better internet lel
@storm osprey it's insane that the GPU in the PS5 runs up to 2.23 GHz, that's more than a highly overclocked and watercooled RX 5700XT...
that's actually a higher clock speed than any dedicated graphics card in existence that isn't on liquid nitrogen cooling lmao
I guess the claimed 50% efficiency improvement over first gen Navi (RDNA1) is gonna improve clock speed
Hey I got a question
i got i7 7700k and a GTX1070, add that to a 60HZ 4k monitor - everything is great..
except on Iwo Jima, where my fps drops from regular 80-90 to 24 when flying an airplane. Like it drops randomly and makes me crash my planes alot.
like a 1 second freeze
I play at 2k resolution
on High settings
ONLY on iwo jima it does that
those specs should be able to handle 1080p with an absolute breeze, i would try maybe repair game files, as if you are saying it only occurs of iwo jima when in a plane, it sounds more like a bug than a perforamcne issue
ill try that
and maybe disable dx12 cause that can cause stutters depending on how your system handles it
i doubt it would be dx 12, if it was that his entire game would stutter, not just one very specific place and time
is origin service down today?
is it down in Eu?
ok, lol it just was an update to origin launcher
xd
its becoming more like windows
very true
@latent light hopefully that means a good response from AMD
i got a gsync monitor so im only going nvidia
my game doesnt want to load in to matches just show tips and quest
I will be building a new PC soon, how do think a ryzen 2600X with a GTX 1660 Super would run battlefield on medium settings?
On 1080P
it'll work fine
make sure to get 16GB dual channel RAM
a 3600 would make more sense though
Sure, will probably run fine on ultra, let alone medium
true, either a 2600 or 3600, 2600x makes no sense for the price
Ryzen 5 1600 AF is even better value than all of those
a 1600 AF is basically a 2600, but slightly cheaper, so yes
Here it's only a 20eur difference, fucked up prices I guess (1600AF is 100-110eur)
@supple bane I know, but the X only costs 5€ more in Lithuania
oh maybe it would be worth it then
yeah the 2600X has a 300 MHz higher boost than the 2600 and a better stock cooler
140€ compared to 130-135€
In that case go for it
Yeah the cooler makes it worth it IMO
true
And should I get the RTX 2060 for 275€ or the GTX 1660 Super for 250€?
that's cheap for a 2060, which model is it
2060 if it isn't a crap model
Most of them cost at least 300eur as far as I know (310-350 mostly)
oof
Yeah there is this site that has all the online sellers and compares the prices
And it wasnt working
Its a Palit one
here, the 1660 Super is $230 and 2060 is $300
For 1080p 60fps the 1660 super will do fine
how much is a 5500xt over there
1660 Super is probably the best choice
Yeah, most of them sell for around 350 now
while the 5600 XT can be found for as low as $260 lol
and equal or just a tad faster than the 2060
Normally I'd say the 5600XT isn't worth it, but if it's that close to the 1660 super
this model is $290, very good cooler
also looks nice
also Xbox Game Pass for 3 months and Resident Evil 3 remake comes with it
i would easily go for a 5600xt over 2060 if the 2060 is more than 20 bucks
@latent light If you care about those games that that's like an extra $75 saved
Here the difference is often less than 50 eur though (sometimes only 20), so it's way more tempting to skip the 5600xt
oh shit even the $180 5500XT comes with those games
True, around 300-320 in Belgium. Too close to a RTX2060 imo

Hier, erste Hilfe
i have rtx 2060 original playing at 1440p and turning down some of the settings, my performance is good for the near $400 i spent, its a great deal at $300
i have the gigabyte oc model
AMD's GPU source code is now up for auction for $100 million
lmao scam city
It's worth maybe $1000 tops lmao
They'll change the source code and refine things to the extent that the present source code probably won't even work without being edited before the next gen consoles and graphics cards ship to retailers, and you can take that bet to the bank
Q4 expected launch
thats like Q2 away!
thanks scan.....
if its just barely better than a 2080 super and costs about the same ill be pissed
it will be better than a 2080Ti
yes
yes
anyone use secretlab chairs? they have a sale for like 125$ off and its tempting me
375 aint worth it?
not for me no.
its a chair... id rather buy a 150 buck office chair which would offer just as much comfort
just an office chair would have less features
staples hyken!
i personally love mesh chairs
what features?
I know a few people with secretlab chairs
living in arizona, i love mesh chairs
they love them
oh yeah, that one looks comfy too nyph-kun
adjustable arm rests, more tilt. more hight adjust etc @prime jasper
@storm osprey does that staples chair have a back that pivots independently of the seat?
like twists?
like if you lean back, does the whole seat tilt back or the just the backrest?
butt seat would stay still and you can twist and back will go with you?
ohh gotcha
uhhh im pretty sure it doesnt but not certain
im not home
i bet its comfy. but i gotta admit, god is that thing ugly
hyken has a mesh bottom too though
yeah that hyken looks pretty comfy
yeah that looks awsome
boo pandemic price increase
once my chair breaks im getting one, my fiance got one and she loves it
when shes not home i occasionally steal her chair to game in
ive had my current chair for 4-6 years, its not a stapled hyken though
your pc looks like a chair
your pc looks like a box
your pc looks like a owo
someone gift me a rtx 3080

you never know, you might ask and it might work
@storm osprey ask and you shall receive
cant send pics sorry
wait
http://letmegooglethat.com/?q=someone+gift+me+a+rtx+3080 @storm osprey
Shitte caard
here is my 2070s
Did that comes with a logitech mouse?
gpu didnt work
gonna have to get an rma on it
i noticed that the power connectors arent sinking in all the way, which might have something to do with it
@supple baneyou also face problems in life?
dont limp wrist the power connections now
gotta make sure that stupid little tab snaps over the lip
yeah figured that one out, it just doesnt work
Haha bought offline or online
online
dont even know if i want that now at this point
this has really taken my heart out of tinkering with my pc
i said 3080
so if 2000 series launched in september, is that the expectation for 3000 series?
I said stop being poor
@prime jasper i cant
What are people's opinions on ultrawide monitors for gaming?
Im thinking about a 144hz IPS 16:9 monitor or a 75Hz IPS 21:9 ultrawide
Its hard picking all the parts, so I migh buy pre-built, its 50€ cheaper than buying everything and putting it together yourself
with what card?
@gloomy gyro most things are tailored for individuals and what they want/need imo
my personal sweet spot is 27" 1440p 144hz with gsync
The build Im going to get has a ryzen 5 3600 sith gtx 1660 Ti
If I were to spend the same amount for not pre-built I would get the ryzen 5 2600x and the 1660 super
Im looking for 1080P monitors
On 1440p its hard to make use of the 144hz monitor
so pre built is 3600 and 1660ti and if you built yourself you could get a 2600x and 1660 super?
can someone help me fix bf4 kicked by pnkbuster or is it literally impossible to play in 2020 becuase no "fix" has fixed anything for me
punkbuster is anti cheat right? idk if there is a fix other than asking to get unbanned
im not banned though lol im just getting kicked by it
both pnkbster a and b are running in services.msc
yeah but what is it detecting that its kicking you for?
i honestly would have no idea
i have discord open steam bluetooth samsung megician for samsung hdds and ssds
radeon software for gpu
try turning off lighting sync apps, mouse/kb software and macros, exit spotify, exit overclocking utilities etc
try closing discord and samsung then, like totally exiting not just minimizing
@storm osprey yes
Its 820€ pre-built, if I use exactly same parts and do it myself its like 920€
thats not really the best way to go around
By the way, what is thedifference between VA and IPS panels?
Im looking at 2 monitors and I cant choose between them
Both are 1080P 144Hz, and one is VA, the other one is IPS
Sort of a compromise between TN (fastest response times) and IPS (best viewing angles and colour accuracy). The problem is that it often ends up being mediocre at both. Some VA panels also have problems with ghosting.
Most of the time I would go for IPS, unless you play competitive and really need to shave off those ms. Low response times IPS panels do exist, but they're more expensive.
basically tn is the fastest, ips is slowest but best colors/angles, va is in the middle
though the differences in response time really isnt that much to say tn is worth it for response it
I think so too
yes it IS faster, but youre talking split seconds faster
unless youre a pro that literally needs every advantage you can get, theres no reason for it
(imo same goes for 240hz)
if i were to buy a panel right now and assuming prices are about the same for the same specs between tn and va, i would probably go va
Ok
Guess I will go with the IPS one, 144hz 1080P IPS for 170€ seems to be a good deal
Its the AOC 27G2U5
imo ips is really for people who care for color accuracy and dont play competitive
but this is where you get what fits yourself
My Origin client is stuck in "Installin Latest Version of Origin"
Anyone had same experience?
Guys is there anyway to get full speed if your mobile internet speed is limited.My internet is limited to 2mb
If you mean getting 2 out of 2Mbs you cant the only way to speed up your internet is to talk to the internet distributor
Also, I would recommend checking how many devices are connected to the internet simultaneously
@frank raftNo its for specific pack ..only on my mobile data sim
They are giving unlimited internet but speed is limited
so what cap you bandwidth
Well, of course mobile data speed is not going to be fast enough, if you are able to use an optic (cable) internet or Wi-Fi of course both of those need to be available in your region. If you are unable to do that you can try a different pack but you wont be able to overclock your internet over 2Mbs not even get the full 2Mbs speed as there is always atleast a small drop in the speed
Your sim card or your phone
No that sim now giving 256kb max download on that unlimited pack but on other pack it give 4mb download
So they restricted so that one can use more data
Anyone in the UK on Virgin wifi?
cus im on it too and its been awful the past few days
ive been getting 100+ping on games and its hard to play them
What's the best gaming laptop right now? $1000
@ashen etherbuy pc ,
@prime jasper I'm pretty sure if he wanted to he'd buy a desktop, he's looking for a laptop though so.
¯_(ツ)_/¯

Best pc is the Ryzen Nintendo wii
anyone know the optimal graphic settings for 1080 ti i7 7700 cpu for atleast 60 fps for 4k
a mix of medium and low probably
Start on medium. If you drop below 60 mix it with low. Start with turning down post-processing and shadows/lighting first in that case (eat the most fps). If you get enough fps on medium (without drops), you can try turning some less intensive setting up to high.
It's from a while ago, but it will show you which settings affect performance the most
I know this is not normal at all, but my CPU is running at 115°C
oof
I have a i7 9700K (not oc)
that doesnt sound right
yeah
whats reading the temp?
Please don’t kill me but it’s a pre built
AIO
Which probably is why my thermals on my CPU are so garbage
cuz they definitely cheaped out on it
115C should trip a shutdown
youre dead
so...you might want to contact them and get a warranty claim
no thermal paste
probably that
yeah
I bought some a while ago for when I cleaned my PC
Didn't check under the cooler tho
Honestly I think I should just upgrade everything
Cuz I've had this desktop for about a year and everyone says the PSUs only last about 14 months
so i might just get a new cooler when I get the power supply
what you mean "upgrade everything"
yeah no just check the thermal paste first
The mobo, cooler, and power supply
dont jump to upgrading random stuff
why upgrade mobo?
Cuz I wanna oc my CPU to get the most out of it since it’s a 9700K
And because I have a prebuilt the motherboard is shit for overclocking
yeah I'm worried about that too
you can see if fans turn or listen for the water to flow
I remember when I tried oc a couple months ago my cooler made an awful squeaking noise so I just reverted it back to factory settings
My fans are all on but can't hear the water flow
should I put it under load?
like launch a game or something?
no dude check the paste first
then see the temps
stop messing with it until you do that
fair enough
How good a pc do you need to play Bf1?
check the system requirements
I have 32gb ram, i7-4900
thats fine
But only an I4400 integrated gpu
But that's below minimum requirements for all the games I play and I play them anyway
you might have to play in a lower res to get 60 FPS but I could be wrong
Oh that's fine then idc about FPS anyway
yeah that igpu aint gonna work at all
good luck playing league of legends at 30 fps...
No I'm on a desktop
Hmm
Can you get refunds on Bf1 within a certain number of hours playing?
I'll just play it and see since all my other games have a higher minimum required GPU than I have and they run fine
isnt 4900 a mobile cpu?
Well it's in a desktop
Honestly just buy a GTX 1030 if you play games so much lol
It's not my pc
I think he means 4790
It's an old work pc my dad's uni forgot about
well now its yours
And they haven't asked for it for years
and you should get a used 1060 or 570/580 and call it good
you can stick a gtx1650 in it with no external power needed
since business machines dont usually have gpu power
When the amd range was on sale
When they released their new range of gpus
But I was scared I'd just break it in the end and I didn't need it
Can't break your pc if your pc doesn't work to begin with 
of course it doesnt come with misc visual C redistributables installed
those arent necessary for windows to run
the installer in question should detect and install it
that error means it failed to install or you have a damaged installation
@prime jasper redownloaded it 10 times and didn't work haha
Had to install it from Microsoft website :)
Yup thats one way
I've never had this problem with previous installs tho? :₩
:)
How comes it happend this time?
Someone messed up with the exe?
Exe
G4900 is a Celeron CPU, not a mobile processor. It's just garbage.
It has onboard graphics, but they're just good enough to display an image on the PC
And maybe run Daggerfall at 60FPS
GT 1030 might actually be bottlenecked by a G4900
I'd go with like a GT 640 4GB or something.
It's 4GB DDR4, but it's actually pretty good for older games.
Hey everyone, got a question. Running on a ps4. Any idea what to do when you get stuck at connecting? Have ps+ and can play other games online but not bf4. Uninstalled, reinstalled signed out and in to ps+. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
RTX 3090 should be 40% faster than the 2080Ti
12GB GDDR6 at 18 Gbps
sucks that they are going with 10nm and not 7nm
actually it appears that only Datacenter will be on 7nm, not general consumer GPUs
for this next generation
When this gpu will be released?
why would they call it 3090?sounds like a marketing disaster
Usually the 90 was reserved for dual GPUs like the GTX 590 and 690
I doubt Nvidia will ever launch another dual GPU for general consumers since there's no point in them and they don't sell that much
So Nvidia using 90 instead of 80Ti is possible
Maybe they want to be closer to AMD's GPU naming
you're right,forgot about those duals,but abandon the 80ti naming would be a huge mistake imo
I wish they removed the 'Ti' naming entirely
it was dumb when it came out 7 years ago
with the 780 Ti
welp,ppl are used to the current naming scheme,constantly changing it is confusing af stares at intel
or renaming/rebranding the same model stares at amd
on the other hand the marketing guys need something to do,what else are they good for 
the dumb thing about Ti is that it means Titanium, which has nothing to do with a graphics card
it doesnt mean anything iirc
its just, what nvidia decided to call it
ok nvm ignore that
for some reason i had it caked in my brain that it didnt mean anything
maybe the thought behind it was like titanium = slightly smaller version of the titan?dunno
BF5 is more performance intensive than Apex right
yes, far more than Apex
yeah a lot more CPU demanding
I basically started with the minimum specs (i5-6600K and GTX 1060 6GB) and the game was very choppy and unplayable imo but then I upgraded to the i7-9700K and kept my GTX 1060 6GB and I play on low and cap my fps at 144 - only dips down during times of massive explosions and when rendering far distances
I'd love to get a 20XX series GPU but might end up waiting for the 30XX series to come out instead
Im about to buy BFV and have an i5 7700K hopefully that will be enough
your i5 is a gen higher than my i5 was.. hopefully it'll be fine
i5-7700K?

don't you mean 7600K
@summer comet the game needs more than 4 cores to run stable
your problem could be ram related
I've always had 16GB DDR4 so it wasn't ram
is it single or dual channel
got them in the correct slots too?
if you have 4 ram slots, put them in the 2nd and 4th slot
Always worked fine for every other game. I no longer have the issue now that I upgraded so it doesn't really bother me anymore why it didn't work back then
I need help I can't install BFV
hello i searh help 😦 in german or turkish
da steht das sich den spiel nicht gekauft habe xd
2 spiele sind futsch
english only please
this is an english only server im afraid.
Even though I bought the game it says that I didn't buy it
i use translate
what can I do now?
did you buy it from origin ?
yes
try restart origin
I've been playing for months and now there is suddenly a problem
I did that
I bought battlefield 1 and battlefield 5 now they're both gone
call origin tech support
as a fast translation; Rufen Sie EA technischen Support an
granty you playing bfv today mate?
I have been playing all day with a few friends I know irl, I'm taking a break atm @sinful mantle
I am not able to get bf 5. It keeps loading forever and when it finally works it pops up with an error
Is there a fix so I can actually get the game?
Damn some dude won ps and xbox
is their a way to make battlefield 5 scale with nvlink i am gaming at 4k have dual 2080tis it seems BFV likes to use only one card
yeah BFV doesn't like dual GPUs
even if you find a work around, it will be a bit stuttery and might get some artifacts
@prime jasper
I have heard people getting NVlink to work
Hasn't SLI become less popular after the 10XX series? I don't hear of many people doing dual 20XX builds?
its quite normal if driving 4k120hz
During our recent trip of Microsoft at Redmond WA, Digital Foundry had the chance to talk to the hardware design team who engineered the Xbox Series X console and saw how the console is constructed... Looking for an Xbox Series X teardown? Well, think of this as the opposite! ...
52 compute units at 1825 MHz, 8 cores at 3.8 GHz within a ~300w power envelope
that's some serious efficiency
You can buy a game pad with mouse now as well,,,so x-box actually sounds like an alternative
i got BF5 to work (bc of origin library issues) but i have 54 fps average???? i played last week and i was running at like 130 or so
i7 9700k, 1060 6gb, 24gb ram
thoughts?
unusual amount of ram
is that 3x8GB or 1x8GB with 1x16GB
if either, it may not be running in dual channel
which is a huge performance factor in BFV
How do you fix origin when it breaks
I'm literally playing apex rn and it says I'm not connected to the origin servers
I was on 97% download for bf5 eeeeee
Oh lol
alot game services crashing since server getting hit demand like they never seen
Servers r back up
is that 3x8GB or 1x8GB with 1x16GB
@latent light sorry for late reply, 3x8GB because one of my 8 GB sticks was old and caused my PC to crash, have been playing like this for a long time, no issues with games until today
do a UserBenchmark run
it benchmarks all the components in your PC
run it with nothing else open
look at the individual components
does it say anything is performing as expected or below expectations?
you can also post the link to the results here
my ram was a little below "outstanding"
@hard moon what settings and resolution ?
1080p 144hz, ran 130ish fps constantly at high with some settings on ultra
tried lowering fov from 80 to 75 but no change, tried changing resolution and graphic settings
still stuck at 50 fps average
You eint using any form of frame limiter are you ?
Nope, I checked if there was anything that could be limiting my FPS but there’s nothing
what exact graphics preset are you using ?
and are you using FFR, if not you need to turn that on
I’ll check tomorrow and let you know
do we think AMD will release zen3 late this year with all the news goin on?
Id think theyde be focused on the console supply
Which do you think is a better deal? A PC with RTX 2060 and i5-9400F for 850€ or a PC with GTX 1660 Ti and Ryzen 5 3600 for 820€?
2060 with 9400f sounds better
Hmmm
better GPU or better CPU
Its pre-built btw
Basically yes, The RTX2060 obviously is the better GPU, but it's paired with a worse CPU
personally i would get 3600 but it sounds silly to get 1660ti
same
see if you can select your own parts and ask the seller to build it for something like 50 bucks
Why is 1660Ti silly?
You cant really select parts
If I were to build any of those PCs it would be 950€+
2060 is 18-20% faster than 1660ti
9400F is around 0-3% faster than 3600 IN GAME
i would say getting the 2060 with 9400f is a better deal for you
Difference 2060 and 1660ti https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I2SwXDH91rw
Ok... And I think both CPUs would be the same for everyday tasks like web, word, excel
I mean light tasks in general
The i5 might be slightly faster, but it's usage will be higher and probably bottleneck faster in the future
fps drops will be an minor issue for 9400F
for most games at least
compare to 3600. its good for budget gaming
And what is your opinion on ultrawide monitors for gaming?
I was choosing between 29in 75Hz ultrawide and a 27in 144hz 16:9
i will get 27" 144HZ tbh
They are about the same price
Normally If building it yourself I would go with a Ryzen (better value), but if it's a pre-built you have less of a choice
if you want to get a gaming ultrawide, its gonna be expensive for a good one
I was thinking about building myself, but pre-built is better value
its alright to get a cheap one, but it will defeat the purpose of getting an ultrawide gaming monitor
i got a viewsonic 27" 1440p 144Hz IPS for 220 euro
it would say i can get a better KD in game with 144Hz, and cannot go back to 60Hz for gaming
I am thinking about the AOC 27G2U5
Its IPS too
144hz 1080p
Looks good for 175€ to me
Btw, is 144hz really that much different from 60hz?
I mean is it really noticeable
my KD went from 2.8 to around 3.6 with 144Hz on average
Ok, but can you tell the difference by looking at it? Not by stats
prebuilt
i5-9400F doesn't have hyperthreading, something that a 6-core will need in a couple years
cannot swap parts
yes but i would suggest him to ask someone to build a PC for him, instead of buying things twice
Ryzen 5 3600 has 10% faster single core and 60% faster multicore
way more futureproof
in gaming 
also don't even consider a 6-core that doesn't have SMT/HT in 2020
6-core is the next 4-core
soon it will stutter in games just like 4-cores do now
you shall recommend him to get a custom one
may able to get what he wanted
not what it's cost less for him
suggestion xbox one : please reduce time to kill on game make it like battlefield 1, i dont understand why you touch this option ???
with the Ryzen 5 3600 system you'd only need to get a better GPU in a couple years from now, with the i5-9400F you'll get pegged to 100% usage in future games and will experience stutter and overall lower performance and the only way you would be able to upgrade is to buy a new motherboard and new CPU, which is way more of a hassle than just getting a new GPU
i think the better way is to get a custom build one, with 3600 and a better gpu tho
so he doesnt need to buy the parts twice, plus, to play BFV in 144Hz
even with my 2070S with DX11, it gets 158Hz in low settings on my monitor
also don't even consider a 6-core that doesn't have SMT/HT in 2020
@latent light What is SMT/HT?
multithreading/hyperthreading
Hmmm
when a CPU has double the amount of threads
The 5 3600 also uses an ATX case, and the i5 9400F uses an mATX one
I would get ATX any day over mATX just for the compatibility
This is the build with the 1660Ti, also it has a mouse as a "gift"
The logitech G102
depends on budget
I would say SMT/HT is like a person (CPU) working with ONE Hand. SMT allows them to work with BOTH hands
I meant the mouse
Logitech G102 is actually a good value mouse
it costs $30
it's like a Deathadder but better
It isn’t bad and I have tried that before
What is better? Ryzen 5 2600 with a RTX 2060 or a Ryzen 5 3600 with a GTX 1660 Ti?
Sorry for this much questions, its hard picking a PC
Rtx 2060
first one for sure
you can push 144hz better with a Ryzen 5 3600 due to the IPC advantage
for example, if you want to play BFV at 1080p 144hz, the 2600 will only be able to get to around 120-130 fps but the 3600 will definitely be able to do 144 and up
They dont say the exact model of the 2060 🤔
But will the GTX 1660Ti allow the 3600 to do that?
yeah 1660Ti can do 144 fps at low settings iirc
Btw I get average 50 fps on low now
RTX 2060 could too but the 2600 will bottleneck it
Hmmm
if the RTX 2060 and R5 3600 were paired together, that would be a far better option
You talking with all the settings on low?
They have it, but that build costs 950€
Instead of 800
that sucks because the 3600 only costs $50 more than the 2600 lol
if you buy parts individually
They got a fancier case, but I dont really care about it
If I buy parts individually it costs even more
My current PC was built by me with some help by others, but now going pre built is better value in Lithuania
And why do they always have slower ram with intel builds?
I thought ram speed doesnt matter much
oh that's because the JEDEC specs
Intel 9th gen are officially capable of 2666
Ryzen 3000 is officially capable of 3200
Ryzen 2000 is capable of 2933
Oh ok
official specs are controversial tho
By the way, is it a good idea to buy a separate HDD for the PCs? They both have 500GB nvme ssd's , but I dont see 500GB being enough for me
Because I always hear people saying hdd is bad now that ssds are cheaper
Yeah
for example, 1TB HDD is $40 while 1TB SSD is $100
The cheapest 1TB ssd I could find was 120€
1tb for 100? what the heck
SSDs are good to use as the main operating system drive
windows boots 4-5 times faster, apps load faster, ect.
Yeah, I have a 120gb ssd in my current PC
majority of games benefit from them but I still like having HDDs for games because I prefer having more games than having faster load times
I mean all my games take up about 600GB now
long loading times are good if you like to make trips to the bathroom or grabbing a snack too

I ned help with a pc i have a intel quad coreni5 16GB 1Tb windows 10 1050 graphics card
what i5 model is it?
Is that good I'm new but its a bit slow for battlefield and that what i need to upgrade
open 'Task Manager', click on the 'Performance' tab and click on CPU
should tell you a lot about it
Ok
you did say it's a quad core so it's definitely not an 8th gen or newer
quad core CPUs struggle with BFV
yeah
is it a laptop or desktop?
Desktop
games are utilizing more cores/threads
dual cores became redundant a few years ago, now quad cores are starting to
next gen consoles sport a Ryzen 3000 series based 8-core and 16-thread CPU, which basically means 8-cores is becoming the new standard
PSA Time if in any video for bfv optimization tells you to use a program called ddu DONT all it does is hijack your pc and make you reinstall winfows
you must have downloaded a malware off an unofficial site
very common with programs like that
Yah sry to bother anyone its just it freaked me the f out to see my mouse moving on its own and disc drive opening and closing
If DX12 has been switch on in BFV, it gains FPS but lower the 1% FPS. I got 0FPS from my Build with DX12 sometimes. If aiming for smooth, gaming experience, DX12 with 1660ti can get a high Frame rate but not really good for gaming especially in BFV.
oi @latent light sorry for the ping but i'm about to try and see how my FPS go in BF5
idk if i'm allowed to send screenshots in here
@opaque saddle what do you mean "High framerate but not good for gaming"?
@gloomy gyro stuttering. like with DX12 on, my 2070S can get >160fps on BFV. but the fps drops to 40fps or even 0fps during gun fights
Same for me, Dx12 gives an better average, but the 1 and 0.1% are way lower, which makes BFV a stuttery mess. (5700XT), I just use DX11 for now
GUYS HELP
i got GTX 1050ti Core i3 8100 8 ram and BF1 stutters a lot like with everything on high i get like 50 - 70 fps and on low i get 40 - 55 sth like this
the game is broken sth ?
you dont meet the recommended specs for that game so it wont run amazingly. but you may be running into a cpu bottleneck on low settings. hence why you get more fps on high than on low
no? the recommended specs is an i7 4790, 16gb of ram and a gtx 1060
you have non of those things
Yeah, the CPU, GPU and ram meet the minimum specs, but not the recommended
am talking about BF1 btw
mhm
not BFV
so am i
how bro ?
And the the lower the settings, the more the CPU will bottleneck the GPU
i dont understand bro
wdym you dont understand?
like a lot of ppl tested the game with same specs and got +60 fps all the time on mid-high
yeah which is about what you get, that 10 or so fps can come from so many variables. They may have less background applications. they may have dual channel ram, their gpu may be clocked higher and their cpu may be turboing higher
not really
Not for performance, only loading times
ik
I have question about ram for bf v
I have 8 gb but sometimes there are painful lags does 12 gb is enough for this game?
i would never recommend 12gb of ram, mixing sticks is always a bad idea. Is your ram single channel or dual channel, IE do you have 1 stick or 2 ?
yeah, there is your issue
bfv HATES single channel ram
Forza Horizon 4, Battlefield V, Shadow of the Tomb Raider 1x8GB vs. 2x4GB RAM performance comparison.
G.Skill Trident Z RGB DDR4 8GB (1x8GB) 3000MHz CL16.
ADATA XPG Z1 DDR4 8GB (2X4GB) 3000MHz CL16.
Benchmark rig specs...
● CPU: Intel Core i5-8600K 4.1/4.5GHz, Hexa Core / Cof...
you are talking 60 fps
My fps are good
yah and single channel ram will cause stutters..
Yeah, look at the 1 and 0.1% lows
My fps are good but i havr this icon what does it mean
That 4 rectangles
I cant sent picture
packet loss I think
Are it normal rectangles or ones with '!' in them?
low fps, yes
But sometimes there are clear ones
If's yellow it's just a warning (below 60 probably), orange is severe.
Buying another 8 gb will be a good idea?
@clear hazel i3-8100 will get some stutter in 64-player game modes in BF1, and a lot more stutter in BFV
clear ones are packet loss, so data being lost between your PC and the server. Could be on your end, the server's end or somewhere in between
i guess the Duel Channel Ram would make a huge difference
I read about it and people are saying i need more ram
Especially if it's single channel it would definitely improve things
I see double 8gb is good
Yeah a single 8GB stick won't perform well, having two in dual channel will increase fps by up to 50%
no way
Yes
BFV really benefits from dual channel memory because dual channel doubles the bandwidth which greatly improves latency between CPU and RAM communication
So i must wait and play with those lags
I have some upgrades to buy but that money is now in reserve to buy groceries, depending on how long business is so dead
But when i set my settings to low the icon is still there
I have some upgrades to buy but that money is now in reserve to buy groceries, depending on how long business is so dead
hope this pandemic ends soon
Me too
I would buy a i5-9400F and update your motherboard BIOS so it can support it @clear hazel
i would buy a new pc in a year sth
@prime jasper America has the most cases atm btw
I live in poland ant there is 200 cases per day
New York has 60,000 cases alone
Belgium compared has 11 000 confirmed cases
I need to upgrade my ram because i5 8400 2,8 ghz and 1050ti 4gb are very good
1050Ti isn't that good
yeah its a low end gpu now a days
the i5 8400 is pretty decent tho..
double that price in ma country
x4 this price in my country
HAHAH
Maybe x5
where tho ?
P o l a n d
The used market isn't that good everywhere though. A new RX570 can cost more than 110eur here
damn
Lmao
Getting price gouged badly
Yes PLN or Zł
yeah it isnt worth anything compared to usd, gdp or euro
Bruh they wanted 500 zł for windows 10
HAHAHAH
And they gave me full fersion for free
Thought it was weird, that would be the price of the most expensive 2080ti here
With my income I could buy a RTX 2080 Super every week lmao
Well, 500zl would be 110€
Yes
And full rtx computer with I5!
1500zl is like $365 or 330eur
I got a $5 windows key from ebay
Costs 14000zł
same, just install it from an USB stick and get a cheap key to get rid of the watermark.
So in poland you have to be millionare to be a gamer
But they gave me full win 10 version for free
And they wanted extra 500zł
I mean cheapest windows keys I could find were about 20€
well lucky me i dont have 2 buy from local shops here
Amazon ships free 2 ma city Yaaai
10-15eur for me too, but yeah
I buy PC stuff online too, its cheaper
Well, I never had problems like that
nah
Amazon dont do that
They can do the same if you buy not online 😀
