ram usage shouldn't be that high when idle
could be windows issue, malware, kernel problem
hang on
ask him whether he was visiting some dodgy sites coz it slows down the pc a lot
so I might have a virus
maybe
Omfg
but reinstalling windows will fix that dw
use windows defender
I don’t go on any dodgey webs
i did a quick scan and it showed 0 threats derek
Every month my windows scans my pc for viruses and about 4 days ago it said no threats detected
coz quick scan is scanning C drive and starts up only
can you disable the page files plz
my discord is lagging like mad ? Is this normal
nah
How long do you have it?
ok
this pc is fucked
id say send it back to scan before anything
because they might not accept rma if you have reinstalled windows
in all my years as a nerd, i have never seen something so fucking weird
i wouldnt know what really went wrong either
tbh
i bought all the premium parts and never have any hardware issues since then
the high ram usage and the underperforming gpu are both contributing to it
How long would it take for scan to respond
wait whats his problem exactly i got lost
idek
idrk what, but maybe its using the igpu or something, idk
@wanton carbon send me a picture of the back of your computer
ok
the gpu is underperforming like crazy
and really high ram usage
he is going into page file
from the picture he just sent i can tell you its top slot and both monitors are running on the gpu
i have left the team viewer now. A.) i need to go and b.) that pc needs to be sent back
all good
what
ok my parents aren’t mad at me and I can send it back sweet
what’s an invoice number ?
i was modding the visuals of demon's souls on RPCS3 yesterday and one graphical option gave me a green screen right after enabling it
had to hard restart my pc cause it got stuck there
i kept modding and playing different games after that during the day and nothing bad happened
but today i was playing remnant with a friend and the screen suddenly went all green again for 2 seconds and then it came back to normal
id normally think it had nothing to do with the emulator but these are literally the only two times i ever had a green screen on this pc so i am 99% sure it is related
is it possible that i gave cancer to my gpu and it's already dying?
it's an rx590, i got it brand new 1 year ago
i am almost sure the filter that gave me the green screen yesterday was GP65CJ042DOF FX, if that tells anything
what’s an invoice number ?
@wanton carbon when you buy something you get a receipt/invoice where the store people oficially register your purchase so if you have it you have evidence that you got it form them so you can get help from them
idk that depends on how the whole thing was managed
i bought a scan gamer pc from you about 4-5 months ago now , and it was great , its amazing , but today i couldnt play anything , i tried playing Battlefield v and it was freezing and everything , i went on a few discords to get advice , i had a friend try and run some things to see if he could fix it and he couldnt , the ram is being used by something i dont know of , and the gpu just wont fully work i dont even know how to explain it , my friend said to me this is nothing he has seen before and he said to just contact scan and try to send it back to see if they can fix it -thats what i said
The invoice number will be in an email you got from scan
tbh unless they are very nice people, they will try to wash their hands
i am not joking
ok
tbh unless they are very nice people, they will try to wash their hands
Or unless you got the invoice number and you are inside the guarantee period of course. Best case scenario is both of those things are a yes
They took my gpu back even tho it was user error as to why it wasnt working
It will be fine
ok
dont you lose the guarantee after opening a prebuilt computer though
i have only added a cpu cooler and another hhd
maybe it's only in my country but here any prebuilt pc you buy has a sticker on the case that you need to remove or break in order to open it and that's the guarantee proof
so if i installed a cooler or literally anything id lose the guarantee
does she delete emails?
no she got a new phone
YESSS
do you have this problem with other games too? or just bfv?
sorry if they asked you this before but i just checked all ur messages today fast but couldnt read the entire conversations
@wanton carbon any luck getting it returned ?
the 1050ti wouldnt be far off the performance you are getting atm lmao
the 1050ti runs bfv way better than his 1660s is doing though
he can also check if he has single or dual channel by typing wmic memorychip get speed in command prompt
however 8gb single channel and a corsair 450w psu runs bfv at a playable level, not the slideshow he showed
The next steps are either returning it or reinstalling windows
i am 99% sure it's a windows problem, if the guarantee allows him to send back the pc for the sellers to work on it, that's the first thing i'd suggest
if that's not possible then id do a clean windows reinstall
Agreed
although it's weird that this started happening after 5 months all of the sudden
If he cant get it returned I will show him how to reinstall windows
id imagine these things happen right after windows installation
also he said discord didn't work so he had to download a beta or some shit?
it's too many weird things happening in one pc
something definitely fucked up from the moment he got it until now
did he specify if other games run better?
or is it only bfv?
many people dare to touch deep core windows stuff in order to improve the gaming performance of their pc even when they have literally no idea what they are doing and the improvement is almost imperceptible at the cost of having an infinite amount of problems that are eventually hard to diagnose
idk this dude so idk if he's that kind of person or not
but i've seen problems similar to this and i also had no idea what it was until the person said they followed some yt tutorials some days ago that fucked up their entire OS
some people do this even on good pc's that need literally none of those things at all but they do it anyway out of blind ambition
good
I hope they solve the problem
What about steam and discord tho , will I need to remove it
if you have the guarantee of the product they will solve the problem
either by fixing what is wrong or detecting what hardware is broken and replace it for another
and if they cant they will send you a new pc
ye
yeah , will they fit the cpu cooler for me if I do have to get a new one
I added a h60 water cooler in replace for the stock one
did you mount it yourself?
yeah
ughhh
if for some reason you can't or dont want to, let them know you put a custom water cooler ofc
yeah I will , I need to wait at least 2 days for a response
If they say it’s a ram problem I’m gonna have to get 16 gb
it's not a ram problem
ive played bfv on 8gb ddr3 ram
of 1666mhz
way worse than what you have
and i got 60 stable fps
on an also worse hardware overall
all of your pc is good enough hardware wise, thats why i assume it's a windows problem (or maybe the psu had some bad quality capacitors and they got fried up, thatd be just bad luck and they can change it for a new one)
Yeah
Lol
@wanton carbon you still here?
I have a possible solution to your problem
and it ain't gonna cost you a penny and no returns either
i suggest you pull your ram set it aside for a few minutes to discharge the static electricity then reseat the ram...im thinking you had a critical error in one or more of the bits
believe it or not this works 70% of the time for random foul ups.
also its worth a try if your skeptical...but be sure to turn your PC off and ground yourself temporarily.
its not a ram issue i dont thinkn
its a gpu issue
well its both really
it was high ram usage at idle and his 1660 super was performing the same as a 1060 3gb
its worth a try 3 people here on discord found that to be a solution....one error is alll it takes
it was high ram usage at idle and his 1660 super was performing the same as a 1060 3gb
if it was performing the same as a 1060 3gb the game should be perfectly playable
anybody knows why many gpus come with this default fan configuration? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/158406207978209280/742132589803864094/unknown.png
isnt it just dumb?
High ram usage can be part of the windows issues
I remember my old windows system wasn’t able to clear up the RAM cache with the OS. It gets worse if I didn’t restart my PC by the end of the day
I have bought the g502 hero
my corsair dark core rgb mouse has some micro usb problems in which warranty takes too long
the usb port on the mouse not the cable which works fine
it was like 60 bucks due to tax and plus I want it as soon as possible which will come on 14-16
Hello! I've got a question, i should be running the game in consistent 60 fps in low graphics, but ingame i have 40-30 fps? Why is it so laggy? I'm using a GTX 1660 Super, I5 6400, 8 GB ram and the game its in a SSD...
Try upgrading your ram & closing programs such as discord
Roger that!
@uncut tangle its the cpu, i used to use the i5 7400 (generation newer than urs) and a gtx 1060 (much weaker card) and it was a fat bottleneck

as seen, you dont even reach minimum spec on the cpu, you need to upgrade that to get a good experience
sad
is there any way to more or less know the specs of a cpu by only knowing its model numbers? or is that just random merchandize choices?
the only difference between 6400 and 7400 is clock speed?
ic
the lack of importation due to the virus killed everything here tech related
regular pc cases literally the shitty most normie ones are 130usd
my cousin needed a pc and i had to grab a shitty old case from my company’s mountain of obsolete pcs
Oh, then I have to upgrade my ram and cpu rn, I’ve had those for years, guess it’s time already
ram is probably fine for a little while longer
yeah its mostly just the cpu
two modules of 8gb does wonders in bfv but you can still reach 60fps with one of 8 or two of 4
(better if two of 4)
Ok cool
@uncut tangle get a ryzen 5 3600 and a gigabyte b450 aorus elite and you will be golden
Huuuh, ive never used ryzen is it really that good?
i honestly cant reccomend intel to anybody atm
everything is just too expensive
these are the most purchased cpus in 2019
Huuuh, ive never used ryzen is it really that good?
@uncut tangle i understand but ryzen has really became more reliable than intel in the past few years. I was recommended ryzen 5 3600 too but i got i5 8400 because i am used to not trust amd as much as intel but in the end i did a worse investment
also a cheap mobo for the ryzen 5 3600 can support significantly more powerful ram modules than the conventional mobos you need for intel
not to mention the upgrade path, lower power draw and generally higher core count than intel.
with a b450 board you can use amds cheapest ryzen 5 1600, and amd's most expensive ryzen 9 3950x
in the end of the day is something somewhat better for the same price or even cheaper
what i dont recommend tbh are amd gpus
Well I can afford to do an investment like that
I’ll take a look at those components, thank you!
how do i configure teamviewer to make the remote pc respond to my kb shortcuts instead of my own pc?
The Nvidia Germany facebook account is starting to tease for the new lineup i guess EDIT: Sorry there was a double post with someone else at the same time
owo

can an old case power pins fuck up a modern mobo?
i need to build two pcs inside old spare cases
@uncut tangle you say your on low graphics? Try raising graphics on specific setting to take the load off CPU and put some of the load on your graphics card.
yeah i bet you will get more fps on ultra than low
Now i have it on high and it goes from 60 to 40, if i don't have anything else open
y
because it will help understand if the fps you are getting is normal
Meme
Time
guise im building a pc at work and even though the mobo has 8 pins for cpu power from the psu, the psu only has 4 pins. Is it okay if the cpu is just a pentium g5420?
or if the mobo has 8 then it must be unconditionally 8?
it should be fine
amazing ty
ice
i might not touch anything till scan replies
do you have the expertice to remove your ram?
if you look at some of the symptoms zen, like i said this is way deeper than a ram resit can fix
im certain of that
yeah , removing ram is easy lmao
okay then try that
granty i have a guy ionline right now that could testify that that saves his PC
want me to get him to tell you that it helped him?
also i helped mikey as well
you know miceal from norway?
thats what my game looked like lmao
okay Ice turn off your machine...unplug it.....place your left hand on the power supply while depressing the on button to discharge all electrical current ...then pull your ram.....place it on a towel....then wait about 10-15 minutes and reseat it....its that easy
you do realise ram is volatile right?
meaning that when power is lost, all data is lost too
so any error that was contained on the ram would be reset after just a restart
yes i do but the static is still there
thats why i dont think pulling it out and putting it back in will change anything
but whats the problem with trying?
that will only fix a bad connetion between the ram and the motherboard, and considering he has had the system for 5 months, i dont think its that
because it might void the warrenty that he is trying to claim
i swear if i cant get it fixed im gonna be pissed
like i said, if scan doesnt accept the return then i will show you how to reinstall windows which will probably fix it. and if that doesnt fix it you can drop it round mine and i can find out what hardware is causing the issues
yeah
okay an alternative to reseating the ram would be to leave your PC off for 3 days to discharge the static electricity
okay hers my friend conner
tell these guys how reseating your ram brought your machine back
Hey bro trust me just take out all your ram in your pc leave it out for 5 mins put it back in and turn your pc on and you will be good thats how i fixed my pc's ram @sinful mantle helped me by doing that just take it out for 5 mins and put back in and then your good
also i helped mikey from norway with the same issue
but its not just a ram issue
ok whats the other probs
whatevva man
the graphics card has just gone wank
what graphics card is it
1660 super
lol i dont buy it cause its shit
well no its not
i have a 1080 amp edition and i have had it for 4 years and it works fine for me
soo , lmao not all products last
How does that have anything to do with his problem though?
ikr
not my problem that he doesnt listen to what we are trying to tell him so im not going to bother
dude
well it has helped me several time through the years it helped Vex about a year ago as well as mikey from norway
not every pc in the world will last 5 years
if you dont even want to try it then im sorry for you
mine is £3,500 and im good i have had it for 6 years
OK....
and it still works fine i dont get how people fuck up there pc's
dude just go away
then stop complaining
if u rnot willing to help other people just go
we gone
google it thats what it is there for
dude im tryin g to help you you just wont listen
im not complaining .... im already getting help from the company and a friend
rqam errors cause randon failyers
then stop messaging
not all ram is perfect
anyway were gonna play bfv on our working PCs
lmao
Dude chill
i am just stop saying your pc is fucked and need help if you are already getting help from 2 people
Can everyone just stop? I'm not going to repeat myself.
sorry @molten coral
im talking to them in here .....
lets go in our game Vex
u 2 came and just said we are going to play bfv on OUR WORKING PC'S
let him send his machine back
sure im going to play some manly games
i was giving you the best advice i could Ice
right good luck then
mom dad please stop fighting
dude just stop you keep messaging us and complaining and i just want to chill im just trying to leave it plz just listen to the mods and i will shut up
i didnt ask for ur help , ur friend dragged u over ????
ok then just stop
i was already getting help fml
well go then , u just said ur playing bfv
yeah and then you message me
Im just going to ignore you, you are just annoying me and putting me in a mood and later my gf is going to call me and expect me to be happy and chill and now i probs cant so w.e
ok
hahaha...damn

well that was intense
idiots man
he got hgis friend , and then calls a 1660 super shite and then moans at me for not caring for my computer
hey i dont want anything to do with this lol
fair enough
tbf you took all of that too seriously ice
almost as if you got stress from it
just ignore dumb ppl
tbh
I want to buy BF5 but i have some Internet Issues.Can somebody tell me how big the Bf5 download on PC is at the time
yeah , but i was getting help from someone already and then he just comes and moans at me as if i caused my computer to be dumb and dont even help
iirc it's around 70GB
ok thank you
1660Ti is legit if you don't need RTX. Totally worth the dime.
I have two of them in this machine. Haven't looked back.
I'm going to pick up a 30-series and then let these run the peripheral monitors.
It's still up in the air.
Like the 3080 is supp to be 1700 ish?
I’m going to say this is my personal opinion
I’m not ragging it like that other guy
That for the extra cost of the 2060, it’s a suitable replacement
I mean, from a production standpoint, GPU power helps in rendering so it's worth the cost to me.
ik its probs bad compared to better cards but it isnt a shite card overall
I think it’s just a tiny bit better for a bit more money.
I mean, it’s not really “shite”
It’s imo a pretty nice card
Good bang for the buck
I can't speak to the Super, just the Ti variant and they have done me pretty well.
im not on a budget , but its my first gaming pc , thats why i have a 1660 super
my pc is messed up rn , i cant even run terraria lmao
What, how?
Maybe you need to update the bios.
I mean, if 2080Ti prices drop drastically, I'll just pick up two of those when the 30-series hits, but otherwise I'll pick up a 30-series once I pay down some other gear.
i contacted scan but i need to wait fir them to reply
2, I don’t see the 2080 coming down in price in a short time frame from when the 30 series comes out.
God, this is my home now.
I don’t even play BF
lol
Well, I did, but I’m really just here for #technology
i like this tech chat
i dont have to dm this one guy for help if im stuck anymore lmao
Right now, I am more concentrating on picking up a good set of studio monitors and some isolators for the new condo studio.
Yes, they're powered, precision monitors.
Speakers, I thought you were talking about, you know.
Speakers go in monitors.
Yeah, that's why it's termed a "speaker cabinet".
I don’t know much abt audio
The speaker is the cone, frame, and driver that emits the sound. The monitor/monitor cabinet is what the speaker is housed in.
The words can be interchanged in some places.
I built a speaker (like soldering the board and everything)
Oh cool
Understanding EP is always a good skillset.
I burnt my hand on that speaker
Not like the 900° soldering iron but still hot metal which was cooling for a bit
But yea, good studio monitors are helpful.
Can we not keep going back and forth with each other?
my gpu temp is at 43 and all im doing is watching twitch
@wanton carbon
mine is lava
nothing compare to u
my gpu temp is at 43 and all im doing is watching twitch
@wanton carbon thats fine
dw

Yea
Max temp is 105
Got it to 118 for about a solid second and a half when playing valorant

Seems legit.
Very legit
those are the type of rechargeable batteries you find in bluetooth headsets etc, in a bag, I was pretty disgusted when I found out
mhm
im still playing bf3 with lag lol
Specs? @prime jasper
i3-5005U 2.00 ghz and 4 gb ram, Intel HD 5000
But bf3 requirements are below my cpu
it says my pc has reccomended spec
then why tf it lags?
i deleted
nvm
I'm pretty sure neither that gpu or cpu are anywhere near reccomended spec
@supple baneThat's putting it kindly.
Good evening.
Hii
How can i run BFV on a GTX 550ti ?
I downloaded 391.50ish driver
550?
Im on intel i5 7th gen
16gb 2666mhz ram
Yeah 550ti
Hm
You won't be able to play with that as you are far below the mininum spec for a GPU.
Yeah, I'm not going to sugarcoat it..
Im really confused
!!spec
On youtube a 550ti runs it on 30 to 45fps
Nope
Forgot it
!!specs

bro that was in campaign
you would probably get 20 fps in multiplayer
720p low 20fps does not count as "run" in my books lol
Mhm
7th gen i5 is gonna stutter a lot in BFV
And GTX 550Ti will be running at 720p lowest settings like 20 fps
You can't play any Battlefield game on Intel integrated graphics
It would run way better on a used $20 Xbox 360
Im planning on getting a pc for the first time (built or pre built) but i don't know which monitor and Pc i should get. my monitor budget is 250 canadian $ and 1100 canadian $ for the PC
wait what
whats that got to do with your computer?
ngl im pretty sure you either have a corrupt windows install or a virus
I don't know much about pc's but do have the storage because games are getting big now a days
i have anough storage lmao , its just my computer is bad rn and it has just flopped
my computer can just about play terraria rn
Yeah
@wanton carbon you wont find it, if scan doesnt get back to you by tommorow i will show you how to reinstall windows
Thanks Nacho, i appreciate the help
i hope they do reply
Maybe you gotta update the bios
Or possibly use an optimization tool.
I just use razer cortex, it helps a little bit.
I don't have many files though.
loads of people have said about bios settings
I mean, the bios is kinda important
Maybe try an optimization tool FIRST before doing anything to the bios.
I'd say go the extra mile and get a good quality one
i might just wait for scan to reply , see what they say and then go from there
whats the most convenient cpu for 2070s and 144hz gaming?
is ryzen 5 3600 enough or should one go beyond?
ryzen 3600 will be enough im pretty sure
for cpu demanding titles the 3700x will be better, not so much of a gain for older titles
the most expensive CPU i will go for is 3700x since it wont make much of differences with anything more than 8 cores
and whats the best mobo for 3700x for a pc that wont do OC nor sli/crossfire?
just the minimum required i guess
i dont think there is "the best mobo" tbh
coz you can say the best out of the best quality Mobo or a bargain with "$X" price tag
best for the price i mean
in this case the cheapest i guess
one that is compatible with ryzen 7 3700x and 3200mhz ram and pretty much nothing else
no OC support nor sli support, those are unneeded
only a 2070super
I'd reccomend my mobo, this one https://www.ple.com.au/Products/636450/ASUS-TUF-Gaming-X570-PLUS-WiFi-AM4-ATX-Desktop-Motherboard
Obviously just find it at your store
any PSU recommendations?
Try claiming warranty on the old one bro
It's worth a shot, it's not like a lighting strike is your fault
ye I guess I can try
@molten coral I've had great success with Corsair's RM line tbh. https://www.corsair.com/us/en/Categories/Products/Power-Supply-Units/c/Cor_Products_PowerSupply_Units
CORSAIR power supplies are built with the utmost care and highest quality components and are designed to provide reliable, efficient and quiet power for even the most demanding systems.
I have an 850W modular and it's been solid.
Indeed
Ordered a new one
any PSU recommendations?
@molten coral for what pc
Eh already ordered a new one
kk
Both are pretty solid
scan have replied YAY
What did they say?
ir wont let me repost the pic in here , can i dm it you so you can send iyt
sure
I can kinda read through the blue
Lol
so does anyone know what i have to do
??
so does anyone know what i have to do
@wanton carbon
-
Windows key + R > Type control panel > Enter > Category view (upper right corner) > Uninstall a Program (lower left corner) > Uninstall Everything NVIDIA related.
-
Download GTX 1660 drivers from here and install it (if that's the gpu you have, i cant remember exactly) https://www.nvidia.com/Download/driverResults.aspx/162105/en-us
-
Try your games again and if the problem persists, respond to their email saying that you just did it but the problem persists.
The previous questions they asked you about it starting happening all of the sudden and if there was a windows update and stuff only you can answer.
ok
ty ando
hang on , do i uninstall every single thing that says nvidia
as my left moniter has now gone off
install the drivers now
tbh i also doubt it will fix it
id suggest not to raise your hopes a lot if you dont want to get disappointed
the important thing here is to do what they tell you to do, whatever it takes to make them understand the gravity
i personally would rather of had them take it and try and do it so that i dont make it worse
you wont make it worse with this
you are doing what is necessary for them to take it
right they are done
once they cant help you anymore from emailing they will ask you to bring it there
if things go well
that is
ok another problem now
FUCK SAKE
it says i need to - please update your microsoft basic render driver
what says that?
alright lets see
if i am not mistaken, it is asking you to update your integrated graphics, and that's not what you want to use. It's ignoring your gpu. Did you restart your PC after the driver installation?
no
do that
ok
my other moniter wont re connect
my screen is pushed in and my resolution is bad fml
why cant they just take it in and fix it for god sake man
calm down that's normal
right click on your desktop > display settings
and choose the right resolution
if the right resolution isn't there, then you installed your driver wrong
omg
nothing of this has a point of no return, it's all good, you shouldnt worry this much
see this is what i mean , im shit with tech
want me to do it thru teamviewer?
yeah
give me ur id and pw on pm
done
@wanton carbon reinstalling the drivers wont fix it.
if you havent already worked that out
ik
i reinstalled the drivers already when i was remoted into your pc
thats a symptom of not having a driver installed at all
oh.
storm is coming mad by me lmao
nah my computer is still the same lmao this is so annoying
did you install the driver?
yeah
when you say it's still the same you mean the screen resolution and the second monitor still dont work? or that the games still work badly?
its all working , its just my games dont work as they should
so nothing has been fixed
i see, by the way did you check your CPU temperatures?
somebody here has been having very badly gaming performance and it ended up being that
i dont think its my cpu
at this point i wouldn't rely on guesses
you can download "core temp" to check the temperature if you want to discard that
does it overlay in games
yes
if you for instance were to remove the cooler at all, even windows will be almost unusable
i use a h60 water cooler from corsair
yeah
i would check the temperatures
i5 9400F
it seems that if your room isn't too warm, your cpu temperatures would normally be between 30c and 40c when doing nothing
the temps at 30-40 when im idle
hmm what i would do now is open the game in window mode so i can check how high the temperatures raise while gaming
ok
as far as i am concerned, performance issues should be expected if the temperatures raise beyond 85c
but if your idle temperatures are proper, i think odds are your gaming temperatures will be proper as well
also
if you don't mind, i think it could help to check your task manager performance while playing the game
my cpu temps are just below 60 degrees
ok you can uninstall core temp, that's clearly not the issue
while in a multiplayer game
yeah
my cpu cooler is like 3 months old so i doubt it would be underperforming
if you don't mind, i think it could help to check your task manager performance while playing the game
i mean this https://i.imgur.com/RwZI0LF.png
yeah i used that yesterday and the utilization was around 50-60 on my gpu
my cpu did
well not fully 100 all the time
but like once or twice my cpu spiked up
but what was the average?
i have a similar cpu to yours so i can check how it should kinda be
ok
it's been long since i played bfv last so there might be an update or smthn
ts 80 + it does hit 100 alot , but my gpu is like 40-
ts 80 +?
its *
oh
is that bad
will be able to tell in a minute
ok
none of your disks reached 100% either right?
with all this "21" Nvidia has been talking about, RTX 3000 may actually be named 2100 series
not fancy enough
Does ir really matter what it's called? Nah
Everything was going great when ordering components until i realized the Corsair PC case i wanted isn't in stock and there is one left for 550$ on Amazon. I have to no clue when it will be back in stock so if you have the time, can you please recommend cool me some Full Tower Cases that are under 200$ canadian. (plz only reliable sites)
Room isn't an issue, but its my first Pc im going to build and i want to work with space. Thats why i want the full tower cases. My room tends to get really hot in the summer so i want a pc that lets air in and out without overheating
Well the cube cases are easy as to build in
Alternatively the Lian Li 011 is great if it's available and cheapish
Alright ill consider it
👍
Maybe an NZXT one?
They're alright
@prime jasper thanks for recommendation
@magic gust what did you get in the end?
Well, i was planning to get the one I was recommended here but I said to myself forget the budget I worked hard for the money so I ended picking components for a total of 2.3k can.
So yeah, I decided to build a good pc
i need some help
im helping someone install windows and ive run into an issue
it says something along the lines of cant install windows because the disk is of GPT partition or something like that
does anyone know how to fix this?
change the bios to csm if it is set to uefi (boot options)
where do I get msi afterburner , I need it ASAP
my cpu is boiling and I don’t have discord to copy the link
gpu I meant
its the first result on google if you search download msi afterburner. The site is big and shows 3 different types of it but just scroll down and download te regular one
what was it?
i see
if the game works properly now and the disk usage isnt 100% like before, then that was most likely it. I saw you had a lot of programs running in the background when i checked your pc yesterday so maybe some of them were consuming the disk a lot. Make sure next time to properly select what programs you want to keep running in the background
let us know how it goes
and just in case make sure to install the game in a different disk i would suggest
not the one that was reaching 100% before
how many gb's is bf5
its like 80iirc
Hey everyone, I need help. My Pc has these but I have fps issues. Really bad ones. I can only play in low setting and I cant even play on big maps. I can only play smaller game modes or the fps goes down to 30 and even 20. Here is my pc:
Gtx 1080ti
I7-7700
16gb ram (1 slot)
Asus prime b250m-k motherboard
the 1 ram slot is most likely the problem
@oak cave you need dual channel RAM
Get another stick, same model as the one you have
Yeah dual channel RAM will increase fps by up to 50% and help the stuttering
Thank you
Also playing on low settings with a GPU like the 1080Ti just turns your CPU into a bottleneck
That GPU should be played with high/ultra settings
it probably gets worse cause it also requires more ram from that single stick
when you up the graphics
And I have only 2 slots for ram
yea true
so add another RAM so they work efficiently instead of overloading a single one
Having two sticks in dual channel doubles the memory bandwidth which in turn decreases CPU latency
but that should fix the issue 👏
dunno why people have said to you that the CPU is the problem
Thanks everyone. And a little question: how can I learn that my power supply is enough or not
how much Watts does your current one have
600
i7-7700 could get hiccups considering 12 CPU threads is the sweet spot for BF5
thaat should be more than enough
I spent an year searcing for a solution. Everyone said other stuff. Thanks everyonr
ur welcome

here's also a good example of running one ram stick :P
Battlefield V Beta, 1x8GB vs. 2x4GB RAM performance comparison.
G.Skill Trident Z RGB DDR4 8GB (1x8GB) 3000MHz CL16.
ADATA XPG Z1 DDR4 8GB (2X4GB) 3000MHz CL16.
Graphics preset: Medium 00:00 | Resolution: 1920x1080.
Benchmark rig specs...
● CPU: Intel Core i5-8600K 4.5GHz, He...
i wanted to google about the subject

he's conveniently using a gtx 1080ti
A locked i7-7700 will bottleneck the 1080Ti in some games
Especially CPU demanding titles
I bought my pc 4 years ago. I was an idiot back then. And the place I bought scammed me it looks like
damn
It probably has very basic OEM ram that's green and has shit CAS latency
Might as well buy two new sticks of 2x8GB 3000 MHz or better
i mean yeah if the 1x16gb sucks rather go with 2x8gb
Corsair Vengence RAM is the best choice for value/performance
My ram is: Gskill 16 DDR4 2133mhz
2133 oof
A new 16 or just sell this and buy a 2x8?
Any suggestion? Corsair vengence grimace said
im using Kingston 16GB (2 x 8GB) HyperX Fury, DDR4 3200MHz myself
im using vengeance as well
You can't go really wrong with most brands
but yee Vengeance is really good too
I'm using Corsair vengeance because I like the RGB style
if not better
And uhm the last question. This pc will mostly will still be good in like 3-4 years right?
I use the Gskill trident z I like it
if your monitor is 60hz it'll pump out that 60fps from most games in the future too
if your monitor is 144hz
then it might fall under 144 in close to 3years
I have G.Skill RipJawz V
Really? That is the fuxkin problem ı was dealing with?
No, it's really not that. Dual channel increases the performance but wont magically make it go from 20fps to 150fps, no offense to everybody that suggested that, but BFV is not unplayable in single channel. You can get over 60 that way.
and 2133mhz is also enough to surpass 60fps on bfv
you dont need top notch hardware nor dual channel to run BFV higher than 30fps
@oak cave
Well thanks. Im just going to get 2 slot rams
single channel is not the rooth of your problem
might be a temperature issue or a drive or PSU malfunctioning
or the ram itself malfunctioning too, but not a single/dual channel isue at all
So uhm. What do u suggest me to do
there are many things to check, hard to tell from a chat. I could but I don't have much time right now because I am at work
i came just to say that theres no hecking way the reason you can't go beyond 30fps with an i7 7700 and 1080ti is single channel
Just get another ram stick, BFV is notorious for running like shit with 1 stick.
It's just a fact and you will see better performance in most of your games.
single channel on a 1080ti can give you problems in reaching over 100fps, not over 30
your problem is something else and wont be fixed with dual channel

he doesnt need to invest any money to solve this specific issue
throwing money at it wont solve all problems
Ok 
ofc dual channel is better but it's not what he came here for
BFV runs insanely better with dual channel RAM
My friend solved his stuttering and crashing problems by going from single to dual
20-30fps performance =/= crashing and stuttering problems
battlefield V does not run at 20-30fps on 16gb 2133mhz of single channel
Does 2 8gb sticks with 3200mhz run battlefield 5 decently?
Yes that's actually the recommended config
Great thanks
@fallen harbor I'm pretty sure he's got 2133 with CL19 timings
Which is horrible
He got that PC when Kaby Lake launched, OEM ram was absolutely trash then
Still kinda is
When you have a GTX 1080Ti and i7-7700, slow ram is a big bottleneck
not denying that
his car wont turn on, upgrading its shitty wheels wont make it turn on
does somebody have problems with origin / bfv?
my friends list at origin is no longer displayed -> offline. but i'm online. I am also permanently kicked off the servers.
and I realised my fps goes down under pressure. as I said, in smaller game modes its not a problem 60fps. but with bigger game modes its a nightmare
@tired adder restart origin from task manager? maybe will work
I have no packet loss or latency problems-> 9ms with no loss
I have already reinstalled
I can only hit 85 fps consitantly on my g14
Just capped it at 60
Laptops am I right
Thermals and framerates
@prime jasper performance of the 2060 Max-Q is like 30-40% slower than the desktop 2060
I know
basically making around like 1660/1660Ti performance
85 fps seems pretty normal
I used to hit 160-190
But always in that RANGE
never consistant
I'm getting a reg office monitor so gotta cap
2060 Max-Q actually seems to be in the 1650 Super to 1660 performance range
:/
they didn't put a better GPU in the G14 because it's thin for a gaming laptop and needs an efficient GPU
M50X audio technica.
Great headset overall
HyperX cloud and just take out the mic
@wanton carbon im biased towards open back headphones and headphones that would give me a competitive edge, so i like audio technica ad500/700x headphones
I love the Steelseries Arctis Series (5 or 7)
I have an original Nintendo, and a 2 inch monitor. Don’t at me, I’m a pro at the original Mario bros
I updated my MacBook to the Big Sur beta, and safari is using 600MB of memory per tab
It was using almost 7GB with only a few tabs before I closed it before too
I > I love the Steelseries Arctis Series (5 or 7)
@summer comet i have the Arctis 7 and they are amazing, i love them
Yeah I have the Arctis 7 as well. I’m not a huge audio nerd so they’re perfect for the games I play and listening to music. I’m sure audio technicas would be better but they’re also way more expensive usually
Steel series arctis are actually respected in the audiophile community. Audio technica 700x were around 100-120
Hello tech fellas
I really need help
Since some of the battlefields are on sale i thought id buy bf4
So i did that,
Now i have it installed, got my steam and origin together but steam wont let me launch me game AT ALL
speaking of audio anyone know any good cheap mic arms
oh
Hi everyone! I have a Ryzen 5 3600, RTX 2060 Super and 2x8gb HyperX Fury DDR4 3000mhz. On BF1 I'm reaching 80 fps with settings on ultra, but I think I should be getting more than that. Any ideas? (I'm kind of new to pc gaming, so I dont know too much about settings
)
is dx12 on?
are you playing in fullscreen or borderless fullscreen?
what resolution are you using?
there's like a mod that makes bf1 soldiers accurate right?
why not make the same thing for bfv?
it sure as hell needs it
@balmy pond what resolution are you playing in? it sounds about right to me tbh
there's like a mod that makes bf1 soldiers accurate right?
what
@fallen harbor @supple bane 1920x1080 - 143hz. HDR10. DX12 off. Tried it on fullscreen and window mode with borders
wait ur playing with HDR on?
fullscreen is always best for higher fps
HDR is on auto
idk what hdr is tho
turn HDR off
Still 80 fps
kinda silly question but is your pc detecting both of your ram modules?
it wouldnt post if that was the case
It is detecting both
what is your cpu temp while playing?
I dont know if this works as a clue, but on DMC 5, I'm reaching over 120 fps
70° average
i only know that bfv runs from 80 to 110fps on 1080p with your cpu and gpu with rtx off on ultra settings
you said you get 80. If you get between 80 and 100 it should be fine i pressume
It is fine actually. It's just that I saw someone reaching over 120fps avg with same CPU and GPU, so I was wondering 
hmmm
he probably has things turned off



That's putting it kindly.
