Still really bad actually. May be fainted in any seconds coz pain killer wouldn’t work on me.

solar kestrel
#

D:

opaque saddle
#

So this is why i jumped on to chat to concentrate on other things

solar kestrel
#

that sucks mate Sadge

supple bane
#

Imagine having a dishwasher leo

opaque saddle
#

Don’t worry. Post surgery and getting all the allergies

#

Simply pain killer causes more pain for me

#

@supple bane

supple bane
#

I see

#

Allergies as like pollen?

#

In winter?

#

Oh your an aussie

opaque saddle
#

Nah. I’m allergic to palexia

supple bane
#

Oh right

opaque saddle
#

And palexia is a strong pain killer and I can’t take it

storm osprey
#

im allergic to bananas, but only a little

supple bane
#

I'm not allergic to anything luckily

opaque saddle
#

And i ended up getting all the itchiness and red marks so i decided to stay here talking

#

so i wont be focusing on the pain

supple bane
#

Well I might have developed a pollen allergy these past few years, started 3 years ago I was getting really itchy eyes in summer

opaque saddle
#

Hopefully tech will solve those things in the future

#

Have you used air purifier tho

supple bane
#

I'm fine when inside, its when I go outside

opaque saddle
#

I guess face mask would help

supple bane
#

Heh, I'm a brit. I die in anything over 25c a face mask in the summer isnt an option lol

opaque saddle
#

People have been using n95 during the bushfire

#

That was like 40+C. With thick smoke in the city

#

the smoke lasted for like a couple of weeks

#

Usually people would use those air purifier (not the cheapest one) at home, or to avoid staying outside

supple bane
#

My computer room is air conditioned so I basically just camp out in there all summer leo

opaque saddle
#

Still my sister got hay fever, just like me. Using it at home solved the issues for most of the time

digital hill
#

I remember there was a huge fire that affected the air quality of our high school so they would open up the school for anyone to go inside to eat

supple bane
#

Its the only room in the house with AC

opaque saddle
#

Hmm 247 aircon

quick locust
#

I never had air con but dont really need it

digital hill
#

What was the climate thing called that changes your room temp

opaque saddle
#

When i was living with my parents, they don’t like switching on the aircon. Even it was at mid 40s Celsius or high 40s. They said nah, not warm enough

digital hill
#

ah climate control units

storm osprey
supple bane
#

My room reaches unbelievable temperatures in the summer, its oriented so that its exposed to sun from morning to night, its small and carpeted so well insulated, it 2 computers in there and the boiler backs onto it so its unbearable

opaque saddle
#

I got myself a little towel (not sure what’s sort of tech involved) and it mean to cool the towel with water

digital hill
#

or ac's

quick locust
#

I just open window

#

boom its cold

supple bane
#

Where do you live?

digital hill
#

My room doens't have no carpet

opaque saddle
#

Do you guys have central heating tho

supple bane
#

I do

digital hill
#

I have a space heater

supple bane
#

Radiators in every room

digital hill
#

Very good for warming up room

opaque saddle
#

I watched the video, the small one and the large one works the same

quick locust
#

i have gas heater

molten coral
#

After years of unbearable heat in my room I bought an AC last year.

#

Best decision I made last year

opaque saddle
#

Literally works the same, with same functionality (expect for the fans) . It works

supple bane
#

Yeah they are great nacho,

digital hill
#

Nice well shit I need an ac for next spring/summer

opaque saddle
#

Nacho, remember to clean up the filter tho

supple bane
#

I have one of those portable ones on wheels

molten coral
#

same

digital hill
#

Because it will get really hot in the summer

molten coral
#

They use a lot of electricity though

#

that is the only downside

supple bane
#

Yeah ik

opaque saddle
#

I remember i used to live in my parents’ house and they usually have aircon, not working during the time where we needed aircon the ost

#

Most

quick locust
#

we emptied house heating loop last spring

molten coral
#

my mother wasn't happy when the energy bill came in that month OMEGALUL

quick locust
#

water was all black

opaque saddle
#

you need solar panels on the roof

supple bane
#

I try to use it just on fan mode as much as possible but some times it's not viable to NOT use it lol

solar kestrel
molten coral
opaque saddle
#

Right

#

Portable aircon?

digital hill
#

I don't have to worry about power bill since my cousin takes care of that and he's kinda the manager of the building

solar kestrel
#

Oh also derek it still didnt work

digital hill
#

room connected upstairs meaning I use his power

quick locust
#

one of the radiators in my room stopped working

opaque saddle
#

@solar kestrel drag the file into the program

solar kestrel
#

wdym program

opaque saddle
#

I got a mini pc and uses like 5w at all time

solar kestrel
opaque saddle
#

And they didn’t notice any differences from their power bills

#

I used that as a mini server

quick locust
#

my laptop probably use 10W or less

digital hill
#

Man you could have a mini mouse and keyboard today and a mini monitor

quick locust
#

my desktop up to 350 ish

opaque saddle
#

Wait up,on idle or

#

Yeah

#

I usually switch off the power switch if I don’t use it

digital hill
#

I dunno how much my desktop uses power

quick locust
#

when im not doing much on laptop the cpu goes sub 1 watt

opaque saddle
#

Since you are drawing little current (power) to maintain the state where it is ready to switch on a t any time

#

You can get yourself a power monitor switch

solar kestrel
opaque saddle
#

Got one for like $15

opaque saddle
#

Left click (and hold) the file into the program

quick locust
#

I can mostly only find Type F or G power monitors

opaque saddle
#

Does it work this way>

quick locust
#

not K

digital hill
#

I'll guess around 400w

opaque saddle
#

I use like 6 bucks a month in my electricity bill

#

That was my room tho

solar kestrel
quick locust
#

we pay 0.42 usd a kwh

digital hill
#

Man I like living in my own room no noises of family screaming at each other and privacy and enjoying the beauty of darkness

molten coral
#

I easily use 30 euro worth of electricity a month,.

opaque saddle
molten coral
#

and that is just my room alone

solar kestrel
#

never used this type of file before

opaque saddle
#

Wait up you live with your parents do you nacho?

#

I don’t know how to open it mate. Coz there are many types of files and I haven’t seen this one

#

And a portable aircon?

molten coral
#

I live at my mother's house, I'm in college, I can't afford to live on my own.

solar kestrel
supple bane
#

Well

#

"In" is a stretch heh

molten coral
#

and I'm not prepared to work 30-40h a week next to college.

#

I got better things to focus on

digital hill
#

I'm in college I kinda live in my own room that I rent for 600 dollars

opaque saddle
#

I was working full time while doing full time studies back then

#

Painful and i could get like 2-3 hours of sleep per day

#

Lasted for a few months

digital hill
#

It was a closet/laundry room for our unit but we decided we don't need it and converted it into a room

molten coral
#

I mean I've 32h of ''class'' every week + I've to work on my projects etc that is easily another 20h.

supple bane
#

In a usual world I would be able to get my first job like next month. But that won't be happening leo

opaque saddle
#

Try it next year

digital hill
#

I'm gonna wait until I get vaccinated to find a job

molten coral
#

There won't be a next year

opaque saddle
#

Good luck tho, cant really say anything about it

quick locust
#

i got both doses in january

opaque saddle
#

Yeah usually we will be vaccinated by the time aye

digital hill
#

There always gonna be a next year even if human doesn't exist nature will find a way to come back

opaque saddle
#

I guess i may get mine before June this year

molten coral
#

The world ends in 2021, they did read the maya calander wrong and it's 2021 and not 2012.

opaque saddle
#

not too sure about it tho

molten coral
#

I don't think I'll get vaccinated any time soon

#

maybe next year with how things are going right now.

supple bane
#

My mom has already been vacinated

#

First jab at least

#

My grandad too

digital hill
#

I mean some good things happened this year

solar kestrel
#

my grandparents are getting vaccinated at the beggining of march

digital hill
#

Rich people got fucked for a little by wsb

quick locust
#

I've got both doses but neither of my parents have

proud trellis
#

fuck taking the vaccine

molten coral
#

I wonder if they are gonna accept Sputnik V into the EU vaccination process

quick locust
#

probably

digital hill
#

Maybe not

supple bane
quick locust
#

germany and france backs it

proud trellis
#

yes

molten coral
#

why

proud trellis
#

i dont know whats in it

#

anything could happen to me

digital hill
#

The problem is I heard they didn't really test it as well as other vaccine manufacturers

molten coral
#

Do you know what is in your food?

quick locust
#

i already got fully vaccinated @proud trellis

#

no issues

proud trellis
digital hill
#

Gamer RACC your like my mom but vaccines have to go through a ton of shit to get approved

#

Don't worry the only thing that'll happen to you in rare cases you'll feel a little sick for a couple of days

supple bane
#

It will be much better than getting covid.

solar kestrel
#

I just hate shots period

digital hill
#

True

solar kestrel
#

but ill still get it eventually

supple bane
#

I mean who likes shots? But you gotta have them

digital hill
#

Covid is pretty bad overall your lungs will be terrible

solar kestrel
#

its not like i could get it rn even if i wnted to

quick locust
#

they list known side effects on a flier before you get it

proud trellis
#

i have my vaccines they do at school etc but the covid vaccine i dont rlly trust

digital hill
#

Just trust the covid vaccine

supple bane
#

I'm gonna guess you don't trust it because you saw something an Instagram scientist post iTs NoT sAfE?

proud trellis
#

meh

#

i see the posts but dont take any notice

solar kestrel
#

although i will asy ive had some friends get covid and they say it isnt to bad

supple bane
#

For young people it isn't

#

Just a cough, but the long term side effects aren't known, that's the thing I don't like

quick locust
#

for me it would be

solar kestrel
#

im still planng on getting the vaccine but im not worried about me if i were to get covid, mainly just my mom since she works at a school

supple bane
#

Its linked with permanent tissue damage, and it could increase your risk of serious respiratory issues later in life

proud trellis
#

i wish countries just went straight into lockdown when the virus got out of china

solar kestrel
#

even then so many people over here in America just dont listen

#

even the people saying stay saway from people get together

proud trellis
#

doesnt the USA have like 4 million cases ?

solar kestrel
#

probably

#

idk

proud trellis
solar kestrel
#

yah i just read that

proud trellis
#

HOLY FLYING FUCK

solar kestrel
#

yah

proud trellis
#

30 million

solar kestrel
#

no one here listens

#

we are over 1/4th of the worlds cases

#

and 1/5th of total deaths

#

damn

proud trellis
#

cant say it because its kinda political but its the past presidents fault rlly for not enforcing strict rules

solar kestrel
#

yah

#

even then when we went under lockdown influencers were still out and about wich didnt help

proud trellis
#

yeah

#

im glad i dont live in a country as big as USA because ig it spreads like a wildfire

solar kestrel
#

thats fo sho

supple bane
#

I mean india has 3x the population and is considerably poorer and has many fewer cases

solar kestrel
#

But we do have cookout in north carolina wich is hot

storm osprey
#

on a per 100k/1m basis america really isnt a dramatic outlier

#

we have the 3rd largest population and you can guarantee the 2 larger populations by country in front of us are not reporting accurate numbers

#

(china and india)

quick locust
#

updated to kernel 5.10.13 today

storm osprey
#

so its pretty obvious usa would have "the most totals"

supple bane
#

So its pretty high

storm osprey
#

how is that relative to the ratio?

quick locust
#

my country is pretty low

solar kestrel
#

what country

quick locust
#

dk

storm osprey
#

REALLY?

supple bane
#

Why wouldn't they?

#

Since when are India known for corruption lol

#

I'm not barrating the us, its a shit time. But I'm just saying us was the worst hit by far

digital hill
#

Its heading political lets kinda stop talking about this

storm osprey
#

but on a per 100k/1m basis we arent

quick locust
#

Those claw ethernet ports on laptops suck

#

Just put full size

#

they are third worst after usb 3 internal and usb micro

#

between modern ports anyway

digital hill
#

I agree

#

If cheaply made they are bad

#

but done correctly they are ok

opaque saddle
#

I really like USB C port

quick locust
#

C is ok

#

not very durable but fast and good with pd too

opaque saddle
#

I used to hated it coz not being too nice to the USB A owners

proud trellis
#

do USB C ports come on the mobo or GPU ?

digital hill
#

Both

proud trellis
#

oh both

opaque saddle
#

Yeah. But theport on GPU is only for VR

digital hill
#

Damn my gpu doesn't have a vr port

#

only hdmi

opaque saddle
#

The VR port would be USB C

quick locust
#

you can use it for normal use too

#

its just usb

opaque saddle
#

It doesn’t work on my 2070S

quick locust
#

does on my 2080 ti

opaque saddle
#

I tried to plug that in, but nothing works

quick locust
#

i can connect my phone to my gpu which is kinda weird

solar kestrel
#

clash of clans at 240 fps keanu

opaque saddle
#

I wouldn’t do it since its a VR port lol

digital hill
#

I am getting an oculus rift s or quest 2 for 300 dollars no tax because my cousin is scalping them he's a scalper but it still good price

quick locust
#

it doest matter it follows the usb c specification

opaque saddle
#

Coz I don’t wanna damage my card

#

Still, not sure why it doesn’t work tho

digital hill
#

I just use my usb-c port on my mobo and use it for my xiwxi wireless charger for my iphone 12

opaque saddle
#

You shall look at whether you need VR or not

#

Coz VR isn’t really for everyone

digital hill
#

I'm gaining weight

quick locust
#

my phone doesnt have wireless charging but i prefer wired anyway

solar kestrel
quick locust
#

i have 30W charger

opaque saddle
#

I have a power bank with Qi wireless charging

molten coral
#

@proud trellis 30m seems like a lot but with a of population 330m I don't think it's that bad.

digital hill
#

the wireless charger was cheaper then apple's

opaque saddle
#

pay a bit extra for a certified one

#

Always

quick locust
#

I prefer wired ones usually

opaque saddle
#

Coz i got a cheap wireless charger and it melt

quick locust
#

Can move them without interrupting charge

#

and with 30W charger it doesnt take long anyway

digital hill
#

Ah

quick locust
#

my secondary phone only does 10W but I can just swap battery

solar kestrel
#

Low key wireless charging is inconvienent in every way

opaque saddle
#

Oh i got 8% battery on my phone

digital hill
#

for me its convient

quick locust
#

is preference

digital hill
#

I don't have to plug it everytime

quick locust
#

just like i prefer wired over ear headphones but some like wireless

molten coral
#

I wish I could swap my battery sometimes but that is a thing from the past

quick locust
#

my secondary phone can swap battery

#

and is 2019 phone

digital hill
#

I have sony wh1000xm4 and I like how it includes an aux jack and it doesn't require power to use as wired

quick locust
#

reason i got it was that I was in army and didnt want to bring my main phone

digital hill
#

Apple is very asshole about swapping battery as they expect you to throw it out and buy a new one

solar kestrel
#

Hey nacho

quick locust
#

most are like that now

digital hill
#

or go to them to replace it

solar kestrel
quick locust
#

surprisingly my secondary phone is samsung

#

they still have a few with replaceable

#

just not their mainline

#

Mainstream consumer is use then throw away

molten coral
#

good, hbu?

#

I got an Iphone 12 on release after using samsung phones for almost a decade.

#

no regrets so far, like everything is just smoother and no bloatware feelsgoodman

quick locust
#

I went Nokia -> HTC -> Apple -> Asus

#

asus has some bloatware but not too bad

solar kestrel
molten coral
#

One of the things that made me switch was after samsung put Facebook on their phones with no option to remove it.

solar kestrel
#

why would they do that

digital hill
#

I like apple for another reason next update is gonna truly fuck up facebook since it now allows you to opt out of a feature that allows them to see information on your phone

quick locust
#

asus put norton on this

solar kestrel
#

nortan is full of ads

quick locust
#

thanks asus

solar kestrel
#

my grandpa had so many ads cause of norton

quick locust
quick locust
#

Apple is decent with that

digital hill
#

It lets you opt out of them tracking your data or activity

molten coral
#

I really like iOS, like it's just so simple to use.

quick locust
#

now do 120 hz iphone apple

molten coral
#

and as I use my phone only for socials and normal phone stuff like calling and messaging I don't need a super beefy phone.

digital hill
#

The problem is apple is very good on battery life

molten coral
#

my iphone 12 last like 2 days

digital hill
#

they need to see if they can 120hz on iphone and make sure it still got good battery life

molten coral
#

and that is with some extensive use

digital hill
#

@molten coral My iphone 12 I barely use last 3-4 days

quick locust
#

both my sisters have huawei for years

molten coral
#

I kinda wished I went with the pro max version though

#

A lot of my friends have huawei, it's a pretty good brand ngl.

quick locust
#

one of them has huawei phone, wrist , matebook pro

molten coral
#

They have some really good budget phones too

solar kestrel
#

now that you mention it i dont have to charge my phone that often

molten coral
#

like the P30 lite

solar kestrel
#

i havnt charged it since yesterday and its at half hp

#

fuck

#

charge

quick locust
#

my mom has a 87 usd motorola

#

lasts days

#

Meanwhile my laptop is 1.5 hour

solar kestrel
#

laughs in pc tower

quick locust
#

I have that too

solar kestrel
#

but crys in no mobility

opaque saddle
#

My phone would last for 5 hours

quick locust
#

I just use laptop for uni

opaque saddle
#

I’m using iPhone XS with 83% battery Health

quick locust
#

wish I could see battery health on my phone

molten coral
#

Laptops are kinda shit with battery life

#

even the expensive ones

quick locust
#

mine barely uses power but has short battery life

molten coral
#

Like I've a Dell XPS 15 and after 3h I need to charge it again

opaque saddle
#

Ultra book with excellent battery life would be amazing

quick locust
#

new macbook pro has a lot

opaque saddle
#

But they put a small battery to compensate small space

#

Coz the intel cpu uses tons of power

quick locust
#

my current laptop is 21 Wh at 8V

molten coral
#

There is space for a bigger battery but I don't really want to buy a 150 euro battery for 1 more hour of energy.

opaque saddle
#

I will switch to the arm mac if I really needed one

#

But at this stage, nah it isn’t necessarily

quick locust
#

I would go system76 laptop i think

#

But I've no need rn

opaque saddle
#

I got a power bank that can charge my MacBook Pro on the go

#

The 97w power bank works and it changes my MacBook Pro tho

proud trellis
#

so on BF1 my GPU utlization is not going up to 100% , its around 50-60 and my temps are also stuck at 50-60 ... im playing ultra settings too

quick locust
#

can be many things

proud trellis
#

oh

quick locust
#

set gpu to pstate 0

#

and check if anythings being used fully

#

or if you have vsync/framerate limiter on

proud trellis
#

i do have my fps capped

weak girder
#

thats why

proud trellis
#

nah fuck this man

#

pc has gone to shit again !!

#

OH MY FUCKING GODDDD

quick locust
#

what

solar kestrel
#

have you tried restarting keanu

proud trellis
#

my FPS just jumping from 2 to 30 like a kids bouncy castle

solar kestrel
#

could you have overclocked your gpu to much

#

and now it doesnt wanna work properly

#

i tried overclocking my gpu and got artifacting all the time

proud trellis
#

I haven’t touched OC’ing

#

it’s just a heap of shit

solar kestrel
#

oh

#

make sure your using the graphics card and not some sort of integrated graphics

solar kestrel
#

there was a seperate file to download

#

and then i would run that command in it

#

or something like that

#

now i got this digital piece of shit phone on my screen lmao

quick locust
#

youre posting that in several channels

solar kestrel
#

idk

#

just throwing idead out there

ancient ridge

i think his computer crash

how fix?

storm osprey

Don’t play Firestorm

your telling a dude who plays it almost all the time to stop playing ok

storm osprey

You’re getting FS lobbies?

ancient ridge

there are no players

im on a laptop. 1x8 ddr4 ram, rtx 2060 and an i5-9300h with ssd but i seem to get aobut 50 fps on the lowest graphics in bf 1
its 50 fps on my 2nd bigger 75 hz monitor and about 35 fps on my 120 hz 250 nits laptop monitor

weak girder
#

1x8 ram ?!?!

velvet jay
#

yeah ik

weak girder
#

no wonder you get 50 fps

velvet jay
#

but still

#

even if it is 1x8 i shouldnt be getting 50 fps on the lowest settings

#

my old pc had 2x8 ddr3 1600mhz, fx-8300, rx 570 8gb and i was getting about 90 fps on medium-high settings

weak girder
#

well... yeah

#

90 fps is a bit of a stretch

#

but id expect the 1x8 to seriously limit perf

smoky sand
#

I got a 13 Year Old System with 1st Gen i7-Extreme 12 Threads and 13MB Cache

supple bane
#

single channel ram seriously limits performance in bf titles

smoky sand
#

990x

supple bane
#

it halves fps basically

smoky sand
#

24GB DDR3-1866

supple bane
#

so that would put you at 100 fps, which is to be expected

smoky sand
#

200 with 3090

supple bane

that vid

#

your issue is 1x8gb stick

solar kestrel
#

8 gb vs 16 gb

supple bane
#

bf titles hate single channel ram

velvet jay
#

the problem is he is on ultra settings and he is getting 35 fps

#

but im on the lowest settings and im getting 50 fps

supple bane
#

like i said

#

if you have 2x8gb ram you would double your fps

velvet jay
#

hmm ok

strong breach
#

Single Channel RAM: DrakeNo
Dual Channel RAM: DrakeYes

#

there's a huge difference in some games

#

at least RAM prices aren't sky high like GPU / CPU right now

modern gull
#

But it will benefit your fps in some games alot

supple bane
#

in most games its a small but noticeable increase

#

but in bf titles its basically double the fps

#

especially in really intense situations where the fps drops

modern gull
#

In the end x2 ram sticks in dual channel is better

supple bane
#

dual channel ram basically improves cpu performance. and because bf titles are so cpu intensive and your gpu wont often run at 100% usage, it makes it prime for single channel ram to be a big bottleneck

modern gull
#

Yes

supple bane
#

as single channel ram decreases cpu performance, and thus increases the cpu bottleneck

modern gull
#

i'd agree

#

it will help gpu get more usage

#

i saw the video you posted btw

#

now*

ehh

i dont like the white/grey accents

tawny kelp
#

thats what i did

#

i got fed up of upgrading and worrying about specs and shit

storm osprey
#

ehh, my problem with consoles is being told the experience im going to have

#

like.. ill drop shadows a step, AO, AA, lighting and you cant tell much of a difference but get 40 more fps

#

consoles you get what you get

quick locust

Consoles don't have freedom 🦅

Anyway, don't worry about specs too much

Not obsessively anyway

i run the same specs for 5 years normally

@proud trellis I saw an Instagram post about it and it looks pretty good yeah

#

I love the front panel design

proud trellis
#

idk why but it just reminds me of a lian li case

#

the price of it doesnt seem to bad either

#
#

£80 on overclockers

latent light
#

Damn i7-10700F only $230

#

i5-10400F for $142

modern gull
#

tf is this sorcery leo

#

Those intel cpus half broken or something? lol

#

Just bought and i9 9gen for 400 usd 😭

storm osprey
#

10400f has been around 155 for the longest time now

#

hell i bought a 10700kf for 290, 10700f is seemingly the only real price drop

#

"is intel cheaper than amd now"

thats been the case since the ryzen 5000 series has been announced...

modern gull
#

I should just have upgraded my motherboard aswell leo Would have gotten pcie 4.0 not that i would need it at this moment tho

storm osprey
#

cheapest 5600x is 300, 10600k msrp was 250 iirc?

#

granted 5600x has better performance, stock cooler, and better power consumption

#

5800x is borderline a joke of a cpu for its price, especially when compared to a 10700/k/f

modern gull
#

lol

storm osprey
#

5800x main perk is better power consumption, but it costs 100 bucks more at least...

modern gull
#

Personaly i dont care about power consumption

#

Mostly about performance

#

and price ofc

opaque saddle
#

remember amd was trying to undercut intel back then

#

pretty normal for companies to boost their sales and market share

storm osprey
#

so like ive been saying, they turned in their good guy card

opaque saddle
#

always good for consumers

#

any good competitions is good consumers

#

coz amd cant catch up with demand, intel wants to get all the potential customer from amd, meaning if they wanted to switch from intel to amd

storm osprey
#

i dont see the consumer gains when theres better competition but that comes with a higher price tag

opaque saddle
#

they will be able to secure their current customer base who are also using intel

storm osprey
#

the gains to be had at this moment really come from lack of stock

opaque saddle
#

intel was the worst back then

#

if you remember 4c4t for 250 bucks, yeah nah

#

still because amd is brave enough to set the price up high while intel was struggling to sell their old stocks

#

i dont see why would intel wanna hold their cpu stock in the warehouse

storm osprey
#

4th gen intel i got 4c8t for that price, when was 4c4t 250?

opaque saddle
#

aud

storm osprey
#

if it was before 4th gen then thats kind of reasonable

#

ah yea

opaque saddle
#

coz i remember a friend of mine got the 8400 for 329?

cant remember it how much to be exact

why does low settings on BFV look the same as ultra lol

#

i decided to just play low settings and i cant rlly tell any difference

storm osprey
#

surprisingly a lot of games are like this unless you take the time to look for differences

#

shit like ambient occlusion

proud trellis
#

COD is the only game i can rlly tell as the floor looks like clay

storm osprey
#

thats probably just textures

#

which i always run ultra

proud trellis
#

ahh shit yeah

#

i think i play high textures

#

and high shadows i think is the other one

storm osprey
#

for "competitive" games i always do low/off everything but textures

proud trellis
#

yeah

#

textures on low pisses me off

#

it doesnt even look like cod imo , its like some shitty roblox looking version

kind kiln
#

Textures in most AAA games on highest possible settings look really ugly these days

#

Dunno why is that

#

Most games still use 1024x1024px or 2048x2048px, low quality bump mapping, parallax mapping, no cubemapping, meh shaders

#

I'd love to see better textures some day

proud trellis
#

what even is parallax mapping ? its in rust and all it does it leave some big ass line on your screen

kind kiln
#

Because it isn't done properly in that game

#

It's enhancement of bump/normal maps

proud trellis
#

ohhh is it not

kind kiln
#

U know, because standard texture is just plain and doesn't shine or anything at all. It needs proper material setting, bump maps and other shit like that

#

textures aren't as simpla as one think

proud trellis
#

yeah

kind kiln
#

I wonder how many know that Anisotropic filtering is bound to texture quality

shrewd summit

can anyone help me fix punkbuster?

wat

quick locust
#

Thats first priority

#

usually

#

(refering to earlier comments not anisotropic filtering)

kind kiln
#

Ah ok

#

Meaby that will change soon™️ due to the new gen consoles

quick locust
#

Yeah but only if they drop last gen

#

And that might take while

kind kiln
#

they should drop consoles

#

and start doing GPUs for cryptominers

#

so normal people can get one too

quick locust
#

:P

#

There's a general supply issue rn which is not just due to miners

kind kiln
#

it is mostly due to them

quick locust
#

Not really

#

They just worsen it

kind kiln
#

By a lot

quick locust
#

But the production in the first place is super low

kind kiln
#

Ehterum is way more popular than bitcoin

quick locust
#

Look at stuff miners dont buy

#

And those are in low supply too

kind kiln
#

And in china they have thousands of mining facilities with millions of new GPUs

quick locust
#

Miners and scalpers worsen it but they arent primary cause

#

2017 spike was miners

#

who mostly went for specific cards

#

Especially vega cards

quick locust
#

Tax on computers and electronics is increasing here

#

with the blank media tax

Cause they say any device with internal storage can be used for piracy for media content, so all of them will get a tax that will be given to distributors

#

does anyone know what could be causing my BFV to freeze in the menu when first loading on

#

in matches i run the game fine but its just when i load the game first up in the menu and the start of matches

weak girder

does that for me too

#

it just takes a couple of seconds to load everything

and Im pretty sure it happens for everyone

it sucks that dlss on bf5 is only available on rtx cards

that reminds me actually

i need to move BFV onto my SSD

weak girder
#

ah

#

problem aolved

proud trellis
#

do SSD'S actually give any advantage

#

or is it just load times

weak girder
#

load times

#

they dont improve performance

#

but they can make textures load faster

proud trellis
#

ahh rlly

#

so that should help me in game cant it ?

#

with the lagging when i first load on

weak girder
#

yeah

proud trellis
#

yay

#

so do you think it could also help stop stuttering , idk how to say it

#

the game usually calms down when i have been over most of the map

weak girder
#

no it wont help stuttering

#

it can reduce stuttering when you first go in an area of thr map tho

#

but it wont fix stuttering if thats a recurrent issue

proud trellis
#

when u first spawn in , you know how the camera slowly zooms down to the ground

#

its mainly that point that stutters

#

when the game first starts

digital finch
#

should be able to help with stutters at least

#

might be an older drive thats causing you issues

It's just for on screen statistics

ohh thats what it is then

Its what they use for overlay in games

MSI afterburner auto launches it if you close it while afterburner is running

Yeah... It's not a great time to build a PC...

modern gull
#

Wonder why dice decided to do that

#

Funny thing is comparisons i have seen, using dlss removes alot of the over sharpening dice did with bf5

supple bane
#

You need to run high resolution for any game I think

#

Because the whole idea of dlss is you upscale a low resolution to a high one

supple bane
#

I might be wrong

modern gull
#

example in fortnite you can use dlss in 1080p its just dice that decided to disable it i suppose

#

seeing how great it looks with dlss i really want it now lol

proud trellis
#

what even is DLSS

modern gull
#

There you can see with dlss the image gets smoother and more plesant compared to regular one which they over sharpened

proud trellis
#

doesnt it boost your FPS

modern gull
#

most games that support dlss has 3 settings

#

performance, balanced and quality

#

performance is being basicaly rendered in 720p if 1080p

#

btw TAA low without dlss should give same result as with TAA on high form them photos

supple bane
#

Uses an algorithm to fill in the gaps

supple bane
#

And its almost impossible to notice a difference between traditional rendering at that resolution and using dlss. But you get a massive performance boost out of it

proud trellis
#

isnt DLSS only in the 30 series cards ?

#

or is it RTX cards

modern gull
#

That guy doing post processing for bf5 over sharpened the image. With dlss it becomes abit blury and not soo oversharpened

supple bane
modern gull
#

it kind of looks abit smudgy ngl

#

but its more plesant to look at

You need to click the image to see the diffrence

proud trellis

they seem the same this time lol

lol

fallow garden
#

dlss is only on 20 and 30 series cards...oh

#

rip

#

me with 1060

modern gull
#

dlss image looks much better to me as the post process guy in bf5 over sharpen everything

#

200% sharpness OMEGALUL

proud trellis
#

i would only use it to get more frames tbh

modern gull
#

Same, but in case of bf5 i would use it over regular

proud trellis
#

tried watercooling but idek if i done it right

keep seeing builds in this case , it looks better in every vid

supple bane
#

The rgb ruins it

#

Its a minimalist case, doesn't work with rainbows

proud trellis
#

i wouldnt have it all purple

#

and probs not use RGB ram

#

cable managing would be the part of building a pc that would piss me off alot

supple bane
#

Wanna know the hardest part, for me at least

#

The fans

#

Because if you use a hub, and the cables aren't long. Then the hub will have to go in the middle of the motherboard tray, and the fans just run straight across the back

molten coral
#

Installing the fans was painful

#

I've so many cables with mine that I didn't even care about making it neat and tidy.

#

Good thing you can't seem them tho ameowthinkingsmirk

proud trellis
#

dont RGB fans have like 2 or 3 seperate cables ?

molten coral
#

2 cables each

proud trellis
#

tbh i thought installing fans would be one of the easiest parts

#

i think an AIO would be harder to install

molten coral
#

Good thing I've a big compartment behind the motherboard or else I wouldn't have been able to close the case.

proud trellis
#

you have the 011 case dont u ?

molten coral

@proud trellis you have a corsair aio right ? How does the rgb work with that ?

I have a Corsair AIO H115i--connects via a header plug to USB.

Can also connect to a hub, same cable.

Gotta sleep, night.

there is a sata cable and a 3 pin connecter I’m pretty sure that come off of the block

I know on most models of Corsair u can control the RGB tho

that’s the 3 pin

and then there is a sata cable that’s in the back for the RGB to work

it's annoying me the more i look at it LUL

ahh wait i know something

nvm i cant find it

slate rivet

inb4 it's actually 239gb

proud trellis
#

i found it

supple bane
slate rivet
#

256 is standard aswell as 512, 128

supple bane
#

its because binary is base 2

slate rivet
#

but 240 is odd

supple bane
#

1x2^8=256

slate rivet
#

taking me back to college days doing binary

weak girder
#

but 240?

#

could it be that he has partitioned it accidently

supple bane
#

maybe its because of some kind of overhead

slate rivet
supple bane
#

no it says 240gb on the label lol

weak girder
#

ok that is wierd

supple bane
#

the available storage is 256 but some is lost to redundancy or cache or something idk

proud trellis
#

this is something i just saw too , how come about 70 gb's are took off of the 1TB HHD/SSD's

slate rivet
#

prolly cache etc

supple bane
#

yeah thats something windows does

proud trellis
#

ohh

slate rivet
#

might act as a reserve

supple bane
#

you named your drive hhd too, not hdd

#

have fun looking at that every day lol

proud trellis

i can just change the name

supple bane
#

just make sure to keep the letter the same tho

slate rivet
#

F otherwise

proud trellis
#

huh

digital finch
#

😆

near rune
#

Its cache

#

That takes up space

slate rivet
#

got to love windows

supple bane
#

so it will go to that specific drive letter then go down the root to find the game

digital finch
#

he mentioned prebuilt so its probably an ssd thats made for those

supple bane
#

but if the drive letter changes then steam wont be able to find your games

#

and any application for that matter

proud trellis

ohh so u mean the bracket'd letter i cant change

yh

slate rivet

Windows (C:) don't change the C lol

but ig

I get wierd stutters when I lower my refresh rate in games

proud trellis

obvs i can run 144hz on CSGO and valorant as they are piss easy to run

but on BFV etc i just use 60

slate rivet

csgo doesn't need that much resource tbf

wonder what 360hz looks like for valorant

turn off dx12 just fyi

I think he already tried

weak girder

is it not ?

slate rivet

Lowering the framerate lowers what the cpu has to do

will you upgrade?

on BFV its around 70-80 now im down to 60hz

even a quad core doesnt bottleneck a 1660 super

@weak girder Battlefield V prefers 8 threads over 6 physical cores

So no surprise Ryzen 3 3100/3300X runs smoother

proud trellis
#

what do threads even do tho ?

latent light
#

Ima give you an example

#

If a person were a core, threads would be his arms

#

Having 2 threads per core is optimal work flow

quick locust

IBM: 🕷️

Well that is near invisible on mobile

so it that why they do 6c 12 threads

quick locust

yeah through i alder lake half will have HT half wont

which is weird

#

and IBM has 8 threads per core lul

latent light
#

Intel also had CPUs with more than 2 threads per core

Not for consumer

AMD may plan SMT4 with Zen4 or Zen5

There is speculation that Epyc CPUs will get 4 threads per core within a couple generations

Alder-Lake is seemingly designed for Windows 10X or maybe ChromeOS
