[clever gulch]

Is there a way to change the fps lock to 240?

In bf4

[midnight crypt]

console commands

[chrome skiff]

yeah hit tilde key and type in gametime.maxvariablefps 240

[clever gulch]

Thanks dawg

[unreal locust]

Unfortutely, This 1700X will be useless on Windows after 2025.

[prime jasper]

Bitch what

[lofty light]

I'm never using mine again now

[digital hill]

Eeh I can use mine no bug can climbs ceilings right? right?

[midnight crypt]

There is that one thing that has 8 legs

[prime jasper]

5-axis CNC machine were using to create visors/masks for bomb squads.

[latent pebble]

Can I use a 4 Years Old 750 Watt 80+ GOLD PSU with a 3090 and a R5 5600X?

[gleaming arrow]

Better change it to be honest

[digital hill]

@latent pebble If it has 10 years warranty then yes

[pale quartz]

you're coming close to peak power consumption, it's possible to use it yes, however don't be surprised if you trip OCP and end up blacking out the system sparsely

ideally you should underclock the card by say 8-10% or reduce the power load from 100% to 95% to give some sort of manageable breathing room for power

[unreal locust]

speaking of that, I am debaiting on switching to an EVGA 1000 watt unit from a Corsair RM750

the lastest 3070Ti requires a 750watt PSU at the minimum now.

[cloud solar]

idk, i had one of the connectors start melting on my evga psu

i dont think ill buy another tbh

[unreal locust]

Corsair RM1000x seems good

[prime jasper]

damn I wonder how that ended up getting resolved

Lol

Fire

Apparently it was a Scorpion

that somehow makes it a little less scary to me; I figured it was a spider

[pale quartz]

these are not "minimum" specifications

they are recommended power specifications, aka ones that the manufacturer guarantees you won't run into any issues with

lower will work there is just no guarantee it will work, well, effectively

[toxic wigeon]

Im just wondering if going for a 850w power supply would be better now

[latent pebble]

@pale quartz im really stuck with that PSU ATM, i never wanted a 3090 but i was gifted one, i used to run a R5 1600af and a GTX 1070 SLI just fine with a 750w psu. Ever since i was gifted the 3090 and there is an obvious bottleneck that had to be dealt with, either get the R7 5800x and pay extra for a cooler and have to change the PSU. Or get a R5 5600x and cut down the cost of the cooler and the PSU swap since it draws 65W just like the 1600AF

Im currently running it fine with the r5 1600af just fine but with obvious bottleneck

My psu is the FSP Hydro G 750W 80+ Gold

[pale quartz]

the first setup has a far lower powerdraw than the second, the 5600x has a TDP of 65W it will infact draw more power than that, TDP does not indicate what a component will actually consume in power

both the 5600x and 5800x will draw around 120W of power as a standard

[quick locust]

Intels tdp is closer to power draw

Since it's PL1 and PL2

AMD does not include W at all in their tdp

[gleaming arrow]

1000w is pretty overkill, but if you want 1000w i would recommend seasonic prime tx

[chrome skiff]

You are going to be fine for the time being I have a triple 8 pin 3080ti that draws 380 watts on average stock and a 5900x overclocked and my pc doesn't breech 670 watts. It will be close yes but fine. I have a ups telling me my active power draw and It has never hit 700 with this new system

[strong breach]

i was just thinking of upgrading my old PSU to a new 1000w one

as my old one is starting to get quite old, had it for 7ish years

[chrome skiff]

well what brand is it? psu now adays kinda come with 10 year warranties

[strong breach]

i can't even remember

[chrome skiff]

well high end psu

[strong breach]

but i know it sucks, it used to power my gtx770

and now it powers my RTX3080

😄

[chrome skiff]

I have my og psu from 780ti launch day and I have a 3070 on it hehe its old but reliable

so yeah mine is old too I'm not to worried about it, I mean if you have something funky going on like shutting down or something sure, someone said it earlier they are overkill but the seasonic prime titanium series is my new go to very good psu

[latent pebble]

@chrome skiff
I just need it to hold tight a couple months, and ill get a 1000watt psu. My psu has 5 years warranty 4 of which has been spent, but its a good brand, never had any issue with it over the last 4 years of heavy use, FSP is really underrated

[strong breach]

some fans have started to make unpleasant noise

so im replacing my my case + psu :D

that should fix the issue

waiting for black friday mostly :)

[chrome skiff]

if your pc isn't shutting down or anything crazy the psu is doing its job it will be fine 750 watts fine, like I said I have a high end gpu and a high end cpu it doesn't even touch 700. watts

[restive compass]

Xbox is the Nokia of pc

That’s all I’m gonna say

[latent pebble]

@chrome skiff only time my pc went into a boot loop or shut down when it was running is when i tried to overclock my cpu, and the mb would blink red meaning cpu malfunction or smth when i read the manual

At everything stock, runs fine.

[chrome skiff]

idk where you live and I'm not allowed to link it but newegg has the 750 watt titanium seasonic in stock for 138 usd like 25 dollar sale

[chrome skiff]

that sounds more like a bad overclock, the gains from stock to overclock isn't worth risking your pc if you're that worried or unsure don't over clock it

[strong breach]

my current one is 850w but it's bronze rating 😄

[quick locust]

I use a 1000W

[latent pebble]

@strong breach https://www.newegg.com/p/1HU-0095-000H2

[quick locust]

Overkill but silent

[strong breach]

that looks neat!

[chrome skiff]

have you tried dusting it out? might make it less loud I just never had a psu fan go that bad and loud but I hope it doesn't cause you any other issues

[strong breach]

i mean it might as well just be a case fan

that's doing the noise

but i mostly just want a bigger wattage so i don't have to worry about overclocking and running out of power

[latent pebble]

FSP is underrated, only old people would know the brand. They use japanese capacitors afaik, been using the 750W model for 4 years now, runs quite and cold

[quick locust]

FSP makes most common PSUs

Just rebranded

[chrome skiff]

the pc won't die if you take 1 fan out at a time, just unplug 1 fan and see if it's the loud one then replace it. or go to the new case and if the sound is still there then replace it

[quick locust]

Iirc most corsair psus are FSP made

[latent pebble]

@quick locust yep it does make psus for other brands

[quick locust]

Yeah

While corsair, thermaltake etc are just rebranded

[latent pebble]

@strong breach if youre looking for a case, try the XPG battlecruisers, comes with 4 pre installed ARGB fans at a good price

[chrome skiff]

sounds like a sale rep hehe

[quick locust]

It wouldn't even if you took all of them out

[latent pebble]

https://www.newegg.com/black-xpg-battlecruiser-atx-mid-tower/p/2AM-00DT-00002

[chrome skiff]

I understand but it sounds like he has 1 bad fan is all.

[latent pebble]

@chrome skiff stuff i use, is the only stuff i recommend lol. I also have a suprim 3090, which i dont recommend to anyone

Msi is just garbage.

[quick locust]

I know, just meant it won't die even with no fans

[chrome skiff]

3090 supers are on the edge of coming out just sell your 3090 and get the super

[latent pebble]

@chrome skiff i wanna sell it and get a 3080ti

But it was a gift, so i cant.

3090 is overkill for me

[quick locust]

I use a 2080 ti, happy I don't have to look for GPUs this gen

[chrome skiff]

they are all too close to the same price and the performance is too similar I honestly wouldn't I was teasing

[latent pebble]

My PC isnt built for a 3090

And i also game on a 2k display

[quick locust]

Why 1080p?

1440p decent mid

[latent pebble]

Its not like im using what the 3090 has to offer. Im just holding it back

[quick locust]

Use 1440p instead lul

[chrome skiff]

I have my old 2080ti overclocked and it out paces a majority of 3080s 128% pl 225 core and 1200 memory thing never went over 40c love my 2080ti

[quick locust]

Or 2160p

[chrome skiff]

he saidbhe games at 2k

[quick locust]

And 2K is 1080p

[latent pebble]

@quick locust i have an odyssey g5 27" 144hz 1440p va monitor

2k is 1440p

[quick locust]

I just correct people in here in that 2K is 1080p

No

[chrome skiff]

yeah a quick Google seems like Google agrees 2k is 1440p that's immediately what I thought he meant anyways

[quick locust]

No it isn't

[chrome skiff]

so 4k is 3k?

[quick locust]

2K is 2048x1080

[chrome skiff]

andb8k is 7k?

see you made it complicated I never heard of 2048x1080

[quick locust]

But since most monitors are 16:9, 1920x1080 is closest to 2K

[latent pebble]

Ik 2k is anything above 2000 pixels

But have you ever seen a monitor 2048x 1080?

[quick locust]

They are cinema resolutions

Hence 1440p not being included

[chrome skiff]

well when I google 2k it says 1440p so I'm a stick with that

[quick locust]

It's wront

Wrong*

[latent pebble]

Mainstream 2k is 2560 x 1440

[quick locust]

Nah

The K system is for cinemas

Just adopted

[chrome skiff]

Google wrong? pffff when is Google wrong

[quick locust]

And 2K is closest to 1920x1080

[latent pebble]

Meh, samsung calls is WQHD

[quick locust]

Yeah

It does not have a K naming

[quick locust]

Yeah

2560x1440 is between them

And not 2K

[latent pebble]

Then what am I

2.5k

[quick locust]

It doesn't have one

But yeah you see 1920x1080 is the closest to 2K

Just slightly different aspect

[pale quartz]

^

common misconception

[quick locust]

Yeah

So many think 1440p is 2K

[latent pebble]

So if we hold the 16:9 aspect ratio

2k is 1440p

[quick locust]

No

[pale quartz]

no

[quick locust]

2K is 1080p

[chrome skiff]

you can make it difficult all you want i never heard anyone call 1080p 2k

[quick locust]

1440p does not have a value as it's not defined in DCI

[strong breach]

https://i.imgur.com/8CDbjUh.png

[chrome skiff]

Dont question it it just works

[latent pebble]

Lets ditch the K system then

And use 2160p, 1440p, 1080p, 720p and 480p

[quick locust]

If you look on samsung, aoc or the other OEMs they won't call 1440p for 2K either

[chrome skiff]

but if i google 2k monitors they are all 1440p

[quick locust]

You could do that or just the whole resolution

[latent pebble]

@quick locust samsung has its own branding with WQHD, UHD and so on

[quick locust]

Marketing is wrong, who would have thought

:P

[pale quartz]

those aren't it's own branding lol

it's a phone resolution

[quick locust]

QHD is since it's 4 times HD (720p)

[pale quartz]

the association which certifies resolutions does not include monitors into its count

big surprise consumers prefer a k over a p

[latent pebble]

Cuz its just a number

Instead of having to learn 4 digits

Its just 1

Whats above 2160, i have no idea, until it becomes mainstream maybe

But i do know its 8k

Or 6k

Idk

[chrome skiff]

this started cause he said he has a 2k montior and thats 1440p to him 1440p is a niche resolution to begin with i always refer to it as 1440p 4k and 1080p

[pale quartz]

1440p is not a niche resolution

[quick locust]

8K is 7680x4320

4 times the pixels of 4K

[pale quartz]

it has over 1/5th of the entire market for monitor sales

4k monitors support 1440p aswell

[latent pebble]

1440p is underrated, neglected by tvs only taken care of by monitors even Sony doesnt support it on PS5 since they care less bout monitors

[quick locust]

Yes (to deco)

[pale quartz]

it's not included in TVs since it makes absolutely no sense to have 1440p as a resolution at that pixel density scale

[latent pebble]

https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2020-11-10-sony-says-ps5-currently-doesnt-support-1440p-because-it-wants-to-prioritise-support-for-tvs

[quick locust]

I am a ghost that haunts #technology to correct people saying 1440p as 2K

[pale quartz]

the TVs are so big that 1080p and 4k are the only real suitable options

it suits monitors perfectly because they are 2/3rd's the size of a tv

[strong breach]

that's a weird reason as 4k TV's would really benefit from having games in 1440p instead of 1080p

Sony the heck

[pale quartz]

it's entirely logical

[latent pebble]

For my ps5 to use 1440p i have to turn off free sync, then the ps5 detects 2160p and the monitor downscales it to 1440p

[pale quartz]

TVs to begin with don't support 1440p

well, most don't

the crowd which benefit are monitors not TVs

[strong breach]

ah

[chrome skiff]

Out of this whole conversation i think i came to the conclusion your gpu is fine for your 2k monitor 😄

[latent pebble]

@chrome skiff i lost track of my main issue

[chrome skiff]

Yeah i honestly was just typing didnt really care but it drew it out for an extra few sentences

[quick locust]

Except it's 1440p

[arctic crag]

Should I make a new installation of windows 10 or wait for 11 release

[latent pebble]

https://tenor.com/view/face-punch-punch-minions-fine-happy-gif-4902917

[chrome skiff]

Its fine i never ever said you were wrong, you thought his 2k monitor was 1080p which coming down to it it might be closer but you were still wrong in assuming so since you had to be exact on the numbers

[quick locust]

Nah I know that 2K is 1080p and he was using it wrong

[latent pebble]

He was correcting me for saying 2k

[quick locust]

I was mocking at first

I need sleep

Some companies just use the K system wrong

Like benq

And a lot of amazon sellers

[chrome skiff]

I'd have to say if you were my bestbuy rep i would have to give you a bad review for how long this took to explain

[quick locust]

Well I'm happy I don't work for bestbuy

[chrome skiff]

me too

[quick locust]

But yeah could be more brief

Or just write one longer detailed message

Also imo the p isn't very necessary

Since most by far run progressive so not much need to specify

No idea of anyone that would run 2560x1440i

Well when talking about displays

[opaque saddle]

Most of the cables are the rebranded Chinese Taobao products. So the Taobao sellers raised up the price 2-3 times and to sell it on Amazon, using with their ways to sell it like on Taobao and they will earns even more profits.

[quick locust]

Yeah

[gleaming arrow]

Dude we have the same monitor

[latent pebble]

@gleaming arrow do you like it?

[gleaming arrow]

Yeah

My experience with it so far great, i have no issues

Wbu @latent pebble

[latent pebble]

@gleaming arrow when i was buying it, there was an acer one 1500R Curve, 1440p and 165 HZ also VA Panel and was thinking bout getting that one

Thing is samsung is good and all but it feels cheap, fixed mount, no vertical movement at all just tilting, and no USB hub is my only issue with this diplay

[gleaming arrow]

I see i see

I was about to getting the odyssey g7 one but after seeing the price i'm changing my mind

My only issue with the g5 probably the tilt

Also what gpu do you use btw @latent pebble

[supple bane]

you can get arms for next to nothing on amazon

that will offer all the movement you need

[keen shore]

Anyone got this monitor?
LG 24gl600f

[midnight crypt]

[latent pebble]

360 usd for a R5 5600X

Fair price or scam?

I paid for it anyways through Amazon and should get it tomorrow

[opaque saddle]

our cheapest 5600X when it is on sale is only 319 AUD...

[keen shore]

I got mine for 300 usd

[opaque saddle]

only 210.5 USD (exclude tax here)

i think if you can find one under 300 will be a good deal

[supple bane]

I spent 4 hours yesterday getting windows 11

Having to switch bios to uefi, which meant making all my drives gpt and it wouldnt play ball, so it took me a very long time lol

Much longer than it should have

I had been putting it off for months cuz i knew it would be a pain, and i wasnt wrong

[proud trellis]

aint no way am i installing that if it takes you guys a while

[supple bane]

It depends how your pc is setup

If you are already using uefi its literally just click update

[molten coral]

Cheapest 5600x here is 280 euro so 450 AUD

[chrome skiff]

They are 272 on sale right now on amazon? Are you sure you arent paying more for shipping or something?

[quick locust]

BattlEye for linux too

Confirmed

So both eac and BattlEye will worj

Six Siege on linux here we go

[cloud solar]

what if they just made games work natively on linux instead of forcing ppl to emulate windows with all sorts of issues

i think they should do that first

[midnight crypt]

because it costs more money and dev time

[cloud solar]

true

[quick locust]

Yeah

Some do native

Others use proton/wine official support

(Which is not emulating)

[pale quartz]

2 reasons, market rate, and maintainability

Linux makes up a tiny amount of the total people playing games on a platform, building native binaries for Linux means you need then add in additional dedicated resources to keep it up to date, which can't be justified due to how small the Linux scene is overall

[cloud solar]

yeah yeah, the amount of work it takes isnt enough to justify the next to 0 profit increase

i still think itd be cool

[pale quartz]

sure, would it be feasible, the lackthereof of game development teams on Linux would answer that question

[latent pebble]

amazon eg :/

[tidal kite]

Sorry guys does you say 1650 will run normally battlefield??

[pale quartz]

[pale quartz]

[prime jasper]

linux?

I'm sure that linux isn't that gaming but it's just coding some shit.

I never been on Linux

[desert lark]

my bf5 orgin say that i need to close ea desktop but i type ea theres nothing there anyways to fix this

[tacit cosmos]

does EA play pro get the beta
or the game

[marsh gull]

its getting good for gaming

i have its pretty good for gaming

[iron echo]

Easy anti cheat now can support Linux through wine, now it's practically almost perfect to switch now

Of course it still depends on games you play, I'd have a dual boot setup

[marsh gull]

thats what i have

[atomic jackal]

is it safe to install the kb5005565 update

since every update causes some issue

at some point

[pale quartz]

update is fine, issues were resolved a while ago

[kind kiln]

find it in task manager, probably left some background process

once you kill it the problem should be solved

[supple bane]

it still offers no advantages to the majority of users over windows yet still has a whole host of disadvantages.

so its still a long way off being perfect

[quick locust]

Yeah though it's getting fewer and fewer issues

Compared to 5 years ago the progress is massive

[molten coral]

''fixed'' my microphone arm

[strong breach]

Woah @molten coral

your inner engineer is coming out

[pale quartz]

[quick locust]

Flex tape

[molten coral]

Annoying thing is that I can't find a replacement ring for it

[tropic halo]

Got bf1 ultimate like a week ago and played with premium and unlocked some weapons and shit. today i wanted to play again and my premium got deleted. i have lost all access to premium maps and weapons. Does anyone know the reason for this?

[midnight crypt]

Ask EA support

[tropic halo]

already did. But they are pretty slow. wanted to ask if it is a common glitch. thought it would be faster

[dry pike]

You picked the most unsexy tape color possible. At least it looks like painters tape so at least it will be easy to take off if that's the case.

[molten coral]

Didn't had any other tape

[dry pike]

I think I might have everything you need, 2 sec

[dry pike]

There we go, everything you need

[molten coral]

Nice, can I have the red and blue one so I can mix them

[dry pike]

Notice the microphone and the working arm too 😄

[supple bane]

How.. that thing is like what, 150 pounds? And it broke?!

[molten coral]

only a small piece of plastic holds the microphone and that broke @supple bane

[dry pike]

Røde support is supposed to be pretty good, I would try writing them asking if that mistake is common, they might just send you a replacement for free.

[supple bane]

Thats stupid for such an expensive mic

[molten coral]

I think I need a warranty number for that Carbonic and I don't have the box so rip that.

But I'll e-mail them anyway

[dry pike]

For simple cheat replacements companies like that are usually pretty good.

[molten coral]

Also lets hope this small piece of text will keep my server stable

[molten coral]

If they are as good as Logitech's support than they probably will just sent a replacement.

[hidden plover]

how in the world did that happen

[quick locust]

logitech support is varying

at least for me

I had same issue on two G933 but they said I only can get one warranty replacement

Loose power slider causing loose connection there

[molten coral]

I've a logitech powerplay mousepad and the mousepad didn't stick to the base anymore for some reason so instead of sending me a new pad they just replaced the whole unit.

Got that problem again but I just taped the mousepad on it with double sided tape this time

[molten coral]

I usually grab the microphone to move the arm up/down and as it's pretty weak it just broke

[supple bane]

I grab the arm

Just under the mic

[dry pike]

I grab all the things

So far mine holds up

[hidden plover]

i grab the mic as well

[molten coral]

I had a cheap arm before this and did that for 4 years until I switched to this arm like 1,5 year ago

[hidden plover]

have no issues with damage on the arm

[molten coral]

it's probabyl just a thing with the PSA1 arm

[hidden plover]

did you use a shockmount or no?

but man that fix looks.. interesting

[molten coral]

I don't use a shockmount

[prime jasper]

Glad im not an iPhone user

Cause f that

[molten coral]

I wouldn't mind a portless phone tbh, wireless charging has been really good the last few years.

[quick locust]

Meanwhile me

Portless phone will be interesting

[molten coral]

I don't really use the port on my iphone 12 so yeah I really wouldn't mind it

[quick locust]

Haven't tried wireless yet

[molten coral]

Just one more weak point out of the system

[quick locust]

Don't think i ever damaged a usb port

Some chargers get loose over time though

One thing annoying about this phone is that I have to take out battery to switch sim card

Though that isn't a common thing to do anyway

[molten coral]

which phone is that?

[quick locust]

Samsung galaxy xcover 4s

Wish I waited a bit longer for 4 pro, it has quite a bit bigger battery

4000 vs 2800 i think

[molten coral]

depending on price that is quite the difference

[quick locust]

The 5th has 3000

Portless cars would be annoying

[midnight crypt]

No

Game is not out so it cant

Do you guys have any recommended headset

Good for gaming n music

[manic glacier]

Yup

https://fr.steelseries.com/gaming-headsets/arctis-9

The mic kinda sucks for the price of the headset, but is still ok. However, the sound is just incredible, clear and clean. It’s a wireless one

If u want a wire, I can show u this one

https://www.razer.com/fr-fr/gaming-headsets/Razer-BlackShark-V2/RZ04-03230200-R3M1

Not expensive, good mic and good sound, but a wire….

@gleaming arrow

[gleaming arrow]

Thanks!

[cloud solar]

a full wireless phone is the shittiest idea ever and thats why i think apple would be the ones to do it

and theyll charge you the same price even though you have less features with a portless phone lol

[pale quartz]

it isn't a terrible idea necessarily, the technology just hasn't matured enough to warrant it yet with Qi charging and the limited input current combined with the short distance

[cloud solar]

i like my wired headphones thanks

also being able to plug my phone into my pc to transfer pics and stuff

i just think moving to wireless entirely just bc they want to keep things proprietary is stupid and they would totally do it

[clear shuttle]

Logitech G Pro X Wireless...because it's wireless.

[pale quartz]

I was referring to wireless charging specifically, though I'm not sure who really transfers stuff to their pc anymore since Google photos and the like exist

[cloud solar]

because google photos is ass and im not paying for cloud storage anyway

a phone with no port is stupid. theres literally 0 benefits to it

also i would really like phone chargers to not be 100$

which yk, portless phone would require a wireless charger so youd be spending a bunch of money on one

[quick locust]

I connect it to local NAS and backup with that.

I don't really use cloud storage after OneDrive decided my data should go woosh

I did a bit with samsung drive, but that is shutting down

[fallow garden]

Does anyone else already have Windows 11 too? If so, I have a question, when I restart my PC the restart loop is in a black background , however in windows 10 as u know the screen background is blue ( http://prnt.sc/1tpwfjf ), I can’t tell if it’s supposed to be a black background in windows 11 or is it a bug

[cloud solar]

its probably supposed to be black

and if it is a bug, well i mean youre using pre release software, whatd you expect

[fallow garden]

That’d be weird and boring

[fallow garden]

Yeah, it’s whatever tho, eventually all this will be fixed when it officially releases or something

[cloud solar]

i doubt it seeing how it releases in like 10 days

[cloud solar]

maybe it changes with your selected system color or smth idk

[solar kestrel]

my keyboard is stuck in fn mode

so i cant type numbers in shit

[cloud solar]

hit it with a hammer

[solar kestrel]

i have a sixty percent keyboard

i dont know if hitting it with a hammer will work

[pale quartz]

its an intentional change

[fallow garden]

intentional change🧐

[pale quartz]

yes, the design background was changed

its not a bug, its how its supposed to be

[fallow garden]

Itll be like that when it officially releases too?

[pale quartz]

yes

[fallow garden]

yo

just black?

[pale quartz]

yeah..?

[fallow garden]

whyd they do that, thats boring if we think about it

[pale quartz]

i mean its not, its just you saying that

[atomic jackal]

guys

if i use cheap mobo with high end parts

will i damage the high end parts?

[midnight crypt]

how cheap are you going

[atomic jackal]

uh i got a prime b450m-k

with a 3060 and ryzen 5 3600

[midnight crypt]

Its an asus board i wouldnt expect any problems to occur

[dry pike]

Every part that delivers power to another can hurt that other component if it does something it shouldn't do. It is more likely that a cheap PSU will do that, but since more an more power delivery is moved to the motherboards a cheap motherboard could dmg components. 3060+3600 is not something I would upgrade due to but if it was a 5900 and a 3080 I would consider it.

[pale quartz]

youll be fine

the VRM's on the board arent going to explode from it, just rule out any overclocking on the processor and using the board in the long term

[atomic jackal]

none of my components are overclocked

[pale quartz]

im meaning you ruling out manually overclocking it

do that, you'll be fine

[atomic jackal]

you mean to not overclock or remove any overclock that has been done?

[pale quartz]

to not

in other words dont touch any CPU BIOS setting other than enabling XMP

and if you have a high grade memory kit dont expect the board to be stable at its rated frequency and CAS latency

it'll work otherwise

[atomic jackal]

i have a 3200mhz ram and it works as it should

[latent light]

Intel's graphics cards rumored to be named 'Intel Arc Axxx' series

So like Intel Arc A700 for example

[pale quartz]

3200 is the normal

it'll work fine, kits such as CL163600 on the other hand, probably not

[atomic jackal]

ive never even heard of that

[latent light]

Rumor from videocardz

[pale quartz]

thats a rumour?

thought it was well known reason why its called alchemist

[latent light]

Not the Arc part of the name but the 'Axxx' bit

[pale quartz]

weird seemed pretty normal to me

[latent light]

i9-12900K much faster than R9 5950X in single-core

[pale quartz]

take any benchmark numbers with a massive pinch of salt they're more than likely dead wrong

especially that 825 digit

not even big.little will achieve performance numbers as big as that

[latent light]

That's the single-core performance of Golden Cove (P-cores) cores, not anything to do with the E-cores

[atomic jackal]

why are all the new stuff in china first

[latent light]

China leaks info all the time

[pale quartz]

we still have no clue have single core calculations are being run for big.little so take it with a massive grain of salt

anything thats leaked performance wise will be wildly variable and dead wrong more than likely until ADL actually launches

[pale quartz]

simple answer

[latent light]

From Intel's own presentation, 12th gen has 19% higher IPC than 11th gen, which also had a 19% gain over 10th gen

It makes sense why it scores 825 in cpu-z

[pale quartz]

chinese companies produce PC parts, so get prototype samples to work with @atomic jackal

[supple bane]

Because the majority of electronics are designed and built in china. At least asia

[pale quartz]

if anything has been learned by now

its to never trust intel's benchmark presentations lol

[latent light]

Ik lol

[atomic jackal]

btw will cinebench and such cause damage to components?

[supple bane]

No

[latent light]

11th gen is really only like 10% faster than 10th gen in gaming and typical usage despite 19% IPC claim

[atomic jackal]

i want to use cinebench but im worried whether itll damage the cpu or not

[supple bane]

Why would they?

[atomic jackal]

since they put extraordinary loads

on the component

[supple bane]

Thats not how that works

100% load is 100% load

Doesnt matter if its rendering a funny cat video or calculating the trajectory of a rocket going to mars

[pale quartz]

technically 100% isnt actually 100%

[supple bane]

I know

[pale quartz]

youre right, but for the wrong reason

[supple bane]

Im just trying to keep it simple

[pale quartz]

@atomic jackal the worst that can is that the processor can overheat, this will not damage the component, safety power mechanisms are built into the processor to automatically cut the power once a certain temperature has been reached, its entirely safe

youll just get a black screen and a reboot will happen

[supple bane]

To expand, what reason do you have to use cinebench ?

[atomic jackal]

i want to see my score

or my cpu's

i download it from guru3d right

[latent light]

@pale quartz btw even tho 12900K is faster than 5950X in benchmarks, it won't be such a significant difference in gaming

Zen 3 still stomps 11th gen in many titles

[pale quartz]

oh no it definitely will be faster, there's just far too much that hasnt been documented yet in regards to how big.little scaling is handled by x86 to draw any definitive conclusions

intel's process identifier for one

and 50 other things

[atomic jackal]

@supple bane do i download cinebench from guru3d

[supple bane]

Just get it from maxon 3d's website

[atomic jackal]

its with money there i think

[supple bane]

Nope

[latent light]

Wait for 13th gen and Zen 4 thats when DDR5 manufacturing will be more matured and maybe won't be as many hiccups with 12th gen

[pale quartz]

well yeah thats why ADL numbers right now are basically as concrete as water

raptor lake leading up to royal core will be actually useful

[latent light]

i5-12600K is a very good choice for gaming imo

6+4 cores

[supple bane]

Could*

We still dont know yet :p

I hope it is

The more competition the better

[pale quartz]

lower end ADL will be a good choice

just purely by core configuration and production costs

though dont expect the rest of the hardware to be cheap

[latent light]

Zen 4 is a big threat, expecting upwards of 40% IPC gain over Zen 3+

[pale quartz]

nah definitely not happening

[latent light]

It's definitely possible

[pale quartz]

zen 3+? yeah, not over that

20%, best keep checks on the ground

[latent light]

Socket-to-socket generational jump

[pale quartz]

AM5 is a new platform but its not skyrocketing IPC by 40%

theres nothing coming out either to justify even 30% nevermind 40

[latent light]

First gen AM4 CPUs had over 40% IPC gain over final AM3+ CPUs, AMD aims to make that same type of jump with AM5

[pale quartz]

yeah, the difference is they changed the entire core layout and architecture to zen lol

[latent light]

Zen 4 is massively different than Zen 3/3+

[pale quartz]

zen 4 does nothing of the sort, 40% isnt happening, ill happily place money bets on it

20% of any IPC gains will be 3DV based not on the CPU

which will be in 3+, even AMD internally arent predicting anywhere near 40%

[latent light]

AMD made a 19% IPC jump from Zen2 to Zen3 while using the same 7nm node and Zen 3+ is gonna be at least 15% gain still using 7nm CCDs, only thing 6nm is the 3DV cache

[pale quartz]

not how that works

[latent light]

Zen 4 uses much more dense 5nm and has very significant architectural improvements, probably the best generational leap ever

[pale quartz]

zen 2 to zen 3 was dragged by the interconnected CCX which was how the majority of its IPC was gained, around 13% of it, zen 3+ has 3DV which will be 15-20% gains on that, but zen 4 has no fundamental changes that can be made from zen 3 for anywhere near that

ill happily place bets that zen 4 wont be 40%, rumblings internally are maxing at 30%

[latent light]

40% over Zen3+ calling it now

[pale quartz]

you can have dreams

[latent light]

Zen3+ has 1st gen 3DV, Zen 4 will have much more refined cache

You know, Zen 3 architecture is the first of Ryzen to feature a ring-bus

Zen 4 will improve on that too

[pale quartz]

yeah i know, i also know that who i've spoken to arent calling anywhere near 40%, and are mindful of RPL

ill keep on earth

[latent light]

RPL should be the around the same type of jump that ADL will be

Maybe even better

[atomic jackal]

i wonder when will tech hit singularity

will we just keep inventing shit really fast

[latent light]

There's more competition now than there was 5-10 years ago

[pale quartz]

one answer, never

lol

[latent light]

People are thinking Intel GPUs will be DOA because early developer drivers are unstable lol

[atomic jackal]

the human brain always finds a way

[latent light]

I believe once Intel Arc launches its software will be just as good as Radeon or even Nvidia

[pale quartz]

intel could release paper and thats it, it would still sell

all these doomsayers saying DG2 is DOA are going to get laughed at

[latent light]

Ye lol

RTX 3070 performance is not bad

16GB VRAM

[pale quartz]

3070ti being targeted

3070-3070ti performance

[pale quartz]

not how things work

[latent light]

Hopefully a 3070 Super killer

[pale quartz]

people who believe in the idea of a singularity dont understand how item production works and a thing called finite resources

[latent light]

3090/3080/3070/3060 are all getting Super refreshes in a few months

Allegedly

[pale quartz]

they're coming not a rumour anymore

AIBs have the SKUs

[latent light]

Yep

3060 Super is really good apparently

Faster than 3060Ti and 12GB VRAM

Basically on the heel of 3070

[pale quartz]

meh if nvidia are smart they will price gouge people till the end of the earth performance at this point doesnt matter

rtx 3050's could have a MSRP of $600 and you'd still never find them

[latent light]

RTX 3050 slower than 1660 Super btw

[pale quartz]

mhm

[latent light]

Only 4GB too

I don't know if AMD are gonna launch a GPU a tier lower than the RX 6600

Maybe towards RDNA3 launch

Yields are too good to build an inventory of low-tier weak chips

[molten coral]

I did reset my bios and now my system doesn’t detect my main screen

[atomic jackal]

lmaoo

its a scam card for sure

[molten coral]

[atomic jackal]

ive never seen a tv/monitor this wide

[supple bane]

its an ultrawide.

also once again, nacho coming in with the broken tech

[atomic jackal]

they really meant it when they said ultra didnt they

[pale quartz]

just throw a rock at it

it'll be more useful

[atomic jackal]

it would be impractical for me tho since i would have to turn my head to look at the target

[supple bane]

they arent great for competitive shooters, but id have one if i could afford it

[molten coral]

Everyone is saying that but I've this monitor for 2,5 years now and never do that.

[atomic jackal]

i mean

thats the most overkill monitor ive ever seen

[molten coral]

You're literally watching the sides with the corner of your eyes

[pale quartz]

oh theres way more overkill

[molten coral]

I know someone with the samsung G9

[supple bane]

Yeah its not a g9 for a start

[pale quartz]

im actually getting the g9 when i move out

[molten coral]

I want a G9 but it's so expensive

[supple bane]

The g9 is the best monitor imo

[pale quartz]

credit cards are useful

[molten coral]

I've been thinking to replace this monitor for a LG CX oled

[supple bane]

Dream monitor material

[molten coral]

I already have a 48'' version of the LG CX as my TV

[atomic jackal]

g9 ratings are low for some reason

3.1 out of 5

[molten coral]

But kinda waiting for a 43'' OLED from LG

[molten coral]

Switched ports on my GPU and it's working again

Think 1 DP port is fucked

[supple bane]

I think it had some teething issues iirc?

[atomic jackal]

one guy is saying its overhyped

other says gysnc doesnt work

other says screen flickers

[pale quartz]

ehh

[atomic jackal]

the other guy says it doesnt even post

[supple bane]

Those are the issues i had in mind

[pale quartz]

it has QA issues

[atomic jackal]

yeah

for a 2k monitor

thats dissapointing

its more expensive than my entire freaking setup

[supple bane]

Its the first of its kind

When has anything first of its kind been good 🙃

[atomic jackal]

lol

ive really not liked ultrawide monitors anyway

it looks like stretched dough

ill take a straight monitor thanks

[supple bane]

If i had the money id impulse buy one lol

You also need a killer gpu for it to be worth it tho

2x 1440p at 240hz eint easy

[atomic jackal]

the monitor itself is 21000 lira

my setup entirely is 17000

i wouldnt buy it even if i was rich

[molten coral]

Pretty funny that you say that as when I didn't had really had any income I used to say the same.

But nowadays I got an ok income and I just want quality in my life

[atomic jackal]

for reference

21000 liras is 11 months of minimum wage

just for a monitor

[midnight crypt]

Screw having to turn my head because my monitor is too big

[atomic jackal]

privileges of living in a first world country

if i lived in west europe or NA i would have bought 3080&5900 not 3060&3600

and im considered "slightly rich" by the country 's standards

the normal people can barely afford 1660

[supple bane]

What country do you live in again?

Oh wait

Lira

Turkey

Also just cuz its a first world country doesnt mean you are automatically rich enough to get loads of disposable income

[dim cobalt]

If you live in Norway and dont have lots of disposable income you are either mentally slow or on welfare

[boreal remnant]

can someone help me? my bf5 is stuttering and i cant seem to fix it

i play it on 4k max settings with raytracing and dlss enabled, my specs are

Cpu: ryzen 9 5900x , gpu : geforce rtx 3080ti amp holo zotac gaming , 64 gb ddr4 ram , samsung 970 evo plus nvme m.2 ssd 2tb

[latent light]

As long as temperatures are fine, it's probably a bad install

[boreal remnant]

mh,no?

my temps are normal and i did a clean install

so i think its a game problem

i've done some research and a lot have experienced this problem, even jackfrags talked about it in a youtube video

[midnight crypt]

Could be your net

[boreal remnant]

but i still cant find a way to fix it for myself

[boreal remnant]

30 ping

[midnight crypt]

But is it stable

[boreal remnant]

0 pl

[midnight crypt]

No packet loss/burst

[boreal remnant]

yes it is

how come am i having problems solely on bf5

[midnight crypt]

Its janky

[latent light]

You won't be able to fix it

[boreal remnant]

if its not my network and my pc, then its the game

[midnight crypt]

Its running non native dx12

So its janky

[boreal remnant]

mh

that could be why

i'm running dx12

[latent light]

DX11 + future frame rendering is the best way to play BF5 but you won't have RT or DLSS in that mode

[boreal remnant]

well i'm running dx12 cause its the base dx for a 3080ti

never seen anyone running dx11 on a 3k series,lol

[latent light]

DX11 has more stable frametimes than DX12 afaik

[boreal remnant]

not for rtx cards

if you have a 1080 than yeah

but every card after a 2060 will run better on dx12

[latent light]

https://youtu.be/7ldwFIe2mH0

DX11 more stable even with RTX GPU

You gotta realize, BF5 is a DX11 game at heart

[midnight crypt]

Also dlss for bf5 isnt that good

I think its dlss 1.0

[latent light]

DX12 was a late implementation in development and was solely added just for Nvidia features (RT, DLSS, ect.)

[boreal remnant]

im talking about general benchmarks

its not like if only bf5 runs shit cause doesnt implement newer tech then the older tech is better

i hope you get my point

https://videocardz.com/newz/intel-arc-graphics-card-with-dg2-128-gpu-might-feature-6gb-memory-leaked-photo-suggests

[boreal remnant]

too soon to buy intel

but at least we have a new competitor

which is surely gonna push both nvidia and amd to do better( with better prices too)

[latent light]

Intel DG2-512 is supposed to face the RTX 3070Ti

[boreal remnant]

3070ti is not that good

[latent light]

DG2-384 faces RTX 3060

[boreal remnant]

still too soon

better to wait for the new 4k series

they are literally putting 2 chips in one

[latent light]

Still 10 months away minimum

[boreal remnant]

not that much

[latent light]

LoveLace mass production is expected in summer 2022

Will be announced in August

Nvidia is doing 2 year cycles

Every RTX generation is gonna be announced in August, which we've seen with RTX 2000 and 3000

[cloud solar]

if intel is releasing a competitor to the 3070 ti it better be damn cheap bc thatll be last gen hardware by the time it comes out lmao

i am planning to buld a new pc budget limit is 3000-3500 $ made for gaming what cpu should i use

i am confused

[latent light]

GDDR6 RAM would be useful if it had iGPU enabled smh

[quick locust]

yeah but if that was working, it'd be a PS5

[latent light]

Well if they did enable iGPU for desktop, it would have far less compute units than the PS5

Honestly we desperately need powerful APUs like that than ever in order to help cope with GPU shortage

RDNA2 APU with ~20 CU would make entry/low-end GPUs worthless

[storm osprey]

i wouldnt get anything more than a 5800x personally, you can also build a damn good gaming pc for like... 1.5-2k

granted idk if you need a monitor, desk, mouse, keyboard, etc or what you are wanting to do

[latent light]

Intel DG2-512 vs RTX 3070 Ti

It should have been years ago

[pale quartz]

not so simple, USB standards take around 3 years to develop and certify

electronics is a difficult area

[toxic zealot]

all devices should have usb c port

[pale quartz]

thats impossible

different devices have different power requirements, not everything can have a USB C port

[toxic zealot]

usb c port is connector not interface

I dont care what requirements they have usb c has been used from usb 2.0 to thunderbolt 40gbps from apple

[pale quartz]

of course you should care, the requirements dictate what port is used to begin with

you cant just stick any old port on anything they follow hardware specifications for a reason

to make sure that EPS cables and the like dont go up in flames

[toxic zealot]

ofc im.not.gonna power gaming laptop and gaming pc off of that

Lol

But for data exchange everything should have usb c

[pale quartz]

Battlefield 2042 Open Beta PC requirements.

[proud trellis]

uhh

i think im kinda in the middle for them

idk

[supple bane]

Im right on recommended

This is beta anyway

It might still go down

[proud trellis]

well its gone up hasn't is for the recommended specs kinda? as the tech test GPU was a 2060 recommended. dont know what anything else was tbh

[pale quartz]

no, the recommended was a 2070

the requirements haven't changed at all really

[proud trellis]

ahh

[supple bane]

My hopes arent high that it will change but its still a posibility

[proud trellis]

i just want a new game to play really, if i can run it on low i will just get it as i want to upgrade in a few months anyway pretty much

[latent light]

3rd gen Ryzen CPU for minimum but 2nd gen for recommended

[proud trellis]

dice failed math

[latent light]

Also why i5-6600K? That CPU is already a stutterfest in BF5 because only 4 core/4 threads

[pale quartz]

logic behind the reason

core count

[proud trellis]

they are taking the piss aswell the open beta is 8-9th and its on a monday and tuesday, bruh i have school

ffs

[pale quartz]

early access is the 6th

[latent light]

If core count matters then why is there a 6600K lmfao

[pale quartz]

because it sold very well

no HT doesn't really factor into that

[latent light]

i7-4790 should be changed to minimum for Intel and i7-8700 should be added to recommended

[toxic vector]

so... ahh.. Is my CPU any good

[dry pike]

minimum is usually like 720p @ 30FPS or something like that 😄

[latent light]

i5-8400 has 6 cores, it should be a lot better than 6600K in battlefield

[toxic vector]

but my 1050ti is what I have

Oof

[plucky token]

time for: "can my pc run this game" questions

[toxic vector]

yeeep

spend 140 AUD and lets find out

[pale quartz]

there will be barely if any difference

neither have HT

margins of maybe 5% will still be a stutterfest

[storm osprey]

isnt that 4c4t vs 6c6t though?

[latent light]

^^^

Huge difference

[storm osprey]

bf traditionally likes cores

[pale quartz]

yeah, 2 cores, not that much difference as already said the standard is 8 threads

not 4 or 6

[latent light]

8400 is about 50-60% faster than 6600K in multithreading

Big difference there

4c4t isn't enough

[pale quartz]

to the average sure, that doesn't mean much when the minimum framerate and frame timings will be jumping all over the place

6t already is a stuttering mess for games and will be for 2042

[latent light]

This is why Intel before 10th gen was always a bad option unless you went for the i9 CPUs

[pale quartz]

^

[quick locust]

My 8700K was fine

[latent light]

People who bought i5-9600K over R5 3600 are feeling that remorse

[quick locust]

Yeah

[latent light]

Death Stranding can take advantage of up to 32 cores/64 threads lmao

[proud trellis]

the fuck

[verbal cliff]

rx 5700 xt with r5 3600 should be good for 2042

[storm osprey]

sure

When Xbox can play PS1/PS2 games before the PS5 lol

[hoary epoch]

helloooooo do you think my GTX 1650 S and my Ryzen 5 2600 will run the game on 60+ fps?

feel free to @ me if someone answers

[pale quartz]

nobody here will give you an answer because none of us know

[karmic pasture]

do yall think a 2060 can run the game well?

[rustic ibex]

@willow schooner eitherway i will upgrade my pc soon or just replace it

i need newer shit

my 1050 ti did run for a loooong time

[verbal cliff]

how did bfv run on your pc

atleast 60+?

[hoary epoch]

yeah

[supple bane]

did you upgrade from a 1050ti to a 1650 super?

[rustic ibex]

no?

why tf would i do that shit

im going all out lmao

[supple bane]

oh wait

[rustic ibex]

i got money for good

[supple bane]

i combined you and white rose into the same person.

i read these two messages thinking they were both from the same person

[pale quartz]

depends what you're asking

1080p? sure, 1440p? probably not, with DLSS? sure, with fsr? sure

[latent light]

Very reputable source thinking RDNA3 GPUs announced at CES 2023, not October 2022

[pale quartz]

there's a lot of variables at play here

[supple bane]

riddle me this. my g502 has (im not exaggerating when i say this) about 5 seconds of input lag in bfv. but my cheap amazon mouse is fine.

only happens in bfv

its got me lost ngl

[latent light]

Hardware is very complex

[storm osprey]

i know your problem

[supple bane]

get lost.

[proud trellis]

nyphon isnt based

[storm osprey]

you dont even know based

[proud trellis]

btw anyone know why i just heard like 2 or 3 random BEEPS on my pc

i will try and clip it and show you guys

[storm osprey]

i know your problem

[proud trellis]

i have heard these beeps before but i thought nothing of it but its happened like 3 times in the past week

ignore my friend speakin

[pale quartz]

uhh actually there is a logical reason

polling rates

the Amazon mouse has say a 5x lower polling rate than the g502 meaning it won't clog up the CPU stream

5x is arbitrary but same point applies

[supple bane]

considering i have been using this mouse in this game for like well over 1000 hours and have never seen this before i dont think its that

besides the mouse data flow is so minute compared to a cpu's ongoing tasks it wouldnt apply

[pale quartz]

it's not something you'll see because it impacts frame timings mostly but it's still there

what are you running?

[supple bane]

i will drop the polling rate to 250 and see if that helps but i doubt it.

as in? specs?

[pale quartz]

yeah

[supple bane]

2600 and 2070

[pale quartz]

and yeah it's definitely possible then

the game will spike CPU utilisation to a max throughput which the mouse depends on a certain core/thread being clear for constant polling consistency and boom it's why the delay is there

mostly it's micro-stuttering, but the lower cores = the worse the issue is

[supple bane]

like i said ive been using this combination for like 3 years.

if that was the case, it wouldn't just appear now

[pale quartz]

yeah CPU utilisation is, well, messy, especially with games

[molten coral]

Think I had the same last time I played BFV. Input lag and stuttering.

[supple bane]

also check temperatures, google says thats what that might be

[pale quartz]

it's random and variable not an issue that reoccurs consistently

[pale quartz]

is this from the OS?

[proud trellis]

no clue where its coming from

[pale quartz]

open windows volume manager and try to identify if it's from Windows or an external program, it'll flash up green for current audio activity

you might need to wait a bit to reproduce it

[proud trellis]

my temps are around 40 degreesC on idle

[proud trellis]

will do

[pale quartz]

@proud trellis actually do that aswell as checking event viewer if there's any immediate issues you'll see it there

[proud trellis]

how do i even get onto volume manager lol

[pale quartz]

right click the sound icon at the bottom right on the taskbar you'll see the option

[proud trellis]

i will just SS what i have on there

[pale quartz]

sure

[proud trellis]

i think its coming from my OS tbh

[pale quartz]

yeah so that's the volume manager you've got 2 main points here one is the system sounds panel which windows directs system sounds through and the other applications, you'll need to try and reproduce the sound with that open to identify if it's coming from Windows or not

it will light up green, you can test it yourself, change the volume

[proud trellis]

ahh yeah i see, i will try to catch it but it might be a while lol

i still think its my OS tbh, i think i have a weird OS install so i wouldnt put it past it

[pale quartz]

yeah it might be a while, open up event viewer for now, if there's any immediate problems you'll see it there

if not it's a waiting game to catch the sound

@proud trellis slight thought of note that event viewer contains some sensitive information DM me what it shows do not post it here

[supple bane]

i cant believe im saying this @pale quartz but you are right

running a lower polling rate fixes it.

that makes me so angy :(

[pale quartz]

yeah fun for CPU scaling for you

and well polling too

[supple bane]

im still not satisfied tho. its never done this before so why now

[pale quartz]

can be a lot of reasons I'd rather not write 4 paragraphs on processor prediction scaling however in simple(ish) terms it can be any combination of factors with the game active processes, on demand software thats spiking utilisation as well as with the game, core load or any number of potential other combinations @supple bane it's most common on lower core count CPUs simply down to lack of room for switching however it is a CPU agnostic issue in that it will occur on higher core systems, just in a not noticeable way

[quick locust]

Time for ps/2 mouse

[pale quartz]

micro-stuttering mainly, it's difficult to see

[quick locust]

Jk

[pale quartz]

10k polling mouse!

@supple bane polling is, well to say the least, tricky as the OS handles the pipeline for it, things can go wrong with other software being redirected a poll (mouse/key action) which the game was expecting

hence you get stuff like this, least it's fixed though

[supple bane]

im on w11 should i add

its not fixed tho because 250hz feels wonky

just feels slow, as it should

[proud trellis]

deco so i have just went to system on event manager and i have had these pop up, do you think this could be my issue ?

[pale quartz]

ehh yeah, that's just a casualty, 500 should be "alright"

if the default is 1000

[pale quartz]

it's possible do not post the contents here I'll assist with this separately in dms as there's sensitive contents that are contained with them, I'll be able to tell you if it is or isnt

[proud trellis]

okee

[quick locust]

I think mine is 1000? Idk

[pale quartz]

yeah 1000 is the default for most gaming mice

[quick locust]

Yeah

[pale quartz]

you'll see the stuttering issue mostly on 4c/8t systems however 6c/12t isn't immune, just depends on how software is demanding CPU resources at any one time

@proud trellis I'll help with this in around 30 minutes, for now take a screenshot of the first 6 warnings and DM them to me

[supple bane]

update to this. i rolled back to windows 10. the issue got worse after an hour or two. seems to be fine now on 10

although. i cant install origin because of MSVCP140.dll being "missing"

[pale quartz]

odd, 11 changed the scheduler queue Logitech probably don't have any drivers out yet for it

who knows

[latent light]

Too early to move to a brand new OS imo

Give it time to teeth

[pale quartz]

visual redistribution package just reinstall them

[supple bane]

and i would do this how?

[pale quartz]

[supple bane]

oh i got it.

another app installed them for me.

[pale quartz]

[supple bane]

welp not going to know if its ACTUALLY fixed for an hour

[cloud solar]

dont you love it when discord alone uses 20% of your cpu
