Hmmm . . . I would start with re-seating the block. And get a "good" thermal paste to replace what is there now. And as Hypnaustic mentioned, check if the sticker is still on.

#

Id did that once . . . sadlaugh

knotty crypt
#

artic silver is good

#

therrmal paste

honest bison
#

yep and yep

wintry prairie
#

Are your fans and rad clean?

honest bison
#

i will try and tighten the screws

honest bison
#

im scared of cleaning my pc

knotty crypt
#

cleaning is easy

#

air duster and wipes

wintry prairie
#

Blow some air throught the fans/rad

knotty crypt
#

just dont get liquid everywhere

wintry prairie
#

Not recommended but I use a shop vac in reverse to clean radfins and fans . . .

#

Vroooom

#

How lonng have you been running the h100i?

#

It seems to be running hotter than it should.

honest bison
#

maybe i need to change

wintry prairie
#

Have you ever cleaned the rad fins/fans?

honest bison
#

but i would want a 360mm

#

and that means a new case

#

ughhhhh

honest bison
wintry prairie
#

Cleaning them would probably help. If you have the means/time/desire, go with a 360. Which case do you have? Meshify C?

knotty crypt
#

have u also tried turning up the rpm on ur fans?

wintry prairie
#

Those should be able to fit a 360 in the front

honest bison
honest bison
#

its too cramped

#

can barely close the back pannel

wintry prairie
#

You "could" mount it on the exterior.

honest bison
#

like barely

honest bison
wintry prairie
#

LOL, ok

#

I have two thick rads at the top of my case.

honest bison
#

i wish i could get a bigger case

#

whatever

#

had to buy battlefield :D

wintry prairie
#

No worries, you should be fine with what you have. Those temps are OK. Not optimal, but OK.

If it were me, I would get some compressed air and clean out the fins and fans. And I would re-seat the CPU block from the AIO.

honest bison
#

might do that

wintry prairie
#

What are your idle temps?

honest bison
wintry prairie
#

That's fine. Do the other stuff and you'll be set.

wintry prairie
#

๐Ÿ‘

honest bison
wintry prairie
#

Nope. You shouldn't have to.

#

Where did you mount the rad?

#

Top, right?

honest bison
#

I feel like it would be easier

wintry prairie
#

Perfect

#

After you clean/reseat, let me know your in game temps. They should get better. ๐Ÿ™‚

honest bison
#

I dont like touching my pc

knotty crypt
#

dont be

#

its like legos

honest bison
#

Feels like it will break

honest bison
knotty crypt
#

i got more legos then my pc lol

#

pc price*

wintry prairie
#

Honestly, what you need to do is very simple, don't be nervous. There is almost ZERO chance of you messing anything up.

Just grab a can of compr4essed air, and push down.

Tada!

honest bison
#

more scared on the aio part xD

#

removing the paste

knotty crypt
#

its easy

wintry prairie
#

All you need is rubbing alcohol and a paper towel. Then finish wiping it with lint free cloth. Seriosly, no wworries.

knotty crypt
#

unscrew, get some rubbing alcohal and paper towel

#

lol

wintry prairie
#

๐Ÿ˜„

knotty crypt
#

u can use cotton swobs get get 100% of it as well

wintry prairie
#

The first time, I see you could be nervous. After you do it once, it'll be the easiest thing you've ever done.

honest bison
#

i will do it this weekend

#

I want to compare temps on bf2042

#

before and after

wintry prairie
#

NO, do it NOW.

Don't wait another week.

knotty crypt
#

^^^^^^^

honest bison
knotty crypt
#

you can do it

wintry prairie
#

You'll thank me later

honest bison
#

i gotta sleep lmao

#

But i will

#

on sunday...

wintry prairie
#

OK, in 8ish hours, I want to see a post with you working on it

#

Do it before BETA

honest bison
#

i want my pc functional for beta

honest bison
#

if i fuck something up at least make it happen after the beta

knotty crypt
#

do it NOW

honest bison
#

i canttt

#

xD

#

mentally

#

and phisically

wintry prairie
#

No worries. Good luck! I had a bunch of stuff to work on my computer and I wanted to have it ready for beta. I should be good to go now.

๐Ÿ™‚

honest bison
#

Thats good

#

im hoping to get good fps

#

3440p x 1440p isnt easy to run

lofty light
#

Depends on your card BlobFingers

#

I need to get a refill kit for my GPU AIO

#

Had it off since I bought the card as a made a mistake when swapping the rad over and it's pretty much empty

wintry prairie
#

?

AIO coolers are made so you don't have to refill them. They are supposed to be closed loop.

lofty light
#

I got one of those ones that lets you quick connect

#

So like semi modular I guess?

wintry prairie
#

Oh nice, which one?

lofty light
#

The alphacool eiswolf

#

Bought it with a 120 rad then got a 360 separately

Do it!

Also just increased my llc for stability

#

Just had bsod while in bfv lol

wintry prairie

Gotcha! BFV has been alright for me.

quick locust
#

Yeah same

#

Just my oc being a bit unstable before

wintry prairie
#

Ready for beta?

lament flare
#

In this case I need to upgrade from Home to Pro edition (with COA key). Should I need install media creation tool for upgrade or just put serial number in this option?

wintry prairie

Serial usually. It should tell you once you try.

Read the reqs

yeah well i saw the reqs but i had everything good except the graphic card so i was worried

I wuldn't be worried

i suggest getting a 3090

like bruh

fallen harbor
#

official requirements are bs anyway

willow haven
#

need a nasa pc to run bf2042 ๐Ÿ’€๐Ÿ’€

thin iron
#

Not really

#

Dice optimize pretty well Bf

#

Of course if u want +100fps 2K and ultra graphics u need a high tier computer

fallen harbor
#

yes you need a ryzen 9 9999x and a 4090ti to reach 30fps on 720p

#

we are all doomed nobody will be able to play bf2042

thin iron
#

hahaha

fallen harbor
#

if any of you have a 3000 or 2000 series just throw it away

#

they are obsolete

thin iron
#

this is just a demo

#

its a prank

fallen harbor
#

i hate being sarcastic but seeing so much people asking if their mid-high end pcs will run the game at all gets to my nerves

#

I cant control myself

weak girder
fallen harbor
#

and to make it worse, the official reqs are full of nonsense just like always

#

idk why every single company presents such nonsensical req specs

#

in what world can you say โ€œoh you know a 3600 or a 6400 are about as good to beginโ€

#

do the people presenting the specs know anything at all

Do we know if there will be controller support on pc for the beta?

ok thanks

Today we're checking out one of the smallest Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 graphics cards on the market, and also one of the most in-stock versions. This tiny GPU is smaller and louder than it's competitors, so should you buy one? (If you can find one)

ainโ€™t a 3060ti like CAD$500

#

hey just wondering for anyone who preordered how do i get access to the early access beta for ps4

weak cipher
#

does anyone know why the 2042 website recommends the ryzen 7 2700x over the ryzen 5 3600?

midnight crypt
#

The only reason i can see why they would is that the 2700x has more cores and threads

#

Otherwise theyre very similar in performance

limpid vapor
#

Are xeons good or worth it rn? Idc about upgradability

opaque saddle
#

Lower end Xeon for gaming isnโ€™t an ideal option. I will pick something like i5 10400F if you want budget gaming experience

#

As a current Xeon user, I would say the E3 v2 or before delivered excellent value but no longer. It isnโ€™t worth getting a new or an old one

bro i used a xeon e5

#

yo can someone plz explain how the min spec ryzen 5 3600 is a min when the recommended is ryzen 7 2700x a cpu thats honestly pretty similar in performance??

#

i mean its better but 2 cores 4 threads like wdf

amber minnow
#

You guys think i5 3450 is able to run this game? stare

clear widget
#

whats your gpu

amber minnow
clear widget
#

its gonna be rough my guy

#

but if you can overclock to 4ghz you can

amber minnow
clear widget
#

ya that sounds well below min specs

amber minnow
#

PensiveFish Lie to me and tell me its gonna be ok

clear widget
#

i mean "run" idk what you mean by run

#

if you mean can i play the game at a decent fps no

#

can you scrape by at 20 fps maybe

amber minnow
#

1080p low settings >40fps

clear widget
#

no

amber minnow
clear widget
#

if anything low settings might hurt you even more

#

cause gtx970 is a higher level gpu than your cpu is

#

it probably wont hurt but lowering settings probably wont help either

amber minnow
#

Lord have mercy

clear widget
#

ya that cpu is godshit ripperonies

#

like i said id squeeze the life out of it

#

if you have a (K) varient overclock the crap out of it

#

or if your non(k) and your good you can multiply base clock

amber minnow
#

It'll probably be the last game it ever runs

clear widget
#

good

amber minnow
#

It'll die in the attempt

clear widget
#

if you plan on getting a new cpu anything what do you have to lose

amber minnow
#

When a tornado spawns, rip

clear widget
#

i run 5.2ghz daily on my 9700k

#

and it hasnt lost 10mhz

#

no performance degradation at all

amber minnow
#

Nice

#

All I ask is to be able to play this game decently

#

Im in the hands of the lord now

clear widget
#

if you can upgrade the cpu you might hit your 40fps mark

weak cipher
#

im running a rtx 3070 with a ryzen 5 3600, do you think i hit the recommended?

#

and are these specs only for the beta?

clear widget
weak cipher
#

Thanks

clear widget
#

i dont think requirements usually change

#

3600 might be running high usage but you should be good

weak cipher
#

why does it recommend high performance parts now?

#

the graphics, size of maps, player counts?

clear widget
#

cause its a "next gen" game

#

all of those thing

#

older games limited their potential based on old console specs

#

now they are giving the old consoles the middle finger

weak cipher
#

cause it makes me feel like i just hit the standard

clear widget
#

dont worry you didnt

#

you might wanna eventually move on from the 3600 because i think PC games will be high cpu usage

#

especially these new ones

#

but for 3070 is obviously a high end card

weak cipher
#

I switched from ps4 to pc back in February, what would you consider to be better to upgrade to cpu wise in the future

#

I dont care if its intel or amd

clear widget
#

at this point id be waiting for next gen

#

is your Mobo really good?

weak cipher
#

not really lol

clear widget
#

in that case youll need a new mobo with a new cpu

#

cause it most likely wont support

weak cipher
#

the only good thing I have is the 3070

#

I dont even think i can over clock on it right now

#

the cpu

clear widget
#

out of the current family of ryzen processors 5800x

#

see if your cpu supports 5800x

#

if it does you would be in luck

weak cipher
#

I think I will just wait for next gen

clear widget
#

might need a bios flash

weak cipher
#

do you have an idea when they might come out? I think intel just did right?

clear widget
#

ya intels one just dropped

#

idk if id go intel right now

weak cipher
#

why is that?

#

Sorry about all the questions, im still new to all this

clear widget
#

honestly i havent made my mind up on them actually

#

i still need to do my research

#

they might be great

#

i know the 10900k had issues

#

there were pushing a crazy amount of wattage through the sucker

#

im not sure if they changed the dye on the new gen

weak cipher
#

dye?

clear widget
#

like the cpu platform

#

die i mean

#

they were suppose to lower the size of the die

weak cipher
#

i see

clear widget
#

ya id recommend doing your research on the new intels

weak cipher
#

yea for sure

clear widget
#

your gonna switch to new cpus you can freely chose between intel or amd cause your getting a new mobo either way

weak cipher
#

I thought I was gonna be set for like 3 years but it sounds like thats not the case anymore

clear widget
#

well first wait and see how 2042 goes

#

its just that with a 3070 im assuming you will be pushing your 3600 to the brim

#

what resolution again?

weak cipher
#

1080

#

I need to upgrade the monitor to lol

clear widget
#

ya so 1080 can be hard on cpu

weak cipher
#

its at 75hz

clear widget
#

my guy thats the first thing i would do

#

i wouldnt be afraid of going to 1440p either

#

cause 1440p 144hz monitors are cheap right now

weak cipher
#

lol

clear widget
#

and 1440p will put more load on your gpu and less on cpu

weak cipher
#

I think I bought everything at a rush

clear widget
#

since your cpu bound thats a good thing

weak cipher
#

I got lucky when i got my 3070 cause i got it at msrp at bestbuy when they did a drop

what year?

in reality tho its a symmetrical 4wd perfect for the snow

so the year im actually still debating

the hope was 2021 because its a reworked design

luckily the engine can literally tank it like a champ

its been doing so lol

usually its coolant leaks

thats what i think it is, I just have to clean teh engine bay cause last time there was a leak, it was due to old pipes

clear widget

my dad had an old accord and it overheated like shit as well

weak cipher
#

once i clean it, i should be able to find where the leaks are

clear widget
#

yup

#

did you notice coolent levels drop?

weak cipher
#

sometimes they did which means that it could be a bad gasket?

#

ngl, I also push it to its limits sometimes

its still probably cooling system problems

they are meant for abuse

how risky is that?

very little risk if you take a car with body damage

We do but it is like 24km away from here

weak cipher
#

transportation up here sucks compared to the rest of the world

lofty light
#

We only just started getting Costco's in Perth

weak cipher
#

have you been in it?

lofty light
#

Nope

opaque saddle
#

It is only good for family thoโ€ฆ

lofty light
#

My parents buy turkey bacon from it and that's about it

weak cipher
#

cause they always have different menus for different countries lol

opaque saddle
#

I would rather go to Aldi with less than 3 people in the household

#

โ€œBuy what you needโ€

lofty light
#

Ooooooh we're getting an Aldi down here

#

Finally

weak cipher
#

is it better?

lofty light
#

Although I'd prefer the wonders of the Spud Shed

clear widget
#

man aldi use to be good

#

idk their prices arent that far off from other stores now

weak cipher
#

what? I dont think ive seen one

opaque saddle
#

Coz I used to catch a bus to Aldi and cost me $2 per trip. Cars arenโ€™t affording due to city parking

clear widget
#

and their off brand stuff sucks

opaque saddle
#

Turns out I got an e scooter

#

Btwโ€ฆ

#

Coz it isnโ€™t really a tech talk lol

weak cipher
#

cars also have gone up due to the shortages of stuff

lofty light
#

Oh I thought this was ngl

clear widget
#

e scooters are tech

weak cipher
#

about cpus and stuff

#

lmao

opaque saddle
#

I tried to make it more like a tech talk

#

But I canโ€™t as a mod LUL

clear widget
#

i might run into issues myself my cpu

weak cipher
#

what you got?

clear widget
#

cause my 9700k was already running into problems on warzone

#

3080 is making too many frames

#

9700k is a beefy cpu but it lacks the hyperthreading

opaque saddle
#

FPS limit

clear widget
#

and threads in general

opaque saddle
#

Limit it to 144 or monitor refresh rates

weak cipher
#

So i think ima look for a new monitor first then upgrade cpu and mobo when next gen comes out

clear widget
#

ya the problem is i was skipping around that 130-150 fps mark

#

so i cant really limit frames unless i limit to 120

#

well the fps was average 150 but lower limits were 120

#

max settings 1440p

opaque saddle
#

Do you have free sync or g sync monitor?

clear widget
#

g sync

#

its not an issue in warzone

#

but its pushing my cpu to its limits even at 5.2ghz

#

which is not an issue in that game but if im seeing symptoms it makes me worrie about 2042

#

2700x the recommended cpu has lots of threads

#

if this game utilized threads well im doomed

opaque saddle
#

I would rather get a processor that has more cores over threads

#

Coz threads are pretty much like placeholders, it works if it works

clear widget
#

id agree with you but not when it comes to next gen games

#

at least not yet

#

till we see how it runs

#

sometimes games will be 4 cores heavy leave the other 4 lower load and utilize all the threads

#

thats not common right now but it could be possible with new games

opaque saddle
#

I wouldnโ€™t worry about the future yet

#

You would more likely use newer processors when it does

clear widget
#

i was also thinking of maybe selling 9700k for the 9900k but id be giving up the golden bin

#

my 9700 can hit 5.3ghz at 1.44v

opaque saddle
#

I donโ€™t see a point getting a 9900k

#

Coz your current build is good. Or you should be getting newer processors (not 11th gen) if you really want to spend your money on upgrades

honest bison
#

wait for 12th gen and ddr5

Guys guys need help

Hello , I put for mistake my PC to sleep, so i turned it off when he was to sleep , now i tried to turn on the PC and windows is gone on my ssd, i can enter the troubleshooting only with the hard disk, but i tried to recovery and is not working. What i have to do i don't know because I can't believe that only because i turn it off while it was in sleep mode this happen

honest bison
#

clean install

junior tree
#

Ok so i get s USB stick and do a clean install

#

,??

honest bison
#

Yeap

#

from BIOS

prime jasper
honest bison
#

if recovery isnt working

junior tree
#

The ssd is not booting

prime jasper
honest bison
#

Wait is the ssd showing up on BIOS?

junior tree
#

There was no windows on the harddisk

honest bison
prime jasper
junior tree
#

In the bios the ssd is listed but i can not use it for booting

honest bison
#

why not?

junior tree
#

Yeah

prime jasper
junior tree
#

I bring me back too the bios every time

prime jasper
#

by ghost i mean, its listed but not actually connected

junior tree
#

Ok so i remove the ssd and plug again

honest bison
#

maybe

prime jasper
prime jasper
junior tree
#

If i disconnect the hard disk i love the file in it

#

I want to remove it

prime jasper
junior tree
#

Ior i already lost the fail

#

File

prime jasper
#

you can disconnect the hard drive even if it has files

#

it wont negatively change anything

woeful sapphire
#

mf out here thinking their ssd is ram

frail garden
#

made sure of the boot order?

junior tree
#

What is booting

#

Ok so now i will re connect the hard disk

prime jasper
junior tree
#

Bro. Wait a sec

#

Without the hard disk it is booting normally

#

But with the hard disk i get the same problem

woeful sapphire
#

just cheesing

#

ramdisk does lose its data when powered off

#

volatile vs non-volatile memory

junior tree
#

Bro i wanted to know If i loser the data because of this problem

#

I know the difference between ram and rom

woeful sapphire
#

ok, chad

#

windows wouldnt yeet itself

#

your boot order might have changed

junior tree
#

I try to use the correct boot oreder

#

I'm not stupid or a boomer

#

When i connect the harddisk it is not showing the ssd for booting

woeful sapphire
#

๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ ssd might have died

#

what brand?

junior tree
#

It booted like 5 minutes ago

#

Western digital

woeful sapphire
#

if its all plugged in and your mb doesnt recognize it its probably dead

#

try sticking the windows usb installer in, maybe its corrupt

#

if windoze tried to update and got yoinked in the middle it could cause disk format issues

junior tree
#

I don't know bro

#

Now is not working again

honest bison
#

just reinstall windows

junior tree
#

And so why it booted into to windows when i unplugged and re plugged the ssd

#

What is the problem

woeful sapphire
#

sata cable maybe bork?

#

you're gonna have to try a bunch of things, we arent there bud

#

ssd is bork, cable is bork, mb is bork, or windows is bork

junior tree
#

I don't think cable is bork

#

I can try to put the cable from harddisk in the ssd

#

Mb is not bork

woeful sapphire
#

might be pebkac

junior tree
#

I tried nope it is not working

#

Now that last thing is windows

#

So i don't have a windows USB right now

#

But can u tell me what i have to do once i have one

#

I go in to bios select boot options the USB stick

#

Than the windows installer is gonna format the ssd right and install in it?

#

nope. turns out it was 21.9 and i just typed it wrong

#

so how do I fix this?

dry pike
#

If anyone uses MSI Afterburner it is recommended you install the new version 4.6.4 Beta 4 as that supports the DX12 Agility SDK which Battlefield 2042 utilizes.

dry pike
plucky dome
#

wait my product is a legacy support model now

#

guess i cant play

dry pike
#

Then I assume it's outside the minimum system requirements too. That's usually how it goes.

#

There might be a workaround for the driver check if you want to try that but for that I would ask on Answers HQ.

plucky dome
#

where is that?

dry pike
#

RTSS is included in Afterburner as far as I'm aware.

#

that's what their release notes say

#

MSI Afterburner 4.6.4 (Beta)
"RivaTuner Statistics Server has been upgraded to v7.3.2 beta 5" so yes should be all good just

it was an article written by tom henderson. some content creators told him the game runs bad and a 3080 user said they had to drop down to like medium settings or something to get 120 fps in 1440p

if youre in 1080p you should be fine

but i mean, 3080. this game has no excuse to run so poorly while not even looking better than bfv

hopefully its just a early access thing and not an issue through the whole beta or game release

honest bison

@wintry prairie Are you able to open MSI afterburner on the loading screen of bf2042?

I hope it will get better , I mean I can run bfv with over 200 fps at times with low settings of course

Do someone found any method to avoid the stupid GPU driver verification? AMD stopped giving new drivers to old GPU (I have a R9 390x which let me play any BF without any problem at +100fps on low/med so I doubt I would have any problem in this one)

But you can go to origin, preorder with paypal or you credit card and the won't charge you until the the launch day. So you can preorder it get the early access and cancel your order in two days and buy it in a allkeyshop cheaper (what I was going to do and 2 of my friends, now we are not even going to play it lol)
