[solid maple]

to install windows 10 to a windows 11 all i just need to do is download the windows media creation tool right?

and then install it?

[quick locust]

Which cable

[coral dust]

So does this game run better on windows 11 than windows 10?

[merry wagon]

Idk if windows 11 has gotten its optimization update yet

[lunar dawn]

basically the same

unless you have a 12th gen intel

wich runs better on win11

[valid locust]

Windows 11 with VBS off is barely any faster, like 1-3%, EXCEPT for storage read, that has like 20%+ for some reason

[thorny bridge]

Used windows 11

[silent plaza]

i can take 11600k now with black Friday

or

i can wait for 3 months maybe more

and take 12600k

11600k=1
12600k=2

[hearty roost]

If you take 12600k you need a new mainboard

if you need aswell for an 11600k a new mainboard, than go for Ryzen instead and join the masterrace

[silent plaza]

i have to get a new board and cooler for both

[silent plaza]

11600k is better than r5600x right ?

and cheaper

[hearty roost]

Only in games where raw single core power is needed

And cheaper for in my country around 20€ depending on where you want to buy it

Mostly the r5 5600x is better. And if there is a game where the intel core is better there just a few fps between them

and for proof https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-B2dS57rl_8

the only thing where intel is better than the amd in power usage.

[green ginkgo]

is dx12 not enabled by default in bf2042

[hearty roost]

bf2042 has only dx12

its a placebo to change this setting

[atomic latch]

I just discovered that deleting the BF2042 Documents folder (both normal and Open Beta folders) actually somewhat improved performance, at least on my end. No significant increase in FPS but it is much smoother now.

[atomic scroll]

@prisma anvil after f ing about with the ram cl 19 @ 3000 is max stable

but afer some youtube watching i uped the grafics settings and my fps inproved about 10 fps

to about 85 to 120

but its mostluy abbout 90to 95

[rancid haven]

Just wanna give a shout out to ea/dice for making my pc unusable until my gpu is repaired

[vocal saffron]

this warship waiting screen simulator is the fucking bomb!

[latent light]

@silent plaza

5600X faster than 11600K in most cases, also uses a lot less electricity and generates less heat

11600K even loses to the 10600K in some cases

Best value CPU will probably be when the i5-12400 comes out, will have 5600X performance for under $200

[hearty roost]

But when this happens Ryzen 6000 could be announced already

And than the prices for I guess nearly any Ryzen drop huge.

[teal mesa]

Im getting a direct x12 error and literally cannot q the game up

its almost like i got a game that i cannot play

[green ginkgo]

thats on you if you have an old pc

[teal mesa]

me?

[atomic latch]

What's your specs?

[teal mesa]

17-9700k, 2080 super, 16 gig 3200 ram, 1tb ssd, 2 tb hardrive

[fickle torrent]

hey guys anyone know how i can add my ps5 friend? we both have crossplay on but its not letting me search for his name, says no results

[teal mesa]

says soemthing to do with driver but ive deleted and re installed numerous times and still nothing

[green ginkgo]

ok well lets wait for optimization updates

[atomic latch]

Try this: https://help.ea.com/en/help/faq/clear-cache-to-fix-problems-with-your-games/

[hearty roost]

DX12 errors is an Windows issue aswell.

[teal mesa]

thats what im getting^^

[pale quartz]

ryzen 6000 is zen3D, that will not be coming out till Q1 2022

Zen 4 is not launching till the end of 2022

[teal mesa]

i tried this and still nothing. im starting to think its a battlefield issue

[atomic latch]

Try repairing your game install. If it still doesn't work, then yeah it's a battlefield issue. It's weird though, since your 2080 super should be recognized by the game

[teal mesa]

so i tried drivers delete and re install, game re install, cache, 2 ea accounts and nothing

[latent light]

We talk tech rumors here sir

4GB only?

[latent light]

64-bit memory bus as well lol

6500XT could be both 8/4GB options

[atomic latch]

6500XT 8GB could be interesting. The next RX 580 if done right. But then again the RX 6600 was honestly underwhelming so idk what they can do with a 6500XT

[latent light]

There was an early testing sample of the RX 6800 with only 8GB lol

Also heard about samples of 6900XT with 32GB

These will never exist for consumers

[coarse nimbus]

4gb? why would that still be a thing

[latent light]

At least it wouldn't be good for mining unlike RX 6600

RTX 3050 Ti has also been shown with only 4GB memory

[pale quartz]

these things will be clock processing machines.. meaning they'll punch way above their weight even if 4GB is woefully inadequate

[latent light]

4GB is good for playing modern titles on low-medium settings, which is probably what you're going to be doing anyway to get highest fps

[pale quartz]

modern titles? Minecraft perhaps lmao

[latent light]

You can't play 2042 at ultra settings 1080p if GPU only has 4GB

Under 10 fps for 1650 Super lmao

[pale quartz]

what do you mean can't run?! my 1050ti cost $300 and can't run 2042?! bad DICE awful optimisation!!

[coarse nimbus]

gamer be like "do i need ultra on everything?? yes"

[uneven current]

Console players be like "there's a choice?"

I'm suprised the game is that well optimized /bad looking tbh

My gpu is more than 3 years old and still runs it Max settings at 4k perfectly fine

Kinda suprised they used last gen tech instead of going next gen

But also not suprised cause current gpu market

[latent light]

Buddy of mine still has a GTX 1080Ti for 4K

[uneven current]

Yeah my 2080ti is maybe 20% faster, it's totally fine outside msfs2020

[pale quartz]

they didn't use "last gen tech", the frostbite engine was upgraded specifically for newer hardware

just because it runs well on older hardware =/= DICE magically using last gen stuff

[gaunt briar]

hi guys best pc $500 budget

[latent light]

Console

[uneven current]

What I mean with last gen stuff is, it's not a graphical master piece and step far from the last battlefield @pale quartz

It's close to same

[latent light]

$500 PC wont be for gaming especially with market situation

[gaunt briar]

good answer

[uneven current]

Used enterprise hardware with broken gpu fixed in oven

[pale quartz]

the graphics of the game are quite stunning idk what you're saying

[uneven current]

Maybe my game is bugged then

[gaunt briar]

if i bought a $500 gaming pc its probably a scam

[uneven current]

After 100m Noone has animations

[uneven current]

Do you see the 14 year difference?

[pale quartz]

yes..?

I played crisis on the older consoles lol

that's not even a close comparison whatsoever

[uneven current]

Tf

The buildings in ur scree shot look like gta San Andreas buildings with vignette

[pale quartz]

idk if you didn't look at your own screenshot but lighting and shadow detail in crysis doesn't exist whatsoever with texture models being a totally warped ass mess

saying they're even remotely close is kind of a joke

[heady peak]

guys has anyone got a dualsense working on pc yet, when i turn it on my character just looks at the floor

[pale quartz]

dualsense does not work with origin

[uneven current]

I don't say crisis looks better, just that it doesn't look like it's 14 years better

I'm saying battlefield 2042 doesn't look like a big step better than bf1 did back then compared to the titles before, hell even bf5 currently looks a lot better in many situations than battlefield 2042

[pale quartz]

you need to use steam

[pale quartz]

you realise you're looking at a compressed screenshot right?

tbh it sounds like you've barely even touched the game to say that lmao

[uneven current]

You realize I'm playing 4k maxed with no dlss and still complain?

And have 60h in it + 20h beta?

[midnight crypt]

You cant do much better with photogrametry

[heady peak]

@pale quartz i got it working on apex with an application called duelsensex it emulates a ps4 controller and works perfect then i go on battlefield and my guy likes his feet

[midnight crypt]

Texture wise

[pale quartz]

DSX is a third party intermediary 2042 does not support it via origin, it will only work on steam

[heady peak]

so i put the game on steam, then plug it in

[pale quartz]

no

you will need to have the game physically installed on steam

controller support had never been supported by origin

[wise remnant]

logitech mx-master anybody use that one? i can't use my side buttons when i want to bind them

[heady peak]

well ive already got the game on origin

so that isnt good

[pale quartz]

yes, and origin doesn't support controller, so there isn't much you can do other than that

[uneven current]

wouldnt smth like xpadder/rewasd work?

[pale quartz]

nothing is guaranteed to work

[uneven current]

worst case you emulate mouse n keyboard with rewasd

[pale quartz]

steam has only ever been the platform to guarantee controller support

[delicate reef]

Uplay and fc6 works well, haptic too

[pale quartz]

I actually haven't tried fc6 with controller heard it works well though

[delicate reef]

Yeah the triggers and the different weights that you can feel with different guns is cool

[pale quartz]

[uneven current]

@pale quartz https://i.imgur.com/QaQiMAl.jpg thats what it looks like for me 😦

heap of shit this is

[lost schooner]

Does the game still have framerate issues? I'm at low settings and took steps from a video I found to reduce framerate problems, but I still lag and rubberband. Had no issues at all with the beta.

[hearty roost]

Yes. Until you have seen a new Nvidia Driver. Rubberbanding and bad ping is a overflowing server issue compared with some gadgets. But Ping issues your own problem.

[left musk]

@hearty roost only nvidia ?

[hearty roost]

Yep only Nvidia. AMD has a working driver and it does his job

[novel dew]

Force DX12

[midnight crypt]

the game is dx12 only

[novel dew]

not by default, in the settings_profile its set to 0

[midnight crypt]

it doesnt matter

the game is built on dx12

it only has one api

[novel dew]

oh word

well whatever, I'll leave it on

[quartz kindle]

keep getting a direct x error since yesterdau any fix?

[midnight crypt]

try a fresh install of your gpu drivers

[fallow pewter]

why does it say it has been running for that long ? 5 days 9 hours 9 mins 21 secs

[midnight crypt]

because you havent turned your pc off for 5 days

[fallow pewter]

i did lol

last time it ran overnight was when pre-load came out

[midnight crypt]

are you sure you didnt put it in sleep mode

[fallow pewter]

yes, 100% shutdown

i just restarted it now its the right time thanks tho

i got 1 more question though

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/402835360004177930/911759333564493854/unknown.png

this my RAM tab, and the thing i circled translates in english to "Assured", why does it say 29GB when i only got 16GB RAM ?

@ me if anyone knows, thx

[thorny halo]

so.. what the hell is the point of the heavy suppressor? it has the same effects as the others, but you lose 10 dmg! others are -5 dmg. what is this new devilry?

i've always been a fan of suppressors but i feel like this game just takes a huge dump on those things

[verbal cliff]

I just put an suppressor on my mp28

Every other gun sucks with one on

[prime jasper]

Crash and force restart on launch. I have installed all the visual libraries, directx, disabled nvida overlay, repaired origin, actually did a complete factory restore, and still does it...
I was able to play a little in the beta but it started doing it there too.
As you can imagine I am a little angry about it. I don't have time to mess around for hours trying to fix. anyone else have this problem?
It started by saying "setup messed up try reinstalling" now it goes passed that and I even got to connecting to online services, but now it crashes right after the easycheat bar fills (again). I repair now and it says complete, whereas before I would get the aforementioned error message

[hearty roost]

Windows fast start. PC does not get fully out with it.

[hearty roost]

Means a virtual cache. Like if the PC has any important data that windows dont want to lose

[pale quartz]

you are confusing yourself, you have 2 types of memory, main memory, and what's called shared allocated resources - without delving into 3 paragraphs about how graphical engines such as OpenGL and D3D handle transit buffer requests, what this doing is reserving a certain allocation of storage as ZRAM from your I/O device (in GB), aka 13GB of storage which is used by the OS for handling swapping requests e.g. superfetch and what not which rely on JIT data access to be responsive, it's nothing to be worried about, it's also why the English term for this is "committed", or "shared", because the I/O reserved storage is shared amongst multiple pieces of hardware for usage depending on what's required and cannot be used for actually storing files

[prime jasper]

Does anyone have the issue that they are getting literally 1-3 FPS in the Game Menu and in Game?
I have a RTX 2080

[cloud mango]

Yo can someone help me out. My game has really low frames in menu anyone know why?

[honest bison]

welp no 500 bucks pc will be good for today's games. So it might be a "gaming pc" but a very old crappy one, which means you probably scammed yourself

@supple bane Wonder what my VRM temp will be with the new cooler My VRM temps haven't been that good with the AIO, pretty much limiting OC capabilities for me

but can play othershit

[stiff nimbus]

On pc I keep getting that yellow symbol and eveything runs so slow it’s like the matrix, is there any solution for this as this only happens in the 128 players main game mode

And when I play hazard zone or whatever eveything runs really smooth

[rotund crescent]

get better internet?

[stiff nimbus]

I already have fast internet

[rotund crescent]

a better pc?

[stiff nimbus]

My pc is fine I have rtx 3070 i7 11th gen 16gb ram

[rotund crescent]

ram is a little low. perhaps your internet isnt as good as you thought it was?

[stiff nimbus]

This game is good when it works but most of the time performance just kills everything

[rotund crescent]

im getting good performance. i just feel like the poeple with issues are playing with borderline pcs or shit internet

[stiff nimbus]

I’ll just have to wait for patches I guess

[marsh gull]

yeah im really happy cause my build with it turned out awesome

[marsh gull]

honestly rn id say its a decent deal

[hearty roost]

Windows 11 > Windows 10. After the AMD fix its better.

[marsh gull]

i prefer using windows 10 tbh i tried both

[prisma anvil]

I prefer win11 cause I see about a minor score increase in my benchmarks.

Consistently.

[pale badger]

CPU usage is really high in 2042. And it's using all cores. I'm happy for that (as it's been an issue in many games, using only 1 core), but when all are used my CPU boost clock only goes to 4.3 instead of 4.7 or 5.0 or whatever I've configured 😦

[prisma anvil]

Did you unlock the power limit in the bios?

[pale badger]

Bumping the all-cores-clock.. feels like it's gonna run hot as the devil?

[prisma anvil]

Long duration power limits. Etc.

[pale badger]

Can't remember what settings I'm running atm, haven't touched those things in a while. But should maybe take a look

Whats long duration power limit?

[prisma anvil]

So your cpu can draw as much power as it can.

Or it will only draw like intel stock powerlimit after 56s

[pale badger]

Oh, didn't know about that one

[prisma anvil]

What's ur cpu?

[pale badger]

i7 8700k

[prisma anvil]

Yeah unlock the power limit.

[pale badger]

Feels like I got it yesterday but.. damn.. it's like 4 years ago now.

[prisma anvil]

Then set a vcore voltage, load line caliberation, core clock ratio and ring clock ratio

From the 3 8700k I see they hit about 4.7-5ghz all core. Voltage ur safe up to 1.4v just make sure ur temp are in check.

[pale badger]

4.7ghz all core sounds sweet

hm, maybe I haven't even overclocked this CPU at all when I think about it. Maybe I'm thinking of my ol' i5 2500k. That thing was a beast.

But I'm gonna look into it, thx for the knowledgesharing @prisma anvil 🙂

[regal pagoda]

Is there gonna be any improvement concerning the RTAO or any other sort of ray tracing ? Because right now RTAO is absolutely pointless, and consumes 35 fps average

[pale quartz]

this is an entirely normal procedure

all core turbo clocks are significantly less than single core, in order to increase it you will need to reduce the thermal temperature of your processor (boosts are based on temperatures)

[pale quartz]

performance improvements probably not RTAO is naturally very demanding on the GPU and that cannot be changed, if you don't want it simply leave it disabled

[lunar dawn]

did you unlock power limit in bios and also are you using and all core overclock or single core

[buoyant jewel]

Hi everyone! how to fix cpu frametime? I have 5800x 6900xt with 3600gb cl16 ram. Gpu renders 150-200 fps with 4-8ms, while cpu bottlenicking with 60-110fps with 15-30ms with HUGE drops (cpu usage is about 45%, while gpu is 70%). I have already turned on dx12, disabled all overlays but it seems nothing can help. Can I do something to make it run better or the problem is about optimization of this pathetic game on dev side

[prisma anvil]

Prob game optimization. Try update mobo bios, turn on pbo2, get amd new chipset driver. See if it might help.

[glass iris]

oh no i see people with ryzen 5600 bottlenecks a 3070 and i have a 3600x with a 3070 will the bottleneck be super high or will i get around the same fps around 120 on 1440p high

i know that one way to get better fps is to make the rez higher since then the system depends on gpu more than cpu

[buoyant jewel]

just did it today, nothing had changed..

[glass iris]

and any thoughts on when they will fix the cpu bottleneck problem soon or u guys think it needs around 3months or so

[buoyant jewel]

Im playing on 2k (tried all settings from low to ultra), nothing changes for me

[prisma anvil]

Prob game then. Ur ram is decently fast as well.

[buoyant jewel]

Yeha, Ive upgraded from 3200 cl16 ballistix to 3600 cl16 gskills this summer

[glass iris]

u would get probably 180/250 if gpu was on 100% but the bottleneck on this game is insane from how bad cpus are utilized xd and i thought these stutters are rare so cant u deal with it since its super short and then it goes back to normal or it happens alot 4 u?

[prisma anvil]

If u got bdie then u can go ham on the oc. Maybe 3600 cl14 or 3733 or 3800 cl14-16 with slight infinity fabric oc

[glass iris]

hopefully they fix optimization and make it so a 1050 can run it on 1080p low

[marsh gull]

i mean its below the minumum spec after all

[glass iris]

yeah but optimization can lower the specs needed

[supple bane]

Im guessing probably worse. The nhd 15 isnt a downdraft cooler. Its fans wont blow air on the vrms. but with an AIO the block isnt too obstructive so airflow from the case fans can blow over the heatsinks, but with a big, hot, tower cooler in the way that wont be a thing

[buoyant jewel]

it happens almost every minute, but the most huge drops happen at the beginning of each match

[glass iris]

what rez do u play on?

[buoyant jewel]

yeah, they're b-dies, but I dont want to sacrifice a week tuning them. I jsut enabled DOCP profile and chill

[prisma anvil]

True haha

[glass iris]

try 4k this sounds weird but game depends on gpu more when u higher the rez i saw people say they get better fps on 1440p than 1080p

[marsh gull]

fair enouph

[glass iris]

oh u dont have dlss amd i forgot did they release there dlss thing for amd idk this might make it worse might make it better

bc i think this tech depends on cpu so who knows maybe better maybe not

and did u update windows it might help

[modern gull]

I was thinking air will flow past VRMs a bit compared to the AIO pump doing nothing Also i don't have a side fan that blows air towards the vrms

[glass iris]

out of the topic but anyone knows how to fix BSOD? i built my pc around 8months/1year ago and i get alot of BSOD mostly when i start it up happenes once and then doesnt happen againt until the next day most of the time the performance is good so thank god it didnt affect the hardware

[buoyant jewel]

nope. but it doesnt matter, my problem is about cpu, not gpu which is fine

[supple bane]

No but your case fans will blow air across them.

[modern gull]

There should be some airflow still, but i guess we'll have to see if it is a major improvement or nothing at all

[supple bane]

Did it arrive yet?

[modern gull]

Nope, won't get it until tuesday or wednesday

the game doesn't utilise 100% of ur cpu

[digital vault]

@sour nest its steal alpha of 2042

[gilded thunder]

I wonder if having win 11 is a factor

[vapid estuary]

it only drops like 3fps i think

[gilded thunder]

Well then my computer is just bad lol

think it helped

and the gpu is 11 degrees cooler

must've been a bug

yea, you help because at least you replied

[tepid cave]

AMD ryzen 7 3700X

[storm rune]

hmm yea, it should run it pretty "fine"

new drivers?

have you messed with the cfg file?

[tepid cave]

no?

[storm rune]

than you should

yep ":D

[storm rune]

yea but really, do you have the newest drivers?

Me with gtx 1650 and ryzen 7 2700 getting 50 fps max

[grand relic]

@prime jasper How do I fix the insane CPU bottleneck caused due to bad optimization in. BF2042

My GPU produces 130fps ar 4K ultra

CPU processes 70 of those at most, in 128p breakthrough

[latent light]

GTX 1650 too weak for decent fps in BF2042, also having only 4GB VRAM on this GPU doesn't help

[grand relic]

R7 3700X OCed to 4.5GHz and 3080 Ti Vision OC

3600MHz ram

2x8

970 plus

Windows 10 latest

Internet is about 110mbp/s down and up

That I did

There's zero issue for loading

Doing perfoverlay.drawfps 1 in games console shows that my GPU fps is waaaaay ahead of my CPU fps and this is the only game with this issue

I was just checking

I play on 1440p

I have a 1440p 170hz

Ayy, same CPU cooler

The crazy CPU bottleneck became apparent when I realized I have same exact fps on 720p low vs 4k ultra

Because CPU fps is always at 80ish

The only thing that changes is usage

As I said the loading times have no issue

It's like 40% full

Even less

The BF4 runs like an absolute dream, so do BF1 and V

This is the first DX12 title and the first time I'm having these issues

CPU fps doesn't change. So I get the same fps regardless of the setting

And CPU utilization is 30-40

[thin swallow]

thank you for being a god for a ton of players

[orchid osprey]

So I've been having problems playing bf2042, my fps is quite low and I've lowered textures and such but it hasn't seemed to work

[thin swallow]

you tried DX12 + 0 Shadow yet?

[orchid osprey]

Yes

I put it to 1

[thin swallow]

whats shadow

[orchid osprey]

No idea

[thin swallow]

try foing that

ive heard it helps more

[orchid osprey]

What in notepad?

[thin swallow]

lemme find how to quicky;l

[orchid osprey]

Ok thanks

[thin swallow]

i have to go now

rip

basically look for shadow quality in the config file

[lofty kindle]

quick question, i havent updated the latest gpu drivers, if i download the drivers should my fps increase in bf2042 currently getting 50/60 on low

[blissful panther]

why does Sundance keep crashing amd drivers

[lofty kindle]

well i got the one before the latest

ok thx for the info

[blissful panther]

i have an AMD Radoen VII and everytime i get near the person "Sundance" my game crashes

alr thanks then

[raw turtle]

if none of this is fixed make a report to amd

could just be a driver issue

[cursive ermine]

guys do u think that gtx 1650 with i5 10400f can handle the game good?

the motherboard is Gigabyte B460M Gaming and i also got 16 gb ram

windows 10 pro, ssd is Crucial BX500 480GB

and internet speed is 500 mbps

[prime jasper]

Ay, can anyone help me with the ridiculously high cpu usage i have in bf2042

[raw turtle]

should do alright, maybe 60ish fps on low 1080p

[raw turtle]

what CPU?

[cursive ermine]

hmm alr

[raw turtle]

also there is probably no fix

[blissful panther]

Oh and uh heres the error message i get (it would not let me take a screen shot from pc so i had to from phone thats why its kinda like that)

[violet sundial]

My game is running terrible today and this is the only day that this has happened. Is this normal?

[raw turtle]

try restarting pc?

[violet sundial]

i did

[indigo elm]

can some one explain to me why i have 30 fps in game on low, with an 3060ti, i7-6700 😒

[violet sundial]

apex legends runs fine but battlefield dies

[raw turtle]

i7 6700 is the reason

[cursive ermine]

alright ty 👍

[violet sundial]

yeah i was just saying that to clarify that its not my pc itself it's probably the game

[indigo elm]

its weird that its not enough when they say it is

[prime jasper]

cpu: i5 9600k
gpu: RTX 2080
ram: 20gb 2666mhz

[violet sundial]

2080 ti and i9

[raw turtle]

actually i take that back, but the 6700 is still not near enough

over 6 years old at this point

6 year old quad core

it's not good enough for the most CPU intensive game released in modern day

[blissful panther]

how do i do that?

[raw turtle]

yeah 20gb? that's not right

[delicate reef]

@indigo elm go into Manage 3D Settings and try this.

[raw turtle]

that won't do anything most likely

[prime jasper]

My ram is 4gb+16gb running in dual channel. (yeah it's weird but it works). I have a 3tb hard drive paired with a 16gb optane ssd. windows is up to date and i'll try the sfc stuff

[raw turtle]

"power settings" are useless unless its on a mobile chip

[delicate reef]

Just got a 2060 and 3070 5 more frames each about :)

[raw turtle]

on the same map?

[delicate reef]

Yes

Literally

Also make sure Windows Power Settings are not on Optimal

[raw turtle]

still 5 fps lol

[delicate reef]

Every dollar counts

[raw turtle]

won't even notice that

[delicate reef]

Anyway, I just provide tips and help rather than shoot someone down right away. It's proven to work so far

Best of luck

[blissful panther]

its already up to date

[violet sundial]

should i try reinstalling the game? or should i wait for an update or something

they're fully updated

[quick locust]

why would you run sfc

Also use driver from website/package manager, the one auto installed by windows is usually a bit older

[lunar dawn]

to what version, you can check in nv control panel > system info the bottom

[violet sundial]

496.76 on 2080 ti

[quick locust]

not really anything related to 2042

sfc is only windows files and libraries

unless you have broken files/file corruption in Windows there's not much need to run it

what

they all do

[fickle torrent]

anyone got a fix for the infinite matchmaking menu loop thing?

[quick locust]

you don't need to

intel has DSA and graphics command center

though most intel updates is through windows update or just included with kernel on linux

[fickle torrent]

@prime jasper even if i have it on steam?

[forest sleet]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/696726738385895520/912081620247392256/unknown.png

anyone know how to fix this

[fickle torrent]

@prime jasper actually managed to get into a game, gonna try that after ill let u know what happens

[forest sleet]

Tried already

[fickle torrent]

@prime jasper for context, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yIOf6odLKbY (two games in a row have worked today, so far....)

[lunar dawn]

then id use ddu in safe mode to uninstall driver and reinstall latest

[fickle torrent]

things are working fine today, a little too well

[blissful panther]

ill try and see if it works

[forest sleet]

update windows 11?

Do i have to?

[prime jasper]

psst i did the stuff you recommended

i now have 50 frames instead of 40

yeah but i still have stutters and all that

guess i gotta wait for a major patch

low

future frame rendering?

[pale quartz]

Nvidia low latency does not increase the framerate lol

it reduces input latency

it actually decreases the average framerate by its own design

[prime jasper]

The same

Nothing really changed

yeah i give up

ty tho

this game just needs to be fixed

turned it off and it's still bad

maybe there's a hidden setting that's cooking my cpu

[frozen fractal]

any of you had luck fixing the stutter ?

[prime jasper]

re what

What's that

Oh i don't think it's a heat issue

[quick locust]

hm

i forgot to enable vnstat as a service

and to change its permissions

so i have large laps in my network usage history

🤦‍♂️

Fedora

[chrome skiff]

My old Sapphire r9 290 just died I think I got it in 2013... What a great card

[quick locust]

Rip

[dense ravine]

Hey I need some help.

So I’m trying to change my controller mapping, and I am on ps5. Over the time I have gotten into fps games, I’ve adopted a pretty weird controller setup which works really well if I want to have an advantage over default settings. The main inputs I want to change are melee to Circle (O), and crouch/prone to R3 (right stick) I also want to change my ads and fire buttons from L2 -> L1 and R2 -> R1, because of the travel time it takes to input the triggers. The last change I want to make is my Jump/vault/climb from X to L2, because I use both my middle and index fingers on my left hand to grip both L2 and L1 at the same time (don’t ask why, just happened over time) But, whenever I do all of this, I run into numerous problems. 1) Whenever I map the attachment wheel to R2, and use switch attachments, I literally cannot change my magazine type because whenever I press circle to switch ammo types my character melees, which therefore reverts the change and takes me out of the attachment wheel.
2) there are numerous mapping inputs which are now un set, which I cannot map to anything because they were a combo of buttons, such as calling in things, it has to be L1 + L2 but since I changed the inputs, I can’t map “calling in” to ____ buttons because it won’t register 2 inputs at a time

I really can’t change my controller style because this is how I have been playing cod, splitgate, and other fps titles for years, and cannot get used to the default settings, if anyone can help me, please, it would be very useful as I don’t want to regret buying a $90 game. (PS5 price for BF2042 in Canada)

Thank you to whoever takes the time to read all of this.

[gritty bloom]

its awesome getting 35 fps on low with a 3070 & i7 9700k

dlss auto

[atomic latch]

sounds like a CPU bottleneck

[gritty bloom]

it is, 99% usage cpu, 40 on gpu

only game this happens tho

[atomic latch]

Yeah, this game is very CPU demanding. Have you tried the DX12 fix?

[gritty bloom]

oh no, do you turn on dx12 ingame?

[atomic latch]

It's not in game, it's in your documents folder. Basically go to you Documents/Battlefield 2042/settings and edit the file "PROFSAVE_profile"

Then just find the setting for DX12 and set it to one.

[gritty bloom]

alright! thanks, lemme try that then

[prisma anvil]

With ram speed about 3200 cl16 xmp u should get around 100 fps. Just tuned someone with similar spec.

The profile thing won't help. It's placebo.

[quick locust]

I get around 80-100 in 1440p high

With lower specs than you

Without dlss

[thorny bridge]

I have gtx 1660 super gigabyte amd ryzen 5 3600 16 gb ram used windows 11 updates not working for me method do u have solution appreciated 👍

[prisma anvil]

Yeah I tuned someone here with a 9700f and got over 100 most of the time.

[gritty bloom]

my stock speed is 2666mhz, not sure if i can boost it all the way up there.. I have it on 29xx something, Really need some new part, damn

[prisma anvil]

Yeah ur heavily ram bottlenecked

[thorny bridge]

I have gtx 1660 super gigabyte amd ryzen 5 3600 16 gb ram used windows 11 updates not working for me method do u have solution appreciated thumbsup

[prisma anvil]

I can't even get past 90fps without xmp over jedec

[quick locust]

Just use xmp then?

[thorny bridge]

I have activated xmp

[prisma anvil]

If ur ram have it and mobo supports it, yes

For zen3, 11th gen intel users who have xmp over 3600. Don't go over 3600 or it will de sync infinity fabric or go to gear 2 and make ur game fps worse. Either try ur luck with infinity fabric overclocking or force memory controller go gear 1 or manually downclock to 3600 after applying xmp.

[thorny bridge]

Help me overlooking

Hey

[honest bison]

Should I update the GPU drivers to the bf2042 ones? im getting 80-120 fps as for now on old drivers

[atomic latch]

Nah, the newer drivers dont really add much except for DLSS support.

[prisma anvil]

If u want. I don't see much performance difference

Maybe 0 maybe 5 or less I can't feel it.

[left musk]

Just wanted to give @prisma anvil a quick shoutout, helped my fps issue 🙂

[vague star]

I have a 1660 super and i7-9700f. I run this game on 50-70 fps, what can i do to improve fps

I play on low graphics and have made changes to the nvidia control panel setting for the game

[broken pike]

have a 5800x with 3080 - 32g 3200 ram - complete system liquid cooled...getting around 100fps with all settings on high...does that sound right for where this game is at right now?

Clyde
BOT
— Today at 4:34 PM

[prisma anvil]

pretty much could be abit better

[prisma anvil]

if u have good cooling u can unlock power limits, check if ram is slotted right and xmp is enabled

[broken pike]

Came overclocked from pre-built - EK Fluid

[prisma anvil]

idk how they overclocked but its pretty much a ram bottlenecked at this point

[broken pike]

okay...i'll check the xmp setting ...pretty sure it's enabled...maybe just wait and see if they optimze game more in near future?

[prisma anvil]

yeah, basically

[broken pike]

....k...thx for the info

[prisma anvil]

even at stock xmp, I assume its 3200 cl16 its still bottlenecking

[broken pike]

think switching to 3600 will help...even 32g

[prisma anvil]

abit, u want 3600 with the lowest cas latency (cl)

for zen3 best is 3600 cl14 xmp ram

[broken pike]

sounds good...I'll check it out...thx again

[prisma anvil]

also check the prebuilt overclock. I usually dont trust them.

[left timber]

can someone help

is this where i ask for help

[midnight crypt]

Its not

[left timber]

where do i

[vague star]

thank you @prisma anvil it didnt really help much with fps but i am up at a steady 60-80

[prisma anvil]

u unlocked the power limit?

[hidden thorn]

Is battlefield 2042 worth it?

[vague star]

yes

[hidden thorn]

I have an Xbox one though does that change anything

[vague star]

xb1 with new games isnt all that good

get the newer xbox, it will run new gen games better

[prisma anvil]

oh then ur prob gpu bottlenecked

[vague star]

im not

i know that for certain

[prisma anvil]

the other guy has the same cpu as u and was getting around 100ish

[vague star]

what gpu

[prisma anvil]

2080 super

[vague star]

and is his cpu oc

[prisma anvil]

9700f

u cant oc a f

[vague star]

right

forgot

i mean 2080 super def a better gpu than mine

[frozen fractal]

have anyone actually had success with the auto settings in graphics?

[atomic latch]

Yes

I used it on Auto, set my system to Medium, and runs pretty well considering the whole optimization issue

[short pawn]

cant turn off weapon dof

did console command

and profile manually

still on

game automaticly sets dof to 1 when i open

[cursive ermine]

What would yall buy for gaming amd ryzen 7 2700 or i5 10400f?

[prisma anvil]

if you only got these 2 choices, 10400f, just way higher IPC

[slate ivy]

So any idea what could be the issue: after the recent BF and Driver update, my GPU use only goes up to 80% and my CPU goes to 27%, however, im still stuck at 60-80 fps

[prisma anvil]

whats ur specs cpu gpu ram

[slate ivy]

5950x, 3080ti, 64GB DDR4 3600 (with bios settings changed accordingly)

[prisma anvil]

Hmmm what's ur settings. 27% is about right as this game uses 8 threads and you have 32.

At medium it should get 120+ ez

[wraith sky]

What resolution you gaming at?

[slate ivy]

Ultra + FOV 90 + all "visual extra stuff" like filmgrain, bloom, etc. disabled @ 1440p

[prisma anvil]

Do u have raytracing disabled?

[slate ivy]

wait is is enabled by default?

[prisma anvil]

I forgot you gotta check.

[slate ivy]

i might have to check that when i get home.... thanks 😄

[prime jasper]

@slate ivy this game is in early acces bro .. battlefield 4 was more disgusting in early opening then this game now.. i get also only 50-60 fps and got a fucking 3,5k pc but its normal i guess after 2-3 months they gonna fix dat and u can run around with 120-140 fps

[regal warren]

I have i7 10700 - RTX Geforce 2060 super and @slate ivy And only get 80-90 fps no more than 100 have 16 threads is that normal??

[slate ivy]

i hope it gets better with updates, my need to dial down some unnecessary visual things hoping to find something that gives me a big boost like settings grass textures to low in GTA V giving you a 30% FPS boost

[prisma anvil]

What's ur spec? I think u need help if u are getting that fps

[prisma anvil]

Sounds about normal check ur ram if xmp is on and also remove all power limit (if u have decent cooling)

[modern gull]

I recently disabled HT, but what is your GPU usage like? If it is at 100% you can't really get more fps out of your system with your current gpu

[regal warren]

I have in game 75-80%

@modern gull look pls pm

[warped apex]

12700K vs 12900K: what would you choose for BF2042 to play in 1440p?

[modern gull]

2 sec

[kind jungle]

I have ryzen 3 3300x with 1650 super. Is my system too weak for this game? Cus sometime i get crazy stutter

[quick locust]

3300X is only quad core

[frozen fractal]

whats the console command for fps cap in 2042 ?

rivatuner giving me judder i just cant get rid of, frametimes are solid on the graph

[feral gull]

my gpu usage is stuck at 40%.. this is unplayable

[warped apex]

What's your CPU?

[modern gull]

Tbh HT is somewhat over rated for games if you have 6+ cores. You might get better performance disabling it at that stage

[slate holly]

anyone else's EA play RPC not working when playing battlefield?

[quick locust]

not really

[pale badger]

anyone got some experience with replacing old thermal paste, is it worth it? haven't touched stuff since I installed the CPU cooler 4 years ago.

[glad hemlock]

i'm getting like 100-115+ frams with my 1080ti and 5600x

[pale badger]

I don't know if it ages and looses a lot of thermal-transfer-performance

[latent eagle]

quick question: what fps can i expect with ryzen 5 2600 and 1070? i dont want to get the game if i cant get stable 60fps

[quick locust]

Hard to estimate unless someone has same combination as you

ram included

[latent eagle]

yeah thats what i was thinking aswell, but this hardware is fairly common for low-medium end pc`s

[modern gull]

If you try 4c8t HT off you probably will see performance loss, but 6c+ HT off you might see performance improvement

Several variables to this ofc. But i would assume HT to provide good boost, but from my research it mostly in games seems to be good for low end cpu like 4c8t

[marsh gull]

in low you'll get almost all the time above 60 fps. I used to have a 1650 super and a ryzen 3 3100 and in low i had an average above 60 for most of the time

so dont worry

[marsh gull]

nice

i have a radeon rx 6600 and a 5600x an i use medium settings 1080p an i get an average of 90 fps

which is very playable

[marsh gull]

maybe turn on future frame rendering and maybe your cpu is bottlnecking your system?

[latent eagle]

thank you!

[marsh gull]

its normal

[marsh gull]

no prob you'll run it fine

the curious thing about this game is that you may not have crazy high framerates but its veeery playable, even at 60-70 fps

like it feels smooth

even tho you dont have 144 fps

[latent eagle]

in bf5 i have around 110

[marsh gull]

yeah i love bf5 for its optimisation its so ez to run on mid range hardware

[hearty roost]

4 years are ok. Shouldn`t change much if it was from beginning a good thermal paste. If you want to replace it stick with thermal grizzly.

[latent eagle]

if your temps are fine you dont really need to touch it, same with gpu thermals

[pale badger]

Aight, I'll let it be then 🙂

[latent eagle]

replacing thermal paste on GPU voids your warranty

[marsh gull]

yeah pretty much

[marsh gull]

i mean gpu warranties arent that long either (3years on average)

[hearty roost]

Not on all and totally not in all country its a really hard grey zone.

[pale badger]

Temps are fine I guess but did some overclocking yesterday and figured if I could gain a few degrees by replacing old paste that wouldn't hurt I guess.

[latent eagle]

yeah, but it also hurts resale value i wouldnt want to get a gpu thats without sticker, who knows what has been done with it

[latent eagle]

i mean if you get some good thermal paste you could, but also you can change fan settings in BIOS to be more aggresive, or lower voltage and see if its stable

[hearty roost]

Here in germany, as an example no screw is locked by an sticker.

[pale badger]

True 🙂

[latent eagle]

What cpu do you have?

[pale badger]

8700k

[hearty roost]

Sure just stick with thermal grizzly conductonaut or kryonaut. Can improve temps a lot. High class thermal paste.

[latent eagle]

you can get some quite good specs out of that 5.2-5.5Ghz

[pale badger]

bumped it to 4.9GHz, -200MHz AVX offset that kicks in when running battlefield. Haven't had time to fine-tune or compare temps too much.

[hearty roost]

But beware if you want thermal paste like the conductonaut its liquid metal. Its not like normal thermal paste

[pale badger]

Unsure how far I can go with my Noctua NH-U14S, and if my cpu-sample is up for it. 5.2+ sounds really high on all cores though?

[latent eagle]

thats a pretty beefy cooler, on what voltage are you running it at?

[quick locust]

that's only for highest bins

most 8700K can only do 5.0 to 5.1

[latent eagle]

can i link you a post with few ppl who have tried to overclock it and see if it maybe works for you?

[pale badger]

Think i configured it at 1.33. Ain't got much overclocking experience so unsure if thats high or low

[quick locust]

This depends on area. It's not the case for EU and US.

[hearty roost]

Noctua is good but 5.2+ more with the nh 15 the big one. With u14 5ghz I guess shouldn´t be a problem.

[latent eagle]

here [serbia] they wont accept it if you have cracked the sticker, when you buy a prebuild you cant even open sidepanel without voiding warranty

[quick locust]

serbia isn't in EU

[latent eagle]

nope its not

[quick locust]

and a lot of prebuilts have shipping packaging inside of them

so i guess that'd be a stupid issue there

pc full of the packaging bag

[latent eagle]

well they dont really do that here, they just put it in a box and thats it, delivery drivers dont really care about them. thats why when you are getting something expensive you go in person to take it

[feral gull]

that seems to have worked, thx

[feral gull]

nvm... still 50 percent

fuck this game

[hearty roost]

Nvidia has issues to utilise more GPU power. Most people only can wait for a fix from Nvidia.

[lunar dawn]

you ll def need a noctua nh d15

the big boi

or an aio

[pale badger]

Yeah, unsure if it rocks with my RAM though, if it's any bigger in that particular direction

[hearty roost]

the big boiiiiii Hes thicc

[lunar dawn]

well you can mesure the distance with your ram and also check how big the cooler is on google

or you can get an aio (like 360 mm or better)

[hearty roost]

nh d15 likes low profile ram

[lunar dawn]

indeed

[hearty roost]

Up to 43mm I mean should be same like my Be Quiet boi

[lunar dawn]

nh d15 likes to get all the air it possibly can

[marsh gull]

no prob makes the game seem wayy smoother for some reason lmao

[latent eagle]

what app are you using for monitoring? windows task manager is not good at reporting accuratly usage

[prisma anvil]

5.2 is very good, but u are using avx offset

you want avx offset to be at 0

[latent eagle]

where my stock cooler gang at

[prisma anvil]

🥲

intel stock cooler is mad

[hearty roost]

Intel Stock cooler

[prisma anvil]

[latent eagle]

i tied my old cpu cooler to my motherboard using zip ties, its for 2011LGA socket

[hearty roost]

Probably can use a 60mm fan, it would keep the Intel core cooler

Or some random copper heatpipe

[pale badger]

not running 5.2 (if that was how it was perceived), running 4.9, 4.7 with AVX.
Ain't I gonna run into issues with AVX offset set to 0 in some scenario? if some tasks hardcore AVX usage makes the CPU sweat a lot

[prisma anvil]

so in this case u would do 4.7ghz all core

avx offset 0

all my homies hate avx offset

[marsh gull]

used to be part of it lel

[prisma anvil]

heck even windows use some light avx

[pale badger]

ok. just to kind of 'know what I'm actually running', no "random-factor", or is there any actual drawbacks of having avx playing around with the CPU alot?

like overhead due to it fiddling with the clock

[prisma anvil]

just a pain to dial in oc with 0 benefit and inconsistent clock speed

[pale badger]

aight 🙂

[prisma anvil]

also 4.7 is already respectable

thats all core

[latent eagle]

open up side panel for few C less

[prisma anvil]

8th gen use **** tim between the cpu die and the ihs

🥲

delid for -15 to 20c

but i dont recommend it

unless u are THAT GUY

[pale badger]

Hehe nah. When I switch CPU in the future I'll let the kids have this one. Don't wanna risk deliding stuff. never done it before so unsure how hard or what risks it comes with.. but.. I'm not that hardcore 🙂

[feral gull]

msi afterburner and rivatuner. Playing in 2k with a rtx 3070 and r5 3600. Even with all the graphics turned up to the max, including raytracing, my gpu usage still stays below 60% and even if i put it on low, i see no difference in fps. Also enabled dx12

[prisma anvil]

I am THAT GUY, not fun 🤣

[pale badger]

Went all-out on the cooling on my old Gefore 2 titanium back in the day but have played it pretty safe since then 😄

[latent eagle]

you need special tools and it can go south really quick, i saw reddit post of one guy breaking his cpu in half

[prisma anvil]

enable dx12 is placebo. also ur cpu and ram bottlenecked

[latent eagle]

poop game

[kind jungle]

omg after i turned up xmp i have no crazy stutter anymore, but my cpu went from 77 to 81 degree on loading is that ok?

[feral gull]

my ram is running at 3200 mhz with xmp on

[pale badger]

Yeah that's what I'm afraid of 😄

Split it in half and you can't even make a keychain out of it

[prisma anvil]

this game scales with ram as hard as warzone going from my 3600 cl16 xmp to 4000 cl15 manual tune got me 20 more fps

[latent eagle]

high risk high reward

[prisma anvil]

but ur maily cpu bottlenecked

ur ram is fine

[feral gull]

have no issues on any other game, even get around 80 fps in cyberpunk with everything on ultea/psycho

[latent eagle]

how does it feel to play cyberpunk at ultra?

[prisma anvil]

insane

looks fantastic

[feral gull]

pretty nice actually, graphics look nice.. the game is still shit

[prisma anvil]

I actually like the game at the current state

launch was a bug mess

[latent eagle]

i played it on launch, never crashed once but still with all sidequets done 45 hours for whole game is too little

[feral gull]

they did fix some issues, that's true, but the physics, the ai, the mechanics.. everything is just bad

[latent eagle]

skyrim is 10 years old now and that game took me well over 100 hours

[feral gull]

just like battlefielsd 2077

[pale badger]

Wish I knew that 4 years ago when I got my 3000mhz ddr4 huh 😅

"I'm just gonna do gaming, no need for fast RAM"

[prisma anvil]

yeah then u play warzone

and now 2042

nani!

[pale badger]

Yeah, games are catching up, utilizing the hardware that is produced. Good in a way I guess. But more expensive gaming 😛

[feral gull]

the game is just an unoptimized piece of shit.. not caused by ram,

[marsh gull]

its fine

its still under manageable temps

[latent eagle]

dry ice is always a solution if it gets hot

[hearty roost]

3000 isnt bad. Not all CPUs are better with higher ram

quite many cpus losing performance with a to high clock on ram

or starting to be unstable

[pale badger]

I love this place. many other rooms are so toxic, but here we're just chillin', talking hardware.. and if you feel bad a bro comes and says "don't worry bro, not all CPU's are better with higher ram".

https://tenor.com/view/fucking-love-you-guys-samus-paulicelli-66samus-i-love-you-guys-i-love-you-all-gif-18038934

[prisma anvil]

thats because they de sync infinity fabric or go to gear 2

in that case u want to aim for lower cl (cas latency) rather than higher speed

[pale badger]

Read about cas latency back in the day but couldn't wrap my head around it. have been scared about that stuff since then 😄

[prisma anvil]

from my test zen 3 and 11th gen rocketlake hit a wall around 3600-4000 running 1:1:1 and gear 1

I heard alderlake can do around 4000 at gear 1 but I didn't test it yet

yeah ram oc is a pain

normally i tell people get the cheapest 3600 cl16 and enable xmp

and tell people to get 3600 cl14 if they are rich

[feral gull]

I still feel like i've been ripped off by dice at this point, i literarly bought an rtx 3070 and a 2k 165hz monitor just for the sake of this game. Just to see that the performance is not even close to what has been promised.

[pale badger]

@feral gull same, got a 3070 too for this game just to see it work at 25% 😄

[prisma anvil]

i aint gonna lie this game is still badly optimized

but high players game ram speed matters

[pale badger]

That frostbite engine mining dogecoins while we play or something?

[prisma anvil]

cant get over that wall

[feral gull]

Guess i'm gonna spend my timp in enlisted until dice decides to get their shit together

Time*

But yeah.. Having a relatively capable machine.. I'd say it's in the upper end of the mid range area just to load into kaleidoscope and wanting to cry in anger right after was a bad deal

[pale badger]

if 128 players is what made this game eat CPU like this, i'd say it's not worth it. 64 was just fine imo, didn't see any reason to go 128 and just make parts of the gameplay a big fluster cuck

[feral gull]

I don't think it's the player count

Althougj it does eat up quite a bit of the cpu load overall, something can be done to transfer some of the tasks to the gpu

They really really need to get their shit together

My dissapointment is inmeasurable and my day has been ruined

Also, leaving this behind, did you oc your 3070?

[prisma anvil]

it is. same story in warzone

[pale badger]

Tried some when I got it but can't really remember the results. Didn't really feel a need for that extra performance so I let it run on defaults after that.

[feral gull]

I get constant 170 fps in warzone without any issues whatsoever

[prisma anvil]

thats cause its easier to run than 2042

[feral gull]

So, 50 fps in 2042 on low, vs 170 on warzone, low as well.. I'd say the perfirmance gap is a bit too big

Performance*

But yeah, got to be honest as well, it's a tiny bit bettet in hazard zone

[jovial linden]

I played with a 2060 and a 9700k and was hitting around 110 on everything low, i upgraded to a 2080 super and now i get 60-70

let’s go

[feral gull]

Sad reacts only

[jovial linden]

same settings btw

just diff graphics card

[feral gull]

It is the ram.. Trust me

[hearty roost]

yeah the ram

[hearty roost]

Dont worry Nvidia messed up with high end cards.

or mostly with any card

[feral gull]

This "buy it first, we'll fix it later" marketing strategy is getting ridiculous

[prisma anvil]

yeah less player

I get about 130-170 in 2042 170-300+ in warzone

game is not optimized haha not gonna defend

[feral gull]

Really hope they will fix it.. Asap

[prisma anvil]

but even with optimization ram scaling will still be present

[feral gull]

With optimization, 3200 will be enough

[prisma anvil]

its actually ram latency

not just speed

speed does correlate to ram latency

its complicated haha

for example 3200 cl14 will beat a 3600 cl18 usually

[feral gull]

My dudes, with low gou usage

Please try something out. Reset the graphic settings to default abd let me k ow if that fixes the issue for you

Found a weird reddit thread but it seems to have worked for some people

Fuck i hate my phone keyboard

[hearty roost]

I ve deleted the settings folder so often as well as a fully reinstall of Nvidias driver

[frosty charm]

how is BF2042 only 47 GB?

[feral gull]

Dont use warzone as a standard, 47gb is more than enougj

[hearty roost]

Cause its not Activision

[frosty charm]

Based

[marsh gull]

it will get bigger as more maps, guns and updates are added to the game

and i mean it aint a bad thing either

[frosty charm]

I was using battlefront 2 as a standard tbh which is 91 but it probably has more maps and overall more content

[marsh gull]

[frosty charm]

not sure if I should be impressed cause it's well compressed or disappointed cause it shows how little content the game has

or does it?

[marsh gull]

i mean the game so far has decent content and it will expand over the next weeks

but i wouldnt cry over bf 2042 not occupying enouph space in our drives

[feral gull]

I wish that was the o ly thibg we could get to complaib about

[frosty charm]

could you link it?

[marsh gull]

fair enouph

[frosty charm]

I get only about 25% GPU utilization on task manager with my 2060

but about 80% CPU usage

and I get 50 fps average in conquest

[marsh gull]

turn on future frame rendering and turn up the graphic settings

[frosty charm]

turn them up?

[feral gull]

Idk how to do it from the reddit phonw app

Future frame rendering does nothing

[marsh gull]

ex: instead of low put them on medium

[frosty charm]

bruh just click the share button below the post slightly right from the centre and it will come up

[marsh gull]

it helps with smoothness and gpu utilisation

[lunar dawn]

check temps

with programs like hwinfo64

[frosty charm]

I do, I use throttlestop for that

I get at most 86

and I can decrease it by disabling intel turbo boost

I even have a cooling stand with extra fans

I know...

[lunar dawn]

what about gpu

also check the cpu clock while playing

anyway if you want a good tool to check temps use https://www.hwinfo.com

in sensor only mode

[pale badger]

I'm using RealTemp. is it considered trustworthy?

[lunar dawn]

its not bad but hwinfo is way way more advanced

like it gives you all info about system

[frosty charm]

I meant the GPU goes to 86 max. The CPU can get up to like 95

[lunar dawn]

damn thats kinda bad

you should also check the clock speeds

[frosty charm]

it's lower if I disable intel turbo boost, but that tends to hurt fps

[frosty charm]

ok what do those tell me?

[lunar dawn]

i mean thats the point ... slower cpu is easier to do

[lunar dawn]

basically faster cpu = better fps

and with no turb boost is goes slower

but its easier to cool

[frosty charm]

ye

[lunar dawn]

if the cpu gets too hot it simply clock down and becomes slower

[frosty charm]

I have heard about undervolting

[lunar dawn]

yes undervolting is good but dont exagerate

if you dont know what you re doing

[frosty charm]

that's the thing...I don't know what I'm doing

[lunar dawn]

and second clean your laptop fans and perhaps also repaste it (if you havent change the thermal paste in 1-2 years)

[frosty charm]

I cleaned it not too long ago cause I had to replace the battery since the old one bloated

[lunar dawn]

then watch a tutorial on youtube but anyway dont mess with voltages too much

[frosty charm]

repaste is gonna be hard cause it's under the fans

[lunar dawn]

i use a -125 mv undervolt on cpu cache and core on my i 8750h

[lunar dawn]

thats the point ...

you have to remove the fans

[frosty charm]

Yeah

[lunar dawn]

remove the screws and remove the fans

[frosty charm]

but I need this laptop for university

[lunar dawn]

i mean repasting isnt hard

[frosty charm]

there is a risk of something going wrong

and looking at the current hardware prices I don't want to risk it

[lunar dawn]

well ... tbh its really isnt hard

you remove the screws and clean the old paste with alcohol

anyway your hardware can live longer at lower temps

higher temps are usually bad for hardware

[frosty charm]

I know that

[lunar dawn]

also there are a lot of tutorials on how to do it on yt

[lunar dawn]

killing? nah

[cold finch]

I have so much stuttering in this game.. its unplayeble... Anyone know how to fix the stutter/rubberbanding?
My specs i5-6900k, rtx2070, 8gram

[prime jasper]

Has anyone had any luck setting up a HOTAS?

[feral gull]

it's just the game being unoptimized.. i've been trying to fix that for a few days now. Doesnt matter if the settings are low or ultra.. on my rtx 3070 it ranges between 50-70

[storm osprey]

the game is cpu dependent, and we cant claim unoptimized because theres literally nothing out like it

hell in comparison to halo infinite i would say 2042 is very well optimized

[prime jasper]

How on earth can you say that lol

[bitter pilot]

rubberbanding is mainly induced by network.

[storm osprey]

which part?

[prime jasper]

That it's well optimized compared to Halo

[verbal cliff]

Bruh I’m getting 120 fps on high settings on infinite and only 70-90 in 2042

[bitter pilot]

i always recommend running a benchmark on userbenchmark.com
After receiving the results you see what component isn't working as expected and from there you can determine what do do next, if at all. If anything is fine i would point the finger at the game and say it's unoptimized (spoiler: it is!)

[storm osprey]

because on halo i get 110 fps, while 2042 i get 95, but infinite has way more players, much larger maps, and better graphics

big team battle has 24 players... basically 1/5 the amount 2042 has, infinites largest map is like a quarter the size of 2042s smallest map.. these games are not equal and yet performance isnt that far off from eachother

[feral gull]

quit bullshitting

[cold finch]

I can Play other games fine with No problems, only bf2042 i have problems with

[cold finch]

Okay ty. Its so annoying was hype for the game to play.. but ye what to do

[storm osprey]

i have no reason to lie to some randos on the internet

[feral gull]

then dont

[storm osprey]

well im not so...

[storm osprey]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6iz6b1VXRbE&t=65s

i dont play on ultra though, but most everything else is the same, this dude gets 90-100 fps

[feral gull]

not talking about halo infinite

[storm osprey]

i have a 10700k and 3080, this is 10700k and 3090, but i dont play at ultra settings

[feral gull]

on rtx 390, 1440 it should be at least 120fps

[storm osprey]

... you realize that statement isnt true for halo infinite either right?

[quick locust]

I get 80-95 fps with 2080 ti

8700K

In 1440p

Not maxed though

[quick locust]

Games are different

[storm osprey]

@feral gull https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FqDXSc6tCrQ

hes barely getting 120 fps in small game mode outside of fights

[feral gull]

you really have no clue what game optimization means, do you

[storm osprey]

theres multiple aspects to it, which i assume now you are going to change your topic of optimization to bugs and not performance since i proved what fps i was getting for both games and how they are similar

[feral gull]

check forza horizon 5 for refference. One of the most optimized games out there

nope, optimiuzation. I can del with the bugs, but i can;t deal with how dice fucked up everything when it comes to performance overall

[storm osprey]

? i just showed two sources that with a 5800x and a 3090 that infinite gets 10 fps more than 2042...

[quick locust]

They haven't? (To hophead)

Except with nvidia initially, but that's on nvidia too

[storm osprey]

video i linked has 5800x and 3090, 1440p ultra in small game mode they are getting about 120fps average, go to the screenshot for 2042 and you get 112 for the same specs...

[delicate reef]

I play that in 4K on an overclocked 3090 and still only do 80fps.

2042 nets me about 95fps

Less frames in horizon 5 for sure though

[storm osprey]

imagine complaining about 2042 performance when with the same specs infinite gets 8 more fps with 8 players, tiny map, and no vehicles..

[delicate reef]

Rat race be like

[storm osprey]

tbh i dont think halo scales very well, and 2042 is cpu dependent, so since i play at 1440p its a weird scenario of how close they perform

but thats still the fact of the matter that at 1440p infinite and 2042 perform really close to each other, even though 2042 has waaaaaaaayyyyyy more going on

[delicate reef]

Hard to compare different engines and how they utilize lighting, LODs, etc etc. So eh

[storm osprey]

its not hard to see halo small game mode and 2042 conquest and know which one is more impressive, and then have them compare within 10 fps on eachother

[feral gull]

so you're still claiming that bf2042 is well optimized and that it's perfectly normal for it to behave like that on high end systems

[delicate reef]

It's not normal. Could be better, but I've seen worse.

[storm osprey]

as a generalization i dont think we can claim how good or badly optimized 2042 is because there arent many points of reference to compare it to, but compared to halo infinite which hardly anyone is complaining about optimization, 2042 gets pretty close to it

[delicate reef]

Games just be demanding these days. I mean again, 2042 gets more frames on a 3090 than Horizon 5, (sometimes RDR2) and about the same in Horzion Zero Dawn

Again, 2042 could be better, but it need optimization for all cards. Not just a few

[prisma anvil]

I think they can squeeze about 10-20 fps more in this game. Beta to now was about 10 fps increase. Maybe they somehow make this game utilize all your cores and threads instead of just 8. That would be awesome.

[gleaming tangle]

I have an i7-8700K overclocked to 4.8GHz, and I'm CPU bottlenecked at around 70-90 fps on 64 player bot servers. All my settings are low (but this shouldn't matter because it seems like the GPU is doing 160+ fps anyway). Anyone else know how to improve CPU performance or do I just need to wait for either a patch or a new CPU?

[feral gull]

the cpu for sure

[prisma anvil]

Better ram probably

[lunar dawn]

lower graphics setting/lower res= more cpu bound
higher graphics quality/resolution = more gpu bound

also what are you using to check fps

msi afterburner or steam/origin/nvidia overlay work well for me

[gleaming tangle]

Yeah I understand that it's CPU bound but upping the settings only seem to use the GPU more but don't lower CPU usage

I'm using msi afterburner to record averages

[lunar dawn]

dont record average framerate

but real framerate

i mean just framerate

[gleaming tangle]

Yeah that's what I'm doing

[delicate reef]

Thats what I just did

Ultra 4K with 3090

95fps in 2042
95fps in Horizon Zero Dawn
86fps in Red Dead Redemption 2
84fps in Forza Horizon 5
72fps in FarCry 6
62fps in 2077 (dlss too)

Is 2042 really terrible optimization? No. Can it be better? Yes.

Gotta try halo later

[storm osprey]

2042 is just so cpu bound that the higher the resolution the better the performance is relative

[delicate reef]

It seems that way

My res forces the gpu I think

[thorny bridge]

Yeah

Low fps

yo my computer is pulling super low frames but only in menu can someone help me out?

[molten coral]

game was using 24GB after I closed it back to 7,7

[gleaming tangle]

You've got 95 fps? What CPU?

[feral gull]

I overclocked my cpu to 4.2 ghz

Trying to see if it will help at all

[quick locust]

4.2? Which cpu

[feral gull]

R5 3600

But it still drops in the low 50'

[opaque wren]

Someone that knows how the hell i can play bf2042? i cant pass the <connecting to online services> part

[delicate reef]

Yes. Slightly overclocked i9 9900k

[feral gull]

fuck Dice, requested a refund and never touching this piece of garbage ever again

[proud trellis]

bye

[storm osprey]

i wonder how bad steam reviews would have been for bf4 launch

[molten coral]

bad

Probably worse than what it is now

[storm osprey]

youd assume so, its only logical, but people arent logical so who the frick knows

[wet notch]

2042 getting bad reviews because of technical stuff, like bugs, performance etc or gameplay choices, or both?

[vapid estuary]

you can oc them to 4.4

if u have good enough cooling

[supple bane]

Thats not really an overclock

Thats the same as the max boost of the 3600. You have it operating in factory speeds

[feral gull]

they declined my refund.. guess i'm stuck here

[supple bane]

Therefor its not an overclock

[thorny bridge]

Graphics Card gtx 1660 super gigabyte amd ryzen 5 3600 shutter fps do u have solution

[feral gull]

4.4 is unstable, guesss i lost the sillicon lottery

[supple bane]

On what voltage?

[verbal cliff]

Started getting 100+ fps on breakthrough

Finally

[feral gull]

1.2v

[feral gull]

what did you do

[verbal cliff]

Lowered all my settings to low and kept anti aliasing on max

[supple bane]

You can go lots higher than that

Infact 1.2v is lower than stock i believe

Its actually kinda impressive you are getting locked 4.2 at 1.2v

[verbal cliff]

Using a ryzen 5 3600 and rx 6600 xt 32 gb ram 3200mhz

[thorny bridge]

Hi

[supple bane]

Go to 1.3 or 1.35, could get 4.4 or 4.5 ghz

1.375 ish is max safe for every day use

As long as its cool, anything under 1.4 is fine

[feral gull]

i only got the coolermaster hyper212 with 2 fans

not sure if it's gonna hold up
