so your only option is 512 GB SSD

Wait, is Dok a newfie? 😤
fresh lintel
Also thats a RAM stick
frozen loom
NVME.
sullen quarry
why tf PCs and laptops have to be more expensive than a console
why cant they just make it cheaper
frozen loom
That’s not RAM.
sullen quarry
😭😭😭
fresh lintel
I know :3
robust vapor
Alt I hope you spawn on the enemy team in 2042
fresh lintel
And its because tech companies hate us and want poor people to suffer
fresh lintel
Dok: I'll have you know I will pull out the SFAR.
frozen loom
why tf PCs and laptops have to be more expensive than a console
The only appeal of a console is that they’re cheap. Take that away and they got nothing.
fresh lintel
And i'll take out every son of a bitch I can.
pine roost
Goodness me those prices have dropped since I had to build my pc. £80 for a 1TB nvme?
robust vapor
From where you are located, it might be cheap or expensive
So whatever fuck priced you stated here will be different for everyone
pine roost
It was around £160 when I got mine first time round
sullen quarry

I'm actually curious and i'm unsure if itll be the issue but do you run the game...
Yes
pine roost
You know what else is annoying though
fresh lintel
Okay so that MIIIIGHT be your rendering issue.
sullen quarry
What if you get an SSD and the problem isn't fixed
pine roost
When you set yourself to invisible and close down the game after playing it sets you to online again
fresh lintel
Then you pray to the machine spirit and ease its fury with the right incantations and spiritual waxes
pine roost
Or just hit your pc with a hammer

"Just get an SSD" mfs worst nightmare
tropic geyser
Okay so that MIIIIGHT be your rendering issue.
I'll try moving it to my ssd and see if that helps
chilly jacinth
running the game off of an hdd is not a good idea
tropic geyser
I run all my games off my hdd
This is the only game that seems to chuck a hissy fit over it
fresh lintel
Yeah now a days its better to do SSD

Someone like slow load screens
sullen quarry
Did you know 2042 is also a PS4 game?
fresh lintel
I'd rather slow load screens over the off chance an enemy doesnt render for a minute, kills me. And then me being unable to shoot the bastard through a fake wall 😭
tropic geyser
Running off a hdd's usually never been a problem aside from the loading times which I've been fine with
And back when I built this pc it was much cheaper to get a 2 tb hard drive as opposed to the same amount on an ssd for 4x the price
Ssd prices have dropped within the past few years though
I could probably get a 2tb ssd for like $60
fresh lintel
Yeah id probably be running off of an HDD myself if I still had a PC. Or built one recently
I'm just an old woman 🥴

robust vapor
minimum requirements are stated in Steam
fresh lintel
Too be fair i'm jaded to 128 players, there isnt much this game does better with 128 than Planetside 2.
Like this game could have destruction removed and i'd think this was made 10 years ago with PS2.
sullen quarry
If the 1650 can run it at 1080p60 Medium, anything else can
robust vapor
you need to do a comparison between each specs

I can assure you a 1050ti or anything similar can't run the game stable

remote kiln
1440p on those specs will kill your performance
you are CPU bottlenecked in IPC and utilisation
tropic geyser
no it's not
remote kiln
yes, it is my guy
remote kiln
you have less available utilisation than a 8 thread processor
tropic geyser
at least not according to the multiple bottleneck calculators I used to triple check it when I built it
remote kiln
you understand this yes
tropic geyser
yeah I know that
fresh lintel
I'd be dropping to a lower resolution anyways
More FPS :3
remote kiln
your stuttering is because your processor is maxing on its thread count
no choice but to upgrade it that's nowhere near enough
tropic geyser
what would the processor read on my task manager when running the game
remote kiln
10400f is 2x more than your current one
you'll be at or near 90-100% when running the game
untold flower
bottleneck calculators are garbage bro
remote kiln
there's nothing you can do to change this, you are hardware limited
untold flower
tropic geyser
you'll be at or near 90-100% when running the game
it showed 55% usage toward battlefield when I checked it
cpu was maxed out overall
fresh lintel
Can I use a bottleneck calculator on myself
remote kiln
there you go lol
untold flower
Can I use a bottleneck calculator on myself
ill use a bottleneck calculator on you
fresh lintel
Ayo? 🤭
tropic geyser
bottleneck calculators are garbage bro
what's the alternative?
remote kiln
the alternative is using due diligence
tropic geyser
thank you
remote kiln
and your own research
tropic geyser
what's a helpful alternative
remote kiln
that is it, fill yourself in on why it's important
sullen quarry
@tropic geyser read your damn dms
tropic geyser
I already know why it's important
untold flower
what's a helpful alternative
what deco said
tropic geyser
I'm not discounting anything you're telling me
untold flower
your gpu should be the bottleneck not your cpu
remote kiln
not as much as is needed clearly, if you're relying on bottleneck calculators, you are misinformed
at the end of the day if you don't you won't be able to inform yourself on what you're buying
so I'm just trying to make you look out for your own money
untold flower
so true bottleneck calculators are just garbage tbh if youre using them you dont know alot about computer hardware
remote kiln
but you do you
tropic geyser
<@188816031907708928> read your damn dms
I already uninstalled the game :/
tropic geyser
<:2joeLaugh:962378252926746704> so true bottleneck calculators are just garbage ...
admittedly a lot of it doesn't entirely make sense to me, I just learn where everything goes
chilly jacinth
you can download it again
tropic geyser
and I try to learn what would work well with what
remote kiln
never try to do stuff on the go
these are physical pieces of hardware, it costs you your time, money and effort
tropic geyser
but problem is when I did research things back when I built it I can never find definitive information
remote kiln
like this situation you're in right now
untold flower
and I try to learn what would work well with what
look at hardware reviews not use a bottleneck calculator
tropic geyser
this situation I wouldn't consider a bad one
untold flower
and dont look at userbenchmark either
remote kiln
it's a pretty bad situation by all metrics
tropic geyser
my computer as it is has performed to the standard I've wanted for the past 3 years
it's not like I can't break 40fps on high end games
remote kiln
and if you did the necessary prep work back then to know that this would be an eventuality, you wouldn't have bought it
so try not to repeat dissolving your money

robust vapor
I doubt about this picture I sent
remote kiln
so things can change but those are your options right now
robust vapor
But whatever it is both of them are way better than your current one
tropic geyser
I could have definitely bought a better cpu when I last built a pc
I went for this one specifically because of what research I did do I thought this would be the better one that would prevent bottlenecking from either the gpu or cpu
since you can't have one more powerful than the other
untold flower
just get a more powerful cpu
remote kiln
you live and you learn I guess, all you can really do in this situation
untold flower
you want your gpu to be the bottleneck
remote kiln
it's not worth his money to just upgrade the processor
he is on coffee lake's chipset, he can only buy one generation
untold flower
yeah i meant when he makes his new pc
remote kiln
he needs a new motherboard
tropic geyser
mhm
remote kiln
if you're getting the 4070 you will need resizeable BAR which the 9th generation does not have, so he can't just upgrade the processor on that chipset
tropic geyser
doing research yourself is difficult because you always find conflicting information
like how multiple times I saw it mentioned that the cpu could bottleneck the gpu
untold flower
pcmr is a nice place to ask people
remote kiln
it happens, learn and try not to repeat them is all you can do
chilly jacinth
like how multiple times I saw it mentioned that the cpu could bottleneck the gpu
yes that can and will happen
tropic geyser
so you shouldn't get a cpu more powerful than the gpu?
remote kiln
no, you're asking the wrong question
chilly jacinth
full firerate
remote kiln
it's not about what one is more "powerful"
they're separate pieces of hardware, and they perform differently for games
if it's too confusing then under the condition you are getting a 4070 get a 13600k or a 7800x3d to not overcomplicate things
tropic geyser
alright, thanks

It tends to be up close so often that the penetrable windshield was a major balancing factor
now its just "oh theres a bolte next to me, guess ill leave"
especially since I almost never have AT stuff on me
except if I have the AK or SFAR

the windows are relatively small on it, I think being able to shoot out the driver was fair
itd have to be pretty close anyways
radiant prism
yeah
solid plume
like okay maybe just tint the windows, so you cant easily see and target the driver, or shrink the window models some 10-20% idk like so many different design ways to go about it
but instead they just make it bulletproof
this is the problem I have with their 'balancing'
it's all one way or nothing

anyone knows why my game is crashing like that? it only happens in breakthrough chaos, any other mode works just fine

Oh boris's turret is too strong? okay -50% damage
oh the jeep turret is too OP? okay +100% cooldown
like everything seems to operate on a moving slider of adjustments that only has 25% increments, there's no fine tuning of everything.
they get enough complaints and they just click the slider a few times one way or the other and say 'boom done'

As long as it's better than a console it's good enough

There is only 4K 60 for current gen consoles on BF2042

4k is honestly bout as far as anybody needs to go, 8k gonna just be a gimmick

As long as it's better than a console it's good enough
On console I run at about 90 fps

Which game is that?

8k useful for like 60" and larger tv's but otherwise skip it
sullen quarry
I'm strictly talking bout 2042
calm bison
There is only 4K 60 for current gen consoles on BF2042
Unless you’re playing on Series S 
Series S can manage 60 FPS no problem
But 4K ain’t in the package
sullen quarry
Unless you’re playing on Series S <:yeshoney:1029055092093112320>
It's not too bad

Sure

if ur on a budget, console all the way
pc dominates but you can't ignore the price difference
calm bison
The series S can only upscale to 4K and 2042 has it locked in at a certain resolution
Even still

1080p is the baseline for modern resolutions

It depends on the games in question. BF2042? Definitely a 3070, or at the absolute least a 1070.

Waste of resources that could instead be going to adding new maps or weapons, or if DICE reconsider it, a new specialist?

i was fed up th emoment they announced it. just a lazy attempt at "new" content when in reality, they could've pumped out actual new content. now we just have the same content we had at launch, just slightly better?

Looks like hits to the nose of the aircraft are either death or no damage depending on angle of impact, belly hits are instadeath, wing hits don’t do much but they do rotate the aircraft around it, and rotors have no hitbox

which is what holds the rotor blades

the rotor blades itself has no hitbox
Engines are also iffy (on the Condor specifically)

The tops of them by the intake are questionable about registering hits

idk about that chief but I'll take the kill

that's where you strike for maximum damage
I’ve noticed while bullying Hinds that the wings and nose gun take extra damage vs the rest of it as well
robust vapor
one less pilot

For a whole 90 seconds or so
Until someone else grabs the apache flies it to C and abandons it

pretty sure the front of the hind has less armor compared to its torso
