Dunno for me the game is beautiful

for me the game isnt very beautiful cause I have mostly mnedium / low settings and get 35-45FPS

Get reshade and go to Nexusmods.
cursive summit
I don't even reshade either 
crisp granite
The game looks gorgeous af
mhm, the RT set to the psycho settings with maxed settings is awesome

I tried using reshade once, and that was to hack in R6S by improving visibility

Doesn't DLSS shit itself in Cyberpunk?
I heard the game's quite dark so DLSS hates the fuck out of it
As in I saw pics where DLSS didn't have a clue what to do

I mainly noticed texture pop in sometimes
when scoped into the overwatch in the badlands
so almost never
literally twice iirc
besides, comrade's hammer is insane
not worth toting any other weapon around
even a super powerful sniper rifle

No interest in using OP weapons to me
I hate games that are too easy but also too hard

Cyberpunk keeps me interested with melee

that's why I just use mantis blades and a overture
I find that just using those weapons offer a decent challenge

The speakers on the TV crackle when there is no sound playing
It's a loud irritating electric buzz
Any idea how to fix?
cursive summit
Sounds normal
Maybe too loud?
Could be interference
Like too many things that use radio waves next to it
cursive summit
I know you could place stuff like phones next to speakers and they would buzz
Not an expert on that one, sorry hun
wheat plume
The only thing connected to the internet near the TV is the chromecast
I'll have to show mom how to use that thing when I'm not here....
AGHHB
So she isn't blasting her phone speaker at top volume anymore
cursive summit
Chromecast?
wheat plume
Maybe that's what caused the buzzing on the television speakers......
cursive summit
Why not a roku?

Being played so loudly all the fucking time

Roku needs internet
She no have internet when I'm not at home
Chromecast have the guest mode

wheat plume
IDK much about those
wheat plume
Hmmmm
young pecan
SFF HTPC.
By far the best option.
Grab a second hand Vega enabled NUC and switch the drive.
More than enough for basic HTPC use.
Or if you live in the US get an Apple TV and install shadow.tech on that bitch.
cursive summit
Meh a roku stick is like 40$
cursive summit
Not everyone has options that you can afford
I ain't spending a lot of money for a SFF PC anytime soon
young pecan
Ruthless economy PC can be had for about $200.
Corner a bunch of idiots and scour the Facebook marketplace.
You’d be amazed.
cursive summit
I know the prices around FB marketplace
young pecan
Or get yourself an old Dell Poweredge for $30 and put a cornered 1050 into there for a total of $100.
I’ve done that before.
cursive summit
Meh I still have my A4-5400 from the good old days
With a motherboard
Too bad that shit prolly will crap itself from 4K video
young pecan
Mhmm.
But some 2nd gen Dell Poweredge systems are plenty powerful enough.
You got any idea what an i7 2600 can do? That CPU eats voltage and spits out cycles.
Just need graphics, and while expensive if you feel like being a complete asshole you can find someone gullible and spend a few days cornering them.
cursive summit
So what's wrong with a roku stick?
I don't want extra power cables for a SFF PC
You plug that shit straight into the TV and voila
The TV is also wall mounted
At 2m height
With no TV table anywhere near
I really don't see a need for a SFF PC
wheat plume
I learned an interesting fact
The Sky Q boxes UI is powered by QT
That's actually pretty neat
pale sigil
@wheat plume did the Sky Q not give that away? xD
timid chasm
hrm...I'm skeptical
vagrant marsh
Yea. Speedfan is too outdated. I wouldnt recommend it at all nowadays
old marlin
It didn't even support my Z170 motherboard a couple years back
Which at that time was a few years old already
zenith sonnet
FUCKING HELL
timid chasm
I wouldn't use speedfan if anything else did what I needed as easily but not much lets me set specific temps and fan curves across the system
timid chasm
Especially since all my fan curves are based on my gpu temp. Sadly the motherboard doesn't do that with the curves. Only cpu and whatever sensor they have sitting on the motherboard
No idea why it lost access to the sensors but I also don't restart my Pc hardly ever. It works fine for the most part
ez fix, I guess
vagrant marsh
On gigabyte mb's i can put fan curves n stuff iin bios. With their own software inside windows too but i cant be bothered to install bloatware
timid chasm
I'd be surprised if they let you base the fan curves on the GPU temp
Asrock lets me do a bios fan curve too but not how I want
vagrant marsh
Ok
hollow mango
On gigabyte you can plug in an external temp sensor and use that to control the fan curve

So happy with it other than no usb c header

B450 TUF gaming or something
pale sigil
Tempted to find a converter
cursive summit
I kinda want to go with an X570 or something for a shit ton more USB connectors
thick elk
I personally would not care about having USB-C on rear IO right now, front port could be useful though.
ashen spindle
get a b550 aorus pro for usb ports
pale sigil
The mobo usb c is being used
ashen spindle
I got mine for like 60 below msrp 
ashen spindle
nah just pro
cursive summit
More expensive for no valuable gain? 😄
cursive summit
I don't see anything wrong with jiggybyte
I had two, and neither failed
ASUS though, failed on the first mobo I had from them
I never liked them either way
pale sigil
Had to many boards with issues and so has my family and friends
Big hope
I get everything is different for people
ashen spindle
sample bias zzz
thick elk
Gigabyte is okay, just have to make sure you save bios profiles to usb when you oc with it and don't don't come near any of their software.
cursive summit
I only went with ASUS routers cause they have some kind of special homebrew software for them
pale sigil
And usually i don't judge a brand from experience
Except razer haha
I stopped liking MSI GPUs but I came full circle this time xD
I miss EVGA so much but I do love my GPU regardless
Also i hate my pc already @ashen spindle
ashen spindle
pale sigil
I just wanna hide it xD
pale sigil
Oh lord
thick elk
AS for quality / doe, their very bottom of the barrel motherboards have been quite bad in the past.
Building / installing a decent number of cheap office systems at work I did notice gigabyte was the only manufacturer where I had more then 1 doa mobo.
Despite using around twice as many asrock boards. the total is about 60 systems. in 2014-2017
pale sigil
Oh dear god
pale sigil
Gigabyte boards on the higher end are the very bottom of the barrel though
Oh
Oops you meant that
ashen spindle
AS for quality / doe, their very bottom of the barrel motherboards have been qui...
which is once again showing it doesn't matter what a company does in other parts/previous years 
if 9/10 boards are shit for your entire lineup can still mean you have 1 great one
thick elk
Very much agree, even with a decent number of systems it's very hard to make a call.
ashen spindle
sure for server market when you bulk order and more care about reliability etc. that can be an extra factor to consider
but that goes both ways
pale sigil
Anyone want a 5600x 
ashen spindle
10 year of reliability doesnt mean the prodcut in year 11 is 100% stable
see intel roadmaps
thick elk
While that is certainly true, 10 years of being unreliable does give at least some indication about year 11.
ivory geyser
points at Model-Ms from 80s still chugging on happily
ashen spindle
Yeah hence it’s a factor to consider but no guarantee
thick elk
Definitely.
ashen spindle
Like I like my asrock board for my 8600k but most of their boards are trash, before and after
reef patrol
Hah. ASRock makes awesome boards.
misty saffron
What's wrong with Razer though
quality, price
cursive summit
What? 😄
thick elk
All of the 4 major consumer motherboard brands have their ups and downs but none are generally better or worse than others.
cursive summit
Price is good for what they offer though
ashen spindle
Well with trash I also meant good boards that are way pricier than their quality should be
cursive summit
Kraken X
Quality is also not half bad
Build quality sometimes is quite good
My Abyssus survived for a long time
misty saffron
so you have to rely on “sometimes” to get good build quality
cursive summit
Dunno the products I had were a good experience
thick elk
Wasn't the b550 lineup at least decent in some parts. same goes for other AMD lineups.
As far as I know they just stopped caring about intel.
cursive summit
Abyssus V2 I had for 3 years till the middle click broke
So I replaced it with the Basilisk Hyperspeed just for the middle click
ashen spindle
Not really iirc the taichi is good but most are just more expensive than equal counter parts
misty saffron
Like I like my asrock board for my 8600k but most of their boards are trash, bef...
my asrock x570m pro4 is quite good actually
cursive summit
But experimental software helped
misty saffron
haven’t had an issue related to the motherboard ever
cursive summit
Headphones I got no complaints for, very sturdy metal build quality for Krakens
Sound is what you can expect from a gaming headset
ashen spindle
Keyword most
like they have perfectly good boards, but if the msrp is 50$ above in the 200$ category, and you can get 1-1 the same features on another brand
then idk why to get that unless regional pricing is just broken
cursive summit
Razer motherboards 
thick elk
I do agree that for a large portion of their linup Asrock is a bit behind right now.
cursive summit
That'd be a sight to behold
All black with green accents mobos would kinda look sick though
thick elk
They do exist, only bundled with laptops or phones
of course they don't make those themselves.
But neither does NZXT
reef patrol
I do agree that for a large portion of their linup Asrock is a bit behind right ...
In uh...what way? Last I checked my Velocita has everything. Including 2.5gbit 
reef patrol
Razer motherboards <:thonk:568526682110296066>
It exists... sadly.
thick elk
As far as I know ASrock is moslty behind on the vrm department. IO wise they compete a bit better.
ashen spindle
b550 or x570 velocita?
reef patrol
Can't speak for the entire lineup but my Velocita has the fancy VRM setup. 14 phases et cetera
B550 of course. X570 is a joke and a gimmick.
ashen spindle
iirc that is mostly the same as a steel legend but a bit more expensive? and not as good for memory OC bc it lacks layers
like it's not a trash board, you can just get better at the same bracket usually
ashen spindle
like what does it offer the b550 aorus pro doesn't have?
reef patrol
Better RGB software for one.
ashen spindle
ok sure, that is something I dont pay attention to at all lol
reef patrol
The Auros Pro is definitely a good deal though.
I just find the eagle logo obnoxious personally. And they often make it impossible to hide.
cursive summit
B550 or X570 Aorus Pro though
ashen spindle
look we both know looks aren't part of the discussion bc that makes comparisons impossible :p
cursive summit
X570 Aorus Pro has 2 extra USB connectors
reef patrol
I flat out ignore 570. There's just not enough payoff for the added cost and dealing with a South ridge fan (on most models)
The added gen4 is such a niche thing for general consumers.
sinful bramble
for now it is
we can't even saturate gen3
unless ur using more lanes than the mainstream chips have
in general
reef patrol
With NVME's we can. But again. Niche crowd.
ashen spindle
and given gen5 is fairly close, yes, no point to get it now if you dont need it right now
reef patrol
I suspect by the time 570 becomes mainstream relevant, we already have at least one new B type chipset
If ever.
sinful bramble
yep, the cost of nvmes mean that u can just go pricier board and it's irrelevant
ashen spindle
also new socket so not like it matter for future gens anyway
sinful bramble
gen5 is coming surprisingly fast given how long gen 2 and 3 lasted
ashen spindle
meh not really
it comes faster bc now it's needed sooner
no point making new complicated stuff 5 years+ before it can even be used
sinful bramble
it's surprising to me it was needed sooner
ashen spindle
ah ok
sinful bramble
i think the way the latest cpus are selling
and the constraint with supply meeting demand
they will delay new chips unless intel comes with something rly good
why not milk the market
get a bit more returns
refine the new product more, or 1 after
ashen spindle
doubt it, would cause delays in server market and a solid roadmap is what they need to get more share there
reef patrol
Intel has chips landing any day now. But it's more 14nm refresh that runs even hotter yet.
ashen spindle
yeah in march
sinful bramble
they can release the server side and just delay the consumer grade chips
ashen spindle
not with the current strategy where it's very similar chips but lower bins going into consumer space
would mean they sit on stock doing nothing
ashen spindle
also, sure intel might be slow atm, why risk long term things for barely any short term profit, since you should work under the assumption 7nm, works for them, you cant be 100% sure that tsmc 3nm has no issues etc.
and ARM coming up more and more, don't want to lose markets to arm bc you only focus on intel chips
sinful bramble
arm is a problem
for the x86 makers
if we get anything good out of apple
is that warning
and amd already got the mcm/chiplet thing going
now all we need is a coule high freq cores
then lower cores
and we are basically making mobile chips for desktop grade
pale sigil

Sweet jesus. Just buy a USB card xD

that meme makes no sense since aorus has more usb ports than almost any other option

The placement of those antennas though... oof.

ashen spindle
so if they themselves don't listen in someone else will, idk if that changes much really

Oh thats what you meant

U.K posh people say p's so I got used to the slang

honestly, if i noticed a big difference from my mx50 to AKG K612PRO ill be happy to keep them

cause the flaws on the HE400i were never addressed and are just unforgiveable
my brothers earpads break ever few months
the fix is "lol just get sundaras"

I'd get the Focal Elex
old marlin
the fixture for the grates gets loose in a short amount of time
old marlin
which can make them rattle at certain frequencies
cursive summit
That's a loot of money
old marlin
fix is "lol just buy sundaras"
the sockets for the cables can easily get a loose connection
and I don't think I have to tell you what the fix is
I would like Quad ERA-1
or some LCD2s
but don't earn that kinda money atm

Anyone has experience listening to the Focal Elex?

I just hope the AKG K612PRO aren't as dogshit as the CALs for gaming

AKG K612PRO are better in terms of sound
and the 40 quid difference i couldn't justify

also
880 is not super great
at handling bass
im really confused
as to why the beyerdynamic DT 990 PRO is cheaper than the 880
lol
pale sigil
Does in price
pale sigil
So like the MX50s then
old marlin
aka more focus in bass and then bigger treble peak
pale sigil
Most people buy them cos streamers use them

Some real chinese creativity.
You plug in a dongle that sucks power out of the phone but no data... and then uses bluetooth to plug in 3,5mm audio xD
old marlin
sounds like something very chinese
or apple 
iOS devices transmit data over cables not by just pushing data over it but by establishing a network port and then just puishing data over that
pale sigil
u fuckin wot
the info page for my mobo says 2x USB 3.2 GEN 1 ports
but the manual says 1
old marlin
that is why they always have a random network port open
pale sigil
i have thunderbolt which is cool i guess
ashen spindle
I'm willing to bet it says 1x and 1x at another spot
bc they seperate it depending where it comes from

Maybe he's looking at the wrong revision in the motherboard page

One header, two ports.
Except USB-C
Those need all of the bandwidth for a single port at full performance.
pale sigil
Well
Ok then
thats that solved
lol
Guess i cant even use a converter

i hate having a wasted USB C port
haha
ashen spindle

pale sigil

But wouldn't that not happen with any cpu?
reef patrol
Naw.
ashen spindle

wheat plume
Cause they only used that cpu
ashen spindle
then read the sentences above it
where they go into more detail
and say it only runs hot with high end cpus

TLDR; The 3900X is a VERY hungry CPU. So it pulls all the power it can through those poor power controllers.
pale sigil
Shall i ruin my system with this
wheat plume
What that
reef patrol
This isn't the case with a 3600X.
wheat plume
It adds usb A and C via pcie
Wow ok
reef tundra
That is the way, young pedawan
reef tundra
