I just know it
you dont know shit

how big is the north
mid
i have never seen fractal cases irl
smaller than S2
well the new ones at least
nah i think i paid 120
the wooden parts in front how are they
Glued on lol
They are just for looks
are they smooth and polished ? no nicks and stuff
Yeah
They feel like nice wood from not shitty furniture
Smoother than your average IKEA wood surface, but not glass like
thats cool
i think the wood would be the easiest thing to fuck up in mass production
the 5060 leaked with 8gb of GDDR7 vram

nvidia testing the public IQ or what
Beginner card gets beginner vram
How would you force people to buy higher tiered cards otherwise?
10 for 5070, 14 for 5080, 20 for 5090
Then you do 12 for 5070ti, 16 for 5080ti
i mean it was leaked that there was a consumer card with 48gb vram
most likely a 5090 or a 5090 ti
that would be insane ngl
4000$ price tag
48gb vram seems like shit ton
4000? pump those rookie numbers up
i highly doubt they will charge 2000$ extra for 24more gb of ram
Perhaps 48gb of HBM
GDDR7
Would truly be a titan class and not what nvidia has just covered up as -90
i mean its kinda hard to imagine 5060 ti and below with 8gb of vram
all 5060 ti and above will have 16gb of vram
i mean the 4060 TI being 16gb while the 4070 being 12gb was weird enough
weird ass bitbus sizes
if nvidia is generous (lmfao) they will go down with a 12gb 5060, 16gb 5060 ti and 5070-ti, 24gb for the 5080 and 48gb for the 5090
8gb for the 5050
people need to keep in mind that GDDR7 comes in 3gb chips btw
and the lowest spec for it is 16gbs so who knows
nvidia will use GDDR6 for low end gpus?
lol what is this
why are people so mad about a place holder
god here it begins
I wish I did my part instead of panic buying because what I wanted was out of stock π’
We all started somewhere
Your next upgrade should be amd gpu just don't get the latest and greatest
Amd have a history with issues on launch then with time they all be fixed and u even get more performance
Yeep
Mac or windows for game
templeos
Form which country you are!
No nothing abt that
Ok
Budget till 30 thousand dollar sufficient for pc
one day
just one day
AMD cards arent that good for blender sadly
or adobe crap ass apps
as on the gayming side the only thing missing from AMD cards is DLAA
i love DLAA so much
its almost in everygame now
U mean DLSS?
Hmmm
Hmmm
Hey chat I've gathered everything for a gaming PC. I've heard someone talk about a PC wizard that installs computers. Where do I find this wizard and what spell does he cast to make this work?
Are you high I can't click it what π
That's not how you find a wizard, you need to go on a quest or find a old lamp to rub and ask the genie to take you to one
Was there no 3600MHz ram available around the same price?
Any wizard will do, they all know each other and will summon the right one for a price I'm assuming.
I don't know what you mean
3200 is fine, but 3600 is optimal for that gen cpu
Oh you're the guy with the motherboard box
Do you know how to summon Wizards or no?
I can always upgrade in future. The RAM was one of the least expensive things on this list
It's not worth the money to upgrade to that speed unless you're also going up in capacity, because you can only get so much faster on that platform before you start making compromises.
I was just wondering, as the price usually differs by like $2-4
Just wondering if it was in stock*
It's my first build. I went by a friend's suggestions
Ah
@brave field you said you were interested in the build so pinging
Tldr
Cpu in mobo
Nmve in mobo
Memory in mobo
Cooler on cpu in mobo
Mobo into case
Psu into case
Wire power and front io
Gpu into mobo
Try boot
Assuming you got a case
forgot a drive with windows on it
usb stick with an OS on it
if you have another system you can install windows directly on SSD
Boot bios i mean
is it my fault that it's basically the only case with inverted/invertable layout?
be quiet had one at the time but i didn't like it visually
Main reason I grabbed my Nvidia GPU. Frame Gen and DLAA are pretty cool features. Literally just free FPS with frame gen with no visual impact (at least to my naked eye)
On an unrelated note, is anyone here familiar with thermostats? Specifically "ecobee" branded ones
the O11 isnt bad if people build in it with the correct layout
the O11 have a set of unique problems all realted to the GPU cooling
the correct laytout is
(Bottom: Intake, Top: exhaust, Back: exhaust, Side: AIO set to intake)
it also needs to be vertically mounted
i have both top and bottom as intake with aio on the side set to exhaust
also it doesnt do well with founders edition and blower cards
i can't (or maybe can but don't wanna) set the side to intake because i have a curtain right there and i'm afraid it might get succed towards the case and block the intake
which is a tall ask for slow computer fans but i still don't wanna risk it
is your gpu vertically mounted
no
ah

well can u use frame gen in all games?
well if your temps are good you dont need to change a lot
ew its a bot talking to me
we all bots here
@arctic yarrow is one
100%
u dont know why tho but its in the past
do u play any other games
?
playing once human now
π
I have side intake to bring a draft into the back panel area, and aio exhaust out the top
XL version, tho
whats XL
Lian Li O11-Dynamic XL
i got nvidia because i was obsessed with cyberpunk at the time and wanted more fps (I was constantly hovering 40s with what I had installed), but then I "dropped" the game within a year 
the problem with the AIO at the top is that it dumps the GPU heat in it
I know, but the air from the gpu is barely any warmer than the ambient after the other fans move the air around
yeah i think what iam talking about relates to higher end devices
my cpu gets hot regardless of what the gpu is doing, anyway π
your hardware acceleration is off
can anyone who got netflix check if the new spongebob movie is available in 4k
Hi Ajay :)
i guess ill be going with a 10 year old server then as getting a new Xeon/EPIC will be wayyy too expensive. plus i dont need a whole lot of processing power. The virtual network devices mostly have to run control-plane, little to no data-plane traffic.
hi Gauss
Why are you putting me in cursive
chifi xeon boards don't support more than 256 iirc
That was ages ago
and i imagine ebay supermicros are expensive
Well.. i am just now looking at discord after those Ages
@agile siren check dms
the new spongebob movie isnt 4k
the first ever spongebob movie to not have a 4K release
this is what streaming took from us
"Usually on big budget films my roles were more involved in the creation of the animation. Iβve worked for over 20 years as an animator and later as VFX supervisor. On this project I got to do the final checks and fixes on the animated shots. In my department we used a variety of software like Maya 3D, ZBrush, Nuke and Mush3D."
stick em all up your ass
i looked around and a 10 year old Dell poweredge barely fit my budget.
i only have as much budget as u would need to build a high end gaming PC.
if i didnt needed 512GB of RAM, i would have gone with a gaming PC with 128 or 192GB of RAM.
i watched the movie, glad it didnt get a 4k release
Can confirm. Am bot.
BTW, the program "lossless scaling" on steam does frame gen too. It's $7.
I haven't tested it extensively, but it is a hit or miss with some games. It works exceptionally well on Tarkov, but is garbage on Ready or Not.
more like a hacker
I'm not nearly skilled enough for hacking. I just run scripts and make small python programs.
Thanks for the vote of confidence tho.
atleast i dont send people fake nitro links
and then doxs the account when they cant buy u nitro
Yeah, I tried it too
In some games, I managed to get a 30-40fps increase
You might have me confused with someone else. The last time I've sent someone a nitro link was 2 years ago, and it was for winning a game.
well that was me
buy me nitro or you'll be doxed
i have to say i like ur fake birtish accent
Unless you were on another discord account 2 years ago, I don't think so.
well u will remember if i sent u the picture of the account
win-shift-s to do a screen snip btw, should be easier than printscreen and mspaint
or 13 idc
Yeah, it's crazy. 40fps on tarkov, using the x3 frame gen option brings it up to 120fps.
As long as I turn off vsync it feels really responsive too.
i tried using it before
it doesnt work most of the time for me
talk about an unlucky stream of games
@uneven herongood stuff!
What games does it not work on from your experience?
it didnt work on some unity titles
mostly indie games
Gotchu. What hardware do you have?
3060 TI
Thanks but it's a royal pain
Got it to boot up though
and a 10400F
Gotcha, so definitely not lower end hardware
It's probalby how the game is made then
last time i tried it was like 3-4 months ago with Raft
Or the software is not at a point of working with everything yet.
it does work but it heavily depends on the game
it doesnt seem related to a game engine either
Yeah, because Tarkov runs off unity and it works really well on it, while your examples of it not working at all are also unity games
Anyone know how long it takes to flash bios?
like 5 minutes for me
If your power supply was modular, you can swap out that gpu power cable for a straight one instead of one with the little daisy chain so it can look neater
Don't hate on the chunky PSU, he has feelings 
tbf most power psu units don't come with gpu cables with no daisychained connectors
Imagine if EVGA came back but with AMD gpus
speaking of evga, my previous psu was evga and it didn't have cables with daisychained cables
but it had 6οΈβ£ gpu cable connectors 
Nah def not worth to spend any amount of money on it
Even FSR3 frame gen is better than lossless scaling
What if frame generation was available for every game and worked on Intel, Nvidia and AMD GPUs? And what if you could actually have TWO interpolated frames instead of just one? And how about some high quality scaling options included in the mix too? That's the pitch for Lossless Scaling - an inexpensive scaler with intriguing frame generation ca...
yeah but not all games support xedlfsrss
Yes lossless scaling is only good for older titles
New fsr framegen 2 on amd cards improved a lot and i can enable it on any game
Lossless is still a bit better in terms of quality tho because it's using machine learning but that's also a downside for some because it needs some GPU utilization.
Or are u talking about fluid motion frames 2?

Yes
Fsr and fluid motion frames is different
Yeah mb
Fluid motion doesnt have motion vectors either just like lossless
I used it yesterday in once human and it's good
What's interesting is that i dropped power usage significantly

but the game is awful
so using that doesn't make it any better 
How is it awful?
Digital Foundry should have compared lossless scaling with afmf

Should also work fine in Elden Ring since fps is capped to 60
U can cap fps using AMD chill
I'd rather use rtss anyday
Same
I meant fps are locked to 60 in elden ring but with lossless scaling u can use 2x Frame Gen mode to get 120fps
I've been using chill for years because it drops fps while my pc is idling which in turn drops power usage and then less heat in the room
This feature should be in all games or at least drivers and now only seen like AMD drivers and somewhat similar implementation in call of duty where it drops your fps in menus and drops it even more if the game window is not the active one (alt+tabbing)
Rtss is good yeah but occasionally it crashes games
I use nvidia control panel to cap fps since rtss was crashing gta online
Is this a new thing in nvidia driver?
Lol no its an old feature
U can also have diff frame rate cap depending on the game
Like 60fps cap in gta and lets say 72 in forza
U can do that in amd as well.. like having a profile for each game like fsr, fps, frame gen, power and even overclock
But amd chill has two settings... max fps and idle fps. Which needs to be wide spread in all games and drivers imo
When you are not moving as in when the game doesn't detect an input from the user
It slowly drops fps to whatever you specify
Interesting
ok but how does a gpu know if i'm inputting inputs

Why am I not able to download watch dogs 2 from xbox app pc
It always says content failed to load
@exotic patrol
I don't know much about the Xbox pc app but I'd say try to reinstall it along with the Xbox identity provider and clear the cache
Oh okay
L
waiting for the day amd is no longer shit for rendering so that i can finally have actually useful amounts of vram without paying out the ass
I think u also need ubisoft connect
Then link your xbox acc with it
I have
I have already connected
Still

Also enabled the ubisoft extension
Logout and login to xbox gamepass maybe
Even windows version of Forza has lot of problems π
Meanwhile steam version works perfectly fine
π i just wanna replay wd2
I purchase yearly pass for xbox
So I'm wasting my money not using it
All poop games on xbox pc
πΏ
With gamepass u also get EA play pass
No rdr2 , god of war , street fighter and others

What's the good ea game
Nfs heat was fine tho
Xbox on pc is awful
Literally all the online games i tried on it sucked like forza 4,5 and snowrunner
Snowrunner was a different kind of fuckery where u keep disconnecting for no reason and your progress reset 
That might be a skill issue Iβm afraid
No other options
I was thinking of trying cod on gamepass since i have 3 free months then i remembered that it's on the Microsoft store so π
Lmao

Eggsbox
I dunno, I think it's useful for what I'm doing, and $7 ain't a ton in the grand scheme of things.
OH! I wonder how well it works on Fallout 4! anything higher than 60fps usually breaks the physics, so maybe lossless scaling would visually increase the framerate without breaking the physics
Lossless scaling is only good for old games
How old? My perception is flawed where I still think games like Fallout 4 are "new".
Better to watch this vid

Ah hell nah, Daddy Gelsinger is a religious fanatic?
I don't get it
I wish I could say literally anything about my gpu in here, but it feels like I'm just held at gunpoint like I made the wrong purchase
Omg did you buy a 4060ti

the guy with next to no specialized equipment is one of the top performers of the competition
if it's an amd card and you only use it for gaming, then it's fine
but i do 3d work, and an amd card might as well be 20 years old in comparison to nvidia's cards
It's funny, cause the Nvidia card I got has the same if not better performance than the old AMD card I had, but also has the perks of, if I want to do things other than gaming, too, I can do so
@nova steppe I guess there's not really much need for OC on my system
unless I just bump it up more and see if it improves (left is stock, right is with the OC I had from last night)
Looking at his twitter feed, it looks like he posts bible verses every few days, so it doesn't appear to be related to the stock dipping.
So he IS a religious fanatic? :(( I expected better from him
Did you check before the release of the first ryzen processors
No, but given the fact he also has a christian ministry set up since 2013, I wouldn't be surprised if he posted bible verses before then.
Bro predicated AMD since 2013 and started shitting his pants since
What the fuck is a Christian ministry
An organization or effort aimed at advancing the christian faith and/or values.
So for the time spy test, it was a ~200pt increase
i can help you tune it, if you want

Amadeus is walking me through it all π

I really want to clean my pc but i cant

And i sometimes have to reset the bios up to 50-70 times in a row for it to work again
Most likely an ass motherboard
thaaaat def seems like an undiagnosed issue
have you checked the ram proper? seems odd to target the motherboard first when it's giving the same issue with a specific component
Well it works faster with one ram stick
But the two of them? Just very hard
Doesnt matter what stick
I tried every configuration with the ram sticks i have
This issue just sprouted out of no where too

now what about nvidia
In Latin, invidia is the sense of envy, a "looking upon" associated with the evil eye, from invidere, "to look against, to look in a hostile manner." Invidia ("Envy") is one of the Seven Deadly Sins in Christian belief.
i mean, do we even need to add anything? the nvidia logo looks like an eye, too

If it has a 13th or 14th gen chip, it has the same problem too
1st gen? Is it 20 years old?
I'm just assuming, but nice laptop.

after the Zen 5 release
"well it got lower consumtion" its replacing non X parts
if we compare them to the 65Ws parts the story is even sadder
you dont even need to go that far
the 9600X is slower than the 7600X while consuming more power
thats insane
More or less? The 7600x tdw is 105W
it doesnt use that much in games
but the truth was finally cracked
Zen 5 is heavily made for data centers
apparently its almost 120% faster in data center applications
It's kinda well known for a month ago that the 9000 chips won't be better than the 7000 chips in gaming
i dont know about you but amazon paying amd shit loads of printed american burger coins is more than the 280$ anyone would lol
no one said that
i didnt pay attention to leaks really
Eventually I did
like nvidia and intel leaks, AMD leaks are also probably hype machines fueled by their marketing departments
they are filthy ass corps after all
all i heard was the "10%" faster from everyone including AMD
it was really really sus including AMD working on tsmc 4N which if they didnt do anything at all would have been shitloads better anyways
but its clearly that they scarified consumer speed and efficiently to data centers because money
selling non X cpus as X cpus so they can hoard the real good dies for the eventual X3D chips with insane profit margins and also data center chips

That's silly, they can just...not sell those, no need to pull out the tinfoil hat
thats not the point
I don't get your point then
You're saying they do what gets them the most money?
That's...not a surprise for a public company?
the one secret companies donβt want you to know
it didnt used to be this bad
straight up calling them X cpus
makes me wonder if this generation will even have non X cpus
if the mediocrity level that previous generation can sometimes beat current generation in multiple tasks
will they go even lower?
will filth and greed grow?
find out in the next episode of shitty consumer practices and public technology companies
just become a giant shareholder to solve all the problems then
no

if it's wirelessly charging yeah
Im using a normal charger and its so hot
is it downloading an update
Nothing
check update in settings and see if it is downloading?
mine was likr 40+c while charging and downloading an update a few days ago
go into settings and check the update menu in general
I have an iOS update but itβs not downloading
does it say downloaded?
hmm ok
Should I get it checked out
Cuz I was trying to read one piece and accidentally clicked an ad nd tried to download weird shit on my phone but I clicked off super fast
as long as you dont install a certificate youll be fine
Whatβs a certificate
youll get a settings like page that comes up and it will say 'trusted' in green if its proved by apple or 'not trusted' in red if not approved by apple
it has a trust and a cancel button
theres also a download this certificate page before
it's unlikely though iirc it prompts you like twice before it actually installs
might want to get an adblocker though
Well my phone has since cooled off
I just donβt use that site on my phone anymore but I do have an adblocker on my pc so
that's an option too ig still not a bad idea tho
don't use fast charging if you don't like when your phone gets hot
Optimized charging?
i think that's different 
Thatβs what I have on
also fast charging is bad for the battery
they want you to use fast charging so that your phone's battery dies faster and you get a new phone
IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW
they also make phones out of glass so they r easy to break!

thanks steve 
i had that mobo, lasted like 5 years, still runs my server
suggested it for a friend too, works well
I dont understand the difference between these two devices despite offering the same thing.
For example:
-
USB - 128GB Storage (Password Protected)
-
External Hard Drive - 128GB Storage (Password Protected)
True
one bigger and not be overheated keeping speed
bigger also may just be faster overall
It would be better to get an external hard drive with the largest storage then
not sure what password protection helps with
any storage device can be password protected with an application, or bitlocker for windows
wait a second true!
why would it have a password protected feature in the first place
probably comes with some cheap software on it already that may or may not sell your data

Hello fellow nerds
Let's say I'm trying to repair a lamp
What happens if I mix up + and -
Does it kill the LEDs or does it just not work?
50/50 chance it's the right way
Ig it will not work
Yeah itβs a 50/50 chance imo
Worst case scenario they burn out but honestly thereβs a good chance itβll still work, then again idk what kind of lamp would let you do that in the first place
Uhhh this same lamp?
The kind of lamp that's been tinkered with because I dropped the PSU and it broke
What
Right ok yea its that one, DC so no +/- cant swap, if it was powered on and swapped, the dimmer could die, the LEDS could but unlikely
If the lamp is good it would have a diode to protect it from reversing polarity
It's cheap so it probably doesn't have that
I'll check the AliExpress page if it shows how the lil things are cabled
Or are these standardized?
Is plus the outer ring?
Or inner?
inner
if its followed is a different issue lol

that gif where a guy licked a cable and went a mimir instantly, i'm p sure that was a lightning cable
Thanks babes
Good enough?
The rubber doesn't go into the contact, ends right at the start
Tightened the screws as far as they go
Now electrical tape around and call it a day?
yes
:D
though i would make sure that it works first before wrapping it in duct tape



Get wrapped idiot
if u don't look too close, it almost looks as if it's from the factory
because the moth lamp meme was like six years ago and outdated get a new joke

You can stfu
I asked for advice and you showed up way after advice has been given
aka useless
That's what you get for trying to punch ME

but 
i used one of these to power the mandatory pon router from our landline phone provider
used one of these sleek led power supplies instead of an ugly black brick
Stop simping
I just wanna annoy gus
Plus i gave him much better suggestions
I've seen a lot of them being used for cctv cameras and they all get corroded and very easy to short or slip out of the connector
No you fucking didn't??

you do not need to pay to simp
nope

What does the Qualcomm AptX listing in the QCC3003's specs mean if the supported audio codecs list only includes SBC and AAC?
You know whats funny
Nvidia releasing GPU most likely contributes to AMD cpu profits than anything else
Ryzen + Geforce at home, EPYC + H200 at work

nice server
I have a question
While bad is subjective in its own right, how worse is w11 compared to the predecessor?
Bad
Bad
Like how bad
idk the occasional prompt to upgrade to 11 is gone so that's good enough
One of my friends is on w10 and is sticking to it because of what she heard regarding w11
It's a shitshow compared to win 10
So has this girl heard
I heard stuff about performance and stuff
She has also heard that stuff
The one thing I don't like is the centralized taskbar
I changed it to be left of the screen as soon as I could
I only use w11 cause my laptop has it pre installed
shit bad
never use it
bloated with ass
microsoft recall takes ss of your computer screen every 5 fucking seconds
copilot.. adding ai to ur pc
as why the fuck
just stick with win10 and then move to linux
AI
yeah
Heard about that one
Tbh i dont care about it
All these companies are chasing a golden goose that isnt gonna work in the long term
i mean you should
copilot + recall trains their ai (i think)
makes u lose on performance
id say just dont bother and wait for win10
Still its a golden goose that isn't gonna work in the long term
Win10 wouldn't be supported anymore from next year tho
Or as I heard, you can pay to be supported 
W10 LTSC 2021 is set to last until 2032
Classic Microsoft move
2026
windows 10 end of support before g-
I hate that meme so much
I don't
We got comfy hating memes before gta6
π
Skull before gta 6
Come on guys
we need QSFP in our gpus and monitors immediately
What kind of video needs 800gbit/s

16K 360Β° 3D Videos?
yes
Damn bitch
Barely enough for your mom
Will 16 gb ram work for gta 5
Yes
i'd sure hope so
Not that bad Iβve just disabled all the annoying shit like copilot
It helps that I use win11 education which is just enterprise basically but with substantially less bloat than home or pro
more like cope a lot tbh
not really
Itβs no different from 10 in terms of how I use it it just looks prettier ig
most outdated specs ever
Whats all this bloat
All the preinstalled apps like tiktok
if you used a core 2 quad the game will be 10fps at best in story mode and 2fps in online
moment of silence for another joke lost in translation 
π
So shit basically
shitware yes
yes
@gleaming tapir well you need to upgrade your RAM as well. PSU most likely too.
I got a very fast heatsync with 40 hz
you dont have to, YOU choose on what you upgrade and thats why PC is simply better. If you have for example a PS4 and then PS5 releases but you dont have money for that, at one point games drop support for your console making it pretty much useless while on PC If you buy a game, then you dont have to care about it because the game will be supported on your system for at least 15 years
the only reason to upgrade your ssds is when you want to play cod or you're out of space, otherwise there is no sense
RAM doesnβt stay same 8 years though.
We probably have DDR6 next 8 years 
as I said, you dont have to constantly upgrade your pc whenever a new generation of something releases, my 2017 pc can run games just fine even though the parts are long out of date and almost falling apart
Consoles have backwards compatibility so PS4 games could be supported even on PS6
Well you canβt run every game fine with 2017 PC
I wonder why then for example Minecraft stopped updating PS3 edition If they have backwards compability
PS3 is different things as it uses CELL processor
PS4 onwarfs they swotched to PC hardware
and PC's are modular, so If you are a PS3 owner and wanted to play better games, you have to buy a PS4, a whole new console, while on PC all you have to do is swap 2 parts for new ones and you're done
you dont even have to upgrade your GPU because GTX 1060 has been in use for many years now even though Its old as fuck, its still amazing
Point is not everyone has the ability or knowledge to do that
or will^
People prefer simple things
i have a pc and it's a pain to have to look up issues when games don't work right
Consoles are simple
nowadays building a PC is as simple as lego, there are hundreds of tutorials, hell, when I was building my first pc, I didnt know ANYTHING about building one, yet I was able to build it in like 1 hour. Of course I did have issues with installing fans but after a quick research I was able to pull it off
some parts even have instructions on how to install them
You need to put a lot of money on those PC parts though. So itβs same as you would buy new console 
Performance is a lot better on PC though. Potentially depending on the parts.
you dont have to, as I said, you can start with a shit pc that is worse than a console but then upgrade it at one point to make it even better
or just pay like $500 for one console and then get used games for cheap
There is no point starting with shit PC though as you lose everything where PC is better 
Which is unoocked fps
Or get both console and pc
pay 500$ for a console and then be limited to certain games with no options whatsoever on editing and adding mods
Playing with mods isn't necessary
as if i'd want to add mods to the games I play
But you will still be putting more money on that PC trough the years. Especially now with those GPU prices
yeah i play shit like the old cod games, gears of war and assassin's creed none of which need mods
Also u forgor about monthly subscription just to play online
π
it isnt, but that gives a point on why pc is better
Skyrim is barely even a game without mods
yeah also that
^
Pc easily wins the library battle
ebay 
At least console doesn't have to deal with cheaters 
π€
So it's a double edged sword
Yeah cheating is THE problem with pc
not all games contain that much cheaters, thats a game specific problem
True
Most PC games have some though
CS2, PUBG, GTA V etc.
Anyway best way to play gta is singleplayer mods on pc and console for online 
Street fighter has cheaters on pc and it bleeds into crossplay
or gta online but only in invite only lobbies
That's subjective opinion though
Console wins in some things while PC wins in performance
And PC is more universal so you can use it in a lot of things
not to mention you dont just gotta game on PC
Im playing a shit ton of steam games and the only game I encountered to have many cheaters is GTA, Roblox is also fairly cheater free since Hyperion released, leaving exploiters to android and after so many honeypots and scams Its safe to say that mostly Roblox is cheater-free. Cheating in Minecraft is long gone pretty much, didnt saw any cheater since 2020.
CS2, Rust, PUBG has a lot of cheaters
Though situation is getting a bit better
i thought pubg fell off tbh
Fr
It did fall off, but still doing quite well
Ong
Mostly e sports
Probably same with Destiny 2
PUBG is dead, like I havent heard anything about that game for a few years now so Its obvious Its going to have a lot of cheaters since no one cares about it anymore, CS2 is a new game so Its obvious there is still much work to do, never heard of Rust so I cant say anything about that game
That can be a good thing and a bad thing. At least you should get farily cheater free experience 
plus it's accepted at this point there's no going back

There were even more cheaters on CS:GO though
it's really popular in spanish speaking countries for some reason, my cousin's play it all the time on their phones
The appeal to console for me personally is that I can just pack it up into a duffel bag and then hook it up with 2 cables wherever the hell I went whereas I can't do that as easily with my desktop
Codm is also quite popular 
On console you can sell your games
it's probably the most active mobile game aside from coc now
I miss physical games
I played CSGO for 6 months before it got bored and iirc I only encountered like 12 cheaters or something like that, not much, at the end of the day everyone ganged up on them and we were all killing them, it was fun
Some of my friends have bought a phone specifically to play games
i only buy physical
i stopped caring about mobile games when they became p2w
I was talking about digital only games
Summer steam sale is the best fr
Well you can't win an aimbot 
I did see plenty of those in CS:GO
Yeah, but consoles has physical games too which you can sell 
Idk why anyone would buy digital games on console
Codm aint that p2w surprisingly
U can have fun in it without having to spend any money unless and until you want a specific weapon skin
Series S mostly
Microsoft did a great Sneaky job of silently making people cope with digital

I had ps2 and most of my disks got all scratched up in like a year or 2π
That's user related issue
i'd imagine games like that would be infested with whales, at least that was my experience with gameloft back in the day 
can't encounter modders if you never play with others 
Ranked matches are with actual players
Today GPU cost more than console 
Some mp matches are also with actual players,but at the start u play with bots
I paid 600β¬ for RTX 4070
not wrong
4070 is way more powerful than PS5
i could've bought 4 ps5's for my 4090
Yeah, but still
Going to make PC cost like 1500β¬ 
1000-1500β¬
i mean yeah but it's not like it's wasted money
And Nvidia did scummy
They removed 12gb from 4060 models
To make people with 1440p display go with 4070
RTX 4070 is pretty good as well I would say
RTX 4070ti is pretty pointless though

I need laptop too though 
so you buy both 
I hope Thunderbolt 5/USB4 v2 will come soon
they're changing usb name now?
I would totally make egpu setup next
i thought it would be like usb 4 or smth
Yeah USB4 2.0 is basically USB4 with 80Gps
and potentially 120Gps
It's Thunderbolt 5
i considered the egpu setup but i backed out way too complicated and expensive for macbooks
But USB4 port don't work with USB4 v2
And nowdays it's impossible for Macbooks
When they use those M series chips
yeah but at the time i bought one of the last intel models partly because I planned to have an egpu setup
Oh
it's for the best honestly this thing turns into a stove when running anything intensive on windows lmao
@toxic sentinel a 200$ more expensive than PS5 PC that has one of the best CPU's currently available + a mid-tier gpu
Literally Mid-Tier PC that is only 200$ more expensive than PS5 - AMD Ryzen 5 7600X, Radeon RX 5700 XT
That's pretty good deal
well, PS5 is definetely worse than this pc
and you only pay 200$ more
It depends. PS5 can do ray tracing, but this RX 5700 XT won't.
again, you can upgrade the card later on
this was just an example
Which will make it cost a lot more 
On performance PC pretty much always wins, because of unlocked framerate
slightly more
the cheapest rtx card is rtx 2060
That's shit though
raytracing is over hyped
bro do you think that much people care about ray tracing?
Depends what type of monitor you have. 1440p and you will have to put a lot more money on the GPU.
Depends on the game.
eh sure
Cyberpunk 2077 for example looks so shit when you have been used on ray tracing
i guess its either raytracing in 30fps with the console or no raytracing with 60fps same game
PC vs console argument is still going on
cyberpunk was always laggy from the start
rtx 2060 was made for ray tracing and If you get low fps then blame developers on unoptimized shit code
I did play it 60+ fps with my RTX 4070 (RT Ultra) 
RTX 2060 has first generation RT cores so it just can't do RT
lol yea, it all seems to come to games, but on pc you can do so much more lol, like the argument doesnt even matter
Same with RX 6000 series on AMD
"RT Cores", but cant do RT, π
it def can do RT
^
Well it was first generation so it was pretty much tech demo
basically same level as a PS5
lol
20fps maybe 
If you want to see real tech demo, check out intel 14th gen
Well on console you have better optimization
rtx 2060 was and is an amazing card still but overshadowed by 30 series
Even RTX 3060 was shit on RT
what not to do demo
nuh uh one of my pcs has 3060 and I can run most of the games on ultra graphics with ray tracing without issues
my 3060ti runs RT fine
Which game and what type of RT?
Idk why ppl talk about that consoles have good optimisation when the reality is that PS5 runs Jedi Survivor at 648p native res 
3060ti isn't same as 3060 though 
Try run Cyberpunk 2077 Ultra RT with 3060 and see how it works (I have tried)
for example Minecraft shaders which are known to be very fucking unstable, unoptimized and garbage shit of code, Roblox with ReShade on max settings and some steam games
as I said Cyberpunk was and is shit
That's most impressive RT game though
They have new technology like path tracing
Minecraft has path tracing since 2014 π
It's Minecraft though
I get 60-70fps with path tracing in Cyberpunk and Psycho RT quality
Blocks
still doesnt make pt something new
But with frame gen on
With RTX 3060?
3050
Ahahahahaha
Laptop
Only thing I see is 2020 beta
A beta version of Minecraft RTX is available, delivering astonishing visual effects and the kind of realism in lighting that only path tracing can deliver. To show off the impact that hardware accelerated RT brings to the game, Alex Battaglia builds his own ray traced house of fun, demonstrating the unprecedented realism added to the game.
Our ...
thats for the bedrock edition.
Control also has decent RT implementation
Update 2.0 made the game awesome though
I recommend
meh
Do you use DLSS?
ray tracing in minecraft makes zero sense because the sunlight only shines down at a 90 degree angle basically
People here tryna run ray tracing with 6-8gb vram 
just reminder if you live in the USA you can always get a microcenter bundle which could save you hundreds of dollars
also please for fucking fucks sake people
fucking avoid the fucking NV2 nvmes
The SN570 is 30$ more and it will actually keep your data
also lol a 5700xt
in 2024 π
I was in a rush so I just added what was first
better than GTX 1665
as I said I was in a rush so I didnt look directly at the stats, just at the stars
and I know i shouldnt
let me fix that list
but yk in a discussion you need arguments fast
yea thats ok
