My 2060 can run gta at like 4k at 60 FPS but I run modded Skyrim and I average at 40 FPS 😞

[kindred temple]

Anything above 30 going to kill the physics engine anyway so

[glass silo]

it would have been nice to experience my 341 mods plus 304 plugins in 60fps, atleast I got the 4k down 🙏🏽

[jovial tide]

can anyone here try to do a math multiplication 638*79 in thier head and tell me how much time it took to do that

[arctic yarrow]

I thought that was over 90. Then again, it's the physics engine that needs to be capped, while everything else can be uncapped.

[kindred temple]

hm

[arctic yarrow]

Havok can be independently capped while the rest can run at uncapped frames.

It's in the "Skyrim.ini" file. Depending on the refresh rate of your monitor, you set "fMaxTime" to a certain variable: 0.0083 for 120hz, 0.0069 for 144hz, and 0.0042 for 240hz.

[crude jewel]

Should I use compressed air or paint brush to clean my laptops keyboard?

[lost fossil]

both is best

[crude jewel]

Why is more convenient

I don't want my keys to go flying

Or want the dust to settle under the keys

[lost fossil]

air will clean good but it won't clean it squeaky clean

so u just do both where u apply some canned air while also brushing

[crude jewel]

And do laptop keys come out

Like the generic keyboard

[lost fossil]

they're sturdy but it's better to not blast the air at full power and having the nozzle basically touching the keyboard

[crude jewel]

Okay thanks

Hey im doing math rn and the problem is jimmy sells 3 apples a day how many days will it take him to sell 30 apples

Server ban speedrun? Was that the same as the guy with a dick pic as his pfp talking in casino ps lfg?

[cold elbow]

Not duct tape?

[brave field]

supposedly zip ties are loads better for mounting pressure and keeping things cool at higher temperatures, and I don't want tape residue

No mounting at all cooled surprisingly well last time I booted the system, so if zip ties get annoying, I might end up doing that until I can get a fitting cooler for <$10

[worthy schooner]

@jovial tide See that motherboard here, for example?

If I'm not dead wrong, the black / blue slots are your DIMM slots. That's where your RAM goes.

The reason they're colored like this here, is because they're separated into two channels. So it's:

A1 - A2 - B1 - B2.

Most cases can be opened without tools.

Reaching the motherboard may require some screwing.

But yeah, you're gonna find your RAM in the DIMM slots. Assuming you have 1 x 8GB, all you need is a second 8GB RAM module.

Now here's the critical part:

In order to make use of 2 x 8GB, you need to sort out your slots for dual-channel support.

A1 + B1 would work.
A1 + A2 would not.

Also, this goes without saying but check if your motherboard supports that. 99.9% of the time, they do.

Take this one, as well.

Rank 5 perms.

Gotta wait a bit / talk s'more.

@cold elbow hiiii

[faint crest]

does anyone have any idea about port forwarding via virtual server? I got a strict nat type so I want to manually open the ports for my game network, if someone has experience about it, please dm

[normal python]

Yo who tryin RP fr fr like cmon

[arctic yarrow]

I know how to port forward on a local network.

[faint crest]

I have a dlink router, can you help me?

[faint crest]

Wrong channel my guy

[arctic yarrow]

Sure. do you know your device's IP address?

[jovial tide]

hes already muted

[faint crest]

Yes

[arctic yarrow]

Alright. What's the model number of your dlink router?

[faint crest]

Actually I'll have to sleep now bro 😅 it's 6:35 am here, just dm me i'll do it after waking up

[faint crest]

Where to check it out though, listen bro, I have access to the settings of the router so maybe you can skip this part haha

[arctic yarrow]

The reason why I ask is because some models have a different UI, and I'm using emulators on chasms.

[faint crest]

Oh got it got it

Where to check it ?

[arctic yarrow]

But yeah, I might not be able to assist until tomorrow. gonna sleep in about 4 hours.

Generally speaking, you want to go into security or a similar option, then port forwarding, then forward either a range or a single port for that specific ip address on the external port.

[faint crest]

Nice then haha, i'll be available in about 5 hours from now

[arctic yarrow]

It's also a good idea to set up a DHCP reservation for that specific device.

[faint crest]

I have the virtual server thing on my router settings

There isn't anything named port forwarding

[arctic yarrow]

It should be under advanced, then port forwarding on the left, assuming I'm looking at a similar UI to yours.

[faint crest]

I'll share my screen tomorrow in vc

Hope thatd be more simple

[arctic yarrow]

I'll see if I can find time between work and class.

[kindred temple]

I need anyone help by this stage.

How do i link up 3 monitor running at 1080p144hz to GTX 1660Ti?

Im genuinely running out of idea on how to pull it off.

[arctic yarrow]

@kindred temple How are you currently attempting it?

[kindred temple]

I was thinking to do DP daisychaining because its easy to do, but 24GN600 only has 1 DP ports each. Tried to run 2 monitors thru DP, and then use one of the 2 HDMI ports to link up and of course that dont work.

Tried a passive 1x2 HDMI splitter i had laying around, that didnt work.

I could get DP to DVI but that wont give me 144hz

[arctic yarrow]

AFAIK HDMI 2.0b only supports up to 120hz.

[kindred temple]

Because its DVI single link

[kindred temple]

Runs on 146hz for me

[arctic yarrow]

Hmm, odd

How many ports do you have on the graphics card?

[kindred temple]

1 2.0b, 1 DP 1.4, and 1 DVI single link.

No igpu, its Ryzen 2600.

By this stage i might fucking buy 5600G but then i realize it wont be able to run nvidia surround

MST hubs here are expensive too, 300-400$ each.

If i go that route i might as well buy new GPU.

[arctic yarrow]

Does your card have a usb c port by chance?

@kindred temple

[kindred temple]

Lol i wish.

[arctic yarrow]

How large are your monitors?

@kindred temple So the only options I can see are going with a higher end MST, an MST compatible monitor, another graphics card, or getting that 5600g. I assume you're attempting to game on 3 screens, right?

[kindred temple]

Yeah.

[kindred temple]

24 inches.

[arctic yarrow]

@kindred temple found this MST hub that appears to be capable of 3 1080p monitors at 144hz:
https://www.amazon.com/DisplayPort-UPTab-Adapter-Display-Windows/dp/B081QPVKGY/ref=sr_1_17?crid=346F1Z9HQMO7V&keywords=displayport+1.2+mst+144hz&qid=1643862241&sprefix=displayport+1.2+mst+144hz%2Caps%2C161&sr=8-17

[kindred temple]

Too expensive and parents prefer local provider.

[arctic yarrow]

That's the cheapest option I could come up with. MST monitors at that refresh rate are in excess of $500, a new gpu is obviously too expensive, and the 5600g would cost $200 minimum.

Maybe I can try your local listings. What country are you in?

@kindred temple

[kindred temple]

Indonesia.

[arctic yarrow]

Would Australia be considered local?

[supple walrus]

[kindred temple]

Currently unavail for me

[supple walrus]

hm?

[kindred temple]

Cant see the price

Whats the price?

[arctic yarrow]

It seems to be $79.99

[kindred temple]

56$, 500k.

[arctic yarrow]

I know, still expensive

[supple walrus]

australian i'd wager

[kindred temple]

Im already about to spend 600k on brackets

[supple walrus]

oof

plus shipping would be an issue

[arctic yarrow]

That would be another 20 AUD minimum when doing a quick search.

To clarify, I think that 79.99 is in AUD.

[supple walrus]

Yeah that's what I came up with

18.90

[arctic yarrow]

Well... better than a new gpu, cpu, or monitor.

Probably something to save up a little for.

[supple walrus]

Yup

[kindred temple]

1 million IDR

Still too high for what essentially is an adapter

Is there even some sort of HDMI splitter? @arctic yarrow

That isnt just

Duplication?

[arctic yarrow]

No, HDMI doesn't have that technology

[kindred temple]

Thought so.

[lost fossil]

[arctic yarrow]

6500 is trash if you're not pairing it with a motherboard utilizing PCIe 4.0

[lost fossil]

he's got h610 in the list

[arctic yarrow]

It has a pcie 4.0 x4 interface, so if you use it on a pcie 3.0 board you're gonna lose performance.

Plus the memory interface is 64 bit, which is utter garbage.

[lost fossil]

yeah putting the 6500 in a gen 3 mobo is just please no

[arctic yarrow]

No joke, you lose up to 40% performance by using gen 3.

Honestly, dunno what the hell AMD was thinking, using a pcie 4.0 x4 interface and a 64 bit memory bus (not seen since 2011) when that will almost certainly bottleneck the shit outta the gpu.

This is aimed for budget users mind you, and they are far more likely to use gen 3

[lost fossil]

try to add some more money to get a b660/h670 mobo if possible so that you can activate the xmp profile

Still looking aorund

[lost fossil]

350 for a 1650 good lord

[jovial tide]

alright ty just nofin

[arctic yarrow]

I could look on ebay, but it's gotten really shady lately.

Then again, newegg and amazon have a shitton of scam listings so

[jovial tide]

@arctic yarrow what about this https://www.newegg.com/msi-geforce-gtx-1650-gtx-1650-d6-ventus-xs-oc/p/N82E16814137529?Item=N82E16814137529&nm_mc=AFC-RAN-COM&cm_mmc=AFC-RAN-COM&utm_medium=affiliates&utm_source=afc-PCPartPicker&AFFID=2558510&AFFNAME=PCPartPicker&ACRID=1&ASID=https%3A%2F%2Fpcpartpicker.com%2F&ranMID=44583&ranEAID=2558510&ranSiteID=8BacdVP0GFs-Mct1DfVPCNLj2Xxk.Yg2jQ

[lost fossil]

as we learned this week, newegg 🚮

[arctic yarrow]

That could work, and is cheaper than what I've listed.

[jovial tide]

why

trash

[arctic yarrow]

They're scamming people with non-functioning open-box items.

[jovial tide]

oh

[arctic yarrow]

Then claim you damaged them when you do the rma process.

[jovial tide]

then ill sue them like an american

[lost fossil]

but as steve nexus said, it's probably fine if you found the cheapest deal there

[jovial tide]

plus its 300 dollars 🧢

[lost fossil]

20% off with a promo code?

[vapid grove]

I paid 260 for a 1660S before all of this nonsense.

I want to be off this ride.

[arctic yarrow]

Used 1060 here:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/224822849645?hash=item34587c706d%3Ag%3AwSIAAOSwJd9h~U~5&LH_BIN=1

[jovial tide]

@arctic yarrowim sorry but not buying from ebay

[arctic yarrow]

Seller has been an ebay member since 1999 and has a 100% feedback rating with 1061 ratings.

[jovial tide]

https://pcpartpicker.com/product/sJvbt6/evga-geforce-gtx-1650-4-gb-sc-ultra-gaming-video-card-04g-p4-1057-kr this good?

@arctic yarrow how is 1060 better then a 1650

[arctic yarrow]

Probably 2gb more memory and more cuda cores.

[lost fossil]

isn't 1650 kinda almost the same as 1050 ti or maybe just slightly better?

[arctic yarrow]

Yes

[lost fossil]

yeah in that case 1060 >

that ebay card would be a good deal (for 2022 standards anyway)

[arctic yarrow]

If you're averse to ebay, I have found a 1060 on my local listings for $250.

[jovial tide]

@arctic yarrownot compatible bro

the 1060

[arctic yarrow]

wdym not compatible?

[jovial tide]

well it doesntt show in pc part picker that uts not compatible

[lost fossil]

of course it's compatible unless it's half a meter long which it isn't

[arctic yarrow]

I've yet to find a graphics card that is not compatible with any PC using a pcie x16 interface.

[jovial tide]

@arctic yarrow well how can i verify if my graphics card is compatible

[arctic yarrow]

Compatibility issues mainly arise for the cpu, ram and motherboard. Almost everything else can work together.

[arctic yarrow]

The only issues you might have are with physical compatibility. E.G. your gpu is too long for your case to fit in.

Otherwise, graphics cards are built to be compatible with almost every modern motherboard.

[jovial tide]

oh ok

[arctic yarrow]

How good they run with the hardware is a different story

I can tell you that the 1060 paired with the 12400 will work fine together.

[jovial tide]

ok

does ppk want to scam me with a 1k 1060

[arctic yarrow]

What's ppk?

[jovial tide]

pc part picker

[lost fossil]

definitely for sure

might be a 4th party amazon seller or smth

[arctic yarrow]

Someone on amazon being too hopeful they can sell that graphics card for 1200

Not a scam necessarily, but a poor deal.

I'd also try checking your local listings and see if there's a few deals too.

[jovial tide]

I found 1060 6gb for 235dollars in my local area

[arctic yarrow]

If you can (covid restrictions notwithstanding), try to get them to show the item functioning before you make the transaction.

[jovial tide]

Oh we can do a meet up

It in my city

[lost fossil]

do it like right now

[jovial tide]

Why

[lost fossil]

before someone like u grabs it first

[jovial tide]

Oh there are also ppl selling for 300 and even 200

honestly almost flawless

5 issues, some expected due to miyconst and the product description:

• sleep mode doesn't exist
• USB3 has some issues with dropping out depending on the device
• BIOS layout is quite terrible
• POST is a tiny slow
• some VRM temp sensors don't exist

[hexed crystal]

looks more like spaghetti than my code

[lost fossil]

sleep mode is whatever

[analog wharf]

wat bios layout look like

[lost fossil]

it never worked on any of my computers

[analog wharf]

it better have click ui

[lost fossil]

bios looks like it's from 2006

[analog wharf]

ouch

no click ui in 2022

[brave field]

Definitely no fancy post-2015 UEFI with mouse support

[analog wharf]

Big ouch

[brave field]

but the default gray and blue American Megatrends UEFI isn't bad

[lost fossil]

i don't even use the mouse in modern uefi's

[brave field]

The issue with this one is the layout is just insane

They have every possible option unlocked in here

[lost fossil]

[brave field]

so you can end up going 6 layers deep under one option

could get lost in there for hours

[analog wharf]

tbh yea, i think newer mobo bioses are just better because they dont look like some blue screen with a bunch of settings lmao

tf

i replied to the wrong message

[arctic yarrow]

That's the best kinda bios IMO. Those older simple UIs with a shit ton of options. Nowadays you have this fancy schmancy shit with like 3 options.

[brave field]

Its really overwhelming on this particular board though. Every page has 20+ options and ever option has 20+ suboptions about half the suboptions have another 20 suboptions to them.

Its missing things like a VT-d and VT-x toggle, yet has all sorts of weird low-level things that likely don't even affect normal usage

[analog wharf]

send screenshot of bios

[brave field]

This menu right here

contains this menu, which contains the next menu, which contains the next menu

I'd probably enjoy wasting an entire afternoon navigating that bios

Mayhaps!

@lost fossil On Ali, this board's item no 1005001975762944. There's a whole bunch of different models with the same or similar PCBs, and solder points for things the better SKUs have are still present on the board, minus the m.2 e-key. All the versions are called "Atermiter/PlexHD/Kllisre X99 Turbo (D4)."

[brave field]

Huh

[crude jewel]

Why do my fps drop from 60 to 40 when I'm around grass in GTA

Playing on 1080p ultra

[lilac heath]

Grass areas are very intensive in gta so its normal to see a fps drop
U can reduce the grass quality to high in settings to fix the fps drop

[crude jewel]

[cursive saffron]

[lilac heath]

[cold elbow]

that's why i set grass to the lowest even with a very good pc specs.

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/V2K3C6 lower the price smh

[kindred temple]

Hard to get anything done without MSRP GPUs.

[jovial tide]

whats that

[kindred temple]

i mean GPUs sold right at the price Nvidia/AMD want.

For 3050, its 250$.

[jovial tide]

then why is it not selling at 250$

kinda dumb

@kindred temple

[kindred temple]

Because the demand made by literally everyone needing a new GPU.

And the just-in-time flaws rearing its ugly head creating a stunting bottleneck.

[jovial tide]

then i should just wait for the prices to drop

[kindred temple]

And also tarrifs for any goods shipped from China and its sovereign territories. If you live in US.

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/MQVwPX

Scalpers with undoubtedly target the 3050. Msrp is 250 but I’d expect to pay roughly 350-400 minimum

[kindred temple]

This is the basement dweller PC for value seekers that still want a functioning PC.

Slap in either a 3050 or 3060 in there.

[jovial tide]

well i dont live in the us

[kindred temple]

If you want to learn to downvolt a CPU and GPU, you can slap in 3060Ti with the PSU i listed.

But beyond that you could be CPU bottlenecked in 1080.

And while youre at whatever shop to buy the GPU, thats also the chance to buy a mass storage hard drive like a Seagate Barracuda 2TB.

Hence no HDD.

tri-linear or anisotropic x16?

what's better

[arctic yarrow]

x16 is better visually, and has a very minor performance impact.

In fact, literally every gpu from 2012 and up will lose maaaaybe 1 fps by going with x16 astroscopic filtering.

[trail cape]

performance impact is secondary concern on my hardware unless we're talking raytracing

[arctic yarrow]

Then yeah, crank that setting to max.

[trail cape]

of course

even more so considering it's only GTA IV

[fervent granite]

is GTA IV locked to 60 fps?

Yes. Sadly you should keep it that way (don't mess with the config) or some missions will break.

[arctic yarrow]

[brave field]

huh, thought CAD was heavily singlethreaded

[cold elbow]

And thr stupidest setup award goes to:

[kindred temple]

The only reason why you dont run x16 is because of game specific bug. Thats it.

Even on latest game, x16 only lose you like 2-3 FPS on average.

[arctic yarrow]

That mouse seems a little too expensive imo. Also, while the 6600xt is marginally better than the gtx 1060, I don't think it's worth a $200 premium.

[jovial tide]

@arctic yarrow the 6600 is basically a 3050

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/bFH3C6

a model o- is 70 dollars

[arctic yarrow]

Also, just a personal nitpick, but that seems to be a small amount of storage.

[jovial tide]

thats enough i wont be installing 3 a titles

[arctic yarrow]

Yes, the 3050 matches the 6600xt, but a used 1060 is a vastly better value than either a 3050 or 6600xt for the performance.

You'd be paying $200 less for a 10% drop in performance.

Compared to either a 6600xt or 3050.

The storage nitpick is just a personal preference tho, so go with what you think you need in that case.

[jovial tide]

@arctic yarrow the 6600 not xt gives abt 130 fps

and 10% less performace

[arctic yarrow]

In what title?

Also, can you get the 6600 for $250-300

[jovial tide]

fortnite

and gta v gives 60-100 wich is not that much

[arctic yarrow]

Gta V is more cpu bound nowadays.

[jovial tide]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/BkGkLs

the 3050

its cheaper

[arctic yarrow]

Sec, getting on my pc to look up stuff

Here's a side-by-side comparison of the 3050 vs the 1650 vs 1060:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B4P-Cf1IGEo

Now, considering you can get your 3050 for $430, while a used 1060 goes for anywhere between $250-300, I'd say the 1060 has the value crown in this case.

As you can see from that vid, the 1060 has 10% less performance than the 3050.

[cold elbow]

and that 3050 running a pcie gen 4

if you test both with pcie gen 3 the 1060 gonna take turns around the 3050

and the 1060 comes with more vram and an encoder.

[arctic yarrow]

Oh, you're right. That H610 motherboard is gonna bottleneck the 3050.

[plucky raft]

I want to add an SSD for my potato pc since I made some money lately
How much is the recommended size and is there anything special to look for?

[arctic yarrow]

Depends on your budget. How much are you willing to spend?

[plucky raft]

Not a lot like minimum if possible

[arctic yarrow]

Do you have a dollar amount or range?

[plucky raft]

I mean

I have 40 euros total in my pocket

It would be better if i save some of it

[arctic yarrow]

You'll probably be able to obtain a 240gb ssd and have some left over.

If you don't have an m.2 slot on your motherboard, go with a sata ssd.

[plucky raft]

Will it be able to store necessary stuff to make the computer faster

I don't know what m.2 is but it's an old computer

[arctic yarrow]

You'll see decreases in OS boot time (assuming you're using it for the OS) and program launch times.

Plus, if you're using windows 10 or 11 you'll have a much smoother experience.

[plucky raft]

Yes my pc takes like 5 minutes to fully start

Starting GTA takes a lot also

[arctic yarrow]

GTA takes ages in general, but you might see a minute shaved off when launching it.

[plucky raft]

And i face drops every now and then
Friends said i need ssd

[arctic yarrow]

Keep in mind, a 240gb ssd won't have much free space if you install your OS and GTA on it at the same time.

[plucky raft]

So i need the game on ssd to make it faster or its ok to have ssd and hard drive?

[digital pike]

Having an ssd for just the OS is fine. You don't have to necessarily put games on it.

[arctic yarrow]

Yes, it's ok to have a hard drive and an ssd, you simply won't be able to take advantage of SSD speeds for the game if you have the game installed on the HDD.

[digital pike]

That's incorrect

Having the OS on a separate drive reduces the load on the HDD which also improves load times. It isn't extremely noticable, but still a concern.

Having just the OS on an SSD is fine.

Also RAM is a concern, too, if you only have 8gb.

[arctic yarrow]

Oh, that's true.

[plucky raft]

I have 12GB ram

[arctic yarrow]

12gb should be fine

[digital pike]

That's servicable then

[plucky raft]

Or was it 10

Im not sure

Found A data sata ssd for 25€

240gb

[digital pike]

16 is the standard nowadays, but anything above 8 helps.

I mean, you can probably get 500gb for a similar price. Unsure, better double check

[plucky raft]

I will keep looking

Thank you guys very much

[arctic yarrow]

np

[plucky raft]

Upgrading this potato is fun every now and then

[arctic yarrow]

The lowest price i've seen on newegg is $42.99, or 37.58€

[digital pike]

Lol, yeah, I bet

Hmm. Interesting

[arctic yarrow]

Checking amazon

[plucky raft]

Is it worth it to spend all my money on a 500

[arctic yarrow]

yup, $42.99 is the lowest price for a 480gb on amazon.

[arctic yarrow]

If it's not an urgent upgrade, I'd save up a little more.

[plucky raft]

Is it fine to buy used?

[digital pike]

Ye

For ssds, it's fine

[plucky raft]

Awesome

[arctic yarrow]

SSDs last ages if you're not constantly rewriting (which most people don't do).

[digital pike]

OS ssd > RAM > Game Ssd > cpu* > gpu

• Assuming it's woefully underpowered

[plucky raft]

I recently bought a gt1030

And that was a massive upgrade

[digital pike]

Pain

[brave field]

1030 ouchie

[plucky raft]

There's a fan zip tied to it

I get 60fps in gta so

[digital pike]

Slav engineering

[brave field]

How much did you pay for it?

[plucky raft]

About 45€

[brave field]

eh, price makes up for it being a 1030 imo
Some people were paying >$100 (USD) before the current GPU pricing problems

[arctic yarrow]

That's... actually not that bad of a price.

[plucky raft]

Yes I got it from a friend

[arctic yarrow]

That moment I accidentally click on userbenchmark.

[fresh sparrow]

bruh

[lilac heath]

[arctic yarrow]

For 45 euros, that's actually not a bad deal.

[lilac heath]

Well in 2019,u could easily find a gtx1050 for that price

[arctic yarrow]

No, those were scams. You could find a 1050 for $80-90

[lilac heath]

Probably 2nd hand then

[arctic yarrow]

Those were 2nd hand

[split bay]

i have no clue

[shadow delta]

guys

anyone know physics 2

[jovial tide]

Quit spamming it in every non-gta channel you smooth brained chimp

!mute 918047872254111765 3h spamming

[craggy thicket]

Muted troyycreates#7931 for 3 hours (Case #153888) (user notified with a direct message)

[jovial tide]

ok

what

[jovial tide]

bad

everything was good@until the end

yeah you're right, chimps are generally quite cute

[arctic yarrow]

I was in class, what did I miss?

[jovial tide]

Someone asking every channel to report a guy on GTA 😭

[lost fossil]

🎲

[brazen kettle]

Help me

[lost fossil]

man's ballin

[lost fossil]

just press remind me later

[cursive saffron]

mini nasa computer

[brazen kettle]

Yeah it seems okay now I restarted it and it works again

When I shut down my PC the monitor lost signal, and now I'm assuming when I forced it off it was mid-windows update

[arctic yarrow]

@brazen kettle You're gonna be set on processing power for a loooong time.

[arctic yarrow]

Damn, that's a ballin PC.

[brazen kettle]

I need more

[arctic yarrow]

How do you get more, other than buying more storage, increasing RAM, and getting a 3090ti?

[brazen kettle]

Yeah GPU mainly

[arctic yarrow]

Might as well get a 4k monitor if you're gonna upgrade your GPU.

[brazen kettle]

Can't really

Does 2160p144 exist?

[arctic yarrow]

Yes:

[brazen kettle]

I'd personally consider anything less than a 4K 144 a downgrade over 1440p270, so it would need to be at least 144+

[arctic yarrow]

https://www.amazon.com/ASUS-Strix-Gaming-Monitor-XG27UQR/dp/B09B8WLYGD/ref=sr_1_3?crid=38XWR74075BOP&keywords=4k+144hz&qid=1644415734&sprefix=4k+144hz%2Caps%2C210&sr=8-3

[brazen kettle]

Hmm

[arctic yarrow]

There's several other options though, pick your poison.

[brazen kettle]

Now wondering if that was a better option to buy, although it would suck to have to deal with it not running the best until I upgraded my GPU

It runs GTA Online 1440p Ultra at 70-90 fps at 1.25x Resolution

Which is 1600p

Wouldn't want the jump to 2160p running on my hardware less than 60 fps

[arctic yarrow]

There's diminishing returns with gta online though. On my 7700k with a 2070s I get the same framerate on the same settings.

[kindred temple]

what monitor?

also yeah, most of the time you gonna be better off 1440p

even if the game is more CPU bondaged

like GTAO

[brazen kettle]

I can't remember the model number but Acer Predator 1440p270 you'll find it

27" Model

[kindred temple]

Ah i see

[brazen kettle]

Unfortunately the model has come down in price like $200

Paid $1200 AUD and it's now like $1000 AUD

Same thing happened with my 2080 Ti

[kindred temple]

probably capped at 272, if youre on DP

i was thinking if you could squeeze in

5hz more

[brazen kettle]

I have issue powering it anyway

2 Setups are ran off 1 socket

Over some gray extension lead I got who knows when

I'd send a photo but the setup looks rather disgusting right now there's popcorn, hair and dust everywhere

[arctic yarrow]

Probably not as bad as my setup

[arctic yarrow]

That's a lot of hard liquor.

[civic cloud]

get a monitor stand, really helps to clean up the setup

[brazen kettle]

That's only half of it

[civic cloud]

also, clean your places you filthy fucks

[brazen kettle]

Theres still this behind me

[arctic yarrow]

Jeeeesus, I go through only 2 of those bottles a year.

[brazen kettle]

I smoke weed more than I drink

[arctic yarrow]

I need to head to work before the idiot drivers wake up.

[brazen kettle]

👋

Here's a photo from when the setup wasn't a mess

In case anyway spots it, yes, the unicorn sticker is still there

[civic cloud]

How did you go from that to the sad state it's in rn

[brazen kettle]

I didn't vacuum

There's 2 PCs here

[civic cloud]

Go vacuum then

[brazen kettle]

No 😸 👌

[civic cloud]

disgusting

[brazen kettle]

To be fair, the Jack daniels, tv remote and stolichnaya bottles fell out of there when I accidentally rolled the desk forward

It doesn't usually look like this

It only happens like 2 days ago

Plus there's a piano right next to it

[jovial tide]

I like this setup cause even if the PC specs aren't amazing, the screen resolution is small enough to where 60fps is always possible

But I see a lot of RGB so the specs are probably very good lol

[brazen kettle]

Specs are a bit further up

It's an old image

That's not the new monitor

[jovial tide]

Ah

[lilac heath]

https://youtu.be/kTzRLVVbSMA

[brazen kettle]

Here I'll clean up and take a photo

[jovial tide]

I feel like the smartphone market moves very slowly, but there again the PC market moves very fast so it's hard to tell which is normal

[lilac heath]

[brazen kettle]

@jovial tide

[jovial tide]

Oh nice yeah the monitors look bigger now

[brazen kettle]

Well the one to the right is the same, I just moved out the main monitor from a 1080p60 benq monitor to the Acer Predator 1440p270 one

[jovial tide]

Something tells me you like Marvel

[junior flax]

Psychuc

😮

[brazen kettle]

Eh I've been meaning to do something else with it

Otherwise that other monitor that was replaced is just sitting here unplugged

[jovial tide]

Yeah might as well use it as a 2nd monitor for discord or something ig

[brazen kettle]

3rd*

[jovial tide]

oh

[brazen kettle]

I need a bigger desk though

[jovial tide]

Same, I can hardly fit 1 37 inch monitor on it

Might invest in an ultra wide 1440p one of the same height since I have a little wiggle room despite its size

[lost fossil]

mfw i bought an s21 fe for my mom like 2 weeks ago

tbf not like it's suddenly a phone by any means but it still feels

[arctic yarrow]

If that feels old to you, I shudder to think what you think about my Note 5.

[jovial tide]

Those are called cameras xd

[arctic yarrow]

More cameras helps with accurate depth perception.

I'm gonna have to research that before I give you an answer.

Ok, so I was incorrect. The reason why there's more cameras is because they are different types of cameras. Some have mechanical zoom, some are normal, and some have a wider FOV.

With a dedicated camera, you can switch out lenses, but phones don't have that option due to space.

NP

@jovial tide I guess I wasn't wrong about depth in pictures, but that wasn't the full reason either.

[brazen kettle]

Same
