That's still good!

uhh no not really xD

#

I can't even run roblox without lag xD

#

That's the same CPU I had in my first PC lol

kindred lodge
#

@clear jacinth you might need a small update lol

clear jacinth
#

yeah I'm saving up for a new build

#

with a r5 3600 & a amd radeon rx5500xt

@topaz panther why have them at different heights?
@solemn sail only 1 arm amd I keep changing the setup. When I have matching monitors they will be same height with 3rd above.

Guys, do you use liquid cooling or OnlyFans?

covert glade
#

oops

#

frick that’s a good one

clear jacinth
#

both

#

wait wha

void pewter
#

I woke up to this 😂

clear jacinth
#

sickk

#

no idea what is says but it's still cool lol

void pewter
#

I think it says something about plans for the weekend

covert glade
#

good weekend team

#

what are your plans

#

i belive

#

i’m ok at french

#

that’s just a rough estimation

nimble spear
#

how do you stack your monitors like that @void pewter

covert glade
#

@nimble spear don’t think it’s theirs

nimble spear
#

Ahh okay @covert glade either way I wanna know haha

covert glade
#

i mean over under is ok

#

i personally like curved in the middle to straights on the side

nimble spear
#

I was thinking that tbh

void pewter
#

It's mine

#

It's a stand I got on Amazon

#

It has a C clamp so it'll connect to the desk, and then it's a thick medal rod that stands up straight. My bottom monitor is just on my desk, and I raised my top high enough to put it on top of my bottom

#

@nimble spear

covert glade
#

oh

void pewter
#

The reason I put the curved on top is because my other small monitor that is to the left didn't have the back adaptor for the holder

covert glade
#

how did it get on the steelseries france account then

void pewter
#

🤷🏻‍♂️ Your guess is as good as mine

#

I posted it here

covert glade
#

you hacked it filled it with jiggy jiggy then removed that and posted it

void pewter
#

So I'm assuming they just did that

nimble spear
#

^^^ can me move general conversation to general chat please

void pewter
#

I was just talking about my PC build 🤷🏻‍♂️

clear jacinth
#

about 900 euro's

void pewter
#

I have the HD actually

clear jacinth
#

nice

void pewter
#

I just got a donation to get an SSD so I'm super excited about that

lusty palm
#

which one you getting ??

void pewter
#

I'm not 100% sure yet, it depends on price/what I want to put onto it. While having something that can house ALL of my games would be nice, it would be much pricier. Right now I'm focused on my OS, and maybe WoW, becuase those two load the slowest

noble oak
#

I would use pc part picker because they find the cheapest one for you

#

They take like 5 different companies and see who’s is cheapest

#

@void pewter

void pewter
#

thank you! I just haven't looked yet, but I know my parts, and my partner is a computer science major, so I have plenty of smart guys around me to help ❤️

#

@clear jacinth If you have the money I'd bump the GPU up to a 5600XT for much better gaming performance and longer performance lifespan overall than the 5500XT

clear jacinth
#

5600xt is only 6gb

#

5500xt is 8gb

#

@static pecan

static pecan
#

6GB is more than enough for any modern game and even that will probably never be filled up for the next few game generations, but the 5600XT is a 35% performance increase over the 5500XT and beats it in every benchmark. Plus it's just a better value when compared to Nvidia cards as well

#

The extra 8GB of VRAM over the 4GB version of the 5500XT doesn't increase performance that much and is honestly not really worth it IMO that's why I say go with the 5600XT to get a better value for your money

covert glade
#

doesn’t valorant need 32gb of ram according to someone

low vigil
#

Nonsense

#

16 is enough for everything

#

And it's the speed of the ram that matters

covert glade
#

cough cough @wispy kiln cough cough

low vigil
#

Also does size really matter?

topaz panther
#

Anyone got a recommendation for a display switch? I want to switch between work and gaming rigs using the same monitors (display port) and peripherals (usb).

covert glade
#

oh

stuck bluff
#

I'm glad you guys didn't argue!

#

👍

covert glade

was a misunderstanfing

It's all goood

#

It's hard to convey the correct meaning in text at times

covert glade

yeah

low vigil
#

Asking for a friend who is looking for a cheap fan

#

Which of these should he buy

pulsar fossil
#

5500xt is 8gb
@clear jacinth I've had a GPU with 8MB RAM.. I feel pretty old now lol

clear jacinth
#

O.o

pulsar fossil
#

And the CPU had a whopping 536 MHz

#

Was using it with a 15" Nokia CRT monitor

clear jacinth
#

damn

#

that monitor must’ve taken like atleast 187 punches

pulsar fossil
#

It did actually eventually die on me

storm umbra
#

Anyone have that gut feeling they want to punch their monitor but they know what’s gonna happen 😂

#

Then you hold your fist in the air

#

Right at it

pulsar fossil
#

I've never really had that need

storm umbra
#

Then draw back...

#

It happens daily for me

pulsar fossil
#

I've been a little rough on some keyboards and mice

#

but never a screen

#

and I've never broken anything

storm umbra
#

I usually pull an Xqc and slam my table

#

I’ve been very close to my PC...very very close

pulsar fossil
#

I feel a little bit bad about it but I'm kinda tempted to get a new cpu cooler just to get something that's prettier

#

Maybe even the same Noctua but in black

storm umbra
#

Noctua, cooler master and be quiet have some pretty nice coolers

pulsar fossil
#

My PC could use some better aesthetics

#

The basic metal/brown isn't great imo

storm umbra
#

Yeah. I spent way to much on aesthetics

#

I could’ve upgraded my GPU

#

But was to caught up in rainbow puke 😂

#

Rainbow puke 👆

lusty palm
#

thas litarly my pc i have the same pc

pulsar fossil
#

I'm the other way around

#

Haha nice

#

I'm sporting an i9-9900k, 2080Ti and 32GB RAM

#

So no need to any upgrades

stuck bluff
#

Look at that flex 👀

#

But I'd kill for a 2080

#

I just hate the price of them lmao

lusty palm
#

i have 2070 super and ryzen 7 3600x 16gb ram

pulsar fossil
#

That's pretty good as well @lusty palm

#

@stuck bluff just wait until you see the laptop that I'll be trying out soon :p

#

That will be more flexing

stuck bluff
#

...

#

Lmao

#

But can't wait to see how you find said laptop!

#

What are the specs on it?

stuck bluff
#

Or is that covered by an NDA?

pulsar fossil
#

No iDea yAt

#

Close enough

stuck bluff
#

It works for me 👀

pulsar fossil
#

But let's just say...

#

300Hz monitor

stuck bluff
#

Yo what?!

#

Thats insane

pulsar fossil
#

Most likely 2080 super

stuck bluff
#

1080p?

pulsar fossil
#

Yes

#

10th gen Intel cpu

#

I7/i9

stuck bluff
#

Suppose it'll have to be as 1440p at 300hz would need about 3 2080tis 😂

pulsar fossil
#

Pretty much

stuck bluff
#

I'm tempted by a 2080 super but I can't afford one atm

pulsar fossil
#

I almost forgot the most important thing

stuck bluff
#

But I'm happy with my 8700k 3.7ghz lmao

ye they good

#

i have a laptop that i bought from them

#

it works pretty good

storm umbra
#

Their monitors are pretty litty Fire.

stuck bluff
#

Only reason I ask is that I was tempted by either the aorus 2080 super or MSI one.

lusty palm
#

i got a full hd 144hz for 200 dollars

stuck bluff
#

You can get an xl2411p monitor for about that price.

#

Fantastic monitor!

But it was my second laptop and my first gaming laptop

replace the ryzen 5 3600 and get a ryzen 7 3700 cause its better. too many builds with a ryzen 5 3600. overall the build is amazing

static pecan
#

A 3700 is kinda pointless though if you're not doing anything that actually needs the two extra cores. Especially if all you're doing is gaming then 6 cores is more than enough. Unless you plan to do content creation or stream a 3700 would just be a waste of money

pulsar bone
#

True

topaz panther
clear jacinth
#

go with a 9 3900x

#

there's like a 2% better performance for the 3950x

#

but it does have extra cores and threads i believe so if u really need them

warm jolt
#

you don't need a beefy gaming PC. a Ryzen 7 and GTX1650 will do just fine

clear jacinth
#

a gtx 1650 is a bit outdated for most of the new games

#

bc it only has 4gb of vram

storm umbra
#

2060KO or 5700XT is the best value cards right now. 2070/2070 super are also great value

pulsar fossil
#

you don't need a beefy gaming PC. a Ryzen 7 and GTX1650 will do just fine
@warm jolt that certainly depends on your needs. I for one have been very happy with using an i9-9900k and a RTX2080Ti

who wouldn't

but I don't wanna spend 1200 euro's xD

stuck bluff
#

There is that.

warm jolt
#

that certainly depends on your needs. I for one have been very happy with using an i9-9900k and a RTX2080Ti
@pulsar fossil and how many thousands of dollars did you shell out, may I ask?

clear jacinth
#

my guess is 2500

warm jolt
#

for a computer with a 2080Ti?

clear jacinth
#

well the gpu is the most expensive part of the pc most of the time

warm jolt
#

I know

#

@pulsar fossil how much ram does you computer have, and how much did it cost?

pulsar fossil
#

@warm jolt 32GB and enough :)

#

Danish prices aren't exactly comparable to the US

clear jacinth
#

same as euro's

#

but there is this dutch site that has great value for the products

static pecan
#

I can't believe someone unironically recommended a 1650 as the only gaming GPU you need lmao

clear jacinth
#

ikr

covert glade
#

lol

static pecan
#

If all you do is play games from pre-2010 or emulators then yeah but for playing any modern game a 1650 is the bare minimum of what you need lmao

#

I say that as someone using a laptop with a 1650 in it 😂

I was thinking of getting razer viper but then I started seeing ads for it everywhere

this one is custom built (not built by me, but built for me)

#

im going to get more into pcs, and the next time im going to make my pc

storm umbra
#

Nice 🔥

#

I’d just recommend some more cable management. I bought a 50 piece set of cable clips for $14 USD, changed my setup.

hexed grove
#

yeah i really do need some cable managment, it's gotten a bit better from before

topaz panther
#

Current rig is a threadripper 1920x, with 64GB Corvair Vengeance DDR4, Asus Strix 2060 RTX 8GB OC edition but it still struggles with some higher graphics settings. Hence the desire for a 11GB 2080 Ti.

Cablemods will be added later

What keyboard is that

#

Is it an Apex without the palm rest?

#

@warm jolt I don't think it's SteelSeries - says "spirit of gamer" on it

clear jacinth
#

yep that's the one

pulsar fossil
#

Is it any good?

clear jacinth
#

It does the job, it isn't good but it isn't terrible either

#

but that's with most of the membrane keyboards

#

oh and like the paintjob of the frame is like terribly done because after 3 months the paint started to faint because of my hand laying on it lol

pulsar fossil

I guess that you get what you pay for

#

But membrane keyboards aren't all terrible

clear jacinth
#

true, but I was considering buying an apex 7 tkl when the us varient comes in stock again

I'd rather get a cheap keyboard and a better mouse than the other way around

I've got a rival 600 myself :p

I've been switching a lot but have been mostly sticking to the Sensei Ten for a while now

snow flume
#

if you are going to use amd then use the stock cooler spend the 25 on antoher part like higher ram speeds

clear jacinth
#

the amd stock coolers will do the job, it also has pre-applied thermal paste. but if you want to overclock my guess goes to buying an aio or just fully watercool your pc which will be more expensive of course

snow flume
#

the best thing do do is get a really good case that will last you a long time which allows enough room for water cooling then you wont have to spend that money in the future. i would say that the Lian Li PC-O11DW 011 DYNAMIC is the best future proof case

low vigil
#

get a case that has good air flow

#

and not a silent one

storm umbra
#

I have my R5 2600 at 3.9Ghz and my temps are in the high 30s (36-39) idle, highest temp I saw under heavy load was 68. It was with stock cooler too so Stock Coolers for AMD do the job well.

i just ordered i7 9700k rtx 2070 super 16g ram

is it good?

storm umbra
#

Are you asking if it’s a good buy or if it’s top of the line?

noble oak

if its a good but

buy

i mean all the pros have that

#

and i saw it works preety good

storm umbra
#

It’ll pump some frames

noble oak
#

??

storm umbra
#

If you’re want the top of the line stuff go for a I9-9900K and 2080Ti with 32-64gb RAM.

#

It’s a good machine

noble oak
#

yea i know

storm umbra
#

That’s what I mean

noble oak
#

i9 10900

#

better

clear jacinth
#

16 gigs will do the job for gaming

noble oak
#

yea

#

hopefully

clear jacinth
#

32 - 64 gigs is more for editting/rendering stuff

storm umbra
#

10900 is a bit of a gag if you ask me. You need more cooling for it and it’s a waste of money in my opinion

#

I can see why people get it though

#

Yeah I was just saying what you’d like for top of the line

clear jacinth
#

you can better get a r9 3900x over a 10900k

storm umbra
#

16gb is plenty for gaming.

#

Better yet a 3950X 😂

#

Those things are HOT

#

Not literally

#

But you get the gist lol

clear jacinth
#

it's a 2% better performance for like $100 more but ok

#

nvm x2 the price of a 3900x

storm umbra
#

Hell if you’re getting a 3900X you’re already bangin so might as well go all out 😂

#

But you’re right. It’s kind of a blow

clear jacinth
#

I mean i'm rocking an a8-9600 radeon so a 3900x will always be welcome 😂

storm umbra
#

Same as the 9900k vs the 10900k

#

Lol

clear jacinth
#

I'm excited for the xt drops of ryzen

lucid wigeon
#

anything above 9900k/9900ks isn't worth it imo

#

9900ks does show improved performance over the 9900k

storm umbra

Tbh...

#

Completely forgot about the 9900ks 😂

lusty palm
#

what do you think of my build

storm umbra
#

I like it

#

I’d go with a tower cpu cooler though but the stock heatsink does well if you’re not wanting to spend the money

#

And maybe a 3 pack of RGB fans to spice it up a bit in color. I got a pack on Amazon for $20 and it turned my build upside down on aesthetics

#

Plus you get 3 instead of 1 for $6 more

Otherwise that’s pretty bangin

if i personalize my keyboard (apex 3) with the prismsync app from the steelseries engine thing, will the keyboard have the same style (same colors and animation) if i plug it into the ps4?

dm me :)

noble oak

k thankjs

quick hull
#

@noble oak normally u can personalize your keyboard with a lot of colors on the steelseries engine app anyways thats what i think is right

#

i dunno what the color: red -Linear and quiet means, i know that quiet means : quiet keys that for sure and linear i think its for the lights direction not so certain, the red idk key letters colors? just a guess

#

@noble oak ^

noble oak
#

k

static pecan
#

@noble oak that's referring to the type of switch in the keyboard. Red switches are linear and quiet, Blue's are tactile and clickily, and Browns are a bit in the middle of Red and Blue

#

It's not referring to the color of the actual board, just the type of switch underneath each key

noble oak
#

@static pecan so does mean red switches are pure mechanical?

Red, Blue, and Brown are all mechanical

noble oak
#

k

#

@static pecan but red switch perform better?

static pecan
#

It's pretty much personal preference. I like the feel of Browns the best but a lot of people like Reds. Blues are the loudest though so if you want a quiet keyboard go with Reds

noble oak
#

ah ok

#

thanks

static pecan
#

Np

noble oak
#

you have won a ticket to heaven

static pecan
#

I always recommend finding a Best Buy or other PC store that has keyboards on display so you can try out each switch, but IK that's not always an option for some people and especially not rn with everything closed and such

#

Thank you Lord it's what I've always wanted

noble oak

Hey everyone I recently broke my cpu cooler it was a noctua D-15 I am thinking of replacing it with a AIO. my pc theme is white but Im not sure what aio cooler I should buy, I have the asus cpu cooler in mind right now you guys got any suggestions please @ me when responding!

snow flume

@granite granite get the Corsair H100i RGB PLATINUM SE

your cable management gives me anxiety

No I don’t have a real desk that’s why my setup looks like this

@stuck bluff looks good... but are you italian because there's spaghetti all over your desk

But yeah my cable management is atrocious.

I really want a ultrawide

It is pretty damn sweet.

but they're quite expensive ;-;

stuck bluff

Tell me about it

#

Was pricey.

clear jacinth
#

they are nice though

hearty ravine
#

I like having 2 monitors too much to ever buy an ultrawide

#

also, i like having money

clear jacinth
#

I have 1 monitor ;-;

hearty ravine
#

2 monitors is better than 1 ultrawide and it's cheaper :]

clear jacinth
#

true

stuck bluff
#

I mean

clear jacinth
#

well actually it depends

stuck bluff

It's personal preference

#

I enjoy it

#

And tbh, I'm happy

molten basalt

I agree with @hearty ravine

Well as I said

triple monitor setup is just a wet dream for me

i love minecraft

the forest is best survival game tho

I need to play Minecraft more.

Minecraft is the best

Struggling to get into it.

clear jacinth
#

minecraft is great, how dare you disrespect minecraft like that

stuck bluff
#

Because I did 👀

clear jacinth
#

but ark is great, but my pc can run it at a solid 11 fps

#

lowest settings btw ^

hearty ravine
#

its ok when i first started playing overwatch i still was using integrated graphics and was at a solid 15 fps when i played

#

got placed high plat tho for my first ever season :]

clear jacinth
#

O.O

stuck bluff
#

Now my issue is that my graphics card will struggle a bit.

hearty ravine

15 fps was sitting in spawn btw

clear jacinth

I suck at most of the games but i enjoy them 😂

stuck bluff

Crap

hearty ravine

yeah i need to update my CPU, motherboard and ram desperately

Just my gpu now 👌

Eventually.

Let me just recover from the absolute slaughter on my wallet buying this

my first set up was a laptop that can only run online games but i upgraded this week to a pc

@stuck bluff is something wrong in your head

@hearty ravine how much ram do u have

it’s a joke bye

i dont want 2 talk about how much ram i have

I also have 8 gb, single channel btw

I got 16 gb

lucid wigeon
#

once you've gone triple monitor there's no going back

covert glade
#

I was dropped as a child
@stuck bluff that explains it

static pecan
#

Triple monitor is the only way to monitor

median rivet
#

I mean even 2

lucid wigeon
#

two is defo better than 1, 3 is overkill but you can really get used to it

#

good for people who need multiple windows open

covert glade
#

would be good for streaming

median rivet
#

I wouldn't say 3 is overkill

covert glade
#

yeah if you stream

lucid wigeon
#

@median rivet maybe overkill for the average gamer

#

i know people who've only just swapped to dual monitors and they've gotten thousands of hours on games

median rivet
#

Well yeah, for gaming it's pointless but for workflow it's sick

lucid wigeon
#

oh yeah, defo

covert glade
#

i mean it’s good if you game for discord on one and something else like task manager on the other or something to check your components stress and heat and stuff like that

lucid wigeon
#

depends on monitor sizes

#

you could fit both those on one and have a dual monitor setup

#

i fit my discord and spotify on one of my 27"

median rivet
#

That's what I do with my second and just have it open 24/7

lucid wigeon
#

right yeah

#

@covert glade what's worse Minecraft or Roblox?
Answer: yes.
@low vigil obviously roblox it looks like it was made by a 2 year old minecraft is amazing

clear jacinth

some roblox games are cool, some people can make great fps’ in roblox such as Phantom Forces

Out of stock

golden ocean

covert glade

what keyboard is that

wispy kiln
#

A Razer one by the looks of it?

golden ocean
#

razer blackwidow lite

wispy kiln
#

Apex Pro would look better sitting there 😉

covert glade
#

i dont like razer swirches

golden ocean
#

steelseries can shove their mechanical keyboard prices imo

#

everything else is fine for me

covert glade
#

theyre worth it and better than razer imo

golden ocean
#

better or not is subjective cause everyone has their own switches preference more or less

wispy kiln
#

It is preference. I recently moved from Razer to Steelseries and will never look back.

golden ocean
#

i wanted a lightweight option and steelseries didnt have one

wispy kiln
#

Fair enough

golden ocean
#

and in like 6 months or so, ill probably switch my mouse away from steelseries too sadly

#

if they dont come up with a competitor

#

to g pro and viper ultimate

#

but nobody will take away my arctis 7

#

just so good

wispy kiln

Anyone here for an i7 or better with a RTX 2070 or 2080 Super?

Wondering what cooling you have.

ebon owl

Yeah I got a liquid cooled cpu

I do also need to OC my CPU at some point

What you got?

wispy kiln

hows an i9-9600k and 2080ti for trying to push 15360 × 8640 pixels

#

ek watercooling

umbral anvil
#

tbh i would get an apex pro but, i like pbt double shot keycaps on otherkeyboards better :p

#

@trim agate i would say right off the bat, that is a huge waste of money, because the price/performance is awful

#

but if you have the money go for it, and i would go to the AMD side of CPUs rather than the intel side at that price point

low vigil
#

Ye

#

Ryzen 3900x

#

Costs about that

covert glade
#

what ryzen

#

a ryzen 3 or 5 or 7 or 9?

clear jacinth
#

3900x

#

a 3900x is a r9

low vigil
#

correct

clear jacinth
#

but for price and performance the 5 3600(x) should be the best value

low vigil
#

But that's not matching his gpu

#

2080ti requires stronger cpu

pulsar fossil
#

@trim agate depends on the FPS you want

clear jacinth
#

7 3700(x) is a good match with a 2080ti i'd say

#

probably the X version though

pulsar fossil
#

I'm running an i9-9900k and 2080Ti with a resolution of 3840x1080 and I'm only getting 100-125 fps in MW

low vigil

ROAAARR i9-9900k

ROAAARRR

#

Roaaarrrrr

#

What cooler do you use @pulsar fossil

clear jacinth
#

should've gone with ryzen @pulsar fossil 🤷 😂

#

jkjk

#

you do you

pulsar fossil
#

Noctua @low vigil

low vigil
#

The best one?

storm umbra
#

Noctua be nice tho

pulsar fossil
#

At the time it didn't really make sense for me to go AMD

#

Out of stock everywhere

low vigil
#

Did you build it yourseld

#

With your bare hands

clear jacinth
#

oh yeah than I understand you've gone with intel

pulsar fossil
#

And I wasn't really ready to go AMD

#

I built it yes

low vigil
#

Do u have the trio X

pulsar fossil
#

Lemme check which Noctua it is

low vigil
#

No no the gpu

clear jacinth
#

but for price and performance ryzen is on the better side though 🤷

low vigil
#

Which 2080ti

pulsar fossil
#

NH-U12A

low vigil
#

Asus rog strix, gigabyte , evga or msi

pulsar fossil
#

Gigabyte

#

Gaming oc

low vigil
#

Noice

#

I was told to avoid things that has OC in the end

#

Cus it's basically overclocked by the

#

Manufacturer

#

So I went with the trio

pulsar fossil
#

I went with what was in stock :p

clear jacinth
#

imagine if you could overclock a oc gpu

#

you'd basically be scammed if you could

pulsar fossil
#

You can

clear jacinth
#

:o

pulsar fossil
#

I think it has more to do with the cooling?

clear jacinth
#

probably

pulsar fossil
#

And an OC card being able to handle more heat

low vigil
#

When did u build it

pulsar fossil
#

Idk

#

Last year

low vigil
#

I bought the parts in summer last year

pulsar fossil
#

Oct

low vigil

Pre-ordered the ryzen 3900x

But I did manage to keep some bits from my old one.

Lucky you

So on my old one, I upgraded the gpu and psu.

So when I decided to buy a full new set up, I kept the PSU and storage.

Still cried at the cost.

But I had a credit card with 0% interest.

So I slapped it on that and had a finance option without having to sweat too much.

orchid geyser

Well that’s good

I do love interest free

But also, I'm kinda worried about getting a 2080 as I'm not sure if the PSU will be able to run it.

with screen tear

#

hey

i get 500-700 and 1000-1300 sometimes

#

in minecraft

covert glade
#

is that all you play

lavish kraken
#

and i wanna be a good minecraft player but it screen tear

#

uhhh no

#

i play fortnite valorant

#

ark

#

ark survival

covert glade
#

what do you get on that

lavish kraken
#

on fortnite

#

i get

#

400 fps in lobby

covert glade
#

what’s the lowest

lavish kraken
#

my lowest

#

80

#

fps

#

atleast

covert glade
#

on

#

*ok

lavish kraken
#

fortnite

#

and minecraft i mainly get 500 and way more

#

also screen tear hurts my eyes

#

dont know why but it does

covert glade
#

get like a 280hz

lavish kraken
#

wtf

#

i dont got the money

#

and where can u find a 280hz mon

covert glade
#

if you can get one

covert glade
#

i’d go with your average

lavish kraken
#

like just showing

#

its white nvm

#

its a white monitor

#

everything i own is black

#

my mic headset and mouse and keyboard and case

covert glade
#

like let’s say you get on average 200 or less go 144 if you get 100 or less 60 go with like that

lavish kraken
#

no

#

i get in fortnite

#

130-200

#

fps

#

sometimes 200

#

but

#

mainly between 130-200

covert glade
#

go with a 144 hz the

#

*then

#

or 60

lavish kraken
#

what ablout other games

#

like ark

#

and mincreeft

#

well

#

minecraft

#

is whatever

#

but ark csgo

#

ark, csgo, valorant, fortnite

median rivet
#

That's the monitor I've got I think

lavish kraken
#

what

#

ok

covert glade
#

oh so add up your normal fps on all games add them together then divide by the amount of games you have your average then work of that id say

lavish kraken
#

185 fps -207 fps on fortnite

covert glade
#

the. cap at the hz to get preformsnce in other games

lavish kraken
#

i capped at 60hz

#

and it stays at 60 fps

#

it doesnt drop

#

kinda

#

very little

covert glade
#

so you have a 60hz monitor

lavish kraken
#

with screen tearing

covert glade
#

then you can only see 60fps

lavish kraken
#

es

#

yes

covert glade
#

also screen tearing i don’t think is the monitor

#

it’s your gpu

#

i think

lavish kraken
#

i have 2070 super

#

isnt it the monitor

median rivet
#

Nah screen tearing is the monitor

lavish kraken
#

yeah!

median rivet
#

It's a framerate thing vs refresh rate

lavish kraken
#

mhm

#

so

#

how do i see my fps in games i cant see my fps on?

#

like csgo and valorant

#

or ark!

#

and garrys mod

median rivet
#

Press ALT and Z at the same time to get the Geforce overlay open

lavish kraken
#

o

median rivet
#

Then go into settings, hud and enable the fps counter

lavish kraken
#

OH

#

ima do csgo

#

alt + z aint workin

#

oh wait
