The main reason why people opt for PS/2 (besides lower latency) is n-key rollover. This means you can send simultaneous input from any number of keys on your keyboard at once. This is mostly of benefit to gamers, where you often have many keys depressed at the same time, and all must be registered instantaneously.

Because there is a lot of misinformation out there.
Notably about input lag and esports.
In fact, most game developers since 2007 (Unreal Engine 3) weren't aware of the increase latency that we now see in games as they get heavier to render in terms of graphics. Only last year, it became publicly acknowledged and recognized by the majority of game developers that games running on UE3 and now Unreal Engine 4 have more input lag than FPS games from previous generations.

so?

#

we weren't arguing against higher framerates

#

not like we went around saying "hey you should run your game at 24fps"

#

besides, frame rate isn't everything

#

you care about 1% and .1% lows

#

you keep acting like we know nothing

noble oak Apr 9, 2021, 1:46 AM

#

If you want to reduce stuttering, you need your frame rate to run steady above your max frame rate.
Stuttering that occurs in Valorant is caused by network code and can be fixed by capping frame rate to a lower amount.
But doing this in some other games can cause the opposite effect

static pecan Apr 9, 2021, 1:47 AM

my 2600 would struggle to hit 200fps sometimes

noble oak Apr 9, 2021, 1:55 AM

#

Usually, in multiplayer games the CPU matters because of networking.
A game like LawBreakers or Unreal Tournament 2014 that require a lot of advanced player movements (PhysX/Havok) and tons of projectiles are quite heavy to handle even by a single powerful server. Several years ago, this stuff was fake and hardcoded. It wasn't this demanding on the hardware.

The how doesn't matter to the average player. The only thing that matters to most people is the simple fact that esports games ARE more CPU dependent than other titles. That's the entire point

#

Stop trying to seem smarter than everyone else in the room because it only makes you seem more immature

noble oak Apr 9, 2021, 2:06 AM

#

The big problem with your argument is that esports are created by gaming communities.
Games can be designed to become esports, they only become an esport if they succeed.
There is no reason whatsoever for esports games to be more intensive on CPUs specifically.

#

You should refer to multiplayer games and that's it.

crimson scroll Apr 9, 2021, 2:07 AM

#

don't tell me how to refer to esports titles

#

i'm clearly talking about the ones that succeed

#

so why does it matter how they become esports titles?

noble oak Apr 9, 2021, 2:08 AM

#

Because you claimed that esports titles are more CPU oriented.
Which is hot air

crimson scroll Apr 9, 2021, 2:08 AM

#

the examples i gave are all very popular games

#

it's not

#

now you're trying to be pedantic

and i never said that esports titles HAD to be more cpu intensive

#

i said they were

noble oak Apr 9, 2021, 2:09 AM

LawBreakers was fast-paced FPS with high end graphics.
You need to have a solid gaming PC, period, to run it well.
But for a game like Valorant. The graphics are much lighter.
It's not that the CPU matters more. It's just that the game is graphically less demanding.
That doesn't mean you need less of the GPU, because for esports you need high frame rate so you do need the best GPU around to max it out.

crimson scroll Apr 9, 2021, 2:09 AM

#

there is a difference between correlation and confounding factors

#

you'd know this if you took a statistics class

#

by your own admission, lawbreakers is dead

#

so who cares?

#

and you don't need the best gpu

#

i just told you how i improved framerate massively by upgrading my cpu only

#

il'l give another anecdote-went from a 1060 to a 1080 to a 1080ti, saw ZERO improvement in csgo framerates

#

besides, most people who care about being super competitive turn down their settings to low

#

which you even pointed out in your own website

#

which reduces the importance of a strong gpu even more....

#

your argument actually sucks

#

"It's not that the CPU matters more. It's just that the game is graphically less demanding."

#

this is one of the stupidest things i've ever read

#

read it again

and tell me what it means

#

what does the GRAPHICS processing unit do?

Most video games are built to run at 30-60 frame per seconds.
However, for competitive multiplayer games the standard is much higher.
And only certain multiplayer games will be designed with ''lighter graphics'' in mind.
While other multiplayer games will offer High End graphics.
But only the games with lighter graphics will be able to run at 250+ fps steady.

crimson scroll Apr 9, 2021, 2:15 AM

#

"Most video games are built to run at 30-60 frame per seconds." huh????

#

also, the stuff you're saying about lighter graphics is true....so?

#

that's just agreeing with my point

#

also

#

i run plenty of games at way more than 60fps

#

in fact i can't remember the last game i played at 60fps

#

oh, you said "competitive multiplayer game". clearly not an esports title.

#

obviously those aren't more cpu dependent, they're just less gpu dependent

#

but esports titles? nah, those don't exist

noble oak Apr 9, 2021, 2:18 AM

#

Lighter graphics does not mean less GPU demanding.
It means that your frame rate will be able to reach higher numbers and, in result, reduce input latency.

#

You are slightly confusing the two

crimson scroll Apr 9, 2021, 2:19 AM

#

no, i'm not

noble oak Apr 9, 2021, 2:19 AM

#

Most video games these days are first developed for gaming consoles.
And in second for PC.
So yeah, they aim for 30-60fps

crimson scroll Apr 9, 2021, 2:20 AM

#

no, they don't

#

if you have "lighter graphics", it takes less processing power to render a frame by the gpu...therefore less demanding on the gpu

#

what YOU are confusing is the difference between more or less demanding, and full gpu utilization

#

just because two games both run at 100% gpu load does not mean they run at the same framerate

noble oak Apr 9, 2021, 2:22 AM

#

Dude, I worked on Thief 4, Deus Ex Mankind Divided, Deadliest Warrior Battlegrounds, Batman Arkham Knight.
If I tell you that we. game developers, aim for 30-60fps, it's because it's a cold hard fact.
And I don't care if you don't like it. It just is. And that has not changed in 20 years

crimson scroll Apr 9, 2021, 2:22 AM

noble oak Apr 9, 2021, 2:25 AM

#

Esport stands for electronic sport.
That started with Quake, Counter-Strike, Star Craft ,etc.
But over the years, notably in recent years the buzzword esports changed in meaning.
And now, esport doesn't just represent skillful games. Why? Because esports league weren't going to make much money with just the skillful games. Not enough players were playing them or liked them.
So, quickly for business reasons... esports slowly started to become more and more inclusive.
And today, any game played in multiplayer can now be referred to, like it or not, as esport.

#

So when you say esports titles... it makes no sense whatsoever

crimson scroll Apr 9, 2021, 2:26 AM

#

i think you're just a salty old man who doesn't like that league is an esport

#

also, i don't like fortnite, but i don't claim it's not skillful

#

besides

#

if games aren't skillful

#

the esports today at least

#

then how come there is such still a huge skill barrier to becoming pro?

#

why doesn't everyone just go pro

#

oh wait

#

also, nobody refers to borderlands 2 as an esport

#

it's a multiplayer game

noble oak Apr 9, 2021, 2:27 AM

#

If you compress the skill gap, then you get a huge pool of randomness.

crimson scroll Apr 9, 2021, 2:27 AM

#

....and?

noble oak Apr 9, 2021, 2:27 AM

#

Doesn't mean it's skillful.

crimson scroll Apr 9, 2021, 2:28 AM

#

#

i'm sorry you're not good enough anymore to be pro

#

and that back when you played esports, there was no money

#

besides

#

english is an evolving language

#

noble oak Apr 9, 2021, 2:28 AM

#

Again, I really don't know where you take your info.

crimson scroll Apr 9, 2021, 2:28 AM

#

so what if esports now doesn't mean what esports then meant

#

maybe YOU should update your definition

#

there are professional leagues for cs, league, fortnite, valorant, rocket league, r6siege, dota, etc.

#

all of the games i have mentioned meet the criteria for esports

#

you are trying to make a case that esports now could include a myriad of games that i did not mention

#

but i didn't mention them, so it doesn't matter in relation to the argument about cpu dependence

noble oak Apr 9, 2021, 2:30 AM

#

Esports, according to the recent use of it by businesses, can now include games like Magic Duels or Chess.
Games that previously wouldn't have been commonly accepted as electronic sports

crimson scroll Apr 9, 2021, 2:31 AM

#

so?

noble oak Apr 9, 2021, 2:31 AM

#

This is directly linked to the use of ''cyber athletes'' and what that meant

crimson scroll Apr 9, 2021, 2:31 AM

#

first.

#

my original sentence said "most esports titles care more about cpu anyways"

#

second

#

nobody cares about cpu or gpu for hearthstone, chess, etc. because they are not framerate dependent to play well

noble oak Apr 9, 2021, 2:32 AM

#

Same reason why there is still an on going debate about if CHESS is a sport or just a 1 vs 1 multiplayer board game.

crimson scroll Apr 9, 2021, 2:32 AM

#

so you shouldn't even bring them up in argument

#

third

#

nobody brought up cyber athletes but you

#

fourth

#

i am not a business and my usage of esports is not necessarily tied to how some consortium or association may define it

#

fifth

noble oak Apr 9, 2021, 2:33 AM

#

Esports = played by esports athletes.
There is nothing athletic in Chess or LoL.

crimson scroll Apr 9, 2021, 2:33 AM

#

i'm done with this argument. you may want to reflect on how everybody in this chat had something contrary to say to you. Maybe it really is you

noble oak Apr 9, 2021, 2:33 AM

#

So you can see how messed up the esports culture is right now

#

And for the record, I worked on League of Legends...

#

😬

#

🤪

static pecan Apr 9, 2021, 2:35 AM

#

And good for you, glad you got the opportunity, but that doesn't somehow make you better than everyone else.

noble oak Apr 9, 2021, 2:39 AM

#

Like I explained earlier, the meaning of esports changes all the time.
I didn't make up its definition. And it's not a static definition.
League of Legends was once laughed at, because it's not because a game is competitive that it makes it a sport.
It's not because you make money by playing a game that it makes it an esport either.
But as esports became more and more inclusive, LoL became accepted as an actual esports title.

#

Today, multiplayer games and esports titles are synonymous.

#

That was not always the case

#

Like I said, same reason why Chess is not accepted as a Sport everywhere.

#

It's a game. Doesn't inherently makes it a sport.
A square is a rectangle. But a rectangle isn't a square.

static pecan Apr 9, 2021, 2:42 AM

#

So basically, LoL is an esport sentry

noble oak Apr 9, 2021, 2:42 AM

#

Today yes. According to 2021 culture

#

Personally, I don't agree with that school of thoughts

static pecan Apr 9, 2021, 2:43 AM

#

noble oak Apr 9, 2021, 2:43 AM

Yes.

#

Because it means that there is a huge logical flaw in that reasoning

#

making League of Legends just a multiplayer strategy game. Not an esport

static pecan Apr 9, 2021, 2:44 AM

#

But it is an esport

noble oak Apr 9, 2021, 2:44 AM

#

How?

#

The word sport implies that there is a physical exertion.

#

Which is why we use terms such as esports athlete

#

I'm sure most people will desperately want to buy and build an expensive High End PC between 2K-5K CND
But it's really just a trap.

The average price for a PC, realistically, should be between $1,200.00 CND - $1,800.00 CND.
That's where you'll get the most value for your money.

Trying to figure to put bottom rad and gpu in horizontal, and out 120 rad on top, so that i have space to put pump bit i dont think there is enough space on top,

#

Heatsink to pcb, maybe around 3cm or more... I have msi xtrio model

#

3cm i think

#

If i bring down the psu a little bit it will hit gpu because i have a very long gpu pcb

#

Screenshot_20210420_160846_com.android.chrome.jpg

#

I saw these at it looks very cool

#

Bit it has short pcb gpu

#

Will it be the same using 240mm thick rad, equivalent to 240+120 slim rad?

are there no issue with vertical mount? because i have heard that there were many issues with gen 4 and that you need to put it in gen 3 otherwise the gpu wont work.

There's a PROBLEM with Riser Cables

Riser Cables and vertical GPU brackets are getting more and more popular for gaming PCs but at the same time a lot of users are reporting problems with them and we're not talking about GPU airflow.

Evan a 650w PSU will be more than enough, H510 is ok, but I would choose something with better airflow. For gaming go with a 5600x over 3700x and b550 over b450 (it's a small price difference). You would also benefit from higher speed ram which you can find for a similar price. Plus I don't see an SSD which is a must.

I'm pretty sure most laptops at that price can get 30-40 fps at minimum settings, but I dont know how much further you can push that line.

#

Just about every laptop at that price is going to have integrated graphics

#

If anything, you should wait until you can spend $1k possibly. Then you can find something with a dedicated gpu if you're lucky.

#

I think the biggest issue is finding a laptop that will atleast run the game and have storage for updates and stuff

#

everything Im seeing only has 256GB

#

So if you are fine with only having enough storage for Warzone and nothing else, almost any of them should work.
