There is only one step that can break your PC, which is putting the cpu into the socket
Every other step of building the pc will not have that
inland pulsar
what about the gpu?
velvet summit
Let me ask you this then
Would you rather spend just $200 on a PC, or spend $500 for the exact same parts but already assembled
velvet summit
what about the gpu?
Unless you drop it, there's nothing that's gonna break
No pins to accidentally bend
Literally only the cpu socket can destroy the motherboard or cpu, depending on the cpu type you have
inland pulsar
well then what specs do u think i should get?
velvet summit
But if you make sure to put in the cpu in the right orientation, and don't drop the cpu or objects into the socket accidentally, you won't damage anything
You could ask in #building-and-recc-chat for a parts list, but I expect probably a ryzen 5 5600 or something, plus maybe a used 6700xt

i like mouse accel since i play on low dpi and low sens in all my games
not windows mouse accel, a program
random osprey
you use the angle holding stuff too?
whats angle holding stuff?
wraith fern
@random osprey ok so my edpi is around 240, should i give it a try?
wraith fern
whats angle holding stuff?
gimme a sec
wraith fern
its called angle snapping
wraith fern
Dude is moving his mouse across the entire desk
whats your dpi?
my day to day dpi is 400, gaming my edpi is 240

oh that, no i typically turn it off

whats the edpi you use while gaming
wraith fern
I just got a new mouse and rn its on 800
which mouse
lone mango
Yeah its like 57
wraith fern
nice
i think mine weighs 39. its very light
id take a bit of a heavier mouse. maybe bulk this one up with more battery
lone mango
I think the wired one is like 52 or 51
wraith fern
i had sensor issues in games for months and i thought it was my mousepad. turns out mouse sensor was just dirty 💀
random osprey
whats the edpi you use while gaming
idk, i play at 400 dpi and for valorant like in-game sens of i think .5
wraith fern
ah ok mine is .6 in val
random osprey
been a while since i played val so dont remember
wraith fern
maybe ill give raw accel a try
lone mango
i had sensor issues in games for months and i thought it was my mousepad. turns ...
Wonder if mine is already dirty or something
It just be not responding
random osprey
accel is good for flicks/180's so you dont have to do like 80 swipes to turn around
wraith fern
Wonder if mine is already dirty or something
i got a q tip wet and just wiped down the sensor, worked great
wraith fern
accel is good for flicks/180's so you dont have to do like 80 swipes to turn aro...
thats what i struggle with. ill end up doing a 140 instead of a 180
raw accel isnt bannable, right?
random osprey
nah
and if it is, then it does a lot better of not being banned in comparison to logitech ghub
wraith fern
ghub gets people banned???
random osprey
sometimes but they can just put in a ticket
wraith fern
i hate ghub with a passion. most pos app ever.
it just wouldnt detect the mouse sometimes
random osprey
more notorious of getting people banned in games with easy anticheat
like rainbow six
wraith fern
more notorious of getting people banned in games with easy anticheat
fortnite?
fortnite r6 and apex use it right
lone mango
What I like about logitech is how you can write the profile to the mouse
random osprey
ye
lone mango
Then you dont even need the app
wraith fern
ghub sucks bro
random osprey
easy bypass is to just close the app or use the other logitech app that they have
or just pray and hope that easy anticheat doesnt want to ruin your day
random osprey
that too. i have all my mouse program startups disabled
pliant berry
I don't need the photos, i've witnessed it
lone mango
I got the g502 x because it was quite a bit lighter than the hero but man my brothers pulsar was a different level
But I just wrote the profile to the mouse so I can have the same dpi on linux
Im gonna return the 502x
lone mango
Lighter version of the hero
wraith fern
ah ok. i see that
lone mango
121 to low 90s
A pretty big difference but this pulsar is less than half of a hero which is huge
wraith fern
g502s will always be heavy
lone mango
Also it takes forever for ghub to start up
So that onboard memory feature is seriously goated i never have to use that app again
Something im noticing about the x2a is that its thinner than the x2h my brother has
Like I can tilt this mouse left and right but i dont remember that happening with my brothers mouse when i tried it for a bit
Maybe the 502x is so wide that i unintentionally put more weight on the sides than on the center without noticing
And that habit is now more noticable here because the mouse is smaller and lighter
Oh wow so its actually not that. my brothers mouse doesnt rock left and right because its a little bit wider in the rear

Now THIS is why we love HUB
Heh, reflex 2 the real game changer like I thought
Playing a game at 130ms latency would be WILD
devout forum
Painful you mean?
mortal grail
It would make me feel like I'm playing on a game from like 1991 dude
So much for my $10K computer
Can't run the game without feeling like I'm playing on a phone when I press a key
We moved to SSD's to rid that latency
Glad to see I was right about reflex being the heavy lifter for frame gen
mortal grail
On newer games it can cause issues
But like windows in general
Huge uptick
Playing multiplayer felt ancient 15 years ago compared to today
You'd wait like a minute between everything
And the context is really essential here
You buy a flagship pc
You expect progression, not regression
Here's another example
Many people can't stand over 100ms ping
storm narwhal
Playing a game at 130ms latency would be WILD
If I wanted latency I'd use a VPN to like
Another country
mortal grail
Yeah exactly where I was going
atomic mist
Why would you even mention 100ms ping 
mortal grail
You basically create a latency overhead like bad ping
mortal grail
Why would you even mention 100ms ping <:monkaGun:921165579736449084>
Half the people I play with overseas give me 200 dude
storm narwhal
Me when Australian with 200+ ping on Microsoft servers
storm narwhal
They refuse to build servers there
atomic mist
I only play on 10ms ping servers so if I go negative I can only blame hackers on the enemy team
storm narwhal
High skill + far servers = no games
mortal grail
But imagine playing with now 330ms latency
atomic mist
Everyone else is hacking im the best screw you guys
storm narwhal
But imagine playing with now 330ms latency
With packet loss
atomic mist
Packet loss 
mortal grail
Anyway my point is, reflex 2 fixed the problem with frame gen
In a couple years time we will probably see this become complete mainstream
storm narwhal
We'll see
mortal grail
We are now approaching a positive improvement despite "fake" frames
storm narwhal
I am still skeptical but I'm not opposed
mortal grail
The downsides are minimizing to effectively nothing
atomic mist
Im agreeing with Felix’s take. It’s gunna be the new big thing
mortal grail
I am still skeptical but I'm not opposed
I think that's fair. Mfg looks awful. But FG we said the same thing, now FG looks ok
In 2 years
60 series
MFG will likely look good
atomic mist
Barely adds any input lg
mortal grail
They'll have something newer that is the new alpha beta test
MMFG maybe
Multi multi frame gen
💀
And the old tech matures
mortal grail
I would've never have said this had reflex 2 not existed
I would be bashing frame gen hardcore
proud jackal
atomic mist
Lemme buy some Corsair ram and some Samsung nvmes to run my frame gen
mortal grail
Fat rip
Only the FE is worth it then
Since that basically confirms all prices
And even then this gen is still a hard skip I feel
proud jackal
mortal grail
Only the best buy msrp cards will represent if anything an uplift
storm narwhal
6000 series let's go
mortal grail
I would be willing to bet money this is representative
Also no surprise the 4090 is not slower
Eh msn
Stupid hosting link
proud jackal
What's going to annoy me more is
Wouldn't be surprised if Newegg ended up doing bundle only sales for the 5090 saying you need THIS psu as well
atomic mist
But you need this psu
proud jackal
mortal grail
Gonna feel really bad for anyone buying not FE
There's just no hope in sight for making them look good
storm narwhal
What if instead of founders edition FE stood for Freaky Edition

reflex 2 is amazing
mortal grail
There are others that "look expensive" and are actual ewaste, not the tomahawk
elfin mural
working amazingly
mortal grail
reflex 2 is amazing
I told u, it fixes the issues with frame gen
Though system latency is still a big concern with it
mortal grail
I mean you can't, what I mean is that native framerate will always dictate actual system latency
elfin mural
yes
mortal grail
So any reaction based games don't benefit due to overhead
mortal grail
HUB's dlss 4 video is excellent, go watch it
mortal grail
It summarises MFG perfectly
tranquil pebble
There is an FPS game I can get 1000 fps in lol
tranquil pebble
surprised that doesn't cause macrostutters
elfin mural
lmao
the cpu tried its best
probably what's keeping it going
dlss 4 with much less ghosting
ooh more advanced single frame gen is universal for 40 series and up
(then again blackwell is literally ada refresh)
tranquil pebble
rtx is overpriced as hell
also people really need to stop buying from scalpers or this problem will never end
mortal grail
ooh more advanced single frame gen is universal for 40 series and up
The penny drops
Yes this means normal FG is kinda usable now
elfin mural
i gotta give props to nvidia for this lol
mortal grail
The transformation model + reflex 2 fixed most of last gen FG issues
So like, it's an option now
Native render latency pending more improvements but still
elfin mural
considering i have a 4050
mortal grail
This is why I keep raving about the software of next gen
The hardware is bs
It's just engineering prowess on display
(Cool to look at but everyone loses)
elfin mural
i'll use it when i feel the need to
mortal grail
I'm compelled to consider changing the board in my laptop to a 40 card tbh
elfin mural
be careful about the fans
mortal grail
If not like a 4060m, hell 5060m looks like it could be amazing
elfin mural
but amd variant should use the same fans
elfin mural

I'll be fine

elfin mural
asus made an 18 inch tuf too

nice ig for those who don't wanna pay strix tax for large laptop
im jealous of the new upcoming optimus
elfin mural
if nvidia somehow wants to be kind enough and gives 40 mobile the same optimus
i'd be so happy
mortal grail
Man now that I think about it
Unorthodox af
But
245h/v + 5060m TUF F15
Might be the play
elfin mural
ye
mortal grail
Gaming on low power might actually give you hours of battery
elfin mural
but i learned to enjoy with what i already have
mortal grail
Hey I love the one I got
But I might work out a trade somehow
Then I can look forward to mfg in 2 years
When THAT makes sense
elfin mural
im starting to believe in frame gen
mortal grail
But I'm pining for a laptop change somewhat
mortal grail
Mainly cos new gen battery life is amazing
elfin mural
it might be viable
elfin mural
because reflex 2 is
mind bogglingly good
nvidia just needs to figure out on how to make frame gen even better
devout forum
Damn I

I'm so indecisive and uncertain

I believe Felix said a 7700X is good enough for a 4080
mortal grail
I did
devout forum
but that 9800X3D is looking spiffy
BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUT price
like I hate living here with how high prices are
mortal grail
If you ask me, long term
devout forum
it's actually painful
mortal grail
9800X3D + 7900 GRE/XT/9070
Sounds nicer than 7700X + 4080
But in a few months I may pivot on that
devout forum
I can get a 6800XT for 155k HUF (about half the price of a GRE)
mortal grail
Games are becoming quite cpu heavy
mortal grail
I can get a 6800XT for 155k HUF (about half the price of a GRE)
That sounds amazing tbh
devout forum
That sounds amazing tbh
the idea is 7700X and 6800XT
it'd get me by until I can really save up for the ITX 4080 build that I crave (with the X3D and the fancy stuff)

You need to stop looking at things as a stepping stone
Look for good for your price
Set yourself to that
Think about better later
elfin mural
dlss 4 works even with 30 fps base??
elfin mural
tru
but that might be what i have to settle with if i dare play heavy gaems
on my lappy

FOMO is supreme
My goal is the 4080 ITX build with all the bells and whistles
But it is something like 8 months of saving up hard for it
and I'm also thinking about giving my sister an upgrade who has a PC that's barely functional and nearly old enough to vote
mortal grail
My goal is the 4080 ITX build with all the bells and whistles
But it is somethin...
If you want that then live with what you got now man
7600x + 6700xt is like peak 1080p rn
Don't add complicated steps between, just save
Take it from the guy who at one point was upgrading with EVERY release
I lost a fair bit in the process

7600x + 6700xt is like peak 1080p rn
that's why my SECOND purchase will be a 24G4X
