[rancid juniper]

Right on the money

[lone mango]

Thats the ps5 pro one right

And the comparison screenshot memes

[hoary zodiac]

So

I've decided to actually spend money on a game

And it's not a AAA

I bought a real game instead

[rancid juniper]

no that one was a technical showcase

[lone mango]

Oh ok

Clearly I have never watched one

Because I think they are all mid

The only one I watched was the one for gran turismo

like 3 years ago

[rancid juniper]

Don't you hate it when the product the seller is listing enables offers but when you ask them to offer they just say "nah sorry it's a fixed price"

Why tf you enabled offers in your listing then?

man..

too much

[pliant berry]

To get you to click on it ofc

[rancid juniper]

if i was an annoying person id report it

[pliant berry]

And you are an annoying person right?

[rancid juniper]

850%/1000%

maybe?

[pliant berry]

Lol

[rancid juniper]

anyways im still looking for some rtx 4050/60 based laptops paired with ryzen for a decent price

i gotta replace my previous laptop's motherboard as its cooked

and then sell that

something like this (price is wack)

[rancid juniper]

nah thats definitely a pitcher

Deralt told me

[lone mango]

[misty sparrow]

No it was the one where they showed off Concord

And had basically nothing big

[fresh timber]

[dusk knot]

Hmmm

[rancid juniper]

anybody ever bought/used a refurb laptop before?

[mental yoke]

yea

[rancid juniper]

i never bought a refurbished product

[mental yoke]

i got one on amazon

a lenovo thinkpad refurb with w10 pro oen

[rancid juniper]

how was it, did it look new? No cracks, dents?

did it run well?

[mental yoke]

its still working great

its running my cam system as a backup

[rancid juniper]

did it come with everything?

[mental yoke]

i e had it like 6 years

wait

lemme check but yea it had eveyrthing

[rancid juniper]

i see

[mental yoke]

2018

[rancid juniper]

wow nice

[mental yoke]

i needed it for school originally cus my alienware was heavy asf with the brick and lasted like 30 mins without it

that thing still does a good 6-9 hours off power

[hoary zodiac]

My work laptop was like $80 for the unit + upgrades

[mental yoke]

i think ive run like slay the spire on it

[rancid juniper]

discount pro

[mental yoke]

its just a beater tho

think it was 199

[hoary zodiac]

It had no ram and battery

[rancid juniper]

😳

[hoary zodiac]

I had spare ddr4 and I was going to replace the batt anyways

So it was a banger deal

[rancid juniper]

not bad still

[hoary zodiac]

One of the ram channels don't work so

I only have 8GB of ram for now

Not that I need 16GB

I can always get a 16gb sodimm

It's Kaby Lake R so it doesn't care about ram freq

Single channel sucks but oh well

I still have a lot of headroom even with 8GB ram

4GB ram usage on average

I haven't really maxed out the ram ever

[rancid juniper]

yea meanwhile im trying to find a real good efficient cpu paired with a capable gpu for 1080p gaming

not easy finding one for $<600 so far

[hoary zodiac]

not in 2025 💀

[mental yoke]

legion go

[rancid juniper]

Ryzen AI 7 350 is around that but it doesn't meet the criteria

[rancid juniper]

i dont want a handheld

[hoary zodiac]

what about zen 3 + a 3070

[mental yoke]

dock it

never look at it

[hoary zodiac]

actually eh

[pliant berry]

Steam deck

[rancid juniper]

eh

[hoary zodiac]

zen 3 + 4060

for more power efficiency

[pliant berry]

You want a handheld

[rancid juniper]

for 600?

[hoary zodiac]

I mean

[pliant berry]

You will have a handheld

[hoary zodiac]

It's doable used

[rancid juniper]

im fine with used components, not laptops

lol

[mental yoke]

legion go is a solid desktop replcement lol

[hoary zodiac]

meh

I'd rather get a laptop

[mental yoke]

me too

[rancid juniper]

i find the laptop market to be shady af

[mental yoke]

but they said 600

[rancid juniper]

thats just me tho

[hoary zodiac]

I'd rather have the better heatpipes

I'm not really that much of a fan of handhelds

they're not really that practical outside of being a gaming device

[rancid juniper]

look at this lie for example

beats RTX 4050?

💀

[mental yoke]

prolly

[hoary zodiac]

maybe on Linux

[rancid juniper]

it doesn't

it does trade blows with the 3050

[hoary zodiac]

It's also a HP so

they're usually pretty crap

they're locked down as hell

[mental yoke]

its also just 600 find something and go or save ur money

[hoary zodiac]

just $600

I remember when my whole pc was < $600

[mental yoke]

listen boomer

[hoary zodiac]

might actually not be that much slower than this pos laptop

[rancid juniper]

bro, 600 is quite alot

[hoary zodiac]

is the RX 6550M faster than a RX 570?

[rancid juniper]

im just trying to find a good priced lappy

[rancid juniper]

dunno

[hoary zodiac]

see

[rancid juniper]

but that 4gb vram it got is mid

lmfao

[hoary zodiac]

if it's worse than my desktop from 2018

it's dogcrap

[rancid juniper]

real

[hoary zodiac]

maybe for $400 sure

$600 is a scam

[tranquil pebble]

I have started finding my email address to be banned from games and services I never used before. Contacting support ends with them saying strriaght up they can not help me. Any advice?

[rancid juniper]

thing should be worth like $350

[mental yoke]

new email

yw

[hoary zodiac]

oh it's around 6500 XT perf

so it's what

20% faster than a 570?

jesus christ that's still slow as hell for $600

[tranquil pebble]

Have companies started blacklisting email addresses or something?

[hoary zodiac]

vram also gimps it

[mental yoke]

uhh… thats too broad a question

[hoary zodiac]

yeah this thing is actually comparable to a RX 570

💀

RX 570 XT if you will

[mental yoke]

and companies aren’t all conspiring together. usually

[tranquil pebble]

or rather... preemptive banning of ones that have been in tons of database leaks

[mental yoke]

… no

[hoary zodiac]

They don't Steve to troll

[tranquil pebble]

because I am banned from multiple sevices for "compromised account" when I never had an account on those services

[mental yoke]

you should just lose that email prolly

[tranquil pebble]

maybe so, probably will cause me more problems to keep using it for new sign ups.

[pliant berry]

It’s practically impossible to not have your email compromised eventually

[rancid juniper]

best you can do is either switch emails or more commonly change your password

[mental yoke]

what lol

[dusk knot]

https://youtu.be/10HaPjST114?si=uZUF3wAVput1FcjF

[tranquil pebble]

changing my passwords usually ends with me getting locked out

[rancid juniper]

oof

[hoary zodiac]

I hate force equations

[pliant berry]

Not even, just having accounts on websites could get it leaked

[tranquil pebble]

and no password manager I have tried seems to work

[worn wave]

important to note that this isn't exactly a Witcher 4 "trailer". It's just them showing off the new UE5 tech in a Witcher 4 context

[mental yoke]

witcher 4

?

[mental yoke]

ah

i dont even like witcher

[pliant berry]

For more secure accounts I usually restrict them to 4-5 website accounts per email, all with hardware 2fa, cycle passwords and only login about once every 4 months lol

[dusk knot]

I am aware

The game won't be as good

[tranquil pebble]

my brain would explode trying to keep track of any accounts doing that

I cant seem to figure out a way that is both secure, and easy enough for me to not forget everything.

There is no point in securing an account if it means permanently losing access to it.

[pliant berry]

Well for keeping track of emails and passwords i just use a self hosted password manager. Vaultwarden is very nice

Otherwise I would’ve lost track of the 200+ accounts and 20+ emails long ago xD

[tranquil pebble]

Is this the official source of it? https://github.com/dani-garcia/vaultwarden

[dusk knot]

We can't trust anyone

[worn wave]

Says it's 4k60 but even discounting YouTube compression it looks like heavy upscaling to me. If it's talented devs with modified UE5 I could see it workijg

so press on

[dusk knot]

What are you going to do with all of this?

[hoary zodiac]

Nothing

I'm going into software engineering

[upper rain]

design physics simulations

[dusk knot]

Wow

[rancid juniper]

he's learning all this to create a teabagging aircraft

i know because he told me personally

[hoary zodiac]

It's not even relevant for my discipline unless I'm modelling how objects interact in the real world

[dusk knot]

I hope you use it

[hoary zodiac]

I'm taking all the electrical and software subjects so

It's never going to get used

[dusk knot]

Useless then.....talk about "it's good for you to have a well rounded education". What a waste of time

[hoary zodiac]

Nah it's more like

It's useless for software and electrical majors

All the other majors use it

[dusk knot]

Useless for you

I hope your brain can retain the information after awhile lol

[hoary zodiac]

It doesn't

That's what computers are for

[tranquil pebble]

https://dontasktoask.com/

[pastel smelt]

alright then

[north crescent]

Either just vaultwarden server or KeePass with SyncThing (self hosted sync)/gDrive

[tranquil pebble]

vaultwarden looks promising ngl

[north crescent]

I do KeePass + gDrive, prolly moving to Syncthing at some point rather than gDrive. But dont have much urgency cuz it works and doesnt really compromise my security (if someone got access to my gDrive, well they got access to my email).

Mainly just wanted smth that doesnt need a server on always

[mental yoke]

im hungy

[hoary zodiac]

Based syncthing user

[north crescent]

Yeah rn I just use it for Obsidian notes syncing

[pastel smelt]

@dawn fractal I recently made a Newegg refund, and since then I've gotten a new card from the original payment method when making the refund. Customer support told me my only other option was store credit. I settled on that, thinking there was no other choice, but a few days later i read Newegg's return policy, apparently they have an option to mail a check if original payment method is unavailable.

I contacted customer support again, explaining what I found out. The agent understood, and said since it's rare to be asked for a check, some of their agents didn't know about it.

Due to the fact I'd already recieved the store credit/gift card balance, and they said they would mail me a check, am I still able to use the gift card balance while waiting to be mailed the check?

@tranquil pebble your fault for sending the link ong

[mental yoke]

you know what is not fun?

driving a battleship or oil tanker

big boats

[hoary zodiac]

Nobody operates battleships anymore

[tranquil pebble]

I mean, even internally the layout is good. It has two NVMe slots, a solid cooler on it, easy to replace battery, etc

[mental yoke]

yea its dumb

[hoary zodiac]

Russia operates a ""Battlecruiser""

The US has all of its Iowas as museum ships

[mental yoke]

alienware gives me the tech schematics to break off the keyboard and mouse and display. its nice asf

[hoary zodiac]

They can be reactivated but at that point they have to be losing a war pretty hard to have to bring out the museum ships

[tranquil pebble]

if you want stuff like that go with Framework... they will even let you play with the keyboard firmware

[mental yoke]

nah

[hoary zodiac]

Oh wait

The USS Iowa is still in reserves

Nvm it's a museum ship in reserves

[tranquil pebble]

in a self defense situation, nukes are more likely to be used before this ngl

[rancid juniper]

Noted

[hoary zodiac]

And the Iowas stands no chance against modern aircraft

[mental yoke]

nitros look nice

have good reviews usually

[hoary zodiac]

Without a considerable screening force

[rancid juniper]

Nerdy boats

[hoary zodiac]

They're more useful as shore bombardment

Than being an actual combat unit

[tranquil pebble]

likely to get shredded by modern subs too I would think

[pastel smelt]

where do i ask a question of a newegg staff

[mental yoke]

emaik

not discord

[pastel smelt]

other then customer support, since in the past day ive had 2 different support chats

[hoary zodiac]

A missile cruiser can snipe it from miles away

[pastel smelt]

to ask another quesiton

[hoary zodiac]

Same with carrier aircrafts

[pastel smelt]

after i just ended a chat with them

[mental yoke]

they dont care

[pastel smelt]

peak

[mental yoke]

its a rotating pool of cs agents

[pastel smelt]

also wait i can email newegg?

i legit though

[mental yoke]

yes

[pastel smelt]

thought*

only option was their on-site chatbox

which was indeed helpful

[mental yoke]

uhhh

[pastel smelt]

didnt think i could just email them

[mental yoke]

maybe it is i dunno

im sure newegg has en email for order support

[pastel smelt]

yk what they get paid to listen to me

i shouldnt care

about being annoying

[mental yoke]

i mean you should but within reason

[pastel smelt]

when i say annoying i mean frequent talks

dont mean as in just being a bad customer

just frequently asking questions, and being answered is what they are paid to do

[hoary zodiac]

Now that I think about it the USN will have to skill issue really hard

They have the largest operational navy in the world

The Russian navy is a mess so that leaves the PLA Navy as the only threat

Well there's always the russian subs

[pastel smelt]

nvm

i forgot its 10pm

and customer support

cant talk rn

[tranquil pebble]

[mental yoke]

[craggy shoal]

what am I watching

[pastel smelt]

I recently made a Newegg refund (for the 7900XTX), and since then I've gotten a new card from the original payment method when making the refund. Customer support told me my only other option was store credit. I settled on that, thinking there was no other choice, but a few days later i read Newegg's return policy, apparently they have an option to mail a check if original payment method is unavailable.

I contacted customer support again, explaining what I found out. The agent understood, and said since it's rare to be asked for a check, some of their agents didn't know about it. This is quite obviously Newegg's responsibility for telling me the only option other then original card is store credit, even though their own policy states otherwise. This had already caused a lot of disruption, considering I spent money elsewhere thinking the refund would pay for it.

Anyway, I've already moved on from the disappointment. But due to the fact I'd already received the store credit/gift card balance, and they said they would mail me a check after requesting one, am I still able to use the gift card balance while waiting to be mailed the check?

[hoary zodiac]

bloody hell

[pastel smelt]

whoever wants to read that

[craggy shoal]

Wow I'm not reading all that

[pastel smelt]

can read that

[hoary zodiac]

Anyways

[mental yoke]

newegg doesnt sit here

[pastel smelt]

i know

im asking yall

advice

[hoary zodiac]

I wonder if there's any navy in the world that can actually take on the USN

[mental yoke]

contact newegg

[craggy shoal]

Y'all show send all that into #food-and-drinks or somewhere where no one talks lol

[hoary zodiac]

Feels like you need a coalition of navies to take down the USN

[pastel smelt]

they said they would switch refund method from store credit to mailing a check, but they already gave store credit in gift cards

while waiting for a check to be mailed

[mental yoke]

okay

[pastel smelt]

is it ethically responsible

to just

spend gc money

[hoary zodiac]

Like

Even if you combine navies

[pastel smelt]

will they get mad or can i be like

[hoary zodiac]

That still takes time

[pastel smelt]

"you didnt say not to spend store credit while waiting for the check"

as a defense

[craggy shoal]

bro just send the email

[mental yoke]

are you asking if you can commit fraud?

[hoary zodiac]

And the USN can take out the spread out naval forces of a hypothetical coalition navy

[pastel smelt]

vro

what is their email

the only method i know of

[craggy shoal]

idk it's somewhere

[pastel smelt]

is their on-site chatbox

[hoary zodiac]

Kinda impressive how massive the USN is

[pastel smelt]

ive been searching for that ;erm:

[hoary zodiac]

Compared to the other powers

[pastel smelt]

not really fraud

[craggy shoal]

https://kb.newegg.com/contact-us

[pastel smelt]

they never specified that i shouldnt use

the gift card money

[mental yoke]

okay

[pastel smelt]

while waiting for it to be replaced with a check

[mental yoke]

thats called fraud

[pastel smelt]

nowhere here does it include an email

[pastel smelt]

ill ask them tomorrow ♥️

[craggy shoal]

this is how you email them. No it's not an actual email. It's a form that sends them an email after you fill in the information and click "Continue"

I feel like I'm at work explaining this rn lol

[fresh timber]

i wish i knew about this sooner.. i deadas would have swapped to am5 that day

[pastel smelt]

this form doesnt send them an email

it opens a chatbox

with newegg bot

[mental yoke]

help my computer sounds weird

[pastel smelt]

and if you ask a detailed question

it just puts a support agent

on line

that is NOT an email

[craggy shoal]

[e-mail] nvm it doesn't work

[pastel smelt]

thanks

[hoary zodiac]

DM the neweggservice account on discord

That's all we can tell you

[craggy shoal]

Customer service isn't hard. Just as long as you can get a hold of a person lol (I would know. I work in this field)

[hoary zodiac]

We're not customer support we can't help you except tell you to contact customer support

[rancid juniper]

doesn't matter

[opaque sedge]

Get a reframework mod and disable capcom’s crappy drm and give my cpu some rest

[rancid juniper]

prioritze better fps

also why FSR 3 quality?

[fresh timber]

my 7700xt is doing better

[fresh timber]

fps

duh

[rancid juniper]

im pulling high fps with RT on at native

on my 7800xt

[fresh timber]

i always use fsr3 quality cause i cant tell the diffrence

[rancid juniper]

what

[lone mango]

Rt settings do more than fsr

Take his settings

[fresh timber]

my gpu is also using 100w or less

[opaque sedge]

Maybe ur system rendering in a lower resolution is making the game more cpu bound?

[pastel smelt]

they could sound like the most friendly people ever

yet be the least helpful

of all time

[opaque sedge]

But quality upscaling shouldn’t be that significant i think

The 9070xt?

[fresh timber]

yes

[opaque sedge]

Its not using 300 watts?

[rancid juniper]

try to mess with the window options (Fullscreen/Borderless)

[fresh timber]

gta scks

[opaque sedge]

Sounds strange if u have ur fps unlocked

[opaque sedge]

Does it happen in other games?

[fresh timber]

no

[lone mango]

Kinda lol

[fresh timber]

raft was pulling more fps

[opaque sedge]

Likely a driver issue then

[fresh timber]

and using more wattts

[lone mango]

Online is just a buncha mini jobs

[fresh timber]

should have went 5070ti

[rancid juniper]

that actually happened to me, probably a bug as the framerate dips like crazy with low usage on borderless

[lone mango]

Like go work irl instead

[rancid juniper]

setting it to fullscreen fixed it

[rancid juniper]

you probably might get the ultimate racers package

dont think you like street fighter heh

[fresh timber]

what is my gpu doing

im getting high fps. but at 80w?

[opaque sedge]

Wonky drivers prolly

[rancid juniper]

maybe

its fixed now with the recent drivers

never happened again

[fresh timber]

9070xt sucks

[opaque sedge]

Did anything else break tho?

[rancid juniper]

not that I know of?

bro whats going on with this dude's card just change your screen setting

[hoary zodiac]

I'll take it thanks

[opaque sedge]

Is it true recent nvidia driver updates gave a perf bump to the 50 series?

[fresh timber]

no i can never allow anybody to have such slop

[hoary zodiac]

yeah yeah yeah

[opaque sedge]

I just wanna know if the 5070 got a significant gain over the 4070 super

[fresh timber]

its funny even at 80-100w im pulling80-100 fps

efficency king?

[rancid juniper]

why is it so hard to find a proper RTX + Ryzen laptop combo?

i dont want it with intel bruh

[fresh timber]

but intel is good

this gen

[hoary zodiac]

did you turn on MSAA?

[rancid juniper]

the core ultra combos are RIDICULOUS

[hoary zodiac]

GTA V on max settings is notoriously unoptimized

[lone mango]

[fresh timber]

im using fsr native

[opaque sedge]

Ryzen reminds me

[rancid juniper]

rockstar being lazy again ig

[fresh timber]

fsr nat ive gives more fps than fsr quality

[opaque sedge]

I got a case for my steam deck

[hoary zodiac]

I ran the game at 1440p adjusted ultra on a 5700XT fine

100+fps

[rancid juniper]

more resources are utilized because of increased resolution something is wrong here

gpu is just not doing anything

[lone mango]

My rx 580 ran it fine

[hoary zodiac]

This is why you don't crank everything up

[hoary zodiac]

can confirm

my 570 ran it at 1440 high

[rancid juniper]

not bad

[sinful blade]

Slightly no, but I can’t really do much about it

I need to come up with $600 in 4 days

[lone mango]

bro but why play medium on a new card bro
bro this is a new card

[rancid juniper]

is that Legacy or enhanced?

[hoary zodiac]

max settings has a lot of diminishing returns settings

[misty sparrow]

It’s enhanced

There’s ray tracing options present

[hoary zodiac]

you can have a significant frame drop for no visual gains

[lone mango]

Every game ever

[hoary zodiac]

you can still play at ultra

[opaque sedge]

Hmm wilds has this weird thing where if u dont turn of antialiasing before using upscalers the aliasing tech and upscalers will work at the same time making wilds look ever crappier try turning AA off completely and then upscale

[fresh timber]

fullscreen doesnt do anything

[rancid juniper]

im talking about boomer's RX 570

[hoary zodiac]

you just have to turn the stupid settings down

like MSAA

MSAA tanks fps

[fresh timber]

prob legacy sense 570 cant raytrace

[rancid juniper]

^

[misty sparrow]

https://tenor.com/view/beer-gif-3080179580444295005

[hoary zodiac]

what's a sense 570

[rancid juniper]

i have MSAA set to 2x?

i think

[opaque sedge]

Damn even with proper employment thats a tough deadline

[rancid juniper]

wait

nvm

[hoary zodiac]

yeah 2x doesn't tank it too hard

better off using FSR

to upscale

[fresh timber]

ra

this is wild

i had t oconfirm overlay isnt buggin

[opaque sedge]

Fsr has a native AA tool as well right?

Like dlaa

[fresh timber]

yes, just set it to native

[rancid juniper]

check tuning, lemme see something

[nocturne flicker]

With proper employment that is practically impossible. Most employers pay week or biweekly

[hoary zodiac]

probably better than MSAA

actually

[hoary zodiac]

I wonder how much better it'd run

[fresh timber]

im stcok minus PL

[hoary zodiac]

if you turn off MSAA and upscale with FSR instead

[rancid juniper]

lower voltage by -50mv

[fresh timber]

u know something is wrong when every other game runs just fine

[fresh timber]

and u think t hats going to fix it using 85w

[rancid juniper]

and maybe push max freq by 100

[hoary zodiac]

don't max it out 👍

[rancid juniper]

its worth a try

[fresh timber]

why would i spend $800 on a gpu and Not max my settings

[lone mango]

I was waiting for this

[rancid juniper]

bro spent $800 on a brick

[hoary zodiac]

💀

[rancid juniper]

quite relatable

[misty sparrow]

game unoptimized lmao

[opaque sedge]

Welp hope u bought the microcenter insurance then

[hoary zodiac]

bro did not read a word

[fresh timber]

iwhy would i

[misty sparrow]

Dude just skipped to the end

[hoary zodiac]

I've been explaining why you don't max it out for the past 5 minutes

[sinful blade]

Yeah

[dusk knot]

Huh

[fresh timber]

and u start talking about a older verson of the game legacy

[opaque sedge]

Easy return in the event of hardware failure for upto two years

[hoary zodiac]

huh?

I never mentioned an older version?

[fresh timber]

im not driving in 40mins for this

yes u did

[opaque sedge]

Well if u have a micrcenter near u ofc

[fresh timber]

u cant run ehnahcned

[lone mango]

Isnt enhanced legacy but with rt

[fresh timber]

yup

[hoary zodiac]

ok

[lone mango]

Ok but you can run it without rt right

[hoary zodiac]

then turn down the settings that's not RT then

[fresh timber]

im running no rt its still poop

[lone mango]

I dont notice a difference between rt off and on in that game

[fresh timber]

gta 5 just is unoptmized

[opaque sedge]

Bricked

[fresh timber]

doesnt run well on rdna4

[hoary zodiac]

no

[rancid juniper]

im sorry but your card is cooked, you can send it to me tho

[hoary zodiac]

max settings is unoptimized

[fresh timber]

its a 9070xt

i think the devs just suck

[misty sparrow]

My brother in Christ pretend Boomer is your GF and pay close attention

[lone mango]

@rancid juniper sent screenshots a while ago with rt on and off

it looked no different

[rancid juniper]

ye

[lone mango]

ima find it

[fresh timber]

if he was my girlfriend i would be teaching him tech

[hoary zodiac]

https://tenor.com/view/wall-gif-24534315

[opaque sedge]

Dont devs need to work on making rt look good or significant?

[fresh timber]

ill lower my settings like he said and see what happens

[rancid juniper]

also send screenshots of settings too if you can

[hoary zodiac]

there are very specific settings that eat up resources for almost no gain

[opaque sedge]

Like pretty sure cdpr did for cyberpunk but even then it unnoticeable at times

[lone mango]

It was just on vs off

[fresh timber]

i crashed

[hoary zodiac]

https://gamersnexus.net/game-bench/1909-gta-v-graphics-optimization-guide

[lone mango]

Red dead 2 settings

[opaque sedge]

Ah the memories of ghost of Tsushima is coming back

[hoary zodiac]

MSAA specifically tanks fps like hell

[opaque sedge]

And my downgrade to a 4070super

[hoary zodiac]

why use MSAA when you can literally just upscale it

[fresh timber]

i would buy rdr2 but i bought raft LOL

[hoary zodiac]

with modern tech

[fresh timber]

i always use fsr

i wonder if easyanticheat will get upset if i inject fsr 4

[hoary zodiac]

probably not

[misty sparrow]

TBH $15 is $15 and at least it’s gonna go on sale soon

[hoary zodiac]

it's only on the render pipeline

[fresh timber]

anticheats will still flag stuff

[misty sparrow]

oh no did you seriously

[opaque sedge]

I regret opening reddit and discovering this sub

[hoary zodiac]

I've messed around with proton

[fresh timber]

oh its $15?

[hoary zodiac]

before rockstar trolled

[fresh timber]

when i get more money ill buy rdr2

[hoary zodiac]

you can mess around with gta

[rancid juniper]

so bro is the first person here getting a switch 2

[fresh timber]

iv been building my game libary

[hoary zodiac]

and not flag the anticheat

[fresh timber]

and its ass

[rancid juniper]

who else getting it (NOT ME)

[opaque sedge]

Theo… NOOO

[fresh timber]

seriously, why are people buying this stupid console

its bad

[hoary zodiac]

I have a 24 port gigabit switch

[rancid juniper]

1st party nintendo games

[rancid juniper]

too strong bro

[lone mango]

Must purchase product

[fresh timber]

im ngl the new mariokart looks awful

[rancid juniper]

Sonic crossworlds spits on it

[opaque sedge]

Optimized 3rd party games too but ngl are they even worth playing on the switch 😭

[lone mango]

you cant stop me from consooming

[hoary zodiac]

we went from ps5 have no games to switch 2 have no games

[fresh timber]

atleast the ps5 doesnt brick it self when you look at it wrong

[dusk knot]

Theo_Dopamine_Hit

[rancid juniper]

no actually

[lone mango]

how over is it

[opaque sedge]

Like whytf would anyone wanna play cyberpunk on 1080p upscaled 30 frames

[rancid juniper]

STICK WITH THE TRENDS

BUY THE PRODUCT

[fresh timber]

even the seamdeck can run it better

[lone mango]

THINK LATER

[hoary zodiac]

The switch is a better brick, you can chuck it easier

[fresh timber]

like JUST BUY A STEAMDECK u can play ALOT more and do ALOT more

[rancid juniper]

best mentality

frfr

[fresh timber]

it goes in the garbage faster

[lone mango]

Is this theo

[fresh timber]

@hoary zodiac now what im running all low gpu still sleeping

[hoary zodiac]

no

[hoary zodiac]

you don't blanket lower all settings

https://tenor.com/view/loading-epic-games-epic-games-gif-483864483579243705

[opaque sedge]

Steam deck gets dips below 30 in the dlc with upscalers other than the switch getting a locked framerate throughout i dont see anything else impressive

[lone mango]

2nd time linking

Will the third time work

[rancid juniper]

epic???

[fresh timber]

its unlocked excatly

[rancid juniper]

sus

[hoary zodiac]

gonna be the 5th time

[fresh timber]

im ngl if a steamdeck gets a refresh it needs a rdna4 refresh

[lone mango]

[fresh timber]

i think its time for rdna4 handhelds to exist

[rancid juniper]

you're gonna wait a while pal

[misty sparrow]

Honestly a lot of the big stuff coming to Switch 2 is stuff they couldn’t port to Switch 1 because Switch 1 was so underpowered

[lone mango]

Fsr 4 steam deck

[rancid juniper]

steamdeck probably might go for UDNA based apus

[lone mango]

[opaque sedge]

Plus steam has been getting a lot more arcady style games nintendo is known for lately so other than the classic Nintendo characters, i dont personally see the appeal with the switch

[hoary zodiac]

what about the upcoming RDZ achitecture

[lone mango]

[rancid juniper]

what?

[fresh timber]

didnt the z2 extreme just come out

[lone mango]

Its over

[hoary zodiac]

RDZ nuts

[lone mango]

Yup

[opaque sedge]

Fak u man

[rancid juniper]

damn it

[lone mango]

Thats it

[fresh timber]

they should honestly take a z2 extreme, slap rdna4 in it and call it a z2.5

[lone mango]

Over

[misty sparrow]

A lot of the games advertised on Switch 2 right now are graphics upgrades of old titles or they’re coming out on Switch 1 so what the hell is the point rn

[fresh timber]

4k with no vrr?>

[misty sparrow]

Mouse mode?

[rancid juniper]

DISCORD LOW FPS MODE

[fresh timber]

switch 2 has 4k and 1440p atleast

[misty sparrow]

Paid voice chat features?

[fresh timber]

now all they need to add is discord

[hoary zodiac]

4k?

what?

[rancid juniper]

4k on switch...

[fresh timber]

yes

[rancid juniper]

lmfao

[hoary zodiac]

on that tiny screen?

[fresh timber]

the switch 2 has 4k

[misty sparrow]

[opaque sedge]

Ur almost halfway to my number btw

[rancid juniper]

no man docked

[fresh timber]

bi dicjed'

[rancid juniper]

but still

thats gonna be like DLSS performance

for sure

[misty sparrow]

They will never add Discord VC to Switch

[rancid juniper]

XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

[hoary zodiac]

DLSS nuts

[lone mango]

Nah when its docked it runs 4k dlss perf onto a tv or something

[opaque sedge]

Nah the screen is 1080p

Supports 4k output to an external monitor

[fresh timber]

its 1080p 60 or 720p 120

[hoary zodiac]

4k

at what

5fps

[fresh timber]

yes

[hoary zodiac]

with DLSS and FG

[rancid juniper]

4k video ✅
4k gaming ❌

jkjk

or am i?

[hoary zodiac]

It's just like how the GT 730 is a 4K card

[misty sparrow]

I thought Nintendo was supposed to be the budget friendly console what the hell is this

[lone mango]

hahahaha im just kidding

[fresh timber]

120fps on esports titles like fortnite is cool atleast

[lone mango]

or am i

[rancid juniper]

vsauce theme:

[hoary zodiac]

[fresh timber]

forntite can finally stop running like poop on the switch

[lone mango]

god that borderlands guy is so annoying

i forgot his name

[hoary zodiac]

[opaque sedge]

My last proper deez nuts joke was almost 7 months ago…

[hoary zodiac]

they are NOT budget friendly

[hoary zodiac]

he said deez nuts

ban

[misty sparrow]

At least the console itself was budget friendly

[nocturne flicker]

Nintendo? Friendly?

Impossible

[rancid juniper]

ok but can it run doom the dark ages?

[opaque sedge]

Jp gave me a pity one the next month…

[misty sparrow]

now it’s expensive as hell

[rancid juniper]

thought so

mid console

[misty sparrow]

How in the world is a Switch 2 priced higher than a Steam deck

[opaque sedge]

Ban urself

[misty sparrow]

In what world is that justifiable

[fresh timber]

i seems 9070xt and gta6 problem isnt just a me problem

[nocturne flicker]

It was budget friendly because it was a hunk of junk at the hardware level even for the time

[hoary zodiac]

I think we should ban sugon instead

[opaque sedge]

@hoary zodiac btw ur approaching my number soon

U may be next

[lone mango]

great

[misty sparrow]

Next to bear witness to…deez nuts

[hoary zodiac]

sugon is a real troublemaker

[rancid juniper]

you're not getting away with it

[hoary zodiac]

he's been trolling in chat

[fresh timber]

people are willing going to buy a switch 2, remember you have to pay to us the C button

[lone mango]
