I love that I'm American and I don't know these things

I don't want to get political, but it's things like that that make me wonder why people move to America if the country the person is moving from is better (like some people from Europe or some parts of Asia to America)

Not a racist thing I swear. I'm genuinely just curious

At a minimum you'd probably need to add a payment method from whatever region you vpn to.

It is especially important in countries with their own currency that is unfortunately unstable

Random fun fact
The highways near where I live basically never catch people for speeding, and basically nobody follows the speed limit, even cops

You'll pretty much only get pulled over if you go like autobahn mode or are reckless driving or being a nuisance (too slow outside the slow lane)

nocturne flicker
#

Cops, following the speed limit? Never

velvet summit
#

While technically the law is strictly prohibiting anything above the speed limit, the speed limit is pretty much only strictly enforced in school zones

#

Everywhere else, if you're 10km/h over the cops don't care, and on the highway people are often like 20-50km/h over the speed limit

#

Actually, asides from school zones, specific vehicles also have strict speed limits, and you'll get citations for even going 1 over such as for school busses

#

School busses probably have the strictest driver responsibility
If even one of your lights are out and you didn't catch it during the daily inspection, that's a citation

Kathleen Kennedy was the President of Lucasfilm from 2012 until early 2026, personally chosen by George Lucas to oversee the expansion of the Star Wars universe after Disney acquired the studio

#

Why do I have micro stutters sometimes and it drops like 8 fps despite me having an rtx 5080 and a ryzen 9 9950x3d on beat saber

#

Could it be because I have the nvidia overlay and rivatuner?

#

My router is a WiFi 7 router that I got from the ISP

pliant berry
#

you are running wireless via wifi to the headset?

copper fable
pliant berry
#

yup

copper fable
#

Not that it has anything to do with the upload speed but I do get like 1000Mbps

#

And 5000Mbps download

#

It can be super smooth 120fps

#

Then after some time a micro stutter

#

To a point where it's annoying

pliant berry
#

After years of tinkering with it i've basically given up trying to use home wifi for those applications. best case scenario is getting a dedicated router for the pc and headset but you probably will still get some kind of stutter ocassionally

copper fable
#

I did try 120Mbps bitrate 100Mbps I think at around 92Mbps sometimes it didn't have any stutter but it did look worse

opaque sedge
#

yo can anyone hop in vc for a bit and tell me if u can hear me thru my headset's mic or not? its very faint in the settings menu for the playback

sinful blade
#

Running rivatuner can mess with stuff

#

It messed with my gpu when I put it in

grand wasp

@radiant hornet

We found what happened, Yaku should be getting a msg from @digital thunder if he hasn't already

#

I went over to their desks after my meeting w/ Intel

pliant berry
#

way back idk when i think it was recommended to use a bitrate of 80mbps or something

copper fable
#

There is one issue with that

pliant berry
copper fable
#

I can't really get any dedicated router cause not every frequency is allowed in my country

copper fable
#

It's clearly not my RTX 5080 though it does drop FPS so maybe it is?

pliant berry
#

I mean there are frequency limitations everywhere. always good to do a scan for the rf environment but proximity always helps

copper fable
#

Wait usually if the router is the limitation it's normal for the fps to drop as well despite my high end hardware?

pliant berry
#

uhh there are multiple fps readings. I don't think the base game fps would be affected too much but the transmitted fps could

copper fable
pliant berry
#

yeah that one has more to do with network performance than the game im pretty sure?

sinful blade
copper fable
#

Yeah I set it the best settings possible but it should handle it

pliant berry
#

well wifi7 also doesn't tell the whole story. sending large amounts of data consistently can bog down a router, especially when you consider many of them are passively cooled and not designed for sustained high loads

tranquil pebble
#

inb4 DLSS adapted to compensate for network lag somehow

pliant berry
#

lmao

copper fable
#

If that's true then that calms me down a bit

tranquil pebble
#

instead of frame gen you get packet gen

copper fable
#

I started to think that's my GPU that's the issue

pliant berry
#

well there were a lot of developments on those frame interpolation technologies to reduce the number of frames required to send down the network specifically for vr application

copper fable
#

So you tell me that if I wanna have consistent fps with almost no spikes I have to buy a really good router?

#

Like a very expensive one desgined for "gaming"

pliant berry
#

again, im no expert. especially considering that I was basically never able to get a good experience with pcvr over wifi but I've heard most recommend dedicated routers

copper fable
#

I guess if I use H264 or HEVC it might have less spikes

pliant berry
#

I was going to try my travel router whenever I got the chance to see if I can revive my vr gaming

#

hevc is heavier on cpu but lighter for network afaik

copper fable
tranquil pebble
#

my laptop actually handles VR ok

copper fable
#

As you know my CPU is very high end so

#

Don't think it would throttle

tranquil pebble
#

what CPU?

copper fable
tranquil pebble
#

and the range of the CPU does not influence if it throttles as much as the cooler used on it

pliant berry
#

I remember in the past I would play pcvr games in a different room so I was closer to the wifi ap but whenever I had to click a dialog box i had to walk all the way back lol

copper fable
#

I mean it can get hot sometimes around 65C

#

Even though that's not that hot

tranquil pebble
#

65C is not hot for a CPU

copper fable
#

Yeah I mean it's not 80C

tranquil pebble
#

hot would be 85+

copper fable
#

Which I used to have

#

DeepCool LD360

#

That's my cooler

#

I do see some people getting 50C - 60C with other water cooling solutions

copper fable
#

Not sure if it has any effect on it but it's on the floor

nocturne flicker
#

Mmmmmmm

copper fable
#

Is it true that in GTA Online with CPUs like the 5800X you get way lower fps then thouse with the 3D V-Cache since it's way more CPU intensive?

tranquil pebble
acoustic palm
#

3d vcache helps fps a lot yes

copper fable
#

I mean I've heard you can get around 70FPS with the 5800X and if you use the 5800X3D it can jump dramtically considering both are the same GPUs and same specs

#

Probably when everyone in the server gathers together in one spot

Let's say like 30 40 more fps

It's crazy how GPUs have gotten so efficent or is it just me I'm benchmarking GTA 5 enhanced and I'm using like 300W

While my RTX 5080 uses 1/3 of that

they are having a coffee lake moment with their new naming scheme, rehashing old chips even more than intel is rn

@dusk knot so looks like g sync was what was causing the flickers

#

Do u have it off too?

velvet summit

gsync is nvidia's protocol for VRR

velvet summit
#

freesync is amd's VRR

velvet summit
#

more than lcds

dusk knot
opaque sedge
velvet summit
#

no

opaque sedge
#

Well shit

velvet summit
#

VRR is basically the generic term? you need to either use gsync or freesync to use vrr basically

#

it's not a feature you need on a desktop pc

opaque sedge
dusk knot
#

Fr. VRR is more for consoles

velvet summit
#

laptops i guess
honestly not even that really needs it

opaque sedge
#

Doesnt vrr synchronize uneven frames tho?

velvet summit
#

mainly phones use it, switching between 60hz and 120 for mid end ones, and higher end phones going from 1hz to 120hz depending on the content

#

not really? honestly i'm not 100% sure but most people don't use vrr and are perfectly fine

acoustic palm
velvet summit
#

one of the main selling points of VRR was to stop screen tearing (without needing vsync) but i haven't had any screen tearing on any of my displays in the last 5 years at least without vrr nor vsync

opaque sedge
#

Should i still do a ddu in case?

velvet summit
#

no

#

it's unlikely to fix anything

#

unless you're having other issues

#

or actually, you upgraded your gpu, did you not ddu for that

#

if you didn't, then do that for that

#

but the flicker is almost certainly not going to go away

#

it's not a gpu issue, it's the monitor

dusk knot
#

i would do NO DDU if its fixed

opaque sedge
#

Can u try turning g sync on and see if it happens to u too pepehmmm

#

In the cyberpunk settings menu when u apply changes to be specific

dusk knot
