time to put down the bong, dude. it doesnt matter if the card is red or green...measurable performance uplift over time at driver level is extremely common with new architectures, either in average fps or frame pacing. you botching the measurement of a 5% reduction in peak frametime value (or...
wow, congrats lightning. which card did you manage to nab?
i will say, to anyone interested in using tech drops discord - their notifications are good, but dont talk tech in the general chat. i got kicked and banned by the moron admin himself because i made the unfounded and incendiary claim...
i know this is a super late reply but i just saw this post. thanks for the correction - i didnt know that the supplied adapter cable was made from thicker gauge wire like the seasonic/corsair adapters. strike what i said about the FE cards in my prior post, then :)
3090 hits the 2x8pin wattage wall if raising power limit ~2%. if an aftermarket 3x8pin card underperforms in comparison by any amount in a gaming setting on stock volts, then its throttling clocks due to heat and you raise HSF rpm/waterblock it. in stark contrast, hitting a power delivery limit...
ill do you one better. i had my password saved (correctly), and evga wouldnt accept it because some time between last month and right now, they added special character/capitalization requirements that actually invalidated my password. i had to change it via the automated form, and i lost the...
XC3 3080 only has two 8pin power connectors (like FE), while the FTW3 3080 has three. (2x150)+75 = 375w hard power limit, which unfortunately results in major throttling if OCing due to the ridiculously inefficient and power-hungry architecture
the chips are the same, but there is a concrete...
i had a 6800xt in my cart at 12:51 but couldnt get past the final confirmation. sigh. im stuck on this 970 forever, evidently
since you dont want it, you should sell it to me instead...thanks in advance :P
shes upset because she was screwed by EAs bumbling of her cancelled star wars game, & who wouldnt be? however, shes completely misattributing the nature of the issue & applying a somewhat logical extrapolation of a solution ~to her mistake~
the issue is western AAA publishers are wildly corrupt...
did a zen build in march when first gen launched. corsair dominator kit was $135, now the same kit is $145 (lol). just built a zen+ rig with ballistix elite for $130, was nearly $150 in december i believe? prices are definitely dropping due to chinas price fixing investigations, but retailers...
recently bought a 2600, got the division 2 as a promotion - so im selling it. if you have the appropriate hardware, i will send you the AMD promo code. if you dont have the hardware to activate it, just create an AMD rewards account on their site & i will activate it for you.
gmg has it on sale...
my grandfather was on a destroyer in the pacific theater. my great uncle was boots on the fucking ground in europe. the actual events of WWII were fantastic enough to be fiction.
dont talk to me again until you have at least 500 posts where you arent making a tremendous ass out of yourself. HOOAH
i would gladly play a battlefield game with zero respawns & one medkit limit if it meant that they showed proper respect to the source material instead of this absurd """"""""reimagining"""""""" of history.
i really would have preferred to see a coherent, historically accurate, respectful depiction of WWII battle. instead: michael bay action that makes no sense upon scrutiny & throws history out the window. im kind of pissed off, honestly.
if any of you havent played this game for some ungodly reason...dont admit it, but just get this deal & experience one of the greatest games of all time.
there is indeed a patch for that
i very much hope this game is worth buying, but considering wat happened to the actual BF5, i cant help but be mildly concerned. i would absolutely love a modern & worthwhile WWII campaign (fuck cawadoody), & the potential MP setpieces in frostbite have me...well, anticipatory.
im no...
its super cool that people are defending treyarchs move to discard the extensive work they had already undergone constructing their SP campaign because it was taking too long & activision would have liquidated their entire fucking studio for delaying the annual cawadoody title cash cow (timed...
i would strongly recommend opening the sub & adding active cooling to the amp itself. the cheaper parts now in use (compared to ~10yrs ago) can overheat (acutely or over time) & melt the board or fry its components. this is literally almost the only cause of failure for these units besides the...
ive been getting the impression over the years (ive had a subscription forever) that there are a number of people @ wired who got their positions there without actually caring very much about hardware, gadgets, coding, applied science, & where technology is taking society (in a granular or broad...
so juan, serious question for ya: after a years time & over seventeen hundred flailing posts, have you begun to realize that nobody here is buying all the substanceless circumlocution? [H] is a forum of hardcore hardware enthusiasts, plenty of whom are intimately familiar with technical...
that large publishers are soul-sucking corporate vampires who literally prey on their customers apathy at the expense of any creative investment or interest in their own products, & the only way to stop the current trend is to speak out proactively against it.
so the same alphabet agency whose agents posed for pictures, smiling, in the rubble of waco hours after burning women & children alive, wants an encryption key if they ask politely? sounds perfectly reasonable.
but seriously, lets just acquiesce about this whole privacy vs govt strongarm issue...
oh, dont get me wrong - i find it quite frustrating & frankly obnoxious that everyone at the valve office is essentially passing the buck instead of taking initiative to spearhead an honest & earnest effort towards making HL3 a reality. my explanation for their complacency wasnt meant to excuse...
plaid, its almost as if you dont understand that all this bloated bullshit should be opt-in, not opt-out...but regardless, youre quite right about wats """""""free"""""""
i think theres a misconstruance here - the expectation is by the devs at valve, & it assuredly exists. they are the ones who feel immense pressure to deliver something monolithic, mind-blowing, & worthy to the legacy that HL & HL2 each created as technological & storytelling milestones in the...
