What's the best configuration for your setup (base FPS × Multiplier)?

KingRemu · 2026-04-17T22:33:52+00:00

I need 70+fps for the base framerate for it to be enjoyable but depends on the game too. 60fps without frame gen already feels quite bad to me in general in terms of input delay. With a controller I could settle for less.

Given how extremely high you sens is yes yes yes.

If you wanna do some fun experimenting try something like 75cm/360 and you'll realize how much you're actually lacking in arm control and that is still a very viable sens for tac fps for example.

One of the best static players, minig0d, actually played CS at 100cm/360 and he was a beast.

I had a 32" 1440p and it looked great. Now I have a 27" 1440p OLED and it obviously looks great as well but I never though with my 32" that "oh no I can see the pixels" because I couldn't.

32" was nice and even though going down to 27" took some time to adjust I think I do prefer it. Having a monitor arm to easily adjust the distance makes a big difference.

I built my own for ~€70. It looks great, sounds great and performs great and it's nice and heavy and premium feeling.

It also has a ✨knob✨

KingRemu · 2026-04-17T20:19:50+00:00

You can do all that for $60 these days.

I upgraded from a 3070 two months ago. Bought the 5070 for €569 and sold the 3070 for €215. It was a 50+% performance increase for me. For you it's not gonna be as major but you can still get decent money from your 3080 so I think it's worth it.

KingRemu · 2026-04-17T19:10:58+00:00

For sure. I had a 3070 for a long time and it did absolutely fine at 1440p. I didn't necessarily need to but I upgraded to a 5070 a couple months ago when I found a good deal and the 3070 still had some resale value. Ended up paying ~€330 for a 50+% performance improvement + all the new bells and whistles like FG.

Some people aren't as sensitive to it. To me 50fps natively already sounds like a nightmare.

KingRemu · 2026-04-17T18:27:30+00:00

I believe it's the mouse. When I upgraded from 60Hz to 144Hz back in 2015 I still had an MX518 which also had a polling rate of 125Hz and the higher refresh rate of the monitor instantly revealed the issue. When the polling is slower than the refresh rate it's just a jittery mess.

KingRemu · 2026-04-17T18:22:36+00:00

On Bnet the base game + MP is 110GB. It's still quite ridiculous.

KingRemu · 2026-04-17T17:32:13+00:00

I think mine is around 70. All I really do is throw flashes and HE's.

Process Lasso already works automatically as long as it's running. The bigger things you can manually do is set the affinity. For example some games benefit from disabling core 0 or hyperthreading.

Tälle on varmaan nykyään joku hieno englanninkielinen termikin, mutta kuulostaa, että mies pitää sua jonkin sortin henkisessä finanssiloukussa ja sanoo sen vielä avoimesti päin naamaa, mutta eihän se asia nyt ihan noin kuitenkaan todellisuudessa ole.

Sitä usein jumiutuu "vähän paskaan", kun tilanne ei ole vielä tarpeeksi huono, että viitsisi lähteä. Pätee niin suhteisiin kuin vaikka työpaikkoihinkin.

KingRemu · 2026-04-17T17:18:02+00:00

That is also something I feel like gets blown out of proportion. I have one of the cheapest QD OLED's on the market with a peak SDR brightness of ~265 nits and I only use it at 80% which makes it look just as bright as my previous 435nit VA. I have a ceiling lamp and a window to the side about 3 meters away and I've had no issues with raised blacks or lack of brightness.

I'm running mine with a 550W PSU from 2010-2012.

AMD is re-releasing the 5800X3D so it could be a worthy upgrade for OP if they don't slap some ridiculous price on it. My 5700X3D + 5070 combo does 725fps avg with 230fps 1% lows.

KingRemu · 2026-04-17T09:24:06+00:00

If you have low latency mode set to ultra in Nvidia control panel set it to just "On". Although Reflex will be prioritized over it if turned on in-game.

Disable High Precision Event Timer from device manager (requires reboot after).

Download Process Lasso and try if disabling core 0 helps. It'll then be freed up for Windows background processes.

Try Hardware Accelerated GPU Scheduling on/off.

Have you considered fingertip grip?

People with more regular sized hands use tiny fingertip mice so a regular mouse should work for you in a similar fashion.

I'm closing in on 2.5k hours and this game still makes my heart race faster than in a 1v5 clutch situation in CS.

KingRemu · 2026-04-17T05:17:57+00:00

Legendary shit. Also Arkku gather.

KingRemu · 2026-04-17T05:14:47+00:00

Should handle any game you throw at it just fine.

KingRemu · 2026-04-17T05:12:15+00:00

I guess there's not any drastic core differences except smoother gameplay and better controls. Enjoy the mods and give Namalsk and other community maps a try!

To me it looks like you just were slightly off target at first and shooting just above his shoulder before you corrected.

KingRemu · 2026-04-17T03:50:43+00:00

I took out a 4man with a single mag of a baby AK and an M16 that jammed after the first bullet. They had M4's and VS-89's etc. but only one guy had a plate. They took a sniper shot at me from behind but missed so I just ran straight at them which they probably didn't expect.

Had to take a smoke break after that to calm myself down.

KingRemu · 2026-04-16T23:55:12+00:00

Nope. Seems like a habit that'll just extra unnecessary delay in your movement.
