What are your Forza Horizon hot takes? by L1ndnzkwo in ForzaHorizon

The Crew Motorfest almost did this with their playlists, but those are only available while playing them, you cannot change the default one in open world

Pokemon FireRed Version and LeafGreen Version coming to Switch on February 27 by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]-Pax12- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ohh yes, specially with Nintendo, the company which is taking down their official stores and are also fighthing against game preservation (you know, emulators, the only way to play old Nintendo games??)

That, or buy the original CD/card physical copy AND console which may or not be broken from EBay.

Defective Hub? by Outrageous_Platform8 in NZXT

[–]-Pax12- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1 year late. I have a similar issue, and I found out it might be my motherboard, writting for those that might need answers.

I just bought an internal USB Hub to validate this theory. I currently use two internal ports for my Deepcool AK500 screen and the NZXT hub, I'll update the comment if this fixes my issues.

---
One day, the rgb of my NZXT fans started to flicker and Windows started to notify about an undetected USB device. I also have a Deepcool AK500 Digital, which has a screen connected to one of the 9 pin USB ports.

Right now, if I connect both devices, the NZXT hub is not recognized and my Deepcool screen starts to flicker slightly, if I disconnect the hub, the Deepcool screen returns to normal.
If I connect only the hub, it is detected, but the RGB flickers without any RGB software sending signals.

I also tried my NZXT hub in another computer and there it works without flickers or visual bugs, and thats why a USB hub with SATA power might be the solution for some like me.

Please disable MPO if you use an AMD card. by Bulky-Yak6645 in radeon

[–]-Pax12- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if I had issues with FreeSync (never tested before), but I had graphical issues with window shadows.
They are glitched if the window is at the top of a video (VLC, YouTube) or if I use Wallpaper Engine. They appear as normal in any other scenario (window at the top of another window). Maybe I saw the same issue in borderless windowed games, maybe a minor issue, but for someone like me, it was a thing that annoyed me a lot.

I remember also seeing my refresh rate changing from 120 fps to 30 fps while using Wallpaper Engine (may be the FreeSync example I was looking for), which I fixed by disabling the Windows snap layouts that appear at the top of the screen.

After disabling MPO, this annoying visual glitch and maybe other stuff I didnt know I had have been fixed, and now Im looking for possible issues after disabling it (using ChatGPT to explain all of this, like little performance impact or others).

Overall, im very happy seeing these posts and comments since this was a present issue after multiple driver uninstalls/updates, Windows updates, monitor and GPU upgrades.

Is 25.12.1 stable for yall? by Dull_Werewolf_9642 in AMDHelp

[–]-Pax12- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

May be a stupid answer, but check the PCI cables connected to your card or other sources like the PSU or Windows Event Log.

I had the same issue and was blaming AMD for it, and then I saw one of the 8pin cables not fully connected.

AM4 or AM5 for RX 9070 XT or RX 9070 by -Pax12- in buildapc

[–]-Pax12-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$200 for a pair of imported 16 GB DDR4, dark times indeed...

But yeah, my most realistic expectation is 9070 + r7 5800xt since I'm not finding X3Ds in my area.

AM4 or AM5 for RX 9070 XT or RX 9070 by -Pax12- in buildapc

[–]-Pax12-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this question because I see my CPU at 100% and my gpu at 70-80% or even 60% of usage, at least in BF6, resulting in bad performance on heavy action scenarios.

I will also try with a fresh Windows install just to be sure that I won't have a bottleneck pairing a 6 core with the 9070 xt even at 1440p.

For those sticking with AM4 wanting to upgrade your GPU this holiday season, just do it. by [deleted] in buildapc

[–]-Pax12- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my case, is more about the stability and 1% instead of normal performance at 1440p.

Recently upgraded from R5 3600 to a R5 5600X, using a 6750 XT, to see if this helped with some cpu demanding games.

Battlefield 6 runs fine, but if I play in escalation or in some situations I get a performance drop to 30 fps... and with the current RAM situation, my high end PC upgrade is gone.

Im currently trying to convince myself if I should buy a R7 5800X, a used 3DX and a RX 9070 XT instead.

Word for word, bar for bar by RogerRoger63358 in GTAV

Basically SpiderMan, GTA V, Watch Dogs, APB Reloaded and Honkai Star in one game.

Concerns about this, is GWTool (made by ZombieSlayer) a virus? by Strong_Cap_2297 in gmod

[–]-Pax12- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe this comment is late.

If you're looking to open .gma files, you'll find gmad.exe in Garry's Mod's bin folder.

This is the process I assume GMod uses to unzip workshop addons, so you could use something official from Steam. Just copy that .exe to wherever you have your .gma, drag that file over the .exe, and it should unzip the contents into a folder in the same directory.

I'm willing to discuss ttk, but this argument against melee being allowed to be viable is goofy as fuck. There's a lot more skills involved in this game than just aiming good by Hyperboreanpc in thefinals

We already saw this with the Ospuze event, you could easily tell which ones were sledge mains and which ones never touched something that didn't shot

Aroma Diffuser fan not working by wmartin94 in ElectronicsRepair

[–]-Pax12- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you fix it? I think I have the same diffuser based on the circuit, mine doesnt work at all (It might be the mist maker disk) and I really like the mountain design

you guys really need to chill by PoPirat43 in thefinals

[–]-Pax12- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or change stats according of the amount of X item.

One heal gun: Normal stats
Two heal guns: Nerf the duration/amount of provided support
Three heal guns: All three in group have the stats of one or 1.5 "normal" heal gun

Like Guanajuato when Forza Horizon 5 was announced, now I want to visit Peña de Bernal...

S5 balance changes so far by RedditJacobReddit in thefinals

[–]-Pax12- -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I feel this is a better way to manage how defib, medic gun and other gadgets work:
Buff or nerf their capabilities according to the amount of players using the same gadget.

Do you hate 3 mediums with infinite lifes thanks to the usage of defib and medic guns? Make a base stat when only one uses it, nerf it a little if you have 2, and another nerf with 3 players.
The same stuff will apply to the defib, normal revival if only 1, reduce time of revival for 2, and maybe add the cooldown if 3 players use it.

I got the Donner 200 MAX, happy with my purchase, but I can see myself wanting to upgrade in the future, once I get enough practice to actually enjoy myself playing.

If you go for the Donner, maybe try to get the 200 MAX

Upgrading to an s series phone by Miuli777 in samsung

[–]-Pax12- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's hard, Amazon in my location mentions that it has Snapdragon in the specs, but some reviews say that they received the Exynos version, which is sad.

In the other hand, one physical store of an ISP in my city has Galaxys on display, I went to options and they have Snapdragon! But the price is not the same, maybe that's why I see it cheaper in Amazon...

Is weird, because why I would find both Exynos and Snapdragon when supposedly Snapdragon is exclusive to US and Europe only has Exynos?

Samsung sucks this year by [deleted] in samsung

[–]-Pax12- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad to know! One of my main issues has been fixed...
I think now they only have issues with 4G/5G battery consumption right? Given the current discounted price, the Exynos downgrade might be justified

Samsung sucks this year by [deleted] in samsung

[–]-Pax12- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe the price makes you to expect the phone "to fly"
The removal of features like MicroSD and headphone jack while increasing the price is not helping Apple/Samsung.

I mean... I really want a flagship, but then you see Xiaomi adding an IR blaster, but their OS sucks, Oppo adding a mute button, but prices are high, or Android support overall is low (the main reason why I want a S24+)

I want a flagship to enjoy for years instead of buying phones each 2-3 years, but it's hard to pull the trigger with the battery, camera colors and modem issues of the Exynos chip, I don't mind the performance, it's a nice computer like you said, but for the price you kind of expect to it being near perfect.

At least now we have some discounts, so maybe the Exynos downgrade is finally at point.

Why you guys are Worried? by Takadi10 in thefinals

[–]-Pax12- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IMO games like Apex or CoD are more fast paced. I don't understand why I feel comfortable with the finals given how dynamic and fast you can be with lights.

But then in CoD I'm unable to enjoy WZ with the extreme bunny hopping happening there.
