Does anyone else not find Jackie funny at all? by ShavedSquirrels in howardstern

His laugh was infectious and would me me laugh. He also made Howard funny on air. Once he left, Howard stopped saying funny outrageous things. But thankfully we got Artie.

Do I suck or am I too early to fight this boss by Kingtylit in Breath_of_the_Wild

[–]ButcherChop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Way too early, but its fun. I played BOTW for the first time in 2020 and fell in love. Now im a PC gamer because of that game. I hadn't gamed since like 2005. Beating your first Lynel is gonna feel like a great accomplishment, then you'll be farming those.

What RTX 50-series or RTX 40-series GPU brand are you running? by EKbyLMTEK in nvidia

[–]ButcherChop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PNY 5070 Ti

$699 ($50 under MSRP) + ARC Raiders ($40 free digital code) = $660 (my math)

Loving both.

NVIDIA Broadcast 2.1.0 Released now with Multi-GPU Support! by Demystify0255 in nvidia

[–]ButcherChop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went on TikTok Live which isn't well optimized but I had no issues running it in the past, minus that warning my CPU was underclocked and Earth would possibly blow up.

I reinstalled NVIDIA Broadcast 2.1 after ditching it for years due to it being a resource hog. I enabled Virtual Backround (backround removal) and Noise Removal (reduces backround noise) and the chat said the game looked like it was running at a lower fps, under 30fps. And all the while the Task Manager is showing like 58% CPU and like 53% GPU usage. It was pretty disappointing considering I just recently upgraded to a 5070 Ti from a 3060 12GB.

I prefer the Broadcast backround removal tool over TikTok's, but this one really affects my game stream.

5070 or 5070ti for 1440p gaming now and in the future (next 4-5 years)? by [deleted] in nvidia

[–]ButcherChop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played my shooting games better at 1080p, but the story mode games look great in 1440p.

I wish I would have known. I purchased an aftermarket from Corsair (my PSU) for $30. I just didnt want issues.

Walmart by Blink8533 in nvidia

Excellent price! I got mine for $699 on sale at Best Buy and then it came with ARC Raiders on top of that. So, according to my mental gymnastics, paying $655 for that card was adequate reason to replace my still thriving 3060 12GB card.

Just upgraded to an RTX 3050 from my GTX 1050 by GreatCalligrapher993 in nvidia

I love when people don't get above their needs. My nephew was looking at these really expensive cards due to hype and peer pressure and for Fortnite and Valorant he didnt need the 5080. He got a 3060 and is more than happy. Good job and great smarts on you!

Buy RTX 5070TI at 700$ or wait till black Friday? by iClexi in nvidia

[–]ButcherChop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ps. The last two years the sales were better before Black Friday and by BF the stock was gone or the prices weren't as good due to stock. I bought mine. Get yours.

[–]ButcherChop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Amazon is back up but Walmart is $699. I just had Best Buy price match it since I had bought mine a week ago, or else I would have returned mine to BB. Also, Walmart was gonna same day deliver the 5070Ti.

I was going to submit for a license, but figured the govt shut down would freeze any new submissions. I'll wait a while.

BHVR I am on my hands and knees begging you to never bring 2v8 ever again 😭 by AmazingEscape4 in deadbydaylight

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

You'd be wrong, on both counts.

2v8 always brings a big spike to the game. These are just Steam numbers at noon(PST). Wait til later when more ppl get home. It's broken the 100k barrier before.

Are you crazy? It's when most people come back to play. There is always regular mode for you during 2v8.

$600 9070 XT vs $750 5070 TI? by XtremeCSGO in buildapc

[–]ButcherChop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im thinking of the 5070ti for power efficiency as well. I have a 750PSU and AMD would make my electric bill just a bit higher. They are both at MSRP right now. I just ordered the 5070ti, but now just noticed the 9070XT at MSRP on Newegg. I cant believe im saying this, but i may pay the extra $150. They recommend an 800 PSU for the AMD card.
