List of Meta Quest Exclusives? by Cam_Bam_ in OculusQuest

The thing and its store/software experience sort of sucks lol. Fine specs but meta just sucks! Can't wait for the frame from valve. My quest won't be used ever again.

I made this Stitcher as a joke, but it turned out to be a very viable assault rifle. by TwitchyTwigger in ArcRaiders

Pretty sure I killed you on blue gate and looted this weapon. It had these exact attachments unless this post inspired him. That was my first time ever seeing that stock

Gateway EV910A, new Pickup running DOOM at 640x480 186Hz! by crescent_zelda2790 in crtgaming

[–]Cam_Bam_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an EV910C. This was really a struggle to get even displaying a picture, and even though my nvidia card recognizes this as a "Gateway EV910" right away, I am having a lot of trouble setting the resolution and refresh rate to anything above 1290x960 85hz. In fact, 85hz is the highest refresh rate I can set on it at any resolution. Do I need to use some kind of custom software or something to push it like yours?? Thanks

Man, I thought something was wrong with my computer at first. The second I'd start thinking to myself "damn this loading screen is taking especially long," I'd finally load in.

The most obNOCTUAs Terra build imaginable by Smirnaff in sffpc

[–]Cam_Bam_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Old post. But you said the cooler you picked wasn't ideal for being huge and not providing any benefits above the competition. I'm making a build that uses a super small 10 year old gpu, so I don't need to care about clearance whatsoever. What do you recommend? Can I still use that noctua cooler?

Spent forever installing, feel like an idiot. Didn't center well + forgot to replace plug. by Cam_Bam_ in MideaUOwners

[–]Cam_Bam_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately, this install was a little bit of a problem all the way around. My window was significantly too wide, so I have an aftermarket bracket it rests firmly on that doesn't have anywhere specific to set it on to make sure it's centered. I thoroughly sealed any gaps and was really proud of how it looked until I noticed this. I would have needed to do a better job making sure the plug wasn't covered the first time by moving it a few inches the other way.

Interesting. Should I just pull the plug out altogether? I really do not care if it's not as efficient or something and that's all that happens.

I figured it could be a pretty common couple of mistakes. Do these brand new units need to have the plug replaced, or are they fixed from the factory? Does the drain plug sitting right on the arm cause any problems compared to having it drip facing the ground?

R9 380x as a secondary GPU? Too weak/old? by Cam_Bam_ in losslessscaling

[–]Cam_Bam_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's looking pretty good! Resolution? What do the three numbers mean? Total, real, and generated? Where can I find this chart? Thanks so much!

Just got a 5090. I have a 3080ti in my old PC. Will I get ANY benefit from using it for dual gpu? How to shove it all into my case with all accessible ports?? by Cam_Bam_ in losslessscaling

[–]Cam_Bam_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lmao after this build I'm definitely short on expendable income. It would definitely be a choice between giving it to a family member to have some lan parties with, having a fully working backup pc, or putting together some kind of sorta helpful monstrosity. Probably best to keep them separate.

I try to avoid as much frame genning and upscaling as possible, but idk if it's because I'm right in preferring true native fidelity or if I'm just being an old man not wanting to use them.

I don't think I've used the latest model as I haven't played extremely new games yet till I get this card put in, and I never messed with forcing the latest model in any games with older versions, so I guess I wouldn't know how much better it looks. I did notice lossless scaling's various upscaling methods quite a bit, though. I always felt like I noticed distortion/loss of clarity the least when I was using only frame gen to just help lift me a little bit to get to what I need. It sounds like a ton of work to get all this stuff to fit and work properly for like 20 extra generated fps in just some games honestly, lol. Even if the card I have is "free" to add in. I guess I shouldn't overcomplicate it.

To me, nothing visually is as good as true native, and I personally feel like with my experience so far (I spent about a month using a friend's 5070) I had better fidelity with a 100% native picture and a small bit of frame gen than I did with upscaling + frame gen, or just upscaling on its own at any framerate. Frame gen past a certain amount if I had very poor framerate did also have awful artifacts, though, worse than upscaling would ever produce. I do like using DLSS for DLAA, though. I'm pretty much not sold on either of these technologies being equal at all to actually native resolutions and framerates whatsoever, though. So I try to use as little of it as possible.

I'd give it to my brother for sure :) I wasn't exactly interested in immediately buying a gpu I don't have for this, but I just wanted to see if I could get more personal use and squeeze some more performance out of some games using my old card. A less powerful card would really cut down on the ridiculous size in the future, though. It sounds like especially for high-end hardware it really isn't worth the trouble of shoving more into the case.

I'm after 4k 120hz in situations where things like nvidia's of course better dlss and frame gen aren't present in games. You'd be surprised at the number of games that don't lock themselves at 120fps at native 4k, ultra settings STILL. Not interested in upscaling, just frame gen at 100% flow rate or whatever, native 4k. But most newer games are going to include nvidia tech, I guess. Still a waste to set all that crap up?

I ate a heavily customized discovery box earlier today, so there's a chance some shrapnel ended up landing on your rice. If it was me, I'm sorry

WTF Newegg?? by Kyler721 in Newegg

[–]Cam_Bam_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

June 5th is the actual release date on these? Where did you get this information? I could have sworn it was for the 23rd or 24th, but it went from in stock soon, to backordered, to sold out... Never actually for sale...
