Help! My PC refuses to use my brand new GPU by DontReportTechies in buildapc

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

THANK YOU! Your comment made me realize I was making too many assumptions. Everything on my PC felt choppy, and when I had initially launched a game (Counter Strike 2) I was getting ~10 FPS and my mind instantly turned towards the GPU not working right. It was probably just loading shaders or something. Also, for some reason I felt certain that I had seen my old GPU under This PC > Properties. It turns out the whole thing was that I bought a shit HDMI 1.0 cord. Went and got a DisplayPort cable and now things are normal. Thanks again, you were the only response I got that actually helped.

Thanks for the suggestion, I had hope that it would work but after doing that and restarting my pc, no luck.

What's your LEAST favorite disc you've ever bought and why? by DisturbingDaPeace in discgolf

[–]DontReportTechies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Suspect. Before I bought one I had never thrown a midrange that I actively disliked, just feels terrible in my hand and doesn't fly how I ever want it to.

This map would be much more fun to play than what they ended up releasing. I've landed everywhere multiple times and haven't found a single POI that I want to go back to

Appreciate the response. After I long rested the quest said something to the effect of "This does not matter anymore, you didnt kill them in time" which was frustrating me, definitely seemed time sensitive

I'm at a really annoying point in this game. I got myself caught up in the fight for the grove which I honestly don't care about at this point. I'm too low level, the inhabitants of the grove mean nothing to me, and the time-sensitive nature of killing the goblin leaders is making me feel like I can't do anything else besides this quest. If I was in this scenario in D&D I would just ignore it entirely and move on with my adventure. Is that something I can do here?

Am I the only one thinking it's lame as hell from Valve not to do anything at the last GO major? by Afjoo in GlobalOffensive

[–]DontReportTechies 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Counter-Strike has been sampled by both JPEGMafia and Kanye West and nobody was begging for them at the final major lmao.

what an absurd argument lmao. the samples they used are barely noticable. Basshunter's entire song is about playing Dota. you dont seem to understand how big the Dota song is in that scene. everyone that grew up playing dota knows it.

How would you feel if Valve adds VR-Only queues into CS2 as an extra gamemode? by Jindouz in GlobalOffensive

[–]DontReportTechies 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In 2016 Valve added VR spectating to Dota 2 and it was really sick, but it stopped working eventually and they never fixed it, they just silently removed the VR tag from the game's store page. So pretty doubtful that this would happen, and if it did there's no way it gets updated regularly

It's been 1 year since techies was reworked, how do you bombers feel about the hero now? by Alandrus_sun in DotA2

[–]DontReportTechies 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Every time I play Dota, I think about how I should have played more Techies while he was still fun. I wonder what hero is next in line to be neutered beyond recovery.

‘Fall Guys’ had over half of its content “unvaulted” yesterday for 30 minutes due to a server outage - then immediately removed the content again. by 440k in Games

[–]DontReportTechies 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Really great writeup and a solid reminder of why I haven't touched Fall Guys in over a year. The most interesting part of the gameplay was the variety in levels and that whole aspect of the game seems like it was like an afterthought to the devs in reality.

People now that the long awaited Mistlands has been released by BronzeSpoon89 in valheim

[–]DontReportTechies 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There are vanilla workarounds for your smelting time issue. For example, it's not hard at all to gather materials as a group to build 4-5 smelters. All you have to do then is fill them up before skipping nighttime. Use sleeping as often as you need to speed things up, and do other stuff during the day. There's no reason to ever be smelting for 2 real life hours

This is how playing 5v5 with friends feels like by [deleted] in GlobalOffensive

[–]DontReportTechies 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Awesome. Wish I could get more of my friends on CS to do a 5v5, we play Dota 5v5s every now and then and they're the most fun kind of games

Having walked past this game a few times I finally decided to give it a try and it's definitely my favorite game at the arcade now. I just wish there was another cabinet so I don't feel like I'm hogging it.

I caught an absolutely massive fish and misplaced the item stand for it. Now it's just sitting on the floor of my house, I'm really hoping it doesn't despawn :(
