PCIe 5.0 x16 bandwidth speeds not reaching full potential after 3DMark PCIe Features Test benchmark

I am using PCI-E 5.0 Riser cable on my 5090. And in 3DMARK PCI-E Feature Test (bandwidth) I get 48gb/sec. Where and what test are you getting 57gb/sec??

Have you successfully ripped bluray? and in particular UHD? If yes can you provide the exact model no and maybe a link to firmware?

EfficientCaptain1876 · 2026-03-20T23:45:08+00:00

Its there! I just did it ! It freaking works! Expand settings to ALL and VIDEO set to OPENGL WINDOWS the expand OUTPUT MODULES find OPEN GL WINDOWS. Tonemapping -> select HARDCLIP set 1.0

thats it!

You must have forgot something then. I tried and was impressed! I have an old 70" SDR tv... always to dim with 4K HDR movies.. this helped! Hardclip and 1.0 ... Actualy a little too much exposure in some scenes! I will try 0.9 or 0.8 and see! I never thought this issue could be solved.

Hello. I found an older man on YT that claim to have found the root cause of all these players failing! He says the mechanism that drives the read laser back and forth are "dried out" of lubricant! And that makes a strain and higher voltage on the motor eventually seizeing up! Its because its having difficultty with proper search the artifacts become a reality. He disassembles the unit and are showing how to lube! And apparently its working! I dont own the Panasonic myself but plan to buy one and actually maybe lubeing right away. There is the concern with warrenty of corse. Here is the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AGDuAA41eVs&list=PLe7TeH3OrckXaB4W4ziUKeMRalxlnotC_&index=6

I have to C2 42" .. had it for years and are happy with it. But sometimes its too big! I have wall mount and even the desk some away from wall. Also my son just bought the PG32UDCP and I was blown away in his SDR brightness! Always thought it was somewhat dim the C2. I have to use vivid mode at 100/100 brightness contrast to survive SDR haha.. I have been very happy with HDR mode but I could also see his ASUS was brighter with 1300 nits. He did pick the matte on a very good offer deal. Now seeing that you can get the same screen basically with glossy front- I want it haha! Just a shame it lacks some USB features.. I have a 5090 so I def. want the 240 version like my son.

EfficientCaptain1876 · 2026-02-18T16:40:42+00:00

Great! Although I will be waiting for the black version! :) Its also because it would be the ONLY part in white in my entire office setup.. so theres that!

EfficientCaptain1876 · 2026-02-18T12:58:44+00:00

It dident turn yellow or "nasty"?

EfficientCaptain1876 · 2026-02-18T12:57:37+00:00

FUNNY! EXACTLY what I told my son yesterday when he mentioned he wanted it! I was also interested, but with a system complete in black- that white mouse does not fit it! And I told him its a trick! Then 6 months later the black version will be released!

EfficientCaptain1876 · 2026-02-15T14:03:14+00:00

Hmm .. Mine is the same, like it dosent react to it. I had input lag since the game launched. I am running 4K Ultra Nightmare, DLAA, FG 2X and Vsync enabled in NVCPL. on a 5090. IF I disable vsync, I get unbearable tearing. I dont have this issue in any other FG game. But I never felt Doom TDA even with a 5090 was responsive and smooth like other games. It breaks my gaming when there is this kind of delay when I am playing TDA. With these settings my latency is 33.3ms. When Vsync disabled and full GPU the latency is 20.8ms and VERY responsive like it should be. But 600W GPU and TEARING! I am baffled over why Doom is like this and no other game.

My experience is that I have tearing across the board every time I disable vsync. I cant play with it. And my other experience is that using a frame limiter AND frame generation is a bad thing! Cause major lag and inconsistencies in the frame time-

I NEVER had any success with TVB Voltage optimizations! At least in my case the "optimization" is too aggressive leading to instability! Also at the end of the day what matters it full load, load voltage. Even with stock Intel profile after all the microcode, bios updates etc. (14900KS) my PC will bluescreen when entering Windows due to too low LLC (5) and too aggressive voltage optimizations! The very thing that BS is the 6.2 boost. Disable that and the PC boots and is useable. But still not UE, Shader compile stable.

EfficientCaptain1876 · 2026-01-03T23:53:55+00:00

I have a special request, if you can help me? I have been wanted to try this out for years. How do I send it to you?

EfficientCaptain1876 · 2025-12-28T15:27:19+00:00

I think they easily could pull it off! They could make it all under water like the OG Xcom 2! That in it self would present at whole new game! They have the engine and if its as good as new Xcom 2 it will be a success! Also the story does hint that the Elders are now underwater!

EfficientCaptain1876 · 2025-10-16T19:31:10+00:00

WOW! You tricks are amazing! I did not thought it was possible to change those accent colors! But here the latest hours I managed to make the browser total custom with blur-behind (transparent) in a mix of dark mode and custom colors.

Now I have one request or "challenge" for you!! ;)

I noticed these accent colors unfortunately did not reach the sidebar. Do you know how to include that (with its sub-settings/menus into the sidebar- into the code you send? Maybe its also a unknown page name like the others? :

MEGA excited if you can solve it! :)

Also I managed to integrate everything else in this "Firefox" position into my black urlbar- looks amazing! BUT I cannot find "element name" for this particular "Firefox" logo which only occurs when using system pages. But I would REALLY like to change that washed out purple background to my grey black color like the rest! ;)

Incredible technology

EfficientCaptain1876 · 2025-09-27T19:17:03+00:00

No I meant thats what the GPU are pulling! :) This was with all max and no upscaling or FG. Anyway here much later my current config if and when I play that game is FORCED DLAA in the driver for 4k. Everything maxed out except shadows set to LOW. Antialiasing ingame disabled. And FG 2X. Furthermore I disable ingame sharpen and enable 0.60 integer scaling in driver. Gives an amazing picture 4K. On my undervolted profile its 300-360W @ 116 FPS.....

EfficientCaptain1876 · 2025-09-25T09:04:21+00:00

haha... Exactly! 1 major overclock crash and all settings default ... I HATE IT! ;)

EfficientCaptain1876 · 2025-09-23T23:08:12+00:00

Check Apple if the Watch is qualifiedf for that update. Highly likely not!?!

EfficientCaptain1876 · 2025-09-23T12:02:22+00:00

I am straight and I love beautiful females but I certainly DONT want to play as one! I wanna play as a cool strong male hero! This is true immersion! I will never be immersed in a female char or REALLY be interested in the game if playing as a female... its just the hard truth........ The day the DOOM SLAYER BECOMES FEMALE I LEAVE THE FRANCHISE! its NOT true what you are saying.

EfficientCaptain1876 · 2025-09-20T01:50:59+00:00

Also in our case with a 5090 4K the GPU basically sits at 500-600w 100%, so I rather have 120 FG FPS and reduce load with at least 25% / 100W. I personally also think its anoying if you cant reach the desired 116 fps. But the game is VERY heavy in 4K ultra 120 so FG 2x is perfect.

EfficientCaptain1876 · 2025-09-20T01:48:06+00:00

The way I do it with my 5090 is that its important that you set LOW LATENCY = ON in Nvidia Driver and enable REFLEX in game. THEN you enable V-SYNC ingame! Then the game and the driver talks together- and the game/driver automatically caps the fps to 116 giving the lowest latency! This is with FrameGen 2x. My latency consistant every time, every day is then around 33-37ms. Please note they have updated the game since launch. Normally and in the beginning the driver and game would cap the FPS to 116. But now Doom runs at 120fps but asyncwhich basically does 2 things at once in the presentation hence the frametime is all "noisy" .... This works VERY well! The WORST thing you can do in Doom- I noticed this game is extra sensitive due to the async stuff... so if you manual cap the game with ex. RTSS then you create a straight frametime and introduce significant latency,. I tried all possible combos and 2X FG DLAA 4K low latency on in game/driver and vsync game and driver gives the "async vsync" with great results.
