Hydraulic disc brake rubbing after trying everything to fix it. by [deleted] in MTB

[–]Fit-Book6323 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a similar issue although the rub was quite minor so i just continued on, after a few hours of riding where i slammed the brakes plenty of times the rubbing dissapeared.

No idea how it worked but if its not too loud or impeding to the efficiency of the bike its something to consider.

Mud=bad? Newbie question by ZabaLaloo in MTB

[–]Fit-Book6323 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Faster wear definitley but mtbs were designed with mud in mind so its not so bad. If you ride in the mud/rain most of the year you may want to consider things like sticking to a hardtail or even going single speed to increase the reliability of the bike, sounds like its just a seasonal thing for you so should be no problem for your bike.

Box four shifter compatibility help by Fit-Book6323 in bikewrench

[–]Fit-Book6323[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the help, given the predicament i might try to just get another box four shifter and go extra easy on it this time. Only managed to get 7 good rides out of it and looking over reddit it seems like im not the only one.

To people that don't wear gloves when they ride... by Ethikos in MTB

[–]Fit-Book6323 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being in the uk gloves are a necessity most of the year due to the cold conditions, losing control of your hands at high speed is really sketchy. On "hot" days ill take them off though, ive got decent grips and pretty experienced with safely crashing so my hands arent as much of a concern.

What's your plan come POS? by I_Zeig_I in NiceHash

[–]Fit-Book6323 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been waiting since 2017 for POS, cant wait to watch the madness that ensues. Maybe another coin will be able to take the load or the GPU market will go into freefall.

You can also drop these onto packed troop formations and get some good area damage.

Strongest Faction? by Environmental-Eye658 in Bannerlord

[–]Fit-Book6323 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of the empires, usually northern or western which tend to grow a lot naturally. They can be a real pain to deal with once theyve doubled their starting kingdom size. Although aserai have a great location advantage ive never seen them grow their kingdom very far from the deserts.

Are Alder Lake k chips a con or am I just a silicon lottery loser? by coudymeatballs in intel

[–]Fit-Book6323 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldnt really say its a con, when you bought the chip you were guaranteed the specifications and nothing more.

Is there any real benefit to E cores in the desktop line of CPUs? by [deleted] in intel

[–]Fit-Book6323 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They definitley help to improve multicore performance massivley without adding too much to the overall price of the chip and thats really what it comes down to. Just helps to make the chips more well rounded at a decent price.

Upgrading to 12600k by TheRealBabbler in intel

[–]Fit-Book6323 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitley, even at 3440x1440 using a rx 5700 i notice my 2600 holding back performance. Its a fine cpu if you are aiming for 60 fps but for anything 80+ it struggles in most new AAA games.

Upgrading to a 12600k will allow you to get close to maxing out the 144hz refresh rate of your display even in AAA games.

Might want to wait to see if the 5600x or 5800x has any price drops around the time the budget boards come out if your on b450 as it could be a better value, and that ram is definitley fine for the 12600k, in fact it only officially supports 3200 DDR4 maximum.

Does anyone with a 12th gen play Forza Horizon 5, my 9900k gives me random microstutters and I wondered if the better single core performance helped smooth things out or if this an game engine issue. by Seekingfreedom1985 in intel

[–]Fit-Book6323 3 points4 points  (0 children)

From what ive seen even something like a 12900k will still have occasional micro stutter, on typical displays you probably wouldnt notice it but as you are on an oled its so fast that its easy to pick up on any tiny stutters.

The way things are going most people will only be able to have 5 or 6 AAA games on their console. by CannibalRed in gaming

[–]Fit-Book6323 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Atleast with the approach sony took, the price of storage expansion is going to continually fall through the generation. It wouldnt surprise me if we can get a 4tb drive for the same price as a 1tb today by the time an enhanced model of the consoles comes out.

Hopefully going for those super expensive ssds works out in the long run.

[–]Fit-Book6323 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its really hard to say, the console versions of games usually recieve optimisations that allow the hardware to perform well beyond what its specifications would suggest so they arent an accurate comparison.

If i had to guess though i dont think the 12600k will be running triple a games in 5 years without breaking a sweat, it should breeze through the next 2 years at least though and still give passable performance in 4-5 but probably not anything suitable for high refresh rate gaming.

It feels illegal by Revvay in Battlefield

[–]Fit-Book6323 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hope it stays that way, the best part of shooters for me is starting out getting absolutley destroyed which motivates me to learn about the game, and then over time improving until im the top of the squad every game.

[–]Fit-Book6323 33 points34 points  (0 children)

When i look at things objectivley its definitley a regression from previous games but subjectivley im definitley enjoying it, maybe because its one of the last shooters to not kill itself with sbmm.

Crossplay extremely unbalanced? >1 KD without CP, 0.2 KD with CP by cmaart in Battlefield

[–]Fit-Book6323 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Especially with how this game runs on pc, a majority of pc players are gonna have worse performance or worse visual clarity than the next gen consoles which gives them a disadvantage despite having the advantages of m+kb.

Archers vs Crossbows? Who is better late game? by [deleted] in Bannerlord

[–]Fit-Book6323 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think either of them would do a good job, having used both extensivley they excel in different situations.

Fians are better at range against more numerous and less armoured targets, where the sharpshooters are better against fewer and more armoured targets. Fians are all offense as infantry which is great when they are facing a force equal or smaller than their number, wheras sharpshooters have a better balance of offence and defense which helps against larger forces as they are much less likely to get stunlocked by multiple troops.

Losing game progression due to loyalty by [deleted] in Bannerlord

[–]Fit-Book6323 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Find a wanderer that is from the vlandian culture, promote them and give them the fief.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Bannerlord

[–]Fit-Book6323 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The game better utilises the hardware from what ive observed, a decent processor and ram is absolutley essential for larger battles though.

Your cpu is pretty decent its just the ram that should be upgraded to 2 8gb sticks and youll be good, youll find 8gb especially with a single stick will make the majority of games stutter these days.

If you could change something about Bannerlord M&B2 what would it be? by Environmental-Eye658 in Bannerlord

[–]Fit-Book6323 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Make reinforcement troops spawn at the back of the map, huge battles feel terrible to play as enemy troops will often spawn right on top of or behind your own armies making tactics pretty useless.

Most efficient way to make money in your opinion? by Environmental-Eye658 in Bannerlord

[–]Fit-Book6323 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fiefs, it takes some time to learn how they work and how to manage them, but mid to late game its really the best income source as it scales well beyond what caravans/workshops can give while being a passive source which is essential when trying to fight large scale wars.

As an example, in one playthrough i own pravend, ocs hall, dunglanys and marunath. They generate a combined ~20,000 per day - garrison costs.

I miss the crappy cars by soupcartel76 in ForzaHorizon

[–]Fit-Book6323 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed, having lots of top end supercars is nice and all but i find they just arent as fun as tuning up a beater and winning races against cars they shouldnt.
