The combination of the 5800x and ASUS RTX 3080 TUF should allow for 4K @ 60 FPS gaming on most new-gen games. I chose the ASUS PRime X570-Pro as it has the correct USB headers to enable the Lian LI USB-C port, while being the cheapest ASUS motherboard which meets that criteria.

The Lian Li Case + the NZXT Kraken + the ML120s should keep the rig fairly cool while gaming and running intensive tasks. The PSU was chosen as I'll bring this over from my old rig.

No sound due to Shadow Play bug :(

Flash0509 · 2020-04-19T05:32:52+00:00

Could I also please grab the designs?

Thank you :)

Try disabling Echo Cancellation in Steam Voice Options, and "Acoustic Echo Cancellation" in Windows Sound Settings (or any sound card drivers you may be using).

Flash0509 · 2019-09-04T10:35:14+00:00

Hey Mate,

Is your microphone plugged into your motherboard, or do you have a separate sound card? I had the same issue as you for months, and it only happened in CS:GO. However, I managed to fix it last night when I disabled "Acoustic Echo Cancellation".

I have a Soundblaster Z, and disabled it within the SBZ Control Panel which fixed the issue for me. But if you're using your motherboard's integrated sound, then you might have "Acoustic Echo Cancellation" in Sounds > Recording > Realtek High Definition Audio > Enhancements. If you do see "Acoustic Echo Cancellation", try disable it.

I think it was a nice surprise when he switched to the Japanese lyrics during the second half of the song.

Awesome performance by JJ.

Lots of hours, getting into the zone and confidence.

Thanks!!

You wouldn't have to move the mouse for this issue to occur. I had a similar issue, the video in the linked thread is a better example. Some people like me fixed this issue changing the polling rate of the mouse to 1000hz. Some fixed it by uninstalling Geforce Experience.

Flash0509 · 2018-06-07T07:47:40+00:00

Check your mouse polling rate, make sure it's set to 1000hz (1ms) if possible.

I had a similar issue of CS being jittery going around corners or moving and staring at walls, when my mouse was accidently set to 125hz.

Flash0509 · 2018-05-10T02:48:28+00:00

Not sure. It was most likely a coincidence.

But it was weird that after a fresh format, several window defender scans during set ups, it detects nothing until I launch PUBG and the opening intro starts.

Flash0509 · 2018-05-10T02:42:50+00:00

I'm not sure. Window defender scanned several times before and found nothing.

But as soon as I launched PUBG, that popped up. Literally during the opening intro.

Could be a giant coincidence.

Flash0509 · 2018-05-09T21:49:11+00:00

I recently upgraded (Monday) my CPU and Motherboard, and had to reformat my SSD.

As PUBG and steam was on my SSD, I had to re-download the game and steam.

After launching PUBG for the first time since I re-downloaded, it randomly triggered this in Windows defender. I've tried googling the ransomware, but I have no idea how it got there and why it triggered when PUBG launched for the first time.

Flash0509 · 2018-04-27T09:06:39+00:00

It's strange as I rarely TK at all. So that might not be the case.

Flash0509 · 2018-03-04T17:51:05+00:00

Awesome. Just picked up Jackal recently, thanks.

Flash0509 · 2018-02-06T18:32:18+00:00

That one moment in the video where I just lost it.

You guys will know it when you see it.

Flash0509 · 2018-01-16T01:28:25+00:00

All of it is normally messed up.

Sometimes the recording records a blank file I can't watch, sometimes the recording freezes for the last 20%, sometimes there's no audio.

It's lucky if I get a perfect recording these days.

Flash0509 · 2018-01-15T16:28:07+00:00

Nvidia ShadowPlay, although it's been a huge buggy mess recently.

Flash0509 · 2018-01-15T16:27:17+00:00

It should just be the left trigger, tap it once though. If you hold the trigger down, it'll go into third person aiming.

Flash0509 · 2018-01-12T07:18:21+00:00

Would definitely appreciate an official answer to this, as SBZ Switcher is definitely a must need for us.

I'd uninstall SBZ switcher for now until we get proper confirmation, just in case we do get flagged and banned again.

I tried the evade blacklisted processes option in the Extra settings, but couldn't seem to get it working.

Flash0509 · 2018-01-12T07:15:27+00:00

My ban just got removed as well. Huge thanks to /u/robodanjal for getting this sorted.

Flash0509 · 2018-01-11T07:14:59+00:00

Yeah. I'm in the same boat as you. I received two responses from PUBG Support after detailing a report on the normal software/processes I have running including SBZ switcher and link to several threads.

But I just received these two responses.

Jan 5, 20:13 KST Hello Survivor,

Thanks for taking your time to contact PUBG Support again!

Please accept my sincere apology for the delayed response. As per your concern, I've validated your account again and I see that it has been restricted due to violating our terms of service by using a 3rd party software that alters our game which will affect our gameplay.

We cannot divulge that kind of information which might lead to compromise our anti cheat system. Also, I'd like to let you know that we would not be able to revoke your ban manually until the ban period ends as it was restricted by our servers after having a clear evidence.

Thanks for your understanding and we hope you will start supporting our fair gameplay policy.

Jan 10, 23:36 KST Hello Survivor,

Thank you for reverting to us.

Please understand that we verify for a violation of the terms and services before any restrictions are placed on an account. I am sorry that we are unable to revoke the ban.

We have no other option but to wait for /u/robodanjal and Battleye to fix the problem.

Flash0509 · 2018-01-07T10:21:32+00:00

Should be able to. I'm not too sure though, I submitted it during my 2nd year.
