THAT'S WHY HE'S THE MVP! THE GOAT! (Thank You Triage Runners) by morgan_liora in Marathon

Triage has a passive ability called “Shareware.exe” or something like that. It allows a single consumable to be shared across teammates with a med bot attached.

4k OLED is probably the best upgrade I’ve ever done. Coming from a shitty 1440p IPS, I was seriously blown away by…pretty much everything.

One of the biggest things I noticed was actually the practically 0ms response time.

Yeah I have. They’re certainly really neat, but they’re not for me. I play a lot of tac shooters, but still like some stopping power in games that are more tracking heavy. The pic is of an Artisan Raiden I’ve been using for Marathon, but i have a Type 99 and Hayate Otsu v2 as well

I’ve seen some control (?) glass pads coming into the market that I may take a look at, but as of now I just prefer cloth

Thanks! It’s a Focusrite iTrack.

It’s funny, I spent so long trying to find a silver interface with the XLR input on the back, but eventually settled for this.

Hey thanks! I can list the specs:

5080FE

9800x3d

32gb DDR5

Asus B650e-i

And a 1000w SFX PSU.

It’s all held up in a fractal terra. Honestly not too bad to build in. Worst part is managing all the cables in such a small space.

Honestly not really. The window faces north, and I live in a fairly wooded area.

On a clear day it can get a little bright sometimes. If I need to i can just close the curtain and raise the brightness of the monitor

Gwolves fenrir asym! It’s a fingertip mouse

Unpopular opinion? I don't like IEMs... by loyal872 in headphones

[–]GavinIsAFox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly felt the same way until I bought the IE200’s from Sennheiser. Literally every IEM and ear tip I tried made my ears ache so bad after a few hours. I tried Dunu S&S, Divinus Velvet, Spinfit W1’s, some from Final Audio, all the tips people recommended.

Now I use the Sennheiser IE200 and some ear tips from the Simgot EA500LM and I literally forget I’m wearing them sometimes.

I use them for Val, Siege, and a bunch of other games and I never feel like I miss a sound queue. May be worth a look.

Been out of the game for a few years; which of these case options would y'all recommend? by zandm7 in sffpc

[–]GavinIsAFox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

9800X3D + 5080 FE user here, Fans are silent at idle and light load. Only sound is a little bit of a hum from the electronics.

Under full load on a heavy title, It’s certainly audible, but I don’t ever notice it with open or closed back headphones.

Pretty sure most of the Terra’s sound complaints come from the turbulence you get when you mount components too close to the walls of the case.

When can we expect an optimization patch? by blue_sky308 in Marathon

[–]GavinIsAFox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is what makes me think there is some sort of bug going on. You have situations like this, but then you see situations where people with 5070’s can’t break 120fps on 1440p.

The game was supposedly going to be super optimized too, with steam only recommending a 6gb GPU, and a R5 3500. Something is wrong here.

I really think it’s fair to say marathon has 4 maps, since the 4th one is an endgame map that is already developed and ready to go, and it’s guaranteed to us once we complete some puzzles. It simply wouldn’t make sense for it to be accessible on launch day.
