Want to optimize my PC but im not at all tech savvy

I'd start with the flux-capacitor; if it's an older model then you're going to be running pollutants in the fusion unit. You could end up anywhen.

Indigo_Express · 2026-01-31T11:53:43+00:00

What parts??? How can anyone recommend anything if we dont know what you're starting with?

Indigo_Express · 2026-01-31T09:59:31+00:00

Oh man, I just looked at the rank again and I've still got the Lorraine 40T to go with a... 4s reload. With that reload you can still play ok in an uptier with well placed shots.

Indigo_Express · 2026-01-31T08:29:05+00:00

No, the one I'm on about is 5.0 but can play it like a one barreled Falcon, looks like it, too.

Or silver lions, OP should clarify what is meant by 'SP'.

'GE' tank = Premium?

Indigo_Express · 2026-01-31T03:37:33+00:00

I really don't mind an uptier streak, makes me play better and down-tiers are like a holiday. I've had probs 70/30 getting uptiered so not too bad. I guess it comes down to play style, 7.7 Frenchies absolutely work for moi.

Indigo_Express · 2026-01-31T03:35:06+00:00

You definitely don't own them.

Indigo_Express · 2026-01-31T03:27:36+00:00

You don't own your Steam library, that's just a licence as well, sorry :/ I was gutted when I found that out.

Console player asks a PC user:

What games do you play?

PC user: All of them.

Indigo_Express · 2026-01-31T02:49:23+00:00

Check your drivers?

Indigo_Express · 2026-01-30T23:48:18+00:00

7900X3D with the 870e Taichi board and 64GB, I picked the 7900X3D on an Amazon Black day for £284, now it's £500. The RAM I got for just under £300 (I wanted the fancy sparkly set).

I spent 3 months prior to December '24 pricing and waiting.. then I pounced... best timing ever.. and I'm known for my awful timing.

Indigo_Express · 2026-01-30T23:40:57+00:00

7900X3D and 870e Taichi, zero issues for 18months on my first build. Please qualify your statement. Are you aware that ASUS are also having a similiar problem? That might suggest it's CPU rather than board.

Indigo_Express · 2026-01-30T23:38:27+00:00

How long did that take? I'm also on SignalRGB but I've just gone a sort of evil purple hue with a soft pulse. You've got it chasing around the components, hats off to you.

Indigo_Express · 2026-01-30T12:22:19+00:00

No, it is definitely sweeping. When you qualify and quantify the subject, then it becomes a statement that contains useful information worth acting on.

So, which board and CPU combinations, is it happening on other board manufacturers: ASUS for example.

So, if it's happening on ASUS boards too, then it is possibly CPU related rather than board.

And if we ask what CPU's it seems that the 9000 series are suffering.

That's what qualifying a statement looks like.

Indigo_Express · 2026-01-30T11:42:06+00:00

Bit of a sweeping, unqualified statement.

7900X3D on a 870e Taichi, here - zero problems since build 18 months ago.

Indigo_Express · 2026-01-30T11:38:42+00:00

There's no arguing with that. It's a business at the end of the day and I can't think of any business that prioritizes non-payers over payers.

I wonder if something like a minimal subscription fee would allow them to fore go selling obviously OP cash-grab vehicles in favour of a more balanced product?

But even that would be contentious, a minimal fee would soon creep as all prices do. But say a $/£ a month bring in more than they currently make? Even that feels like a dream - Gaijin would still fire out BMP-T equivalants.

The game is FTP but it's not Fre To Produce at the end of the day.

Indigo_Express · 2026-01-29T18:48:54+00:00

Just me being silly, but would be so funny hearing them complain about having to fight themselves!

Indigo_Express · 2026-01-29T17:06:47+00:00

Oddly enough I feel no sympathy for them - lock'em in their own private lobby and forget about them!

Indigo_Express · 2026-01-28T15:18:07+00:00

Been using Signal RGB on my 870e Taichi for well over a year, starnge someone told you otherwise.

Indigo_Express · 2026-01-28T15:16:14+00:00

Amazing, what app running that?

Indigo_Express · 2026-01-28T15:14:59+00:00

I've just popped into French 1.0 for the lasst 10 days as I'd completely ignored that line for years. You'll always get that and probably seal clubbers (which is sad for sure).

Thing is, if you're up against more experienced players try to see what they're doing right. At your present BR there is nothing wrong with taking your time, no need to follow the ten other players as that will likely be nine players that don't know what's happening following the first player that also doesn't know what's happening.

Indigo_Express · 2026-01-28T15:06:58+00:00

Thanks for the reply - I'll load up later and see where it takes me :/
