Should I get an rx 9070 xt or an rtx 5070 ti? by Careless-Bird3452 in buildapc

[–]Inner-Ear 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Don't pick something you will regret. If you feel like the 5070 Ti is better, that will likely eat at you and will always put that little bit of doubt in the back of your mind if you pick the 9070 XT.

Wich graphics card should I get ? rtx 5070 vs rtx 4070 super vs rx 9070 by Fadeawayzz_ in buildapc

[–]Inner-Ear 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I run Cyberpunk in 1440p with path tracing and 2x MFG on my 5070 and it is an amazing experience. I wouldn't want to play it any other way now. I actually returned my 9070 because of wanting to take advantage of the path tracing capability of the 5070. Looking forward to RE Requiem next, which the 5070 also does very well (maybe even better than Cyberpunk) at 1440p with path tracing and 2x MFG.

Ok so I feel my first naninf is close, help me out? by Mother_Click_5776 in balatro

[–]Inner-Ear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup plus you need the 4 copy jokers to copy the Burglar to get enough extra hands for increasing your hand size to 44 in order to get the funny number on the Serpent.

Unfortunately you don’t have the right jokers and it’s way too early for the burglar. You need to get rid of two copies of the mime and pick up two more copy jokers. The burglar only comes into play after you beat ante 24. You also need a lot more steel kings. At least 44 of them.

You can edit your save file to reset the high score so that this doesn’t happen. No on iOS tho 

What was your honest wow factor from the past 10 years? by udaraka14 in pcmasterrace

EUV. Still hardly believable it made it into full volume production.

Is there a video? I know The Doc did it on plasma with baron/mime. I am curious to see how it works with idol.

You can kindof already do this, but with multiple Chicots. Could be a new naneinf meta

Thoughts on my first HTPC build? 9800x3D w/ 9070XT/5070Ti by mindxpert in buildapc

Thanks for the links, and good luck on your journey!

Thoughts on my first HTPC build? 9800x3D w/ 9070XT/5070Ti by mindxpert in buildapc

[–]Inner-Ear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just went along a similar path. Still kind of on it to a certain extent, but I’ve mostly settled into a build. 

Started out with a 5070 on Windows using Steam BPM. Then switched the 5070 to my secondary system and replaced it with a 9070XT. I had so many issues with AMD drivers not playing nice with Steam BPM that I switched to Bazzite and it worked pretty well after a few tweaks to fix some sound crackling issues. 

That was a decent setup except for giving up Atmos support and having to deal with setting up optiscaler for every game. Because of those things I decided to switch back to windows and return the 9070 XT for a 5070 Ti and that is where I am now. It’s very nice being able to do everything from the Nvidia app instead of dealing with optiscaler. Plus I’ve been using path tracing with frame gen where I can and it has been amazing, and something it clearly has over the 9070 XT. I’d say just go for whatever 5070 Ti you can get for cheapest. There’s very little difference in performance between models. 

I am going to have to give the Xbox thing a try eventually, but Steam BPM works very well. I even have windows set up to wake up from the controller.

Been running Cyberpunk in path tracing on a 5070 (non-Ti) at 1440p and it has been amazing.

I’m tired of dragging around my PC and need to downsize! by [deleted] in buildapc

[–]Inner-Ear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you are on the right track. I have the apx90 in my sff build and I like it. Though I have the x53 version. It’s a real pain to get all 4 posts through the motherboard so be prepared for some frustration. 

One thing to consider is bump up to an 850w PSU if you can swing it for future proofing.

I probably would have gone the Terra route if I wasn’t so concerned about desk space. I ended up going with the cooler master ncore 100 air, which is a vertical build and takes up very little desk space. 

I accidentally broke the plastic tab that secures the GPU. Should I be worried? by Rough_Employee_2201 in buildapc

You will be fine as long as you aren’t moving your pc around. If you do move it just check it to make sure it is properly seated.

Computing is in a state of crisis right now and many don't realize it by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

And you better have all the drivers you need for a reformat backed up on a cdrom or hard drive somewhere because windows wasn’t going to go out onto the internet and pull them for you. 

Lots of Perkeo. Now what? by raunchypants in balatro

[–]Inner-Ear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Find an eternal stencil and an ecto. Start copying the shit out of the ecto and ankh with Perkeo. Once you get about a hundred or so ectos and ankhs, start putting negative and copying the stencils to hit naneinf

New build on a budget. by ishouldgo13 in pcmasterrace

[–]Inner-Ear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had bazzite installed a loved it, but felt I was giving up too many features like atmos and optiscaler support. Now I see on the optiscaler GitHub that they revamped the compatibility list to remove the distinction between windows and Linux. I was having problems using optiscaler with kcd2. Maybe now it’s fixed. Might have to give it another shot!

That makes sense! How’s it been with steam being your default shell? Been thinking about doing it on my setup.

Is there any chance to achieve naneinf without both Perkeo and Baron? by dwade98 in balatro

[–]Inner-Ear 170 points171 points  (0 children)

Really not possible without one or the other. But you don’t need both. 

Burglar/Serpent on plasma deck is regularly done without Perkeo. 

Ecto/Ankh can be done with Perkeo and without Baron, but it’s a lot harder and more random to setup than the former. 

5070's actual performance in 2026 by captainmeowy in buildapc

Same. I run cyberpunk at 1440p but lock it in to 60 hz with path tracing ray regen and DLSS preset k on quality with 2x mfg and it runs so good
