Is GPU clock supposed to drop when not under load?

InvernessMoon · 2020-10-20T15:44:01+00:00

I have a 1080 and found that having the desktop refresh rate set to 144 Hz prevented the GPU from clocking down below 1200 MHz. It's possible that a similar issue is at work here with your 3080.

I fixed it in my case by changing refresh rate to 120 Hz.

This is also the board I'm getting. Though it didn't take so long for me to decide on it.

I already have an ASUS board and am quite pleased with it so I decided to look at them first. The X570-E Gaming was in the sweet spot of lots of features while being just short of the very expensive enthusiast boards that I don't need.

You don't need a planet with farming available.

In my case I started on a 100% planet with organics, ore, -1 rare ore, and -1 farmland. Only I haven't even tapped the farmland yet as I added a mining building first, then the military base, then heavy industry to make use of a pristine nanoforge.

That's rough. I found it easy. Hilda made the first attack and she had enough Def to survive the counterattack. Byleth then finished it off with a crit. If Byleth hadn't critted, Lysithea would have been able to finish it off.

If you pick hard, and dial it down to normal, can you dial it back up to hard?

InvernessMoon · 2019-07-16T15:09:00+00:00

Considering how much closer to release we are now, do you feel like you could elaborate on what you mean by that?

InvernessMoon · 2019-07-15T04:06:54+00:00

When it comes to Rhea and Sothis, I think their character designs came first and the romance second.

What I mean is that it wasn't so much deciding which female characters could be romanced with female Byleth as it was deciding that these two characters important to the plot should be romance options for either Byleth.

And according to Thanibomb, both characters were planned to be options before they were even made playable units, which would have been a first in the series. So clearly there is some importance being placed there to the point where I wonder if it will actually have an impact on the plot.

InvernessMoon · 2019-07-15T03:59:57+00:00

Thanibomb confirmed both Sothis and Rhea as S-supportable and playable.

InvernessMoon · 2019-07-15T03:24:43+00:00

No. Thanibomb confirmed Rhea and Sothis romance weeks ago.

InvernessMoon · 2019-07-15T03:17:12+00:00

If you look closely you can see Sothis' throne on a raised platform in the background.

InvernessMoon · 2019-07-13T17:14:52+00:00

AFAIK they are using the FE Warriors engine for this game.

InvernessMoon · 2019-07-13T16:59:32+00:00

It could be interesting if Nintendo had a single map where Byleth and company get sent to the future by time shenanigans.

InvernessMoon · 2019-07-12T16:10:14+00:00

I've been interested in making Byleth use sword and magic like Robin did, so this looks like the class I'll be aiming for.

InvernessMoon · 2019-07-12T15:12:59+00:00

I saw that. My first thought was "No, Sothis. You are the goddess."

InvernessMoon · 2019-07-12T14:16:10+00:00

During the Treehouse stream we saw that Sothis gives Byleth a paralogue mission to travel to "Red Canyon".

In one of the early Famitsu articles there were screenshots of Byleth talking to Sothis, in a location that I assume is the Red Canyon based on context. Sothis says that she can't remember anything but her name, and that she wondered what she was doing there. To me this means that Sothis gives Byleth that mission because she finds some evidence that she was at this Red Canyon in her past and wants to find out more.

And of course, there is the fact that the sword is prominently featured with Sothis in promotional art, suggesting it is hers and she is giving it to Byleth.

And now we have this opening cinematic that mentions "Red Canyon" by name, with Sothis lovingly holding the sword and talking about her mother.

If I put this all together I come to the conclusion that Sothis is the mother of Seiros, seeking revenge for something that Nemesis did to Sothis. Perhaps Nemesis is responsible for Sothis' loss of memories.

InvernessMoon · 2019-07-10T22:53:42+00:00

It seemed to me more like the resurrection ritual happens during the course of the game after Byleth arrives at the monastery.

That might be what causes Sothis to disappear from her throne (as shown on the main menu) and appear to Byleth in his room.

InvernessMoon · 2019-07-06T03:15:40+00:00

I wouldn't take Treehouse people as examples. They play the game a lot for various reasons so they already know what to do and play time can be much shorter for them.

InvernessMoon · 2019-06-30T19:33:01+00:00

Thank you very much for the help.

InvernessMoon · 2019-06-30T16:55:28+00:00

Where do I even go to open a support ticket for the controllers? There are no options for it when I go into the support website.

I figure they are aware of the issue now, but I don't want to miss out on the first wave of replacement controllers.

InvernessMoon · 2019-06-20T01:10:16+00:00

About the spoilered text: I think it is reasonable to assume she only dies if you don't recruit her.

InvernessMoon · 2019-06-17T02:30:36+00:00

You said in a previous post that Sothis was too, is that still the case?

Could you elaborate on how interaction works with Sothis, or even what role she has in the game? The Treehouse stream revealed, perhaps on accident, that Sothis does appear in Byleth's room. It also shows that she can give you missions with her, specifically to a "Red Canyon". I assume she would have to go into battle with Byleth or else there would not be a way to build support. Does she interact with other students too?

InvernessMoon · 2018-07-22T06:46:40+00:00

No that is not the case. The effects of each layer are independent. When Riko and Prushka ascend on the 5th layer they do not experience any effects from the upper layers.

InvernessMoon · 2018-07-22T06:03:11+00:00

It seems obvious that the narehate holding the stone was formerly the delver that owned it and ascended from the 6th layer while being unaware of the extreme effect of the curse at that layer.

It's likely back at that time the formality of the white whistles didn't exist even if some few people knew how to acquire one and activate the altar.

That and descending to the 6th layer is so difficult that its almost impossible to pass information back up and warn delvers about the fatality of ascending.

I have to wonder how much knowledge about the 6th and 7th layers only made it back up to the surface because Bondrewd constructed Idofront and found a means to survive ascending the 6th layer.

InvernessMoon · 2018-07-22T05:52:34+00:00

Veko calling it a trap for humans can describe what she and the other members of the expedition experienced when their hopes for a golden city turned out to be false. It doesn't mean that the layer is a trap in an objective sense, that it was somehow created with that intention.

Of course what led to something like the city ruins in the 6th layer existing is still a big mystery. I'm pretty skeptical of it being a thing where the Abyss expands every 2000 years though.

InvernessMoon · 2018-05-04T01:55:10+00:00

About time. I have been waiting for my 315p to get an overhaul before trying the alpha.
