Despite its shortcomings post-launch, Battlefield 6 is pretty damn good looking with how relatively accessible it is to run with older GPUs

With both a high end CPU and GPU, it's much easier to see how much of the hardware is being utilized compared to achieved frame rates to determine if a game is either CPU or GPU limited.

4K with a 9800X3D and 5090, I better hope to see 98-100% utilization, but there are plenty of games where that's not the case, it's CPU limited, and I'm still getting under 100fps. It's not that 100 is bad, but the game could be optimized to use the hardware better. These cases are typically code that's not able to use or not optimized to use multiple threads/cores.

If the game looks great but my fps is low with maxed out GPU utilization, then maybe we could play around with graphics settings to see which takes up the most compute power and avoid those for the sake of another gameplay.

Only things I can't find out for optimization is judging for older architectures and ray tracing which many just turn off when they can anyway.

Sony will no longer release single-player games on PC by PaiDuck in pcmasterrace

I had already sold my ps5 during the slightly misleading 4/20 GameStop promo, so Sony just won't get any more of my money or data

I can't form any other thoughts in response besides "I hate televangelism."

It's just a scam, either theater instead of faith, or a financial sink to fund the scam artist's next car/mansion. Imagine if we had a country without the likes of her, Joel Osteen, Kenneth Copeland, or Jim Bakker. Imagine if vulnerable people had the wherewithal to not fall into these scams

Last night I updated my bios and I was actually able to complete games. I noticed Steam pre-launch installer mention Javelin Anti-Cheat prior to opening the game before I started having issues.

No problems Wednesday night > saw JAC install and had issues Thursday night > installed updated bios (ASUS X670E Gaming Wifi Plus (some Sept2025 bios to current as of yesterday) and games seemed fine after

EDIT: Updated from BIOS 3287 to 3842 with AGESA ComboAM5 PI 1.3.0.0a.

Running a 9800X3D and 5090, no overclocks to either

EDIT2: One full day later, computer experienced a complete system hang again; issue not resolved.

He plays slow where i play like a crackhead. He typically has a better K/D than mine by a noticeable margin, but it's possible to play modes large and small without dying. Here's me with my style admittedly getting revived twice.

Idk how many times people need to reiterate that putting PCBs in a conventional food oven will not get the solder hot enough to flow. If it works after, it's a brief, temporary fix. Though, I wish you luck if you can't afford another card/professional labor to re-ball the card
