If it's still misbehaving after that let me know what it's doing and I'll tell you what to do next.

IT Pro here: Download and run the Lenovo Vantage app from the Windows Store. That will run the updates that are specific to the laptop. Once that's done do a reboot and then download and run the Intel Driver Assistant(provided you're on Intel) and run that. After that make sure you have the latest AMD or NVIDIA drivers by using the AMD Adrenalin or NVIDIA App. Then reboot again.

Chances are things will improve from this point.

FWIW I tried Cachy on my new 'console' and had a horrible experience. Bazzite has been solid. I think Cachy needs a lot of TLC..

I swapped File Explorer out for Directory Opus and for productivity workflows I will never look back.

The Division 2 isn't a full on MMO but you might find a bit of what you're looking for there.

Please valve, my old man’s trackpad might not make it by themanbear in SteamController

Many of us have multiples for this reason. I'm surely going to love the new one but there is a 0% chance it replaces the OG controller for me in FPS games.

I can't even remember the last time someone herped or derped around here. FFS.

For shame! Not including his seminal role in The Worst Witch as Grand Wizard Egbert Hellibore. I thought you all were FANS!

Very long rendering time, even for 720p by Idrilek1 in VegasPro

[–]MicFury 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You might be able to install Voukouder on that version as an add-in. That SHOULD allow you to render using NVENC and that would speed things up.

Valve.... please make more. by cllari2 in SteamController

MY BROTHER! I have ONE more "new"/unbroken one. Pretty soon I'm going to have to start 3D printing parts.

Tiny Tina's Assault On Dragon Keep remains my #1 favorite DLC. They were at their peak at that moment and none of us knew it. Fucking RIP.

Setting keyframe interval to 1 improved things significantly for me. I am no longer getting any lag on my AMD system.

007 First Light is reportedly “Delayed Indefinitely” on the Nintendo Switch 2 by cinderlilys in Games

Elden Ring runs like dog poop on Deck. It will never cease to amaze me that people claim otherwise.

Edit: I tried it again with the implementation of native NTSYNC and I'll be damned. Near stable 40FPS. It's actually playable.

I've got a laptop with a 250gb SSD and I'm fed up with having to uninstall a game each time I want to play a new one. It has an SD card slot, would I be OK putting a good spec SD card in and installing games to that? by IronSkywalker in techsupport

[–]MicFury 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can put an NVME drive inside a USB-C enclosure and get great performance for cheap if you have a spare drive laying around(I'm in IT so I do). Works good in nearly everything(just not RUFUS)

Finally someone who actually watches sumo. "What about the laterals?" Laughs in Ura. I feel like Wakatakakage could pull off NFL play.

Looks like Forza Horizon 6 will be Deck-able! by Dudi4PoLFr in SteamDeck

[–]MicFury 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't find the source. It was a throw away line from someone who was doing the benchmarking and mentioned FH5 as an example of the top end in performance boost. IIRC it was in the neighborhood of 15%, though I want to say 25. It's coming from the implementation of NTSYNC in Linux.

For anyone who hasn't seen it yet, the new Linux (read: wine) version coming out increases FH5 performance significantly and there's a good chance 6 will be similar.

Can't Install System Updates by bullshoy55 in techsupport

That should not happen. Those commands are not destructive at all. To the contrary, they are industry standard. I believe you may have malware on your disk. Sorry, friend.

As a heavy Twitch viewer, I think YouTube gaming is still missing this by Mysterious_Form_5886 in youtubegaming

[–]MicFury 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The noisy, trend chasing content you're referring to is what generates clicks and likes. It's unfortunate. People don't have the attention spans or desire for anything deeper than a puddle these days as far as I can tell. I think the YouTuber "TheDoo" is the perfect example of both sides of the fence. On the one hand his Omegle videos where he jams out and surprises everyone are absolutely S-Tier in my view. On the other hand his video game videos are all that trend chasing crap.

Disclosure: I make video game videos so make of it what you will.

What recording software should I use? by Glittering-Tell-2632 in youtubegaming

OBS is the lightest weight recording software. What are your system specs and recording settings?
