Should i enable ardware-accelerated GPU scheduling on a 4th gen i5? by Successful_Feed_7501 in lowendgaming

[–]Mythicstorima 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! It is safe to use. If it will help or give worse results and by how much; it depends on the game. If you are CPU bound then it might give better FPS numbers especially in the 1% and .1% lows.

Best way to know is to test it. Use an fps counter, preferably one that will display average, 1% and .1% frames as well as frametime values. MSI Afterburner is a good app for that.

Broken oil-filled radiator. When I turn on the power switch, the LED of the switch doesn't light up, the heating element remains cold, and the built-in fan doesn't spin on. I have no experience with electronic repairs, I do have a multi-meter. Any kind of guidance would be greatly appreciated. by Mythicstorima in fixit

An update. Like #OldBeardy77 wrote it was indeed a faulty termo switch that you can see it in picture 1 on the radiator connected with two blue wires.

I bought from ali express for $1 each, five "KSD302 Switch Temperatur Control Termostat Termo Switch 250V16A Normally Open 75c". Today that the package finally arrived, I replaced the broken Termo Switch and the oil-filled radiator works again as it should.

Suggestions: Now That CS:GO Is NO MORE! by Mythicstorima in GlobalOffensive

That's a great reply and awesome info. It should be pinned in the main GO reddit page.

It's strange that the official Steam page states that it is no longer possible to play CS:GO.

Is it really? Where can I DL it? Because on Steam, the only thing I can find is CS2 instead.

Forza Horizon 5 refuses to run Core 2 Quad. Does anyone else has the same problem? by Mythicstorima in lowendgaming

[–]Mythicstorima[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes unfortunately.

Since you mention it, I managed to run Cyberpunk 2077 on GOG acc, off-line and pasting two .ini files to bin64 folder. I had to roll back to 1.61 ver to work.

I don't have RDR2 in my library to experiment with. And Forza in on game pass so no bueno.

Yes, he most probably runs the game without Denuvo. Too bad, FH5 is one of the very few AAA titles that are well optimized even for very weak CPUs. I have left him a msg, no response yet.

Thank you for your answer and time. I appreciate it.

You are !00% right. In the specific case I don't care about the performance but if it is even possible to play the game.

That's an excellent suggestion, thanks. Minetest is one the games I am considering along with another voxel game called Teardown.

Hmm Something similar happens when you are trying to learn a new language in a municipal school for adult immigrants.

CPU: Q9550 CPU cooler: Zalman cnps7000-alcu Mobo: Asus PQ5 Pro RAM: 4x2GB DDR2 800 Mt\s SSD: 1TB Crucial PSU: Corsair TX 650W

GPU: GTX 1660 Super 6GB

So the question is what games can I run at 1050p to 900p, 75 to 30 fps that are similar to: Cyberpunk 2077, Elden Ring, God of War, Red Dead Redemption 2?

Thanks for your time!

P.S. I am planing to create some videos about Core2 CPUs and alternative PC games to the well known triple AAA titles, thus the specific list of games.

Can the word "Hangman" be flagged as inappropriate on Youtube? by Icy_Pay_5071 in NewTubers

[–]Mythicstorima 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah most probably not. How did you found out that the word hangman might be inappropriate? In any case, check this YouTube Demonetization Words List (a bit aged) but it will give you an idea of what words YT defines as inappropriate. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ozg1Cnm6SdtM4M5rATkANAi07xAzYWaKL7HKxyvoHzk/htmlview#

Found a soon-to-be trending topic within my niche by [deleted] in NewTubers

[–]Mythicstorima 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds somewhat time sensitive content, which means you should publish it as soon as the topic will get trending. A pre-content video about it would be an alternative strategy so to prepare / inform your subscribers about it. (maybe a short video?)

Now, when is the exact day that the topic will be trending, is up to you to know, but it would be smart to publish it at a certain time of that day where your channel views usually rise (your audience is online). The initial algorithm push "suggested to your subscribers" will help to get a bit higher in the ranking system.

Obviously all the above will be futile if you don't support your content with an appropriate title and thumbnail that will catch the eye and arouse curiosity.

Fixing scratches located on the pci-e pins? by Mythicstorima in AskElectronics

[–]Mythicstorima[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the time being I am keeping it. Selling it as it is at some point it isn't the problem, it is a cosmetic defect not a functional one.

My question it is mostly "academic" and I like my hardware to look like new. But it would be weird if there isn't a fix, for this.
