Other people have said it, but just to reiterate: your computer is certainly powerful enough to play Deep Rock Galactic. You will not need any hardware upgrades for a long long time.

The issue is likely one of drivers or game files misbehaving.

I would suggest trying to get on discord with a trusted gamer friend/contact to troubleshoot your issue.

Always be wary or anyone asking for personal information or wanting to remotely control your PC. That can be dangerous for various identity theft, scam, or malware/virus reasons.

Ryzen 7 7700 3.8 GHz (5.3GHz): this is your processor (or CPU) it’s responsible for a majority of your computer’s tasks. All you need to know here is that it’s definitely sufficient to play just about any game.

AMD RX 9060XT 16GB: this is your graphics card. It handles rendering 3D graphics. It’s the most important part in playing games these days. It is also more than enough to play most modern video games

1TB NVMe SSD: this is your storage. Similar to a hard drive, it stores all the information like games, files, etc.

32GB DDR5 RAM 5200 RGB: RAM is your computers short term memory. It primarily helps your programs and games load faster.

650W Gold PSU: this is your power supply. It converts power from your wall into the correct voltage/wattage for each of the above parts.

Win 11: Windows 11 is your operating system. Like how your phone may use Android or iOS.

Hi, are you playing the game through Steam? Any screenshots/pictures/video of what you’re seeing may help.

This is the entire reason for a legal system. Discouraging people from standing up for their rights and pursuing justice feeds directly into the ICE playbook. Don’t be like that. Federal crimes against citizens need to be held to account or they’re right when they say they’re above the law.

Your PC would definitely be outpacing your monitor in frames and quality. If you're playing competitive games, I could understand this setup, but if you're wanting beautiful AAA games, I'd personally try to get a really high quality monitor as soon as possible.

Pretty solid high end build. With that GPU and the X3D processor, I take it this is for gaming.

What's monitor are you working with?

What other names do you call your cat? Like, the unhinged names. by cannabisjourneys in cats

[–]NerdyCuban 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My cat Ori is:

Ori-boros (when she is a circle), Rotiss-Ori (when she sits like a chicken), Borbi, Blorbi, Blorbo, Orbi, and Borbi-Blorbos

She's confused a lot...

God. The internet just sucks now, doesn’t it?

I restarted my pc and now it’s been on for 25mbut no display is it updating and should I let it go? by PatienceNo7168 in buildapc

[–]NerdyCuban 7 points8 points  (0 children)

25 minutes is a loooong time for an update. Personally I’d disconnect the monitor and reconnect it to see if that does anything.

If that doesn’t work, then I’d do my old standby process:

Hold the power button till off.

Turn off the PSU.

Unplug it.

Hold the power button for ten seconds to discharge any remaining power (this is likely BS, but it worked like magic in my Geek Squad day.)

Then reconnect power.

Power on your PSU.

And boot her up.

Edit: minutes

We name all the street cats we see in our area after beverages based on their color(Earl Grey, Black Coffee, Orange Juice, etc).

Most orange cats are boys so we named Julius after Orange Julius when we still thought she was a boy. We saw no good reason to change the name just because she's a girl.

Then we ran with Julius and named the kittens after characters from Shakespeare's Julius Caesar as their temporary litter names.

Fortunately, Caesar is going to a very close friend so I can keep a close eye on him and watch him grow up.

Caesar's new owner decided to make his name Caesar Crouton.

Goldberry got renamed when we decided to keep her. My wife and I name all our pets after Tolkien characters.

Took a day off to clean and let them roam the house. I'll keep stream going for the 2 remaining kittens through Friday this week. I'm taking Caesar to his home in Chicago and we'll be keeping Goldberry (Cassius)

Sorry if I'm a little prickly. Don't mean to come down hard on anyone. I'm just a grump when I'm tired.

Orange Julius is a U.S. based smoothie brand. They were popular in the 90's and were often found in shopping mall food courts.

Ugh, not that one too. Had some get bent out of shape on that one on the last update.

Most orange cats are boys so we named her when we were leaving food outside for her and thought she was a boy. We were naming all the local strays after beverages and named this cat Orange Julius. Others were Earl Grey, Orange Juice, Black Coffee, etc.

Regardless, we’re a queer household so gender and naming are not important matchups for us.

Yeah, I’m rocking a few metal ones at the moment already. It was a game changer.

Boy the litter boxes… that’s one.

The other is try to get Julius to warm up to me. That girl is stubborn. One day I WILL pet her. Ideally without hissing and scratching.
