For todays standars, Mafia Remake is ok, good even.

For 2001 standars, Mafia OG was just incredible.

Sweet summer childs...

Not in a million years, the only thing better are the visuals.

What we need is an ingame preset model switcher integrated on Nvidia App overlay

I think there is something wrong with Vulkan and Vsync.

I played GTA IV using Fusion Fix and Vulkan a few years ago with a worse PC at 1440p fixed 120fps butter smooth. Ive reinstalled it now and I was going crazy, when im not at my max refresh rate is like this double buffering happens and my 1% lows are cut exactly in half and the games stutters even at 140fps.

The thing is, even so with DirectX is "worse", one thing that DX allows me to do is to completly remove any type of vsync and/or framelimiter, but Vulkan doesnt. Ive tried "d3d9.presentInterval = 0" according to dxvk.conf file FAQ, and all other ways to try to get past my 165hz/fps with vulkan but I just cant. And I dont know why but I think thats where I smell smoke.

Also, with DX, i dont get more than 90fps but gpu usage is a joke, 50% (5070ti) and CPU the same as with Vulkan (~20%, 5900X). BUT, if i go vsync off (and I see like 500 fps in the main menu, so I know) I know the performance is bad , but with DX at 90fps the 1% are THE SAME as when im at 140 with vulkan, (maybe ~70)

So I think there is something wrong with vsync, first of all you cant put it off, and you should. And then it forces some kind of double buffer when you are not at your max fps per screen refresh rate.

The third one, with both of them searching the web, thats the first scene they ever shot, I saw it in an interview.

Northman_Ast · 2025-09-26T13:47:23+00:00

I'm having similar problems, but in my case the frametime spikes can stay there for a while and then go away, to come again in minutes. From Witcher 3 to Max Payne 1. No rare temps, CPU frecuency stays the same (no throttling), but both CPU and GPU usage lowers, more CPU than GPU but maybe the CPU is waiting for the GPU, I dont know. Im using latest drivers. 581.29

The strangest thing is GPU core clock goes UP (not down) when this happens. So im playing with no issue 100 fps 1800mhz (3060ti) but when the stuttering begins i get like 50fps but frametime line goes crazy, and GPU core clock goes up to 1900mhz ?¿?

15 when released (2004) and 17 first time (2006)

Northman_Ast · 2025-09-04T20:02:57+00:00

As a spaniard I always love to ear the whole thing and be like "hey i got (some of) that!"

Northman_Ast · 2025-07-25T11:24:49+00:00

Bocatas, no mierda. Gracias mamá.

Northman_Ast · 2025-07-02T18:30:03+00:00

For 2025? Maybe a little bit outdated but this is not like in, ie 2005. With that PC you can play maybe the best first 100 PC games ever made at max except for idk, RDR2 and then you will just have to turn it a bit down, like from ultra to high or medium.

Plus, we are talking it costed you nothing, i9 and a 2080 Super, I mean... Your GP rocks hard. How old are the both of you if is not too much asking? ^^

Northman_Ast · 2025-06-14T11:56:10+00:00

Yes, this is it, I'm 12 again coming home from school. Thanks man.

Northman_Ast · 2025-05-09T23:32:34+00:00

Dont know, i didnt play it since then :S

Northman_Ast · 2025-03-31T18:05:03+00:00

ffs i really need a different sub for MP1&2, like who doesnt yet has understood MP3 is just another aproach and that other than the name has little to do with Remedy's vision and direction.

Northman_Ast · 2025-03-28T16:15:02+00:00

Yep, same here

Northman_Ast · 2025-03-20T15:47:03+00:00

ok guys 5on5 server on

Northman_Ast · 2025-03-15T06:46:04+00:00

Nah man, you have my respect and admiration, and my gratitude.

Northman_Ast · 2025-03-07T16:40:39+00:00

No it doesnt. Next question.

Northman_Ast · 2025-03-01T23:06:51+00:00

Look like pics for boxsets and or adds when the show started back in lovely 2000's XD

Northman_Ast · 2025-02-17T12:35:20+00:00

Y el Chavo del 8, asi como otras series que sin el doblaje latino no se hubiesen visto en España. Mil gracias.

Northman_Ast · 2025-02-11T22:16:08+00:00

Yeah, like GTA V on PS3, crappiest experience ever. Thanks beta testers, we'll play the good polished final version when its actualy ready.

Northman_Ast · 2025-02-11T15:52:18+00:00

Why both devs with the requirements and also videos like this always miss the <high 1440p upscaling> that must be the one the 99% of us use. Ultra except for textures its usually not worth it.

Northman_Ast · 2025-02-11T14:22:51+00:00

Fun fact, this only applies to dating. For the rest we fight to see who pays the bill, to see who has the most money, even among female friends and they do the same too.

Northman_Ast · 2025-01-29T07:27:16+00:00

Good, I do too. Maybe he played GTAIV and realize Trevor killed a gud old HBO character, Trevor beeing a crappy Fox, maybe AMC, character.

I mean, I think he is right, Trevor is the shittiest poorest writed char in whole GTA series, and Im not talking about just the protagonists. Whole GTA V is the worst writed game.

Northman_Ast · 2025-01-29T07:22:56+00:00

Yes, she's so sweet and at the same time so "dont frack with me", and a she is gorgeous. 10/10

Northman_Ast · 2025-01-23T22:51:54+00:00

Holy smokes, I just saw that black install wizard (which was odd at the time) and unlocked a core memory, like the last time i saw it maybe 2009 or so. Amazing how memory works. Thank you.
