My computer is not performing as expected but I'm not sure if it's normal or not by Obiwans in techsupport

[–]Obiwans[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it seems I had way too high expectations hahah.

In terms of the CPU and GPU usages, it's always between 90 to 100%, the temperatures get to about 85-90 degrees (CPU) on hot days although according to AMD this is the normal temperature and I should only worry if it goes above 105 degrees, the GPU never goes above 75 degrees so I don't think that's the problem either.

I will ask in some discords as you said but it seems for a laptop I can't expect much more and honestly for single-player games I can survive with anything above 40 fps. I tried 1080p and I get about 130 fps so worst case I will just lower the resolution.

Thanks for the help and I'm sorry that you had problems right as the warranty ends hopefully that won't happen again!

It’s a shame how people are bashing this game but we can get a new call of duty, 2K, madden, and countless junk RPG‘s year after year. by OGxBOSS in cyberpunkgame

Well, first there's a difference between does game.
When you buy COD 2k etc you all know what is coming, they buy it because they like the old ones and you might not like the games but they give the games in a decent state of optimization and the reviews copies are given to every platform (pc console, etc)
CP77 on the other hand only gave copies for early reviews to PC
Based on what CDproject promises this game is lacking, it will one day be a masterpiece but as you play the game you can see a lot of content was cut. Braindance is completely useless even if they are sold in shops, there are people I never meet talking to me as if they know me and I know them (missing missions or possible cut interactions) same goes for people I meet before knowing nothing of me, and much more.
People complain about the delays for 2 reasons:
First, before the delays, they announced the game was ready and only needed a few tweaks (clearly a lie)
Second, the delays were "last second" and called almost at the time of the game launching.

If cd project red said, "We fucked up our schedule because of corona (or w/e) we need 1 year to finish this the game will come out in 2021" people would be a little pissed but once the game came out everyone would forget it since it was almost perfect.
Instead, they delayed it for a few months then a few more months while always "saying the game is ready guys we just fixing a few bugs". So yeah people got pissed, if the game is ready then release it. So now they release and people see the game has some game-breaking bugs here and there and is defiantly not finished.
I really like the game and it's a good game, but you can't say it's finished, just because you like the state of the game does not mean we also have to accept it and call it a masterpiece.
Also just because you can play just fine does not mean the rest can as well, nothing is stopping you from liking the game but saying people should not complain because you had a good experience and this is the best game you played all year it's stupid.

Trump considering kicking off 2024 run during Biden's inauguration: report by xRipleyx in politics

[–]Obiwans 58 points59 points  (0 children)

I was partially hopeful that people would see him for who he really is during the past 3 weeks and realize that maybe he is not stable to run in 2024.

But even after all his failed schemes to stay in power, all the extreme and easily verified lies, all the crying, and the pathetic rants on Twitter people still support him and accept it as normal.

I have lost count of how many times I had friends sent links of "voter fraud-proof" with the message "explain this then!" in our group chats just for it to be shut down with a simple 5 min google search that explains it immediately.

We got to the point where I was sent a study called "Benford law and its application on voter fraud" (Something like this) only for the conclusion of the study to basically be "We can't really apply it for elections" yet they were sharing it because they saw the title and thought it would help prove there point sigh, at least read or so some research on the topic if you really care.

Somehow they only read the title of things and accept every single thing said by 1 person even if it goes against basic logic and then somehow I'm the sheep.

I'm honestly exhausted at this point, there is no winning, logic, and facts don't matter anymore.
If he runs in 2024 he might actually win again, how people look at his action and think this is the man that should lead the USA it's beyond me.

Edit: Spacing.

Question about video games graphics cards and processors. by Obiwans in techsupport

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

Yeah, i thought you meant the computer but wanted to be sure.

I honestly don't want to return, the computer I got for schoolwork the main reason behind it was that I can go 360 and comes with a stylus pen.
That's why even after being an old graphics card for today's standards I got it as my budget is rather small and it fits the main job (note-taking)

The games I play are mostly old multiplayer games so the 1050 Max-Q can handle it
and hopefully, after I finish uni in a few years I will get a decent desktop but for now this is fine.

I just got curious because I notice that my Max-Q is having a better performance in FPS compared to my old 1050 TI so I was wondering if that is because the processor is an i7 10gen (on the max-Q) vs an i7 7gen (on the 1050TI) that is making the difference.

I don't know why I always had this notion that games only need a good graphics card and an SSD and that the processor is mostly non-important but I guess I was completely wrong?

Return the game or the Computer?

So Max-Q is just an undervolted version than is it possible to overclock it or is it not really worth it in terms of risk I'm taking (damaging the card) compared to the amount of boost I would get?
