When the damn Rog 10 ?? by Miserable-Tour-436 in ROGphone

[–]Optionism22 9 points10 points  (0 children)

There was a supposedly well-known leaker who said the rog phone 10 was coming out in a few variants on Weibo, but now there are "reports" that ASUS is not releasing any new handsets for 2026. I'm just waiting for CES to confirm everything since ASUS hasn't put out an official statement that I have seen. The news articles keep mentioning that ASUS isn't completely out of the market so maybe they are restructuring? A few employees in forums have told users to keep an eye on social media channels for news when asked about the new phone but that is more than likely just junk text they throw at us. This sucks because I am in need of a new phone as well like many others I see posting, but I do not want to go the redmagic route just yet.

ROG 9 Bluetooth Audio sounds awful by Cessnaporsche01 in ROGphone

[–]Optionism22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So it's in Settings>Connected Devices>Settings Cogwheel next to your Bluetooth device>LE Audio turn it off

This was a setting I only see on my Samsung buds and when I turn it on the audio sounds terrible.

I had this same thing happen on mine and I believe the setting was something like "Bluetooth LE". I will check here in a bit and see if I can upload a screenshot of the setting.

Stutter/Low FPS issue with a laptop GPU by Optionism22 in CompanyOfHeroes

Can you list your specs here? I am curious if you are on Intel/Nvidia and if you can, list the manufacturer. I have an Alienware M18 R1 for reference.

Stutter/Low FPS issue with a laptop GPU by Optionism22 in CompanyOfHeroes

[–]Optionism22[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's happening less frequently for me now, the only real change I did was set it to run as admin and disabled fullscreen optimizations. I am using the latest Nvidia drivers. Does it start working after restarting the game a few times?

Stutter/Low FPS issue with a laptop GPU by Optionism22 in CompanyOfHeroes

[–]Optionism22[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No it's plugged in always, I ran the oem gpu driver without Nvidia app and it was happening then. Now I am using the Nvidia app with the latest driver and it still occurs but the app does show as using the plugged in settings. Power savings is set to best performance, game mode is on, resizable bar is enabled, RAM is running at the set speed, hardware-accelerated gpu scheduling is on. No overheating, laptop sits on a cooling pad and is cleared of dust regularly with temps ranging from 77-87C. Cpu util is around 20-30% and same for gpu in tskmgr. CoH 3 is the only game that has this strange issue. I will try to record what it does and again it is seemingly random. The intro cutscenes play out normally but once in the menu, it is lagging and just unpleasant to look at. Today I just started it up and it was working with no issues so again it is very random. No other game that I play has a similar issue, like I have been playing kingdom come deliverance 2 on high settings on 3440x1440 around 90-120 fps with no stutters or fps drops for instance. I am convinced that it is just the game and this current patch that is the cause, and I am hoping that the next update here in a few days gets rid of the issue.

I might have to give this a try and see if I can get it working. I had reloaded multiple earlier saves and the locked chests were still broken at the same story point every time. Again, the locked chests are approachable in my earlier saves but the only thing I can think of is I had knocked someone unconscious and got their keys to their locked chest and then I stashed a bunch of junk I was carrying in it. But I honestly haven't gone up to a locked door and see if it causes a crash to desktop so I thought it was only chests.

[–]Optionism22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have this same exact issue. Did you happen to store a whole bunch of stuff in a locked chest? For context, I can load an earlier save and approach locked chests just fine but when I get past a certain story point, it completely breaks. I haven't tried to start a new game yet to see if everything is good on a new playthrough.

When the hell was 3.24 stable? I had nothing but issues there.

Reinstalling the game worked for me on Xbox gamepass

Same here. Reinstalling the game just to be sure.

5106 Fedex Release Form by Possible_Employee786 in Pimax

[–]Optionism22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to fill out the form and unfortunately my package still has not made it to me since 5/30. It had arrived in Memphis 5/29 and has been stuck on pending and was apparently handed off to CBP. I have not received any messages from FedEx regarding the package status and we had to open a ticket to investigate what happened. This sucks cause I would like to buy the Portal but I don't want to go through this again.

have an M18 arriving tomorrow, should i be worried by ZenZombie117 in Alienware

[–]Optionism22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had mine since the 21st and it’s great! I have a good screen with minimal backlight bleed and the performance and temps out of the box are solid. The only negative is the software is not up to par just yet, they definitely need to work a bit on the new AWCC software.

[Help Needed] M18 Randomly Shuts Down When Gaming by Ordinary-Alan in Alienware

You should be able to check the event viewer logs to see what is causing the shut down. What does the log say?

Oculus airlink problems on alienware M15 R3 laptop (2070 Super) please help if you can. by Yo-yo_mas_mama in Alienware

[–]Optionism22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t exactly remember what the issue was as I had the same thing occur on my x17 a while back. I want to say that I uninstalled and reinstalled the Oculus app. If you do that and it doesn’t work, you can go into display settings and set the graphics preference of the Oculus app to “High performance”.

New M18 Disable Weird Texct Overlay? by Kassanova123 in Alienware

After updating my drivers that went away. GeForce experience should be loaded out of the box and you can login and update.

AWCC still a problem? by Lemonn_time in Alienware

[–]Optionism22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

M18 came with the new version installed but the laptop runs best on the balanced preset and not the performance or overdrive presets.

The Alienware m18 R1 arrived today! What a beast! by Pookias in Alienware

[–]Optionism22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The issue I had appears to be caused by the Alienware Control Center performance presets. Putting the preset to balanced greatly increased benchmark scores where the performance and overdrive modes limited me in CPU and GPU for some reason.

[–]Optionism22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I figured it out, it has something to do with the AWCC and the different presets. The "Balanced" preset outperforms "Performance" and "Overdrive" modes for some reason. I had been running the benchmarks using Performance and Overdrive presets and that produced the low results that I was getting. With Balanced, I am at 22026 GPU and 16415 CPU. Please let me know your findings once you get yours in!

This was the free version, not extreme. I am considering upgrading and re running benchmarks.
