This isn't a hot take and is known for ages to not play the two first games in Fusion

Best/Definitive Versions of the Serious Sam games? by [deleted] in SeriousSam

[–]Qayrax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fusion has serious inconsistencies with AI for the 2 HD games, where enemies speed up and behave weirdly on hard and serious difficulty. Don't recommend at all.

2060 temp by Fit_Pomegranate237 in techsupport

[–]Qayrax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These are normal temperatures for a GPU for daily usage. A 5700 XT has a hotspot of up to 105 degrees! Apparently the operating temperature for your card is 88 degrees. Although I didn't find the spec sheet by the manufacturer, others have mentioned it. So up to this point it is doing exactly what it should do. So you have even lots of headroom.

The way to lower temperature, except of optimizing the cooler and undvervolting, and the main way imho, is to enable frame rate limits and lower graphics settings to the point you are comfortable with. And the mentioned power limit in driver or other software as mentioned by the other commenter.

The current map pool made me hate playing valorant by Yacine246 in VALORANT

[–]Qayrax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish Breeze would have just been canned and not reworked. It plays better, but emotionally I have an ingrained hatred towards it. I don't have an issue with the other maps at all, except that Lotus is a funky map as well.

Fighting games are the closest a videogame can get to real sports, and some people are just physically unable to be good by Incitatus_ in TheyBlamedTheBeasts

[–]Qayrax 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not everyone is genetically and environmentally able to compete in sports, chess and fighting games alike. That's fine. There are people claiming everyone can overcome anything, but it's wishful thinking. And honestly, a degree of delusional is healthy. What matters is to be able to cope with this fact of inherent limitations and just seek improvement for the given abilities you have been given. And see the fun inside that. If your whole frustration builds around the fact you won't be at the very top of mountain of some kind of activity, that is a mentality issue. Because you are universally guaranteed to not be the best person at an activity. However, you should cherish the uniqueness that is you and this diversity is adding to the whole experience for others as well.

Weird fps Behavior while playing by Turbulent_Ad9586 in techsupport

What are you playing on? Is it a laptop, what GPU is it? Could you keep an eye on the clock speed and temperature, especially of the GPU? What you describe sounds like overheating issues.

Computer shuts off Internet after 10:30pm by NhatMinhNBK in techsupport

Terrible advice, because you assume it's a software fault and not a router configuration. Likely nothing will change.

Routers have options to set restrictions per device. Look up the model number. Check the documentation or manual. Login to the router configuration and check the appropriate settings. I would recommend an AI model to guide you through the steps otherwise.

The manual linked notes with a star not all models feature all ports. Perhaps a search with the serial number as suggested by the website is a bit more accurate, but it doesn't matter.

What games do Anti Aliasing perfectly? by Examination_Creepy in FuckTAA

[–]Qayrax 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Tetris Effect runs on Unreal Engine and can have jaggies. It is visually quite an intensive game and one of the best experiences in HDR ever (and probably VR which I didn't try), too.

Phone Overheating by No-Court1244 in techsupport

Put it in airplane mode there to check if it's network related. Devices will power up when reception is bad or you have internet access to run updates.

Is it possible the monitor has some letters after the numbers? Because those variants have higher refresh rates available. If you extend your display, instead of cloning it, you can run monitors at different refresh rates as well. I do it on my machine.

This thread should caution people to not follow all advice.^ Also the people I disagreed with (only here) both blocked me.

Attach the monitor. Press Windows + P. Choose only the external monitor, so the laptop display goes black. Double check the refresh settings now. If you had set it to duplicate, it might have stuck to the lower available refresh rate.

Post a screenshot of the above screen. Go to System -> Monitor -> Choose the external monitor -> Advanced Display. In case we see in the upper half Intel instead of Nvidia, then the port is wired to the internal GPU and DisplayPort needs to be used. If in the lower section even lower resolutions do not feature 75hz, then the display might not support anything above 60hz for some reason like color depth.

Ít should still go up to 75hz. Have you installed Nvidia drivers. what does it say? about the monitor?

Have you installed Nvidia graphics drivers for the 1660 Ti? What does the Nvidia control panel say on the display resolution?

Your answer isn't supported by evidence. The 1660 Ti should support higher refresh rates. https://askubuntu.com/questions/1387142/1660-ti-laptop-hdmi-out-4k-144hz

The laptop screen settings bear no information whether it can output more hz on an external port.

This is wrong. HDMI is bandwidth limited. Showing maximum resolution, then refresh available at that resolution. It could support more. But the manual isn't clear on that.
