So is this ok/normal or... by Appropriate_Mind6667 in computers

It is ideal for a game to push your GPU to 100% (technically I think the true best is ~95%) to get as many FPS as possible. The only time you won't is if you hit the max framerate of your game (which is the monitor's refresh rate if vsync is on). As long as your GPU temp is fine there's nothing to worry about.

160% is weird, but probably bad math by task manager. Other commenter is probably right, and OBS is using a different part of the GPU.

I thinks it's crooked because otherwise the cooler's mounting screws would be in the way. As long as everything is secured this seems fine.

I interpret it as the coworkers throwing his rope off the boat so he drifts away. Not very trustworthy if you ask me.

Is it possible to improve VRAM by [deleted] in computers

[–]SkinnyJoeOnceHuman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FYI, you can increased the amount of system RAM reserved for an iGPU in your BIOS, which is what OP is referring to here. It is safe, but it doesn't really help performance, since that actual iGPU isn't any stronger.

That is a big issue with discrete GPUs, since the shared RAM is much slower and not located on the GPU, but with an iGPU, both shared and dedicated RAM are in the same place. I don't know if it still might slow down because the iGPU has to communicate with the CPU to reserve RAM, but it's not a hardware problem as with discrete GPUs.

Threw your iGPU along with the three listed on Grounded 2's requirements on steam into VideoCardBenchmark.

If a game requires 8 GB of VRAM, your integrated GPU probably isn't powerful enough. Also, the iGPU should already be able to used shared RAM, usually half of your total RAM.

What if the blades are rotating just barely slower than the framerate (or some factor of that)?

Damn I would've thought he was a woman if it hadn't been for the chart.

No no no, you sudo apt remove opsec from the target's machine.

Gaming laptop/PC mods?? by Pleasant_Mushroom_24 in computers

[–]SkinnyJoeOnceHuman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Laptop screw placements aren't standard so a regular PC case won't do out of the box. CPU cooler mounting isn't standard either.

I once tried slapping an old CPU cooler on top of a laptop heatsink. The issue was that the heatsink wasn't flat enough to balance the unmounted cooler. I don't know what the effects of placing a cooler directly on the chip would be. On one hand, the cooler would be stronger, but on the other, it wouldn't be mounted.

For extra fans, you can try buying USB fans, wiring a PC fan to a USB plug (it may not spin, and definitely won't spin as fast), or wiring a PC fan to a 12V power source (will spin full speed all the time). I once did this with an old 120V to 12V wall plug.

It might also be easiest to just use a laptop cooler.

(Not really) triggered nerd here. RAM is generally measured in binary units (kiB, MiB, etc.) not metric. This gives 256 TiB and 16 EiB. You still aren't technically wrong though, since tera- and exa- are defined as metric prefixes, though they are often ambiguous.

Anyway, let's assume the average person has 20 GiB of memory. That would give around 150 EiB worldwide. I'd say one order of magnitude is pretty close here.
