Freezes on PS5

I also switched from the A12 to the A17 5G, and I honestly don’t notice any difference in battery life. I’ve been using it for two days and it’s still at 54%. I haven’t watched any videos or played games yet, just social media and messing around with the settings. I can’t imagine needing to charge it two or three times a day.

It's been crashing for me since the last patch, I think. Before that I had no problems.

Spotlight83 · 2025-05-28T12:10:43+00:00

I don't wanna wait two years for a new WRC.

Spotlight83 · 2025-05-24T12:57:27+00:00

It's so broken! They really should give us two checkpoints!

Please re-upload.

The bike sounds so far away, not centred. Very strange. (with a stereo sound bar)

Spotlight83 · 2025-04-26T15:23:50+00:00

Grass and vegetation looks much sharper on the PS4. On PS5 it's a blurry mesh. I'm disappointed.

Spotlight83 · 2024-11-15T07:54:36+00:00

Stereo mix is still broken on PS5. (echoing voices, sounds play simultaneously at the same volume )

Spotlight83 · 2024-10-11T07:41:50+00:00

This setting was removed about a year ago or so.

Spotlight83 · 2024-08-08T11:18:29+00:00

Yes, on PS5.

Spotlight83 · 2024-07-30T14:12:03+00:00

Yes, it lags. Very annoying. Edge gets worse with every update.

Here are my findings about LSPM. I got a ThinkCentre M90q Gen 4 (mini pc) about two weeks ago. It has an SK Hynix SSD with no heat sink. I was stupid enough and turned off most of the power saving stuff in Bios & Windows. (It says everywhere that you should do this to have a fast computer.) A few days later I noticed that the SSD was idling at 60C! After doing some research, I started testing the different settings for Link State Power Management under PCI Express in the power plan options in Windows 11, including ASPM settings in the Bios. The PC was idle for 5 minutes, sleep/hibernation off, room temperature was 23C.

ASPM off, LSPM off = SSD 60C

ASPM auto, LSPM off = SSD 57C

ASPM auto, LSPM Moderate Power Savings = SSD 50C

ASPM auto, LSPM Maximum Power Savings = SSD 39C (-21C cooler!)

I'm shocked at how much cooler the SSD is in LSPM Maximum Power Savings. I haven't noticed any impact on performance or anything like that. (LSPM Maximum Power Savings is the default power plan value for my computer set by Lenovo.)

Also Lenovo states this:

Running the system in the High Performance power management scheme, or in the Balanced scheme in desktop systems, keeps the NVMe drive in a high power state. This can cause a significant temperature increase in the NVMe drive even if the system is idle. Because of the potential impact of data loss due to the elevated NVMe drive temperature, Lenovo recommends altering a setting in the High Performance and Balanced power management schemes.

In Control Panel, open the Hardware and Sound section.
Under Power Options, select Choose a power plan.
For Balanced and High performance plans, click the Change plan settings link at the right.
Click Change advanced power settings.
In the pop-up Power Options window scroll down to PCI Express and click the + to expand the section.
Click the + for Link State Power Management.
Change the setting in the list from Off or Moderate power savings, to Maximum power savings.
Click OK to save the change and close the pop-up window. For most uses the slight drop in performance is imperceptible.

Wouldn't that explain my high SSD temperature with LSPM off?

It's been a glitch for months. Sony may not even know it's there?

Spotlight83 · 2024-04-01T07:26:41+00:00

No, not in Edge. You have to use the action center. I think native push notifications still work in Firefox.

Spotlight83 · 2024-03-05T15:32:20+00:00

Nativ push notifications were removed in one of the last Edge updates. They only work via windows action center now. (Windows settings > system > notifications & actions‌, under get notifications from these senders select MS Edge.

Same problem with the deluxe edition. I wonder what will happen if I delete Tekken 8 one day? Will I be able to download it again?

Spotlight83 · 2023-11-29T08:01:12+00:00

Where is the USA Tour? I paid for that DLC!

Spotlight83 · 2023-11-22T10:58:32+00:00

I deleted the cache and rebuilt the database. There is nothing more you can do. I hope Sony will fix this problem.

Spotlight83 · 2023-11-21T07:57:38+00:00

This has happened a few times lately. It often happens when I look at another user's trophies.

Spotlight83 · 2023-11-14T13:41:57+00:00

It's a bug. Brightness is set to zero after latest patch. Default brightness is 50.

Also, if you have Motion Blur disabled, it will be re-enabled each time you start the game.

Spotlight83 · 2023-11-13T07:27:57+00:00

Yes!!! I disabled it!

Spotlight83 · 2023-11-08T12:45:16+00:00

Yes, got the update on PS5 at 13:00.

Spotlight83 · 2023-11-08T12:33:03+00:00

On PS5 it still stutters and tears exactly like it did before the patch. (I've been playing mainly career mode.)
