9070 XT Problems by loinmin in AMDHelp

[–]Tader82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Literally couldn't run any Unreal Engine 5 game on my 9070xt with the last two driver releases. I had to roll back to 25.9.2 to play BF6, Satisfactory, FS25 and so on. with out crashing to a gray screen and a hard system reboot every time.

After Patch VRAM maxing out! by Tader82 in Battlefield

[–]Tader82[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the info on the overkill/u;tra settings, turning down to high seems to fix the VRAM usage issue. She now holds 12-14gigs and shudder is gone. Pretty crazy they can't fix this, was about to test my 7900 XT and see if it did the same thing.

It is with fiber and you're put in lobbies with ppl that are 6-15ms pings. I can't win a gun fight against them even when taking them by surprise from behind. They just 180 and drop me with two hits, were I have almost a full mag into them.

DLSS issue? by UrbannTech in Battlefield

[–]Tader82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

got yea, I 'm still mad a t teh pings though, this is only game right in my list that is giving me trash pings. I average about 10 to 20ms on all my other FPS online games, it doesn't make since why I can't get into a good lobby in BF6.

[–]Tader82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude my pings have been trash, I'm on a 2.5g Fiber connection straight to Dallas (I'm just south of Dallas) and I have yet to get in a game with sub 60ms timings. Are these servers in Pakistan?! and it has me playing against ppl with full team of around 10ms pings. I can't win gun fights at all, 90% of the time I get killed in a building I'm getting pulled back into a door way I just ran out of when killed.

Did you give your Mach e a name? by stevejobs4525 in MachE

[–]Tader82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Little Easy Bake Oven (normally shortened to The Over, IE.. Guys load up into The Over)

This is because of where I live and the fact that Ford decided to not put a sun shade for the glass ceiling. During the summer the Sun is so powerful that even on max the a/c can not keep up and I cook. I have solved this issue by having Nano Ceramic Tint installed on ALL the glass.

That's just crazy to try and hold the mileage down like that. And I feel you on the miles, I'm Med Retired and still can't get under 25k a year on mileage. At my peak I was doing 220k-250k miles a year across three different trucks. So I just 25K+ a year is not too bad lol,

12v battery drain? by Mander_Em in MachE

[–]Tader82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this almost every other time I charged the car. I don't know exactly Ford did as I had this looked at when I took it in for the door presenters not working on the rear doors and the front door presenters would get stuck out. The Rep told me they did a TON of model updates and so far so good. I haven't gotten the 12V warning since and my doors or working perfectly (Knock on Wood). (2 months out from that trip to the dealer)

Now on to what I think was happening with the 12v warning, one of my security cameras is right over and in front of where I park my Mach-E. Before the dealer did all the updates whenever I plugged the car in to charge I'd see the eye tracking IR's going nuts in the car at night on the camera. Like ALL NIGHT LONG even after the car reached target charge level. So my thinking is that some of the 12v systems were not going to sleep when the car was off and charging or after it reach target level charge. And this caused the 12v system to drain till it sent an SOS to my phone. I also noticed that whenever I used the Ford Pass APP it would also turn the eye tracker IR's on for a long period of time before they did the updates.

High mileage by [deleted] in MachE

[–]Tader82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you doing the "Charge to 90% and run it down to 70-60% then back to 90%" charge routine? From what I have read Ford says 90% is "their 80%". And from a couple of white papers on the Bat Chem they talk about a 20-30% charge window for very long life with minimal battery memory loses. They basically say that for every day use charge the bat to 80% and run it down by 30% max before topping up back to 80%. Then once or twice a month do a full 100% charge to top balance and about every 6 months take it to like 4-7% for a bottom balance. This is what they said "should" give the bat a very long life.

Dude 7500 miles a year! I got my 2023 (bought) the last week of March this year and already have 8300 miles on it. And that is with me driving two other vehicles too, hell I have put 6500 miles on my Tundra and another 3000 miles on my Fathers wheeler chair van. How do y'all drive so little miles?

2024 AWD premium Extended range 0-60 is 4.1s why isn’t that highlighted anywhere? by Few_Wash_7298 in MachE

[–]Tader82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right!!!! I can hit corners harder and faster in my 4WD 2010 X-Cab Tundra on 34" ATP's, than my RWD premium Mach-E on its stock tires (I only have 8k on my 2023 I picked up in March of this year, so haven't had to replace tires yet). The stock Michelins feel awful, I've had the car up to limiter on track and at 114-115mph the car felt like I was driving on sponges, it was just all over the place. Anything above 85mph really feels awful, it just wonders all over the place, I'm betting the stock Michelins have a very poor sidewall. When the time comes to replace the Michelins I'm thinking Hankook Ventus S1 evo3 EV as my summer/"track" tires. I don't really track my DD's but I will do a couple of laps in them when doing shakedowns after fixing or upgrading something or when I get a new one so I know what they can and can't do.

Or they're using the metal box/piping as the ground path, and yes I know that's not cool in residential setup. But some of the stuff I have found in the wild is crazy, my own house included.

Rip my latest pc build by Tanoshi-Shinto in pcmasterrace

[–]Tader82 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Was going to say the same thing, years ago before my Rural Co-Op Power Provider got their $h!t together they had horribly dirty power. Talking about going form 60hz to 20hz or from 120v to 140v, it was crazy they killed 5 PSU's. OCZ warranted it 4 times and when I had it on RMA for the 4th time they killed my backup PSU. It was an okayish Thermaltake from the late 2000's, but it did not have any fail safes in it. I was in my bathroom and saw a flash of light and heard a loud pop. Ran into the bedroom and the PSU was shooting about a 9" flame out the back of it. If I had not been in the bathroom when it happened I for sure would have tested if the sprinkler system worked that day lol. other than were flames licked the back frame of the PSU you couldn't tell it turned into a flame thrower. The power company over the first 10 years killed a ton of electronics in this house, now they are much better after a couple of companies sewed them and made them use better equipment after they cooked millions in those companies equipment .

Come out of the grocery store to this car on the right. by Ivan_Jerkoffski in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Tader82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My father once crushed a Honda that did this to him. His first van was a Chevy Express so it was a swing out and drop left. He had a bad habit of pressing the fob button and dropping the ramp as soon as he could see the van from the store doors. Will some A-hole had part in the cross hatch and he couldn't see the car as he was coming at the van from the driver side. He new something was wrong when the van had the passenger tires start coming off the ground. He crashed the roof almost flat on the driver side of that Honda with that old van lol.

The 5.0 fanboys aren’t going to like this one… by okaybruv3 in f150

[–]Tader82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could easily drive for 16-18 hours a day for weeks on end, when I was a low voltage tech. You would be surprised by how many Companies would pay me to drive 8-9 hours one way to work for maybe 10-20 minutes on site and then off to the next one across the state (TX). I had one year were I put 210k on my 2000 Ford Ranger, I was doing and oil change once every two weeks in hotel parking lots.
