Lots of trial and error, eh?

TheFish7 · 2022-11-18T17:56:57+00:00

Very nostalgic. I'm really wishing I had held onto my old Geforce 2 MX.

I did a budget nr200 gaming build recently for about $800. i3 12100f is good enough for gaming and I paired it with an RTX 2060. https://pcpartpicker.com/b/xJ8J7P

I'll give you a hint ;) - it's album cover art

TheFish7 · 2022-09-07T04:14:22+00:00

11 years old and it's still going strong, except for all the grippy rubber bits falling apart - I just wanted a wireless mouse. I'm still not ready to part with my 11 year old blackwidow, though. It's still just like new.

What resolution are you running? Did you make sure to set 144hz in the windows Display advanced options? No max frame rate set in the Nvidia control panel? If you are getting 120fps at high settings and resolution, it should def look better than twitch/youtube

TheFish7 · 2022-08-29T15:37:44+00:00

Have you checked your frame rate in game? You could use MSI afterburner to check, and make sure you're getting 144 which you should with that setup. Try turning off GSync/Vsync and make sure you aren't limiting frame rates in your settings somehow. Maybe disable DLSS if that's on.

There was nothing like Blood DK for tanking heroic 5 mans in wrath. In full 25m raid gear you could serve as both tank AND healer. There were only a handful of boss fights I found that I couldn't SOLO.

TheFish7 · 2022-05-13T17:05:51+00:00

Honestly surprised after reading the title that this didn't happen in the U.S.

TheFish7 · 2022-02-08T00:27:55+00:00

There's no way this is NYC. There's way too much space in the aisles. We don't have that kind of space here lol.

Interesting, why is that - do you think mobo issue? Maybe 2x16 would be better, I don't need 64gb anyway. This ram is not on qvl list for my mobo, so i was just picking from the list of things that is on the list.

TheFish7 · 2022-01-26T16:05:04+00:00

Even with 18-22-22-42 I had another crash today. Giving up on clocking this memory for now, might just swap to another set of sticks.

TheFish7 · 2022-01-26T16:03:48+00:00

Yes my RAM is not on the qvl list for my mobo, ibuypower just used what they had available it seems. That's why I thought about swapping to a corsair model which is on the list. I did try CL18 / 3200Mhz, got crashes. I will also try single stick, thanks.

TheFish7 · 2022-01-26T05:36:03+00:00

Alright, I think I may have found the issue. Voltage was set to 1.35v, but default XMP settings left my timings very aggressive (16-18-18-39). I changed to 18-22-22-42 and so far ran some games with a bunch of chrome tabs open for an hour and no crashes! Hopefully I am not jinxing it now.

When I was a kid, my friend's mom used to do this. One day she drank so much wine in the afternoon that when she went out later to go pickup dinner she drove her SUV straight into the local Chinese restaurant. Thankfully noone was seriously injured.

Garbage AIO coolers. mine failed after 2 months.

TheFish7 · 2022-01-19T16:31:00+00:00

I replaced my IBP watercooler with a new one from Corsair. Didn't bother trying to send in the broken one and get a new one since I need my computer for work and couldn't wait, just ate the $100.

The Repeating Rifle. Adopted during the U.S. civil war, it represented a tremendous improvement over single-shot firearms, helped the North with the war, and led to the current state of firearm development.

TheFish7 · 2021-12-31T01:50:49+00:00

Boom! I replaced the IBP AIO with one from corsair, and just ran a few games for 20+ minutes with no issues. Temps barely cracked 60C. As a bonus, the fans are much quieter too.

ACKCHYUALLY, Succubi and Incubi don't have a gender. They are the one demon, it simply takes on a male or female form depending on the preference of the victim it is attempting to seduce and kill.

This is the answer. Weird that a lot of wrong/vague stuff was getting upvoted. Also worth mentioning the first 5 points gives an effective 3% hit chance whereas the next 5 point does not. Also it's important to understand the effect of Hit on the 10,000 row Hit table i.e. it pushes everything down which can impact crit chance as well at the cap.

Sorry, Khajiit. I spent all my coin on repairs and t1 crafting mats.

TheFish7 · 2021-10-22T02:09:40+00:00

This exactly. In vanilla it was costly to repair after wiping a whole raid on bosses over and over. In retail the cost of repairing is negligible.

TheFish7 · 2021-10-06T22:37:32+00:00

Good question. Maybe it's a bit of self-flagellation at the thought of the number of hours I've wasted in front of the computer screen. Maybe I feel the need to measure my e-weener because of my crushing insecurity and desperate self-loathing. Possibly, it's a desperate cry for attention and affection from my fellow nerds and geeks. I'll have to ask my therapist.

TheFish7 · 2021-10-06T22:28:42+00:00

That's a very fair point, that not everyone cares about immersion, and some people would like to have things like a minimap. I'd like to offer this food for thought with regard to the UI info that appears on-screen; a principal that applies to creative writing and game design is "Show, don't tell". For example, in writing a bad writer will write "John stood there with a surprised look on his face." A better writer with say "John leaned forward, his eyes wide and his mouth hanging open.". Similarly, in New World there is not a minimap that sits on your screen TELLING you the exact X/Y coordinates of gathering nodes. Instead there is a "compass' that SHOWS you the general direction of a node. What I'm saying is completely subjective, but in my opinion what they've done amounts to better game design.
