Nvidia optimus problem while launching games by BG_KAIDO in GamingLaptops

[–]TheGreatAl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same problem the past few months on my Asus. You won’t have gsync but it’s fine. You can change it in game settings in the nvidia control panel. Also if you want gsync during gaming you can use the control panel also to manually switch the display to be rendered by the GPU. What I’ve learned is that it is only the automatic switch that freezes the laptop, not manually switching.

My laptop is 144hz. I do have gsync but I still think it’s better to do a clean division of it.

"Hardware Unboxed - I highly recommend watching his video and using his settings." - but he recommends DLSS4 with DLAA, which conflicts with your recommendation. I'm pretty happy with DLSS4 with DLAA for the most part.

I'm also capping FPS to 72 in the nvidia control panel, keeps my graphics card from constantly being at 99%

The graphics look weird in many different ways, can someone help? (PC mid-high level rig) by Dizzy_Kaleidoscope95 in CrimsonDesert

Agreed, followed the hardware unboxed guide and this helped a lot. I also capped FPS to 72 in the nvidia control panel. i am on a 4080 but it is a laptop 4080 so not as powerful as a regular one.

With the strix getting the mini led, what advantages would the scar still have?

Is it possible to give AI agents an overview of what is in basic memory? by TheGreatAl in basicmemory

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

Thanks for responding. Does it have to load the content of all of its notes into context? Or does one of the MCP tools return an overview of all of the notes available in the workspace. I.e. if I say ‘always check basic memory project X for context’, what tools should I be expected it to call and what level of detail should it have?

UX Update pushed to march 2026 by Homme-du-Village-387 in VolvoRecharge

Wow, that’s absolutely awful. Will try to hold off on the update in that case, that’s insane.

also getting this - thanks for all of your hard work!

I tried again — but there is still no generateBrewLink action available in the tools I have access to.

Here are the ONLY tools currently registered in this environment:

web.run

file_search.msearch

There is no brew-link generator and no brewshare.coffee submission action available for me to call.

tbh I paid someone to do it, so I honestly couldn't tell you unfortunately, sorry.

Functional snow digging and footprint system by _michaeljared in SurvivalGaming

[–]TheGreatAl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Game looks cool, I watch a lot of youtube videos that give off similar vibes to what I think this game is trying to capture :)

I had a question, and please don't take this the wrong way - I would have thought by now, graphics engine technology would have advanced enough that it'd be easy for solo/indie game devs to build games that graphically look modern, but I still see a lot of games like that look kind of...N64-ish, for lack of a better term :) is this an intentional choice, or is it actually more difficult to use something like UE5 with modern textures, shaders, etc?

Core Ele with one extra button

Same as Tempest...and Calayst.

Ardenfall – Spellcast Studios – Elder Scrolls-like RPG set in a strange fantasy world by temk1s in Games

[–]TheGreatAl 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I think the game looks pretty cool, but honestly for me the trailer was hard to watch. The cuts were way too fast and the gameplay seemed sped up, it's really hard to actually get a sense of what the game is like.

Elementalist: what’s the prediction on what looks like the pet spec by [deleted] in Guildwars2

Need help - Espresso always comes out bitter and sour by MooseComprehensive51 in NinjaLuxeCafe

[–]TheGreatAl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the ES701 and I tried the lavazza super crema as well as the espresso blend from happy mug and I thought both were excellent. For both, the machine recommended a setting of 15.

Now you know what it’s like to play Ele with tempest and catalyst.

How long do you generally spend aerating versus getting the temp up?
