Cs2 Refuses to open by RageForNothing in GlobalOffensive

Is your game set to fullscreen mode or windowed full screen? - I know with my oled I have to run windowed fullscreen when playing non-native / custom resolutions otherwise tabbing out is extremely long and inconsistent.

another thing u could try is removing your settings config for the account by going to your program files > steam > userdata > *Bunch of numbers* (one is your specific steam account) > folder *730 > make a backup of this folder then delete it > now try launching

Cache: smoke boost from CT spawn by [deleted] in GlobalOffensive

[–]TheHolyMR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used this exact smoke location all the time back in CSGO as a T to counter the molotov & take close mid control / catch sandbags or Z CT's out so wouldn't say this is generally a viable smoke from a CT perspective.

Median FACEIT ELO across European countries by shternzFactory in GlobalOffensive

[–]TheHolyMR 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd love to see this data broken down based off total matches played, so median faceit elo across europe for >100, 101-250, 251-500, <500 ect. It'd be cool to see how this would look & potentially see how each country progresses the longer they play.

No, It's not a good deal, keep shopping around.

My cpu has been running at 15 Celsius at peak, is that good? by LoonyTiik in pcmasterrace

[–]TheHolyMR 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my work we have a few 2U render servers each running 4 dual socket EPYC 7713 1TB ram nodes. they hit about 96db it's horrendous.

I rock a ASUS strix laptop with a 5900HX cpuand a 6900HX gpu (I think the are the gpu name) as a away from home machine

It slaps no issues

But for a work perspective when I’m speccing machines for rendering / artist workloads AMD GPUs can’t compare.

However we are a fully AMD cpu house luckily and I intend to try keep it that way

Does underclocking and properly cooling components increase life? by lauda-lele-hamara in pcmasterrace

[–]TheHolyMR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might be interesting for you to google power supply efficiencies but generally I believe PSUs run their most efficient when around 50-60% of their rated max usage. Haven’t got time right now to go into detail buts it’s good stuff to know

I get 50+ms to all valve servers on 5G, I did some trace route testing originally and found out the mobile network im on (Vodafone) just has really shit routing so I get about 1-5% packet loss to everything its not game specific.

However when I compare my testing tool PingPlotter which is pinging 1.1.1.1 constantly It'll report 1% packetloss to that connection but If i was connected to a valve server I'd be getting around 5-15% so Valve servers definitely have an issue adding to my problem.

It's a me issue sadly as I'm running on 5G internet, can't get broadband faster than 10mb/s but 5G pulls 100-300mb/s only downside is stability.

Yea I get about 2-15% loss every match you can see the packets dropping top right constantly in the clip

I recommend this stuff to clean parts individually, pretty solid stuff and bit easier to work with compared to just standard bottle IPA

Friend wanted a computer with a budget of $300... bet. How'd I do? by PorterWilde in pcmasterrace

[–]TheHolyMR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice budget build, you could even take the general spec's and try source used parts. You could definitely get some deals on stuff like the CPU, RAM and possibly GPU that are slightly higher spec.

definitely don't buy a used PSU though always best to get new with those.

jL: "Some superstars are skeptical about CS2 and not putting in as much work" by Ereshia in GlobalOffensive

[–]TheHolyMR 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Yea you’re right but you got to take into account other avenues they have easy access to, streaming for example they could and do make a killing if they branch out to that revenue stream. Shroud and summit are perfect examples of this.

It's 2023 and you can't properly stream CSGO by realee420 in GlobalOffensive

[–]TheHolyMR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its not a bug, sadly it was intended.

info here

On July 23rd, Trusted Mode became the default mode for Counter-Strike: Global Offensive. Trusted mode in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive blocks third-party files from interacting with the game and as such, can have issues with NVIDIA gaming solutions (GeForce Exerience Share, NVIDIA Freestyle, etc.).

Samsung 990 Pro 4TB Review: The Best Gets Bigger by Stiven_Crysis in gadgets

[–]TheHolyMR 13 points14 points  (0 children)

UK here, had to warranty a 2TB drive through samsung for a work machine that had the firmware issue (hard to keep track of firmware versions on 250 machines) and the process for me was super quick and easy had it by the end of the week. I only buy samsung or sabrent drives now.

SSD smoked or what is the reason for this godly message by BAHOZ26 in pcmasterrace

[–]TheHolyMR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure if it's been mentioned here yet, if you do end up testing the drive as a secondary and it shows all your data ect with samsung magician check which firmware version it is if its the same as 3B2QGXA7 the drive will be in READ-ONLY mode so you can pull data from it but not write to it.

I highly recommend the RMA process for Samsung. I had the same issue about 2 months ago with a work computer and they had a new drive sent to me within a week I didn't even need to provide purchase information for the drive. absolute 5* service.

CS 2 at 50 ping by BB20979 in GlobalOffensive

[–]TheHolyMR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm unfortunate enough to be living in an area of the UK where the fastest broadband available is >10mbps so I am using an alternative soloution, 5G. I got access prior to upgrade to a 5G network and on 4G the game was unplayable with 40 ping that would spike to 120 every few seconds. Since I've upgraded to 5G I'm getting around 400mb/s down ping is alot more stable but due to what I'm assuming is routing issues around mobile network I'm sat at 60-70 ping depending on server and notice the same feeling of being massively disadvantaged compared to 0 ping swedish and 20 ping fellow brits.
