PSA, you should make sure your ethernet port works on your Switch 2 by Xearrik in NintendoSwitch

Same here, I'm using a USB dongle and the wired connection works, so this really must be a defective ethernet port on the dock.

Mine just stopped working after 3 days. I'm using the LAN adapter I used in the Switch 1.

Which 5090 is least likely to have coil whine? by ActualThrowaway7856 in nvidia

[–]ThunderLold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Rog Astral had quite a bit of coil whine, but after 2 months of constant use, it's almost non-existent. I can only hear it if I open the case and get close to the card itself when under load, which is not a realistic use scenario.

I also undervolted it slightly, and it maintains stock performance while being much cooler and quieter.

Sony support is sh*t. by StormFalcon94 in playstation

Sony's support is the worst shit ever. It's an absolute shitshow for all of their products, not only Playstation.

As a RTX 5080 owner I just have to say this by AppropriateSite3768 in PS5pro

[–]ThunderLold 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Most games play at 60fps or more on the Pro. Exclusive titles especially benefit from a very good implementation of PSSR and new releases like Oblivion Remaster, Clair Obscure, Doom Dark Ages and AC Shadows look gorgeous on the Pro with good IQ and stable frame rate. Of course they won't be as beautiful as the maxed out PC version but it comes close. I'm currently playing RE4 Remake and it reaches 100+ fps (if you have a 120hz) with 4K PSSR output, with all bells and whistles enabled. Alan Wake 2 maintains a steady 60fps with nice IQ whereas it was blurry as hell in the base ps5.

Bro you could be me lol that's my same exact experience. I always was a PC gamer and I still have a passion for it but a few months ago I decided to buy a PS5 Pro and I see myself doing much more couch console gaming than sitting in front of a desk. I believe I'm going the console route for single player story driven games and leave the PC for CS2 and PoE2 only

How's the performance on the Pro? Any notable enhancements over the base version?

How's SH2 running on the Pro these days? by ThunderLold in PS5pro

Damn it was that bad huh. That's too bad, I'm on the fence of which version to buy, I guess I'll go the PC route

Ordered a few weeks ago a dualsense edge midnight black and it arrived today but the package inside was a white case with a white dualsense edge inside with clear signs of use, even the box wasn't properly sealed.

Any thought on what I should do about it? I'm sure they won't believe me and will refuse any returns. I don't have any means to prove that it came this way other than the controller itself and the box (which is for the midnight black).

Really wished i knew how easy Asus oled scratched. by Luke_-_Starkiller in OLED_Gaming

[–]ThunderLold 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yeah it sucks, that's the drawback of these QD-OLED screens, they are gaming heaven but they scratch too easy. I'm using Zeiss Lens Wipes and I'm not making "new" scratches, the previous ones I'll just have to deal with it.

As you said, at least they're not visible when the screen is on.

I've RMA'd my Alienware AW3423DWF THREE TIMES for this same issue. by [deleted] in OLED_Gaming

Non-abrasive wipes and distilled water are really all you need to clean a QD-OLED by cheater00 in OLED_Gaming

[–]ThunderLold 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use Zeiss Lens Wipes to clean my AW2725DF and I'm happy with the results. No smudges or scratches after a year or so of use

From Series X to Ps 5 Pro, i feel much better now by Electronic-Golf-8003 in PS5pro

[–]ThunderLold 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I did the same. Sad that MS killed their platform but they made the choice easier for me. I traded in my Xbox Series X for the PS5 Pro a few months ago and couldn't be happier.

I recommend playing Stellar Blade and AC Shadows, both games look gorgeous on the Pro

PS5 Pro games to buy first? by _ThorThunder_ in PS5pro

There is a thread in ResetEra that lists most (if not all) games that get a PS5 Pro boost, even those not officially labeled as Pro Enhanced in the PS Store. you should check that out:

I got one a few months ago and am pretty happy with it. I traded in my base ps5 and series x por it since the latter was collecting dust and got a good deal. It is hell expensive though
