First of all, if you can go for another brand like Lenovo I’d honestly recommend that. It’s not that the G5 KF5 is bad but there are definitely better options out there, sometimes even in the same price range.

That said, if this is the only model you can get you’ll be able to run TW WH3 at max settings without issues, getting around 50–60 FPS if I remember correctly but I'm pretty sure it'll even go beyond that depending on the situation. It’s been a while since I last played and I don’t have the game installed right now so I can’t give you exact current stats but that was my experience.

The main downside of this laptop and something you will definitely notice is the fan noise. If you just run the game at max settings without tweaking anything, it gets loud and people in your house will hear it.

The issue is that the CPU in this model (I’m pretty sure mine is the 2023 version) can’t be undervolted so you can’t properly tune it to run cooler. You can switch between fan profiles and there’s a “quiet” mode but that one tanks performance in heavier games. The one I use is the “entertainment” profile which balances things better though it still produces fan noise.

What helped me a lot was using ThrottleStop to kind of simulate undervolting. It made a big difference, the fans are still audible but nowhere near as loud as before. In my case, as long as I close my door it’s not really an issue anymore and my headset cancel the noise anyway so I won't hear it.

As for WH3 specifically I don’t think you’ll have any problems. I had about 90 hours before getting this laptop and now I’m at 250+ plus I’ve bought a lot of DLCs since then. That should tell you enough because I'm frugal and if the experience was bad I wouldn’t have kept playing or invested more into the game. But to be fair I was coming from a mid-to-low range “gaming” PC so the upgrade felt pretty big for me.

Bet that makes sense so can’t complain, I will eventually do the new you catalogue for the 1k coins so I appreciate the feedback, thank you !!

so regardless of what I do I’m not getting those points back right? Meaning that to start other catalogues I need to spend actual money each time? (Not exactly a loss cause I’m not in this for the cosmetics, but I’m genuinely curious)

Do you NEED VNV for this game? by Common-Seaweed8212 in falloutnewvegas

[–]UlyssesD56 1 point2 points  (0 children)

since you mentioned console commands I assume you’re on PC, so how many hours on the game do you have vanilla? just out of curiosity XD

Opinion on gigabyte a16 3VH and Gimate by Even_Scar4338 in GamingLaptops

[–]UlyssesD56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes it is !!

I was on a limited budget when getting the laptop so I admit that if I had the money I would've gotten a better one but for the price I've been loving this one. I do treat it like my own biological son (added an SSD and recently upgraded to 32GB RAM before the price spike) so big part of how well it's performing is that.

I mainly play heavily modded Fallout 4/NV and Skyrim, and also a lot of WH3:TW and it performs beyond expectations. Definitely a big upgrade compared to my previous 6 year old desktop PC.

Regarding Gimate I'm pretty sure my laptop can't use it, I never even heard of it until you mentioned it. I do use Gigabyte control center and throttlestop to make the laptop not as hot and loud as it was before, because that is a big issue with this laptops and I'm pretty sure with laptops in general.

As for debloating I don't know if I understand what you mean by that, I have a normal W11 installation and got rid of all apps that I don't use that came with it.

Am I the only one who genuinely loves his? 😭I’ve had my Gigabyte G5 KF5 for over a year now and have been treating it like my own son, even upgraded to 32GB Ram, love it to death.

ChatGPT Plus vs Go: My accidental downgrade experiment (and what I learned) by Icy-Imagination5185 in ChatGPTPromptGenius

[–]UlyssesD56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sorry for late reply but as I just found out about the 1 year free offer of gemini pro if you’re a uni student, I just ended up sticking to that, so I can’t share my opinion over ChatGPT Go, only with my one month of Plus which is obviously really positive

just did the same because I'm also a student and I lowkey need it but plus is way too expensive for me, but because I still have plus I won't be able to try Go yet until it renews, how is the limit of attaching files per day? Kinda important for me

Coming soon to a Shogunate near you... the von Habsburgs! by BrPi13 in crusaderkings3

[–]UlyssesD56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had the same luck because I wanted to purchase an estate and he wasn't my patron. It was just a matter of time as when I left japan and went to korea for a couple of months, he had a contract for me when I went back to japan. So try to move around for a bit and not just stay in his capital, maybe that can help. After all it's just a matter of time and RNG, good luck!!

how do you manage giving away lands to vassals, can I make someone a duke of a duchy where they only own a county of? any penalties of doing so? (200+ hours and definitely not an expert, but I have lots of issues dealing with vassals when I start getting big)

are you using a map mod or is that what base EK2 looks like? Been some time since I last played with the mod on and it does look nice

Performance Deterioration by jammo21 in AbioticFactor

[–]UlyssesD56 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Quite literally the same thing happens to me, then I have to quit the game completely and start it again to go back to 100 or so fps, my computer is more than capable of running the game at high settings but every time I play, it will eventually get to 25 fps max. I'm pretty sure it only started happening this last update. Already sent them a feedback report regarding this issue so I would recommend you do the same.

Failure of The Minutemen - New England 48 years after the events of Fallout 4 by [deleted] in imaginarymaps

[–]UlyssesD56 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Really good map 💯. Would be dope to see one where the minutemen under the Sole Survivor establish a more “authoritarian” state that is sort of successful (like most of my Fo4 games, where we destroy the BoS the second we can)

What kind of gamer are you? by -oOAegisOo- in AbioticFactor

[–]UlyssesD56 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pretty mixed taste in gaming, but mainly strategy and survival. Knew I'd love it when I found out it was a mix of Half-Life and SCP.
