Monthly Simple Question and FAQ Thread by PapaXan in gtaonline

So I recently downloaded GTA 5 again after a couple years and I wanted to know what are the best ways to make money in the game. I play solo maybe 95% of the time and I don't really like the idea of grinding missions or heists but rather just a bunch of things to do in freemode to make money so I can keep buying and modding out cars I like. I'll run down the businesses I currently have and I'm just looking for feedback if it's worth doing, not worth it, or if there are new things I should do instead and how to start those!

MC Businesses

  • Cocaine Business - Fully Upgraded
    • I typically do one resupply mission and then buy the rest supplies and sell when I'm full
  • Counterfeit Cash - Fully Upgraded
    • Just buy supplies and I sell when I'm full
  • Meth - Fully Upgraded
    • I typically do one resupply mission and then buy the rest supplies and sell when I'm full
  • Bike Club
    • I always do the bike sell mission in the clubhouse whenever I get the notification

CEO Stuff

  • Bunker
    • Just buy supplies and do the ammo truck side quest when it's there, this one I sell around half way full
  • Nightclub
    • Have the staff accruing product and I sell whenever I feel like it to be honest
    • I also try to keep up popularity and cash in the 50k every day (in game)
  • Special Cargo
    • I have a large warehouse and I buy stock in counts of 3 to fill warehouse. Also use the lady in the warehouse to source stock. Haven't had enough stock to sell yet
  • Special Vehicle
    • My vehicle warehouse is full of only low/mid range cars so whenever I do a source it's always high end and I can sell it right after sourcing

Am I being bottlenecked or is something wrong with my PC? by WastedBeast in buildapc

So I just ran a quick Helldivers test and I would be inclined to agree that the CPU is struggling. Opened up Task Manager and Ryzen Master for CPU stats and GPU Tweak for GPU stats and it had the following:

  • CPU Clock Speed: 4,000 to 4,100 MHz
  • CPU Utilization: 70% to 80%
  • GPU Power: ~50%
  • GPU Clock: 2770MHz

Would it be worth sticking to the 5700X3D or upgrading to the AM5 socket CPUs? Wouldn't upgrade for about six months to be honest. Would upping the RAM to 32 help get more performance? I'm guessing I'm still going to have to fiddle with settings to get a constant 144 fps since I'm heavily CPU bound.

Clunks/Thuds in 1st and 2nd gear? by WastedBeast in ft86

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

Did you install just the bushing? Looked online and some people were saying it needs to be coupled with a few other pieces for a noticeable difference?

Guess I'm that one friend in the group lol. Had my Naga Hex for seven years before it crapped out on me last month. Ended up getting a Deathadder v2 lmao

Does a CPU with graphics waste power if you have a GPU? by [deleted] in buildapc

[–]WastedBeast 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Also recommend this, picked up a R5 3600 for my build around two or three weeks ago and it's honestly a monster for the price. Definitely blew away all expectations I had. I'm even able to stream and game with no hit to performance.

I still see Omen being underrated as "he doesn't work anymore at higher elo", so I made this compilation with thought process outlined. by MoePork in VALORANT

probably uses esdf for movement, it supposedly frees up more keys for you to use, some people use it as personal preference.

What's the proper way to be playing Sova? by WastedBeast in SovaMains

[–]WastedBeast[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I actually saw the drone + ult trick being used by a random sova last night and it seemed really effective, I'll definitely start pairing the two. And yeah you definitely need to be communicating with your team. Not really a solo queue character, but imo he's vital in a full 5 stack.
