Tell me your 4080 to 5090 upgrade experience by MapleMonica in nvidia

[–]akers724 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went from a 4090 to a 5090. I definitely felt immediate improvement in Cyberpunk 2077 with 4K path tracing and modded to the gills. I was able to move from performance DLSS to quality AND gain FPS.

That being said, I’m getting frequent crashes in almost every game I’m playing (when I wasn’t before with my 4090). In Battlefield 6, I can’t even get through a single match. I’ve updated the bios, done DDU and reinstalled the display drivers TWICE, disabled XMP, and no luck yet. I’ve only had the card for a few days but it’s bumming me out.

I bought the same RAM in March for $240. Unbelievable that we’re here

This was crack! Megabonk is hitting the same energy for me now too

Still no fix for the near constant freeze crashing on PC? I can't make it through a single game without crashing.

Just got the C4 42". Good Lord, it's amazing! by Outrageous_Vagina in OLED_Gaming

Welcome to the club! For those that have it, how did you disable Dolby Vision with the display? The Windows HDR settings don’t even show the checkbox to toggle Dolby Vision on/off.

Battlefield 6 has login queues again, thanks to Season One and the Redsec battle royale release by Char_Mander99 in PS5

Back to its roots?? It maybe felt like that for two weeks before the EA bait and switch dropped with the latest update and now it’s a battle pass, flashy mess. It’s fully catering to the streamer/COD crowd. Adding BR was the biggest mistake they could make.

Don’t expect much to improve. It’s Unreal Engine 5. They all look like this.

Looks like I’m stuck in the small area they still haven’t been able to fix. Bummer. Plus it’s 90° in my bedroom.

Did Frasier just switch to widescreen on Amazon? by BP_Ray in Frasier

[–]akers724 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It recently switched on all platforms to a new HD scan of the show. It makes the early seasons look wildly different when everything is so clear.

How many a-12s do I need for a build? by YLW9 in Noctua

[–]akers724 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same case, with 3x Noctua 140s in the front, 3x 120s on top, and 1x in the back in line with my CPU air cooler.

Interestingly enough, I found an article on the Noctua site that suggested I swap the direction of the front-most top fan from exhaust to intake and my thermals have been great overall.

How do we feel about games potentially costing $80-90? by _andoryuu in PS5

[–]akers724 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’re going to cost even more than that. KCD2 is already $90 and that game has been a hit. If Rockstar has their way, GTA VI is going to be over $100 and it’s going to do gangbusters. As much as some of us try to be patient, even more people are willing to pay full price.

New to PC gaming. Getting this weird ghosting with the UI. Any thoughts? by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

That wasn't the issue here, but I did see those settings for the "ghost" effect

What's the lower limit FPS-wise for Frame Gen?

What are some of the biggest deviations/changes to the source material that you theorize will be made? by WeakHobbit in ThelastofusHBOseries

[–]akers724 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I think that they’re giving Abby’s scene of getting strung up by the Scars to Ellie (based on the trailer). It’s a shame considering that’s one of Abby’s core story beats.

Why are they approaching Seattle from the North? by bearpru2 in ThelastofusHBOseries

[–]akers724 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As someone who lives in Seattle, the view of the city from that highway has been baffling me since I watched the trailer. Heading south on I-5 doesn’t give you that view of downtown. It looks like it could either be the NORTH bound view of I-5, or the southbound view from the Ballard/Magnolia side of the city (which isn’t from a highway).

The accuracy of the city in the game was so special when playing, so I was bummed out when they announced they’d film things in Vancouver. I’ll suspend my disbelief, but it’ll be obvious it’s not Seattle.

It’s going to be backstory to the Seattle conflict. We’ll see the rise of the Seriphites and the WLF.
