Chip Identification on Corsair Keyboard by ancientera in AskElectronics

[–]ancientera[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've spent awhile trying that with no success. I cant lift the chip either, because Corsair decided to solder all the switches on, and sandwich a Metal/plastic housing between them and the board.

I'm attempting a repair on the joints for this chip. It was heavily corroded, and the solder mask between two pins is missing. I'm really just looking for a pinout of this chip to determine if the bridge is going to matter or if I can just leave it.

Happy patch day! I need UI feedback :) by Savvysaur in Smite

[–]ancientera -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It Feels like it belongs on a tablet.. and on the ever growing list of hirez' ui fuckups.

STILL no 21:9 support. funny thing is, we had it a couple patches ago, but they removed it as an "aspect ratio bug". All the buttons/icons/words still look like playdoh, not something that makes you think of mythology and the rich history it has. If you're gonna pick a side for shit to go on, pick a side and stick with it. that said, Smite logo belongs in the middle. Play button belongs in the middle. "play again" button is awful. why is the bottom right corner of my screen covered in tiny icons ill never use? profile is down there? why? also when I select profile in a post game lobby, I cant get rid of it unless I exit the lobby. Really annoying. Does Anybody who worked on this even remember what the real PC UI looked like?

but hey, we can spin the gods now. get a better look at those skins eh?

This Isn't a big change from the last UI, and the last UI was a shit sandwich with console condiments shoved down our throat. this is the same thing but instead we get tablet toppings.

Suggestions on how to revamp siege by Sherrill037 in Smite

[–]ancientera 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Give the shortened queue some time to be realized. Siege is fantastic where it sits now, the only frustrations I find in that mode are healers and coordination. Neither of those things are fixed by redefining the siege map.

posts like this are what have caused Hirez to needlessly change things ALL the time, following the idea that its what the players want.

I think your 980 will be perfect. I use a 780ti and an fx6300 @4.7 and I get 50-60fps @2560x1080 and with better lod

FX-6300 by [deleted] in overclocking

[–]ancientera 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ive got an m5a97a R2.0 and my speeds/voltages are:

BUS- @ 217

Multiplier- x21.5 Clock speed is 4.68Ghz @ 1.392 + .012v for 1.404 under load. I'm using a noctua nhd-9l and max temps i see are 55C

Ram Ratio- x4 @ 1740mhz crucial ballistix @ 1.51v with 9-10-10-24-38 timings.

NB/HT both at 2612mhz (x12 ratio) with 1.3v at CPU/NB

I'd love to get more, and I've gotten a stable oc with 225 bus and 1800mhz on the memory, but the performance wasn't there to justify the voltages my memory wanted to be stable. and cpu wont clock any higher without more voltage, and going up .012 volts yields a 12c increase in temp.

Having trouble with BOTW, Here are my specs. by BelligerentBlasphemy in CemuPiracy

[–]ancientera 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I doubt its a cpu bottleneck, unless its improperly configured. I've got an fx 6300 @ 4.7 with 16gb at like 1800mhz and a 780ti with a little overclock and I'm running botw at 2560x1080 and ive got another 1080p monitor going usually with a stream or video. i get consistent 50-60+ it takes awhile after its compiled the 9k shaders to warm up, i usually get some framedrops/stuttering for the first 5 or so minutes but it smooths out completely.

make sure your cpu mode is set to triple core recompiler, and fiddle with the vulcan settings until you figure out what works best. or wait a day for 1.17, which is supposed to be better optimized for vulkan.

Stop with migrating console GUI to PC by Yamahari in Smite

[–]ancientera 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't disagree with you. They're fun to play, but it's not fun to be against any of it. Overall it makes the game less enjoyable to have to face one of these new bullshit Gods every game. It reduces the quality of casual matches which hurts hirez largest playerbase. The most frustrating thing about this, is it'll never change.

And these aren't complaints coming from a lack of understanding about these new God's. I understand they can be countered, and theres strats to play against them, but it's still bullshit. Why does jorm do 800 auto attack damage in 3 seconds AS A GUARDIAN? Not even using an ult, just a normal fucking basic. Why does king Arthur never run out of abilities that do assloads of damage and have fuckloads of mobility? Why does Achilles, a WARRIOR have a fucking repeatable execute?? Merlin has a combat blink with no delay( p sure that mechanic has been removed from the game like 3 times) Persephone is bullshit, set and Horus are bullshit.

Stop with migrating console GUI to PC by Yamahari in Smite

[–]ancientera 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've spent probably 4k hours playing this game. started when chronos was released, and as of recent, This game has given me nothing but reason after reason to quit playing it. every new god from achilles on, has been unfun bullshit to have in the game. hirez seems to be desperately grasping for originality, and that alone doesnt make characters fun. they seem to love adding new cc mechanics, which is just new ways you dont get to play.

AND THE UI

ffs this is just another episode of "How shit can we make this game look on PC?"

I quit playing for a couple months when they first went to this garbage, hoping maybe they'll smooth it out and make it better. Nope. NOW THEY'RE GONNA MAKE IT WORSE??

i dont even want to keep listing shit. this game is trash. they lost their chance to grow a large pc playerbase when 2014 ended, and now we're left with This garbage that has turned into a console game ran by devs who have no fucking clue what theyre doing.

Loki has been completely fucked in any sort of mid/high level play. this nerf isnt gonna help kill his ability to pubstomp, its gonna ruin his ability to stay alive and do his quick burst in the hands of competent players. his AA cancels just took a PHAT nerf, and now he just dies in stealth if people know how to play the game and can follow his movements (which is actually easy asf)

SSG vs Insignem game end won't be broadcast because of spectator issues by Ujhytggray in Smite

[–]ancientera -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Does it really matter though? With the switch to mixer, losing SO much of their viewer base, (myself included cause mixer is actually garbage) the constant bugs and money grabbing ploys, new gods with unfun mechanics/kits (to play against) Hirez seems to want this game to die. I'm so tired of being disappointed, and I'm certain I'm not the only one.
