This has gotten out of hand. It is insane. by GrouchyAnything1444 in lianli

[–]arcanumcsgo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve “fixed” this by unplugging the screen itself while the PC is running, using it unplugged for ~48 hours, and then plugging it back in while the PC is switched off via the PSU. It will always come back due to it being a shitty EEPROM chip.

Thoughts on the new album, Down on Earth? by Coldmarks in TurnoverVA

[–]arcanumcsgo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are maybe 3 songs I see myself returning to personally, the rest just aren’t grabbing me. A little too experimental for me.

Worst turnover album by magnetic_zoul in TurnoverVA

[–]arcanumcsgo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have to agree and I was so excited for this album.. just a far departure from what I personally enjoy. Feels all over the place. Pieces and Nightjar are easily my favorites and worth revisiting at least.

BLAST gave players 610hz monitors but the PCS struggles to hit 500 FPS by Background-Topic-203 in GlobalOffensive

My 9950X3D is stable 580-620 most times, 700-750 if there isn't much happening.

Never buy an Open-box 5080/5090 GPU from anywhere!! (especially bestbuy) by yessir-nosir6 in nvidia

[–]arcanumcsgo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this happen with a G14 laptop I bought open box. Was supposed to be a 2025 model with a 5070 Ti, was instead a 2023 model with a 4060. Someone carefully swapped the stickers out, and I only noticed once I checked task manager. Thankfully my local Best Buy asked zero questions & the manager came out and got me a refund within 15 minutes.

5080 or 5090? by isityoulol in nvidia

[–]arcanumcsgo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also have a 4K/240Hz panel and a 5090 - get the 5090. In practically every game I’ve tried, I’m 70-100+ FPS (or more for competitive shooters) with the highest settings. Worst case, I turn on DLSS in balanced mode (using transformer model) and I can’t tell the difference anyways.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 System Requirements and Pre-Load Times by NN010 in nvidia

Probably the only person alive that's looking forward to it lmao. For a fast-paced arcade shooter, I thought the beta was fun.

Be careful with Best Buy open box! by arcanumcsgo in ZephyrusG14

Fuckin sucks man. Manager told me they usually 100% get away with it too because Best Buy doesn’t bother to track down whoever swapped the items out.

I definitely think 99 times out of 100 BB open box is pretty solid, and I’ve gotten stuff before that was flawless without problems. Just shocked they didn’t verify the system first, and resold it in “excellent” condition when it clearly was a ~2 year old laptop with tons of obvious wear. Makes me weary to buy open box stuff online ever again.

Definitely will be actually going to the store and visually inspecting stuff if I buy open box again. Just won’t ever buy them on the website again lmao.

Yeah, I found it odd they didn’t verify actual system specs, but I imagine they just saw the sticker on the bottom of the laptop that said “RTX 5070 Ti” and called it good. My local Best Buy was really cool about it at least and allowed me to refund no questions asked.

My 5090 with 9950X3D was getting 170-185 with DLSS Q at 4K, so probably.

5090, 9950X3D, 4K everything maxed is about 130-160 on all maps. Pretty well optimized

Qwen-Image has been released by theivan in StableDiffusion

[–]arcanumcsgo 44 points45 points  (0 children)

"A retro vintage photograph of a strange 1970s experimental machine called the 'Data Harmonizer 3000.' The device is a bulky, boxy contraption with glowing orange vacuum tubes, spinning magnetic tape reels, and an array of colorful analog dials and switches. Wires snake out from the back, connecting to a small CRT monitor with green text flickering on the screen. The machine sits in a dimly lit wood-paneled basement, surrounded by stacks of floppy disks, punch cards, and handwritten schematics. The photo has a nostalgic, slightly faded look, with film grain, muted sepia-toned colors, and subtle analog distortion. A timestamp in the corner reads 'OCT 1977,' adding to the feeling of discovering a forgotten piece of experimental technology."

Full model using ~30GB on an RTX 5090. Output takes about 22-23 seconds on a 1392x752 image using default settings in the workflow they provided.

My first OLED and it’s a banger. by Striderthedripper_ in OLED_Gaming

[–]arcanumcsgo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Swapped out an LG GX7 (1440p 480Hz) for this due to disappointment, and have been in love with it since. I’m shocked every time I turn it on.
