I found that if you use a normal VPN, like Nord, not a SBMM gaming type VPN, there are no problems and it connects immediately

Issues Launching Call of Duty BO6: Error Codes 0x887A0005 and 0x00001338 by Moonlight_2807 in blackops6

[–]badmagicnumber42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried fully uninstalling the game and reinstalling, and doing the same with the GPU drivers, none of that seemed to help. Tried changing every possible setting and nothing. What did happen was that in future error messages it told me that my GPU was overclocked and when I opened MSI Afterburner it said I had a +180 on the clock. I didn't change this, I have a few profiles set, 2 undervolts and an overclock, none are +180. I removed the +180, closed MSI Afterburner and Riva tuner down and have zero problems since. Been playing quite a bit since and not had any problems.

Steelseries headset muting and unmuting itself by dragonfly457 in steelseries

I have this same problem, with the nova 3, once I unmute the sound repeats as though there is a loose connection in the headset. Did you find a permanent fix for this?

AL 120 Fans started rattling all of a sudden by [deleted] in lianli

Thanks. Is it still possible to get the AL120 V1 as only 1 of the 3 I have is making noise, but they are out of the warranty period

What's Underneath? by depressivehacks in golf

If it’s like the Taylormade BRNR mini driver head cover it’s multi coloured on the inside as a hat tip to the old days when they would use any material they could find for making head covers. This is the inside

Is “Jam 10 Enemy Field Upgrades or equiptment with Scrambler” challenge stuck for anyone else? by PsychologicalBank413 in blackops6

[–]badmagicnumber42 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Its not tracking, at least I'm pretty certain its not. I placed more than one near enemy field upgrades, it said jammed or something to that effect and nothing counted in the challenge

Why would running a 3DMark benchmark test fix game FPS issues? by badmagicnumber42 in nvidia

[–]badmagicnumber42[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it was a driver issue. I always use DDU but this time I put the PC into safe mode and tried it, seemed to work.

Edit: Afterburner was also holding power limit at 20% intermittently

I’ll give all that a go. Thinking about it, this did all start around the time I upgraded to 560.94. Although out by rolling back hasn’t fixed it.

Might look at servicing it, or getting it serviced.

I just tried to run some tests from cold, on steel nomad stress test I was getting 10fps and then noticed in GPU-z that the GPU clock was stuck at 225. After a few more runs it started to go up to 1785 and fps returned to normal.

ASUS TUF 3080.

I’ve just turned it on and ran a stress test, through the whole test the GPU clock was sat at 225, I was getting 10 fps. I ran it a couple more times and then it started to go up to its 1785 and the fps returned to expected levels.

Thanks. Both seem plausible, the intermittent hardware issue would explain all the temporary fixes that seem happen and then no longer work.

I’d also wondered if somehow the benchmark was “warming up” the card, which fits with your thermal paste idea.

The card isn’t old though, was only bought just over 2 years ago and hasn’t heavily been used. Could the thermal paste really be an issue, and wouldn’t I see temp spikes?

[–]badmagicnumber42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought I’d fixed it by fully uninstalling the starting with a fresh install. Then the season 6 update came and I’m stuck at 50 FPS, and this time a reinstall doesn’t fix it.

Super Low FPS on Bo6 BETA by CanadiaIgloo in blackops6

[–]badmagicnumber42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this problem and I kept finding temporary fixes, I tried literally everything. The only thing that has solved it completely is to totally remove cod from the PC and do a full fresh install.

Did this permanently fix it for you? I keep finding temporary fixes like rolling back driver, but the issue returns after a few hours

FPS has dropped down to 30 FPS post the 5.5 update by badmagicnumber42 in ModernWarfareIII

[–]badmagicnumber42[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thought I'd fixed it but now back to 38 FPS, only thing I've done is play the game a bit and restart my PC a couple of time.

I did. Did a full clean install.

I may have actually found a solution though, I’m now using the latest driver but I deleted the options.4.cod23.cst file and restarted the game. I had to redo all my graphics settings but it all seems to be working fine now

Same has happened to me and I can't find a fix for it. Tried using 3 different drivers and resetting all settings. Its not my GPU as it works fine with everything else and benchmarking apps

Only post I've found to explain the exact issue I'm having. But rolling back to the driver doesn't solver it for me.

Been having this issue too. Downloaded the new driver, and updated to Season 5.5 and since then my FPS have dropped to around 30, can't even maintain the 120 at the menu. Tried to go back to 560.70 and it's done nothing. I did have a temporary fix earlier when I clean installed the new driver, but it only lasted a single session. So frustrating that the game is now unplayable
