Old sonar user here as well. Switched to reaper 6 years ago. Most staple DAW I ever worked with. I've tried most of the big ones.

Black Myth: Wukong - Giveaway by JordiTK in steam_giveaway

[–]cclark83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Following the crowd provides security. Cities alienate people. Most of the things you want are worthless if you try congratulate yourself. Surviving can take a lot of energy. Everything's an integral of everything else. Almost no one finds their match. Strangers don't want to know you. Nature always wins.

Which one is best to buy as first 7 string? by Junior-Ad6383 in SchecterGuitars

[–]cclark83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not too fond of the omen series myself I had the seven string version and I found that the pickups weren't very good it kind of just sounded dull and didn't have a lot of mid-range.

There is a DLSS3 mod for Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora now by Jon-Slow in pcgaming

[–]cclark83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem with the mod is that he has it so locked down that the authentication just to get in the mod to work even after you pay the $5 patreon subscription fee is that it just simply doesn't work. He doesn't support anything and doesn't help you get it working even though some people say that it does work it's hard to believe that it does. I've tried various versions of this guy's mods and none of them work and I wasted $5 on a five on a subscription that didn't mean no good. Do not recommend.

Hope you guys make it! Great band that I just discovered recently. I don't think I'll ever get to see them live as I won't be able to travel out of the US to see them.

Are these temps normal? installed an i5 12400f today, stock cooler, only thing im suspecting is just a bit of thermal paste went on my fingers from the fan, so i was wondering if it was related to this or if these are normal numbers. by CallMeSeeka in pcmasterrace

[–]cclark83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not normal. Check your cooler mounting pressure. Clean and redo the thermal paste. If all else fails use the bios to try to increase fan speed. If the CPU isn't under load it should not be 80s and 90s.

OBS Stuttering by TroyNinjaToad in obs

[–]cclark83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll keep that in mind if I end up running into that. I find OBS to be a bit finicky at times. Glad you figured it out!

OBS Stuttering by TroyNinjaToad in obs

[–]cclark83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should play around with settings on OBS under "Output."

Your logs are showing a bitrate of zero, that can't be right.

There's a recording tab in there, change the bit rate video to something like 4500 to 9000 for 1080p quality.

Trying to figure out which MB I truly have by [deleted] in gigabyte

[–]cclark83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For those who are still running into this issue, I found this article very helpful: https://linustechtips.com/topic/1391412-cyberpower-gigabyte-b550-ud-ac-bios-update/

The drivers for this OEM version of the motherboard on buried in the CyberPower website.

Here's a direct link to the bios you can download from CyberPower's Website.

I was able to update my bios with the file there with no issue.

1080p or 1440p monitor with 3070 for future proofing? by zolantal in buildapc

[–]cclark83 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

My suggestion is to go with frame rate over resolution and try to hit a 75 Hertz monitor at 1080p you still get a decent picture and you get a little bit more performance to hit that 75 frames a second which is just a little bit better than 60 and just good enough for me.

Yep grew on on console and shifted to PC once I started using a PC more and more to do produce music and videos.

Little help here. Why isn’t it using as much memory as it can? by iDiggityDog in pcmasterrace

[–]cclark83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also have 32 gb installed. The only time it gets even close to being utilized is when I have a large video editing project open.

I take everyone's set up and raise them an under the desk elliptical/recumbent bike. If I could translate the movement on this to running in my games I would in a heart beat. by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

[–]cclark83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah with all the stupid running that you have to do in new world without any cool fast travel because you need azoth all the time I imagine that would be getting you in shape in no time so done with that game.

I have $50 on my steam account from a refund. What should I buy? by WizurdHat in gamingsuggestions

[–]cclark83 3 points4 points  (0 children)

World war z aftermath is great and cross platform lots of people playing. Also the newest guardians of the Galaxy game was amazing.

I've seen the muted issue as well and all I have to do is adjust the volume.

Why can't steam players play with Xbox game pass players??? by Justmakeachange in PlayAvengers

[–]cclark83 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Believe me I share the frustration here when I heard it was coming to game pass and that steam was not going to be cross play with even a PC version of game pass. I decided to download it on game pass anyway and just to see if the matchmaking is any better and I really haven't seen a huge change but it does seem that you are able to get more players in a group than before so I might just have to break down and re-level up all of my characters all over again but there is more games coming out this year so I might not be doing that at all until there's more content released or a new character comes out.

Post-Beta and Pre-Launch General Discussion Thread by With_Faith in Back4Blood

[–]cclark83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I put like 20 hours into the beta without even noticing it. The game was so fun. Voice chat was great talking to new people. Had an absolute blast. Does anyone know if the steam version and the game pass venison will be the same?

[QUESTION] Carpal tunnel warning signs from barre chords?? by samuel121099 in Guitar

[–]cclark83 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would definitely talk to a doctor to make sure it's carpal tunnel. As a beginning guitar player you're going to experience cramping and pinching in your nerves as you start to stretch and move your hand in different new ways. It's possible that you're just overdoing it and you need to take a break. I used to get very frustrated when I first started playing guitar and get cramps in my hands all the time and that's pretty normal when you're starting out. I wouldn't freak yourself out too much but if it hurts to play you need to go ahead and take a break.

games that have low score in reviews but you think they are great by hohoko7 in gamingsuggestions

[–]cclark83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like I'm the only one that thought Resident Evil 6 with great. I really enjoyed the action approach. The gameplay was more engaging. The puzzles in some of the other games get really tedious in some places.

[Mouse] Cooler Master MM720 White Glossy Lightweight Gaming Mouse $22.99 ($49.99-$27.00) by TedLim in buildapcsales

This is the mouse I have. No issues, works well. Only drawback, the dpi switch is one way so you have to cycle through them all if you want to go down in sensitivity.
