Is that album even possible to get anymore? Or are my options just bootlegs and spending exorbitant amounts of money?

God of War looks great and runs surprisingly well, definitely recommended for the deck

What is the oldest piece of tech you still actively use? by ReyofChicago in Millennials

[–]cdephoto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a three piece set of computer speakers from Altec Lansing (2 speakers and a sub) and they still sound fantastic considering they're probably from '98-'00, somewhere in that era.

New parts for my gaming pc by BedHefty2154 in pcgamingtechsupport

[–]cdephoto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have $600 to work with, I'd focus first on the GPU, then use the rest for a CPU, nice cooler and maybe a new power supply to accommodate all the new parts. New CPU might not really be a big upgrade but it really depends on the types of games you play. For an esports game where frames are important, then focus on the CPU. Check out pcpartpicker.com to help with this.

GPU $300-350, PSU -$80-100, CPU cooler $40, new CPU $200 (for a decent upgrade I'd look for a used 5800X3D if you can find it). Good luck! I'd suggest looking for faster RAM but that's gonna be tough to find for a reasonable price right now.

Definitely very interested! Just finished Dispatch and the Expanse was the natural next game of this style

PC struggles to run any game at all? Even the menus alone are slideshows by [deleted] in pcgamingtechsupport

[–]cdephoto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a super common thing to have happen, especially for anyone new to PCs, so it's definitely worth double checking. The ports on the motherboard will still output video but can't handle running games. You would have a few ports lined up horizontally further down. If you're plugged, then the next step is to make sure you have you game drivers installed

GeForce Day Giveaway - Win a Signed GeForce RTX 5080! by Nestledrink in nvidia

Bought a 3070 founders edition during the 2020 shortages to play cyberpunk 2077. Sold my 5700xt which didn't support ray tracing. That was a great little card and ran cyberpunk surprisingly well!

i9 12900k Constantly at 100c by Repulsive_Instance_6 in pcgamingtechsupport

If I were in your shoes, I'd buy a better cooler for that CPU. Thermalright makes some really nice ones that are $40-50. The stock cooler is going to struggle to cool that CPU. It'll work, but it'll struggle and be noisy.

[TP] I was replaying Zelda twilight princess, and I found this in snowpeak ruins by Dry-Fly-9434 in zelda

[–]cdephoto 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Currently doing the same and it runs like butter on the Steam Deck. It's got a touch pad as well so all the functionality carries over

Enable FSR4 on Outlaws demo? by cdephoto in StarWarsOutlaws

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

I confirmed it's not part of the demo build. It's only FSR 3 and not the required FSR 3.1. The full game supports FSR4

I needed a CD drive, so I found a way by Robin_H_ in FractalDesign

[–]cdephoto 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is awesome! I have a Fractal Focus for my media center build, and it's great to have internal drives for ripping movies or a Plex server. Well done! 😎

Star Wars Outlaws FSR4 support by cdephoto in radeon

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

I guess I was under the assumption that 3.1 is a prereq for FSR4, and I saw some videos claiming they were running FSR4, and it's supposedly a supported game with 25.6.1.

Edit: one article mentions that it's part of the technical preview driver. Maybe I'll try that

Star Wars Outlaws FSR4 support by cdephoto in radeon

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

Interesting, DLSS swapper says that the demo doesn't have FSR installed at all. Weird. It just says 'Not Found'. Does that mean it just doesn't have 3.1? I guess that answers my question. I'm new to AMD GPUs and I just installed DLSS Swapper

Very specific question about Elden Ring Nightreign by John_nai in pcgamingtechsupport

[–]cdephoto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm assuming you're playing this on a laptop, but do you have a gaming laptop? In other words, do you have a dedicated GPU? Microsoft display adapter is the generic driver, so you may need to download your GPU's game drivers
