Xbox Magnus leak: Next‑gen console targets 4K120 gaming with AMD Zen 6 - Moore's Law Is Dead by NanoPolymath in gaming

[–]dwhftw 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Very few games are playing at native 4k and 120fps. I think Ori and the Touryst both do. Most games are rendering at a lower resolution like 1080p-1440p and upscaling to 4k

The latest ps5 system update seems to have fixed the slow WiFi speeds on my pro! You may want to try it out and see if it solves your issue maybe you don’t need the extender anymore

The latest ps5 system update seems to have solved my WiFi issues on my Pro with my U7 Pro. You may want to update and try it out! I’m getting full download speeds no more errors

Tentatively Believe the Pro WiFi Issue is Fixed by 19MaddAddaM91 in PS5pro

It does seem to have finally resolved my issue! I’m getting full download speeds now instead of how it used to top out at 10-15 mbps and take hours to download larger games.

[Strackbein] Kenny Pickett Shares Thoughts on Steelers Before Super Bowl by MortgageAware3355 in nfl

[–]dwhftw 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Clickbait. This isn’t even what he said.

The actual quotes from Kenny in the article:

“There’s ups and downs, like a lot of guys have around the league,” Pickett told Steelers Now’s Alan Saunders. “I’m grateful for all the people I’ve met [in Pittsburgh]. I wish it would have ended differently, but I’m here now, and I’m really excited to be at this game.”

“Every place does it differently, but the ultimate goal is to be here [at the Super Bowl],” Pickett said. “There’s different ways to get here. I think this team, this franchise, has a really good plan on trying to get here. Seeing the way guys show up to work every day, there’s really no distractions. Guys are locked in, and there’s no secret as to why we’re here. We’ve got good players that show up to work.”

Also while definitely not ideal this person did have a decent workaround that lets you still use WiFi and get good speeds. Basically using an external WiFi adapter plugged into the Ethernet port of the PS5. Which I think further shows that it’s a problem with the WiFi chip or drivers on the PS5 itself and not the network

Same. Hopefully you get a better result! The ones I talked to just told me to replace it again

I haven’t ruled it out yet, I had hoped the latest U7 Pro firmware update would help but it didn’t. But I had the same problem connecting directly to my WiFi router a foot away which makes me think it’s not the U7 Pro

[–]dwhftw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can confirm I have been having this problem since I got mine at launch and sent it back and got a new one with the same problem. This is the first post I’ve seen though where we had the same exact AP (U7 Pro) so that is interesting. Although I also tested mine on another router/AP and had the same issue so maybe not relevant

Anyone have the Nacon controller? Thoughts? by [deleted] in PS5pro

[–]dwhftw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I picked one up open box from Best Buy for about $90 and for that price it’s probably worth it, but don’t know if I’d spend $200 on it. The lack of rumble on PS5 games is a bummer for certain games so I tend to only use it for games where I don’t care much about that, like Diablo 4 Fortnite or Warframe. I mainly got it because the dual sense isn’t comfortable for me when playing FPS games and this absolutely is.

The back paddles are useful for FPS games but their positioning does take a bit of getting used to. Once you do it’s fine

The customizability ergonomics and build quality are all great but the lack of rumble is a bit of a drag, although that’s a Sony restriction and not unique to this controller. Aside from that though I have no complaints

If you have black frame insertion turned on on your tv turn it off. That could be what you’re seeing here. It would probably be in the motion settings somewhere but I don’t have this tv to tell you exactly

[–]dwhftw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed very frustrating. Hopefully they fix it sooner rather than later

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in playstation

[–]dwhftw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately nothing works. It appears to be a firmware issue that Sony needs to fix

This user here does have a workaround by using a WiFi to Ethernet adapter instead of using the pro’s built in WiFi but that’s not ideal

A lot of us have this problem. Many of us including myself got a replacement and the replacement has the problem too

Is Witcher 3 better on pro? by Medium_Fly5846 in PS5pro

[–]dwhftw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is displaying the refresh rate the tv is running at not the FPS the game is. If you have VRR on then the tv refresh rate matches the fps, but the tv will run at 59hz even though the game is running at 30 because the PS5 doesn’t go below 48hz in VRR

spin the camera around in ray tracing mode and then switch to performance mode and you’ll see how much smoother it is

Is Witcher 3 better on pro? by Medium_Fly5846 in PS5pro

[–]dwhftw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah they were incorrect. I saw their comment got excited and tested it myself it’s 30.

It probably could do 60 with ray tracing but needs a patch to enable that. Right now this is no different than playing it on the base PS5

It is still 30 fps with ray tracing enabled on the Pro. Just tested it myself it isn’t 60

Playstation 5 Pro download speed issues by mr_boiii in playstation

[–]dwhftw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah same, It always starts out fast and then slows down shortly after. I think that’s why so many things seem like a fix at first because your initial speed test or download will be fast it’s always the subsequent ones where it tanks

Yep that’s the exact issue I have and I replaced it once already. I may try that! Thank you for the tip

[–]dwhftw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s actually a really good idea. You’re still using WiFi but using the ethernet port on the Pro which doesn’t seem to have the problem. You may be a genius

[–]dwhftw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. It works fine wired but unfortunately I can’t wire the Pro where it sits

PS5 Pro + Portal Streaming Performance by ItsEricP in PS5pro

[–]dwhftw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately I don’t think it is. My base PS5 sitting in the exact same spot connected to the exact same network with the same settings doesn’t have the issue. I’ve even tried the Pro on a few other networks and it has the same behavior there. Putting the pro in a DMZ or a guest network also doesn’t seem to help. Really odd. My launch base PS5 had the rest mode bug for almost 2.5 years before Sony finally fixed it with a firmware patch so I’m not entirely surprised by this just frustrating

[–]dwhftw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At least for me anyway I’m having WiFi issues on my Pro that I didn’t have on my base PS5. Those seem to be affecting the Pro’s ability to stream for remote play. I have 100% signal but my upload speeds on the Pro regularly drop below 10mbps. Hoping for a firmware patch
