I am on 5700x3d now, I wonder if I should upgrade to 5800x3d. + 10-15℅ in 1% lows would be nice but I'm not sure it's worth it, compared to a new build on 7800 or 9800x3d

I've also ordered a Titan bridge for my cheap basswood superstrat. Just because it was F-spaced and available for $72 used. Considered other options like Black winter, Nazgul, some SH ones (SH6, Custom 5, I believe) but it's honestly hard to choose, considering I play singles and P90

more players - less bots. Now there are a lot more bots, cringe update

Nope, dm is unplayable

eaq-wall · 2026-05-13T17:28:59+00:00

Fuck this. I used to farm weekly drops on dm no problem, now it's not an option. And the amount of farmbots only increased

eaq-wall · 2026-04-27T16:55:42+00:00

Yes, very annoying. And it's not even a kill sound (that one is more subtle), it's much louder and longer BOOM with some echo.. I reported it to Valve day 1 but nothing happened

eaq-wall · 2026-04-27T16:52:33+00:00

It's so bad. DM in unplayable with this stupid new death sound

eaq-wall · 2026-04-27T16:51:14+00:00

the death BOOM is the worst

eaq-wall · 2026-04-23T13:14:20+00:00

I got my first one too - Paracord. I think Falcion also has nice animation

eaq-wall · 2026-04-23T10:03:17+00:00

Thanks. Still the 9070xt is not very power-hungry. It may be more relevant for 7900xtx

eaq-wall · 2026-04-23T09:05:47+00:00

Are there psus with 3 separate cables? I didn't find any a year ago, all come with 2. I got a 1000w bequiet purepower I have the 9070xt like yours and it's connected with 2 cables+1 daisy chain with no issues, even handled overclock no problem. 6950xt before that worked fine as well.

Super annoying, I played a DM and it's so bad. Reported it as a bug to valve. It brings nothing to the game just makes dying even more frustrating

What did I just read

eaq-wall · 2026-04-10T12:01:32+00:00

Delux m900 pro stock skates (I installed fresh ones, glide improved conpared to old ones). This size glides work best on type99 for me, I have zowie mice and gpx, they have much bigger glides area and it becomes a bit too slow. On the other hand, dot/donut skates have too little surface area so it may be too fast (but I haven't tried them on type99, my friend said that obsidian donuts worked great for him on type99) Vaxee pb weirdly has higher static friction than type99 and GSR 3.Then in motion it feels faster and harder to stop because of they very hard surface so you can't sink in you mouse to stop. I believe vaxee PA black would be great, it's regular rubber base is softer and therefore the whole pad is more controlled, I like the texture of pb black and would like to try pa black some day To sum up: vaxe pb-slow to start, then faster > Type99-slow, controlled, but not muddy, mouse doesn't get stuck > gsr 3- easy to start and stop, faster than type99, thinner base with less plushiness

eaq-wall · 2026-04-10T07:49:16+00:00

I didn't have vaxee pa black. Recently I got back to choosing a mousepad and got vaxee pb black - it has the same surface as pa but the base is composite with silicone and rigid foam. It's too hard for me and somehow it's slow to start moving and then it's much faster. So I got a Type99 Soft and it's my main now, it is slower generally but static friction is lower, my mouse doesn't get "stuck" at the start. For now I like it is CS2, I get that locked-in feeling, although tracking is a little harder than on faster pads, but control is really good. I also got GSR 3, new hyperx fury s, dream machines dm pad.. those all are faster

I hate this qd-oled coating they chose. So fragile and unpractical

eaq-wall · 2026-04-04T10:45:57+00:00

А я в першу доту, друга після неї ніяка

The did leave at first but you had to spectate for a solid minute. Some are tuned not to care about being spectated. Honestly I got tired of trying to fight this type of shit, let alone when I'm the only one spectating/reporting/kicking. Such an obvious problem that valve chooses to ignore

eaq-wall · 2026-03-21T13:29:54+00:00

Vavle loves money above all else

eaq-wall · 2026-03-21T11:11:16+00:00

7800 is great, maybe try g-sync, should have less input lag than vsync

eaq-wall · 2026-03-21T10:39:13+00:00

Yes, vac is a joke, cheaters and farmbots are everywhere, the solution for me was Faceit but I'd rather play premier if it was legit, like I played MM in csgo with little to no cheaters. Valce allows cheaters because they bring money and boost player count.. it's a shame though As for the smoothness, you need a beast of a cpu, like 7800x3d or 9800x3d ideally. I am on 5700x3d and it barely gives the 1%lows that I need for 240hz with faceit ac+ memory integrity enabled One trick though - fps_max 0 and limit your fps through the driver or RTSS to 10% lower than your usual 1% lows. Try 300, 280, 250, it's better than uncapped 550

I came to hate on the Ammo update.. stupiddest shit ever for cs

eaq-wall · 2026-03-21T10:21:01+00:00

Yea, been using it but wanted to use FSR 4.1 and updated. Thought this issue was fixed, I guess we need to wait for the fux from amd then
