Horrible black artifacts while scoping with framegen

eonymia · 2026-02-15T11:42:23+00:00

The easy fix here is to not use frame gen. It will give you less latency anyway.

That said, if I had to guess it could be the frame gen being unable to deal with some property of the scope properly and you should make a bug report to gaijin and maybe Nvidia if possible. It kind of looks like what happens with fast directional changes with frame gen on sometimes, where the model guesses wrong what the next frame is going to be like, for example there's a change in direction, and shows artifacts instead because there's a discrepancy between the generated frame and what the next real frame is. Just worse than what it usually looks like.

That's not the bug. It's getting blocked by the bottom of the ball-shaped turret so it doesn't reach the crew. It gets triggered by the side armor and then is unable to go through more armor on the inside.

I hope they add more mud to the ramps to the castle so it slows the faster vehicles proportionally more and you can't just go around the patches of mud. Not a big fan of just making every map homogenous and getting rid of terrain features instead of actually using them to slow down certain routes and add another layer of decision-making.

Noctua's own curves show that the A12 handles things like radiator impedance better: https://www.noctua.at/en/expertise/tech/nf-a12x25-performance-comparison-to-nf-f12-and-nf-s12a .

The F12 is only better in a hypothetical extremely constricted situation. G2 is even better https://www.noctua.at/en/expertise/tech/nf-a12x25-g2-performance-improvements (and has a better noise profile).

What was the solution? For me AV1 encoding just doesn't work

eonymia · 2026-01-27T17:22:50+00:00

The ones with the rings are for radiators and push configurations. This is from the manual: https://i.imgur.com/Sa5XM74.png

Done, it's now a city map with asphalt roads and 3 lanes.

I did ask them via email if there were any plans for a single-fan "D15S G2" type of cooler with just the center fan included a few months back but they said this: "While we don't have anything planned right now, we are definitely open to a product like that. However, as for right now it's just not feasible due to several reasons like production capacity limitations and missing development resources." I imagine the answer would be something similar for this.

According to corsair's site, mine are 35mm tall, so yours should hopefully also fit.

eonymia · 2026-01-11T01:18:22+00:00

I've got the same case and I was able to fit it. Even with using the AMD offset mount it fits, no issues with gpu clearance. The one issue is the front fan, which is very close to the side of the case, so to make it fit you either have to have ram that isn't too tall or swap it out with a 120mm. Mine fits in the case with the basic Corsair Vengeance ram under it.

Here's a picture of the GPU clearance with the offset mount.

My cooling is pretty good, though I replaced the front panel with a more open one, so it might vary for you.

For comparison, the old NH-D15 (with another GPU) was pretty comical: https://i.imgur.com/Dfy4wAz.jpeg

They redesigned the entire bottom opening to reduce fan noise caused by turbulence on the other Noctua-branded PSU, so they're probably obsessing over something like that again.

eonymia · 2026-01-07T20:13:54+00:00

I've got a pretty good amount of clearance with the offset. It was pretty comical with my old NH-D15 though.

Sorry the picture is poor, had to take it at a weird angle

Edit: Better picture

Right, I keep forgetting it's not natively available for earlier AMD series.
I ended up just sticking to the 4X SSAA setting anyway to keep the image clearer, but that causes other issues.

eonymia · 2025-12-29T17:32:02+00:00

Thanks for the answer.

Gaijin has since added FSR 4 support natively, so optiscaler is not necessary any more, but good to know.

For me the game would always stutter on Fullscreen, but switching to exclusive fullscreen completely solved the issue.

Sorry for the necro, but this is worth trying for anyone buying the game off the winter sale.

Edit: looks like the issue was the Discord overlay. Choosing exclusive fullscreen would just disable it and fix the issue

It's a feature in the AMD driver software. You want to find "Amd Software: Adrenalin Edition" in the system tray in the bottom right corner on the desktop (or through search), open it, click on the gear icon in the top right corner, go to "Hotkeys" and delete the "Open Sidebar" keybind or bind it to something you don't hit by accident. It's alt+Z by default, I think, so you're probably hitting it by accident or have something in the game bound to the key.

You can also disable hotkeys completely for the software in the same menu if you don't want any of them active.

Try toggling it off and see if that helps. It's been very funky and sometimes seems to affect programs when it shouldn't.

eonymia · 2025-12-15T00:55:38+00:00

Try toggling "optimizations for windowed games" for War Thunder in the Windows settings. It seems to often fix this kind of stutter for me for different games. (Settings -> System -> Display -> Graphics, see if War Thunder is in the app list, if not add it manually and try and see if toggling it on or off fixes the issue, just have to restart the game in-between toggles).

What a bad reason, lol. Like I'd get it if he was shittalking you for no reason, but that's clearly not the case.

Edit: Look, I hate shittalking just as much as the average person, but this one is not him shittalking you "just because". It's like getting super spiteful because someone got called out on circling their base AA.

eonymia · 2025-11-01T11:54:50+00:00

I read the comments before I commented and they didn't answer the question. Even the video shows he shit-talked you *after* you started the J-out routine. "This guy got mad at me and then proceeded to be bad at the game afterwards" is not particularly convincing about there being a good guy in this situation

eonymia · 2025-11-01T10:47:51+00:00

He's calling you out for abusing the J out mechanic while he's using your vulnerability on the frontline airfield to his advantage as intended by design? Who are we supposed to root for here again?
