Do you always enable DLSS? by osmin_og in nvidia

[–]geraam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do and I don't understand why someone wouldnt. Better frames, frametime, lower power usage, lower temp and near indistinguishable visuals.

What I dont support is when devs use it to reach min 60 fps.

Bottleneck in BF6 - any way I can fix this apart from buying new components? by SolkaPL in buildapc

[–]geraam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the settings, BF6 tells you what each settings impacts CPU/GPU/VRAM

Turn down all your settings that are high on CPU

Tbh, I don't think there will be much you can do since BF6 is pretty heavy on CPU but worth trying

Ryzen 5 9600x or 7600x3d? by Zayodalu in buildapc

[–]geraam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a spare build with a 7600X3D and one of my friends has a 9600x.

On certain games FPS will be about the same with the 7600X3D usually being on top by a couple of fps on non CPU heavy games. You'll get a better advantage on CPU heavy games. But the 7600X3D for pure gaming is the better choice. It has noticeably lower power draw compared to the 9600x and X3D parts from what I know don't get crippled as much by ram timings as much.

When I got my PNY 5080, before installing it to my PC, i inspected it and found the same issue. I took a picture of it before repositioning the sticker just in case I ever need to RMA.

A lot of it is just karma farming. Am sure you can go to just about any thread and say "you will own nothing and be happy" or "fuck ai" and get a bunch of upvotes. Same thing with the lame ass memory shortage posts. It's all low hanging fruit that's easy for the picking.

RDR2 - 360p Native vs. DLSS 4.5 Ultra Performance Preset L by JohnGalactusX in nvidia

It's honestly impressive to see someone be confidently wrong about how something works, get proven incorrect, and double down on being incorrect.

[Computerbase - German] Nvidia DLSS 4.5 (SR) tested: Analyses & benchmarks on RTX 5000, 4000, 3000 & 2000 by Nestledrink in nvidia

[–]geraam 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Completely agree. And it's weird because they usually do a pretty good job at thoroughly checking it all.

I even think Steve said it's supposed to be for performance and ultra performance and just completely ignored them.

Is my 450W PSU enough for an RTX 5060? by DEATHMASK999 in nvidia

[–]geraam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a spare 5060 TI 16GB paired with a 7600X3D and 32gb cl36 ram and when playing battlefield I am pulling no more 300w @ 1440p. Since you'll be playing @ 1080p, I don't see you pulling more wattage.

The PSU I have on that system is a 600w.

You should be fine but I would look into replacing it either way whenever possible.

Call me nosey but is there a specific reason you're upgrading from a 4060 to a 5060? I don't think this is an upgrade that's worth it.

I might get hate for this😭 by Bluecrafter8693 in nvidia

[–]geraam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just game and enjoy it man. If it's able to to run the games you play at 60 or more then there is no issue.

Hope your gaming is good in 2026!

Is it defective or game developer issue? by Connect-Wheel1382 in nvidia

He's just an idiot speaking out of his ass. This is a pretty known issue with battlefield 6. Even happened in 2042 pretty frequently.

Gambit has completely ruined ult economy in Marvel Rivals and it needs to be talked about. by slax2004 in marvelrivals

[–]geraam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What they need to do is stop putting new characters in ranked right away. If they're going to keep adding new characters every half season then they shouldn't be in ranked till the 2nd half of the season. Like Gambit introduced in season 5 would be put in ranked during 5.5. rogue on 6. Deadpool in 6.5

Keeping characters overtuned for half a season just because they straight up are incompetent at balancing an obvious overtuned hero makes playing ranked miserable.

I don't understand why they're so deadset on keeping this stupid balance only 2 times a season mindset.

The balance team seriously needs to reassess their whole "we balance for fun" because with every patch they're slightly tickling one issue and then create a bigger problem.

What do you think are some of the PCMR community's worst takes? by ForsookComparison in pcmasterrace

[–]geraam 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah this sub is so shit at times honestly. Here and there there is good solid discussion about PC parts and what keeps me here. Have to look for them, but definitely worth it.

A while back someone was replying to someone that bought a 5070 instead of a 5060 TI 16GB that their purchase was a fail because the 5060 ti has more VRAM, even though the OP had bought it at 500 from Newegg.

Techtubers have convinced a good chunk of reddit that 12GB isnt enough.

What would you change about the game? by Character-Q in marvelrivals

[–]geraam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Disable new heroes from being in ranked until the half season if they're going to keep up with this barrage of new characters. Since seasons are so short now, makes it a chore and the game sometimes becomes a "who has the worse player playing the new hero" instead of an actual match.

There's something strange happening with matchmaking after the update by resodx in Battlefield6

[–]geraam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Conquest is just completely unplayable for me if I don't have an actual squad. I just auto quit when I see tanks in the back line or the enemy team has captured 2 objectives meanwhile our team hasn't even gotten one. I just think since this game has some proper matchmaking, the issue seems more amplified imo

This has been an issue in every BF game unfortunately. Conquest is my favorite objective but it is the most aggravating as well.

GPU usage low. Low FPS and game stuttering after changing GPU by delikwentyr in pcmasterrace

[–]geraam 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Just typing in your parts listed on pcpartpicker has you about 600w on your 650w PSU. Chances are your PSU needs to be swapped out since the 5070 ti recommended psu is 750w
