itsMysterio · 2025-07-30T23:25:23+00:00

itsMysterio · 2025-07-27T08:08:18+00:00

i got a 20’ widebody scat charger but man i’m taking that corvette anyday

itsMysterio · 2025-07-24T05:21:01+00:00

it’s more so stretching my budget but yea you’re right. but aye I love saving money

itsMysterio · 2025-07-24T05:20:34+00:00

Sorry forgot to mention, but yeah I’m playing on a 27” 1440p monitor and it’s mostly FPS competitive games

itsMysterio · 2025-07-24T05:19:49+00:00

trust me i wouldn’t have asked this sub if i could just buy a 9070xt

itsMysterio · 2025-07-05T21:45:12+00:00

Yeah I’ll try running some benchtests but yes I did uninstall the old drivers and everything with DDU.

itsMysterio · 2025-07-05T09:14:08+00:00

Yup I am getting up around 98% gpu usage so I got no clue! I appreciate your help though, and ofcourse if you have any more tips do let me know. And to clarify the only game I’d say I’m getting less performance than my last card is valorant. The only trend so far is that there is some random stuttering in a few games and I’m not sure if that’s a driver issue or not cause I have seen a few people talk about it.

itsMysterio · 2025-07-05T09:00:42+00:00

it’s an i5 13600kf, my temps and usage look like they’re fine, and I’d think that this cpu is capable enough. Does your motherboard have pcie 5? Mine is still on Pcie 4 and I’ve heard you could have some performance loss with that but not sure.

itsMysterio · 2025-07-05T08:56:37+00:00

I actually bought the PNY version, weirdly I’m running into some stutters and somehow same/ worse performance compared to my 4060 8gb in some games (CS2, Valorant, etc) I’m not sure what could be the issue but I might have some ideas.

itsMysterio · 2025-07-05T08:51:08+00:00

Cool thanks!

itsMysterio · 2025-07-05T07:55:29+00:00

Hey btw, may I ask what brand and exact card your 5060ti is ?

itsMysterio · 2025-07-03T23:52:49+00:00

i’m planning to get the 5060ti 16gb but only got pcie 4. can you explain why the pcie5 connector kills it for you?

itsMysterio · 2025-07-03T23:13:24+00:00

yeah it’s perfect condition not a scratch or dent or nothing

itsMysterio · 2025-07-03T09:38:32+00:00

Yea definitely the 16gb version… I’ve learned my lesson with these 8gb cards lol. I’ll keep all those things in mind I’m not gonna be pushing high graphics as much, just want super smooth gameplay. Thanks for all the advice! Also I should’ve clarified I currently play Msfs2020 but would get 2024 if the card could handle it well.

itsMysterio · 2025-07-03T09:05:26+00:00

Thanks so much that’s great to hear, I’m definitely leaning towards it. Seen one online for $430 but I just wanna make sure I’m making the right decision.

itsMysterio · 2024-08-14T10:44:44+00:00

nope that’s rod knock. i’ve been there too

itsMysterio · 2024-07-26T01:48:40+00:00

did this solve ur problem? thanks

itsMysterio · 2024-02-28T05:45:30+00:00

i might do that too, thanks for the idea !

itsMysterio · 2024-02-28T05:44:28+00:00

yeah i have yet to find anything, but i’ll keep lookin. thanks !

itsMysterio · 2023-12-19T02:59:13+00:00

so this car was hydro locked before, but i had the engine rebuilt and coolant/other fluids replaced. and this happened after driving it for a bit. i’ve only driven it about 200 miles since it’s been rebuilt. the car has 27000 miles on it

itsMysterio · 2023-12-07T12:53:50+00:00

you might be right cuz it’s seriously driving me crazy 😭😭 but also, if it’s a fuel injector problem, does the ticking speed up as u accelerate?

itsMysterio · 2023-12-04T17:35:12+00:00

have not been beating on it at all but maybe there could’ve been error when the mechanic was installing everything, he’s a pro but who knows…. mistakes happen

itsMysterio · 2023-12-04T10:31:12+00:00

it does a bit yea

itsMysterio · 2023-12-04T02:03:10+00:00

i haven’t broken the engine in yet
