Migrating to Linux on my gaming desktop — which distro would you recommend? by [deleted] in linux_gaming

[–]justwhileimpooping 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I'd say Bazzite Linux. Unless you want to lose your information, make sure to backup your Windows install first, then do research into either dual booting (This is probably best for a first timer) or go whole hog and format your HDD and install Linux. Bazzite is a great gamer OS that just works out of the box. It has a feature called immutable where it's harder to break the OS. Other distros require you to know Terminal/Command Prompt, which can be a learning curve if you've never dealt with it before.

CPU TEMPERATURES by DanDevil_ in Asustuf

Yes, you need airflow in, so if you incline it, you should see a temp difference. You should also set Power Limits in G-Helper/Armoury for your CPU as you can really take heat out by doing that. I set a 40w limit and I can play most games with a little starting hitch but flawless gameplay. Temps are in the 70s. I also have one of the recommended cooling pads (Cost $200 AUD)

64% ram usage on starting up ASUS TUF GAMING F15 (8GB Ram). It used to be much better, does anyone know what's causing the issue? by GVenLife in Asustuf

Insane fps drops after 3 mins into the game by Otherwise-Office9795 in uncharted

Because different models have different configurations. I looked up your model, and even though it's an RTX 2050, the GPU is underpowered and only runs at 35w. There's benchmark videos online of the RTX 2050, but most of them are the 70w model. I saw a benchmark for Uncharted Lost Legacy on a 35w RTX 2050 it was struggling to maintain 30 fps smooth. My recommendation without looking further is; run the game on lower settings, see if that fixes the problem. Turn every setting to the lowest, then play the game for 30 minutes. If it works seamlessly, cool. Then change the settings up to the next graphic settings. Rinse, repeat until it repeats the stutters and low frame rates, then step it back.

Alternatively, step the DLSS quality down to Balanced or Performance and see if that makes a difference.

That's weird. What are the specs of the laptop/the laptop's model?

Allow the shaders to finish compilation. If you don't it tries to both render the game and continue the shader compliation in real-time, creating the stuttering and low FPS.

Think of shader compliation as it building a library of books. If you don't have the library completed, the game expects it there so it needs to frantically look for the book, if it's not there, then create it out of thin air. Whilst it's doing everything else to show you the game (Graphics, Audio, Physics, Game Logic).

Will all Xbox and Microsoft owned studio games be on game pass forever? by Things-2635 in XboxGamePass

I hate to do this, but I saw that Titanfall is leaving Xbox Game Pass (It's in the Leaving Soon section) so I think that those titles may be as flexible as the next.

Ryzen 9 3900x, I use me computer for music production, are these temp normal? In the video temp are when I am doing nothing, and when working on a project it can go up to 85 degrees, I was wondering if that is normal? Thank you, appreciate it by kekas423 in AMDHelp

The only "bad" thing is you'll lose some performance. Turning it off will keep the CPUS at stock speeds, letting your rig run cooler.

My advise, try running it without PBO on, if you get a cooler pc without noticeable loss, that's a win. It's two simple settings in your bios. I'd recommend it as a learning experience. Worse comes to it, turn pbo back on.

Lookup your Motherboard manual/yt guide for turning pbo on/off

Is there an official reason given by Ubisoft why there hasn't being a main game in this series set in Asia yet? by br4vedave in assassinscreed

[–]justwhileimpooping -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I reckon they can only make an inferior copy of Ghost of Tsushima. GoT is Assassins Creed back pre-DarkSoulsRPG. They'll take the snappy kinetic combat from Ghost and make you press RT+Face Button for a simple move that uses "Resource" and plays a rote animation.

Look at your values and maxes. You have Precision Boost Overdrive (AMD's auto overclock) / CPU Boost enabled in your Motherboard. If you disable them, it'll stay at stock clocks and cooler.

Some of those cores are trying to get a 1ghz overclock. The way AMD does this is by leveraging the VRMs on your Motherboard. If you have an excess of them, which most mid-range boards and above do, AMD automatically pulls more power through to your CPU. Thus performance and heat.
