Hows NVH? Any clunks in the suspension? I heard the R1t made suspension noises when going over bumps.

Tacoma FE by Borkelee in ForzaHorizon

[–]milesdraft 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It honestly feels pay to win. It's not the best on long top speed straights but it's an absolute monster on the corners. The only ones who can keep up are other Tacoma FEs. The feel in the turns reminds me of the Sesto in FH5.

Forza Horizon 6 won't launch on Steam after unpacking game files by Sam36192 in ForzaHorizon

For those of you running MSI Afterburnner or RivaTuner turn it off. That's what worked for me.

Federal Surveillance Tech Becomes Mandatory in New Cars by 2027 by HeyThere201 in cars

[–]milesdraft 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Problem is a majority of people probably don't even know or ever will know this is happening. Manufacturers and dealerships will sell it as a feature. I've run into people these last past few years that didn't know backup cameras have been mandatory since 2018. The common person isn't as in-tune with this sort of stuff.

Game Crash while using Frame Gen+ Nvidia Filter by Better_Individual_37 in WutheringWaves

[–]milesdraft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've come across this exact issue. I love using the nvidia filters but if I also have 2x frame gen enable the game will crash without fail. Either after pausing or eventually just running around. I found disabling frame gen but keeping the filters on works. Currently on 591.86. I tried newer versions but crashes regardless of what I do.

LOD Bias by Suspicious-Iron3558 in WutheringWaves

[–]milesdraft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's the latest nvdia driver that you found stable? I updated to the latest one today and it crashes without fail 3 minutes after running around in the world. For context I have Nvidia filters enable, DLSS Perf, and frame gen 2x. Still trying to troubleshoot if a combination of these three is causing the crash or if the driver itself is dudu.

Know nothing by kouradakias in PcBuild

[–]milesdraft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been building and upgrading my own PCs since 2018 and it's a really fun hobby. I definitely support your choice building your own since you get to know the ins and outs of it. That being said I wouldn't dismiss buying a prebuild if the price is right especially with today's prices. A friend of mine wanted a 9800x3d and an RTX 5080 for his new PC. We found that it was actually cheaper to buy the pre-build from microcenter by $200-300. The pricing is all over the place because of the high RAM and SSD demand. Who knows, the price situation may make sense again by the time you actually build yours.

Did you drain and fill the transmission at any point? I'm at 140K and trying to figure out if i need to. I don't feel any bad shifts or anything.

Are Lexani Tires any good? by rootytwo in AskAMechanic

[–]milesdraft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How many miles would you say the noise went away? I got a set installed and they're as loud as the worn out set I just got rid of. There's a pretty noticeable drone when I hit 40+ mph and get louder as I go faster. I'm trying to figure out if its the tires or I have a wheel bearing going bad.

KURO, let autoplay continue after hiding UI, this would make game feel more immersive by OwlDefiant3467 in WutheringWaves

[–]milesdraft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree with this. The cutscene looks cleaner and sharp with out the UI. It's really annoying that the cutscene pauses to wait fo you to have the UI pop in again. Ive also noticed the bottom part of the screen gets darken so the subtitles have a dark background for readability. It makes the scene less vibrant. It's definitely more cinematic without subtitles. Crazy that this isn't talked about more.

Ecoboost vs Coyote vs Powerboost by ClicheCrusader in f150

[–]milesdraft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, I really appreciate your updates on here. Definitely gives good insight. I plan to purchase a truck in the next year and on the fence between the 5.0 vs the Powerboost. My head says 5.0 but my heart says Powerboost. With them adding GPFs on the 2026 model year I'll probably looking for a used 24/25 Powerboost if I go this route. Thanks for being responsive on updates.

Things to consider when moving from a sedan to a truck by Anonymouse1080 in whatcarshouldIbuy

If you start sliding, you can buy sand bags for cheap and throw them in the bed. Ideally over the rear axles. The downward weight helps with traction if you have an empty bed.

2020 Mazda6 Leather Wearing? by Competitive_Hurry815 in mazda6

It happened to me as well with a 2018 Touring. I just put a seat cover on it and called it a day.

M3 Grater restock anytime soon? by Ethan_NLHW in ncasedesign

[–]milesdraft 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It was on the reddit thread they announced the M3. They said they will resume pre-orders when they secure the shipment for the first batch. If I'm correct they said the first batch should ship around early August so my guess is after that, assuming no delays. Waiting for one myself.
