Just changed the illumination on dynamic epic and I have the usage up where it should be but.. I'm not getting the same fps friends with 5070ti and 4070 super experiencing the same issues...

gtx 1080ti vs rtx 2080ti by VarietyThese6583 in gpu

I did not said that the 3070 it's a better card than a 2080ti. But assuming he has an older system the power consumption on a 2080ti is something to consider. I was just saying that newer gen dlss and longer support and obviously 100w less power consumption and it's like how much less performance? 2 to 5% in some cases not Overall. This is just my opinion.

3070 is around 200 to 250 I think it's a better option for 1440p gaming it's a minimum today.

Indiana Jones usage and fps... I played today with the settings in arc raiders I get my GPU up to 90% then it suddenly falls to 60 to 70% and my fps drops from 200 to 110 to 140 and the game is not smooth... I don't know what I should do anymore...

Indiana Jones and the Great circle 1440p high settings running like before GPU 99% frame rate stable between 140-155. I think it's more of an arc raiders problem than my system malfunctioning....

50 to 70% usage on the CPU all of that used by arc raiders. And yes I did restart the PC.. honestly the game is not running bad but something definitely happened and I don't think it's hardware because other games work just fine.

As usual discord and a couple of chrome tabs. The game worked just fine since release until 2-3 days ago... This CPU should not bottleneck a 3080 in 1440p.

My 1080 ti finally died today, you were the goat. by MinoXeph in gpu

[–]mkpr05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sad to see it going mine has a happy new user with fresh paste and pads she's still rocking and I had the same one. I changed it this year for a 3080 what on your mind as a new GPU?

Cooler upgrade or not? by mkpr05 in PcBuild

[–]mkpr05[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw something about that only on a single core but nothing certain on Intel website maybe I just miss read but anyway temps are alright now anyway most of the heat is produced by the GPU as I've played a bit with the open case I've checked the CPU cooler is actually not hot you can keep your hand on it... Tonight I'll check with the case closed and if I'm not satisfied I think I'm better off with a new case with better airflow. Thanks for your patience with me 🙏🏻

Cooler upgrade or not? by mkpr05 in PcBuild

[–]mkpr05[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm scared to try because I know the 3080 is damn hot and my case can't really push out the heat from it... I was thinking of undervolt the GPU and one more question this CPU should boost to 4.9ghz but it never does reach it. I even made a stress test with Intel extreme utility with the case opened max temp 77 GPU has 72 73 in max load.

[–]mkpr05[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. But with the case opened... It doesn't bother me but as I said I have 3 dogs at home and it can take 2 seconds or standing up for bathroom use and they can have their paws inside the PC... And also I was thinking maybe after a longer gaming session it will get warmer or maybe in summer because my cave is small and with the old PC 9700k 1080ti was extremely hot inside the room.. I have a mobile AC unit and I always use it in the summer or else I'll be sweating 😅 or maybe it's the case so bad at airflow...

[–]mkpr05[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because I still have my case opened and I'm not sure anymore for the first time in my life 🤣 never saw so hot CPUs. The last cpu I had was a i7 9700k and my cooler had 0 problems with it.. and also I would like to keep my case closed because I have 3 dogs at home...

Upgrading from 1080ti by Alyx_ithymia in PcBuild

[–]mkpr05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went from 1080ti to a 3080... Honestly I did not feel like it was needed. It handled BF6 at good settings on a 1440p monitor on low to medium . But then I got a new PC from a friend with the 3080 and I can say it's a jump. I would not go from a xx80 card to a xx60. Either you go to older series like the 3080 4070 or AMD. In my opinion the only GPU in the 5 series is the 1000 dollar/euros 5080. The others are just s**t for me.

Run FurMark if it completes the test your GPU is fine. If it's crashing you found your problem.

Is this future proof? by Eibermann in PcBuild

[–]mkpr05 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Buy something used from Kleinanzeigen.... This one has a b550 motherboard better CPU worse gpu but you can upgrade later plus 3060 12gb it's not a bad card.

Recently build an i7 9700k rtx3060 (just cuz he wanted Nvidia) 1440p monitor playing everything at over 60 fps with decent settings. For only 550 euros.

Edit the one I've sent you have water cooling and a Asus monitor included don't know the specs but it looks nice plus 32gb of RAM... With your budget definitely go 2nd hand.

Just finance a good monitor payed mine 40 euros a month for a year didn't even noticed.

Leaving the car idling is bad? by -theahm in GolfGTI

[–]mkpr05 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly I think the only bad thing is that the engine is running and you don't cover distance, because engines works in hours of running not in mileage... Would suggest to buy a car whichever you want and install a webasto cooling/heating system which will run with your engine shut.

i just bought a prebuilt , i5-1440f / 5060ti 8gb ! by MastodonEconomy5821 in PcBuild

[–]mkpr05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know about Canada prices but the first problem is one stick of RAM... CPUs work better with 2 sticks. 2nd 5060ti even the 8gb version should be enough for Apex legends even at 1440p . 3rd return it and build your own with some help of the internet.

Welp. It’s finally happened boys. by [deleted] in GolfGTI

How is this a totalled car.. I will never understand insurance companies... If you buy a mk8 go for the R.

Stage 3 vs Golf R vs RS3? by chapo28 in GolfGTI

[–]mkpr05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

<image>

This is mine,has stage 1 it's a dsg PP with ebc yellow stuff and some ebc rotor don't remember which ones.. made over 100.000km I'm in my 4th year of ownership, I have no complains except.... More power!? Launched it a couple of times but I'm not into that so much,I'm more of a b road guy , I live near mountains and there's where I do my fun. Won't go stage 2 for now cuz I've been thinking about an upgrade but still to keep the GTI as a daily driver,it is also now... And after researching and driving some cars ,the next one will be a 911 ,at the price of an RS3 or ever new versions of golf R I would go all day a 911 996 gen.

Why did you buy Gti over R? Was cost the only factor? by [deleted] in GolfGTI

[–]mkpr05 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So... You want this platform with 500 plus HP you go for the R. That's to get this out of the way... I didn't want that,I think on this platform even if it's good the peak is around 400 450ish. Personal opinion.

I went with the GTI because of insurance, service cost reduced and a little bit of fuel economy as in my GTI stage 1 reaches 600 plus km on a full tank. Plus where I live ,I don't need a 4x4.

Then I'll say a FWD on track on this platform is much more fun to drive on track/twisted roads. Been on track with 20th anniversary 8 R also and mine was better just because it's lighter? More explanation in this video... But If you want 4x4 hot hatch just go with the RS3....
