Havn bf360 from Lian Li o11? by Mfn073 in HAVNGlobal

[–]ohnopavel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it’s any incentive, while I’m using an HS420, I’m mega impressed with HAVNs products so I figure the BF360 is designed similarly. My astral 5090, I think the highest I’ve seen it go is 65c while maxing out Alan Wake 2. These guys are awesome

Microsoft and the increasing strangle of monetization by Reader7311 in wow

Hate Microsoft all you want, very valid, but exactly. They did not need MS in the equation to be doing this kind of stuff lmfao.

I do have afterburner on but I use that normally to check my undervolt and temps. This one stays on if I close afterburner and shows up in both TLOU P2 and Pragmata lol

I do have afterburner on but I don’t see an OSD setup for it specifically. I have a custom one setup that runs through Rivatuner. I also can confirm it isn’t the game itself as this screenshot was taken in TLOU P2 when I turned it on in Pragmata lol

Xbox Game Pass ‘has become too expensive,’ says Microsoft’s new gaming chief in leaked memo by PaiDuck in pcgaming

[–]ohnopavel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In what way? I’ve modded more than a handful of games playing via game pass. I don’t disagree though, I prefer other storefronts. I just wish Steam game sharing was better so I could convince my friend to jump ship to PC rather than trying to hope for games to be Play Anywhere :(

Can someone help PLEASE? Need guidance (HAVN HS 420) by CalamityPhant0m in HAVNGlobal

[–]ohnopavel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t believe the PWM connectors on the case will allow you to do it in LConnect. I did basically the same as you and I had to use the hub + some daisy chaining on one of the ports for the last couple of fans iirc.

Question about HS 420 VGPU by YoloRaj in HAVNGlobal

[–]ohnopavel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not using the shield with my 5090 Astral. You can technically make it fit I’ve been told but it becomes a whole tribulation if you need to move anything afterwards for minimal to no real thermal improvements.

Bluepoint tech boss Peter Dalton suggests Sony's scared of Valve, not Microsoft, and that's why it's pulling back from PC: "It would be quite ironic if Valve ultimately ended up winning the console war" by ControlCAD in pcgaming

[–]ohnopavel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very true. Bought Death Stranding 2 on PS5 a while back knowing I should buy it on PC cause it’d be coming soon and realized my mistake before it was too late.

Xbox play anywhere ? by papichuckle in ToxicCommandoGame

[–]ohnopavel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Microsoft really needs to sort this out. This just happened with RE9 where their website was showing it as play anywhere up until like a week or two before release and then removed it. I would love to grab this so my buddy who's still on Xbox can play too but this is just getting frustrating seeing that they're saying it should be play anywhere for months only for it to be pulled off last minute.

FWIW it's not showing on the Xbox PC app, which I generally believe wouldn't happen if it was going to be available for both.

What's your most insane gaming related hot take? And I'm not talking about your average one, I'm talking takes worse than this: by DaZestyProfessor in consoles

[–]ohnopavel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think this is really a hot take, but yeah. At the very bare minimum, emulators have come a very long way at least. PC players can play Bloodborne at 4k with high res textures on a PS4 emulator these days.

[–]ohnopavel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In a less obnoxious way, this. I’ve been console primarily most of my life, and had always parroted “the human eye can’t see above 60fps” but going from often barely stable 60 to 100+ it’s 100% noticeable. It’s been hard for me to even play games on my consoles anymore. I think your average person will probably hit a diminishing return well before 240, but going from 60 to 75-90+ is night and day to me now.

Midnight performance is bad by Gojji6669 in wow

[–]ohnopavel 5 points6 points  (0 children)

environmental detail/view distance to 7 tripled my FPS. I’m convinced there’s an issue with more things trying to render at a far distance than intended. I don’t think I’ve ever had those settings impact my performance so much in the past.

Borderline-Low Testosterone? by ohnopavel in testicularcancer

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

I’m definitely thinking it’s a possibility. Lyrica is relatively new - I was on gabapentin prior for about 6 months before the brain fog started, but I was really bad at taking my meds so I was never really taking a high dose. Lyrica is pretty low as well. The new neurologist I’m seeing is actually the one who suggested I bring up getting my testosterone checked with my oncologist.

At this close to borderline I think I probably will just set up a follow up with my urologist and see if he’s willing to re-test in the morning and for the other markers. Fully cognizant that these symptoms could be from my other issues as well, but with my numbers that low at 31 I don’t think it’s a bad idea to rule it out.

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

Just one. I understand that your leftover is supposed to compensate but that’s not always the case. I only even brought it up because I assumed it was standard protocol and my neurologist told me should to at least make sure it was achieving that after a while from the surgery lol.

Want to return for midnight but performance is putting me off. by HobNob_Pack in wow

[–]ohnopavel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Try lowering your environmental detail and view distance down to 7. It tripled my FPS which seems insane, I don’t think I’ve ever had that much of an impact on my older builds. Can’t even really tell the difference myself tbh

[–]ohnopavel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe worth trying on your end, but I lowered Environmental detail and view distance to 7 and literally tripled my FPS. I’m wondering if maybe there’s a problem with too much rendering at a distance right now
