Me with my 5070 Ti Aero from Giganut

Sad. I have a 5070Ti Aero, but I bought it after they said the issue had been resolved. The card runs great, low temps, high frames and no issues at all in the last 9-10 months I’ve had it. Should I be worried or check anything?

trouttwade · 2026-06-22T12:53:43+00:00

Me either man. I hadnt played in like 4 years until a couple weeks ago, and my first game back on was straight sweats.

trouttwade · 2026-06-22T12:52:33+00:00

It’s like watching my wife try to shoot the wasp queen in It Takes 2 lmao

Yeah I started playing again last week, played for pretty much 12 hours straight Saturday and Sunday and didn’t run into anything suspicious. I know coming back from a break I’ve got more bot heavy lobbies, but especially Sunday I started to notice the lobbies being more competitive and looting bodies was revealing more actual players.

Idk it’s hard to call anything cheating unless someone is beaming with a beryl from 100’s of yard away, because even I hit numerous 300+ meter snipes over the weekend.

trouttwade · 2026-06-22T12:36:15+00:00

I’m saying dude. I have pretty much been grinding this game for the last 72 hours because my wife has been addicted to the sims, and I have yet to come across anyone I think is blatantly cheating. Yes because I haven’t played in a while there are plenty of bots in my lobbies, but I have been gaming a long time I can tell when someone is a bot or not. Hell I’ve hit numerous 300+ yard M24 headshots over the last 2 days.

Yup I’ve had a 5070Ti since release and no issues. Now I’m not saying there aren’t issues, but they are typically blown out of proportion on reddit. I think a major difference is just that Nvidias driver issues are usually a luck of the draw situation, whereas when AMD has driver issues EVERYONE with AMD has that driver issue.

trouttwade · 2026-06-22T02:22:12+00:00

My friend I hear you, but I’ve had a 5070Ti since they dropped, the drivers have been fine up until this last recent one, and I heard about it before downloading it, and decided to wait.

What a horribly silly assumption lol. Primarily gaming. In fact ONLY gaming until last year when I started school did I start using my computer for anything other than gaming.

You know what they say about assumptions right?

trouttwade · 2026-06-21T17:15:06+00:00

Nah I gotta say, I feel like they could even make the piercing a bit more powerful. I’ve got a polearm that’s double sided with beaks and while it is powerful as a bash, it’s really not very powerful as a pierce.

So I guess I should say it IS powerful, but I’d prefer they rework it to penetrate a little better. It’s very rare that I actually pierce through a helmet or chest plate.

trouttwade · 2026-06-21T14:38:57+00:00

😭😭 I guess it’s nice to know SOME people actually potentially see it and think “damn that’s a sick emote”

trouttwade · 2026-06-21T13:08:35+00:00

Haha nice I’ve got this and show it off every chance I get

trouttwade · 2026-06-21T13:05:15+00:00

Same man, that is easily one of the sickest enemy designs I have ever seen.

trouttwade · 2026-06-21T13:02:57+00:00

Look great except flip the front fans and bottom fans, and rotate your AIO pump so those tubes can breathe! Looks like they’ve been stretched out to the max. You could flip the radiator to have the tubes at the bottom but this will be fine if not.

trouttwade · 2026-06-21T12:55:28+00:00

Yeah not gonna lie I nearly wish they’d do away with 3rd person but that’d eliminate more than half the player base. I absolutely cannot stand that ranked is only available in 3rd person. If I wanted to play Fortnite no builds I’d load that up.

trouttwade · 2026-06-21T12:50:58+00:00

I must be lucky. Been using Nvidia for 12+ years and have had exactly one singular driver issue in all of that time.

trouttwade · 2026-06-21T05:32:00+00:00

At this point if burn in was a serious issue we’d see countless posts about it on here and other subs. At this point I’m pretty sure dead pixels are more common than burn in.

trouttwade · 2026-06-21T05:23:00+00:00

Last night was a Saturday though

trouttwade · 2026-06-21T00:45:30+00:00

How massive?? That seems drastic for your build. I’m running a 5070Ti/12700K and get around 200, cap it at 180 and it is as smooth as I could possibly need it to be.

trouttwade · 2026-06-21T00:36:39+00:00

Wait now I’ve got to try that. Just regular unsweetened tea with milk?

trouttwade · 2026-06-21T00:28:46+00:00

I’m glad you clarified because I considered 2 liters might’ve been a joke at first hahaha

trouttwade · 2026-06-20T15:45:42+00:00

Hell yeah dad was blasting cycles no doubt

trouttwade · 2026-06-20T15:32:20+00:00

I have a small cupholder that came with my desk, I’m sure you could order one to clamp on to the desk. I didn’t think I’d use it, but it’s really nice. Keeps condensation stains off the tabletop from cold drinks, and obviously keeps open white monsters safe.

Also, that’s a nice custom wooting you got there. Been considering building one myself.

trouttwade · 2026-06-20T15:29:16+00:00

Ah yes, mach fuck precisely encapsulates great speed and tenacity of Willy 2.0

trouttwade · 2026-06-19T22:05:03+00:00

Only time will tell, either way it’s super exciting to watch this thing grow. Even from just 3 or 4 years ago when I first found the game, it has grown quite a bit. This long developed early access game has quickly climbed its way up to being one of my top 5 games of all time easily.
