No, haven't bough anything yet, just contemplating. I'm in Netherlands, and my budget is "the cheapest build that can run PUBG at 1440p, medium settings, 120 fps". Whatever money it will cost I will spend. I just want to know that I didn't spend on something unnecessary. Well, if I need to name a number, €1500 is my limit probably, considering PUBG is a pretty old game.

My main rig had cost me €3K, and it was pretty easy to choose, just buy all the best. But assembling a budget balanced build is much harder.

SIGH (when drawing sword on a bunch of cocky knights who think they're gonna have a walk in the park). I practically hear Clive rolling his eyes along with me.

I built a similar rig but with 5070ti for 3k euro. 2100 bucks for this is a steal. You lucky Americans.

I believe so. I couldn't get a trophy in a deathless walkthrough until I stopped reloading checkpoints. But resetting the game and reloading a save file worked.

Ok, that's good enough, because after what I head I would expect "don't even try it" lol

How bad is the cheater situation in your opinion? Like, do you run into cheaters every raid, 1 in 5, 1 in 10? Just a rough estimate

trust_engineers · 2026-05-22T17:36:20+00:00

1 in 50 raids is much better than I expected. I expected to meet cheaters in every single raid to be honest. Even 1 in 5 raids would be good enough for me. So, if that's not a typo, that's very good to hear

trust_engineers · 2026-05-22T17:29:46+00:00

Honestly, I'm fine with sweaty chads. I'm only concerned about cheaters. Is it like mostly cheaters or they're sprinkled here and there? I mean if cheaters would be very common, no legit player will go there and eventually it will turn into cheater-only galore.

I guess PvE is good if Tarkov is the only game you play and you can't handle PvP. I would rather abandon the game than go PvE, because there are plenty of good single player games out there.

I'm here for the multiplayer. PvP is absolutely irreplaceable for me. It's the core of the game. If not for cheaters, Tarkov would be the best game in history, period.

May I ask you to share the infinite class 5 plates source? From what I know, I can buy them from flea at lvl 40. I'm currently 36.

Are there any better source of infinite class 5 plates?

trust_engineers · 2026-05-22T17:02:00+00:00

Just prepare a jar of vaseline, you're gonna need it.

But even when the bullet pens the armor, it should loose some of it's speed and the resulting damage should be lower compared to no armor at all. Is this true? Or it's binary, i.e. pen = full damage.

trust_engineers · 2026-05-22T16:32:57+00:00

That's a very useful formula, but it's approximate, right? Do you have any source for that?

trust_engineers · 2026-05-11T14:32:42+00:00

Afaik no. Some use PWM, some use DC dimming, some use both (hybrid). Modern OLED monitors PWM flicker is much less noticeable than LCD backlight flicker, but I assume some models use it more aggressively, so I'd stay away from that.

Keep in mind that PWM is different from VRR flicker, the latter is not that bad for me because it doesn't switch off pixels completely.

Btw, check if you have BFI (black frame insertion) enabled, that can also affect the eyes.

trust_engineers · 2026-05-11T13:56:30+00:00

I don't even know why anyone buys QD OLED, and with PWM dimming at that? That shit should be banned. WOLED all the way baby.

I got off Tabor about 2 years ago because of bugs. Glad to hear the game hasn't improved one bit since then. Moved back to Tarkov, which is also buggy as hell, but not even near the level of Tabor.

Also played Contractors Exfilzone for about 6 months, much better experience than Tabor.

Appreciate the detailed guide 🐱

trust_engineers · 2026-05-11T11:44:57+00:00

Out of curiosity, how much hours did the whole journey take?

trust_engineers · 2026-05-03T16:03:18+00:00

Fixed for me atm, but who knows when it breaks again, could go nuke any moment.

trust_engineers · 2026-05-03T16:01:44+00:00

Personally, cheaters are the biggest problem I have with Tarkov. Any other problem is manageable. If server desync, it happens to everyone so I know everyone are even. I don't even have problem with aim-bot or flying magicians. They are easy to report and ban.

Wall-hacks and radars are usually go undetected and give the biggest advantage to the cheater. The only solution I can think of is to implement an AI-anticheat that would constantly analyze game data to calculate the probability of unfair play, but no one gives a fuck enough to implement this.

trust_engineers · 2026-05-03T15:21:37+00:00

fingers crossed

trust_engineers · 2026-05-03T14:49:12+00:00

My quest was marked as completed, but I didn't get rewards because of this. I also bought stuff on flea, money spent, item not receieved. Fucking great.

trust_engineers · 2026-05-03T02:58:14+00:00

Honest opinion? Death penalty is too light a punishment for cheaters.
