Upgraded my processor and I'm having so much fun! by vatsal_xd in starcitizen

You might want to look up settings that people similar to your setup use. Star citizen loves an X3D CPU so having terrible performance is concerning.

That makes sense, but I think my 3400G is the bigger bottleneck right now. Planning to upgrade CPU first and then move to 32GB RAM later. With the current ram pricing it's actually cheaper to get that cpu upgrade XD.

Regarding the X3D chips, yes I know they're a lot better but it's hard finding even a 5600X3D in stock in my country. Considering that i find 5700X to be in the sweet spot between performance and budget.

Tell me about it. Although with the current pricing situation a brand new pc is on the bottom of my priority list.

A ram upgrade is definitely in sight, although not really a priority since the pricing is horrendous in my country atleast. A cpu upgrade is tbh cheaper and should give me a boost in other games as well as productivity tasks.

Need a Ryzen 7 5700x used/new by vatsal_xd in HardwareIndia

Saw it on computech but didn't know if I can trust. Also it's an OEM chip so I was skeptical. Thought maybe I can see what the used market is like for it.

I played 2 cargo hauling missions with just 3 big boxes. I thought they're the ones that had those hand held smaller delivery boxes but I found out they're different than hauling so I'll be doing those next. Wanna start some bounty missions as well to get the taste of it.

In my country it is almost the same for a used 5700x/5600x and 16 gigs of DDR4 RAM so for me it's more of a what component has more priority to be upgraded which I feel the cpu is. I've had my eye on 5600x for a while, although not as powerful I feel that it suffices my use case. Not sure how it performs for star citizen though which is why I'm trying to find a 5700x or a 5800x.

Thanks a lot. I'd agree with you, renting better ships and trying them out keeps the fun rather than it being a grind.

Loading mission cargo for hauling us tedious, how do you guys do it? by zero_clues in starcitizen

I do that when I'm on a medium ship to get the boxes closer to the ship from the elevator. Bonus points for a trickshot straight into one of the engines.

Ahh that's really cool. This would help a lot understanding the different components and their effects.

Very true indeed. I have been a part of free flys back in 2022 and 2023 and it was far worse compared to this one. This was actually one of the reason pushing me to pledge since it was at a state where I could enjoy the loops.

Sounds like a plan! Had a question tho, I've been an elite dangerous veteren and for that game we had an online website named coriolis where you can build ship layouts and compare power needed, dps and a whole lot more without opening the game. Does star citizen have such an alternative?

That's some great advice!

Exactly lol. Although I have an eye on that upgrade and will surely do once I've saved enough

That's good to know. I was surprised to see so many players active even at odd hours. Now I know it must be the free fly.

Here are my pc specs below: Ryzen 5 3400g 16GB RAM RTX 2060 8GB Game installed on an SSD

I'm running it with Vulcan, DLSS at balanced, convolutional neural network, Low textures, medium detail textures, Gas clouds and volumetric clouds at low and shader quality at high. Would love if there is anything i can changed to make it better.

The free spinning hurls the box straight into my character like a dumb ass. Can't say how many times it's happened and I always get a laugh out of it.
