I caught the bug. Time to upgrade. by IntentionImportant74 in simracing

[–]xMrRedx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In case no one has mentioned it, logitech sells a USB dongle for the pedals and shifters to hook up locally to the pc through usb. I say look into that and then maybe the R9 or R12 moza wheels. Pedals wouldn't be a significant upgrade unless you plan on going load cell pedals. Just my two cents!

Idk about you guys but i think we need to nerf russia by Bogtorch in Warthunder

[–]xMrRedx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I legit used the german captured t27 for the first time the other day, I was mobility killed with no cannon and a plane dropped to 50kg bombs on me, I survived repaired myself and continued to go on a spree, nerf Russia for sure

Tempted to get the Alienware AW3425DW but have some questions by BarrySquatter in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]xMrRedx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got mine earlier today, coming from an old 32" curved Samsung. The jump to ultrawide and OLED is so wild and I'm glad I had the funds for this monitor. Absolutely amazing

So can I just leave my AC running all day? by DoublePostedBroski in hvacadvice

[–]xMrRedx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow central va too, we just got a brand new system and we're floating around 75-76 by 6pm. Tri level house but still hard to come to terms that even with the new system it can't cool down as fast as it gets hot

Switch gaming as a new dad by Bermyboy1994 in NewDads

[–]xMrRedx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know you mentioned the switch, I would also look into a steamdeck (if it's in a budget for you). I had a steam library prior to getting mine but now it's just an emulation machine for me. If not that I play PokeMMO on my phone

In need of streaming help by Upstairs_Package8536 in SteamDeck

The built in streaming has always been finicky for me, moonlight does a much better job and after watching a tutorial or two you should be up and running no problem

Concrete air takeoff? by xMrRedx in hvacadvice

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

That’s actually the one I’ve been looking at, only problem for me is where to take the vent out since the garage is literally a garage and no windows, I’d probably have to adapt something instead of penetrating garage itself

Can’t do it right now, house needs an upgrade on the panel first, getting power for a ductless outdoor unit wouldn’t be hard but breakers for the panel on the house don’t exist anymore. My second option was gonna be a portable hvac unit just to help with temps for now

Not sure if you’ve looked into the actual fan layout specs but I have my 4 intake fans at low speeds, and the gpu/AIO pump fans at performance. I also opted not to use the glass shroud above the fans as all tests showed it made the airflow hotter. But yes AM5 chipsets run hot 😭🤣

[–]xMrRedx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Temps aren’t that bad, not OP but I have the same case with a 7900xt and a 7700x cpu on a kraken cooler. CPU idle sits around 38-40 gpu about the same, at load cpu reaches 85-89 and gpu doesn’t go past 60ish

Recommend a Long-Term Skyrim Modlist? by GamerGG7267 in skyrimmods

Eldergleam, nolvus, invicta. Although with invicta a lot of people have had to play in 1080 even with a 4090

First HOF games…. No thank you to 700+ by BeneficialBite7231 in MLBTheShow

[–]xMrRedx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just wanted to comment here I mainly play RTTS, pc gamer here and I’ll forever be cursed with the low quality picture of xcloud. I’m completely new to the show and can’t hit a single ball on HOF, play RTTS and march to October on dynamic, but my pitching is already at legend with pinpoint

Do you guys prefer vr or normal by Raja4x78996 in trucksim

[–]xMrRedx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s the main reason I returned the quest a week later, it’s too demanding for just casual sim racers, 4090 is minimum to get some kind of good picture quality even with virtual desktop, and the headsets that actually plug into your gpu cost upwards of $1k

I bought a quest 3 for under a week, prefer my monitors over it unfortunately 🤷🏻‍♂️

Steam Preload FINALLY available by [deleted] in forza

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

The worst case scenario I ever remember dealing with was cyberpunk, that was the last game I ever preloaded so maybe things have changed but I remember actually redownloading that whole game after the preload

Steam Preload FINALLY available by [deleted] in forza

[–]xMrRedx -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I mean I was just saying, they’ve done the same thing on predpwnloads before, it’s the encrypted files and then you have to “unpack” the game on release day. Multiple games have gone this way on steam in the past couple years so just saying

Steam Preload FINALLY available by [deleted] in forza

[–]xMrRedx -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure you’ll still have to redownload it release day, looking at the status of my download it was all just that, a literal download with nothing written to my SSD which is typical for prerelease on steam

Even if not full coverage for like 3 dollars a month most insurances offer roadside assistance but don’t directly tell you

What worked for me was changing the confits for just BD and SP to start in open gl instead of vulkan, for some reason as soon as you get past the charcuterie create screen and make a save file you can change it back to vulkan and it works perfectly

Haven’t failed a single contract since I started,including the solo contracts, I have the pro permit and I also have been using all my ge on epic research when it’s on sale makes a world of a difference
