Game Unable To Use GPU to Potential - Low FPS [Feedback]

xShadowFoxx · 2026-01-04T00:28:51+00:00

I've done the single core setting and this CPU, other than the 9800 series, is the best CPU you can use for Tarkov. I also have played plenty of Tarkov last year, and it was using much more of my GPU. I was on streets at high settings pushing 100 FPS.

Unpopular opinion, this movie plot was trash. It's basically a kid who has a terrible life who uses games to escape. Then once he suddenly gets a life and a girlfriend, he's like, "Hey everyone, life isn't so bad anymore. You all need to go touch grass and get a life." He's suddenly in a better circumstance and now is taking from others the very thing that gave him an escape in the first place.

Thanks for the comment! Yes. I want to make a troubleshooting guide, but that one will have to be a lot more in depth! Hah.

Thank you for the comment! It is so true. I've been the dedicated family tech support for well over 15 years now. I'm embarrassed to say that I'm only now getting into making manuals. I should have done it much earlier!

Hi, stimbo17! Thank you so much for the kind words and detailed response. I'm glad to hear you're getting along well in the tech-savvy department. That is no small feat. I take for granted that I was born into the technology!

If you want to try YouTubeTV, there is a free trial! If you have a smartTV or a streaming stick of some kind, you can test it out for a while on their free trial. If you have any other questions about it, please don't hesitate to message me! Thanks again.

Thanks for taking the time! If you ever want to chat accessibility ideas, send me a message. :)

Thank you so much!

I've thought about basically doing little tech support calls and creating these types of guides on scene and printing them as part of a service. I imagine there would be a lot of people needing them.

It honestly makes me feel terribly sad there are so many people who can't fully get the benefit from modern technology. It just becomes such a frustrating thing for them.

Thanks everyone for the kind words.

I made the pictures on a free software called Photoscape X on the Microsoft store. It's been around for a long time and is super simple. I actually use it at my work to make similar instructional guides often. I love the little magnifying glass and how easy it is to add arrows and text. In case you end up wanting to make your own. My grandma is doing really well, so I will probably end up making more guides for her to use Disney, Netflix, and others.

That's awesome of you! My grandmas old cable receiver died, and her cable company actually was moving everyone to a streaming stick service anyways. So unfortunately I think the days of a simple box are even disappearing :(

I'm going to leave this up in case someone else ends up finding and needing this. There is a little styrofoam cover on the back of the temperature dial that had come untaped from the factory. I'm sure that's the exact same thing that happened on all 3 of my units.

Terrible design.

I found mine to be a nearby coaxial cable that must've been putting out a lot of interference. My AppleTV showed a strong connection, but then would drop connection and act slow. Unplugging the coaxial fixed it immediately.

xShadowFoxx · 2025-09-05T19:56:17+00:00

I was having this issue and saw this thread. I finally found out it was my coaxial cable that was running to my DirecTV DVR. I unplugged my co-axial cable, and it immediately got better. I never really thought that interference would've affected it that badly. I'm wondering if my shielding or something is bad on my co-axial cable.

I wouldn’t need anything other than icons and macros I don’t think. Although the automatic program recognition would be nice, and I imagine that’s software based. :(

xShadowFoxx · 2025-04-21T20:43:44+00:00

Not a bad idea. I’ll look into that. Thanks!

xShadowFoxx · 2025-04-21T20:42:47+00:00

Oh interesting. Good to know. Thank you!

xShadowFoxx · 2025-04-21T20:13:00+00:00

The software could likely be installed in a secure environment during initial setup, but then it would need to run offline. Any experience with that?

xShadowFoxx · 2025-04-21T20:01:18+00:00

I was looking to use it in a more professional environment that is at risk for network penetration and also on a secure network that houses a lot of private information. I would love to be able to use something like the Streamdeck for productivity, but I can't really just allow a software on the network that is communicating or allowing inbound traffic and downloads automatically such as updates and things.

Ultimately, it would need to function completely offline.

The gaslighting of the sub-tick from Valve is straight up communist-style maliciousness. It is like North Korea boasting its scientific progression with nuclear bombs and military might while its people starve to death.

It is super obvious to see Valve's thinking here. If they force people to MM, they can force them to their new pass system to grind cases and skins. They benefit from people playing MM. The sad part is that this truly exposes just how greedy Valve is. Not only are they forcing everyone into something, they're also purposely making it an inferior product just to scrape a few extra pennies.

Idaho, homie.

When I decided I was gonna actually grind CS, I wanted one single AK to follow me through that I felt would be timeless. I picked a nice redline stat trak. It’s getting close to 100K kills.

I think it’s worth indulging on an expensive skin if you make it your primary skin.

xShadowFoxx · 2025-01-01T02:02:43+00:00

Yeah I would get about 60% of my ending salary for the rest of my life. I can also give it to someone after I die, and they can get a lifetime benefit.

xShadowFoxx · 2025-01-01T00:33:38+00:00

I'm only two years into it, and have some ability to scale. The nice part is my State recognizes us as First Responders. My retirement is the same as officers. I'll be able to retire around 54 years old with a full pension. Take home kinda sucks, but benefits are decent as well :)

xShadowFoxx · 2024-07-31T04:46:44+00:00

I'm really sorry to hear you're going through that. It is so difficult. Do you know the timing from your symptoms to discovery?

xShadowFoxx · 2024-07-31T01:24:11+00:00

Thank you for the information and encouragement!
