#35 Comp.tf - A competitive tf2 wiki? in Projects

This should really be done in someway on THIS site. The purpose of this site was supposed to reduce the amount of spinoff/branch websites on competitive TF2. TFTV is supposed to be the center of everything competitive TF2.

A website/wiki like this has already been done more than once before and it doesn't help that they're all spread across the web.

#9 Probably a retarded question in Hardware
TwilitlordI just finished building my brother a new PC, with an AMD FX-6300. The only time you'll use them is when you get graphics drivers; install your LAN/Wifi drivers from the disk that comes with your motherboard and download the latest driver package from your card's site (don't bother with the disk that comes with your card, those drivers are generally outdated). Once you download and install those, restart your PC and the discrete card will automatically override the integrated.

This isn't what actually happens. If you have your dedicated graphics card installed and plugged into your monitor, Windows will temporarily use generic drivers to get your GPU running semi-properly.

The integrated GPU doesn't come into play at all unless you plug your monitor into your motherboard and don't use a dedicated graphics card.

#22 Fail at 120hz in Hardware
AeonsIt says 144hz on my Nvidia control panel and on my Display Advanced Settings. And I do notice on my desktop the difference between 60hz and 144hz by moving my mouse.

What's weird is that it just doesn't seem to translate to in-game. At first I thought that I was just being blind, but now that I found out that lightboost isn't working in TF2 either, I'm thinking maybe something might be changing my settings in TF2 when I open it? I have -refresh 144 and I tried -freq 144 and -freq 120 as well. My frames are well above what's needed to notice the difference (range of 150-400 fps). Maybe I just don't notice it as much because I twitch aim a good deal as scout? Not sure haha.

If anyone can figure out a fix for this (or somehow show me that my game is in fact running at 144hz for sure and my eyes are just awful), then I'd gladly give him/her some keys for the trouble! I just want to make sure that my monitor isn't going to waste haha.

Open the OSD menu while you're playing in game. Go to System Setup and then Information. Your actual refresh rate should be under your current resolution on the right.

#17 Fail at 120hz in Hardware
AeonsI used the ToastyX CRU method which supposedly doesn't require Ctrl + T

I'm doing the same thing and I didn't have any problems with lightboost while I tried it out.

#15 Fail at 120hz in Hardware
AeonsI just enabled lightboost and I noticed something interesting. My computer is in 3D mode with lightboost as an option when I'm on my desktop. However, when I go into TF2, the monitor OSD doesn't show it as being in 3D mode with lightboost enabled. Is this normal or is this an indication that TF2 isn't using the proper monitor settings for some reason?

I think you used the method that requires you to press, I think, Ctrl+T to turn it on in-game.

#18 Razer Surround in Hardware
frknconductor2 driver headphones with a not shitty soundstage can produce positional effects just fine

But that audio was created to sound 3D. The goal of virtual surround is to make what would be regular audio sound like that video does.

game developers could implement it directly into games if they wanted to, which would render this useless. The problem is, they haven't.

That's not how it works for Dolby surround and my G35's. It simulates a 7.1 channel sound system and plays sounds through what ever channels they would play if a true 7.1 setup was present.

The only way audio sources with less channels get up-scaled to 7.1 is if you use Windows's speaker fill enhancement.

You cannot fit TF2 on a 32GB drive. Don't try. TF2 is the only game on my 64GB and I only have 8.5GB left.

#9 RAM upgrade advice pls in Hardware

Higher frequencies with lower CAS Latencies are best but the 2 are directly proportional in most RAM kits. It doesn't really matter though. G.Skill is a solid choice.

gr8stalinThere's no such thing as a gaming laptop despite what idiots, Dell, and Razer want you to believe (with the latter two cashing in on the former).

This is like saying there's no such thing as a gaming computer. There's a big difference between laptops that do and don't have dedicated GPU's.

#14 Opinions on Lightboost mod in Hardware
MaRKyBoXDrewOne of the bigger downsides to Lightboost is that I can't adjust my color settings in game which leaves a very noticeable purple/blue hue on everything.Adjust color via nVidia Control Panel, or use NCX's .icc file. Use cpkeeper to force the colors into Team Fortress 2, and viola -- the purple tint is gone! Or just get the BENQ XL2720T or ASUS VG278H, which doesn't have VG248QE's purple tint issue.

Tried cpkeeper and it doesn't work. The profiles still don't apply to TF2.
