#16 TF2 running terribly on new system? in Hardware
FoxSetsulWindows 10 can do weird things.

Maybe your capture card is shit. (Hint: all capture cards are shit)

Very good choice of thermal paste, it's worse than the one the NH-U12S comes with. Wouldn't want the CPU to run too cool.

I also congratulate you on overclocking a CPU that runs at 4.2 GHz to 4.2 GHz.
geez

i'm not running tf2 through my capture card, it's for ps4/iOS capturing, i didn't even know the noctua paste came with the fan tbh

the cpu is at base at 4.0, i don't ever overclock things and i upped the voltage so it stays at 4.2? i don't understand why your post is so antagonistic towards me lol

Your CPU has a baseclock of 100MHz and a base multiplier of 40, resulting in 4.0GHz. When your CPU is put under load, it will turbo to 4.2GHz, out of the box. On Skylake, you can make this turbo number go up higher by increasing the boost multiplier. If you just increase the voltage without doing anything else, you're literally just making your CPU run hotter. The only reason you increase the voltage is that when you raise the boost multiplier above stock(42, for a turbo boosted clock of 4.2GHz), your processor will start producing errors because the tiny parts in it won't switch on/off fast enough before the next cycle.

Think of it as a car assembly line where the parts aren't fed to the robots quick enough, and some parts will still be missing before the car automatically moves on to the next station. You'll have to make the feed lines run quicker to keep up or you'll end up with a mess of a car at the end. Want to make cars quicker(higher clock speed)? You need more parts faster(higher voltage). If you ask too much of your assembly feed lines, parts will fly off and damage your factory(overheating of the CPU).

So what you should be doing is raising the boost multiplier and then gradually giving the CPU more voltage if it doesn't run stabile. Raising the voltage alone is useless because your CPU is already running at 4.2GHz whenever necessary, temperatures permitting. Look up a Skylake overclocking guide before you do this.

#11 Some TF2 items irl in Off Topic

For those of you who don't know, most of the TF2 weapons which aren't fantasy weapons are based on a specific historical weapon, sometimes interwoven with a pun. Operation Market Garden was a (somewhat failed) attempt during WW2 to occupy a bunch of strategic locations like bridges, mostly in the Netherlands, in order to largely set up an allied victory before winter would set in. It involved a before unseen number of airborne forces. The thing itself is modelled after an M1943 entrenching tool, standard issue for American airborne forces.

The Ullapool Caber is modelled after an M24 Stielhand and the name is a reference to Ullapool, a city in the north-west of Scotland, and a caber, which is a huge pole that's tossed(no pun intended) in a traditional Scottish sports event.

And one more example, the Black Box is modelled after the M202 FLASH. "Black box" is also a term for an object of which the effects are commonly known, but the inner workings of which are known only to one specific group or person.

#3 Question about resubmit cabinets in Q/A Help

Dear sir/madam,

The abbreviation "resup" is short for "resupply" and therefore spelt with a letter P at the end.

Yours,

#26 Big Difference between 60hz and 144hz? in Hardware
w#20 will sens look/feel the same if fps is played on its equivalent refresh rate?

ie.
120 fps on 120hz
144 fps on 144hz

im asking bc i feel like its easier snapping onto target with fps_max 132 than fps_max 289 on a 60hz even though im using the same inches/360. can someone explain this phenomenon

will buying a 144hz for fps_max 289 give me that same target snapping but better

The video boneyard posted explains it perfectly. Every time you get a series of wildly-varying-in-freshness frames it will feel like a stutter, however small it may be. Your brain will try to compensate your motion to match your monitor every time and this will make your sensitivity feel lower, because you're reinitiating the movement over and over again to some extent.

@Enigma
Have you had an opportunity to try one of the upcoming native 240Hz panels?

#20 Big Difference between 60hz and 144hz? in Hardware
wwonderlandwi have another question (dont wanna make another thread). i recently changed from fps_max 132 to fps_max 289 and i felt a difference in sensitivity between 132 and 289. is there a physical difference in terms of actual inches/360 when going from degree a to degree b or does it only make it feel "smooth" when tracking between prevoiusly said degrees

raw input is on and i use a 60hz

it will just be more responsive. which may make it feel like a slightly higher sensitivity.
there will not be any physical difference in inches per 360 (unless the game has some really shitty code which is not the case for tf2 unless you use mouse accel)

also hz*2+1 is bullshit.
if you understand how the game interacts with your video card/monitor 289 is just another fps setting, no better than say 300.

so i guess it feels faster bc my mouse is gliding in-between more of those frames?

i just went out and bought a measuring tape and actual inches/360 is the same SeemsGood

Think of it like this:
If you get a new frame every millisecond and your monitor refreshes once every 5 milliseconds, you will only be off by 1/5th of the refresh period at most to what's actually the current game situation. If you get a new frame every 5 milliseconds, you might sometimes get a frame which is 4.9 milliseconds old, or 3, or 2, or 1, because the rendering of a frame by your GPU doesn't always happen at the same time as when your monitor refreshes the frame and not every frame takes an equal time to render. The more FPS, the smaller this variation can be and therefore the less stuttery the motion on your screen will be. This makes your sensitivity feel higher because you're seeing the movement of your mouse earlier on average.

Lower this to 1500 and see if that helps.

EnterimdamneasyOnly in NA...your country has a fucking blackface christmas tradition, don't try to lecture about how anti-blackness is a strictly US phenomenon

Yeah, you clearly know what you're on about. Just like those people in the Netherlands who feel like it's okay to "protest" at a festive parade meant for children ages ~3-10, causing as much police to have to be present at those parades as at a high-risk football game between two clubs who hate each other's guts. The end justifies the means right? That is some real social progress we're making right there.

As DamnEasy said, it's only the adults who see this and scream racism; children don't see it like that. So actually you're the one who's racist because the only thing you noticed is that someone's skin was coloured black and didn't investigate past that fact. Things like what you said keep reminding new generations of children that black and white people are inherently different by constantly drawing attention to it even when it's not needed, however positively it was intended on your part. You already don't want to be a racist, you've done your job. Don't go overboard; that is how extremism is born and it's been humanity's biggest problem since we became sedentary and with that took our place at the top of the food chain.

#15 Nintendo Switch in Off Topic

I predict that/those controller(s) is/are going to give you hand- and wrist-AIDS within the hour, especially with the heavy console attached. That being said, it looks a lot more interesting than any other console of the past few years if the battery and hardware are decent.

#3 TF.TV Quake/CPMA Group Revival in Other Games
qsvuiwhats the difference between cpma and ql? i have only played q3 a long time ago.

Mainly air control, weapon switch speeds and some slight alterations to the damage of some weapons(if that is still a thing).

Starkiedrackk threw up in amsterdam after eating loads of stroopwafels

Real talk; I can't even smell a stroopwafel without feeling sick anymore. I had too many once as a child and it's one of those sweet things like fudge or other foods with caramel which just make you feel sick-by-recollection if you overate on them once. Like if you had rotten seafood you can't stand the smell of that particular seafood for a few years.

#56 The State of TF2, Post-Valve Meetings in TF2 General Discussion
If you consider that there’s 155 weapons in the game (not including reskins of existing weapons), it’s crazy to think that about 40% of TF2’s weapons were removed from competitive play.

Fixed that for you.
