#3948 PC Build Thread in Hardware

#3947 shit i didnt read straight your sentence about cyberpunk projected fps. my bad.

#3946 fair points that add up to a reasonable price, (more reasonable than spending 60 eur on a 3770k alone lol) thanks. Does ddr4 3200 matter compared to ddr4 2666?

I mean you could also overclock with increased voltage?

The last time i checked overclocking I thought increased voltage reduced lifespan of the chip. Not sure how much I gain between stock voltage oc and vcore oc to figure out if it's worth it.

not sure which Hitman

Sorry. I have these 2 https://store.steampowered.com/app/236870/HITMAN/ https://store.steampowered.com/app/863550/HITMAN_2/

just looking at Cyberpunk 2077 benchmarks it's not happening.

ok. Is this game the most demanding of the last couple of years on the CPU? I could live without it if that's an outlier like supreme commander once was.

I checked https://www.tomshardware.com/news/cyberpunk-2077-cpu-scaling-benchmarks
and there's basically no difference from 1080p Ultra to 1080p Medium if you're cpu-limited.

The way I read it (pls correct me):

  • Cyberpunk seems to be one of the if not the hardest title on cpu at the moment
  • i7 3770k is 20% slower than i3 9100 which would translate to ~40FPS in cyberpunk(?), not great but not unplayable either if that's only this game that demands this much.

#3943 PC Build Thread in Hardware

Hi Setsul guys,

I have an i5 2500k (never overclocked) with 32gb (salvaged) ddr3 and a gtx 1060.
Besides TF2 I sometimes play more recent titles like hitman, dying light, or cyberpunk. I use 1080p.
I aim at 100fps in ..fps, and 60 for the rest.
Even TF2 is not always stable at 120+fps when the browser runs on the second screen.
I have no plans to bin the whole PC and I'm looking at upgrades to keep gaming on w10 for another 3-5 years.

The options I think I have:
- overclock without increasing voltage (i have a decent aircooler)
- upgrade to i7 3770k/2600k
- upgrade to i7 3770k/2600k then overclock those

I have a hard time finding recent reliable benchmarks of those CPUs especially in recent games that use more threads. I don't feel I can trust gpucheck/cpu monkey types of benchmarks and would be grateful to receive some advice.

Then depending on how that goes I may later on buy a more recent gpu like a 3060 or rx 7600, no real idea yet and open to advice.

cheers

#22 How many tries in Off Topic

With sound, demo on process, I rollout sewers, trap the door, and kill the enemy roamer

#8 What do you consider your greatest success? in Off Topic

in tf2: learning that it's okay to lose, casting on tftv, overcoming my mental block to do the process rollout and soon having my 4 tftv stars

outside of tf2: i'm still alive, in decent health and with a decent job I guess

#25 [shounic]TF2 but without the sniper in TF2 General Discussion
MiG-21bisTwiggyyour argument could also apply to the engineer and with that logic you quickly remove more classes than just the sniperThe "slippery slope" fallacy just does not make sense here. Engineer is and will never be as strong as sniper is except in very specific situations and is actually counterable by other classes.

my point was more like why would the devs make what enzo called a "fast paced shooter" and then include a dude who places automated stationary guns in it?

but anyway back to the topic:
in starcraft maps are often balanced by making some terrain unbuildable.
in TF2 the original intent seemed to be to force close quarters fighting.
But what if there was an other way using vscript SecondaryAttack() to make the sniper not able to scope ? or use BleedPlayer() in combination with whatever can replace a weapon (the cozy camper) ? Both these techniques could be used to arbitrarily remove sightlines and AFAIK would not require server plugins.

EoNvaccinator

it's allowed in hl yet very rarely used though.

EnzoDBthink about it though, someone during development, of this fast paced movement based class shooter, thought it a good idea to keep a class that has limited movement options, and can be most effective in open areas with long sightlines, which ruins the same areas where fun fights in the game can be had, and no one else thought to delete him.

your argument could also apply to the engineer and with that logic you quickly remove more classes than just the sniper

Wild_RumpusTwiggyfor me the biggest impact removing the sniper could have would be the freedom given to map makersmappers could do so much cool shit with vision and spotting but unfortunately there a class where vision = death so they just cant

there are so many weapons revolving around countering stickies or projectiles but nothing to manipulate vision :/

#6 [shounic]TF2 but without the sniper in TF2 General Discussion

for me the biggest impact removing the sniper could have would be the freedom given to map makers

crackbabydumpsteri find it weird he said it "didn't change much" when it very clearly did change the way teamfights were being taken which seems pretty major to me. i guess he discounts it because stats remained similar and people didn't say it felt really different

looked to me like the feedback at the end pointed to players feeling freer too.

Richarrrrdthis channel is the ultimate proof that whatever you say can be as asinine as you can make it but people will listen to you and take you seriously as long as you know how to use aftereffects

"yeah in less than a hundred pub games with wildly different skill levels i have deduced that people push chokes more aggro without a class that serves to lock down chokes but nothing else really changed except for that. btw did you know that sniper has the longest kill range?" bravo

you're not wrong on the form but I found it a good opportunity to start a fun 'what if..' thread

TobI cultivate carnivorous plants

how useful are those against mosquitoes?

To answer the topic, I like to read, wrench on stuff/get new tools, and build/paint warhammer miniatures

#17 rahThread: EU Freshmeat cup feedback in TF2 General Discussion
DCSOn the other hand I imagine there would be much less people willing to buddy / mentor a team if they couldn't participate.

that's a question worth surveying tbh. I feel like post coach kaidus, no delay streaming and tools like discord like Tob said much more people would find this fun
