frametiming is the biggest thing that contributes to irl sens feeling off. I would look @ benching the ram+cpu w/ something that allows you to figure out if its simply just more consistent or if its pulling a result that is out of norm for the combo.

it makes sense songs you can sing to are specifically played more but i was surprised at how my list turned out.
it'd be dope as fuck to meet with gamers at a euro festival tbh

specs? You can do some niche things depending on the components to crank out a few extra FPS

model o with a weird low dpi-like "hop" when at super slow speeds. Anyone else have an issue with that? 1.5ish @ 800dpi, I've changed up the sens/dpi and its still noticable in source games (only ones where ive bothered to check it). Completely unnoticeable when it comes to performing but it is kinda odd.

I cant speak for anyone else but the Iowa servers are a joy coming out of AZ, phx and glendale with cox. Getting stable 60-70ms vs 80-110 depending on the provider. Routing took a shit coming out of here once level3 acquired whatever around 2014-15?
Connecting to socal is roughly 60-70 still from my location and the old FP and TN servers in phx were 40-50 back when they were still relevant. Never tried a VPN in tf2 and hoping to be pleasantly surprised when I run into a SC server.

Ordered a custom AC+ pad. From what I understand its not crazy soft and doesnt have a lot of friction even when you push into it, can anyone confirm?

Experiences with hybrid/coated pads? Going to order one should the ac+ not work out and use it as a desk mat if thats the case.

check your ethernet/wifi adapter? No reason for something connection based to cause a game crash unless its shorting or throwing some type of error when used. Does your cpu fan/temps ramp up when doing something w/ constant updates or other games?

assist me friends..

Been looking to pick up a few sets of bookshelf speakers, or just satellites and spring for additional subs later for a setup that covers my whole apartment. I can stare at audioholics all day long about each speakers quirks but in the end I have no clue or need for the level of specificity they get into.

Thinking about Monoprice MP-65RT which seem to be pretty bang for the buck but i'm down to spend a little extra for better looks or a more complete range of sound than these purposely budget built ones.

Don't have any amps/switches yet, waiting till I can figure out what exact load i'll be putting on them. Aiming for 3 zones w/ 2.1.

honest question, I know doing pixel-perfect/optimal routes to make the xhair on target and look natural has been circumvented for a long ass time, but why are we only seeing the effects of it on the pistol? Is it just due to the firerate and that variable % aimlock/whatever?

tbh, if you cant hear fuck all go ahead and do it. It can't be stopped through plugins or sv pure.

You draw the line at what levels the playing field for you, if you choose to abuse it thats fair game.

edit: remedying starts with vpk tool and critical thinking skills. Look @ titanfall 2 for useful vpk modding advice.

stick to 4:3 and dont drop ur sens

your fov is smaller/narrower which is why it feels faster in the horizontal and if its 4:3 stretched it makes the enemy gamers look wider(I think shorter? technically). The only downside to 4:3 is that it is slowly being dropped as something natively supported by games.

in certain cases it feels better due to higher fps. Only FPS game i run 4:3 is CSGO due to the low enough dips/frame times and i found just ballparking the sens to what you feel is right was more of a placebo for aiming in there rather than doing sens calc 16:9 1 @ 800dpi -> 4:3 .7xxx depending on how i was feeling that day.

(wider ratios in general) buy you more viewable area but at the expense of lower FPS and more area to "monitor" while playing. I believe most recommend 1440p+ once you start pushing closer/past to 27in monitors.

Just use whichever you feel is better and would be better in the long run for your health. might be worth giving up the extra viewable area to enable you to sit a bit further back/ergonomically, which isn't really something most think about but can fuck you up should you sit for prolonged amounts daily outside of games. As a fucking DUMB example: I'm planning on going from a 24in 144hz benq xl2411 to a 22-23in 144+ w/better tech as I shift from grinding to just wanting to play for fun and want more space and better aesthetics.

i respect that
