Hi mastercoms, I'm trying to customize my config as I use multiple PCs, so I would like to have every option that I use all in this one config, rather than enabling anything from the options menu but I have a few questions which I can't find the answer to in your docs:

Whats the command to hide the vote kick menu after voting? With all of the bots on casual, this UI is on my screen 90% of the time.

Whats the command to show the item colors in the backpack? From your docs it should be cl_showbackpackrarities 1 but it doesn't work in my autoexec (but I know my autoexec works because i tested it).

I have a lot of commands in my tf/cfg/overrides folder (the essentials like fast weapon switch, auto heal etc along with the personal preference stuff and all my weapon scripts, sens so on so on) which is starting to feel like a second comfig. Once I figure out the commands for everything, Can i turn this into a VPK like the custom folder? Or if not, is it worth me extracting your config, putting all my stuff in there, and making it one big vpk? Yes this will make updates harder but VPKs are more beneficial yes?

Nah I meant like this monitor has Display Port 1.2 and HDMI 1.4, whereas some newer, more expensive monitors have HDMI 2.0 and Display Port 1.4, and was wondering if that was worth the price to invest in newer technology.

Regardless though, I went out and bought this monitor today, and so far so good. The colours were a little funky and very dark compared to my old monitor, but I've calibrated them to my liking now. Would recommend to those also looking for a budget 144hz 1080p monitor.

Thanks, I also came across this one while reading reviews, so I'll probably be going for this one.

Would it be worth spending more for Display Port 1.4 and HDMI 2.0, or is DP1.2 / HDMI 1.4 still perfectly fine?

My current monitor Benq XL2411 has HDMI, DVI-D and D-Sub. I was connected to my GTX 1070 by DVI-D @144hz.

I bought a RTX 3070 without checking what ports it had, and it has either Display Port or HDMI. So right now I can only connect to it via HDMI @60hz.

I've heard the Display Port to DVI adapters aren't great, and quite pricey, so my only option seems to be to buy a new monitor with Display Port.

Apologies for reviving this thread, but what's the current go-to monitor for gaming @144hz?

CPU and overclock: 5600x (no overclock yet)
Graphics Card: GeForce GTX 1070

Just updating that I finally built my PC over the weekend, and it works great. The 5600x is averaging about 40C at idle, and 70-80C in-game on the stock cooler and balanced power plan. I'll see if I can get any good deals on coolers for Black Friday, if not, then I'll save my money for upgrading my 1070. Thank you again for all your help.

Thank you Setsul that was really helpful.

If I was to go down the AMD route, do you see any issues with the following components (as well as my existing ones):

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600X 3.7 GHz 6-Core Processor ($469.00 @ Computer Alliance)
Motherboard: Gigabyte X570 AORUS ELITE WIFI ATX AM4 Motherboard ($309.10 @ Newegg Australia)
Memory: Crucial Ballistix 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3600 CL16 Memory ($122.10 @ Newegg Australia)
Total: $900.20

I figured I can try the cooler that comes in the box and if temps are no good, I'll grab the Noctua one.

My understanding isn't great, but from what I read, I thought I would need either an older gen CPU to first boot and update the bios, then switch it out for the new CPU, or get the computer shop to do it for me. Guess I needed to read into this a little more.

I just chose an AIO cooler as my H60 has given me temps at roughly 20-30C at idle, and 40-50C in-game for the past 7 years. Would the NH-D15 from your post give me these temps still, even while overclocking? Seems like it's the exact same price here in AUS as the H100x one I linked above, plus if it's quieter, and most likely easier to install, I'll go with that.

Yes I'd like my motherboard to have WIFI capabilities, as my living situation is likely to change in the coming months. I've seen both the ASUS and MSI ones for similar prices, but just went with the Gigabyte one as I had no issues with my current Gigabyte one. Let me know if you think they are better alternatives.

I'm sorry but I'm going to need your help with the RAM. I don't really understand what I'm looking for.

So far that leaves me with this:
CPU: Intel Core i5-10600KF 4.1 GHz 6-Core Processor ($359.00 @ Centre Com)
CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-D15 82.5 CFM CPU Cooler ($143.00 @ Newegg Australia)
Motherboard: Gigabyte Z490 AORUS ELITE AC ATX LGA1200 Motherboard ($329.00 @ Umart)
Total: $831.00

Hi, I would like to upgrade my current PC which has served me well these past 7 years.

My current PC contains (roughly) this:

I am planning on upgrading the CPU, Mobo, RAM and Cooling and came up with this:
https://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/nN9xcT

No budget at this stage, I'm just looking for quality parts, good warranties, and ease of install. I will be updating the GPU later on down the track. This PC will be used primarily for gaming (so should I go for the 10600K instead?). I realise these new AMD CPUs may be better, but I'm hearing people having issues with updating the BIOS, so I don't mind going with Intel to avoid that.

Any issues / suggestions / comments are appreciated, but keep in mind that I don't really know what I'm doing. Thanks.

Hi all,

While everyone's stocking up on face masks and toilet paper, I'm doing the sensible thing and purchasing a new gaming PC to wait out the 14 day quarantine period if/when it happens.

My budget is preferably <$2500 AUD, with a max at <$3000 if need be.

Do you guys see any red flags with the below:

My plan is to still keep the GTX 1070 from my current PC, and upgrade at a later time if need be. I also plan to switch the power supply to the Corsair one with a 10 year warranty - as my power supply has died on both my previous builds.

My second option is to just go big with this one, (again, keeping my 1070, possibly lowering the RAM down to 16GB, plus ditching the fancy lighting to bring it roughly to the 3k mark, which was the upper end of my limit.

I use my PC daily, and will be planning on playing Doom Eternal and Cyberpunk when they release, plus TF2 on the side. My current PC is from 2015 (i7 4820k, OC'd to 4.3GHz) and have only upgraded the GPU in that time (GTX 760 - 1070). I'm still reasonably happy with how it runs, but think its time for a nice upgrade anyway.

So basically my questions are:
- Any red flags / improvements on the above builds?
- Is the i9 worth the price over the i7?
- I've been seeing replies of people suggesting the 3200MHz RAM, should I upgrade from the 3000MHz in these builds?
- Are these new GPU's worth the hype? I have been able to play all my games on MED-HIGH on my 1070, and am happy with the performance so far.

Thanks all.

Does this work in sv_pure servers?

Does this disable the "you will be autobalanced in X seconds" message on pubs?

I still have the old one if that makes your life any easier?

2018 version here

I may have modified it a little though so I can still keep hats, but everything else is untouched.

Ohh I see.

Try this.

What sort of pipes are missing? Let me know what map (and a screenshot if possible) and I'll see if I can fix it.
