Rio#1000: 730 has better driver support, uses less power, and probably similar raw performance
Rio#1000: 5770 got abandoned a few years ago TheFifthAce#4128: 5770 smashes 730 on paper though TheFifthAce#4128: http://prntscr.com/mkur3z Rio#1000: amyays, brb s w a g#8302: loooo l s w a g#8302: in literal raw specs maybe s w a g#8302: $40 can get you a 7850 Rio#1000: overclocked 730 vs 5770 https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/545461234745737216/Screenshot_20190214-152749_Edge.jpg Rio#1000: and if you leave a 730 stock you're a tard TheFifthAce#4128: @Rio but thats a stock 5770 isnt it Rio#1000: no Rio#1000: stock its 850mhz Rio#1000: and 100mhz is about all you can get from terascale Rio#1000: and if you want an idea of how unsupported the 5770 is Rio#1000: fortnite wont launch on the newest drivers, battleye blocks them

TheGeekster#8508: As the others have said, refurb stuff is very localised, we won't really know what items are available for best value, if it's anything like here though, get a refurb business PC, stick a gpu in it, and that should tide you over Deleted User#0000: Yeah Deleted User#0000: Ik TheFifthAce#4128: @Deleted User optiplexs are nice, can usually find them for cheap TheFifthAce#4128: Just buy one, pop a graphics card in and you're set Deleted User#0000: K Deleted User#0000: But the power supply Deleted User#0000: Replace or stay? TheGeekster#8508: Depends what gpu you end up putting in it, but you can replace the psu JustinXenyx#8854: i'd recommend it, it you have the budget for it/if there is some left over for it JustinXenyx#8854: gives you more flexibility for upgrades TheFifthAce#4128: Make sure the optiplex you get doesnt have an i3, the i3 ones are pretty homo TheFifthAce#4128: If you get an optiplex JustinXenyx#8854: he'd need atleast a i5 for Cemu TheFifthAce#4128: Ye

JustinXenyx#8854: @Deleted User So, i just contacted the guy, he said that it probably isn't worth it to ship a full computer via a forwarding company JustinXenyx#8854: because the high weight of the case would make the shipping costs a lot higher than what they would be for the parts seperate without a case

Deleted User#0000: Hm Deleted User#0000: @Tech Helper help this man 😎😎#8300: idk there is a lot of it 😎😎#8300: at least there is 😎😎#8300: less input delay
Charlotte#0003: why can you not use Vsync 😎😎#8300: input delay Charlotte#0003: ah 😎😎#8300: and i take the game pretty seriously Deleted User#0000: Inb4 fortnite Charlotte#0003: what gane is it? also what monitor you on? 😎😎#8300: the game is fortnite Deleted User#0000: Oml :Xdxdxd: Charlotte#0003: Theres a very simple solution to that problem @😎😎 Charlotte#0003: *stop playing fortnite* Deleted User#0000: Ye kill ye self :DickPick: 😎😎#8300: ok Alcyone#2233: If you are trying to reduce latency ti the minimum try and get settings that can run the min frames at a multiple of your refresh rate then cap it there. Alcyone#2233: 120 fps on a 60hz will help 😎😎#8300: so
😎😎#8300: i should cap frames at 120 in amd settings and in game is what ur saying Alcyone#2233: You should be able to just disable vsync in game and use the amd frame rate control 😎😎#8300: witch one 😎😎#8300: oh on unless application specifies Alcyone#2233: If you want vsync in other games yeah, just set it for fortnite and leave the global setting alone 😎😎#8300: ok 😎😎#8300: alright ill do that and see if it fixs all of this ill be back after 😎😎#8300: there might be stuttering tho idk yet Deleted User#0000: Alcyone is a fortnite pro aren't you @Alcyone 😎😎#8300: do i need to restart for it to apply? Alcyone#2233: I only played it once. I swear 😎😎#8300: ok so 😎😎#8300: @Alcyone the game feels a lot better 😎😎#8300: feels really smooth Deleted User#0000: Fortnite pro alcyone
😎😎#8300: but its tearing 😎😎#8300: i didnt restart pc tho idk if i have to for amd settings to apply 😎😎#8300: @Alcyone Alcyone#2233: Might. If your fps dip under 120 it will tear 😎😎#8300: nah its not dipping at all Alcyone#2233: You on 60 or 75hz? 😎😎#8300: 60 😎😎#8300: im pretty sure Alcyone#2233: Try 118 cap if restart doesn't fix it 😎😎#8300: oh should i have restarted it Alcyone#2233: Is the frame cap working and holding the 120fps? 😎😎#8300: yeah 😎😎#8300: vsync off in game as well 😎😎#8300: there is like no delay at all to Alcyone#2233: So prob doesn't need restart. Try 118 cap. If that doesn't work try uncapped in amd and using in game frame control
😎😎#8300: alright 😎😎#8300: if 118 doesnt work 😎😎#8300: when i un cap 😎😎#8300: should i have cap in game as well or no Alcyone#2233: If 118 doesn't work try uncapped in amd and cap in game only 😎😎#8300: alright 😎😎#8300: btw there is no 118 cap in game Alcyone#2233: For now you should be using no game cap and only amd setting 😎😎#8300: alright 😎😎#8300: and if the last way doesnt work there is something wrong with my screen Alcyone#2233: If it doesn't tear with vsync I think the display is fine. Might just be frame pacing or something 😎😎#8300: k 118 didnt work 😎😎#8300: k imma try the in game cap and uncap in amd settings 😎😎#8300: ugh didnt work 😎😎#8300: well now what @Alcyone
Alcyone#2233: Do you use afterburner? 😎😎#8300: lol i got it today Alcyone#2233: Rtss that it comes with has a frame cap too. Alcyone#2233: Can try that or 120 cap in game+amd 😎😎#8300: so 😎😎#8300: how do i cap with afterbunner 😎😎#8300: i dont really know how to use it tbh Alcyone#2233: Open Riva tuner statistics server and it's on the right side of the ui 😎😎#8300: all i know with afterbunner is dont mess with something you dont know what it does Alcyone#2233: You can't break a gpu on the default bios. It won't let you set an unsafe voltage 😎😎#8300: good to know 😎😎#8300: ill let you know when i cap it 😎😎#8300: where do i open riva runner tho 😎😎#8300: @Alcyone Alcyone#2233: It should have installed with ab, look in the start menu
😎😎#8300: theres missing tabs in the settings window 😎😎#8300: @Alcyone 😎😎#8300: there is no on screen display tap 😎😎#8300: you there @Alcyone Budget#8265: Don't tag the dude so much 😎😎#8300: aight ZeroForsaken#0001: @s w a g ironically, I got off dicord and did my own research and it ended in the RX 480 and RX 570 ZeroForsaken#0001: It says a 500w psu should work (which is what I have), but I'm still not certain on it because they both take up >190 I think MythologicalZ#3752: What brand PSU? MythologicalZ#3752: EVGA white meme or something similar should be fine chemas#1606: The beautiful thing about the RX480 is that it can be upgraded with a new bios and you can squeeze rx580 performance out of it MythologicalZ#3752: It's not a huge gap chemas#1606: Yeah but it’s good to squeeze all the performance out of any card MythologicalZ#3752: Generally the average gamer isn't going to BIOS mod though MythologicalZ#3752: So keep that in mind
chemas#1606: Yeah true Rio#1000: or you can just overclock it to rx580 specs chemas#1606: If you mess with the Bios, is there a chance that you can mess up the entire card Rio#1000: if you fuck up the flash Rio#1000: or if the card cant handle the oc chemas#1606: Ok chemas#1606: I’ll just look up a tutorial MythologicalZ#3752: Don't most 480s have a dual BIOS? JustinXenyx#8854: @Rio so, if i wanted to put TWRP on the new A5-16 i have, its the same steps as when i did it with the J3-16, right? Rio#1000: @JustinXenyx yeah JustinXenyx#8854: nice Rio#1000: those steps apply to most samsung phones Rio#1000: they did some weird encryption shit with the s8 JustinXenyx#8854: huh, makes sense that so many people say "samsungs are the easiest to root" then Rio#1000: yeah
Rio#1000: not including the snapdragon s9 Rio#1000: that shits unrootable Rio#1000: s8 theres some encryption shit, but its ez to bypass JustinXenyx#8854: what did they chance about the snapdragon s9, that makes it unrootable? Rio#1000: well Rio#1000: on most samsung phones they have the oem unlock in options Rio#1000: and you cant unlock bootloader without ticking it Rio#1000: snapdragon s9 doesnt have the option Rio#1000: simple as that Rio#1000: i think you can do some root method thats kinda weird Rio#1000: but no recoveries or anything JustinXenyx#8854: sounds similar to what they did on my old galaxy express Rio#1000: havent touched an express Rio#1000: the oem unlock thing didn't exist until the s6 Rio#1000: before that bootloader was factory unlocked
Rio#1000: aside from like 2 phones JustinXenyx#8854: for my express, any root attempt was unsuccessful JustinXenyx#8854: we even tried king/kingoroot as a last resort Rio#1000: o the express is a spastic s4 mini JustinXenyx#8854: it feels like a odd fuse between a galaxy s3 mini and a s2 Rio#1000: mhmm Rio#1000: anyways Rio#1000: did you try adb bootloader unlocking? Rio#1000: also cf auto root for the express is a thing now Rio#1000: https://firmware.mobi Rio#1000: @JustinXenyx JustinXenyx#8854: adb bootloader was unsuccessful, maybe i'll give the auto root thingie a try if i get a proper battery for the express again Rio#1000: epic Rio#1000: probably factory unlocked bootloader Rio#1000: like most samsung phones of that era
Rio#1000: i want a htc hd2 Rio#1000: people shoehorned so many fucking oses on that phone Rio#1000: there was windows phone, android, ubuntu, and other shit made for it Rio#1000: basic idea https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/545967394888351773/Screenshot_20190216-005914_XDA.jpg JustinXenyx#8854: lol, looks interesting JustinXenyx#8854: imagine doing that with a modern-ish windows phone Rio#1000: aye Rio#1000: pretty sure someone made oreo for it Rio#1000: this is a windows mobile phone JustinXenyx#8854: where do i put TWRP again, into AP? Rio#1000: has its 10th birthday this year Rio#1000: yeah, ap JustinXenyx#8854: oreo probably is laggy af Rio#1000: wonder how go edition would go on it Rio#1000: the hd2 is considered as the father of android development
Rio#1000: i think the hd7 got a similar treatment Rio#1000: but not quite as good Rio#1000: make sure you turn auto restart off too @JustinXenyx Rio#1000: or itll delete twrp on reboot JustinXenyx#8854: its stuck in download mode :Hahahahaha: JustinXenyx#8854: won't turn off JustinXenyx#8854: wasn't the HD7 called the HD3 in different countries? Rio#1000: hold vol down and power to get out of download Rio#1000: hd3 was what people called the hd7 before it launched Rio#1000: since math JustinXenyx#8854: yeah, i only remember a HD3 and not a HD7 Rio#1000: fair enough Rio#1000: wonder how much a hd2 is from taobao Rio#1000: because i want one to fuck around with JustinXenyx#8854: nice, after one busted flash i got twrp working
JustinXenyx#8854: (phone rebooted when it got out of dl mode, idk why) Rio#1000: yeah thats normal Rio#1000: vol down + power is forced restart Rio#1000: simulates battery pull JustinXenyx#8854: i remembered vol down + power + home did battery pull Rio#1000: its the main button combo to remember when working with newer samsungs Rio#1000: vol down + power + home is just download mode Rio#1000: home doesnt actually do anything in that combo JustinXenyx#8854: aight taptapking#6216: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/545980079797305354/received_2383528948347381.png taptapking#6216: Does anyone has the bios file for this rx 470? hotmale420360#3948: what model is that? hotmale420360#3948: you can use this to find a lot of bios files https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/ hotmale420360#3948: is this it? https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/192289/powercolor-rx570-4096-170330 taptapking#6216: I flashed the powercolor rx470 bios on techpowerup and now my card is unstable
hotmale420360#3948: oof taptapking#6216: It's an AXRX470 4GD5 hotmale420360#3948: weird i can only find 570's with that shroud taptapking#6216: Flashing 570 bios into 470 may cause some problems so i don't want to do it taptapking#6216: I don't think it's a mining variant because my card has 3 DPs, 1 hdmi and 1 dvi hotmale420360#3948: are you sure thats not a 570? hotmale420360#3948: because the 570 red dragon also has those ports hotmale420360#3948: and red dragon 470s look like this https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/545982614708813824/9k.png taptapking#6216: The seller said it is an rx 470 taptapking#6216: Also the model number on the card confirms it is an rx 470 hotmale420360#3948: weird taptapking#6216: Is there any problem flashing 570 bios into 470? hotmale420360#3948: i wouldnt think so considering its almost the same gpu hotmale420360#3948: https://www.digitaltrends.com/computing/users-flash-amd-radeon-rx-470-and-480-cards-with-rx-570-and-580-firmware/ taptapking#6216: I don't believe my psu is not enough for rx 470 because i was using an rx 570 fully stable
hotmale420360#3948: how much wattage? JustinXenyx#8854: RX470's and 570's are literally the same hotmale420360#3948: ^ taptapking#6216: It's a cooler master 450w hotmale420360#3948: it should be ok hotmale420360#3948: rx 470s only have 1 6-pin taptapking#6216: My rx 470 has 8 pin taptapking#6216: Similar to my rx 570 JustinXenyx#8854: @hotmale420360 nah, some higher-end ish models have 8 pins hotmale420360#3948: yes hotmale420360#3948: but i mean reference taptapking#6216: Should i take the risk and flashing an asus rx 570 bios to the powercolor card? JustinXenyx#8854: no JustinXenyx#8854: don't flash bios's from different manufacturers hotmale420360#3948: yes
JustinXenyx#8854: can cause a shit ton of incompatibility JustinXenyx#8854: also, what ram does your card have? that also depends @taptapking taptapking#6216: Both my rx 470 and rx 570 have 4GB JustinXenyx#8854: no, i mean what manufacturer made the ram taptapking#6216: Let me fire up gpu z taptapking#6216: Samsung memory taptapking#6216: What's wrong with that? JustinXenyx#8854: nothing wrong with it, but flashing a bios with a different memory profile for different memory will brick the card Rio#1000: samsung memory is the best if anything taptapking#6216: I flashed the powercolor rx 470 bios from techpowerup taptapking#6216: The card only works about 1 minute then it crashed my system (only if I installed the driver) JustinXenyx#8854: https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/192289/powercolor-rx570-4096-170330 JustinXenyx#8854: it doesnt support samsung memory, the 570 bios @taptapking Rio#1000: 570 vbios will work Rio#1000: will oc the card too

Price not being a factor, strictly performance JustinXenyx#8854: you mean all-copper designs? JustinXenyx#8854: like, fins n shit all out of copper? Flannel84#2980: ya like instead of just copper heatpipes and aluminium fins Flannel84#2980: like this https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/546042790921109515/2Q.png JustinXenyx#8854: unnecessary, it probably won't gain you much more thermal performance at all JustinXenyx#8854: there is a reason that all-copper designs aren't popular
Flannel84#2980: Extra weight and minimal gains of like, 1-3 degrees C I take it? JustinXenyx#8854: basically, yes Flannel84#2980: Nice to know that while better, really not worth the cost/weight and pushes more towards a cheap water cooling setup in some cases.

Charlotte#0003: @Tech Helper Need some helping fixing an old CAD PC Charlotte#0003: So ive tried to boot it up pn IGPU (as not got cable for GPU) and it makes a almodt grinding sound and no display taptapking#6216: what is your cpu? Charlotte#0003: No idea JustinXenyx#8854: before you try anything, i'd locate the grinding sound JustinXenyx#8854: who knows where that comes from/what its doing Charlotte#0003: It sounds like the chinese bomb psu combined with stock cooler
Charlotte#0003: The guy said 'it suddenly died one day, regused to load windows, just black screen' taptapking#6216: you should investigate cpu fan and the psu Charlotte#0003: ive removed cpu Charlotte#0003: gonna clean it and see what it is taptapking#6216: is it dusted? Charlotte#0003: the pc? taptapking#6216: yes Charlotte#0003: coated in dust Charlotte#0003: Gonna clean that now taptapking#6216: you must Charlotte#0003: The cpu is back in and repasted taptapking#6216: clean everything before firing it up again Alcyone#2233: Sounds like the hdd is dead. Pull the sata/ide and hdd power cable and see if it will post. MythologicalZ#3752: ^ MythologicalZ#3752: Pull the drive
taptapking#6216: i don't think a dead hdd will prevent posting MythologicalZ#3752: It can MythologicalZ#3752: Black screen only JustinXenyx#8854: a dead hdd can definitely prevent posting, especially if it shorts the power supply out taptapking#6216: i've never seen a dead hdd that prevents booting MythologicalZ#3752: It is a thing MythologicalZ#3752: My HTPC had the issue Charlotte#0003: Im currently cleaning PSU + GPU xlen#6206: it would post, dead HDD would show disk error xlen#6206: I'd say it GPU as of cracking sound taptapking#6216: he already said his PC was dusted JustinXenyx#8854: i mean a dead HDD could be all sorts of things tbh JustinXenyx#8854: busted circuit, busted platters, busted motor, busted head, busted ribbon, busted actuator Charlotte#0003: cleaned up fully and no display Charlotte#0003: gonna take out hdd and try
taptapking#6216: you should also try reseating your ram Charlotte#0003: Ill do that as well ra#2579: im trying to set up an egpu for a lenovo w530 with pcie to express card, and i had seen something about nvidia cards not being great for it. If i have a 1050ti 4gb, will that work well or not. If it doesnt, what is a cost efficient alternative ideally under Β£50 that will get the closest to the performance. JustinXenyx#8854: i mean, eGPU setups themselves aren't great taptapking#6216: any card should work if you have the sufficient psu taptapking#6216: but that's not really an optimal solution JustinXenyx#8854: eGPU setups are ALWAYS severly limited interms of the pcie lane bandwidth, which cripples the graphics card to hell ra#2579: yeah, but atm ive got nvidia quadro k1000m so it kinda needs upgrading taptapking#6216: what about egpu that runs of thunderbolt? JustinXenyx#8854: @taptapking Also bandwidth bottlenecked ra#2579: doesnt have a thuderbolt port Charlotte#0003: okay, when powering on theres still a minor clicking off psu, but the HDD light that was red is gone Charlotte#0003: Ill try swapping it with one of my own hdd's ra#2579: So, is there a cheaper and less bandwithed way to use an egpu or is there none? taptapking#6216: it should post without hdds
taptapking#6216: maybe try replacing rams? xlen#6206: @ra 1050ti shouldn't be crippled, but it will be a noticeable performance hit Charlotte#0003: @taptapking without hdd is just black screen ra#2579: aight, cheers TheFifthAce#4128: what cpu is it @Charlotte taptapking#6216: Then maybe something else on your board is faulty Charlotte#0003: @TheFifthAce i5 3470 TheFifthAce#4128: oh thats not bad TheFifthAce#4128: :dAB: xlen#6206: @Charlotte no post in 90% cases are one of 3: GPU, CPU, RAM(that should get indicated by error code though) taptapking#6216: Faulty cpu is least likely JustinXenyx#8854: he figured as much @xlen xlen#6206: do you have a mobo speaker? Charlotte#0003: tge SATA power has very minor grazing on it, looks like from a knife trying to cut the cable ties, will this very minor grazing affect it? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/546363203333128192/20190216_161132.jpg Charlotte#0003: Its not enough to penetrate tge wire

I'm definitely getting a house next time I move. Fuck living in a cramped space taptapking#6216: Why not selling some of your hardwares to save space? Smug space wizard#7829: I'm selling things I actually want to save for the future, still. I don't have any space taptapking#6216: Maybe consider moving to a new place after selling things taptapking#6216: Or rent some storage Smug space wizard#7829: Literally 2 storage rentals in this whole town, and they opened 2 years back. You literally wouldn't have anywhere to go when this started to be problematic for me 3 years back Charlotte#0003: New RAM sgick and fucking nothing taptapking#6216: Have you tried sticking hardwares to the wall to save space?

Charlotte#0003: All the fins are spinning,LEDS are lighting Charlotte#0003: I dont have anything 1155
taptapking#6216: Your board is likely dead Charlotte#0003: either board or cpu taptapking#6216: you gonna need to borrow a working 1155 board or 1155 cpu DarknessFalls229#2286: Or psu, if its a non brand psu it might have kicked the bucket or something and still semi work DarknessFalls229#2286: Also, are all motherboard cables connected? Charlotte#0003: @taptapking from who? taptapking#6216: From your friends or someone who is kind enough to lend you one Charlotte#0003: I dont know a single person interested in PC building Charlotte#0003: Bar one who built his gaming pc and doesnt care for anything else pc wise taptapking#6216: Is there any computer stores near your house? Charlotte#0003: None that would lend me parts... taptapking#6216: You just bring the board over and ask them to test it taptapking#6216: (You may need to pay a little though) Charlotte#0003: also just a note dvd drive refuses to open just led flashing red, supporting the idea of a dead dvd drive taptapking#6216: Try unplugging it
Charlotte#0003: okay have done DarknessFalls229#2286: Unplug everything except 24pin and cpu power and front panel and display xlen#6206: ^ Charlotte#0003: That is all there is Charlotte#0003: barring hdd DarknessFalls229#2286: No usb devices?

SanteRaptor#2609: OR dvi to hdmi Charlotte#0003: The fact the front light if madly flashing red shows me i dont think its that though... and the CD drive refuses, and the gpu said it wouldnt boot off either integrated or dedicated xlen#6206: @SanteRaptor those ar DP not hdmi SanteRaptor#2609: i know SanteRaptor#2609: thats why i said dvi to hdmi xlen#6206: oh misread taptapking#6216: either your board or your cpu is faulty Charlotte#0003: Im gonna pronounce this dead for now,when im back from holiday ill have a chat with the guy Charlotte#0003: Anyway - time to try the shuttle pc! taptapking#6216: you gonna need an working 1155 board or 1155 cpu to find the culprit xlen#6206: do you have another GPU? xlen#6206: maybe try changing GPU taptapking#6216: he said it didn't post with igpu xlen#6206: it might be that iGPU is not working... xlen#6206: it not like it is uncommon
taptapking#6216: that's very unlikely xlen#6206: unlikely, but quite possible DarknessFalls229#2286: WAIT DarknessFalls229#2286: @Charlotte take dgpu out, and use igpu JustinXenyx#8854: i thought thats what he did first taptapking#6216: he did take the dgpu out though TheFifthAce#4128: gamers how do I make the msi fps counter not show up when playing roblox taptapking#6216: simple, just turn afterburner off TheFifthAce#4128: no TheFifthAce#4128: unacceptable DarknessFalls229#2286: Well, the way he said ,cant try dgpu, felt like he didnt take it out Charlotte#0003: i took it out and tried Charlotte#0003: Fuck all Rio#1000: @TheFifthAce dont play roblox

Smug space wizard#7829: I did search on brand new stuff and found a decently discounted deal on a Lenovo tab 4 '10 for about 60% off. I might look in to it further Rio#1000: didnt you want small? Rio#1000: because the tab 10 is full size Smug space wizard#7829: Yeah. It's not a privet seller, it's a store deal. If they're in stock, I might can get the 8' model Rio#1000: try and track down a nexus 7 2013 if possible tho Rio#1000: the 2012 is okay, but not great s w a g#8302: @chemas price to perf, assuming GPU/CPU perf, likely a used workstation, say a M4600/M6600-M6700/M4700, 8760W/8560W-Zbook 17/15 taptapking#6216: should i trade my i5 4460 with an fx 8350? taptapking#6216: no additional cash needed Charlotte#0003: NO, THE I5 IS MASSIVELY BETTER @taptapking Charlotte#0003: Didnt mean caps lock sorry

Charlotte#0003: i cant find a direct bench, but difference between the 2 seems minimal Charlotte#0003: They seem to be very similar Charlotte#0003: If you can get the fx for free and can take it to 4ghz+ id go for that, else keep the i3 @taptapking taptapking#6216: i guess i'll keep my i3 because i can't take the fx 6300 for free taptapking#6216: i also don't have any beefy cooling solutions Charlotte#0003: good Charlotte#0003: If you wanna upgrade it id advise an i5 2500, or an i7 2600 @taptapking Charlotte#0003: Then you stay on same board thatubuntuguy#5914: i5 2500 is great, as is the 2400

wapted#6788: Seems odd it is stuttering, but given its limited to fortnite it could be a range of issues from shader caching to not playing nicely with the driver wapted#6788: Best bet it to reinstall the graphics drivers 😎😎#8300: i guess wapted#6788: or if that doesnt work, try Apex legends or something instead πŸ˜„ 😎😎#8300: ill try the update and if that doesnt work ill reinstall drivers and if they doesnt work ill try apex 😎😎#8300: should i do clean install @wapted chemas#1606: Yeah I think fortnite is the issue chemas#1606: If you want a real battle royal experience, play Minecraft’s hunger games chemas#1606: Also lmao someone is selling their 1070Ti for $99 wapted#6788: if its too good to be true MythologicalZ#3752: F2F and check the die TheFifthAce#4128: gamers TheFifthAce#4128: is r7 260x for 30$ shipped ok JustinXenyx#8854: yes TheFifthAce#4128: @JustinXenyx what about a 760 for 35$ shipped instead
