  1. Join the dark side. Game can already be played at 4k+ locked 30 fps for most systems. 60 fps mods aren't quite perfect yet, and only the fastest cpus can barely get 60 anyway.
  2. People with OG jailbroken Switches are playing the game on native hardware. 30 fps cap, and you can definitely expect severe drops in certain situations. The game basically looks exactly the same, so I would expect similar performance.
  3. I'm probably 2\3 through and the game matches the vibes of the new Vol 3 movie very well. The writing is very good, but the gaming mechanics are basic. It's more like an interactive movie with how linear the levels are, so that's best mindset to have when playing.
  4. Oh I could have gotten another point or two last week if I just went with my initial gut instead of second guessing myself. But this week... I don't have a clue on half, vague guess on others, and only one I absolutely know for sure.
  5. Gigabyte board just setting the SoC voltage to whatever the hell it wants if you try to do any memory tweaking. At least it actually loads the proper default settings when you reset CMOS, unlike the broken Asus boards. But overall it seems AM5 is just buggy. Anyone with AM5 should double check their voltages with the free app HWINFO.
  6. At least you don't have an Asus board. Its really bad that Asus pumps the SoC voltage that high.
  7. If anyone is running a previous gen CPU.... GOOD LUCK. Here is a Core i5 10400 CPU, can't even max out low end GPUs. AMD video cards should fair better because the AMD drivers have much less CPU overhead, but regardless this game definitely needs more time to cook.
  8. Sadge news incoming... Maybe not for you, but for anyone who doesn't have a $500 current gen CPU + 4090, the game may run like shit. Star Wars Jedi: Survivor appears to have major CPU and VRAM optimization issues on PC WWW.DSOGAMING.COM According to reports, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor currently has major CPU and VRAM optimization issues on PC. -16GB+ VRAM usage -only using 4 cores on a 5900x, which is only hitting 50 fps. I have a 5900x. No game has ever been CPU limited to below 60 fps; my GPU has always been the bottleneck, and only with RT effects.
  9. Everyone will be eating crow when the game takes a turn 2/3rds of the way in, and after all the sneaking Gollum acquires and puts on the Ring, becomes the new Dark Lord, and you get to wreck shit up.
  10. DS can utilize GPU decompression. I'm not really sure what extra benefit RTX IO will do. It is open source, so perhaps these things will basically merge into the same thing anyway. And thanks to the lazy Last of Us PC port, we have figured out exactly how the PS5 dedicates 12GB of VRAM to games, with 4GB to the OS, while the Xbox allocates 13.5GB to games. So safe to say, 12GB will probably be the minimum for current-gen only games going forward.
  11. Actual leaked e-mail: "Hey guys make sure the game uses 12.1GB of VRAM kthnx." One benefit to being UE4 is the game can be modded easily. I replayed Fallen Order as Ashoka and Darth Maul, was cool AF.
  12. RTX IO is Nvidia's version of Direct Storage. There is a world in which either could be used sidestep VRAM limitations, but developers would have to optimize for it. And I don't particularly trust them to put the time into doing that with the trend we're seeing in the latest releases. Plus I don't see it really solving problems like HUB showed in Hogwarts Legacy and Forspoken, each having extreme texture pop-in. It'll make pop-in less severe, but loading in would still be inevitable compared to just having it there in the VRAM. I wonder if HUB tested Forspoken with DirectStorage enabled anyway.
  13. I don't think it'll have much impact on VRAM usage. DirectStorage will affect CPU load the most.
  14. Even a severely underclocked, 150W version is outpacing the 3070. This time next year, we're probably going to be having the "If only the 3080 came with 20GB of VRAM" discussion.
  15. Rick Famuyiwa directed episodes are definitely among my favorite episodes, especially visually, so I'm glad the last two of this season turned out to be enjoyable. He was able to tone down the campiness of this season. There were definitely some rushed moments and head scratchers, but overall it was solid. I also couldn't help but notice Gideon in Season 2: Gideon now: Of course that is the least of the turnabouts for the Gideon character from last season, but we might as well just accept these relatively minor plot holes in Star Wars.
  16. There are already mods that let us tweak the Path Tracing settings to get better performance, basically a providing an in-between the RT Psycho and PT game settings. Raytracing Overdrive Optimizations WWW.NEXUSMODS.COM Grab some almost free fpsTM! Thumbnail is an exaggeration, expect more like a 25% uplift on Nvidia GPUs. Perhaps it has a bigger impact on AMD. There are also other PT mods for those curious.
  17. Keep your GPUs erect and straight, boys: GPU Sagging Could Break VRAM on 20- and 30-Series Models: Report | Tom's Hardware WWW.TOMSHARDWARE.COM Sag brackets are not just nice accessories, but necessary to prolong the life of heavy triple-slot graphics cards TLDR: Sagging + thermal expansion/contraction over time can break solder joints.
  18. That is the sad part. Value doesn't currently exist anymore. AMD followed Nvidia and overpriced the 7900 cards.
  19. We shit on all big corporations in here! RTX 4070 release, only 30% faster than the 3070 while being 25% more expensive on launch MSRP. https://www.techpowerup.com/review/nvidia-geforce-rtx-4070-founders-edition/32.html Yet again we see no value gain from a node shrink. The last time they raised the price of a xx70 card, with the 2070 launch, you could at least argue the extra die space that RT and Tensor cores take up justifies the price increase. This time they don't have that excuse. I am displeased that several reviewers are calling this card a good value. It's "meh" at best, just like the 4070 Ti and 4080 before it.
  20. All their stock coolers are like that. They're basically only good enough for 85W operation, and with their 7000 chips they are designed to boost all the way up to 95 C.
