    Battlefield V NVIDIA Ray Tracing RTX 2060 Performance @ [H]

    I would not judge the 2060 on BFx, simply because it's Dx12 is not optimized one bit, no matter the HW, runs worse. Yeh, 6GB is on low side but I can play with a GTX970 with med-high settings, and its smooth for most part. (60fps flat line).

    Battlefield V NVIDIA Ray Tracing RTX 2070 Performance @ [H]

    Right, with BFx I think it is a combination of issues, for one I don't think DICE ever really implemented Dx12 engine, it seems more of a patch type, quick an dirty. But that is the thing with all Dx12 stuff, it takes time to do all the under the hood low-level stuff that could have been used to...

    Battlefield V NVIDIA Ray Tracing RTX 2070 Performance @ [H]

    The review is good but I kind of disagree with your conclusion, the main problem is BFv Dx12 is the same as BF1 which was not up to par, so it is bringing down RT. That is not a Nvidia issue but a DICE one, Dx12 should run at least up to Dx11 level. So the way I see it the RT should of run...

    Noctua AMD Threadripper Air Cooler Roundup @ [H]

    Nice review on Noctua HS's , Though I don't really care about TR. Kyle have you heard anything about new Noctua HS , they showed a U12s that was as good as there U14S at some show at least 6months ago. This is after they released TR parts. Not into AIO so was looking at either U12S or U14S for...

    New NVIDIA Scanner Tool Targets Overclockers

    Man, you guys have gone off the deep end :) Serious here some info before NDA lift on it. Straight from Unwinder (Dev of MSI AB) https://forums.guru3d.com/threads/rtss-6-7-0-beta-1.412822/page-67#post-5582977 As you can read there seem to be two modes, test, and scan. Test you manually alter...

    Enermax EQUILENCE ATX Case Review @ [H]

    So at first, I thought you left out a pic of side panel vents for optional rad/fans but I went to there site and there are no vents on right back side. not sure how mounting anything on the side would work then. Anyway, not a bad case from looks of it.

    Battlefield V Beta is Open

    I have this problem to in seeing the enemy's the dynamic lighting range is high and its hard to see them, especially in the shadows. I raised the brightness to 65% but that can have issues in the bright area's so need to find a sweet spot. I read somewhere DICE is adjusting this for release...

    Battlefield V Beta is Open

    If you have or have played BF1, it will feel similar. It does look better and weapons gameplay is different (weapons damage), I guess you could say it feels like an expansion of BF1 but in WWII with new maps and weapons. There is definitely a difference in gameplay but it would not take you long...

    Battlefield V Beta is Open

    Ok, that makes sense, I play with Vsync off and my display is only 60hz so that is why I cap it just above. PS: Here is one performance review, also some DX11 vers Dx12 in there. https://www.guru3d.com/articles-pages/battlefield-v-open-beta-pc-graphics-performance-benchmark-review,4.html

    Battlefield V Beta is Open

    What CPU are you running? What I do is set a cap to like 65-70 depending on the game. I think I have BF1 on 70 and BFV on 65, I do this to keep it smooth as CPU% has a lot to smooth play. Setting wise I run a mix of med and high. If I was to remove cap my 3570k would sometimes go to 95-100% and...

    Battlefield V Beta is Open

    I don't know on switching but DX12 is bad for either AMD or Nvidia, yeh AMD Dx11 is bad so it might improve a bit for them but all tests I have seen say frame times are bad even on AMD HW. So my point was if big AAA Dev team like Dice have trouble putting in the time to make it good, that says...

    Battlefield V Beta is Open

    No way you can run 4k@60 on 390 but getting back to reality, there is one big issue and this is not only a BFx problem but all the new tech that will come out will be part of DX12. This game and seems many others show how much work needs to be done to get smoother gameplay than what DX11. So...

    Battlefield V Beta is Open

    The demo runs good, smooth like BF1, I get about the same performance as BF1. I really like the changes, I didn't like older BF1, BF4 were you need to empty a whole magazine to kill someone. The pace is slower than older versions, which is good IMO. There were issues the first day with...

    3D-Printed Gun Advocate Given Green Light to Distribute Plans to Others

    Yup, the movie reminded me of some game Dev movie :), the lighting was so dim and quick shots but yeh I re watched they were more work than a 80% kit. It might of been CNC, not sure but doesn't really mater once you get to that level. I would rather do it all on manual machines, as long as your...
