Probably run worse wouldn't it? GTA 5 is certainly more multi-core aware than some games, but DX11 will still hog a single core no matter what.
-
Can you use a headset for the mic and use different headphones for sound?
GM_Peka replied to CheekyBeverage's topic in Audio
No issues what so ever, just have them both plugged in how ever, and choose your default devices for audio/mic in "Sound". -
Just making sure but, https://i.imgur.com/rHcjj9x.png is that enabled? And is Monitor Technology set to gsync aswell? http://i.imgur.com/ccCYrgB.jpg

I'm back now, so, from what you've said, I highly doubt gsync is working/enabled, I noticed you have two monitors so maybe that's the issue, also if you're playing borderless windowed, that can cause gsync not to enable even if you set it to work on windowed games. So try making sure your games are on proper fullscreen, and not just fullscreen windowed. An easy way to check if gsync is working is when your are at a low FPS, your cursor should update at a slower rate, since your cursor position updates with your refresh rate, regardless of your fps (assuming you aren't using a software cursor). Sometimes, gsync will not active at all even when it's enabled, so you gotta tick it off, press apply, then tick it back on, then press apply.

You are literally giving me a brain aneurysm, I'm just going to go now.
-
Look at this: http://www.testufo.com/#test=stutter Kinda simulates what the judder effect is like, and what gsync is like. Just cycle through the demos
-
Probably because you don't notice it, it's LITERALLY how vsync works OP said it was minor and only noticing when he's specifically looking for it, which is about right. If you want you can watch Tom Peterson's 40 minute long video on gsync, where he explains why the judder effect happens. Or you could just take my word for it. The only way to remove the judder effect is to play your games at a perfect locked 60/120/144 fps (depending on refresh rate) with vsync on, or use gsync/freesync.
-
I have no idea why people think this could be a CPU issue, what you described is normal behavior when using no frame sync or regular vsync.
-
The only thing I can think, is do you actually have gsync enabled, cause this behavior is standard when no gsync is around. I get the feeling you're using regular vsync.
-
If you haven't got gsync enabled, judder is normal, it's caused by the frame rate and refresh rate not dividing into each other evenly. if your monitor is running at 120hz and your frame rate is 90, every other frame will need 2 monitor refresh cycles and the other half of frames only need 1, this causes the judder effect, it's stopped by using gsync because then each frame gets its own refresh (ie 74 fps would give 74hz), so you get perfect frame pacing. The funny thing is, the judder is actually more noticeable the lower your frame rate and refresh rate (again, assuming there's no gsync involved) so it's funny you only just are noticing it at 144hz
-
I actually edited both my comments as you was responding, so maybe check them again.
-
Yeah, just wack it to max then tweak your offset frequency. Not many 970s will go to 1629MHz without issue, so you may be pushing it too far.
-
You can't put it up high enough to cause damage without bios modding. The way GPU boost works, when you increase the voltage, the frequency rises automatically with it too, so simply increasing your voltage limit isn't the solution, set the max voltage to whatever you're comfortable with then tweak the core offset to manage stability.
-
So did nod3dex help you or not?
-
Using the -nod3dex launch command might help your fps, try it.
-
It's hard to say, but I'm not a network pro though.
-
That's correct. Just so you know, you can get the molex to fan thingy in different colors. Quick amazon search should present them.
-
I don't have the keyboard, but faulty unit perhaps?
-
How hard have you looked into changing ISP, just cause I was in the same situation as you with sky, but I just bit the bullet and when with plus.net, so much better now. Although I never had issues with internet dropping.
-
Yeah, I'd say just get the 7v adapter, I mean, 5 pound isn't alot and you can choose the colour of the cable. Should provide enough airflow while being quiet, if you want it quieter still, you can just buy the 5v and keep the 7v as a spare.

Well yes, generally that's how you adjust the speed of fans when you don't have access to a 4th pin. You could get a fan controller like this: http://www.amazon.co.uk/NZXT-Sentry-Mesh-Channel-Controller/dp/B005C31G30/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1455323724&sr=8-7&keywords=fan+controller If you want finite control. But generally, you'd just set it and forget it. What other hardware are you running? Like CPU/GPU.
-
Looking around, it might just be easy to get something like this: http://www.amazon.co.uk/BitFenix-20cm-Molex-3-Pin-Adapter/dp/B004ULZ2NU/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1455323547&sr=8-2&keywords=7v+adapter 7v is about 720 rpm for your fans, which is fairly quiet, but not silent. There are also 5v versions, which should be around 480 rpm.
-
Well the fans that come with his case aren't actually that bad, I doubt OP wants to spend 45 quid on fans, considering his motherboard only costs 50 quid or something.
-
Err, I dunno, haven't really checked since fan controllers are just so 2005 lol. Lemme see.
