  1. Why would LG put a DisplayPort in a TV? Also what are you going to play on a TV above 120Hz? Even 60 is smooth enough for controller/couch style games. And this is 4K we are talking about. Some older games will run at 4k above 120 fps, but I doubt it will last when next gen titles that drop ps4/xbone start coming out.

    In your dream dude. Crucial P2 QLC sustained write speeds can drop to USB 2.0-like levels of a mere 40 MBps.

    It's bad compared to other NVME SSDs. Compared to hard drives though?

    Like you believe that the MX500 2.5" is sata and the MX500 M.2 in NVMe.

    Where are you pulling that from?

     

    P2 is a budget SSD and it's not something I would put in my recommended list, but it's still an NVME SSD so it's not going to become useless after a year as the other person claimed, it has nothing to do with DRAM either. The flash itself is slow and the downgraded version only has a 24GB cache so it slows down to snail speed after that, but how often you do actually move that many files? 

     

    Not to mention it also makes no sense to recommend SATA SSDs to someone looking at NVME drives, just recommend a better NVME drive. 😂

    Google helps!

     

    honestly I thought this should be common knowledge,  also I don't need the internet to know my a400 started to get *really* slow after just 6 months... we're talking 50mb/s here all while crystaldiskinfo is telling me the drive is "good".

    I mean did you read the article? 

     

    >This mostly applies to older, slower SATA-based SSDs like Western Digital’s WD Green drives or Crucial’s BX500 series.

     

    Doesn't apply to relatively new NVME based SSDs. The controllers are way smarter these days and the lack of DRAM is much less of an issue, if at all.

    not necessarily, because it can get *really* slow after a while.  it'll still work but much slower than a spinning drive even, that's why good ssds have dram cache to begin with. 

     

    This isnt a oh i read some paid reviews issue, this is a real long term issue. 

     

    You are straight up the only person that has ever claimed this that I have seen, and I tried looking it up. And for it to be slower than a HDD? What? Can you show me where you have seen this?

    Not always. Sequential speeds over NVMe may be much higher, but random speeds will depend more on the performance of the SSD. A high end SATA SSD will beat a value NVMe drive there.

    Okay, but why would that lead to the drive dying in a year? That's just not happening. 

     

    This DRAMless paranoia is getting out of hand seriously. New NVME drives without DRAM are all performing as good as the older drives with DRAM.

    Yeah that's the problem. It won't even show up once the game crashes. Suddenly the drive can't be accessed too. Only starts working again on restart, but happens once the game crashes. 

    You could try to reseat it, maybe bad connection. Or it's overheating and turning off. 

  7. 5600 is good enough, 5800x3d is better for 1440p. Techpowerup did their gaming benchmarks with a 3080 and there is a noticeable difference between them in 1440p. Now if it's worth the extra money that depends on you.

    -Are the >700€ of a next gen upgrade (like the 13600kf) a worthy investment?

     

    No. 5800x3d is faster.

     

     

    5800x3d also shouldn't be motherboard limited, the power consumption is very low.

    Hello Bro

    That is the problem. I do this and comming the same . All the time fps is going on max....

    did you do something before it started doing that? Like start to use an autoexec from someone else? I don't see why console commands would stop working otherwise. You should try asking in Dota 2 community page or on Reddit, maybe someone else had this problem. 

  9. Launch options

     

    How to open the launch options:

     

    1. Open the Steam launcher
    2. Go on the Library tab
    3. Press right mouse button on Dota 2
    4. Select Properties and go on the General tab
    5. Press “Set Launch Options…”

     

    Here is a list of useful commands you can include in the launch options:

    Spoiler

    -map dota

    It loads the Dota 2 map when you launch the game. This reduces loading times after you find a game.

    -high

    It gives Dota 2 high CPU priority, which might increase your fps.

    -language “English”

    It sets your game language to English. You can select any language supported by the game.

    -dx9

    -dx11

    -vulkan

    -gl

    It forces the game to run on DX9, DX11, Vulkan, or OpenGL.

    -32bit

    Dota 2 automatically uses the 64-bit client if you are on a 64-bit OS, but you can use this command to force the 32-bit client. AFAIK, there isn’t a performance difference, but the 32-bit one drains less ram.

    -console

    It enables the console in-game.

    +fps_max #

    The in-game settings are limited to 240 fps, but with this command you can increase the fps limit.

     

     

    it seems there is an option in the game settings itself.

    Thanks for clarifying! I had some merchants turned off which didn't help! 
    Is the mobo I chose ok then? I thought B650 was meant to be the "budget" option, I just need one with lots of USB ports
    Thanks for the 360 rad recommendations, exactly what I was looking for. Is the 7950x worth it in terms of performance for the bigger price tag?

     

    B650 is good. PCIe Gen5 lanes are really not useful for majority of people and that's the only real advantage X670 offers.

    Also the mobo is good, lots of phases, lots of usb.

     

    7950X is definitely worth it. You get 4 more cores and 8 threads and higher clock speeds. That's like an extra budget cpu on top of 7900x.
