  1. Can anyone pls help why my GPU usage is not maxed out at 100% with RT Psycho settings and DLSS Quality? Cyberpunk 2077 C 2020 by CD Projekt RED 2022 10 14 02 47 45 - YouTube My system specs are I7 12700K 32GB DDR4 3600MHZ CL14 RAM Zotac RTX 4090 Amp Extreme Airo Corsair HX1000 PSU I am playing at 3440X1440 with DLSS Quality. GPU usage is never locked at 99% and fluctuates frequently even when my CPU is not maxed out. Increasing the resolution using DLDSR solves this. Why is my GPU usage not maxed out when my CPU is also not maxed out?
  2. Hi all. I am building an Alderlake Gaming PC and have opted to stay with DDR4 and a 12700k and use the money saved by not going DDR5 towards a high bandwidth (4000 mhz and higher) low latency Samsung BDie kit. Can someone please recommend a RAM which would fit with the above requirements? Price is not an issue for me. 16GB RAM is what I am aiming for.
  3. I know there are no reviews out but I need to pre-order as stocks are running out. Can someone please assist which of these 2 boards would be a better buy at the moment if you has to choose? Thanks in advance for helping Z690 GAMING X DDR4 (rev. 1.0) Key Features | Motherboard - GIGABYTE Global TUF GAMING Z690-PLUS WIFI D4 | Motherboards | ASUS Gloabl Z690 AERO G DDR4 (rev. 1.0) Key Features | Motherboard - GIGABYTE Global
  4. I was thinking of choosing between these 2 boards for my 12700K CPU. Is the ROG Strix worth the premium? https://www.overclockers.co.uk/asus-rog-strix-z690-a-gaming-wifi-d4-intel-z690-ddr4-atx-motherboard-mb-6gz-as.html https://store.overclockers.co.uk/asus-tuf-gaming-z690-plus-wifi-d4-intel-z690-ddr4-atx-motherboard-mb-6h0-as.html?__cf_chl_jschl_tk__=XBN5eDxnMVAe8LgdF3.OWxc.xdPKNsKQzivgeOKTizs-1636233550-0-gaNycGzNB5E I do listen to a lot of music on my PC in addition to gaming and noticed there seem to be fewer sound features on the TUF. It’s a Realtek 7.1 Surround Sound High Definition Audio on the TUF vs. ROG SupremeFX 7.1 Surround Sound High Definition Audio CODEC ALC4080 on Strix. The Strix also has Impedance sense for front and rear headphone outputs. Not sure how relevant that is but does this mean strix has better audio quality if I am listening through a Sonos Arc sound bar? Also there seem to be 2 fewer phases on the TUF but not sure if they are worth the premium. any help would be great. https://rog.asus.com/motherboards/rog-strix/rog-strix-z690-a-gaming-wifi-d4-model/spec https://www.asus.com/Motherboards-Components/Motherboards/TUF-Gaming/TUF-GAMING-Z690-PLUS-WIFI-D4/techspec/
  5. I have watched many reviews and can't make up my mind between the two. DDR5 RAM is out of stock everywhere and I am not sure if its worth waiting for it to get in stock. Is DDR5 really worth it solely for gaming?
  6. I have an RTX 3080 Ti and will be playing at 4K but I have heard dlss and FSR upscale from 1080p so cpu performance is still relevant at 4K.
  7. I am building a new PC and am confused which one to get between the 2 for gaming after watching a lot of reviews. Which would be a better pick based on value for money? The 12700k is cheaper but the motherboard, cooling and ram costs higher so that’s offsetting the difference.
  8. I am currently on an S2716DG and looking for a monitor upgrade to go in line with my 3080 purchase. The Alienware AW3420DW has ultra wide which people say is more immersive but the Alienware aw2721d seems to have HDR and a better screen and a higher refresh rate.Which monitor would be a better upgrade?
  9. I am finally able to get my hands on an RTX 3080 FE at MSRP today. It isnt expected to stay in stock for long. Should I get it or is a RTX 3080 Ti release in Jan inevitable. I have a budget of $999
  10. My system: Intel Core i9-9900k @ 4.8GHZ RTX 3080 GPU My current RAM is 2X8GB F4-3200C16D-16GVKB-G.SKILL International Enterprise Co., Ltd. Since I have cash left after this build, can anyone please recommend one of the best 2X8GB RAM for gaming, which would at least slightly increase FPS? I play at 1440p 144hz so want to maximise frame rate. Thanks in advance for helping
  11. I am on a NZXT S340 Elite case. I have a Corsair H100i v2 front mounted as an radiator with its fans for intake. These have SP120L as the stock fans. Which upgrade would be recommended?
  12. I have built a very expensive rig with an RTX 3080 FE and a 10900k and do not want it to be fried due to a desire for better aesthetics. Are Cablemod cables safe to use or is there even a slightest element of risk and I shouldn't bother? The below is my PSU HX Series™ HX1000 — 1000 Watt 80 PLUS® PLATINUM Certified Fully Modular PSU (corsair.com) These are the cables I am planning to get CableMod C-Series ModMesh Classic Cable Kit for Corsair RMi / RMx / RM (Black Label) – CableMod Global Store
  13. I currently have an NZXT FN V2 case fan set as exhaust which came with the case itself and looking to upgrade. I care about cooling performance more than noise. Which one would be a better buy?
  14. Well here's something weird. I disabled Hyper threading on my 9900k and now my CPU utilisation is always between 60-90% in the forests and 90-100% in cities and now my GPU utilisation isn't fluctuating wildly like before and is mostly a constant 90%. It seems this game is unable to utilise all threads properly.
  15. I just checked. When my GPU utilisation drops to 75% and FPS drops to 56 all the cores on my 9900k reach around 80% usage but none of them are pegged at 100%.
