We're developing a short full-motion video (FMV) horror game mostly for fun as hobby project. The game blends live-action footage shot on 6K cameras and 3D animated environments, look up "At Dead of Night" to get an idea of the FMV-concept. The game will be available on PC/Mac, iPadOS and iOS (Android port coming later). For the PC/Mac version we're debating if it should be rendered as 4K (3840x2160) or 2K (2560x1440). It'll be rendered at 60 FPS regardless. I'm not gonna get too deep into the weeds about the project here, I just want to get a general idea about: Would you prefer a more computational intensive 4K version with a bigger download size, or a smaller and lighter 2K version?

I have a RTX 2060 and I was wondering if mounting it vertically vs horizontal is better for performance. I know that the traditional way is horizontal but if vertical is better and gives better performance then that's an easy and cost effective fix

Hey! For the last 2 years or so I've been struggling with some graphical issues occuring in my playthroughs of various video games on my new PC. Jagged edges, pixelated hair, water, sometimes reflections. I tried many fixes that I found on the internet but none of them helped. That includes: - Updating, Downgrading, Reinstalling drivers - Messing with Antialiasing options in the NVidia Control Panel - Using NVidia's overlay to sharpen or desharpen visuals - Messing with In-Game AA Options (I was able to make it look better in some cases, but wouldn't count it as a FIX) - Cleaning the Graphics card, removing it, putting it back again - Checking how it looks on different monitors (1366x768 Samsung, 4K Philips TV) - Changing HDMI to DisplayPort with different cables - more which I don't exactly remember now At first I thought that it was due to my old monitor not working well together with a newer graphics card, so I upgraded and got the 1080p treatment I finally deserved. Got dissapointed though, as the issues still occured. Seems like every game I play has this noisy overlay on top of it that somehow jaggs (if that's a term) the edges of the games, over-sharpens it. They just don't render right. What could be the cause? How do I fix this? If I change my graphics card will the issue still occur? I attached some screenshots & videos. I need help!! Here's a list of some games I had these issues with: - RDR2 - Stray - GTA 4 & V - Marvel's Spider-Man (& Miles Morales) - Mount & Blade II Bannerlord - Final Fantasy XV - No Man's Sky - Dying Light - Shadow Warrior 2&3 - Skyrim - Minecraft - Cyberpunk 2077 - Rainbow Six Siege And here's my machine: AORUS B450 ELITE AMD Ryzen 5 2600 Gigabyte GTX 1660 6GB 32GB RAM G.Skill Aegis DDR4 3000Mhz (4x8GB) Monitor: Acer VG240YS 165Hz

I have a Gigabyte Vision 3080Ti that I purchased about 6 months ago from a guy that bought it during the 2020 release, he gamed on it till he upgraded to a 4090. I have noticed under heavy gaming load it gets around 81-83°C after a few hours it even spikes to 85°C.. is it time to redo the thermal paste and pads for this card? Or is this around normal temps? PS I have a 5000d Corsair airflow case. Front mounted EK Nucleus 360mm AIO with 3 addition lian li uni fans sandwiched, and 4 lian li uni’s exhausting

Hello, I'm troubleshooting my grandpa's PC, and there's this really weird issue, where the screen freezes and rectangles appear on the screen, then after some time, it restarts, and the cycle continues with random times in between failures, I think it could be a cpu issue (as the computer has integrated graphics instead of a gpu) could anyone help me troubleshoot it?

I was wondering if RAM works with interacted graphics and if it does is there a way for me to add more allocated RAM?

Overall if price is not included who actually wins? Like overall is AMD or NVIDIA a better option when it comes to Games, Video editing, AI technology, so on so forth. Which brand tends to be better at what? like is NVIDIA better for Video editing & AI while AMD is better for gaming? I usually lean towards to NVIDIA as I had a horrid experience with their 5000 series, but I'd love to know now days what is the best on average. For this topic I'd probably want to compare the top of the top from both ends (RX 7900 XTX / RTX 4090) we can include their technological improvements too.

Hi all, I've got a real head-scratcher for you, but I'll try my best to explain. Every game I play has a problem with grainy shadows and artefacting. I upgraded from an RTX 2060 to a 7900 XT about a year ago, and I can't remember if the issue was there before the upgrade; it was at least less noticeable. On top of that, I'm now hyper-aware of glitching because I've just gone through troubleshooting the 7900 XT with tech support at AMD and the retailer, as part of the RMA process. There might be a secondary issue with my 7900 XT (will have to see what the RMA testing reveals), but during the troubleshooting process, I put a 2060 back into my system, and the same issue persisted. I also tried putting the 7900 XT into the system the 2060 came from, and the same issue persisted. I have checked all anti-aliasing and frame generation settings in Satisfactory, Enshrouded, Palworld, Total War Warhammer 3, Conqueror's Blade and House Flipper 2 (Cyberpunk forces TAA without frame generation). Across both cards and all of these games, I see grainy shadows and in most games across both cards, the shadows are flickering. It's more obvious in some games than others, but I assume this is down to variance in how the game codes shadows and 3D models (I can't see any problems in Slay the Spire). This Satisfactory screenshot (https://imgur.com/a/MXV2Zx9) does not have any temporal anti-aliasing or frame generation enabled. I was stationary when taking the screenshot. Hopefully, you can see the fuzzy shadows quite clearly and the smearing/ghosting/duplication of the shadows. In the screenshot from Enshrouded (https://imgur.com/a/Un7KYPo), it looks like the contact shadows are duplicating.

I have used 3 different cables, 3 different monitors, 2 different PCs and 2 different GPUs. Temporal anti-aliasing and frame generation are also not the problem. Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this?

my computer has had a multidue if problems and i have no clue what to do so im turning here. The problems are as follows, showing i have 2 tb of storage but im only able to use under half without it giving me storage errors, and my 3090 has extreme frame drops with games it should easily run without it over heating . I have tried all the well known solutions like re-formatng the drive and updating the drivers for the gpu. there are some other problems but those are not as important as the storage and gpu. i am looking for any help please!

In my mind, it is trying to predict how long rendering the next frame will take, then delays starting the task. I am rather curious as to how RTSS can reduce latency by so much, compared with alternatives like just VSync I would expect that for a scenario with 1% lows of 120FPS+, that enforcing a frame cap of 120FPS would actually have higher latency than Scanline Sync 120Hz. Can anyone with the technical knowledge on this chime in, or perhaps just anyone who is also curious?

I'm trying to play Doom Infinite (GZDoom wad running off Doom 2) on a 64bit Ubuntu 22.04 system (and I've switched on Wayland). At random intervals I'm getting my screens both freezing and sometimes it will fix itself after a bit and I'll see these log10 singularity errors in the console. Sometimes it will crash and I can see the log. But most of the time it will just sit there frozen for a long time and I'll have to REISUB reboot my laptop. While frozen I can still hear videos running in the background, I can hear they are switching to the next video in the autoplay youtube queue so even the internet still works. But Discord will crash almost immediately. I'm pretty new at linux and not having this issue on my PC. I've checked the WADs discord and there was only one other mention of log10 singularity errors but they said it's odd that its freezing my computer. I've ran the ubuntu software autoupdater and am pretty sure that includes the GPU driver being up to date. I've tried fullscreen, windowed, using recommended settings. What can I do to troubleshoot?

Can some one explain why am facing screen black outs while I play a small game like Dota 2. At first I thought it was driver issues but even after changing the version the issue still persists. The black out doesn’t happen when I browse through YouTube or even watch a movie but when I play Dota 2 I face black out after few minutes. I can even hear the music that I play in the background but since I cannot see anything I can only restart the system pc specs - amd ryzen 3500x processor amd Rx 570 graphics corsair vengeance ddr4 8gb ram cooler master 750 gold psu

If in case you need a new display instance for your project or setup but you don't have a dummy plug or your graphics card does not have an output port, this might be for you. What you need to do: Simply download and install ge9's IddSampleDriver (read the instructions included there). Go to Device Manager and Display Settings to check if the driver is working properly. How it works: Microsoft recently introduced the concept of Indirect Display Driver (IDD). This is basically just an implementation of that. In essence, it creates a display instance without requiring a physical connection to the graphics card. ge9's IddSampleDriver is a fork of roshkins's IddSampleDriver which adds a config file that you could use to set the amount of display instances as well as the available properties for those displays. Things to note: This requires fairly advanced computer skills according to the driver's author. Moreover, this is a custom driver from a pretty much unknown source. Proceed at your own risk. With that said, I would also like to give my opinion that simply being diligent in reading the instructions and having basic knowledge in what drivers and certificates are is enough to make this work. Also, if the certificate was not installed properly, try opening either Command Prompt or Powershell as administrator, navigate to installCert.bat's directory and open it from there. As mentioned before, you could use this for a variety of cases. A comment on a Reddit post that I made even stated that they got their Tesla M40 (a card without a display output port) to produce a display output using this. Credits: roshkins for their driver ge9 for their convenient fork I also posted this on Reddit and LTT Discord for those who are interested. I'm trying to make this reach as many people as I can so that Google could place this method on the first page of search results since I had a hard time finding this on my own.

Purchased a used GALAX 3060 ti from eBay, which claimed to be fully tested - and multiple items had been sold (from the same listing). There are no other mentions in the feedback about this item catching on fire. I did clean the GPU PCIE connection area with 70% Isopropyl Alcohol - and waited at least 5 minutes (but I am not sure of the exact time). As soon as the system powered-on, everything started smoking heavily. I held down the Power Button to turn everything off, but even in that small amount of time there was a significant amount of smoke in the room. Basically, I am trying to figure out whose fault this is - Is it possible that the Isopropyl Alcohol had not completely dried, and this is my error? Or is it more likely that the video card itself was already defective?

i have a rtx 3090 and a ryzen 9 3900x but for whatever reason they run like crap, i have tried alot of things people suggest like updating the drivers, resarting, stopping all background processes,exct. i would really like some help because i dont think a 3090 should be running some games at 60 fps at most and freezing for a solid 5 seconds

My games aren't working anymore for example hoi4 doesn't load and gets stuck on "loading sprites" (which I think loads GFX), sea of thieves graphics are potato and it doesn't load anything or let me get into the game, Fortnite loads into game but the houses are random mush in which items don't load and I glitch out of the floor for some reason when I change my fps up and down (30 to 60, 60 to 120, 120 to 144 and back) a few times the buildings and items load war thunder still works like always nothing wrong my games dont give error messages except minecraft they just crash (Minecraft works poorly but FPS stays the same even if I change graphics from max to lowest or lowest to max) my gpu usage is also weird jumping up and down every time I play something. GPU clock speed is 300 MHz 99% of the time with a small jump every now and then higher doesn't matter if I'm playing games or not GPU clock speed is 300 MHz, VRAM clock speed is 2000 MHz and never changes Temperatures range from 45-70 celcius on GPU and electricity usage is 24-34 W haven't seen it go higher CPU temperatures range from 45-70 celcius, speed is around 4 GHz I don't remember doing anything strange to the PC like downloading anything the pc worked fine about 1.5 weeks ago also my pc is a machine I built myself and have had for around 2-3 years now and I changed the thermal paste on the CPU in spring I think? I also found 2 thermal paste pellets (about the size of the tip of a pencil) on my GPU when I opened my side panel to check if my power cables were connected properly yesterday I tried factory resetting my PC a couple days ago with a usb stick it didn't do anything I also tried some DDU but i dont know what it did other than remove my drivers I have never overclocked my system Also sorry for my bad English I have x64 system with Windows 10 home (activated) AMD Ryzen 5 3600 6-Core Processor, stock cooler Radeon RX 580 Series gigabyte GPU 16 GB of ram B450 Tomahawk Max (MS-7C02) Motherboard Samsung SSD and M.2 SSD which system is on I think virtualisation is on idk what that does BIOS version/date American Megatrends International, LLC 3.I0, 14.10.2023

Hey. Hope you can help. Powered up my pc today and noticed a vertical line going top to bottom on my screen. I can only describe it as a visual artifact. It flickers constantly. Only really noticeable on darker backgrounds. RTX 3090 connected to an LG C9 OLED via a HDMI 2.1 cable. I've updated the drivers in geforce experience. I've tried a different cable, and I've tried different hdmi port on the TV. The TV doesn't show the issue on anything other than the pc. There's only one hdmi port on the card so I tried a Display port to HDMI adapter and the issue has gone, but now it can only do 1080p 60hz. My guess is that the low res and refresh is a limitation of the adapter more than anything else, but it still allows HDR. What do you think? Broken hdmi port on the graphics card? Could I get a better display port to HDMI adapter to get 4k 120 VRR again?

I like to make a point! It's probably a luke warm take, but hey! I just wanna say it Motion Blur, Bloom, HDR and such used to crank to 11, particularly back in like pre 2010s and mid 2010s. However, since then, devs have crank down those effects to a more acceptable level, especially motion blur, with the advent of Object Motion Blur, It makes games feel that bit more immersive, as fast object looks realistically fast. It's not as awful as before, as any new graphics effects. This is just something I like to get out.

High fidelity is ruining games. The last game I played that impressed with high fidelity was the original Crysis from 2007. After watching this video For a while now I've held the belief that the push graphics is destroying game. Video cards with heat sinks so heavy and bulky that it will tear itself apart unless braced properly, photo realistic looking games that only look 10% better than what they did 10 years ago, long load times limited physics, low frame rates. I am so sick of seeing these boring lifeless realistic games that I have been looking towards retro and indie games just to escape the homogenized mess. Here's a good video on the subject This was more of a rant, but years ago I used to look forward to the latest tech. Now I dread it. I'm going to go and play some Unreal Tournament. It's like Fortnight but good. I was inspired to make this post after watching Luke and Linus talk about DLSS and how the industry might be moving away from native res. If Nintendo can make games look good on a toaster than we really gotta stop with the excuses.

Hello, I bought a new Nvidia RTX 4070 (MSI VENTUS 3X OC 12GB DDR6X) from Best Buy last week and it's mostly been fine, but I've noticed strange artifacts that happen very occasionally. For the most part, everything is fine but sometimes when watching YouTube videos, I'll see a random black line kind of flash and go away very suddenly and that's it. Then I won't notice it. I probably only see an artifact like once a day. I thought it was just YouTube videos doing it, but I saw the same thing happen but white happen while I was playing Valorant. It's definitely not a big issue, but I just fear that something is wonky with this card. The only other issue I've encountered that I don't think is a problem with the card itself is that Spider-Man Remastered doesn't run as great as I would have thought it would. I have the 4070 with an i9 10900k and 16 gb of DDR4 ram. I'm trying to play on Ultra with Ray Tracing on "high" instead of "very high" and the game runs okay, but I get a lot of frame drops, usually around the 63fps zone and it gets noticeable sometimes. I figured the game would be flawless with a 4070. Again, this probably isn't an issue with the card. I'm mostly concerned about the random but not frequent artifacts. I forgot to uninstall my last GPU's drivers when I installed the 4070, but I ran DDU in safe mode and uninstalled the last drivers, and installed the new ones after the fact. I bought a new display cable. I still seem to randomly get them. The only thing left I can think to do is try a different PSU cable. My PSU is modular and I'm using the 8-pin connect that has a second 8-pin connecter attached to the same cable. Do note that my GPU only requires a single 8-pin connection and not the bigger one the founder edition card uses, so I'm not doing the thing where I'm using a single PSU cable to plug into both female connectors of the adapter cable. Lastly, I could try DDU one more time in hopes it's a driver issue somehow. Does anyone have any advice? I have until 09/26 to return my card, I'm wondering if I shouldn't risk it and just exchange my card with a new one while I still have time. Or if I should run DDU and assume this is likely a driver issue still.

Hello, This has been a persistent issue for months. But whenever I launch or restart my PC I get an error for for "Load vender.dll Fail, Please install VGA driver." I have reinstalled and updated my Nvidia drivers countless times. And done fresh wipes and such. This issue appears to cause my desktop to load oddly (my second monitor displays nothing, and my main monitor temporarily defaults to the lowest resolution), after about 10-30 seconds this stops and it appears to work correctly. I have a ASUS DUAL-RTX2070-O8G-EVO2 and an running the latest drivers (last install was a full wipe of drivers. (Also running on latest stable version of Windows 11 KB5030219) I appreciate any help y'all can give me.

Hello everyone, I build a new PC for my friend back in January. Ever since completing it she has been having an issue that out of nowhere her screens go black. By this we mean actual black is shown on the screens, so not lost input nor loss of backlight. After a few seconds they come back on but the stream has stopped on its own while the game is still running. The issue only occurs when she is both gaming on the PC it self and streaming it to twitch. If she doesn't stream no issue. If she streams an external device trough a capture card no issue. Sometimes it takes 5 minutes before the problem appears and other times it takes more then 6 hours. It's also not specific to a single game or point within the game. It's across multiple games regardless of what she's doing within the game. In the windows logs I get shown this error 3 times within a second: "The description for Event ID 0 from source nvlddmkm cannot be found". And if you google that, there is some threads that point towards the graphics driver. Which I've looked into. Besides that we've send the card in for warranty but both the reseller and the manufacture couldn't find anything wrong with the card and send it back to us. But during the 3 months the card was out she used a 1060ti and didn't have a single issue what so ever. PC specs: Things I've tried: All of my attempts to fix it have failed so far. If anyone can help me figure this one out, I'll be forever grateful. Kind regards from Belgium! log6.CSV

Hello everyone. This will be a long message just to make you understand what the problem is. Thanks for your patience. I have Lenovo Ideapad Z575 laptop with AMD A8-3500M APU with AMD Radeon HD 6620G as integrated graphics and AMD Radeon HD 6650M as discrete one. My operating system is currently Windows 10 LTSC 1809 (doesn’t really make sense actually, the same thing happens on brand new Windows 10 Pro 22H2 from Microsoft’s website too). My discrete graphics AMD Radeon HD 6650M gives me an error code 43 in device manager. Recently installed Lenovo’s OEM graphics driver for my laptop just because the other ones doesn’t work. The graphics driver from AMD’s official website doesn’t install at all while performing a clean installation (Catalyst Software Suite just installs HDMI driver, PCI bus, AMD CCC and something else but not the driver itself). The same thing happens with AMD Auto-Detect Tool too. Once it used to install well but gave me “No AMD graphics driver is installed, or the driver is not functioning properly”. It also installed well while using Lenovo’s graphics driver but gave me the same error. Used to work well on Windows 7 Ultimate just before I reinstalled it and installed Windows 10. Windows Update driver also used to work excellent before I accidentally closed my laptop during World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King game session. After I opened it later the game became very laggy. Right before the accident I had stable 60 FPS but after I opened my laptop the game has 20-30 fps. I tried to reboot my PC but after it booted up the BSOD occurred. I don’t clearly remember what the error was but then my laptop restarted and booted up normally. The problem remained the same. I’ve decided to set power saving mode for the game and FPS became higher (like 45-58) but it’s still quite low for me. After I installed the different version of Windows 10 (I also reinstalled it many times before) Windows Update graphics driver crashed the system completely. Right after it installed the BSOD “KERNEL MODE HEAP CORRUPTION” occurred. Then, after the laptop restarted automatically “PAGE FAULT IN NONPAGED AREA” BSOD occurs. When the system restarts one more time infinite BSOD loop of “BAD POOL CALLER” won’t let me enter the system right until the system repair starts automatically. Then it the system boot up well but the keyboard and touchpad stop working. The only way to use the system normally is to reinstall it, disable auto driver installation via system properties tab and gpedit.msc, then hide driver update using Microsoft Hide or Show Updates Tool and install Lenovo OEM graphics driver. Lenovo’s graphics driver for my laptop seems to work well but there are some problems. First of all, it’s quite outdated (2012, while the AMD’s driver is 2015). It also has less functions in Catalyst Control Center. Only few tabs like AMD Processor Overclocking which are not useful for me at all. But the main thing is that it gives me error code 43 near my discrete graphics AMD Radeon HD 6650M which prevents me from using it. I tried to perform a clean installation of Lenovo’s driver but there’s no result at all. I’ve also contacted AMD because of “No AMD graphics driver is installed, or the driver is not functioning properly” and they gave the solution including performing clean installation of AMD’s driver and using AMD Compatibility Tool. After I’ve told them that the executable file doesn’t install the driver itself and they suggested me to install Lenovo’s OEM graphics driver. Also posted the topic on Lenovo’s and AMD’s forum but they didn’t helped me at all. Recently read in the internet that patching the graphics device using AMD Clock Patcher and flashing the VBIOS using AMDVBFlash Tool. First of all, AMDVBFlash Tool doesn’t run at all but just opens CMD. I also couldn’t find the VBIOS for AMD Radeon HD 6650M. When I open GPU-Z and select my discrete graphics it says the BIOS version is unknown while on my integrated graphics it says the exact BIOS version. I really wanted to try this solution because it seems really useful to me. Thank you for reading all that. Would be really grateful if you could solve my problem. First of all, I want to make AMD or Windows Update driver working well. But at the very least, I would be really happy if my discrete graphics could work well without error code 43 in device manager.

AMD's Radeon RX 7700-XT and RX 7800-XT have been officially announced at GamesCom and it seems that AMD is coming to the rescue once again with more affordable GPUs in the mid-range segment. LAUNCH PRICING (USA): RX 7800-XT 16GB: $499.99 RX 7700-XT 12GB: $449.99 The RX 7800-XT is said to be targeting the performance of the RTX 4070, with the biggest wins coming in around 18% faster and the biggest losses around 22% slower. Its clear that the RX 7800-XT will be the favorable option for pretty much everyone. The drop in performance to step down to the RX 7700-XT is simply not worth the small $50 savings. However, keep in mind that every AMD GPU release so far has dropped in price. With the launch price of the 7800-XT being already $100 lower than the RTX 4070, I can't imagine it will drop much, but maybe slightly to $474.99 or something. But much more likely the RX 7700-XT will drop in price over time to make the RTX 4060-Ti 8GB and 16GB completely irrelevant if it can manage to match its price eventually at $399.99 while offering more performance and 50% more VRAM than the 8GB RTX card. AMD is also announcing FSR-3 with their own Frame Generation Technology to match Nvidia's DLSS-3. Hardware Unboxed seems to have the most in-depth information on this announcement and their video covering the announcement and so here it is:
