verdare, do gaming w Don't forget to undervolt your gpu and change fan curve

I didn’t have any luck undervolting my GPU; It would just crash with even the smallest voltage offset. That said, I have had success undervolting my CPU. I’d also suggest limiting the total power draw. No noticeable drop in performance for lower temps and reduced fan noise.

I wouldn’t recommended it if you don’t have fairly clean power. Definitely run into issues where a voltage drop in the mains would just shut off my system.

25FPS and 480 pixels vertically is enough for me to get sucked in and forget the world around me.
Which is nice cause that way I can play open world RPGs like Kingdom Come on an old laptop.

40 is fine, I can go lower depending on how nadlyO want the experience. I grew up relatively poor, I am not going to completely pass up on an experience I am looking forward to over a lower framerate.

I try to get 60 FPS, 30 is fine and i could live with 20

10 if the alternative is lag spikes

Dug out my PSVita and found out you can still use it on the Playstation store! Down loading Metal Gear Solid VR Missions right now and I’m gonna get my Stealth on.

I finished Arcanum for the first time. It was… okay, I suppose. It really hasn’t aged super well, and has some pretty big flaws. The combat is atrocious, and the followers are extremely bare bones. The setting is really enjoyable though, and the character customization options are broad and fun (although the inventory management required to make a technologist work makes it ill advised in practice sadly). In the end I’m glad to have played it but I can’t really recommend it without some huge caveats.

For a change of pace I tackled Weird West, which I picked up for cheap on a GOG sale. I’m almost through with it - it’s not that long - and it’s been enjoyable. I really like the art style and the setting. It perhaps doesn’t clear the lofty bar its Dishonored and Prey pedigree sets for it but it’s got some pleasant twin-sticks shooter gameplay and some fun imsim elements and choices-matter type decisions. The stealth is pretty bad though. Not sure I’d want to pay full price for it, but definitely do recommend it if you want a shorter game and can find it on sale.

Highly depends on the type of game. For First person shooters, 120+ fps is a must. I skipped the more recent CoDs because I couldn’t get them to run at that target consistently enough on my PC without turning them into blurry DLSS smear.

Racing games, where motion is typically always going in one direction with only smooth direction changes, a lower framerate is fine (like 60 to 80), although the added smoothness from high framerate is obviously still nice.

Slower paced or turn based games I’m fine with going as low as 40 FPS, as long as it’s consistent without drops and frame pacing issues.

Im still on a 3080ti playing 4k screw upgrading!

penquin,

3080ti is actually a badass GPU. Upgrading from it would be only a luxury and for someone who’s perusing those extra frames. I’d be so grateful if I had a 3080ti

I played Civilization 7 at 15 for hours before noticing something was off

psud,

I played BG3 at less than 15fps for a while, but upgraded my PC when the video card crashed on about half of the cutscenes and whenever fireworks were used at close range

I don’t really obsess about framerates myself and I’ve never had the kind of budget to have the latest and greatest parts but from what I’ve seen, somewhere around 30fps is fine.

And even though you didn’t ask, the last setting that I ever sacrifice is draw distance. I’ll turn down textures and shadows and reflections and everything else before I sacrifice draw distance. I don’t need realistic graphics to be able to immerse myself and have a good time. But things popping in and out of existence in front of your eyes are the ultimate immersion breaker for me.
