    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST How Does this Look?

    If it’s just for gaming I would drop the 5900x down a peg to maybe a 5600x. Could use the saving to upgrade to 32 gig of ram or even stretch the GPU budget to a 3080, but that’s just me.

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Poor performance in origin games?

    Just signed up to EA play specifically to play Jedi Fallen order and BFV. Unfortunately just spent the morning trying to run them properly on my Recoil IV laptop with a 2070 Super, with no joy. GPU usage is in the 60’s with both games running at 50-70 FPS and 50-90 FPS respectively. Just at work...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Recoil 4 Overheating

    I remember on my 8750h laptop (Proteus) 90 plus while gaming was quite normal. 60 plus idle temperatures do seem a bit high in my opinion but that’s speculative because I haven’t got the laptop. Hopefully someone with the same chassis could chip in

    How much extra is the 3080? It should be around the same price and it’s way better

    My GPU is maxing at 85 very quickly then throttling. I have underclocked/undervolted the gpu so it hovers around 83-85 but that comes with a substantial performance loss

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Fantasy Land: Who would you want to have a pint with?

    Some reckon he is but I see him as just a clown. That whole Proud Boys thing that he set up was super weird and really dumb. That’s one thing I would bring up to him if I were having a pint with him, as how he ever thought that was a good idea is beyond comprehension
