2017-03-10 18:10:44 UTC  

nah it's my amd vishera being shit

2017-03-10 18:10:57 UTC  

>1070
>drops to 30fps

2017-03-10 18:10:59 UTC  

Fucking kek

2017-03-10 18:11:15 UTC  

it's not the gpu because I had the same issue before with my 680

2017-03-10 18:11:22 UTC  

Every CPU AMD produced before ryzen was poo

2017-03-10 18:11:40 UTC  

Phenom II era was decent

2017-03-10 18:11:44 UTC  

Muh lack of single threaded performance

2017-03-10 18:11:46 UTC  

went to shit after bulldozer

2017-03-10 18:11:49 UTC  

would run fine at 70fps 1080p in overwatch and the the enemy dva ults and I'm looking at a slideshow

2017-03-10 18:12:13 UTC  

I have vishera/piledriver too

2017-03-10 18:12:18 UTC  

even at 4ghz, the thing's an oven

2017-03-10 18:12:22 UTC  

What play at 4K when you can play at 1080p with 16x MSAA

2017-03-10 18:12:32 UTC  

but it works and I'm too poor to buy a new CPU

2017-03-10 18:12:34 UTC  

I can turn all settings to lowest and STILL drop frames when crazy shit's happening so it must be my cpu

2017-03-10 18:13:05 UTC  

weird, I don't have issues playing overwatch with a fx8320 + rx480

2017-03-10 18:13:12 UTC  

anti aliasing is a meme, I actually prefer jaggies for the contrast and more clearly-defined hitboxes at long range

2017-03-10 18:13:30 UTC  

Hmm

2017-03-10 18:13:53 UTC  

@transience do you think it could be my mobo then? I cheaped out and got a $50 biostar when I built this rig like 5 years ago

2017-03-10 18:14:10 UTC  

also never changed the cpu thermal paste but according to temp monitors I'm not going above 60c while gaming

2017-03-10 18:14:14 UTC  

so I don't think it's a heat issue

2017-03-10 18:14:33 UTC  

could be but idk

2017-03-10 18:14:41 UTC  

are you OCed?

2017-03-10 18:14:50 UTC  

nope I don't even know how tbh

2017-03-10 18:15:00 UTC  

Is it safe to OC with stock cooler

2017-03-10 18:15:01 UTC  

tried it one time and got instant bsod so I just reset to default

2017-03-10 18:15:50 UTC  

@Archy safe? it will crash or shut down long before anything happens, so technically, yes. advisable? esp. not with amd fx

2017-03-10 18:15:56 UTC  

FX CPUs are a toaster

2017-03-10 18:16:00 UTC  

it's not just a meme

2017-03-10 18:16:16 UTC  

damn straight

2017-03-10 18:16:19 UTC  

gaming in the summer is hell

2017-03-10 18:16:30 UTC  

it's only march and it's cooking my whole room

2017-03-10 18:16:31 UTC  

tfw california highs of 110

2017-03-10 18:17:12 UTC  

Why don't you just put ice blocks close to your CPU every 5 mins and it will remain cool

2017-03-10 18:17:34 UTC  

muh polar bears

2017-03-10 18:20:29 UTC  

how cooking are we talking

2017-03-10 18:20:40 UTC  

you don't know what hot is until you use a laptop bruh

2017-03-10 18:28:11 UTC  

My laptop never goes above 53

2017-03-10 18:29:38 UTC  

it's TDP that's important

2017-03-10 18:29:43 UTC  

all that heat gotta go somewhere

2017-03-10 19:08:20 UTC  

My laptop idles at 65
