NorthernLights Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 Been a couple of updates in the last few days and also new driver from Nvidia. The alt-tab issue has been fixed and I'm now getting a very steady 32fps. Thing that annoys me right now is often when I'm flying over a planets surface there is a lot of obvious and quite jarring texture pop ins. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ordered a 1060 last night that will come today I even took the RX480 out and put my old 660 back in so I could get through a mission in Mafia II that kept crashing Anyone want to buy a slightly used RX480?? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFTD Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 You haven't exactly put together a compelling case for buying it from you, Mr X Maybe worth RMAing it, especially if the new one works. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theres definitely nothing wrong with the card, Ive been monitoring it and the usage, temp etc are fine. Its not over working or overheating. Im guessing that the drivers are conflicting with something on my PC, or maybe dont like W10. I cant be arsed trying to work out what. Cant RMA it, the site I bought it off only accepts returns up to 30 days. I have the manufacture warranty card but I havent filled it out. I doubt Id get much more joy out of them, given the card itself is fine, and I'd rather pass the warranty on to whoever buys it 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Thompson Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Loving my 1060 Switched everything back to full screen, ramped up all the settings as high as they go and its barely breaking sweat and more importantly not crashing Slightly annoyed at Asus though. Is it too much to ask that the CD you provide has drivers that actually work with the hardware in the box? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFTD Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 'mon then - what manufacturer/model is your RX480, and how much are you wanting for it? Won't be able to afford it myself, but it's nice to dream 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFTD Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Yep, too much for me, but no doubt some b*****d one else will snap it up. Do we have a thread for people to post their system specs? I know that kind of thing is a bit nerdy and has an element of willy-waving, but it can be useful. I'm interested to know what processor you're using with your new graphics card(s), for example, as I think my GPU is woefully underpowered compared to the processor. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've bought a MoBo and laptop from them in the last 4 years, both endless problems, both times their support wanted nothing to do with it. Otherwise, nice to hear the 1060 is doing you a turn. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have an ASUS MoBo, which is part of the reason I went with their 1060. There seemed to be a lot of similarly priced models that were very similar I havent had any problems with it I also bought an ASUS convertible tablet thing a few months ago which has been fine so far Edited August 24, 2016 by Mr X 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gtx 770 16bg corsair vengance ram i7 4790k. Doesn't seem much now, but was the top baws when I got it. Still runs everything without much effort.

Eoin Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 You dont actually run the game on your PC, it is run on their side in a server farm, and the video/commands are sent back and forth from your pc to their servers 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You only need the USB adaptor for the wireless one? Im hoping my old 360 controller will work ETA - got slightly confused. What I meant, is that the DS4 is already compatible if you connect it using USB, what Sony are selling is an official wireless adaptor ... I think Edited August 25, 2016 by Mr X 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
