 marienz | (2600x to 5800x (not x3d) jumps from 45fps average to 76fps average (65fps 99th%) at 1080p rt ultra, 5950x 91fps / 74fps 99th%. I suspect 5950x is generally fine if you don't need higher framerates than 60. Would need a more recent benchmark to have the x3d in there, picked that one because it still has your older cpu) | 12:03:54 |
 magic_rb | Mhm, yeah | 12:04:18 |
| magic_rb | Thats really what im thinking. That the 5950x is completely fine if im not trying to hit over 60fpa | 12:04:40 |
| magic_rb | * | 12:04:43 |
| magic_rb | Which i really dont care about. I get dizzy from inconsistent framerate but im more than fine with even 30fps | 12:05:02 |
| marienz | I mean, that's just one game, but still | 12:05:10 |
| magic_rb | Tbcf it is my favorite game | 12:05:20 |
| magic_rb | Sooo yk, also, i wanna play that one in VR at some point with the vr mod | 12:05:33 |
| marienz | you're going to want more than 60fps for that | 12:06:04 |
| magic_rb | Not really no | 12:06:14 |
| marienz | (source: I have a vr headset) | 12:06:15 |
| magic_rb | Ive tested it | 12:06:16 |
| magic_rb | 60 is fine | 12:06:18 |
| magic_rb | Ive played at 50-60 fps on my dads pc for 3 hours straight, no dizziness | 12:06:38 |
| marienz | I stand corrected (if that was in vr) | 12:07:01 |
| magic_rb | Yes | 12:07:20 |
| magic_rb | My dad has a quest 3 and a 5070ti | 12:07:32 |
| magic_rb | (Ryzen 7 7somethingX i think) | 12:07:48 |
| magic_rb | Its really only about consistency for me, thats what bothers me the most. I noticed also that if the monitor has reliable vrr, then games always feel smooth no matter tbe fps | 12:08:50 |
| marienz | (vr comfort seems to vary quite a bit from person to person, I think you may have lucked out on that one if you don't mind <60Hz) | 12:09:50 |
| magic_rb | Yeah i know, i also dont mind joystick movement. My dad does | 12:10:31 |
| magic_rb | I at some point played a game with joystick movement while also moving irl to do smaller dodges and shit for 3 hours after which i felt a bit dizzy | 12:11:00 |
| marienz | (...dunno what your vr options in nixos are though, neither headset I've used was linux-friendly. I guess steam frame may change that though) | 12:14:48 |
| magic_rb | Bought a 5950x and a 850watt psu | 13:26:45 |
|  kjdev joined the room. | 17:06:44 |

 Brisingr | Is it possible to use dxvk-low-latency DLLs with pkgs.proton-ge-bin? | 06:36:29 |
| Brisingr | Actually nevermind, I don't think dxvk-low-latency affects DX12 games. | 07:07:25 |
 K900 | It definitely does not | 07:09:18 |
