    Texture pop, poor draw distance, AA, LOD and tessellation, shadow flashing

    p.s I dont think I ever did try windows 11 but many other in the forums did to no avail. I also heard people saying maybe dirty power from the wall, but well my bro has the same issues as me and find hard to believe.

    Texture pop, poor draw distance, AA, LOD and tessellation, shadow flashing

    Yeah I haven't even seen many devs comment on it. Honestly I looked into it for months and put in countless hours of work and testing; built an entirely new test rig, joined forums specifically to try fix the issue, to no avail. I also asked my bro to send me a video when we played a game with...

    RTX 4070Ti no display, BIOS issue?

    Yeah this sounds like a DOA card. Id next try 1) try the gpu in another pc if you can 2) clean the contacts on both mono and gpu with some contact cleaner and dry then re try 3) try with a riser cable if you have one (I've seen weirder fixes happen ). 4) again know this sounds stupid by...

    RTX 4070Ti no display, BIOS issue?

    True on the slots but if A 3090ti could bottleneck pci 3.0 and this card is (supposed to) compete with that, what info have you drawn your conclusion from? Op are you using a pcie riser cable? Or is the gpu connected DIRECTLY to the motherboard slot? I've recently had same issue as you after...

    Speaker Wire for Surrounds?

    Yeah well I'm just using kef eggs and q compact as rears in 7.1 atm. In my opinion rears and sides hardly matter much if they don't match, more l, r and c. The compact should sound diff to the eggs but they don't... Waste of money really (the eggs can be had for like £45 a pair online and are...

    Anyone else underwhelmed by 4k blu ray disc?

    Yeah I've turned off up scaling but the info bar on TV still says its getting 4k. Tbh though, if I can't tell, then goes without saying I'm not impressed anyway haha. So I've heard a few people with discs say they should be better pq and audio, that's why I went this route. Have you ever...

    Resident evil 6

    Literally one of the worst games I've played. Never tried so hard to like a game. I don't get how anyone can NOT hate it . What do you like about it? I loved re5, tried 7 but well stopped playing that although didn't seem bad. I hear 8 is real good, but more exited for silent hill 2 remake...

    Final Fantasy VII - "Remake"

    Can anyone who loves the original and like me hated the boring battle system in ffxv where you literally just have to keep pressing/hold attack down, is ffvii remake the same? My fears when I saw videos seemed to be confirmed... Atb is completely gone? No way I'm paying £60+ for a game I can't...

    XBOX Gamepass Ultimate conversion is back for £1

    Did you do the 3 year hack? I can't believe this still works? I thought ms were getting rid of gold altogether. Mines about to run out and had it for 3 years. Did Brazil thing so paid like £55.

    Anyone else underwhelmed by 4k blu ray disc?

    So I've waxed out on a shiny dolby vision 4k blu ray player (Panasonic 350ex or something), excellent picture quality Philips 55OLED706, then the £20 odd per film, but surprisingly, I'm actually finding 4k streaming on Netflix better quality (on the rare occasion I actually find something on...

    Speaker Wire for Surrounds?

    What is a more diffused speaker? The q150 have the tangerine wave guide over the tweeter, same as on my kef q550, isn't that a diffuser?

    Gloss white floor standers

    Looking nice mate. I was looking at those, are they the older 3050 in gloss, not the 3050i? I got some kef q550 in white. Really REALLY wanted that piano white gloss finish on the kef r500, but the amp to run them properly would have cost an extra £1000 or so. I looked into painting them but...

    Using dolby digital live in 2022

    Hi guys, just wondering what your thoughts are and could help with the following? 1) is there any reason to NOT use the old skool optical/toslink to connect HTPC to av receiver? 2) do games nowadays even NEED a sound card to output 5.1 sound to a receiver? Gone are the days of EAX sound and...

    [Solved] Constant 7.1 PCM

    It's weird my onkyo amp sometimes cuts off or in when no sound detected. Quite annoying as it makes a god awful noise. It's doesn't always do this though, only once every few days or so... and can't figure out why? Where did you see this "fixed pcm" on the amp? Thanks

    VRR question, Philips 55OLED706

    Thought it was a mistake buying a TV with little to no reviews. Will check av forums next time! Ahhhh the flickering is caused by VRR? Ahhhh actually no the flickering I get is on Netflix and 4k blu ray... Weird. My screen does seem to be changing brightness all the time though, no idea what's...

    Lost Internet connection, ethernet "unidentified network"

    Issue is I'm not even sure what fixed my issue, I'm not even convinced it's something I did so maybe issue with router or windows bug. Couple of work arounds though... 1) get a USB ethernet adapter 2) get a decent WiFi adapter 3) get a new router and set virgin/sky router to modem only...
