The missing part is that the user with a 4090 complaining had a CPU from 2017 πŸ₯΄

What’s a CPU bottleneck? I have the magic gpu

[–] capt_wolf@lemmy.world 29 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Yeah, I'm not buying that either. I'm on a 2014 i7 and a 3060 playing on ultra. My sole issue was not running on an SSD which I resolved yesterday. That kid is clearly playing on a potato and lying.

Lying at any framerate is still lying.

I'm shocked at home many PC users are still running HDDs given that SSDs have been standard ok consoles for three years now.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

They've pretty much been standard for gaming and containing the os on PC for 5 if not more. HDDs are still good for storage, but only luddites and people trying to save money in the stupidest way would have their games on them.

Playing on ultra on a 3060 ? So you're getting 20-30 fps? Because that's what it gets on mine with a much newer CPU. I had to turn it down to med-high to average 45 fps

Considering that this thing runs great on a Series S (which is CPU-heavy, but with a weak graphics card) that makes so much more sense.

[–] Annoyed_Crabby@monyet.cc 9 points 1 year ago

Lol, dude used up all the money to get a GPU.

Gotta love the Bethesda fanboys upvoting this one cherry picked comment. They're are like 70 comments in there with all different combos of system specs complaining about performance.
