Tell me of these PSO private servers you speak of.

Are you a purist that says ketchup doesn't belong on hot dogs too?

This was pretty much a press release for the game.

MahLazer?

I have lived down the street from this place for over a decade and had no idea there was a history in their name. On top of that it is mediocre, overpriced, Tex-mex.

Good thing I have a theoretical degree in theoretical physics.

Honestly, I'm flummoxed.

To answer your original question: you can mainly tell by doing benchmarks and watching your CPU/GPU usage. If your CPU is maxed the whole time but your GPU is chilling at 50-60% usage while you're getting below 60 FPS, you likely have a CPU bottleneck. There are a number of free benchmarks out there, and several "AAA" games will typically have one too (Forza, Returnal, and many others) so you can tune your system.

So buying a 4080Ti without the supporting parts it needs will limit how much performance you can get out of it. Nowadays RAM typically is not the bottleneck.

I had a Ryzen 7 1700 with a 2070 non-super until earlier this year with next to no problems. The only reason I went to a 7800x3d was because it was bottlenecking the software I used to make music.

I like to earn my listens naturally! And I've made...checks notes $36 in 4 years!

Check me out if you want, new track tomorrow on SoundCloud!
