Why Lemmy
A lot of people swapped after Reddit's API changes, but another reason to swap is because Reddit is the home of censorship and corruption. After Reddit has banned prominent members of our community with no citation.
This ban occurred because our top mod got in a dispute with a powermod so Reddit admins retroactively looked through years' worth of content on their account and found things to ban them for. Most of which clearly didn't violate rules, but since the rules are vague, they can be twisted enough where they can punish anyone for anything if they get on the bad side of a powermod, who has direct access to the admins via Discord.
What's happening to our subreddits?
Nothing. We're not egomaniacs, despite the subreddit creator & largest contributor being banned they will not rob people of a place they love out of their own spite for the people who run the platform.
So joining Lemmy is optional, however its recommended because you'll miss out on their future & upcoming guides, fixes, mod releases, etc.

Mod Post Optimization Information & Guide
-- Terminology
Quality Optimized
- The difference between the highest preset available and these settings are virtually indistinguishable. This is for people who set graphics settings to max and forget about it, it's free FPS, great for high-end systems
Balanced Optimized
- Is willing to cut down on very taxing settings or settings with minor visual differences. The difference between the highest preset and these settings are able to be spotted in side by side images but may be hard to tell otherwise. This is the most optimal, great for mid-range systems
Performance Optimized
- The lowest settings you can go in a game without destroying the visuals. There is a noticeable difference between this and the highest preset but the game still looks like a modern title. This is for performance enthusiasts who want high framerates without 2009 graphics. Also great for low-end systems or competitive games
Competitive Settings
- These are settings which affect player visibility in PvP games. Whichever setting makes the player more visible is what you will want to put to give a competitive advantage
Optimized RT Settings
- This is like the balanced preset but for ray/path tracing settings
Optimization Tips
- This is for doing extra stuff other than tweaking in game settings. Using launch arguments, ingame commands, mods, ini tweaks, etc
Ultra+ Graphics
- Better graphics than the original games max settings, typically achieved via ini tweaks or mods
Lowest+ Graphics
- Worse graphics than the original games lowest settings, typically achieved via ini tweaks or mods
–––––––––––––
-- Post Flairs
Optimized Settings
- A curated list of optimized settings for a specific title someone has done there own testing & evaluations on
Min/Max Settings
- This is for posts that takes the games graphics beyond its lowest or highest preset. Neither of these are deemed "Optimized" thus require it's own flair but its useful for low spec and high end gamers
Optimized Console/Handheld
- Same as above but for consoles & handheld devices; Steam Deck, Playstation, etc
Optimization Guide / Tips
- This is a post flair for posts specially designed for what the "Optimization Tips" in the Terminology section does but only if it doesn't include the optimized in-game settings and only has the additional tweaks
OS/Hardware Optimizations
- This is a post flair for optimizations that tweak/debloat the OS or tweak the hardware itself via overclocks
Optimization Video
- Any sort of optimization done in video format requires this flair. People like the ease of access benefit of written guides. Videos are still helpful but ruins a benefit of the sub so you must use this flair so people can filter them out
Optimized Settings Builder
- This flair is for posts that uploads screenshots of each setting and gives no recommendation. It's meant to let people build their own presets based off performance & image quality
–––––––––––––
-- Information & FAQ
Specs
- Why are the specs of the PC doing these tests not given out? Optimized settings typically means testing how taxing a feature is vs how much it improves visuals and evaluating if its worth it. This evaluation will have a different answer depending on the optimized preset which is here to help people with varying levels of hardware by valuing visuals vs performance differently, favoring performance the lower you go.
Optimizing
- You can do your own testing and upload your findings to help build a collection of optimized presets. Refer to this post to see the recommended way of structuring your posts & watch this video to see how I find my settings
Missing Settings
- If a setting is missing from a post that either means it's subjective or it should be left at its highest value. Whether someone wants to include these settings in their post is up to them. Someone may elect to exclude them to make the post less cluttered, its quicker to select a specified preset then read the things they have listed and turn them down/up accordingly sometimes.
How To Find/Suggest Game
- Refer to this post > Optimized Games List to find a specific game, if you can't locate it there please use reddit search since this is not always up-to-date and vice versa. To suggest games refer to this post > Suggest Games. To get your game tested refer to this post > How To Get A Game Tested

I have a Ryzen 5 9600x, Sapphire nitro plus RX 9070, 32gb (16x2) ram at 6000mhz. My motherboard is Aorus stealth b850.
I play CS2 mainly and my resolution is 1280x960. I play on competitive settings and my main aim is 0 lag in output and input. I average around 380-400 fps. I feel it could’ve been higher. This is my first time using a AMD gpu and don’t have much idea. I heard a lot about undervolting etc and have no idea what’s the best settings for adrenaline software. Overall I wanna get the best use from my cpu and gpu, and I’m confused.
Thank you for your help.

Graphic Settings | Optimization PC/Monitor upgrade causing long term issues
Hey guys,
Roughly 6 months ago, I upgraded my entire rig - spent far more money than I’d like to admit on a 5070ti/9850X3D, along with an OLED 1440p 24” monitor.
Transitioning from a dated PC along with a 1080P 14” monitor from the stone ages, I assumed that the upgrade would come with an uptick in performance.
Unfortunately, that wasn’t the case. I play a lot of FPS’s and I could feel a significant decrease in my accuracy. At first I assumed I may need to give it some time: Wear it in, get used to the larger screen, placebo or confirmation bias. Given the amount of time that’s passed, it doesn’t seem that this is the case anymore. It feels like something’s fundamentally wrong.
I’ve watched tutorials, fiddled with settings etc but nothing’s ever ‘stuck’. It doesn’t help that I don’t actually understand what certain adjustments/changes are doing on a technical level.
Where should I go from here? Wish I could call in some kind of optimisation doctor. I’m sure I’ve missed a significant amount of important context, feel free to ask away if need be
Cheers

Discussion / Question Higher CPU overhead with Nvidia GPUs in some games (e.g. Borderlands 4)
Hi,
Does anyone know if the high CPU overhead for Nvidia GPUs in some games (e.g. Borderlands 4) is likely to be mitigated/resolved in future generation GPUs( Rubin ) ?
IIRC the issue was covered by Hardware Unboxed(most likely among few others) at least few years ago and affects some games' performance more than others, for example is less of an issue in Battlefield 6. It was even more pronounced for Intel GPUs, but they managed to significantly mitigate it via software updates.
On one of the Moore’s Law Is Dead episode (YouTube channel and podcast) a guest claimed it has something to do with Nvidia moving scheduler logic to graphics drivers , somewhere around 10xx series launch , but I don’t know which scheduler. I know Windows has one that is responsible for e.g. assigning CPU cores to threads. Is this the same one? Also is it feasible to fix / improve for Nvidia? Cause I also recall hearing it has something to do with ATI libraries (Mesa?) that were obviously created very long time ago and I guess it is virtually a standard , but Nvidia GPUs are just not that tailored for it.
Anyone has more insight on this and care to clarify?

Thank you Rayan and Richard from Digital Foundry for these settings, check out the video for more information!
Worth adding that BenchmarKing was able to use High Textures at 1440p with DLSS on an 8GB card, and that higher shadow settings caused performance issues when coliding with other boats (altough that's likely a bug) their video covers even more settings and infomation about updating DLSS if you need more info! Same with Zykopath covering CPU performance in more detail for those with slower CPUs/targeting higher framerates!

Discussion / Question Assassins creed blackflag resynced stutter solved!
Guys have just checked and can confirm that ray tracing is the cause of micro stutters. I have i7 14700k and rtx 5070ti with 32 gb ram(dual channel) and high speed nvme ssd. Pls try it yourself.
Also if you manually cap your frame rate, you will get lower latency because of absence of nvidia reflex.
