The comment makes complete sense now.

But bg3 black hounds wasn’t Larian. That was Blackisle and it got canceled. It wasn’t the same game or the same studio.

I am about to finish Starfield. I did not enjoy my time with it. Luckily, I played it on gamepass, so very little monetary value was lost.

Might revisit once creation kit is up. That was the only way Fallout 4 was enjoyable for me.

I will head back to finishing my bg3 evil play through, filling the gaps with Darktide.

I have 1500 cargo space on my class A. 90% of it is resources and ship repair parts.

I just hate this game loop.

Man, my class A 90% of the weight is resources. I absolutely fucking hate it. I feel like I am being punished for doing their stupid mining mini game.

In Starfield lows with a vanilla 6800 drop below 60 fps at 1080p HIGH as per hardware unboxed testing.

PCIE scaling is in low single digit percentages, so it isn’t an issue unless you are min/maxing.

Gamers nexus and hardware unboxed did gpu reviews for starfield. Do NOT get a 6700 xt or 6750xt like someone suggested.

You need a 6800 xt for stable 60 fps.

But you are worried about electricity cost, the rdna2 and rdna3 series is VERY inefficient (stock).

You can pay upfront for a more efficient 4070 ti/4080, or maybe pay more per lifetime with rdna 2/3.

As for the rest, you don’t wana hear it but… your rig is old my dude.

You could probably reuse the ram if you went intel.

Psus have a finite lifetime. Make sure to put money aside for when it dies.

What case do you have? Gpus have gotten BIG.

Where do you live? Microcenter has great deals right now for last gen stuff.

Edit: What resolution is your monitor? The lower the resolution, the more important the cpu is due to bottlenecking in modern games.

Edit2: hardware unboxed JUST did a video on starfield’s cpu limit. Definitely check that out.

Asking your community for help before dropping hundreds of dollars isn’t a physical or non physical issue.

As I said in my replies. The internet is vast, there isn’t a remote possibility that they are near other beeple that would be willing to handle it?

If they were in illinois or southern wisconsin, I could have done it for free.

I have also remotely, through video call, walked people through replacing computer parts with no issues.

It doesn’t matter if it is a physical or software problem. There are alternatives to being hundreds of dollars in the red.

The EA tutorial was longer and MUCH more explicit. I was very surprised they truncated it.

The internet is a vast place, maybe someone would be in your area. If you were in illinois, I would have offered to fix your computer for free, because I thought beehaw community was supposed to be nice.

Apparently fucking not.

I’m not sure why it being physical makes a difference in asking for help, but okay.

Why not mention the computer issues here? You might have found someone wiling to fix it for free.
