Thank you for the link! WN :) yes it was an hex editor based program, but I never tried. A bit tired right now to read the whole page, I will check it later. (y)


ahah those achievements!
That "It's over 9000" reference, only for otaku:LOL:

At least DBZ Kakarot doesn't make it sweat on 50% fans :ROFLMAO:

Oh ya, one more thing on the GPU note (thats not really the GPU), if a game launches Steam VR it automatically puts in a power setting override on your system, you can see them using powercfg in DOS, some games do that...for honestly idk what reason, I assume smooth gameplay but in other situations I actually think its just to make the game specs look higher lol.

Ever notice a non-VR game launches Steam VR, or even a 'potential' VR game running in Normal mode as a load option? Thats why ;)

Bright Memory Infinite Ray Tracing Benchmark does it actually.

It goes Kao Ken x100 :ROFLMAO:

Its called a hex editor :LOL: (not really, but thats what it is), usually stored in memory though unless your editing a sav file.

There ya go ken...have at it :ROFLMAO:

But ya, they have tons of those programs these days, my PS2 DVD to load the bootleg program menu had one built in...its alot easier on console because they have set memory points 'usually' and either way every machine is the same, PC is another story entirely.

Looks like my life...except the "how to teach a toddler version (or the president of the US)"

I'll try it for a laugh sometime heh.

Well I did sort of have it at almost ultra max settings with G-Sync enabled (luckily at 60fps) :LOL:

The intro video and title screen didn't make me think it would be so intense until it was too late lol.

Read above...I don't go light on my GPU because most games can't make it even sweat...NFS: Hot Pursuit (on absolute max) stays cool at 50% fans.

Hell, i just had Jumanji make it hit 57 degrees.

Few things you gotta keep in mind...

My fans were at half power (almost every time) because they normally don't need to go above that for my general type of games I play.

I have G-Sync, DLSS, all those extra features along with better max capabilities due to my card.

Games usually set the default settings on first load based on what your PC can handle, not a general basic list of settings.

Some games are just coded like shit, thats in truth a good part of the problem half the time, and anything that even expects online play or has character creation at all is going to be brutal with all the extra capabilities my GPU has regardless.

I'm also sitting a massive GPU vertically with a metal plate behind it keeping it steady (the vertical bracket built in) which it wasn't intended to do and the fans are blowing at 4" thick tempered glass in front with only a few inches of space where they would normally be blowing right out the top fans...on top of my rigs original design being intake based as far as fan setup before I owned the 3090 that i never reversed lol.

There are alot more factors in a rig with this much power than the simple fact of my GPU specs...its also running on an outdated processor, 32GB of RAM near it (which gets hot) on a PCI 3.0 extender cable whe the GPU can run at PCI 4.0 and it actually pulls at least the minimum to be considered PCI 4.0 when I test the PCI bandwidth with GPU-Z.

Simple version is I keep my fans at half power so it doesn't shake too much in the vertical position and I never see the heat coming until its too late, once I crank my fans to max Trine 4 ran fine and I'm sure this will too, same with Jumanji. It just expects my fans to be on auto and they're not.

Plus I was probably just smelling literal dust, it wasn't beat red yet (my color is temp based), but I don't like that or my processor getting close to top heat even though they would both survive it.

Rig holds up better than you would think

Seems like you got a decent rig by the other ones...and no offense russia but you ALSO got "Mystery Machine" which I never even thought possible.

So the Great and Legendary scores "with your hardware" were pretty much automatic trophies, all you had to do was run a test :LOL:

By the way, in case your interested (willing to risk a hack for trophies) there is a user who made a guide on there that will "supposedly" remote you into their machine and fake the trophy of running 3 GPUs (and probably the new 12 CPU cores trophy as well)...in reality they can all be scammed if you wanna risk your neck or steam account over it.

I'm not saying you did that, just an FYI since I know your a prize hunter, but the Mystery Machine I figured would take black market or a flashed fake BIOS to accomplish :LOL:

I'm interested, do you know WHAT piece of hardware you got that trophy by using? I really thought it was impossible to get without buying the hardware before it hit stores.

But considering the GPU concern people have been talking about lately and my comment above...heres a flat out Port Royal test ran right now after I simply removed the tempered glass blocking the GPU fans from my chassis.

That really your rig @zoliv? What did you put in that Tuna?

I figured the AMD processor would ruin my ancient one fucking up the total score, but you even decimated my GPU outright.

Ahh, your running your onboard graphics as well.

Regardless, Hail to the King!

EDIT:

I'm guessing your running a spanking new 4090 and probably a 32 core Threadripper or above, maybe a 16 core processor.

If I thought my hardware specs could be used against me I wouldn't have posted them...you actually have to be able to reach the hardware first :LOL:

So whats under the hood?
