    Question Flickering textures - mostly shadows and foilage like bushes and trees. Happens in every game

    Thank you for responding. However, performance is not my issue. It's true that turning on Dynamic shadows is demanding but the overworld feels very bland without them, in my opinion. I would highly prefer to have them on, to the point where I don't even want to play the game if the shadows...

    Question Flickering textures - mostly shadows and foilage like bushes and trees. Happens in every game

    Here is an example video: View: https://youtu.be/LJBxj9ufobs For the best example, head to 0:24 seconds, where you can see both the trees and their shadows flickering. Note that when I select a character and let the camera follow them the issue get exacerbated. I can provide an example of...

    [SOLVED] Should I return my ‘base’ 5700XT and get a ‘custom’ one?

    I'm not going to open a GPU, especially a $430 one. I'll leave that kind of stuff to the more experienced users and people who live and breath tech. :)

    [SOLVED] Should I return my ‘base’ 5700XT and get a ‘custom’ one?

    Unfortunately the Red Devil doesn’t have a vendor that sells in my country (Holland), yet. Should I wait until it does or buy a different model? Edit: I just realised you answered my question and I went ahead and asked another one. Thank you for your advice :)

    [SOLVED] Should I return my ‘base’ 5700XT and get a ‘custom’ one?

    Apostrophes because I’m not sure about the correct terms. I just recently bought a MSI 5700xt and was ignorant to the fact that custom cards of the same GPU can run cooler and more quite (e.g the Red Devil). Should I return it buy a custom one for between 30-60 bucks more? I got the card for...

    [SOLVED] My I5 9600k clock speed rapidly goes up and down. Normal?

    It worked, somewhat. My CPU is back to alternating between ~800mhz and ~4500mhz at near idle load (is perfect idle load even achievable? It seems to - even with nothing running - never go to 0% load but go between 1% and 3%) (It does reach 0% load sometimes with just the taskbar active) which I...

    [SOLVED] My I5 9600k clock speed rapidly goes up and down. Normal?

    So, Intel speedstep was already enabled. Intel C-state was also already on auto. I found a ‘package C state limit’ which had a number of C states including C6, C7 and C7s. I went ahead and put in on C7. I disabled Intel Speed Shift. I will exit BIOS now and monitor my CPU idle clock speed...

    Great to hear. The Memtest is nearly complete. Will do those settings in just a bit.

    [SOLVED] My I5 9600k clock speed rapidly goes up and down. Normal?

    I have a Seasonic Focus Plus Gold 650. I’ve looked online and have not found any information about whether its compliant. Is it fair to assume it is since its not a 520 or 620w model. I’m running Passmark Memtest 86 at the moment. Once that is complete I will; Make sure Intel speedstep is...

    [SOLVED] My I5 9600k clock speed rapidly goes up and down. Normal?

    I went ahead and put the min processor power state to 8% but the CPU's clock speed remains at max ~4400mhz at idle load.

    [SOLVED] My I5 9600k clock speed rapidly goes up and down. Normal?

    Just today I built my first gaming PC and am encountering things that I don't know if they are normal or not. This is my first real PC so please forgive me if this is a stupid question. Anyway, I am monitoring my cpu and noticed that every second or so its clock speed switches between its...
