  • Just to add another data point, I have the same experience on windows and haven’t been able to solve it. I’m on windows 10, also an 8700k, and an RTX 3090. This build has no issues running modern stuff like cyberpunk /w ultra raytracing, starfield, bg3, etc.

    Performance was never perfect but it absolutely tanked a few major updates ago. I THINK it was around the time the performance issues cropped up on the series x as well.

    If you find any cause other than just “doesn’t play nice with older Intel CPUs” I’d love to know.



  • Yes consumables are on a recharge system now. Finding/buying/crafting say, a particular legendary grenade is a big deal now, as it becomes a permanent part of your arsenal.

    Personally I’m all for the change since it removes the whole “I’ll save this for when I really need it but never actually use it” temptation. Plus more choices about how to spend resources.






  • Just FYI - ammo doesn’t weigh anything. I didn’t notice this for quite a while. If you have some cash go by a couple of gun/ammo shops and just buy out like, all of it. Pretty quickly you’ll get to the point where you have plenty of ammo for any gun you pick up. IMO the upfront cost is super worth not having to worry about having ammo for one gun or the other.

    It SEEMS so, but they also don’t have any HDR options and no way to tweak brightness so even if it’s technically “on” it doesn’t look right. I bought it from the Xbox store for pc/Xbox cross saves so I may experiment with it on the series x tomorrow. I just don’t want to choose between high frame rate and HDR.

    This is most likely just coping, but I’m thinking MAYBE the big day 1 patch might fix this stuff? It’s pretty close to false advertising to list HDR10 on the msft store and have it simply not be there on the platform I primarily bought it for.

    Not in this case. I’m using a 3090 and an LG C2 OLED, both extremely competent for HDR games. In fact I’m not sure if I’ve played anything this year that didn’t support it (outside of a few indie games).

    There’s simply no option to enable it in settings, and it doesn’t kick on automatically. This TV will also flash an HDR logo if it gets an HDR signal, and very obviously kick into that mode.
