    I don't know if it IS the GPU really. My PC recently crapped itself and would boot up, but would permanently have a black screen. Lights on, fans running, everything seemed fine except the monitor received no input. I could see the graphics card fan whirring but there was no image. I'm now running off DVI ports and I just assumed either the GPU/graphics card died at some point. I was just wondering if I could pin down what was causing this before ringing up a tech guy. Figured it would help get it fixed faster if I could point out which component specifically had broken. *shrugs* Sorry I'm useless with computers :<

     

    My friend advised moving my graphics card / GPU into someone else's PC to test them individually but I can't do that so that's why I was wondering if I could test it myself.

    Well, as Kraszu mentioned above, if you have an integrated GPU in your motherboard, you can take your graphics card out and see if the integrated one works or not. I had a similar situation before where my screen would turn black randomly and it did turn out it was my GPU crapping out. Tested that by running a GPU benchmark program which would cause the blackscreen to happen consistently.  However since your screen is permanently black, its a lot harder to test. If I had to bet, I'd guess its your GPU, but its a lot harder to verify.

    If you really want to be thorough, I'd see if it works with different monitors, a different input wire, anything that could possibly be an issue.

    Ambassador

    • Players that are head-shot from across the map are expecting to see a Sniper in their death-cam, but they sometimes see (more often that we'd like) a Spy with a revolver
    • Goal: Reduce the effective combat range to something more reasonable and expected with the Spy
    • Changes:
      • First-shots are no longer perfectly accurate. Bullet-spread is instead reduced by 50%. This makes head shots less reliable at long range, while still very viable at close and medium-range.

    Who fucking asked for the Ambassador to be nerfed?

     

    Unrelated, whats the best way of having someone die in an "accident" with no traces?

    there you go


  4. Other than Wolfenstein, I thought it was a waste of a conference. I'm pretty worried about that community content thing because it screams "paid mods" under a different name.


  5. I don't like Bethesda very much as either a developer or publisher, but they generally still publish good games (Doom, Wolfenstein, Dishonored), so I have a little hope for that presentation. I'm more than ready for them to make a good game look bad like they did with DOOM at E3 2015 though.

    Please, with all these new people coming around, its opened new sources of rep deposits. Just because you don't know how to exploit the rep-ugees doesn't mean you should prevent those who can, ya dirty red.

    Oxygen Not Included is a good game in which you can literally become Hitler.

     

    Nice.

    If I can't literally become the fuhrer of the Third Reich in that game, then I'm gonna hold you accountable if I decide to buy it.


  8. Hello and welcome! If you'd please lay down on that table there, we'll start the operation to take your organs for our elder members procedure to initialize you into subSPUF proper.

    Thank you and enjoy your stay.

    I claim the right eye.

     


  9. Man I just can't believe its finally over.

     

    Say what you want about pacing, but damn did it make me feel something. I do think there's a lot of people who raised their expectations way too high though.

    Spoiler

    Seriously, Jack not going back to the past would have honestly been more predictable, so I'm glad they didn't backtrack on that.
