- dr3adward 7y agoSome people use their computer for more than trivial things like video games.
- xena 7y agoI use my tower for programming too, Doom Eternal is the fastest way I have to getting full load on the system though.
- dr3adward 7y agoThat's strange considering most games do not put a full load on your system, especially not the CPU. Doom Eternal, in particular, has both low GPU and CPU usage. So I'm having trouble seeing how you got your full load. How did you measure? MSI Afterburner + Riva Statistics Server for OSD is good for this. BTW: Death metal is a particular genre, and Doom's soundtrack is not it. This crap is death metal: https://youtu.be/482tDopNzoc?t=69 https://youtu.be/482tDopNzoc?t=69
- nilkn 7y agoDo you have an axe to grind against the blog’s author?
- dr3adward 7y agoNo, but the author is obviously not a hardware person. And anecdotes about perceived loudness does not contest reality. It's why we use dBA and temperatures as benchmarks.
- xena 7y agoI do not have a sound gauge, so the best I can give you is anecdotes. If this is insufficient, I accept donations and could arrange to receive a properly calibrated professional quality sound gauge to get a more precise answer.
