Bf5 (2018) on a 1035g1 (2019)

TLDR: You can optimize the *SHIT* out of even the most budget computer ($100-400 used) to play modern AAA games

This is huge... Yesterday I made a post about myself getting my ultra budget, lowest tier, BS office laptop from 2019 to play bf4 (2013)on up to high settings... Today it played bf5 (2018) and it was actually playable...

Let me be VERY clear on what this means: this CPUs integrated graphics gets outperformed by Intel's n97. The CPU is barely faster than the n95 and n100.

The 1035g series came in g1, g4, and g7 as efficient, budget focused laptop CPUs. The G1 is the weakest... But with some messing around, it can play a flagship AAA game that came out only a year before the chip was released with massive maps and 64 players and still held 25-30fps... With only 8gb of ram btw...

There are MANY office and mini PCs that come with AMD chips with vega 7/11 and 740/780m igpus that absolutely CRUSH this chip's igpu by a mile that you can get off eBay for ~$100-400, many with up to 16gb of ram! (Hp elitedesks 705 g5 for example has a 3400g and goes for ~$150 or less)

What do you guys think??

Sidenote; I have a legit PC, I got this bad boy for free and use it to mess around and test shit

Bf4 on a 1035g1 from 2019

Lowest settings, used CRU to get my native resolution to 960x540 lol

It actually plays pretty well, charging up my kids tablet to use it as a monitor so the 540p doesn't looks so... 540-y

Side note: I have a legit PC, I got this laptop for free and use it to test stuff

What was Hitler's commute to work?

Like, he had a house I assume, and a place where his "politics" had their home base... I'm assuming he wasn't taking Luftwaffe one back and forth, so did he have a car and a set route he'd take to the office?

I'd assume it was different from when he was trying to establish himself in politics, to when he got in, to when he was full blown "him"... If you have an answer to all three stages, I wish you the highest upvotes :)

"Something something something... COMES"

Female singer, probably 2010s, maybe 2020s.

Very mellow song, kind of quiet where the instrumentals are about the same focus as the singing.

I think I was driving at night in a video game when I heard it, not sure if it was Spotify playing or the soundtrack...

I think the lyrics were, quietly "when the night..." There was a pause, then "COMES" and then a bit louder instrumental but I could be dead wrong

It wasn't "singing", more like carrying notes while talking and I don't think they were "normal" instruments, more like something a computerized sound machine would make

You know the trick of imagining a string attaching your steering wheel to the pedal? The more you steer, the less gas you should use (in theory)..

Gas: up left joystick

Brake: down left joystick

Steering: normal left/right on left joystick

It's weird and you'd have to completely relearn muscle memory but it does exactly that.. the gas and brake pressure are in proportion to how far you're steering.

My brain screams "this is wrong", and I'm not sure I'll opt into it fully, but the little practice I've done it's been incredibly smooth with weight transfer around corners.

What do you controller guys think?

Is it just a thing with these old racers or is it a tuning issue that the bottom of the wheels come a lot closer during a turn? Like that physically doesn't make sense??

The camber setting is -1.7 front -0.7 back... The stock tune had +24.5 front 0 back (history fact: it has to do with pre-war tires which were called bias-ply tires that had very soft flexible sidewalls which would be rode on in corners because the suspension at the time couldn't maintain camber at those speeds [basically])
