Process for replacing PC in Multiplicity Stardock Forums

I have been using Multiplicity on my main desktop PC in order to access another PC on my network an have been quite happy with it. I am retiring my main desktop PC for a new build, hopefully this week. Are there licensing concerns as I go about installing Multiplicity on the new desktop PC in order to continue remote access to the network PC? Or is it as simple as installing Multiplicity on the new desktop PC and configuring it to properly access my network PC? Perhaps there's a documented pr

[quote who="Kazzerigian" reply="3" id="3635628"] If I ever have any issues with game updates I will make sure my GPU and audio drivers are up-to-date. And, if the game's from Steam, I'll right-click it in my Library, select Properties, click the Local Content tab, and either have it check the integrity of my local files or delete local files and re-install. No idea whether this will help in your instances. But it is the first thing I do whenever anything like this occurs. <b

Reply to GTX 1070 and 1080 in Ashes of the Singularity AshesoftheSingularity Forums

There is a lot of buzz right now about the 1080s that are in the benchmark database. I've skimmed some of that. Again, the 1080 will be king when released. But to me it's about more than that. nVidia's design is great for DX11. It's DX12 where it's either an unsound design or the drivers don't enable well, or a bit of both. And so far nVidia won't seemingly disclose their position. I contacted a tech writer I have faith

What bugs me is that, near the end of 2015, nVidia basically acknowledged that their GPUs/drivers (emphasis on drivers) weren't as well designed/developed for DX12 as AMDs. A lot of this discussion was about asynchronous compute but has widened a bit since. There is at least one post to that effect on this forum. And they implied that there would be something driver-based to help. This hasn't materialized and it's May. Now the big hype over the 10-series GPU

I'm guessing here, but it's an educated guess, that you're overheating. When your laptop overheats it pulls the CPU and GPU processing way down to protect them. I would do some search engine work looking for threads on your laptop model and overheating and find some suggestions. And make sure all your drivers and software is up to date for your laptop and your GPU. First, find some instructions for cleaning your cooling fans, etc. These will involve compressed air and remo

I sympathize. I'm lousy at RTS's in general but have friends that love them. So when this came along I jumped on it and early access just so (I hoped) I could get to understand it better and be better once it was out. It's easy for me to get overwhelmed when there's too much going on. All that said, this game is "easier" for me than most, I feel. The army management, number of units, buildings, and types help keep the micro-management down. &nbsp

Reply to Nvidia or AMD Video Card Better for AOTS? in Ashes of the Singularity AshesoftheSingularity Forums

The decision has many points: power consumption, heat generation, DX11 performance, DX12 performance, and of course price. Generally speaking, AMD generates more heat, consumes more power, and runs less expensive for similar performance. But this very much depends on exactly which GPUs you are comparing. If you're after top performance, the R9 Fury cards are beating the 980Ti in many benchmarks. Again, consider the power and heat issues AMD GP
