Some PC updates. RGBs: So I mentioned that reverting to a months old nvidia driver allowed me to sync my GPU with the rest of my RGBs in iCue. Well, Spider-Man forced me to update my driver because it was having graphical glitches on the old one. So for the last couple months I've been keeping an eye on r/nvidia whenever a new driver version comes out because that's where I found out it was driver-related. Conversation about this particular issue seemed to have died down, so today I went back to google to see if anything new came up. And, well, yeah... Turns out this entire time the issue could be fixed by running iCue as administrator. Setting it to always run as admin breaks the "launch on startup" option, so I have to start it manually every time but hey, at least I'm back to having a fully synced up PC! Random restarts: These happened very unpredictably so I'm really hesitant to claim anything definitively but I haven't had a single one since upgrading to a 1200W PSU. IIRC I only ever experienced them with FFVIIR and I was almost done with it when I did the upgrade but I finished it without experiencing any more and I've since spent a significant amount of time playing other demanding games without any issues. I can't rule out the possibility that there was something about FFVIIR in particular that taxed my 3080 in a weird way but otherwise I'm pretty sure Ghostwire Tokyo, GotG and Spider-Man were all more demanding since I played them with RTX on. So hopefully both of these issues are solved permanently!
