This Is Not a Bug but a Game Feature-Chapter 225 - 158: Does the 4090 Sound Better Than the 4060? (Part 2)

Chapter 225: Chapter 158: Does the 4090 Sound Better Than the 4060? (Part 2)

Let’s put it this way.

The new generation of Immortal Emperors all have very clean records, haven’t really seen any blood.

But as for the old-school Immortal Emperors, who’s hand hasn’t been stained with blood? Any old-school Immortal Emperor has essentially crushed dozens, even hundreds of graphics cards, definitely guilty.

Old-school Immortal Emperors total just a few hundred, never more than a thousand at their peak.

Back then, this title still had a lot of value, whenever people mentioned the Path to Immortality, fearful expressions would always appear on faces.

Who wouldn’t be afraid?

Players who made a name for themselves on the Path to Immortality and even reached the top as Immortal Emperors, every single one is the fiercest of the fierce.

For a general to succeed, countless bones wither; the birth of an Immortal Emperor requires treading on the corpses of at least dozens of graphics cards to ascend.

As for the current Immortal Emperors...

Although they have the strength, they are all flowers in a greenhouse, never having seen the truly terrifying side of the Path to Immortality.

This is really not Pan Yang being harsh.

Without seeing blood or having blasted enemy graphics cards, even if they have the corresponding strength, he doesn’t really acknowledge them.

But what can you do?

Reaching the realm of Immortal Emperor, everyone’s hardware levels are similar, even with an initial Extreme Sublimation, there’s no question of blasting anyone.

Under such circumstances, naturally there’s no chance to fight to the death and feel the humiliation of having your graphics card blown by someone.

As the first day of the new version update, entering the national "Star Emperor" requires queuing.

This really surprised Pan Yang, does this broken game require queuing now? Just how many players rushed in today?

Waited roughly for 15 minutes.

With the queue numbers cleared, Pan Yang finally entered the game and saw the familiar UI page.

"Path to Immortality, let’s match a game first."

Pan Yang logged in this time mainly to test the new Other-Transformation Freedom Technique in the Path to Immortality.

This update content can only be used after obtaining the Immortal Emperor title, definitely can’t be done on a small account, he must log into his main account.

The main account is an Immortal Emperor, matched opponents are all Immortal Emperors, even if dropped a level, it’s matching Quasi-Immortal Emperors.

The matching at this level is slow, often taking four to five minutes, sometimes, like in the middle of the night, can even take half an hour without finding an opponent.

The longest time...

If Pan Yang remembers correctly, there was once when he took the main account to fight on the Path to Immortality, and waited a full 78 minutes before matching an opponent of similar strength.

Luckily, today is the first day of the version update, and since the new version is closely related to Immortal Emperors, the number of Immortal Emperor players logging in today is quite large.

Only waited for tens of seconds, then Pan Yang matched a suitable opponent.

"OK!"

After entering the match, Pan Yang first typed a negotiation with the opponent, not to rush into action, he wanted to study the new Other-Transformation Freedom Technique.

The opponent was happy to agree.

This player also wanted to test the Other-Transformation Freedom Technique, so he negotiated with Pan Yang, each making one move to see how it works.

"You go first!"

Pan Yang thought of himself as a streamer, should be more modest, and he really wanted to know what the Other-Transformation Freedom Technique looked like from the enemy’s perspective.

So, he let the opponent make the first move.

He Transformed into the Ancient!

The player named "Modest Gentleman" didn’t hold back, since Pan Yang let him go first, he decisively activated the Other-Transformation Freedom Technique, summoning 7 Immortal Emperor avatars.

"Holy crap, is it dropping frames already?"

Seeing the frame rate drop on the top right of the screen, Pan Yang was a bit shocked, although he didn’t use the top-notch 4090Ti, it’s still a 4090.

Why is it already struggling?

And how come these summoned Immortal Emperor avatars immediately started Extreme Sublimation and bombarded him like crazy?

"It wasn’t me doing it..."

"Modest Gentleman" was also stunned, he summoned the Immortal Emperor avatars, originally thinking he would control them, but realized they acted automatically.

This is bad!

Directly seven Immortal Emperor level avatars activated Extreme Sublimation, and Pan Yang couldn’t defend, swallowed all the skills and was gone.

Yes, gone...

Seven Immortal Emperors of the same level, with a full-force blow from Extreme Sublimation, Pan Yang had no defense prepared, naturally lost everything.

But more than that, what shocked him even more was as the seven Immortal Emperor avatars attacked him, he saw the game frame rate dropped to 60 frames in the top right corner.

What does that mean?

It’s common knowledge that the minimum frame rate for "Star Emperor" is 60 frames, can’t be lower than 60.

Generally speaking, depending on different computer configurations, choosing the right game quality, the frame rate usually fluctuates around 70-90 frames, barely appearing in the sixties.

If the frame rate drops to 60 and doesn’t move, there’s only one reason: the graphics card is struggling...

Wotefa?

Although the game was still running, and the second round was about to start, Pan Yang still didn’t expect that even with a 4090, facing the attack of seven Immortal Emperor avatars, his memory nearly exploded?

Who would dare to believe this?

Luckily the graphics card held on, had it not held, black screen crashed by someone, wouldn’t he be laughed at by the livestream audience, becoming the disgrace of 4090?

"It’s my turn, it’s my turn!"

Getting swiped by the opponent in the last round, now it’s Pan Yang’s turn to act first.

He glanced at the "Other-Transformation Freedom Technique" button, then pressed it, with health instantly deducted by 10%, summoning one Immortal Emperor avatar.

Skill no cooldown, can keep pressing!

So Pan Yang pressed a few more times, directly summoning seven Immortal Emperor avatars. At the same time, his health was almost depleted.

As "Modest Gentleman" said, these Immortal Emperor avatars once summoned would automatically attack enemy targets, completely uncontrolled by the player.

Thus, "Modest Gentleman" also fell.

1:1, deciding round!

Each tested once before, no need to be polite for this deciding round, according to "Modest Gentleman," why not both use Other-Transformation Freedom Technique together, see whose summoned Immortal Emperor avatars are stronger.

They didn’t attack each other.

Only watching the battle between Immortal Emperor avatars, this way it’s very fair.

To avoid being killed by the aftermath of the fight, they each summoned a maximum of five Immortal Emperor avatars, preserving as much health as possible.

"Alright, agree with you."

Pan Yang agreed to this plan, so after both clicked ready, they stood still and began pulling the population.

In a blink of an eye, aside from Pan Yang and "Modest Gentleman," there were 10 more Immortal Emperors on the screen.

"Extreme Sublimation!"

These AI-controlled Immortal Emperor avatars start with Extreme Sublimation, then launched into a chaotic battle.

"Holy shit, holy shit!"

From the appearance of ten Immortal Emperor avatars, to their activation of Extreme Sublimation and chaotic fight, Pan Yang heard a terrifying noise.

The sound came from the case...

There’s no doubt that this must be the graphics card being maxed out, struggling to endure making noise.

But he’s using a 4090!

Ba, what are you doing?

Look what you’ve updated, even a guy using a 4090 is struggling, isn’t this too scary?

The chat was full of exclamations too.

No one has ever seen such a bloody Immortal Emperor battle, thinking that at the Immortal Emperor level, graphics card wailing should be impossible.

Who’d have thought, a seemingly insignificant version update would let them hear the wail from the 4090?

It’s really rare!

Not joking, 99 out of 100 people have never heard the wail of a 4090, given the level of these graphics cards, rarely encountering such high-pressure situations.

"I must say, the 4090’s wail sounds better than my 4060, no wonder it’s so expensive..."

One message in the chat went and completely broke Pan Yang’s defense.

Is your focus wrong?

Is this about whether the sound is pleasant? This is about whether the card will get blown up!

Also...

Bro spent so much to buy it home, not because it sounds nice! Even if it sounded awesome, it wouldn’t be worth ten grand!

4090, pull yourself together!

The noise is just too much during a ten Immortal Emperor brawl, Pan Yang thought his computer could handle it.

But as it turns out, it couldn’t.

Only held for a short 1 minute and 27 seconds, the ten Immortal Emperor brawl hadn’t ended yet, when he noticed the screen froze, and the mouse and keyboard weren’t responding.

This scene, familiar indeed...
