   Auto-battle versus manual for hard content (low-end setup)

   Speaking as someone who got it wrong initially, you get most of the benefit from the first adjustment; everything after that is marginal.

   Stutter on shader compilation — what actually fixes it

   This comes up a lot, so: this changed for me after the last patch, so older threads may steer you wrong. That fixed it for me, at least.

   Shader compilation on first launch — how long did yours take?

   Agreed on most of this, except that behaviour is intentional, even though it is poorly explained in-game. Let us know which part worked.

   Audio mix seems off in cutscenes for anyone else?

   [Rocket League] Frame generation — genuinely useful or just a number?

   I went through this last month. nine times out of ten it is a driver or a background process, not the thing you suspect. Worth a shot before anything drastic.

   Best budget mechanical keyboard you actually use

   I went through this last month. it depends heavily on your specific setup, so take any single number with a grain of salt.

   Best value pack in Neverness to Everness if you only buy one

   Had the exact same issue. it depends heavily on your specific setup, so take any single number with a grain of salt.

   Photo mode shots from the rooftops

   I went through this last month. verify the files before anything else; it catches more problems than people expect.

   [Apex Legends] Handheld PCs for the same library — worth having?

   In my testing, nine times out of ten it is a driver or a background process, not the thing you suspect.

    Is the World of Warships community as friendly as people say?

    This is the bit people miss — that behaviour is intentional, even though it is poorly explained in-game. Worth a shot before anything drastic.
