any tips about how to optimize factories to not burn CPU I mean it is for example good to use one belt speed for one Factory chain or multiple belt speeds don't use signs it should be fine so I don't know if if there's any specific like, tips we can give for CPU bound stuff specifically because don't play the game I guess is the is the tip kind of, the less belts the better I say

, but my just ballpark guess almost is that if you want your factory to be at a if you want your factory to be at a certain size and you reach that size and you start having FPS issues like changing very minute things about it but still keeping it overall the same like amount of busy is not going to do very much to save your FPS yeah and it's it's like there are so many there are so many mov Parts here and there's so many, it's it's hard to give General tips because you know if you have a factory where you need a lot of draw data scent and that's all CPU bound as well, that's bad but also yeah I don't think there's any good tips we can give really get a bit buy a more expensive CPU M, get the new 98x or 98 I, wait, yeah I think the new cuz- I think people always say like it's better to have, like a lot of people would argue that you would need a lot of threading for our game I think that's only true if you have if you play like 4K because I still think that most stuff in satisfactory is still very like single core will still get you more bang for your buck even though stuff is multi thread in our game interesting, because like I think people have told me that, cuz we play the game on very multi like we played on seon, CPUs and I think the 98x performs better than Zeon does and Zeon is very multi-threaded, it's it's like 128 cor or something like that in the Zeon processors and the game still runs better CPU bound wise, but the GPU will still get you further like a better GPU is more important than a good CPU but we have noticed one thing- I want to share this actually a fun little tidbit when we get crash we actually can see people's hardware and they're all Anonymous right one thing we have noticed is there tends to be a tendency for gamers to buy like really good gpus and have really bad CPUs and then they run into issues because their CPU is really old but they have a really good GPU, yeah just get a thread Ripper I don't think I honestly don't think a thread Ripper is good for our game, thread rippers is more for like more par like stuff that can easily more paralyzed, satis Factory is still very much a lot of single core stuff, so, so yeah yeah I got to get that 98 yeah exactly 9800x, I think that's still better because because I know that the 9800x is pretty bad when it comes to like productivity stuff and like the multi- threaded stuff but I think in our game it's still better than having, like compared to like the other ones like the 7950 and the 9950 I think it's still better to have like a fast, and you also have like the 3D caching on that one as well which also an aspect to it but it's it's it's kind of hard because it kind of depends on your factory as well so, yeah yeah anyways
