In this stream I jump into Resident Evil: Requiem and put my RTX 5090 setup on the spot, live, with everything basically cranked. I’m running 1440p on an ASUS ROG 34" OLED (PG34WCDM), HDR set to auto (but I’ll tell you straight up: HDR can push OLED harder and I don’t love leaving it on because of burn-in risk), and I’m testing maxed graphics with path tracing, Reflex low latency, and DLSS set around 2x (I had upscaling on Balanced and talked about pushing it further if you guys wanted). The goal was simple: see what kind of real performance and temps you get when you stop babying settings and actually run the game like an “eye candy” showcase. I also walk through the full rig: ASUS ROG Crosshair X870E Hero, Ryzen 9800X3D, RTX 5090, 48GB DDR5-6000 CL30, and a 2TB PCIe Gen5 NVMe. While we’re playing, I’m watching GPU behavior like a hawk—VRAM usage hovering around 15–16GB with path tracing at 1440p, temps pushing into the low/mid 80s, and power draw being wild (even cutscenes showing low utilization but still pulling heavy wattage). On top of the gameplay, it’s a live AMA vibe—drivers (I’m still on older February drivers because I wait for stable releases), keyboard vs controller differences, and why this game’s optimization is honestly impressive even on weaker hardware.
