Kinda nifty
You could probably work around this by changing the fan curve and using an fps cap.
don’t think so, fans likely have little to do with it. it’s the actual preparatory rendering being done when an object still obscured by a wall enters your fov that creates the interference that is picked up by the mic. I’m guessing a noise gate would mostly eliminate this channel of attack
Is it about the literal sound of the GPU fans, or is it electronic noise that’s bleeding over into the microphone and not being correctly scrubbed, either because the microphone cable is basically one big antenna or because it causes some sort of interference on the motherboard itself?
Only useful at LAN which I guess is the point. I’m not sure when I’ve had access to my opponents’s microphone and that wouldn’t have been advantageous. My friend got very far in ESEA because the power draw on his system would noticeably increase when people were pushing the single spot he’d hold.
I’m pretty sure it’s been demonstrated that you can reconstruct soundwaves from the vibrations of a reflective surface and thereby use a beam of light to spy on a verbal conversation.
same guy who invented the theremin!! (although the thing used radio waves, it wasn’t a laser microphone)
