    I had the CX48 for a year then went to AW OLED then got rid of that and went to C2 48 - once youre there its hard to go anywhere else.

    Went to C2 from AW OLED, 48 inches just feels right. Also https://www.centralcomputer.com/thermal-grizzly-tg-cf-i12g-intel-12th-gen-cpu-contact-frame.html For anyone who was interested in one since it's sold out everywhere else.

    Yeah QLED is nice and bright but in the end its not OLED or QDOLED and thats the bottom line in the end - been playing on QLED since CX first came out and now using a QDOLED, cant think of going back to normal panels or even QLED.

    Yeah i saw that just waiting - Torrent so far is my favorite case and that would look sweet inside the case. I saw it in Splave system using copper and its a good product but it was limited to good temps in TR only so ive ignored it for the most part.

    So i REALLY want to get a ProSiphon IceGiant Elite to put into my Torrent but from everything i read it doesnt make proper contact with smaller die sizes like it does on the TRs so they run warmer. I was considering getting the Thermal Grizzly contact from but theyre super sold out. Has anyone...

    Eventually was able to adjust back down to 34 inch from the massive CX48 and picked up a 3090Ti so it makes good use of the 1440p175gz panel League of Legends has never looked so good, ive got all these frames! I also have a 3090FE for sale, kinda sorta - may stick it in test bench since...

    $230 for an AIO? Its not even one of those overpriced NZXTs its a thermaltake! You may as well get the Artic Freezer II for much cheaper Also cant get behind this https://pcpartpicker.com/guide/kM7Ycf/enthusiast-intel-gamingstreaming-build <--- no 3070Ti when for the wiggle room left you can...

    I havent beyond the Torrent build im using now. I want to build something in the Azza Regis and the Hyte Y60 but i was waiting to see if AMD or Nvidia would put out some dates of releases. I dont have any reason to build anything currently unless i do another AMD build with the 5800X3D and...

    Lol i havent scalped in about a year - i left the game before prices went and skyrocketed. Thinking of all those cards i only sold $200 over cost and people were super fuckin angry over it! The miner near me has been getting the A100s or whatever now and ignoring the normal cards just because...

    Anyways - Im sure everyone has noticed its that time of year again where people plan their upcoming generational PC changes and what they should and should not upgrade to. AMD has CPUs and GPUs coming out this year, Nvidia has GPUs within next 4 months id assume. Intell Raptor Lake is scheduled...

    The DELL 32 is quite popular and known as a good monitor. If he gets grump remind of of how ungrateful he as you tried to make him happy!

    Yeah curved on small monitors is another type of "wtf" because its not like theyre big and unless youre sitting too fn close its pointless. Not to mention Odyssey monitors usually have that sharp curve thats even more annoying on a small monitor.

    Got the AW3423DW today and im pretty sure im going to just stick to the CX48. I cant tell the difference between the Gsync Ult and Compat at all, and while it hits 175hz it doesnt seem different enough from the 120 my CX was doing. I will fiddle with it a bit more but i see no reason to keep it...

    Thor: Love and Thunder (2021)

    Depends, in some scenes he looks like Christian Bale and in some others he looks more like Gorr, im not going to complain until i see the finished product. You guys already know Marvel uses alot of bait and switch with commercial vs finished product so no use assuming the finished product over...

    For his range likely not but depends on his monitor - if hes going 1080p he can use the 5800X3D w/ a 6800 or 6800XT and it will still fit his price range. Gaming wise the 5800X3D is pretty sweet more so than 12th gen. Honestly id tell him to wait 4-5 months for a new build but its his decision...

    Thor: Love and Thunder (2021)

    Gorr is interesting, in some shots he looks like Christian Bale in makeup, in some he actually looks like a villain. I somewhat feel this is Marvel fucking with us like when Tomm Holland was at the statue of liberty solo when in fact the other 2 were on the same scene.

    Lol, Android app store is a plague and the OS just isnt near as snappy as iOS. I fiddled with the Z Fold 3 again for a week but its just not as smooth an experience using Android vs using iOS. I used Android for a good 5+ years before finally trying an Iphone but once you actually use it - it...

    OLED tech beyond QDOLED seems to have halted to the point i cant bother upgrading my CX48. I thought the QDOLED would do it but i dont want 1440p and the C2 just isnt enough of an upgrade to ditch the CX. Hopefully a 4k QDOLED display smaller than 55 inches comes out at some point to incite a...

    I dont think the FEs make noise themselves, atleast i dont hear anything from my 3090 - However i could be wrong and just have music or something else drowning it out.

    Enjoyed this, not amazing as Spider-Man and I’m curious how Scarlet will come back from this but I give it an 8 only because I feel she did a great job of her portrayal of that role in this movie. Her crazy and justification was on a whole other level.

    Not sure why at 1395 I suddenly got blah on doing the honing failure spam all over again. Even with all the mats given it was very reminiscent of going to 1370 and chugging through heaps of mats for minimal gains.
