@civic cloud I might end up coping with a not-so-thick panel because they seem to be expensive asf since they're not standard size

civic cloud

Good to hear :D

#

If you want cheap but thick: look for kitchen countertops

my desk is an ikea kitchen countertop clown_alarm_clock

it was not that cheap tho

civic cloud

:(

rapid lake
#

Why is everything so gatekept

#

You can only get stuff from specialised places and everything costs a kidney Pepe_leave

civic cloud
#

Skill issue?

civic arch
#

is there any cheap audio interfaces

#

than can do like balanced out with a volume knob

#

24bit 48khz

#

finally got my monitors but my cable is less than optimal probably

#

sound amazing but cant be watching movies or youtube with that

#

currently using 3.5mm to 2 xlr but i think the 3.5mm is making bad contact

#

its trrs not trs plug

rapid lake
#

There was an audiophile here that could help you but I forgor who

nova steppe

Cora

nova steppe

#

i have a 3.5mm trs plug but i need to unsolder it to try

#

or i could just cut the cables and solder them together idk

civic arch
#

i think solo is cheaper

#

3rd gen is 80-90€

nova steppe
#

I forgot the solo existed, but the 2i2 has stereo out, idr if the solo has dual outputs

#

There's also behringer thats cheaper

civic arch
#

i think it dont have 24bit

#

audio

#

solo it has 2 6.3mm out

#

balanced too i think

#

6.3mm to xlr is also fine

That's nice

#

Though realistically you only really adjust your monitor's OSD settings once every 5 years, if at all

quaint helm
civic arch
#

i dont think i have opened the monitor osd in years

#

brightness is just 1 button so its easy to change

nova steppe
#

But I had the USB plugged in anyway because it has two USB ports on it, so I used it for my wheel and webcam

civic arch
#

cant dp or hdmi transfer data back to the monitor??

#

on linux i could change alot of osd settings in the os

#

just dp plugged in

if feeling cheeky

my pc specs are 7800x3d, 4070 super, 48gb @6000mt/s

Sell 16GB RAM and you can easily buy a top spec OLED

27 inch or ultrawide

junior flax
junior flax

mkay

#

and 1440p since that 4070 super is not running anything in 4k without struggling

junior flax
#

ya probs if it wont run 4k

rapid lake
#

Do you care for high refresh rate or

junior flax
rapid lake
#

Like, 500hz I mean

quaint helm
#

dual mode ig

junior flax
#

like if its worth it then yeah

#

i only have a 165hz monitor rn

quaint helm
#

4k + 720p those kind of monitor ig

rapid lake
quaint helm
junior flax
#

yeah 489

rapid lake
#

that cheap damn

#

ok we can do better then

quaint helm
#

i saw 1 4k 240 and 1080 480

#

but 780 pound lol

rapid lake
#

I'm looking at more expensive OLEDs but they have lower refresh rate than the gigabyte because 4K

#

But I guess you can't go wrong with the Asus ROG Strix OLED XG27AQWMG 27

junior flax
#

will my 4070 struggle bad with 4k?

quaint helm
#

a little yes

rapid lake
#

Probably especially since 12gb of vram

quaint helm
#

XG32UCWMG if u want 4k 240 and 1080 480 (the one that cost 780)

rapid lake
#

I think the ASUS is the brightest 1440p OLED so far

#

It's tandem WOLED

#

I'd probably go with that

#

280hz is plenty

quaint helm
#

i accidentally pressed desktop and what the fk is these

rapid lake
#

MSI MAG 272QP X50 if you want 500hz, but I don't think it's within budget FeelsCheekyMan

rapid lake
rapid lake
#

Yeah over budget by 100

junior flax
#

that could be fine

quaint helm
#

its ok he can sell his ram 🤓

rapid lake
#

It depends on what you prefer

junior flax
#

I LOVE MY RAM

rapid lake
#

Do you value better colours and higher brightness, or way higher refresh rate than the ASUS

#

Can your GPU even get 500hz in any games, consider that too unless you're upgrading later

quaint helm
rapid lake
#

Here yeah

quaint helm
#

asusssy we go

rapid lake
#

in general idk, but I don't think I've seen an ultra high refresh rate asus oled yet

rapid lake
#

280hz is plenty tbf

quaint helm
#

PG34WCDN , 360hz lol (ok nvm way off the budget)

junior flax
rapid lake
#

that's a 34 inch

#

is there a 27

quaint helm
#

wait theres a 500hz 27inch

rapid lake
#

Damn OLEDs are actually getting cheap wth

rapid lake
quaint helm
#

no tho

rapid lake
#

Yeah there isn't a tandem oled 500hz I think

quaint helm
#

qd oleg pepeLaughYou

rapid lake
#

only qd-oled

#

So I guess it's decided then

#

Although (personally) if I was upgrading from an IPS to an OLED I'd just go for the higher refresh rate, don't think I would notice the difference in colours from that to the tandem ngl

compact mica
junior flax

lol wtf

quaint helm
#

that psu......trust

quaint helm

#

hold up

#

is the ASUS ROG Swift OLED PG27AQWP-W out yet

Gah damn

#

So they exist just not anywhere within this price range

quaint helm
#

this tandem oled 540?

rapid lake
#

That's crazy tho

#

Yeah

#

oh is this the one with the active cooling or whatever it was they had at the back

quaint helm

welp trust me the user for these kind of monitor = sponsored,partner content creator lol

rapid lake
#

Yeah no one's buying this not even for business

quaint helm
#

what..........tf

junior flax
#

lol wtf

rapid lake
#

wait till you see the 1080hz one

quaint helm
#

o wait this one....came out in CES26 earlier this year

rapid lake
#

Oh that one's IPS lol

#

540 at 1440p, 1080hz at 720p

quaint helm

imagine oled prayge 3k for a monitor frfr

Ohkk guys

I think i got a 25000mAh power bank for like $18 from Bavin

#

22.5w

#

Damn my laptop's battery alone is 35000 mwh

quaint helm
#

from 1 and only ugreen

rapid lake
#

that's kinda small but it lasts 10 hours

rapid lake
#

But if you want the fast charging I guess

quaint helm
#

if i plug in powerbank that give around 20w my laptop take it as a battery extender instead of charging lol

rapid lake
quaint helm
#

yes ik its weird pepeLaughYou

rapid lake
#

I haven't tried charging my laptop with powerbank now that I think about it

#

But it only charges at 45 watts so I think it would be fine

quaint helm
#

i think 45 is good enough tbh

rapid lake
#

The laptop I mean, not the powerbank

#

It's plenty fast though and I mostly keep it plugged in

quaint helm

yeah same good enough

Like the notification system, all the ads that you keep getting from apps, the subsciptions, running apps on the background

The undeleted cache memory

Where does the high usage of the phone come from?

nova steppe

RenShrug
Depends per phone, ig. My phone "only" has 128 gigs of storage total, and i try to keep it below 105. (Only spotify cache keeps it that high)

And like the others said, check your background apps to see if it's taking up memory

focusrite scarllet solo 4th gen is probably the best choice

#

probably future proof

#

i could down the line buy an amp for headphones and just run it from the focusrite

#

if i need the extra

spare chasm
#

Someone help

#

Privacy error shit

#

I did everything and still not working

upbeat spade
#

if you want help from somebody, you would do well to give more information about what the problem is and what you did beyond "some shit is wrong i tried to fix it"

#

and if this is gta-related, send that information into #gta-tech-support instead - this is a community channel for tech enthusiasts

nova steppe
#

it depends on how high the output signal is, or if something else is introducing noise into the system

#

it can help, but nothing is guaranteed

#

example: I use guitar plugins on my PC, and if I'm using the scroll wheel on a web page or causing my screen to "update," you can hear the electrical noise in the output

#

but if you typically get a buzzing noise in your PC that's always there, it can help, yes

civic arch
#

do you plug them into like usb interface?+

#

in theory a dedicated dac should fix the issue i dont have a ground loop issue

#

either

#

all the pc outputs are noisy

#

which is weird if a phone like next to the pc has no interference

#

also then i get balanced so it cancels some of the noise

nova steppe
nova steppe
civic arch
#

oh i was thinking like a pedal

#

lmao

nova steppe
#

I've been using usb interfaces for my pc audio for close to 10 years now. I only use direct from the PC if I'm outputting to my a/v reciever for my speakers, or if I'm testing something

nova steppe
#

i use the scarlett as a preamp, and it just goes straight out the back then into the front of the 404

civic arch
#

and that does get noise from the pc?

#

maybe ill just get the scarllet and hope it fixes the noise

#

and i can use a xlr mic in the future which is nice

#

my current one is usb

#

atleast i can make my current cables work easily

#

just cut off the 3.5mm and separate and solder on stereo plugs

nova steppe
#

It can pick it up if you crank the gain, but I'd just be clipping all my inputs anyway

civic arch
#

i could get a scarlett solo 3rd gen for like 50€

#

used

#

good condition

#

probably worth it

#

i dont need the features of the 4th

#

probably fine for just monitors and headphone out when gaming

#

4th has a knob for both but ill never use both

upbeat spade
#

maybe my system is fucky

#

but my solo 3 has white noise while my pc output doesn't

nova steppe
#

any high-current switch (i.e. fans) always get caught by my interface(s)

upbeat spade

ok

wicked galleon
#

what are the units of a force

#

i genuinely cant find this

#

@upbeat spade

upbeat spade
#

you're asking two different questions now

#

forces are vector quantities, meaning they have a magnitude and direction

#

units of a force depend on the units of whatever you're working on

wicked galleon
#

ok

#

ok

upbeat spade
#

this is really fundamental theory
if you're not trolling and you're actually not being taught by your teacher, you have to teach yourself
read the book, search youtube with the title of the chapter you're on, etc.

#

i don't want to discourage you from asking questions, but people tend not to appreciate it when you treat them like google and ask them trivia

pearl notch
civic cloud
civic cloud
#

Literally first result

#

Force = mass * acceleration

#

Mass [kg], acceleration [m/s^2]

#

Means the unit of force is (kg*m)/s^2

#

and Newton is (kg*m)/s^2🤝

same lol

rapid lake
#

I wonder if it can be done with a single switch instead of whatever ts is

#

That would be a lot cleaner, and it's not like the loop can recreate the same structure with any number (i.e you give it a number n and it creates that triangle shape proportional to n)

Acutally I'm kinda bored let me try and make that

It sort of works I guess sob

There's one that specifically fixed GPUs

#

He can probably make a GPU's whole PCB from scratch perfectly and just solder the chip and vram onto it

quaint helm
#

i hope he will make something like 2x 5090's die on a PCB + 48GB

rapid lake
#

If there's a BIOS for it he probably will lmao

civic arch
#

i already have xlr cable

#

ill just cut the 3.5mm head off and split the cable

#

rn its like a y cable

#

and the focusrite has 6.3mm balanced out which cancels noise too

rapid lake
#

what's a good gaming headset that doesn't look cringe, under $100

#

Detachable mic is a must, bonus points for a detachable cable too

snow rover
#

idk doesn't exist

#

fractal scape doesn't look cringe but it's like 150

rapid lake
#

$170

civic arch
#

then get some iems

#

its actually very solid sounding mic for its price

#

and being made by razer

rapid lake
#

I mean your suggestion is pretty solid, and I've watched reviews on the razer mini seiren and was thinking of buying it, but I just don't like how iems feel

#

Btw my mobo doesn't have bluetooth so I'd prefer wired

#

I don't really care for wireless

civic arch
#

wired is the way to go imo

#

everything i use is wired too

#

mouse maybe wireless could be good

#

but wired i never need to charge

rapid lake
#

Yeah I only use wireless mouse

civic arch
#

did u look at any like hyperx

#

those headsets used to be solid

rapid lake
#

I have a hyperx cloud

#

But the stuff on the cushion peeled off in the first two weeks then kept leaving black bits over my ears

civic arch
#

best part about the fake leather pads

rapid lake
#

And they're just not aesthetically pleasing whatsoever, especially with their branding being all over their products and the red colour

civic arch
#

hell yeah

rapid lake
#

I want something "minimalist"

civic arch
#

idk i would personally recommend headphones and a separate mic

#

idk u can get hd560s from sennheiser for like 100€

#

open back tho so not for everyone

rapid lake
#

I think the cheapest sennheiser is the hd200 and they're meant for monitoring

#

lemme see

civic arch
#

oh its 120€

#

still crazy value

#

hd200 is minimalist atleast

rapid lake
#

Rip I can't find it here

civic arch
#

70 euro

rapid lake
civic arch
#

the hd200

rapid lake
#

90 here

civic arch
#

your basically stuck to gaming sets if u want under 100 dollars

#

most likely cant get separate

rapid lake
#

I can up the budget

#

I want to get a standalone mic but if something has a mic I want to be able to remove it

#

I can't stand it being in my face unless I'm gaming

civic arch
#

personally i think for a mic you cant beat the price of razer seiren mini

#

then the issue is picking the headphones

rapid lake
#

There's the hyperx solocast I believe

#

It's pretty similar in terms of sound and a bit cheaper here

#
  • I don't like razer as a brand
civic arch
#

yeah that looks solid too

#

mf discord certified

#

aint all microphones that

#

also has that thread for a stand if you ever get one

rapid lake
#

the HD560s look perfect and they're not overly expensive but I can't find a single place that sells 'em here

rapid lake
rapid lake
#

Discord in general makes any mic sound like shit

civic arch
#

usually sennheiser is sold everywhere

#

atleast in eu

#

headphones are kinda risky too

#

what might sound good to me wont be good to you

rapid lake
rapid lake
#

I don't have much preference

civic arch
#

these eq really well for gaming tho

#

i have like boost on 350hz 1khz 2khz

#

imaging is decent too

#

can hear the enemy cassidy stomping around

#

get the hd200??

#

they look kinda cheap tho with that leather

#

hd560s would be velour that wont leave residue

rapid lake
civic arch
#

i dont keep up with headphones much these days

rapid lake
#

But people that have used really good headphones don't hear things the same anymore

civic arch
#

can confirm

#

let people use my hifiman anandas and people were like wtf

#

then the cheaper closed backs sound just dull

#

dt770 has to be the worst headphone ever

snow rover
#

it's not

civic arch
#

they sound too sharp

#

ohh maybe the audio technica

#

is worse

#

athm50x

snow rover
#

m50x is also not even comfortable

civic arch
#

most comfortable headphones i have are sony mdr1

#

or the hd560s

#

the sonys are super old too

#

the hottest of hot in 2015 when i got them

gleaming scaffold
#

SHP 9500 is very comfortable

civic arch
#

philips?

gleaming scaffold
#

Yep

civic arch
#

damn i was thinking about those earlier

#

i could not find them

snow rover
#

discontinued

gleaming scaffold
#

They're pretty old

gleaming scaffold
snow rover
#

yes

#

has been for multiple years

gleaming scaffold
#

That's a shame

#

Was crazy good value

rapid lake
#

what is amazon doing lmao

#

what kinda bundle is this

#

I'd consider this

#

the blue yeti is the go-to mic afaik

civic arch
#

the hd560s apparently has no bass

#

but it feels like its better than the planars

#

way better soundstage on them but the bass is weaker

civic arch
rapid lake
#

Sennheiser sells socks btw

civic arch
#

i need those

#

does it have the sennheiser logo on like the ankle part

#

so you can wear shorts and flex those socks

rapid lake
#

maybe

civic cloud
rapid lake

I've used some knockoff beats that i got for $5

Now youre just making up names

Awful name sony, back to the drawing board

#

They are automatically disqualified for being on ear headphones

civic arch

#

The stupid callcenter headset we got at work is also on ear

#

Hurts so bad after 1-2hrs

#

@rapid lake do you have a new place or are you just looking at stuff because you're bored?

civic arch
#

i actually used the xz110 they aint bad

#

always look for stuff to buy

civic cloud
civic arch

my setup only needs a better monitor

rn its good

pc has ryzen 5 7500f and 7800xt with 180hz monitor rn

Hi just bored, im gauss

for audio its the hd560s and speakers are kali lp6v 2

this 180hz aint bad even tho

rapid lake
gleaming scaffold

civic arch

i think aoc had one too which is cheaper

#

zowie is stupid expensive

gleaming scaffold
#

true

civic arch
#

always an option to get 360hz oled too

quaint helm
#

zowie wroth like shit

rapid lake
civic arch
#

360hz with oled response times probably insanely good for reactive

#

and tracking in general

quaint helm
#

if u like color + high hz

civic cloud
civic arch
#

is tn like on par with oled in terms of response

#

and ghosting

#

rn on 180hz i can see some

rapid lake
#

I'm sure he'll say yes

civic arch
#

24" is better for gaming i feel like

gleaming scaffold

ye the motion clarity and latency is real good on TN monitors

27" is super big

They always be nitpicking

Nah i got it back just fine last (and first) time

Ive put a lot of scratches and dents into the floor here tho, so i hope they dont see it

rapid lake

How many holes did you have to fill

I havent filled them yet, i still live here...but total should be over 50 kekw

Moving furniture around?

civic cloud

The scratches are from moving furniture around despite the furniture having these lil fabric gliders

rapid lake

Ngl

civic cloud
#

And the worst dent was me hitting the floor with a hammer and also dropping a TV cabinet door while mounting it

rapid lake
#

Floors need sanding every couple years regardless

civic cloud
#

Yeah im not worried about the scratches

rapid lake
#

So it don't really matter

civic cloud
#

But the dent is bad

rapid lake
#

At least you didn't break the tile

civic cloud
#

Finger for scale

rapid lake
#

I dropped a jar of something on the ground once and it fully ripped part of the tile

civic cloud
#

I still need to try the ironing trick on this

rapid lake
#

I believe it was some type of ceramic

#

not wood

civic cloud

Changing tiles is a major pain

quaint helm

the jar didn't break

play 1440x1080 stretched

goated res

gleaming scaffold
civic arch

idk my res rn

rapid lake
#

I played on that res with 27 inch curved VA

civic arch
#

i just picked the one that made the picture good size

rapid lake
#

It was fine but I'm just bad at the game

civic arch
#

stretched has its advantages too

rapid lake
civic arch
#

not really

#

i dont need to look at them

rapid lake
gleaming scaffold
#

also lower res can be nice on comp games cuz u get thicker outlines on the enemies

rapid lake
#

It was awful

civic arch
#

16:9 after stretched feels like im shooting mf twigs

rapid lake
#

Everything's so thin

civic arch
#

yeah

civic arch
#

also they look so tall and thin

rapid lake
#

Also stretched makes everything feel fast

#

But controlled

civic arch
#

16:10 is good too

#

slight stretch

rapid lake
#

Vertical stretch

civic arch
#

i only play kovaaks these days mostly

#

no teammates to ruin my performance

rapid lake
#

You play an aim trainer?

civic arch
#

and i can listen to music and not miss any sound cues

rapid lake
civic arch
#

its fun

#

usually kovaaks then snowrunner

rapid lake
#

Play drg

civic arch
#

a bit of trucking never hurt anyone

rapid lake
#

I'll want to buy a new wheel once I move in

#

the g29 was kinda ass ngl

civic arch
#

snowrunner is super slow tho

#

its not like eurotruck

rapid lake
#

I haven't tried snowrunner

#

I've played mudrunner though it's nice

civic arch
#

its offroading and it can be delicate

rapid lake
#

It did keep me on edge though

ionic lodge
primal carbon
#

Road kings is gonna be fire

rapid lake
#

Yeah I would assume KEKW

#

Solo was kind of a nightmare

civic arch
#

wheel would be so nice to have but take so much space

#

my room is not infinite space

rapid lake
#

Getting stuck meant wasting like 45 minutes driving around the slowest vehicle in the game to go and get myself out

rapid lake
civic arch
#

snowrunner needs you to read the enviroment alot

#

beamng would be so fire on wheel too

rapid lake
#

I think an ideal setup for a wheel would be, main monitor on average desk, then second small desk with the second monitor being a TV and the wheel mounted on the desk

civic arch
#

geared wheels are kinda ass tho

#

direct drive is nice but expensive

rapid lake
#

there's the monza r3 or whatever it was

#

moza*

civic arch
#

maybe its an future upgrade i should make

#

i have already spend too much on this

rapid lake
#

Damn it's $400

civic arch
#

all the shit have is probablly like alot

#

go find a cheap car seat from a junkyard

#

then get some wood and build a seat

#

budget sim racing could be fun

nova steppe
rapid lake
#

You're a legend

#

My soul would die a little bit every time I changed direction and the gears clicked together

#

Funnily enough the shifter was the best part of the setup and it's not even good

quaint helm
#

i actually wonder is there anyone who buy blade in 2026

#

man who the hell need 64gb might as well exchange it for some insane oled panel like lumina pro or something

snow fiber
upbeat spade
#

the shifter is by far the worst part of logitech's entry level wheels, and you have to buy it separately on top of the wheel too
the worst part about the shifter is how easily it breaks, its internals are made of garbage plastic and it feels like a significantly lower standard of quality compared to the wheel itself
i think you'd genuinely be better off buying a shifter off aliexpress than the logitech shifter

#

the wheel itself is decent despite being gear driven
it's proven this by being like a two decade old design and still being good enough for people to use for ten years

#

people who didn't buy the shifter would probably disparage the pedal set instead because of the stupid foam pad in the brake pedal

#

the r3 is great, but it's like double the price of the g920 and you have to buy not only a shifter on top of it, but also a clutch pedal
and if coming from the g920, i'd rather move into an r5 instead

I asked this the other day but I’ll ask again since I was basically ignored what’s some good handhelds on the market was looking into rog ally’s and steam decks but the battery life on a steam deck is absolutely ahhh

upbeat spade
#

ayn thor

#

i haven't kept up with the ally ever since it released, i'm also curious how it is

pearl notch
#

Ik there’s plenty more options other than those 2 but 🤷🏻‍♂️ I’m not a huge pc head so idk what I should truly be looking into for a decent handheld and don’t feel like dropping 1k on something I’m not gonna like

upbeat spade
#

between the steam deck oled and ally x, you'd choose the steam deck oled because you want to play less demanding games and just want it to work, and you'd get the ally x if you want to run more demanding games

#

i think that's the starting point for thinning down what you want from the device: what exactly do you plan on playing on it

#

steam deck suffering the consequence of running on nearly 5 year old hardware, huh

pearl notch
#

Well I’d enjoy playing anything I can’t on console for start that really one of the reasons I’m staying away from rig ally Xbox edition cause I can just play at home probably more like pokemon rom hacks or stuff along those lines I’m not looking to play big AAA titles on a handheld I’m trying to be more realistic I just know from everybody who either has or had a steam deck the battery life isn’t the best

upbeat spade
#

i think the oled actually has decent battery life compared to other handhelds, and overall it's probably the best choice for someone who isn't playing demanding games and needs to run around a lot more
the ally x is more than just xbox integration, so i wouldn't compare it to having an xbox - it's called ally xbox because it comes with windows and can do whatever an xbox does on top of its normal functions

pearl notch
rapid lake
#

Good thing with the steam deck is you don't have to rebuy all your games

upbeat spade
#

but if you're just playing something like old pokemon games and rom hacks, legit you might rather get something like a miyoo handheld

rapid lake
#

Oh nvm... you're on xbox

upbeat spade
pearl notch
upbeat spade
#

you don't need to rebuy your games on any handheld unless it's a switch pepeLaughYou all of them can open steam, hell you could run bazzite or steamos instead of windows on the ally

pearl notch
#

So the steam deck oled would be okay if I’m just playing like rom hacks and lil bs like that?

#

I just don’t wanna spend this much money on something I could just go buy a pc for ya know

upbeat spade
#

yyyyeeeeah

#

honestly if you're literally just playing old pokemon games, i'd get a miyoo for like 80 bucks instead

#

i think those big handhelds only make sense because you want to play pc games on them

pearl notch
#

Ima look that up hold on

#

I high key always forget those things exist 💀

upbeat spade
#

yeah if you're not planning to play your pc games on the go and you're planning on emulating old handheld games, you're better off getting one of these retro emulators instead

#

cheaper and more convenient, unless you really value a larger screen (that imo, you shouldn't if you're playing retro games that came on older handhelds anyways)

pearl notch
#

I mean I would like to have the option later to download stuff like spider man or something but as of rn I just kinda want something I can get rom hacks on I own or will own most of the older gba pokemon games once I get my new gba sp

upbeat spade
#

damn bruh if you're getting a gba what you doing asking about modern handhelds OkayChamp

pearl notch
#

Can’t play rom hacks on a gba

upbeat spade
#

it's like me wanting to get an ayn thor to play ds games but i have a dsi, dsixl, and 3ds so there's no point in it

#

guess so

pearl notch
#

I’m not talking about like main stream rom hacks I wanna play some of the fan made games like pokemon team rocket

upbeat spade
#

yeah something like what miyoo puts out would be right for those games

pearl notch
#

Ye I’ll have to look into that more for sure! Thanks for the feedback 🙏🏻

#

Another reason I asked about big name handhelds is also because I’m used to my switch oled screen size but I guess that doesn’t really matter if I’m buying a gba kek

upbeat spade
#

save you a couple hundred bucks buying a steam deck just to play retro games OkayChamp think about modern handhelds later down the road when you plan on playing pc games on the go, if your plan is just emulating retro games like <6th gen pokemon or rom hacks then it makes far more sense to get a retro emulator

pearl notch
#

Fair enough those probably are a better bang for my buck vs dropping 1k on a steam deck to play emulators 💀

upbeat spade
#

switch 😭 i'm still struggling to understand why people are buying the re-released fr/lg when you could get the rom and emulate it instead

#

guess people don't have gba's and old ds hardware anymore

pearl notch
#

But in the future I do plan on making the move to pc at some point Xbox is moving towards that anyway and everyone else is the console game is kinda moving weird currently

upbeat spade
#

easier to buy into nostalgia when it works right out of the game store

pearl notch
upbeat spade
#

that's true, it only seems obvious to me because i've emulated old pokemon games on pc and on my phone

#

guess it is way more accessible for most people to just buy the port

pearl notch
#

Ye I don’t think an iPhone is the best for emulating either

upbeat spade
#

you can do it, i can't quite remember but i think i've emulated on my ipod touch 4 before

#

would even say that it should be easier now than it was before

pearl notch
#

Hmmm gotta look into that too I just figured the phones were like the computers and not great for gaming what so ever

upbeat spade
#

reddit might be able to help you out with finding some emulation apps

#

if you want to emulate ps games, i believe ios has had ppsspp for a while for example

#

for gba/ds i think it's delta

pearl notch
#

Anyway I’d like to thank you again for the feed back but it’s going on 5:30 pm and I’ve been up since 2:30am Sadge I’m sick and worked a 12 hour shift today ima probably play a bit of fr on my switch and crash BlobHeart I will take everything you’ve said into consideration as I research and choose what ima buy

upbeat spade
#

ye good evening and rest well

#

and since i'm a nerd, i'm still going to look at the ayn thor...

pearl notch
#

FeelsCheekyMan I’ll probably look into a few different things ngl

#

I really wanna play 5th gen pokemon games but I’m not paying $500 for pokemon black

#

Is the Thor the one that looks like a Ds

upbeat spade
#

yeh

upbeat spade
#

haven't played it yet, still has the previous owner's save

#

i also got heartgold with it which i haven't finished playing through

#

partially because i have no time, partially because it's two regions in one game, and partially because johto progression suckass

pearl notch
upbeat spade
#

but i don't wanna spend like ten hours grinding just to face the e4 😡 why did they make it so bad

pearl notch
#

Loool I’ve always enjoyed gen 2 but gen 3 will always have my heart fr lg ruby sapphire and emerald

#

Not a single bad game in the lot

upbeat spade
#

yeah

#

ten years ago i emulated and played through fr and emerald on my phone

#

gotta be the most convenient pokemon games to play

pearl notch
#

IMO emerald has to be the best game made

#

I’ve never played past gen 4

#

So I hear gen 5 is also super good just never experienced it when they came out I wasn’t really playing pokemon anymore

upbeat spade
#

same, i played d/p/p but when b/w came out i couldn't afford it, and by the time i could i had already lost interest in pokemon

#

i'm excited to try white now that i own it, but i gotta finish hg first lol

civic cloud
#

Heart Gold was SICK, two maps for the price of one AND a fun little pokewalker gadet????? Insane value

#

also an actual bossfight at the end of the game????

I mean Ik it’s basically the same but I always preferred soul silver I like lugia over hooh

Pretty sure if you had the egg in your party your steps counted as player steps

upbeat spade
#

yeah it's really hard to find now, and what's curious about the pokewalker is that it's actually the one of the most accurate pedometers ever made

#

it's really weird how they made a toy that is better than actual pedometers but if you ever wanted to actually count your steps, there ya go

pearl notch
#

Well that’s interesting

upbeat spade
#

it's pretty huge

#

one of the most accurate pedometers ever made, and it incentivizes you to walk by gamifying the system and allowing you to take your pokemon out with you?

#

forget pokemon go, there's no better way to get people fit

pearl notch
#

All this pokemon talk makes me wanna go back and watch indigo league

upbeat spade
#

a shame they only made the pokewalker for two games in a single generation

pearl notch
#

Probably due to sale issues it definitely increased the price of the game if i remember you could just buy hg or ss without it
