I gave it to my brother

sweet jetty
#

Im not being an apple stan here but if you're in market for a tablet, I'd probably just get an ipad

wispy marsh
#

The thing runs iOS16 and is showing its age

sweet jetty
#

Apple is on a different level in software tablet wise

#

My cousin still uses an ipad 6 from freakin 2018, it isn't like she can't get a new one, she doesn't need it, it still works like a charm for note taking and sometimes classes

wispy marsh
#

Oh, her's is a year newer than mine's

#

I switched to a 2020 iPad afterwards

#

I just realised 2020 is going to be 4y ago and not 2y ago

Newer PSUs use the ATX3.0 standard for GPU power

#

Older PSUs do not, and only use the larger ATX 2.0 cables

#

You can't directly use ATX 2.0 and ATX 3.0 ports/cables with each other and vice versa

There are specialised converters, be warned that earlier/current ATX 3.0 cables can cause fires. These have the longer sense pins and shorter amount of contact surface between some cables and ports especially on the gpu side

The government isn’t giving them anything. Pls check your facts.

Also: government’s primary role is to protect the people. So even if they were: oh well!

#

I just wanna know why this cooler is very asymmetrical

olive saffron
#

I have more questions of why the 2 fans are in different height tbh

polar fern
#

It’s like a ramp

#

Prolly to clear memory on one side & i/o shield on the other but still looks goofy

olive saffron
#

But memory is on the low fan side

#

Which you are getting even less mem clearance

#

Unless you use the rear of the case as Intake I guess

polar fern
#

Mhm but if you notice.. the fins on the aft end are actually slightly longer in the horizontal

#

The whole thing is very asymmetrical, and it’s hilarious

olive saffron
#

No?

#

Both sides have clearance fins at bottom

polar fern
#

Yeah, but they’re not the same length

#

Both fin stacks have fins that are different lengths

olive saffron
#

Wait wtf

polar fern
#

Ye

olive saffron
#

I thought it's just perspective

#

But yeah you right

polar fern
#

I thought that too, at first, but no.. they are actually longer if you look at where the heat pipe bracket is

#

Well, the rear fin stack might be longer because it’s already getting slightly warmer air that’s all I can guess

#

The bottom fins on the rear fin stack also face down towards the i/o shield

olive saffron
#

But they are making 3 sizes of fins

polar fern
#

Hehe

olive saffron
#

This makes no sense

polar fern
#

Technically 4 sizes, and one is flat on the rear vs down angled

olive saffron
#

Yeah

polar fern
#

That’s a lot of fab for such a cheap cooler

#

$57

olive saffron
#

Unnecessary ones as well

#

Someone on the rnd was feeling chaotic

polar fern
#

The heat pipes aren’t even full contact

#

They sit on a mounting plate

olive saffron
#

Bruh did not even notice that

polar fern
#

Hot garbage

#

I’m sure someone would love to have one in their system to make it look pretty though

dreamy rose
polar fern
#

There are actually two whole separate versions of this cooler, but they are the same model

#

Someone was clearly drunk

olive saffron
#

Around this price point, you also have PA120 ARGB

#

and they have white version as well

polar fern
#

It does have argb

#

OK. The second version of this thing is way more symmetrical, except for the front fan.

#

The fins are still slightly different sizes, but not nearly as much

#

They probably decided that all of the different fin sizes and shapes were a waste of money

olive saffron
#

But tbf, I had to convince someone in a group chat to not buy a cooler that will throttle his cpu like he'll and go buy a equally white PA120

#

For like more than half an hour

polar fern
#

🤦‍♂️

olive saffron
#

I personally don't really understand people who want style in their pc when they are on a budget

polar fern
#

That reminds me - I have to put the mounting brackets back on the board when I get the wraith prism cooler

#

Yes, that is a copper contact plate

dreamy rose
polar fern
#

It is rated at 105 watts cooling

olive saffron
#

And amd proceeds to not include it in most of their models

polar fern
#

It comes with the ryzen 9’s I believe

#

And the zen 2 ryzen 7’s

olive saffron
#

But at that point it is not good enough to cool

#

Yeah

#

Like zen 2 r7 was like "this is good enough to somewhat cool it"

#

They should provide those to r5, without rgb

#

So you have a avid cooler out of thr box

polar fern
#

I do believe they plan to come out with an update, but if you are getting a ryzen 9 tier processor, you probably also have the money for a cooling solution that can do better than what they put in the box

#

The main reason for me, getting this is part futureproofing, and part the fact that the wraith spire that I am using right now is not the more efficient cooling of the two types that they produced

#

The wraith spire that comes with the APU’s is solid alu. The ones the came with The regular processors have a copper vapour chamber

#

The copper vapour chamber actually gives about 10 W additional cooling

#

Does not sound like much, but it does make a difference

I often use an external DAC so it took me a while to connect my headphones to the onboard audio and realize it's not working. I hear buzzing noises and nothing else, whether it's connected to the front or back panels. Microphone doesn't work either

Oh no, how terrible

Not even to everyone, just certain “races” if you wanna call it that

What’s it rated to cool???

olive saffron
#

It's not direct contact heatpipe tho

#

No, it’s not, but the contact plate is copper

Trying to get that many heat pipes to be flat with be basically impractical

Dr g medical examiner is on YouTube

will the performance also be better like on a native 1080p monitor

gleaming compass
#

what is the diagonal size of the monitor and viewing distance?

haughty kayak
#

27'' idk abt the viewing distance

gleaming compass
#

at a comfortable viewing distance for a movie on a 27", you probably won't notice line doubling every third line which can be done cheaply and have very little performance impact

#

if you are going to slew the color to more evenly scale it up, then there will be some performance impact depending on if the video card provides the scaling in hardware or if you are doing it in software

#

nice thing about 4K resolution is playback of 1080p is simply line doubling every single line

#

it scales evenly at very little cost

haughty kayak
#

too broke for a 4k monitor xd

#

need atleast 144hz and in my country they start at 500$

gleaming compass
#

if you are looking for if the upscaler is doing lazy doubling of every third line then you probably are watching the wrong movie in the first place

#

a bluray of Citizen Kane on a 1440p should look perfectly fine because the focus should be on the movie

haughty kayak
#

i need it for gaming

gleaming compass
#

but ... rosebud!

#

sigh

haughty kayak
#

with games getting more demandig these days i just want to make sure that just in case i can lower the res on a 1440p monitor without it looking bad and giving me a performance boost

gleaming compass
#

best gaming display I ever owned was a Samsung CRT that did 720p and nearly zero latency

#

LTT did an episode on CRT gaming

haughty kayak
#

thats awesome for some older games tho

gleaming compass
#

I find older games had been put through better player testing, have better mods to overcome their limitations and just are overall more fun

#

if you are into a flight simulator then you may notice improvement using 1440p

#

other games ... I don't know

haughty kayak
#

ok👍🏿

gleaming compass
#

I don't feel like the FPS trend of games benefit from higher resolutions

#

Halo 3 for the Xbox 360 would use 3 frame buffers each at a resolution of 1152x640 and combine them into a HDR frame which was then upscaled

#

which mean someone with a 1080p TV didn't get much benefit over someone with a 720p TV

#

emulating video arcade games that used vector graphics may also benefit from 1440p
