that's normal for pleather

though im currently using the stock earpads of the hd6xx which is velour (which means it's not going to fall apart) though after a while it probably will get disgusting and need to be changed

A5 half as much
A6 half as much again
A3 is 2 feet
A2 4 foot

And the same in reverse
Base 10 makes mathematics way easier so it's often preferred

Well yeah
That's why everyone in America has to have a calculator on them
Whenever I used a tape measure at my job I wouldn't actually do the math. I'd be like ok it's 12 and 2 tics, and then 43 and 7 tics. Id measure the first bit, make a mark, then measure from there cause I was to lazy to do the math or pull my calc 😂 it worked tho

Xfinity was always good to me. Their service rarely had an outage where I was and even during the big freeze or the last few major storms, they didn't go out except for maybe like an hour every few years. I was getting 1200mbps and the big TV package for 120 a month, and every time I was even minorly inconvenienced by anything they would comp my bill, plus give me like free hbo or cinemax or whatever I didn't have for like 3-6 months each time.

yeah that's not uncommon but the issue isn't neccesarily that tmobile home internet is bad, it's line of sight and location of the nearest tower.
So it differs for everyone
we have completely clear land and direct line of sight to 2 different towers. One is the verizon tower and I suspect the closer one is tmobile. It's not ATT cause I don't get their 5G network out here and that tower is def close enough for it.

Yall think yall can help me my pc working but it’s showing no display on my monitor
I’ve seen hella YouTube videos
none of them worked
I'm going to give you the IT treatment. We eliminate the obvious and move back to the less obvious
Is your plugs plugged in ALLL the way?
Is your monitor on?
Yes
I can send you a picture if you want
mental yoke
Is your plugs plugged in ALLL the way?
Idek if I do but I read the manual and I’m pretty sure everything is where it’s supposed to be
New monitor?
New everything
What kind of connection?
HDMI
I have an adapter as well and it ain’t working
most monitors come with a displayport
can you use that?
yea display port
Can it only be one connected at a time
I got 1 hdmi and 1 display port connected at the same time
I wouldn't connect two connections to a A PC
I would choose one or the other
That might be the issue.
I prefer displayport because of it's capabilities
Nah
Don’t work
Do you have the appropriate display selected on the monitor?
if you are going to use HDMI is the HDMI option selected?
Yes
lemme try hdmi
Do you have another monitor you can try with the PC?
which I assume it's a PC right?
Yea it’s a pc
I don’t have another monitor
The same problem happened with my last pc it was running well and all of a sudden no display one day
my dad then broke the monitor
Do you have a game systeM you can test the monitor on?
wym
Like Xbox
YEs
or ps5
yes
or switch
no
But
I do have a tv
Do I connect the pc to that
YOu can try to connect the PC to the TV via HDMI
aii I will
that way we can isolate it's not the PC.
Remote IT is hard...I will admit. But it's also fun because it allows you to use your deep critical skills. to determine what the issue is.

Custom

750w PSU is good enough for 13600K, 2080ti, 2x16gb DDR5, 3 NVMes, & like... 10 rgb fans no? I feel like the fact that I'm questioning it means I should probably swap in an 850w... heckkk
It's this one. My first PSU 🥹 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01N4C39AR/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1
now that I think about it, that PSU has been running fine for years with a 10900K (OC to 51x all-core), a 1080ti (OC to uh, whatever worked I don't remember), 2x16gb DJR at 4533c19, a 360mm LF2, &... 7 aRGB fans. I think it'll be fine

I could put an 850w GF2, 850w Rev whatever it's called (the enermax one), or even a 1300w EVGA uh whatever it is I forget but I'd rather avoid swapping the PSU if I can
especially the 1300w EVGA PSU cuz that's in my 12900K/3080ti build that hasn't done much in the last 2-3 months

i need to build a test bench of some sort
idle nexus
mine is just a piece of styrofoam R-board I cut off from a giant R-board sheet & removed the plastic
I cut out part of the back so the CPU backplate wouldn't be the lowest point
nothing fancy by any stretch of the imagination lol
there are much better foams to use iirc
syrofoam has the awful tendency to have those little balls get everywhere
& I don't think it's ideal in terms of static either
if you do a test bench, I highly recommend two things: (1) ZMT or some other EPDM tubing & (2) QDC fittings
(assuming you're planning on using water)
rancid juniper
test benching sounds nice especially for benchmark
idle nexus
I found some relatively inexpensive plastic Alphacool QDCs & got like 8 or 10 of them I forget
they were on sale for like ~$9/each at the time https://shop.alphacool.com/en/shop/fittings/quick-release-fasteners/17396-alphacool-hf-quick-release-connector-kit-g1/4-black
some QDCs are like $15+ PER SIDE
like you buy male & female connections separately lol
sweet phoenix
it prob wont be before next year
maybe end of this year, although theres some other purchases that come first
idle nexus
the ones I got aren't the greatest for sure. I always have a towel under them when I disconnect them because there's always a little bit of water
compared to removing an actual fitting they're a godsend tho
& they don't leak more aftwards
I've taken them apart at least 50x
idle nexus
maybe end of this year, although theres some other purchases that come first

They keep releasing limited edition models at inflated prices instead of just keeping the stock up for the regular one.
And they have a serious scalping issue anyway which is just made worse due to the limited edition models lol.

ally or smth probably is better
ancient swift
To me; I like the Legion Go's 1600p over having a 1080p screen because 800p can be integer scaled up to 1600p and it works better than how scaling works on the ROG Ally.
velvet summit
windows has better game support
also the ally and some other steam deck competitors have more powerful socs
craggy shoal
Can't you also increase the storage on the Steam Deck though? Just get the OLED for $549 and upgrade the storage, right?
ancient swift
You can increase all of their storages
and asides from the ROG Ally, they can also run games off a MicroSD card fairly well
craggy shoal
Yeah that too
Like I might as well just get the cheapest OLED version and get a couple 2TB SD cards lol

to be honest ive never actually used an oled for that long so can't say anything about oled
maybe five minutes

The screen difference is crazy.

razer edge? that doesnt sound good
It's an android tablet that came with Razer Kishi. Rebadged SD 888.
misty sparrow

ancient swift
144hz screen. But the 20:9 aspect ratio defeats it's use as a streaming or emulation handheld in the long run. That and the rounded corners lol
Ye, but I wouldn't get it until it drops down to 249$ again
misty sparrow
it did
ancient swift
Oh it is 249 right now
misty sparrow
i cant believe $400 is the stock price though
ancient swift
Yeah if you play android games it's great(ish).
But for most of these android handhelds, you stream or emulate. Both of which the aspect ratio kinda messes up. Cause why play games on that when your phone is probably better?
misty sparrow
yeah i dont really get these things
you can instead buy those controller attachments and plug them into your phone
same thing cheaper price
misty sparrow
