You sure this site is trustworthy?

these laptops are displaying that they have sold over 5 or 10 units

[heavy ferry]

I mean I bought every piece of hardware there for my desktop. I trust them.

[lone depot]

Ah

[heavy ferry]

You also can look here if you want to.

https://www.saturn.de/

https://www.mediamarkt.de/

[lone depot]

Alright

Hmm the saturn website seems to be broken for me

[heavy ferry]

Alright

[lone depot]

It seems neither websites will cooperate for some reason

[velvet steeple]

They work for me

[lucid heron]

So how does getting a GPU at MSRP work?

Is it literally impossible because of scalpers?

[velvet steeple]

Other than Best Buy drops, it is not possible

[lone depot]

Basically

[lucid heron]

Why don't companies do something about that....

[lone depot]

they cant

[velvet steeple]

They can't

[lone depot]

Its not their problem either

[lucid heron]

Im sure they can find a way

[velvet steeple]

No they can't

[lone depot]

They already got the money off selling it

[velvet steeple]

If they could have fixed it, they would have

[lone depot]

Its up to the buyers to protect against scalpers

The only way to stop them is to stop buying overpriced gpus

Also sorry @heavy ferry i cant get the german websites to load for some reason so i cant really look at laptops for you

[heavy ferry]

@lone depot Okay, then I can think of two possibilities. Maybe you look directly on the manufacturer's website and hope that they deliver to Germany, or you look through your familiar websites and then search here in some form for the laptop you're looking for. Would you be in?

[lone depot]

Hmm.. That could work

I'll try that

[heavy ferry]

Thank you 🙂

[lone depot]

Is this normal?

[velvet steeple]

Yes

[lone depot]

Hmm the belgium website seems to work fine

but the germany one doesnt

[hollow prawn]

By the way, mindfactory is pretty trustworthy

[lone depot]

I was just confused when it said sold 10 laptops

cause 10 isnt a lot

[heavy ferry]

for some items it's totaly normal.

[lone depot]

I see

Can you search "msi GF65" on saturn or mediamarkt?

See if that comes up

[heavy ferry]

wait

does that laptop only exists in the "thin" variant?

[lone depot]

The one i'm looking at isn't the thin variant

Maybe this isnt available where you are then

https://www.mindfactory.de/product_info.php/Notebook-17-3Zoll--43-94cm--MSI-GL75-Leopard-10SCSR-057-i5-10200H-16GB-_1416780.html

[heavy ferry]

If I look it up on all three sites including amazon there is only the "thin" variant which costs 1200€

[lone depot]

This is petty close

only 1 left though 😆

That seems pretty close to what you need though

I assume you're going to be gaming on it?

[heavy ferry]

yeah, primarily single player games for now.

[lone depot]

I think that's probably the best you can get

the MSI one i sent

Amazon has terrible prices and the others wouldnt show up in mindfactory

[heavy ferry]

Okay, the one that you send seems decent. While you were looking I found this one.

https://www.otto.de/p/acer-an517-41-r77u-notebook-43-94-cm-17-3-zoll-amd-ryzen-5-geforce-rtx-3060-512-gb-ssd-1288764074#variationId=1288764077

can you see it?

[lone depot]

Yes

I think this acer one is better

Better CPU

Better GPU too

Think bigger screen also

[heavy ferry]

the screen is the same but yes I agree with what you said.

So that's going to be it I think. It can't get any better in my opinion.

for the said budget

[lone depot]

Yes

I agree

Well if that's what your final decision is, go for it

[heavy ferry]

Yeah I think so. Thank you very much for your help. You have saved me a lot of time and stress. Have a nice day. 🙂

[lone depot]

No problem! Enjoy your laptop

[heavy ferry]

Yes, I'll definitely do that.

[glass mason]

just note that acer is subpar when it comes to quality

[heavy ferry]

okay, what does "subpar" stand for ?

[glass mason]

below average

[heavy ferry]

alright, in regards to what?

[glass mason]

compared to other companies. acer is meh

but the specs are good on the one you chose and as long as the price is right for it, its okay

[lone depot]

^

Definitely not premium quality but the specs are way better

Nothing to worry about unless you drop your computer or something

then you've got problems

[heavy ferry]

@glass mason Thx for the note.

[glass mason]

[heavy ferry]

@lone depot Yeah the specs look good to me.
And I didn't plan to throw it through my entire room. I get what you mean. Wouldn't be the first time in my family that something like this happened.

[lone depot]

haha, yeah dont be playing any football with it 😆

[heavy ferry]

or rugby, just imagine body slamming into it right after the mailman handed it to you. 😄

[lone depot]

The mailman would be in shock

His hard work to deliver it to your doorstep all for the package to be destroyed

[heavy ferry]

Yes, of course you have to pay attention to them. But to make it even more appreciative, it's best to pick up the package again and put it in his hand and say "Bring me a new one, this one is broken". If he still does it, you'll have a postman for life, and don't let anyone else come.

[digital wigeon]

For $500 more, you get the RTX3070 with that Lenovo from this ABS

[acoustic lagoon]

Yea but if someone's looking for something not too powerful or something to just play some light games

Then it's good

Or for productivity

Bc 12GB

[true furnace]

eh it could handle serious gaming too

but 1080p

1440p too but settings has to be lowered

[acoustic lagoon]

My point is lol that if someone's not looking for a power horse for gaming but want the VRAM for work then that's available

Somebody from another discord bought one for...probably way more several months ago

[limber mantle]

i messaged the seller after i bought it and top him other people are scalping that card for way more than 800$ and he told me he didnt care, he doesnt like scalping and needed the money to give to his mom for her birthday lol

[austere thunder]

Nice

+rep xd

[limber mantle]

i respected that and gave him a little more lol

[digital wigeon]

That’s cool of you to do that. And the seller as well. I look forward to seeing it in action for you. I recently gave my old PC with a gtx 1070 to someone at church and his son is loving it. Still a great card today even if there’s more powerful cards out

My daughter has an M17 alienware laptop. Dell lost her ssd drive when it was serviced. Replacement will not arrive until november. What can I buy as a replacement? Dell M.2 SATA Class 20 2280 Solid State Drive - 512GB

[austere thunder]

Oof

Do you know if the slot is capable of NVMe?

It sounds like it isn't

[vernal vector]

I do not know.

[austere thunder]

Someone here should be able to help with that

[hollow prawn]

Okay, apparently there's 2 different m.2 2280 slots

[vernal vector]

I have a terabyte 5400 disk in teh machine now

[hollow prawn]

Well, there's a config for 2 different m.2 2280 slot, and one for a m.2 2280 alongside a m.2 2230 slot

[vernal vector]

want to make that a secondary drive with teh primary as ssd

[hollow prawn]

Dell is weird

But it looks like you can use NVMe drives

[hollow prawn]

what's your budget?

Is it possible to get one of the Google wifi mesh thing and use it with my existing router?

[hollow prawn]

Since you don't really need the speeds, might be able to find cheaper wifi extenders

Sure it'll be slower but Facebook wouldn't care

[mighty jolt]

As long as it can load her videos lol

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07N1WW638/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glt_fabc_dl_WRFXVKXJ8VYCQ1HDYMQ5

Seems like it works so gotta wait and see when I get it

[hybrid garnet]

Keep in mind those wireless range extenders have an effective speed of half their rating. Half is used to Communicate with the router, half with devices.

Does anyone have any knowledge of the NFL-EC60-TB Zero Gravity Massage Chair. I'm trying to locate a replacement remote control for the chair. If anyone has any knowledge please respond, it would be greatly appreciated.

[digital wigeon]

I've been trying when I'm free but during work, I get so busy that what time I have left, I just get onto general and hang out with everyone

[lone depot]

Same here

[lone depot]

I’d look on the manufacturer website for replacement parts or customer support, or look on ebay for them

I’m assuming it’s just an infrared one

Or some set channel that doesn’t differ between units

[digital wigeon]

Yup. Manufacturers and eBay are great places to find replacement parts

[left pagoda]

There's the problem, there is no manufacturer name, only model number.

[digital wigeon]

Go back to where you bought it from then

[lone depot]

NFL like football?

Is it a football franchise themed massage chair

[digital wigeon]

Without a manufacturer's name, its hard to get something replaced

Customer support led me to this forum.

[grave wren]

Should I be concerned about the reviews on bestbuy?

[hollow prawn]

what part of them

[grave wren]

Like the negative ones

[hollow prawn]

what part of them

[grave wren]

Quality control problems

[hollow prawn]

like dead pixels and those kinds of manufacturing defects come with any monitor, any monitor that is popular enough likely will have a small percentage of panels have dead pixels, and need to get RMAed

[grave wren]

Okay, well hopefully if there are any with the one I get it’s within the return period

I appreciate all the help, I’m gonna order it

[hollow prawn]

as to build quality, RTings has a little snippet for that in their review

[lone depot]

Yeah risk of dead pixels come with any monitor

[hollow prawn]

The Gigabyte M27Q's build quality is good. It's entirely made out of plastic, but it feels sturdy, and there are no obvious issues with the construction. There's very little flex on the back, and the stand supports the monitor well.

I have this computer Adamant Custom Liquid Cooled Desktop Computer Workstation Intel Core i9 9900K 3.6Ghz 32Gb DDR4 4TB HDD 500Gb SSD 550W PSU Wi-Fi Onboard Integrated Video Card ( item number 9SIAK3P9498493) i bought it few months ago..now i would like to upgrade it with a graphics card...can you suggest a good graphics card compatible with my pc?

[rugged thistle]

Any graphic card might do. But you need to know how much room you have inside the case

[spice oar]

the tower isn't that big or spacius...

[rugged thistle]

But the PSU is small. However with that said you want a 3060 or 6600

You might want to post your tower size.

Or a link to the pc you purchased n

[hollow prawn]

Looks like a Thermaltake S300 TG, which would mean 280mm for the GPU length

[spice oar]

https://www.newegg.com/p/1VK-01UA-00001

[hollow prawn]

which would mean practically any dual fan card should fit

[spice oar]

posted the link

[rugged thistle]

I agree with @hollow prawn as usual

Between the case and PSU. You want a 3060 or 6600xt.

@spice oar if you have a microcenter you might find a card that will fit it

[hollow prawn]

Well, it's a tt smart bronze, isn't the greatest PSU, could upgrade that and grab a higher power draw GPU

[spice oar]

thanks guys for the suggestion

[grave wren]

@hollow prawn Out of curiosity, whats your opinion on this: https://www.amazon.com/Gigabyte-Monitor-Display-Response-FreeSync/dp/B0926ZVM75/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=gigabyte%2Bm27q&qid=1629167251&s=pc&sr=1-1&th=1

Im about to place the order on the one we discussed

[hollow prawn]

bit worse pixel density, it's also just a worse panel than M27q, va panel is prob gonna be worse color accuracy and such

[grave wren]

Alright, then ill stick with the m27q then

I was just interested in the curved monitors but it seems this is the way to go

[hollow prawn]

well, ips panel will have to be flat, there's that

oh yea

rtings has both monitors

one sec

@grave wren
https://www.rtings.com/monitor/tools/compare/gigabyte-g32qc-vs-gigabyte-m27q/14613/19668?usage=3623&threshold=0.10

M27q is better color, view angles, a bit worse contrast, better gradiant, better pixel response time, better pixel density (109ppi instead of 93ppi)

m27q also has the kvm thing but prob won't really matter for you

[grave wren]

Hmm, well i appreciate the side by side analysis

do you think theres any good curved monitors out there that can compete with the m27q for that price range?

Or is having a curved monitor overrated

Im just worried I wont like the flat monitor

[hollow prawn]

I say probably overrated until you get to like 40in ultrawide, but you can take your look around, M27q is just a beast in terms of what you'll get for the price

[grave wren]

Okay, well thanks again mate, I'm gonna buy it now

Do you think I should get it from Amazon or Bestbuy

[hollow prawn]

whatever is cheaper, and whatever is easier (if you can get prime 2 day shipping instead of like 2 weeks, of course that's nicer, or if you can do in-store pick-up in like a few hours, that's better than having to wait 2 days for shipping, yaknow.)

hey i'm browsing for gaming laptops and i found this one that seems a bit too good to be true

anyone able to double check it for any blatant downsides i didn't catch?

it's an MSI - GF65 with a 3060 on bestbuy

going for 1.1k

[nova geyser]

That seems about normal pricing for a 3060 laptop ye

[elfin mauve]

really? because everything im seeing at that price point is a 2060 or a 1660 ti

i was wondering if maybe the screen is bad or the thermals or sketchy, since i can't find much info on those

i would link it but best buy links aren't allowed here for some reason

[nova geyser]

Laptops and thermals don't exactly go hand in hand, but if you can dm me the link I'll check it out

[nova geyser]

You just need to be lvl 3

[elfin mauve]

ah ic

GF65 has ok thermals

It has no issue cooling itself down, provided you enable fan turbo mode

Well even stock fan mode is fine tbh

Hello, I'm not very tech savvy but I was wondering if y'all know a good laptop I could get for college?

What’s your budget

[old dagger]

I don't really have a budget but as long it doesn't exceed 700 too much.

Hmmm

Maybe find a used Nitro 5

Or go the ideapad route

Ah gotcha I'll look into those. Thanks!

nitro 5 isnt recommended as the build quality is pretty garbage

I hate sd cards they’re so finicky

Sometimes they work and sometimes they don’t
