AIO tubes and GPU front panel

[round moat]

you got scammed... the 3pin version can see all the hotspots
return it and change to 3+4pin version

make sure it comes with this box, not white box

[dense jacinth]

I'm okay with it. Eventually Ill end up taking it off.

What do you mean by hotspots?

[round moat]

see my tubes no hotspots

[dense jacinth]

what is a hotspot. I'm sure you definition of hotspot is different from what I am thinking of\

[round moat]

your tubes can see each pixels

[dense jacinth]

scammed. It never said anything about not having hotspot

[round moat]

you got scammed, you just didn't realized it

[dense jacinth]

so with my corsair ambient triangles then so did corsair scam me if their lights have pixels?

how much are your lights?

[round moat]

I'm talking about the tube sleeves

[dense jacinth]

i am aware of that and I am comparing it with a higher quality item.

[round moat]

we pay the same prices but you got the fake one, and I got the real one

[dense jacinth]

so what is the point of all thsi?

real or fake lights are lights right?

[round moat]

it's ok if you like it like this

it definitely not ok with me, I will return it back to seller

[dense jacinth]

how much are your tubes lights? mine were only $2usd

[round moat]

that's fair I guess

[dense jacinth]

the gpu side panel is the one that cost me $8usd

the price I said on the title it the total cost for both. LOL

[round moat]

my tube is like 20-25usd

[dense jacinth]

I could not find those here in the us

[round moat]

I bought from here

[dense jacinth]

even the ones that I saw on amazon for $30usd that I previously purchase are worse than these $2 ones. LOL

[round moat]

my review is still there

[dense jacinth]

Nice!!

[round moat]

if the one you get is just 2usd, then it's ok

[dense jacinth]

yes. They are actually not that bad.

[round moat]

still can see hotspots

my one is smooth

all blend in very well

[dense jacinth]

the ones I ordered oon amazon are worse and cost $30usd, so I returned them. lol

[dense jacinth]

maybe I'll get those later.

These are too short.

[round moat]

there are 39cm and 35cm

[dense jacinth]

my $2usd ones are too short. wish they were longer

[round moat]

120 240 choose 35cm
360 420 choose 39cm

[dense jacinth]

I need the 39cm ones

[dense jacinth]

Where did you get your 8.8 inch display?

[dapper hawk]

i know my word is not worth much but i think it looks awesome!!!!

[dense jacinth]

Thanks. goes well also with your strimer attack effect.

[dapper hawk]

👍

[dapper hawk]

no matter what effect you have on. i say looks sweet to me. but good to hear it gets some use.

[round moat]

A friend gave me on my birthday
I think he bought from AliExpress

I think it's this one

[dense jacinth]

doews it use aida64?

[round moat]

yes

but I use mine https://github.com/qiangqiang101/BigBro-Monitor

[dense jacinth]

damn. okay. Thank you. was trying to avoid using aida64. haha

[round moat]

it was either using aida64 or chinese spyware

[dense jacinth]

I have a 3.5 inch that a friend gave me and it only uses a usb c connection no aida64. he told me about the 8.8 inch one as well that uses a usb c with no aida too.

[round moat]

I was trying to reverse engineer my little 3.5" ips monitor back then, they obfuscated their code make it harder to reverse engineer

[dense jacinth]

wow. that complicated huh

[round moat]

fear not, now there are open source one https://github.com/mathoudebine/turing-smart-screen-python

[dense jacinth]

so how does the open source work?

[round moat]

same

[dense jacinth]

Oh okay.

This is the one i have. Some company called wownova, and it uses Turing or turnzx something like that.

[round moat]

Cool! Here’s mine

[dense jacinth]

I was planning on doing that as well but I already got too many wires on my desk. haha

this is the one I was looking at that utilizes only a USB C to USB header on the motherboard

[round moat]

don't buy USB one

not smooth

it will always feel choppy

usb can't faster than hdmi

[dense jacinth]

I understand that. But it uses up more CPU usage. Thats what I am trying to avoid

[round moat]

HDMI does not use any CPU usage

[dense jacinth]

can you show me because Ive seen it. HDMI with usb C vs usb C. the usb c only uses less the between 0.3% to 1.3% depending on what dynamic them is used, HDMI with usb C uses up to 3%

[round moat]

0.3-0.4%

compare to signal

[dense jacinth]

this is the 8.8 display?

[round moat]

yeah

[dense jacinth]

Thats pretty good. the one my buddy had used alot of CPU. haha

[round moat]

IDK maybe aida64 thing or he has very old CPU

[dense jacinth]

I thhink its was because the dynamic them he was using was heavy resolution then.

[dense jacinth]

CPU is a 14900K

[round moat]

[dense jacinth]

He doesnt know how to use aida64. I built his PC in August 24

He returned it to amazon because of the high cpu usage

[round moat]

he must having the USB version then

[dense jacinth]

my buddy is not very computer savvy That's why he asked me to build his PC. I debloated it and everything before he purchased the display. All he did was plug it in, and set up the 8.8 display

[dense jacinth]

nope usb with hdmi

[round moat]

what software?

[dense jacinth]

This one exactly

https://a.co/d/fKZ3iI1

[round moat]

not one of these?

[dense jacinth]

This is the one I have but 3.5 inch display

I sent you the link for the exact one he ordered

[round moat]

so it was aida64 issue then

original or crack?

maybe he use cracked aida64 causing high cpu usage?

[dense jacinth]

it was from amazon

he doesn't know how to use aida64> hahahaha

[round moat]

no aida64 doesn't include with the monitor

you must buy separately

[dense jacinth]

I know that.

[round moat]

that looks like a normal hdmi monitor to me

why does it even use CPU usage

does he plug the monitor on motherboard and not GPU?

[dense jacinth]

Like I said. It might have been the dynamic theme he was using

[dense jacinth]

its hdmi. wher else can it be plugged at. LOL

[round moat]

ahh prob the theme

[dense jacinth]

I believe so.

[round moat]

motherboard with igpu or gpu

[dense jacinth]

GPU

[round moat]

my current theme is running 1fps

[dense jacinth]

I might order the one you linked to me. I just want too many wires thats why. 😅

[round moat]

the con side is having 2 cables running to your system vs 1 cable for USB one

the USB on the monitor only provides power

[dense jacinth]

yes

[dense jacinth]

is yours modded? or you using original software

[round moat]

I write my own software

[dense jacinth]

Thats porbably why you have great cpu usage. lol

[round moat]

https://github.com/qiangqiang101/BigBro-Monitor

[dense jacinth]

out of the box some of those displays have high cpu useage.

[dense jacinth]

you sent this twice already and i see it in the plugin thread

[round moat]

yeah, I only released this recently

was a private project before

was in development for 4 years

[dense jacinth]

Oh wow. Thats a great deal of effort

[round moat]

[dense jacinth]

so your does use aida64?

[dense jacinth]

oh whoops. I didn't see that. lol

[dense jacinth]

Thank you for you time brotha

[waxen fulcrum]

Sorry for pinging, but thanks for the link. Was looking for this for a while these seem nice I ordered them

[waxen fulcrum]

Just got the "strimers" from AliExpress which are really bright. Can't wait to receive the tubes haha

[dense jacinth]

them strimers are nice. But not my cup of tea. I like to look at them on other build but not mine. lol So glad Asus came out with a rear connect GPU. best thing ever.

[waxen fulcrum]

bro i ordered from that link and got a white non branded box lol

[round moat]

what you chose 3pin?

[waxen fulcrum]

yh

[round moat]

your mistake then

[waxen fulcrum]

Haha alright no worries tho was still cheap

[round moat]

choose 4pin

[waxen fulcrum]

I'm returning it anyways doesnt fit around my AIO cable lol

[round moat]

Too short?

[waxen fulcrum]

No, my AIO cable is to wide

It only slips on half, and it has a weird line in it

I mean see this haha

So it will be, show the dark line, or show an open not fitting line.
Doesnt look right
