Hey y'all My 4k main monitor is experiencing a lot of video playback stuttering, when not playing videos on 4k. This is very noticeable on youtube, Twitch and sometime on Netflix. This stuttering only occurs when the video is not on 4k, or when the video is not on full screen. It's not a problem on my other 2k monitor. (I don't use that monitor for medias coz the colours are not as good.) I don't know if it's something normal with dual monitor setup, but it's really annoying when watching videos at 1080p or 1440p. I've tried changing the cables, re-installing my GPU drivers, to no avail. My entire system is ~7 years old, except for my GPU. Could it be the monitor that's bad? somekind of bottleneck in my system? Setup: Monitor 1 (4K): LG 27UD88, DP Monitor 2 (2K): AOC AG271QG, DP GPU: RTX 3070 CPU: Ryzen 7 2700 RAM: 16GB GSkill tridentZ 3200mhz Thanks in advance!

I'm not really looking for manufacturer support, more like the official OS and security have longer support. I kinda like switching between OS so thats a plus for me. I guess im weird like that haha

My OP7 finally gave in, after I broke its display... without breaking the glass somehow Now looking for a new phone and leaning towards a OP once again. Looking at either: One Plus 9 pro - has official LineageOS support. - cheaper (New: 650 $CAD, or Used: ~500 $Cad) - better build quality? (thx zack for bending the shit out of the 10 pro) or One Plus 10 pro: - slightly faster, better camera, and batteries - 1 more year of official support - New: ~900 $CAD, or Used: ~750 $Cad (price is kinda fluctuating) or Pixel 6 pro: - better and longer official support - New: ~700$, used: ~600$ Pixel 7 is a bit out of my budget tbh, I'm leaning more towards the OP9 pro, since i can just flash Lineage directly if I dont like ColourOS, and I can get it much cheaper. Question is, is the extra 100-200$ worth it for the better hardware of the OP10 or Pixel 6? Thanks in advance y'all

StoreMi 1 problem with that is I dont think I have enough storage to back these up i could buy another drive since its boxing day doh

Hi all I'm reinstalling my PC but I have a tiered drive that I wanna keep. It's not my boot drive so I wont be fromatting it but since I have to uninstall the StoreMi program, I'm not sure how to proceed with that. I think I need to separate the tiered drive, then do a full uninstall of StoreMI, then go on with my pc reinstalling. Just asking to be sure! also wanted to know if the upgrade to FuzeDrive is free for Ryzen users, since AMD discontinued storeMi thanks!

PC randomly restarted, and my tiered drive disapeared.Checked my StoreMI and got these 2 error. Never happened before and I cant find what TDISK error mean I have a 120gb sandisk ssd hooked to a 2T WD blue. It seems both disk are online and working properly according to disk manager. havent checked them individually doh.

(no idea why I had a different account on my phone but... im the OP) This is my second re-paste, and the temp still wouldnt come down. (sorry no picture of the first repaste doh) I def. put too much this time, but even so it did not change anything. I will try again tmrw with the stock ryzen cooler to see if its a problem with my AIO or something else. Another thing I didnt mention is that I cleaned my AIO's grill with water spray, but there shouldnt be any leak since... theres still water inside (from the noise) and i didnt see any leakage.

for reference, i followed this video for the teardown/repaste.

I did a repaste of my Acer Nitro 5. My idle temperature only dropped from 2-3C, and while gaming 4-5C. I'm using a thermal paste i bought like 8 years ago for my first build. It's not some brand stuff but both my old and new (2 years ago) PC never ran into any thermal issues with this paste. I know that the Nitro 5 isnt the best in terms of stock thermal performance, but i thought it woulda been better after repasting. Maybe I did it incorectly? Or should I get a new tube of thermal paste?

Hmmm main reason I'm getting a gaming laptop is for my exchange semester which i'll be away from my tower (sniff sniff). the most id play would be some Tales games, Dota and overwatch? I don't think they require that much GPU power (unless im wrong) The MSI is also lighter and i've heard it has better thermal too.

Buying an used laptop. Gonna be gaming and doing some 3d modeling and renderings on it (Rhino, Vray, etc) MSI GV62 8RE i5-8300h (quad core) GTX 1060 3gb 8gb Ram Acer Nitro 5 AN515 i7-8750h (six core) GTX 1050 4 gb 16gb ram both has SSD so thats not an issue. I know there are many other factors when buying a new laptop but just spec wise what do you guys think? I'm leaning towards the Acer because of the extra ram and extra 2 core What are your opinions?

Stock android or almost stock android. This is the only feature that was annoying me on my P9 Plus. Even with Nova launcher, a lot of settings/options were not modifiable comparing to Oxygen OS. - I dont mind about the hardware much, as long as it can run View ER and A360 smoothly (which my P9 Plus struggled a bit). - I'd rather not ditch the headphone jack either, but I can do without it. - Storage: 64gb at least. Expandable storage is minor for me. - Decent camera.

I use A360 and view ER quite a lot and its quite laggy on my Huawei P9+ (the phone is 3.5 YO doh). I've only looked at newer models so far, but older phones are definitively within my options. Thanks for hte suggestions! I still remember the days I used to flex my OnePlus 1 on all my friend... if only it lasted longer T.T but ya, I didnt look at older models yet, as I said previously. This seems like a nice option too! thanks!

oh no my phone is dying :< Been looking around and the Zenfone 6 seems like my preferred choice for now. It is unfortunately not out yet in Canada. any suggestions is appreciated! -OS: Stock android or "almost" stock android. Been using the Huawei OS for 3.5 year and I still dont like it -Budget: under 800 CAD -Hardware: 6GB of ram, headphone jack pref. I dont really care that much about the camera, as long as it's not too outdated. Other phones that I've been looking: LG V40: a bit hard to get in Canada, unsure about the OS, but i heard it's closer to stock Nokia 9 Pureview: to much camera (lol). no headphone jack (i can deal with that), and also a bit hard to get in Canada. Motorola One Vision: battery/power consumption seems underwhelming from reviews. But really, I'm open to any suggestions! Thanks in advance!
