The temps look fine when I'm playing 

Have you tried reinstalling your drivers?

Why is 1050Ti that expensive?

Otherwise, maybe it's a driver or temperature issue. Are you up to date with your drivers?

Why don't you get those universal vesa mounts that go from 200x200 to 400x400 and more, therefore covering 300x300?

So, i'm helping a friend of mine choose a laptop for photoshop and video editing in Vegas Pro.

Country: Serbia
Price range: 100.000 rsd maximum

Use case: photoshop and occasional video editing

Models that i've found and i think are decent:

I personally think that Acer is better, especially since it's so cheaper, and that 4700U is a better CPU, but i really don't know in these specific programs how the fare 

I mean, last black friday i paid $220 for my 590, and that's in my country, where prices are inflated quite a bit, and a lot of things are not available, so $300 for a 580 is a rip off.

I'm a bit out of practice with PC part picker, so this is probably good, not 100% sure.

I chose 2 sticks of 8Gb because let's be real, for anything that needs more than 16gb, 3100 will probably throttle it, so better get that stability with 2 sticks. Mobo is barebones. See if you can get a cheaper 1660S and get a better mobo

Like they said, better get 2600 over 3100, so maybe something like this?

After many, many years away from this forum, i'm back.

So, I'm probably going to get headphones for my birthday in a month and a half, or i'm going to buy them myself, and these 2 fit my budget, but barely. I've been thinking about getting H3 for a few months now, and my cousin just got them, and i tried them on, and they're pretty good, and the mic is very good. I also really like their aesthetic. They also fit really nice on my head

I haven't tried Zeus 2, and i don't know if i will be able to. They also look pretty good, and that detachable cable is a big plus. The price difference is around $15-$20 in favour of Zeus 2.

If anybody had experience with Zeus 2, please share it.

Is the LN considered "complete" yet or are there still volumes coming out?

It's ongoing. Currently it has 13 volumes out, all of which are translated.

A pretty good story I liked it

The story is nice, then you reach the ending and it's disappointing, leaves too much open, no real closure.

 

That's all I have to say about this one.

It is a LN adaptation, so the story goes on. Anime's story ends at volume 9. If you want closure, read LN (i plan on doing that in the future).

IKR? I'm like "Wait... Why am I supposed to care about this?"

All i'm seeing is people running around, usually chasing a ball. There are some interesting tidbits, but they're even less than 1 min long... 

No thanks. For 90 min. (one football match), i can read at least 30 pages (depends on the book), or watch a movie, or do something that will actually entertain me

I've heard of it? But I have literally no idea how it works, as well as giving zero cares about sports in general. I can only speak for myself though.

I really don't care about most of them... About a week ago there was a semi-final European championship (basketball). At the time i was at one coffee shop, helping my sister that's working there, and everyone was literally glued to the screen, while i had my back turned to it, playing a game on my phone (only turning around a few times to check the score)... I care that much about sports...

You have to first ask if anyone here is actually into fantasy sports (i don't even know what it is). From my experience, people that're big tech lovers don't really like sports that much.

Maybe a strawpoll or something similar, to see if anyone actually would use that site?

I personally couldn't care less about sports, but that's just me.

Definitely selective focus

Go all SSD and you can survive a 20.99999.

That's why i switched to an SSD. I didn't even know that it was faster than an ordinary HDD, i just knew that it was shock "proof", and i needed that (laptop user here)

If money wasn't an issue , i'd personally go with a custom case/chasis made out of a titanium alloy. I would also go full SSD storage, no HDD's, securing all bigger components (CPU cooler, GPU...).

This can only make it stronger, not "proof"... 

Otherwise, just kick out that HDD and put an SSD (or SSD's).

It's US and A you can't compete.

The problem isn't competing, the problem is that there's too much monopoly on our market... We only have one big potato chips manufacturer, with maybe 1 (or 2) smaller ones...

You know, i'd like to get to choose something different every now and then...

Oh the irony... Austria is far closer to Serbia than to USA, and this is the first time i heard about it (Almdudler)... Our market sucks...

I don't even drink coke Does that count

I don't know about newer models, but i had a Lenovo laptop back in 2006, and it died in 2012. It was a beast laptop, build quality wise. Sure, it was plastic, but it was extremely sturdy. Hell, in my 6 years of owning it, i only once (or maybe twice) changed the HDD, something i did 2 times in only 2 years of owning a Toshiba laptop. I threw it, opened it, played with it... It only died because i fried it's mobo by hitting it (i know, not the smartest thing to do).

If anyone is interested, the Lenovo laptop i'm talking about is Lenovo 3000 n100.

Example of not so good food

Spinach & Gruyere pie.. 

Why is it not so good? It seems like a good combo

Agreed!

Disagreed

True, everyone has their dislikes. For example i don't like tulumba...

I mean any food that you like  

When i'm hungry i just eat food Any food is good

I too am broke. It's fun to live with small income...

 

 

It is rather unfortunate, and while the quality of live is kinda high here, I have lived bellow the poverty line for all my life, and it's getting tiresome, though I know that your situation is unfortunately even worse (so I know how it feels like).

It's not that i'm that broke, it's just that my father will never give me money for games... He thinks it's stupid and that i shouldn't bother with it and i should go out and do stuff (which is pretty hilarious, because for 40 euros i can get games that will entertain me for ~100 hours while for the same amount of money i'll be able to go out 4-16 times, and let's say that each time i'm out for ~3 hours, that's at the most 48 hours...)...

I have a feeling that if i asked him for 40 euros to buy some game (40 euros is roughly 13% of his pay), singular, he'd throw something at me...

For some reason everyone is broke this week. Including me. But just charge it on your credit card and worry about it later. 

Not only this week, i'm broke every week...

Now excuse me while i go and cry myself to sleep...
