  1. Since Windows 11 was released I noticed that if forced installed on machines with older CPUs games tend to freeze / crash (and corrupt the user directory for some reason). I don't know about AMD, but at least on 7th gen Intel processors, this doesn't occur. Does anyone know the technical reason for that?
  2. I ended up following your advice and submit a return request. The lower price was killing me but the hassle seems not worth it.
  3. Hey everyone. I bought a 3TB 7200 rpm Seagate hard drive on Amazon for a great price. It was listed as a SATA drive but it is in fact SAS when it arrived, but I know very little of it. If I buy a RAID controller in IT mode and plug in a PCIe on my desktop motherboard will it work? Do I need to do any configuration? Or do I need something else? Thank you for any help.
  4. https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/benq-mobiuz-ex2510s No shop link, I'd be buying it from my employer. They can't return it anymore but it's sealed and within warranty (almost full extent). Retail price is €249,00
  5. I wasn't really looking for upgrade my monitor soon, although to be honest, I've kinda wished to have some minimum decent HDR. But I've been needing to get some speakers, since my 5.1 Logitech speaker went FUBAR roughly a year ago and refunded. I'm rocking right now an AOC C24G1 24 and the opportunity to buy the Mobiuz arrise. The monitor would be brand new, sealed and with warranty. Since the monitor has alledgedly greast sound incorporated, I though might as well. What do you guys think?
  6. Not twice as much, as end up being for many people. Linus talked about this Wan show how a warehouse in europe would increase prices too, but the cut down in shipping and double taxation (that is undue, as he said, but still happens), but in the end, the end price would still make up for it, else, other companies wouldn't do it. The thing is, like he said, Canadian store already liquidates the inventory they have and he discussed it before how he has been having cash flow problems to order more inventory, so the insentive to increase sales isn't there.
  7. Yeah, plus all the taxes involved, doubling the price on some cases. The price for the backpack itself it's not the issue because high end backpacks can cost around the same and Creative Warehouse is still a small company to be able to order enough factory allocation to have greater bulk discounts, I'd say. I'm not upset with anything though, but it ends being far too expensive to make sense for me. Same for other stuff from LTT Store. I'd love to get a a mouse pad, but after taxes and imports the cost just doesn't make sense to me. PS:
  8. I asked Linus once on the Wan pre-show. He put on (sequestered for a few minutes xD) Yvonne and they talked about on how they didn't want to get involved in that kind of work and specially meddle with other tax systems. Which is a shame, really. I'd buy lot's of stuff from them, if it didn't get crazily expensive. Some stuff doubles the cost.
  9. Sorry for the late reply, haven't been here in a while. PS2: I actually have a SATA adapter to mount on my phat PS2. Not exactly a mod, PSP: Not yet, but there are some IPS screen kids I want to try out. I have a white PSP console with a faulty screen that's the perfect candidate.
  10. Since it was hinted on the last Wan show a possible future interest of LTT / Labs, I was wondering if more people here are into this. Please share your projects if you have them. Here is my own retro console modding pr0n so far: IPS screens and shell replacements on handhelds: Game Gear: Gameboy Color: Gameboy Advance: Home consoles: Nintendo 64: Home consoles (non aesthetic): Sega Mega Drive model 1: PAÇ version with switchless region / frequency mod; Sega Saturn: Japanse model 2 with CD drive replaced with an ODE (Fenrir); Sega Dreamcast: GD-rom drive replaced with and ODE (GDEmu); XBox (original): HDD replaced with a SATA drive, output with a custom XOSVP component cable;
  11. I see, thank you. TV's are one of those things where product identification is a headache. I ended up finding an LG C1 on sale.
  12. I got handed down LG Gram from 2018(?). And I notice these two light rectangles around the middle of the screen: Are these normal or some kind of burn in of sorts? They are more noticeable the lighter the color on the display. Thank you.
  13. Hi everyone, I've been looking at U8G and it eems to me I can get a U8QF for a more reduced price. The spec sheet seem pretty simillar, what are the differences? Is U8G worth paying a bit more? Thank you.
  14. Yeah, mine is technically 120hz if I enable interpolation. What would you say it's the first ones worthy? Anything I should pray for a Black Friday deal?
  15. Preferably 4k and HDR. Anything below or around €500? Or I'd have to aim higher? Thank you.
