So, I was messing around with Excel and figuring out how many megapixels resolutions would make. By messing around with the 21:9 ratio, I found that you get a gigapixel (More specifically 1,268,121,600) of pixels by having a resolution of 55040 x 23040, which just happens to be 16 times the resolution of 3440 x 1440. Then I remembered the 16K gaming setup. So, here's my suggestion to LTT. Do a 55K gaming setup. 16 1440 UW monitors in a 16 x 16 grid. Give us a gigapixel! Show us the power it takes to run such fidelity! Edit: So, I messed up, I don't know how. 4x4 3440 does make 55K gaming, 16 x 16 3440 makes 55K. A little harder to do than 4x4... Still, would love to see this tried to be pulled off. If you use the Samsung Odessey Neo, it would only take 8 x 8 panels to reach a gigapixel.

Questions about fresh installing
GoldForest replied to GoldForest's topic in New Builds and Planning
Oh, right, sorry. I am replacing the CPU, Motherboard and RAM. As for Desktop, I wasn't going to mess with icons, just folders I have on my desktop. -
I'm going to be upgrading my computer soon, and I had a question. I know I have to clean install so there's no driver conflicts, but I was wondering if it would be okay to copy all my data (Desktop, Documents, pictures, videos, music) to one of my extra harddrives, clean install, then move all that stuff back on to the OS drive after the clean install? Also, my Windows is digitally tied to my account, I don't have to get a new key right? Just sign in after the fresh install and it should be good, right?

I can't right now, at work. It didn't seem like much liquid was underneath the space bar. I'll check it when I get home and clean it if I have to.

I accidentally spilt soda on my ASUS ROG Strix G17 (2020, i7-10750h, rtx 2070). I turned if off immediately while cleaning up the soda. I know to leave it off for 24 hours, but I'm worried about it. There are no ASUS service centers around me. I pried off the space bar and noticed that there's a clear film and there's little to no space for the soda to seep through. Is the G17 liquid resistant? Will I just have to worry about sticky keys or should I take it in for a cleaning? It was about 5 to 15 seconds between the soda spill and the clean up. Most of the soda was under the spacebar/on the track pad I think btw.

I've already said I don't need a console. I already have one. -

GoldForest replied to GoldForest's topic in Home Theater Equipment
By dedicated I mean an actual player, not a console. Consoles are not dedicated players, they're multi-purpose. Video games, Internet, Etc. I'd rather have something that more or less is just for movies, such as a Blu-ray Player. That and I don't want to teach my parents how to use a controller or an Xbox. I know I could buy a TV style remote, but I'd rather not. I already have an X.B.O.X. as well, but it's downstairs with me in the basement and I'd rather not have to move it every time someone wants to watch a bluray. I'm actually now rethinking buying a Bluray player and instead just getting an HTPC to store movies from online. Most movies are released digitally now. -
... and the consensus seems to be that the Sony UBP-X700 is the one to go for. Do you guys concur or should I look at other options? And please no suggestions about getting a console. I would like a dedicated player.
