  1. i though about that but some apps wont be supporte like my banking app. The phone unfortunally needs a replacement anyways, since the display is mailfunctinous. Nokia is unfotunally a brand i won't support , since they decidet to close down a local factory. Thats what i thought myself i don't want the greatest so i actuallyso i actually bought the iphone 11. The promise of longlivety help imo thanks mate. You might have a phonecase suggestion as well?
  2. Hello there, recently istarted to get really annoyed with my xiaomi pocophone. I personally think the phone is and was vastly overradet, more on that on my list of personal frustration on the bottom wich you could skip trough. I even considered the pixel 4, but the price is to high for it. It was around 480€ last week, but i could not take the deal due to corona. Anyhow im looking for a phone around 500€ or the iphone 11 with my personal criteria. It has to work properly without any annoying bugs It should have NFC Close to stock android as Possible regular updates to be more specific an update every 6 mounths at least. An up to date battery experience ( so no iphone se) no chinese brand phones (especially no xiaomi) Like you might find out by now, i dont have the need for the best camera,display, or the latest and greatest oddware technologie and what not. I just want a overall good experience as a user. Thats why i included the iphone 11, becaus i know the hardware might be not the best but overall its a pretty good phone, for simple use. My personal user profile i don't play any games on the phone i mostly use it for messaging. Browser research Youtube and Netflix Navigation Use time mostly during commuting to work, i barely do anything with it homewise Thanks for any help, since i really dont know what to pick. Stay healthy My personally frustration with the xiaomi pocophone So first of the most annoying points of this phone. It does really suck on the notification side. I sometimes don't get any notifications for gmail in particular or i get some notifications without any news. Also the phone always sends out notifications whenever its updating Apps in the background, which even when its deactivated, will still put them out. It's outrageos and also happens on my dads xiaomi mi 9. The lack of NFC thesedays and even when the phone launched, is stupid imo and really makes no sense. Especially for a chinese phone where its even more spread to use your phone to pay with it. The Mi UI is just plainfully awful in any possible way. Long gone are the times, where any phone had just the stock android version from scratch and any settings where avalable across all phones. I mean i have been an android user since i got the lg p990 in 2010 and even i lost track of how to set up some things or even navigating trough the settings can be painful on the latest android UI's from any manifacturer. Especially xiaomis standart apps for stuff like photos,emails and what not are just so less intuitive, that as an experienced user you all the sudden feel like having to learn basics on a phone again. I mean it would be fine if it was a progressive learning thing, but most of the time its something like, i wanted to look for data and i have to look through any folder on the phone, since in some cases the data does not get shown in the pre categories. Last but not least the battery management is pretty terrible, the phone lasts in standby with wifi turned on only two days, which is unaccepteble for that capacity. I could go on with that list but even i feel like the rant is not worth it, yet i wanted to share my longtime thoughts with this phone.
  3. bequiet shadowrock 2 there is no better one in my opinion, if size does not matter. Elsewise this thing can handle high temparatures very well and here is the Physical phenomeom behind it. How penguins stay warm
  4. Well i got the Razer basilisk and it served me well since a year. Its almoust anytime on sale for like 40$-50$.
  5. Hello im using the Koss porta pro's currently i have been a fan of them for a long time. I had them pretty much for the past 10 years. Now i currently am getting a bit annoyed that the jack gets pulled out a lot of my phone because of gaps bewteen seats and so on. Sounwise i would prefer something similar to them and their functionallity. You can put them in nearly any Jacket pocket and they are really light weight, also they have a open backcover. Now i saw there is a Bluetooth version now of them though i dont know how good they are because they are hard to gind in Europe since the store decidet to sell them exclusively. Is there any good alternative? Bose sounds btw. unatural to me
  6. Last time i did that was when Fallout 4 launched and back then the most frustrating thing was that it was one disk inside of it and i still had to download most of it. I mean its not that worse like GTA V where you had 12 Dvd still not all data and it took way longer than downloading on 6mb/s
  7. i see what op means. 70 € for a swap seems still to much if the producer could design the phone like earlier to have a acessable batterie where you would only pay 20€. Also this is still prohibited in EU under the law to save on electronic waste. Paying fines is cheaper though, than designing. The last one i knew which had it was the LG 5, the modular Phone.
  8. It's a Bequiet one i think their Powerzone. No,for instance those scores only apply to 1080p Userbench estimatet FPS ingame, while it would be possible to play heavy titles on 144hz not even completely. Thats why im not interested in 4k in general, since i also play games like overwatch, a game that relys on high refreshrates. Well this is my conclucion so far, its to early for 4k at 144hz, its the time where 1080p is fully adopted right now. A rx580 is not an upgrade at all from the r9. Just see it as 1070ti vs. 1080 vs. 2070 (predicted), 1080ti . Thats just hard but after all the that i think i will really consider the 1070ti rog from asus which is priced at 480€, inluding Destiny 2 and Black Ops 4, seems like a good deal somewhat.
  9. IBM Model m this one does the least look gamery i think, can relate that it has always been a good and annoying option to play with in my youth. A more serious recomendation is this one at 78 pounds, :Logitech g413
  10. AMD is not an option though, since my experience from the R9 and even their FX-CPU's was really mediocre. Although i gotta say it is propably the well aged card ever, it always had stability issues, thermal trotteling trough bad implementatinon in drivers and games (especially Battlefield 4, a amd r9 optimized title was really made poorly optimized). And in general all the really annoying workarounds for any lack of especially Developers mostly fault. Don't get me wrong but that always was tirering me, a lot of games where or are just really bad optimized for AMD stuff, best example is Overwatch. It took amd about 2 years after launch to finally adressed the instability issues and lag issues, blizzard did not help though. Also is there CPU lineup and always was spec- wise better than most of the intel stuff, but again poor optimization lead to lag, FPS drops and so on, so definly a no-go. I'm not a fanboy though i gotta say if you want to have less issues and a easy experience, go with intel and geforce. Anyways the budget is only restricted on the gpu, i was planning on getting one and in two to three mounths upgrading the rest including the monitor, mabey a secondary 4k screen for singleplayer games. thank you anyways, its still heplful mabey atleast reusing the r9 for a freesync monitor, to save some bucks.
  11. 1080p @ 144hz and g-synch its the asus he248qe. germany and budget isaround 600€ ish.
  12. Hello, after looking trough tons of reviews and posts, i find myself in a weird spot. Just for comparison on Pricing in especially germany i will list some cards for you to mabey help me. all these will be partnercards such as evga from trrustworthy sources, on stock and including shipping. The prices compasred to used only change for the 1080 about 50€, so thats out. 1070- Starts at 410€ MSI(truely not an option compared to the ti version) 1070ti- Starts at 460€ new (MSI) 1080- Starts at 520 (Gigabyte WF) 2070- approximatly 600€ 1080ti 780€ Yes sure my Rig( following underneath) won't be ideal for 1080 overclocked and it could potentional cause some bottleneck. Im looking for something which handles some of the upcoming games like Battlefield 5 or even later Cyberpunk without any Problems. I am also considering a full upgrade, like a new MB and a i5 8600k sooner after the GPU, if ram prices go down a little more. Please help me, even with all the infos i got it's not making it any better. Current rig I5 4690k @4.3ghz MB : asus h87 plus R9 290 Sapphire Vapor X 16gb ram 16000mhz PSU 750w 3 SSD's a regular HDD The Case is a FD meshify c
  13. yup no problem the hs70 comes with an usb adapter. The entry versions eighter with two 3.5mm jacks or just usb. well i tryed both, the voids are on ear phones the hs series is over ears. Sound wise i can only say after having the hs for a mounth now that im happy for gaming but elsewise i use others. Gaming headsets in general dont sound that well when it come to music.
  14. i got the corsair hs70 and even the more budget version of it is basically the best i had so far comfort wise. The senheiser onces for around 80€ are even better. Razer is unfortunally not good for headsets ,especially if your head is larger.
  15. I dont think thats needet tbh. I have the i 5 4690k @4,2 ghz and its a quad core cpu with no threading.It's fine for gaming would also hold up better on 4k, but i play at 1080 max because i dont have nor do i plan to go 4k because of the prices. However the cpu could benefit for later upgrades like the 2070 which would be bottlenecked i think. Anyways a 2600x will still hold up to five years, while you would get not that much more performance gaming wise of a 2700x paired with a 1070/ti.
  16. i would suggest the same go for the ti,im in the same Situation, while i propably want to see the 2070 performance first since for me there is not much of a diffrence between those eigther . A 1070 ti or not is 450 €ish a 1080 is 550€ and the 2070 is going to be 550ish . Though a 2070 would requir me to upgrade my cpu as well propably.
  17. I'm happy with the power of the rtx 2080. I only do not understand is their pricing. Sure in general it's a lot ant its not way better than the 1080ti, which is OK since they went a ne path. I only don't get why in Germany the reference card which is quality and asthetic wise is cheaper. I mean i take IT
  18. This really is horrible, europe has similar pricing it seems although germany has a 19% Tax on them its 200€ which equals 220$ more than the msrp currently for the 2080. I know nvidia wants to get rid of their left pascal cards but seriosly, nobody knows so far if the raytracing tech will be anything worth in a long run, and also the 2080 has only 8gbs ram which was the top tear back when i got my r9 290 which was five years ago. But since my r9 says c9 i have to go with at least the 2070
  19. i would say no as long as the clockspeed is the same. Elsewise the faster one would adapt to the slower one. A good tip here is mabey to check pricing for a little higher clockspeed, sometimes they can be cheaper or at least the same price.
  20. I see same struggle and investing in rgb seems not worth it since I do not have any rg ports on my Mainboard eighter. I will repot if I found something.
  21. Did you found any good onces? I want to add some as well but im also affraid it will not look as planned, since purple is a hard color for rgb`s. I luckily had a coolermaster aio with rgb fans from which i would say purple looked the best,however matchink it to razer periphials is a true nightmare and thats why i would rather have a static purple color led and not rgb stuff. However its less pricy than this Bitfenix Alchemy 2 i would even go for rgb. One Strip of 30cm is about 20€, way to overpriced im my opinion, if you can get 10m of chinese rgb strips plus controller for 5€ more.
  22. Well I had the same struggle then decidet to try the ml240l since Amazon had it for 50€. Now one thing before this might be an rma case I yet don't know but the fans are terrible loud and also the Temps in general went up. Iam contacting cm currently. I replaced an alpenfön sella with a 92mm fan on it. On load the sella was running 20 degrees cooler than on the master liquid. Masterous because the sella is 12€. Turning up or down did not approve anything. This in a case like the meshify I got is just laughteble. Anyways since that's for me at least some rma case I can't nor won't buy an aio anywhere soon.
  23. no, its just hard to clean so i did it right there.
  24. The psu itself has a fan controller but only for case fans, the psu fan itself is constantly running. I had asked that as well when I contacted bequiet but since I had the psu since 2014 I was sure it was always running
