    Le Sulfur got a reaction from BluJay614 in Anyone seen one or tried one out?   
    We have the non-Omen model on display at work, it honestly seems way too big to be used practically, unless it's at least 5 feet away, because really it's a lot more like a small tv. With that said it does look nice, wouldn't really recommend it for gaming though (if that's what your use will be). Better off with a 27 inch 1440p 144hz for gaming in my opinion. I suppose for heavy multitasking on one monitor it's not bad. Or if you watch a lot of movies on your computer.

    Really does sound like a hardware issue. Checking amazon reviews it seems other people have had this issue. Did you check to see if it still has Lenovo's manufacturer warranty on it?

    Oh god I agree so much, I don't use any tablet myself, but unless we're talking about the surface, windows tablets in general are god awful and usually should never be suggested to someone wanting an actual tablet experience.

    FALSE information in this thread.
     
    For a radiator to mount to a G12 it needs to have a circular pattern with notches on the bottom not on the whole pump assembly. 
     
    How do I know?
     
    I have a 1080 ti with a Kraken g12 with a 100i v2 and it fits fine

    32 Gigs of ram, will be nice if you do a lot of heavy editing, you need an x370 board if you ever want to add a second gpu, ryzen 7 1700 is pretty good for vfx and video editing, you get 8 core/16 threads instead of 4/8 for a 7700k, though the 7700k is still a solid performer. Decent liquid cooler, could get a better one for like 40 bucks more with a 240 mm rad instead of a 120. Also a white, nice looking color theme, if you're into that.

    Le Sulfur reacted to LinusTech in I have a floatplane Idea   
    There are a handful of exclusive videos but they are more behind the scenes and very low production value. 
     
    If we are going to put a bunch of time investment into something we want as many people as possible to see it. 
     
    If its not worth showing to everyone, it probably wasn't worth spending so much time on. 
     
    With that said, serialized higher production value "show-like" formats will continue. We still want corporate sponsors to take some of the risk out of it for now but if Floatplane continues to take off the way it has, it's possible to go the Netflix approach more investment into "originals". 
     
    I dunno. We are at a very interesting crossroads right now. Viewers are changing. The online video business is changing. Maintaining the status quo is NOT going to drive growth for us. 
     
    So at some point soon here we are going to have to reinvent ourselves again. 
     
    Let's see what we come up with.....

    7700k for 1080ti.
    monitor should either be IPS 4k or 144hz 1440p. 
    i would like to think any z270 motherboard would work decently well for overclocking
