  1. Budget (including currency): Lower is better. Country: Canada Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: HDR gaming and movies; computer runs both VR and TV... want to put the box in the room with the best AC and run a line out. 10G to a mini micro only gives me SDR and laaaaaaaag. Other details: I saw the optical thunderbolt video and I'd like to find another option besides a 1500$cad cable + hubs + expansion cards by the time yer done. Just trying to get this 800w spaceheater out of the living room. Ideas?
  2. title, even with a new brick. Guessing something is going... Anyone else having this issue? 2hr battery life on 10+hr flights is rage inducing. Ever tried inflight entertainment? its terrible, trust me. TBF it spends 80% of its life crunching data in hotel rooms or gaming... probably cooked something inside it? Who makes good bang-for-buck laptops in '23? I'm not interested in paying the shiny tax; theft target.
  3. Heat is exponential, a 50% clock reduction will remove the heating issues and greatly reduce demand to ~40w, totally viable on a mobile platform. 400$ chip, 400$ card... even with the laptop tax it shouldn't be over 3k unless you're putting too much weight on making your box a fashion statement. I don't really follow the industry anymore since getting a cushier job, I just want a travel laptop that has some actual grunt behind it without popping breakers or weighing 25lbs. From what I can gather, those chips are simple, small, overpowered, and easy to mass produce. Won't be long before we see them everywhere. Makes sense to me to see them go all in with that 3d cache tech.
  4. Want a 7800x3d mobile [shown super power efficient, perfect mobile chip if under-clocked no?] and a power efficient 7600 card [after that memory sharing] 96wh battery. 17 inch, decent cooling. Pricing under 3k preferred.

    32:9 2160p?

    Does it exist yet? Is anyone working on one?
  6. Here's a strange request for anyone in the know. I have been tasked to set up monitoring stations, that take images at 10 minute intervals... in the middle of nowhere. These stations are in northern canada at the far extents of the cell network. Ideally I would like a webcam all in one solution that can automatically take an imagine and transmit. I've looked into trail or critter cams, but they appear to only be motion sensor activated. So my question is this: are there any that someone knows is capable of a time-lapse mode (take interval photo->transmit). Will be hooking up to a 12v battery bank and solar system. Before I go and take the time to construct a fleet of super complex razpi, I'd like to know if there's a simple plug and play option. Thanks guys!
  7. I'm looking for a super-ultra-wide monitor that is essentially 2x 4k displays glued together. It will be replacing my current 2x 1080 gaming monitors on individual mounts. It MUST be mountable on an arm. don't care about refresh rate. Good colours are required [mostly used for video editing]. Do they even exist yet? When do you think we might see them?
  8. Solved: Asus tuf Ryzen, just released. Battery is lacking but everything else checks out. 1200CAD
  9. Yes, from the tower.... hence the wanting "a 65inch monitor"
  10. Like the title says, I just want a TV that has an HDMI input(s); signal goes in, signal gets displayed. Like a monitor, but you know... 65 inches. All programming runs off the tower, no need for that crappy painfully slow smart stuff. Is this a thing that even exists? ...Or am I looking exclusively at projectors now?
