  1. So i posted this on a previous thread so I will copy paste it here. " Maybe best Idea would be too do a line of sling bags like peak design where you have like a small one that can hold just the essential, a water bottle and maybe a switch. Then one that could fit the everyday essential, plus either a steam deck or a 11 inch tablet, and a water bottle (This is the one I would like honestly). Then maybe a giant sling that can do daily carry like a laptop, work and daily carry essentials. Maybe all three bags could share overall features (besides the tablet, laptop sleeve) and those features would be scaled up depending on the size. That would mean that They can order the same materials for all of them, and then just decide the production allocation for each version."

  3. Okay, so I currently use a peak design sling for when I do not need to bring a backpack with me. So preferable a sling with the waterbottle holder, room for a 11 inch tablet, battery bank, cables, and medication.
  4. Actually, Airflow is pretty good. The bottom of the case is raised enough that the fans on the bottom can bring in alot of airflow. While i was getting all the watercooling parts, i had it running with an aircooler and Temps were still good.
  5. Specs are Cpu: r7 5800x ram: 32gb corsair vengeance rgb ram motherboard: asus crosshair 8 dark hero graphics card: evga rtx 1660 (want to get a 3080 and watercool it) case: inwin 915 boot drive: WD an1500 (i love those big pcie slot storage cards) Game drive: WD sn850 2Tb pump/res combo: ekwb ftl 240 with a d5. waterblock: EKWB quantum something. radiator: corsair xr5 360. its not much but its mine just realized these old pics are with the B550 strix f-wifi but mostly still looks the same.
  6. So i was wondering if windows auto brightness adapt and learn when i adjust the brightness and have auto brightness ? I am just curious as it does seem to be learning, but i am not sure if that is just me, or it actually is and i did not find anything on the web.
  7. Thank you so much you guys!!! i really appreciate the the continued tips even though this post is pretty old.
  8. So using getting one of those manual camera apps should do the trick ?
  9. Hey, so i am wanting to take some really nice pictures of my PC with my Iphone, but the RGB always comes out way too in your face( i have tried with tempered glass on and off). Was wondering if any of you guys have tips for taking pictures or would it just be better with an actual camera xD
  10. I find the design of the cal digit one to be okay and i would absolutely use it, i just prefer the corsair design. That being said the corsair design does limit its ports more it seems. i am horrible and still have not started comparison shopping the two yet beyond looks xD.
  11. So i will be installing a thunderbolt 4 card in my PERSONAL RIG 2021 (i had to xD), because my case is a inwin 915 which is beautiful but getting access to the rear IO is a pain in the A##. So i have been looking around and i love the look of the Corsair thunderbolt 3 dock they just released, But the cal digit dock (the one Linus uses) looks more practical ( I have not started doing research into the exact specs of the two to compare). I am not limiting myself to just those 2 brands so i am open to any suggestions. But i wanted to know from my fellow techies what every one thinks is the best thunderbolt dock ?
  12. So i was looking around to see if i can get my hand on a mikrotik switch in Canada (specifically one of there Poe ones), but the sites i found on Mikrotiks site i am not sure of. I know they sell some on amazon but want a bigger one just to have to growing room and also, i wanna play with the bigger toys xD so shot over your places to buy mikrotik switches.
  13. I bought it used for 77 CAD with shipping included. I am gonna put it in the room beside the crawlspace so it will be cold but won't be as dusty.
  14. Oh, okay, thanks i know its over kill but i rather overkill then not enough xD
  15. Yeah, i am gonna put it in the crawl space at the bottom of the house. Do you have any recommendations for switches that have POE ? or would it just be easier to have the dell switch, and then a little switch for poe ? cause i am thinking of upgrading the wifi too.
  16. Hey Everyone! So i wanted to ask your opinion, i have plans to roll out a server for me and my family using used server hardware. But before i deploy it, i want to upgrade they home networking in my parents home to ensure that we don't encounter a bottleneck. So my first upgrade is to get a used enterprise networking switch to serve as the backbone of the network, and i am looking at getting a dell powerconnect 6248. I don't actually need all 48ports but i would rather have more ports then necessary in case, and it also looks looks better with 48ports since the 24 port has a huge gap. Anyway so i wanted your guys opinion on if this is a good switch ?
  17. Okay, so completely dumb moment for me but i completely forgot smb exists and so i successfully set up my server on my gaming laptop for my testing
  18. Well i would like the server to be able to be a target download location aswell, since my dad does the downloading on his computer, i would want to be able to have the downloads go straight to the server instead of his computer ?
  19. Omg, the legendary Lead eater :o do you mind if i DM you with somemore questions ?
  20. I did try setting up an FTP server in windows and actually getting it too work has been a complete pain. like its super intuitive.
  21. To start off, I don’t actually need a server but I want to get a used server to play around with, but before I go for it I want to figure out the file sharing plus (i am also in a computer engineering program so it would be a good learning experience). So I was I wondering what would be the best way to share files around my families house, a lot of it would be tv shows and movies my father downloads, and also. Putting games on the server so I don’t have to use the internet to download. Would be great if media could be accessed outside of the house over the internet. I am currently running the tests on my gaming laptop I barely use so that is the testing hardware I am using before moving forward.
  22. So i just wanted to give you guys an update, i so i think instead i will get a samsung 970 evo 1Tb. it will be plenty fast enough as it will be faster then the new xbox consoles ssd. so any multiplatform will have to target it. I should be able to carry it through atleast 2 builds
