    fred82 reacted to xg32 in Can QD-OLED survive 7-8 hours of Unreal usage per day?   
    I absolutely would not recommend qd-oled for 7-8 hours of work usage. Assuming you go with WOLED go with dark mode, full black screensavers, wallpapers etc.

    I think the AKG K702 might fit the bill for detailed.
    They're so detailed that I hate using them because it's so fatiguing, but man you can hear everything.

    he is right
    what you say is non sense. of course case matters. it is not only the importance of fans it is importance of how the case is made so to let the airflow going in the right way. there are many videos explaining it.

    fred82 reacted to tkitch in Optimal price range for a case?   
    incorrect.  You can have all the fans in the world, and STILL have shit for cooling:
     
     
    As for price?  Shipping a large metal box overseas is *expensive* and there's no way around that.

    fred82 reacted to Dedayog in Is this build overall good?   
    It was more that I wasn't going Nvidia after all their bullshit, plus a fantastic deal at Microcenter.  Intel doesn't bother me near as much as Nvidia.

    fred82 reacted to TheWesker in Planning a 3000$ (CAD) Workstation/Gaming PC build for Black Friday   
    I know, but Black Friday hasn't officially started yet. I'm hoping we'll get better deals this Friday because the price of the rx 6800 xt just went back up to 1200$ from 868$ today. If we don't I'll probably end up waiting some more for Boxing Day. Plus, the new AMD 7900 GPUs will be out by then.

    If you want to save a bit you could get the i7-13700K. It is quite powerful.

    I haven't included a GPU. For 1440 something like an RTX 3070 would be fine. In which case the PSU could be reduced to 850W. The PSU in this build presumes a more powerful GPU will be used.

    You might find a nice workstation with two CPUs in it and a server to run your VMs on on ebay for good prices.  The workstations tend to have a useful number of PCI slots, and you can put network cards into your server that support being passed through to the VMs.

    Its positions and views like this that create problems that don't exist.
    You need to educate yourself on how diversification works, better yet educate yourself on how the people are hired for their skills and not based on skin color.

    We've found similar quality vacuums. But not the same. Diminishing returns. I'm not the one who uses them daily so I can t really say she says her and her staff find the Dyson's and Miele tend to be the best and most efficient vacuums. These people use these vacuums pretty damn heavily. We like Dyson a lot though cause we tend to have the best customer service with them when we need parts replaced as it's basically no questions asked.

    Companies like this feed off of attention - this thread is no exception. A good percentage of the people behind these products don't believe any of the crap they're saying - they just realize that it's an easy way to make a buck.
     
    It's no different than any other consumer industry. "healing" bracelets, "RF protection" dongles, high-performance steering wheels for your car, carbon-fiber compass mounts for your racing sailboat, anything made by Dyson, etc.

    fred82 got a reaction from DuckyMomo.BDS in New desk   
    your answer for me is non sense:
    1. it is very unkind and i don't see the use to be so aggressive
    2. it is clear he wants advice about desk (i am looking too and hardly find the one i like so probably will make it myself) so this is a forum and it means help
    3. if answer would be "open google" or "open google maps" then most of subjects in this forum are useless since you can probably answer "open google"
    kindly

    fred82 reacted to minibois in what do you call this?   
    That is what I'd call a 'cardreader', which is a pretty wide product category, of anything from what you posted to something simpler for just SD and microSD.
    Usually these sorts are called "x-in-1", with the 'x' being the number different types of cards it can support (with the type posted probably being 3-in-1

    fred82 got a reaction from Peburu in Is this a virus.?   
    a "virus" can hide behind something that could look like legite process sure... but taht's very unlikely (very unprobable) anyway there
    so ok let see that:
    Realtek HD Audio  ok you know it is about audio from REaltek on your card
    here this is file and then process part of the audio tool for update (or removal) of driver 
    the size is ok for this file 
    if you would be an extremist of checking: you can check:
    right click on the process then properties :
    - you can check the directory and file : check with the antivirus this file
    - digital signature: take the sha-1 go to the virustotal website and check it : they'll say probably there (so many AVs) if legite 
    you can even check inside it the certificate (if you need help about it i can explain)
     
    don't worry 😄

    The Honeycomb, which designed primarily for weight, does have its pros based on your needs. It has no silly coating on it primarily so its basically just plastic and nothing else. I personally use some Grip tape on my Model D and love it to death.
