Need recommendations on portable monitors. Im an Engineer and don't need super color accurate screens ( I have my blue light filter on 24/7 feel free to roast me). I mostly want something that would work well for both on a plane and on a random table or desk. I'm not sure what kind of budget I'm in, but considering the other solution coworker have (see below) is about $500 Id think anything $200 and below would be easily approved. Some of my coworkers have the Xebec TriScreen (LTT did a video on this linked below) I tried a coworkers the other day and couldn't stand it. I am looking at other solutions to request. The one coworker who really liked the Xebec said he used it on a flight. Which I could see being nice since it doesn't require additional tray footprint.

Hello everyone looking for some help finding a laptop. 1. I've been trying to find a website where I can get benchmarks on diffrent games with a particular laptop but that does not seem to exist in the same way with components for a desktop. If anyone knows of one let me know I could use it to make a decision. 2. I want a computer to game and stream when I travel. I vacation for months out of the year and want something I can play Cod warzone and stream it. Looking to spend $2,500-$3000 but I want to make sure it can run it at least 120 fps. Ps. I would prefer something with a screen over 17in. Thank you in advance. .

Budget (including currency): $2500 USD Country: USA Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Gaming, School, Programming, Travel Other details (Important): I am attending college this semester and traveling a great distance across the country without a car. My primary mode of transportation to and from home will be by plane. With this in mind, I currently have a desktop at home. Though I am worried about moving it cross country especially with how often I'd be going back and forth between the two. Additionally I'd need to be able to play games on this device as I am on an eSports scholarship. My current ideas are, a laptop (unsure of what laptop currently). A small form factory PC, that I can put in my carry onbag. Also I'm not afraid of building a PC, I have built a few, and helped with many. Or shipping my PC cross-country and remove the GPU. BIggest issue with the last idea is just the frequency of moving. Likely, I'll be moving between home and college 4~ times a year in addition to any LAN events I'd attend. Obviously I don't want to have to spend money if at all possible, but if it's something I have to do, I will do it. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated! (Edit : Tags, and Use)

I know I saw the video about the skate attachment for shoes that you have to walk to use, but the Airtrick seems a bit cooler. Anyone seen them in the wild or heard anything about them? I need real Airgear in my life... Airtrick eskatesAirtrick eskatesAirtrick eskates

Hey guys not sure if this is the right part of the site to ask about this but I'll be moving soon for college across country and I'll be taking a plane and I need some help and advice with how I should transport my computer. Currently I plan to disassemble most of the parts leaving the chassis pretty much empty and hand carrying my HDD and SSDs with me along with my GPU and Motherboard but I do plan on leaving the CPU in the Motherboard socket but I don't know if that's safe? I didn't wanna bring the CPU box since it's really bulky but if I have to do so to make sure it's safe please do tell. Everything else besides that will be pretty much be put in their original box. Another concern I have right now is they don't have any anti-static bags big enough for my HDD and I was thinking of using paper bags to use as an alternative as that's what I've seen to do online, is that still viable advice or is that misinformation? I was going to order it online but it would take 2 weeks and my flight is in a week so that was poor planning on my part.

Hey everyone - I’m a freelance video producer and need to buy a laptop that allows me to edit on-site for quick turnarounds. Currently edit on a desktop system with a Ryzen 7 3700x and a 3070. Looking for a windows machine with a light enough weight to not be a huge burden for travel but has the power to handle 4k editing when needed. I know I’m describing a mac here but I’d prefer a windows laptop. Budget is 1500 but I can kick it up to 2000 if it’s mandatory.

Hello people! I am planning a ~14 Day Roadtrip around the US Westcoast with my GF next year. The idea is to start in San Francisco and then drive over LA to Las Vegas and fly back from there. Now the thing is, all the stuff you find online is tourist crap and I want to get some natives first hand experience here. 1. What are places worth visiting? 2. What are places not worth visiting? 3. Any hotels recommendations? 4. Transportation in the big cities (don't want to waste half the vacation in traffic :D) 5. Others? 6. Tips and tricks? For example we are thinking about visiting Grand Canyon while in Vegas but it's like a 5h drive so it kills an entire day, is that worth it? Thaaaaanks!

Hey guys I might be moving into a van or camper semi full time. I was wondering if anyone here had experience with actual desktop setups in campers/vans. Is a Desktop PC even feasible for something like this? Or should I just be looking at a laptop for the efficiency it brings. I already have a desktop with a 3080, so if I could keep it that'd be great! Maybe something like a battery backup would be in order to smooth out the spikes. (Also I would be plugged into an external outlet while gaming) Any insight is appreciated ^^

Hi everybody, I'm planning on traveling to Germany on september and I'm considering buying a new PC case for my computer. The one the I currently have is the Meshify C, which is a wonderful case, but is has several problems design-wise, like the front panel flter which is a pain to clean, and a little bit of damage. By damage I mean that some of the pcie screws are stripped (the two ones that hold the gpu on the x16 slot). Anyways, I plan on buying a Meshify 2 Compact Dark TG and bring it on my checked luggage. I'm traveling with my little brother so his checked baggage will be mostly empty aside from clothes. The question is, it is doable and worth the hassle? Buying it in my country (Uruguay), is almost impossible without importing it from overseas, and taxes are outrageously high so buying it would be more than double the price of the pc case.

Hello, I am a college student planning to stay on my campus during the summer. In about a week, I'm gonna be home for a few days and I plan to bring my PC back to campus (it's about a 3-hour drive). I've watched Linus' video on packing and moving PCs, and have an understanding of what I need to do, although I don't think I have most of the packaging materials. I plan on taking out the GPU, CPU cooler (air cooler), and hard drive. I have the original boxes for each of these, but I don't have any of the original bagging. For the RAM, I'll make sure to zip-tie the edges of the slots. I'll also be taping all loose wires to the bottom of my case. From there, I'm not sure how to go about filling the case with packing materials, or how to protect the outside of the case (I don't have the original box for my case). If anyone has recommendations for certain materials to purchase (either online or at a store), please let me know. Also, my monitor will be in its original box, which should be safe. Here's my parts list: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/TRCgrr

I'm going to be moving soon, and I will be taking my PC (Mid-tower ATX case) with me. I am also a college student, and have considered bringing my PC to my dorm room as well. I could simply buy a pack of instapaks for safely travelling with my PC, although I'm curious if there's a reusable alternative to instapaks.

Hi guys! I will be moving soon to Tanzania (not reliable electricity neither internet - need for battery and at least 1TB storage), and I am looking for a laptop that fits me, could you please help me? I am a computer engineer and video game's developer, but lately, I've been kind of lost with PC hardware... I am looking for a laptop with as much battery life as possible, but powerful enough to develop "indie games" and other software. Then I'd love to have repairability and, if possible, quality parts/structure. So far, the one that have caught my eye is the Framework Laptop (with an i7-1280P). However, it is a bit too expensive for me, and I am not sure about it not having a dedicated graphics card. Do you have any recommendations for my use case? Thanks!!!!

Good morning, I am looking for wireless microphones to travel with and record everything (kind of IRL stream) preferably with 2 sources. I have in mind traveling to another country with my cousin for 2 weeks. It's going to be my first trip "alone" (without parents) so I want to try and record everything. Already configured everything on our phones to stream youtube/twitch to have all the videos saved up in real time to the cloud so when we come back, we can watch our adventures again hehehe. What I'm looking for: - Wireless microphone (Bluetooth if possible) - Cheap (Under 50€ if possible) - Portable (To clip it on clothes) - 2 Sound sources (For me and my cousin) What I want it's something like "RØDE Wireless Go II" but on the cheaper side. Basically 2 microphones and 1 receptor (or bluetooth mic to the phone). This costs 300€ What I've found is something like this but I would like it to be Bluetooth with 2 sound sources: This costs 15€ (it's on sale atm) This one with 2 sound sources for 50€ but no bluetooth: https://www.amazon.es/DayDup-Micrófono-Inalámbrico-Portátil-transmisión/dp/B0BL767821 Does anybody already tried a bluetooth wireless portable microphone that works fine and do the job for under 50€? Thank you everyone!

Hi, so I'm currently getting ready for a big move and a little short on time (Next week is the date) I was wondering if it's possible for me to put my PC in a suitcase, pad it with clothes and put a T-Shirt or two inside to keep everything inside safe, not much of a tech savy guy, also don't have access to any of that PC foam that typically is used.

Looking for a Mechanical keyboard for traveling to and from work, also to be used when overseas (whenever that happens again). So i'm looking for a smaller board with these requirements, never had anything less then a full keyboard before so it will be a change. Main driver at home is k70 with cherry red but im up for anything. I've looked at the velocifire series, the M2 looks interesting, the Qisan 60%, the Keychron and the Anne pro 2. But ive got not that much of an idea on what i should be looking for in these smaller boards, including if they are wireless the benefits between bluetooth and wireless. Cheers for your help gang

So, I've been having some trouble with my laptop lately, and if I can't sort it out I've been considering using the opportunity to build an actual rig. That said, I travel a lot. To the point that it has been the deciding factor in choosing between a tower and a laptop. That said, I had an idea for a case that I wanted an opinion on. Assuming that I can buy or fabricate a case similar to the one used on Max's first pc build, (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qOw7TsIbmeM) where everything is bolted to the case would it be a safe case to travel with? In carry-on for example. My assumption is that having the GPU mounted to the actual case and maybe even having extra retaining mechanisms for the RAM would mean that as long as I had it in my carry-on, I would be able to transport it relatively easily. Does that hold true? Or would that be a bad idea and I should just get another laptop?

I am looking for some good software options for an idea I have for a road trip, however what I have in mind will almost certainly not work too well with modern navigation... well anything, I want to drive ALL the way around my state but NEVER once leave my state, no border/state line crossing, no shortcuts to save time - NO OPTIMIZATION. I want to drive the roads that are as close/the closest to my state border for my entire drive, all the while *never once leaving my state (*some exceptions for sleeping can be made but I must return to where I was last). I am currently looking at Google Earth Pro for desktop and (hopefully) exporting/importing the path to my phone for easy navigation in my car, but I want to make sure I use the best tool for my project, especially since (I assume) all modern navigation apps will help you find the best path for you, in my case, there really only is one path I can take but with way too many points to start at. I have seen another thread talking about Google Earth pro and using paths on phones, but I don't think they had much success: Thread: google maps is literally bad and I don't have a built in power outlet to charge my laptop to help me navigate over my phones connection via tethering, and I don't want to wait up to a couple hours to charge it when I could be driving instead; and to all the older people out there saying "Oh! Just use a paper map!", I will not have anyone with me for the entire trip and I don't think I will be able to collect enough detailed maps to follow my path down the many very obscure roads that are FAR less traveled. I don't really have an answer as to why I want to do this, just a stupid idea from the bottomless pit of hellish future planning that my mind tends towards quite often. What do you think? Is there better software I could be using, or even a special site/premade course somewhere within the deep dank basement dust of the almighty search engines? TL:DR I need the most wack navigation/course plotting software out there to follow the path that stays as close to my state border lines as possible, even if that means jumping on and off of any and all freeways/highways(somewhat joking), going down dirt/gravel roads, or even through the most obscure roads that very few travel. sorry for the awful mountain of text, I am awful with wording things and explaining my ideas with few words, once again sorry. -ActuallyNotACanadian

I am going traveling in a few months, and I was hoping to purchase two high-capacity portable hard drives for storing photographs. I would like to have two of the same, one for everyday use, and the other for weekly back-ups. Durability is a crucial point, as I am traveling by bicycle and this really isn't the most ideal position for a drive. I am willing to spend up to $200CAD per drive, and the drive should be around 3-4tb. I know this is asking a lot, but hopefully somebody has an ideal product recommendation. I already have a few drives, but I certainly wouldn't trust them with anything critical.

I want 4k monitor i can travel with. I want great IPS panel with as much color accuracy as possible. i would prefer not to spend over 1000usd. I would want to be able to put it in luggage safely. So if it comes with special protective cover i would be happy. Seize... I work on 24 inch screen, if i can get one in that seize I would be happy. I also consider just a compact panel. I use some cheapo ACER monitor which is actually around 1cm thick. So it survives travel being wrapped in soft clothes fine. I want 4k ips badly popovartem01.com for my work, to know what i do.

I'm flying to Bangkok tomorrow for a short vacation. I've never been to Thailand before and haven't had much time to research. I've found this community to be very helpful in the past, so now I'm trying with a non-tech question! I'm traveling with a friend and we'll also be visiting Krabi province in the south. Any and all tips and suggestions are welcome. Thanks!

I am moving to Bolivia, (shipping my computer over there is ultra expensive) so I want to take it with me in-flight as a carry-on. Here are the carry on luggage requirements specs 40lbs (Dimensions 22" x 9" 14") American Airlines Here is my current build: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/Gionani7/saved/hN4sYJ Ideally I just want to change my case (don't care about aesthetics) and switch my cooler from liquid to air because TSA wont permit my cooler for travel. Additionally if you have experience flying with your rigs I'd love to hear about it. Thanks, In Advance Guys P.S. Linus if your out there I'd love a Video explaining how to overcome this btw.

Sup folks, I'm looking for a good productivity laptop for college and travel. I'm looking for the following things: 15" maximum screen size LED backlit keyboard Windows 10 OS 1080p or greater (preferably) screen resolution Thin Light Preferably aluminium or other metal finish It doesn't need to be extremely powerful, I just want it to be good for watching films on the go, basic photo and video editing, writing Word documents and basic web browsing such as YouTube, Amazon etc.. Thin- and lightness is also important, as I travel a lot and want to be able to take it with me everywhere. SSD would be nice too, but I think most laptops at this pricepoint have one nowadays. Thanks in advance! Regards, TJ
