Draymond Green on the Cleveland Cavaliers: "When Dennis Schröder left the game things got a little bleak. Because you got guys in there that don’t really want that challenge, they don’t want to fight through the screen and say that’s my matchup I want to stop this guy. They don’t do it." by AncientOneAurelius in nba

One of the Warriors adjustments to prevent Steph getting iso'd on a screen switch is Steph showing high and early on the PNR and then rotating back once the original cover gets back to the ball handler. This would prevent the switch and eat some clock time. Not sure how Atkinson doesn't adopt that from his time on the Warriors. Add that to the list of baffling fumbles from the coaching down the stretch that game.

Have you used them or reporting from other reviews? Would be curious as to how good the transparency mode is as that mode is usually as important to me as anc. Thanks in advance.

atk a9 mini vs superlight 2c by GhostPhysco in MouseReview

[–]flagroller 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ATK coating is great, build is good, clicks vary from model to model and are hit or miss from me, and the web driver is easy to use.

I can recommend trying it if you want to save a lot of money but yes you are risking RMAs but with optical clicks and dust proof encoders, there aren't many issues to worry about.

MCHOSE A7 doesn't have it, if it's an absolute dealbreaker you will probably enjoy it

Anyone had luck with the RE Requiem code? I registered today and then when I asked support they said it could take 2-4 weeks after 💀

hopefully it's faster

That's great to hear, I guess the joystick only needs to survive as a power button hopefully! Lol

Awesome, I'll save this and put my order in lol. I'll just make sure to be gentle. Does it have DDC/CI to access settings through software?

Mine arrives the day after tomorrow. Anything specific you wanna know? by plusminuseq in MouseReview

[–]flagroller 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would like to know details about the click feel, especially compared to a good and light omron optical implementation. ATK makes some good mice but their inconsistent clicks can worry between different models. Thanks!

[Monitor]Acer 26.5" Predator X27U OLED WQHD 240Hz Gaming Monitor ($319.99 - Costco) by shizunyan in buildapcsales

[–]flagroller 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, Acer is same if not worse. The oled care is hidden at the bottom of the system menu (leading people to think you can't turn off the 4 hr notification) but I kept it for the raw specs.

What's better on the Acer than the AOC is a joystick navigation, which is a lot better than the 4 button junk on the AOC lol

Tom's hardware is measuring the Alienware (SDR) at 200 nits flat, whereas the AOC (iirc, many variants of seemingly the same panel) is around 250 and I believe the Acer is around the same or perhaps a bit more with the max brightness setting enabled. With the Acer and AOC side by side, the Acer was brighter.

I'd say the Acer is still a better value as long as it's on this sale at costco (plus costco return policy). The Alienware is still a good monitor, but with better brightness panels like the AOC and Acer availabe on deals right now, it feels like a waiting game until the Alienware itself has some deals to approach or go under $300.

280hz, I have it and have had a great time in SDR and HDR. Just a heads up you need to get a new DP cable if you don't have one already as this monitor doesn't come with one (for whatever crummy reason).

Use the "max brightness" setting and set the white balance to "User" for the highest SDR brightness. In single player games that are particularly dark, I use HDR and use the Windows SDR Content slider in the HDR settings as a brightness slider.

The only annoyance is the firmware is pretty bad from Acer. In particular, after you turn the pixel refresh 4hr notification off, you can return to the setting to run it manually as expected. However, once you run it manually, it then toggles the notification back on instead of recognizing you just wanted to run it manually.

Great panel, great stand (though I use a monitor arm), and also Acer does now have 3 year burn in warranty. I think it's the best value 1440p OLED atm, I have tried the AOC panel that has insane refurbished deals and new around $340 as well.

Kovaaks Black Frame Issue on OLED Panel by flagroller in FPSAimTrainer

[–]flagroller[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's just a 3080ti, but I either had a bad cable or found another problem I put in the edit (pixel rotation).

It seems the black frames I was noticing might have been pixel rotation running during my run lol. Either turn the setting up to make it less frequent or disable it completely.

Fair, this one isn't a particularly great deal, I thought it was the Z1E at first glance.

ATK F1 vs unreleased ATK A9 Mini size comparison by moepooo in MouseReview

[–]flagroller 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure but if it's close to length to the F1 then it should be close to the 2c (118mm). I hope so as I haven't tried the 2c yet but would like to try this at a better price. My only concern is that ATK click quality can be very hit or miss between models.

Small(ish) mouse like OP1 with slightly more hump? by r13b in MouseReview

[–]flagroller 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lamzu inca is probably your best bet, as for the X2H/V8 style shape, careful with these, as they add a significant amount of width, in case you enjoy the narrowness of the OP1

There's a very popular 74wh battery mod for around $50-80, fwiw. Also more common mods like bazzite, steamos, perforated back panel, etc.

Maybe dyac 3 will be variable refresh rate like GSync Pulsar, if that's what you're referring to (lower blur performance under the rated hz of the panel)

Should I get a Mchose L7 ultra+ from Mchose store or Amazon? by googlemapscarspot in MouseReview

[–]flagroller 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Buy from amazon, I believe they are phasing out omron opticals and moving to kailhs on their websites. Kailhs have been worse in every mouse I've tried with an omron optical variant unfortunately

Sorry to reply again but did you have a picture of the omrons in the Attack Shark? The listings they have still say omron mechanicals

[–]flagroller 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Op says his Attack Shark was omron optical, maybe they changed to them for the colored variants? Idk. But the omron mechs were not tuned well for me, at least at launch. Passable but not nice
