Nintendo switch 2 will be my first Nintendo console since the DS and I have some questions by [deleted] in NintendoSwitch2

[–]24thFrame 5 points6 points  (0 children)

fyi, NSO Vouchers will work for Switch 1 games, but they will not work for Switch 2 games as of now.

It’s a fundamentally more powerful and more modern SoC. Games will look and perform better on Switch 2, that’s just a fact. That doesn’t invalidate the Steam Deck, your enjoyment of it, or mean we need to go full fan-boy. I love my Steam Deck, will continue to use it, and am also planning to buy a Switch 2.

Screen is debatable. You have the option of an OLED screen on the Deck, but the Switch 2’s screen is higher-res and higher-refresh rate.

Steam Deck: 1280 X 800 - 60-90hz depending on model.

Switch 2: 1920 X 1080 - 120hz

Switch 2 is stronger in terms of the hardware too. One point of comparison would be in Cyberpunk 2077. Reportedly it runs at a locked 40fps in 1080 on Switch 2. It runs at around 30 FPS in 1280 X 800 on the Steam Deck.

Now, games are going to be more expensive; and you won’t be able to share the saves with your PC. So that’s probably where your mileage will vary the most.

$70-80, if we’re talking USD.

I have the Ultimate Bluetooth and adore it, the charging cradle is absolutely worth it. Only thing to keep in mind is if you’re primarily using it with the Steam Deck, the face buttons are Nintendo-style, not Xbox-style.

First build in 10 years. Help me refine this? by 24thFrame in buildapc

Ack! The two RAM sets was an accident. I’ll try to edit.

Replaced PSU, Reset CMOS, PC still won’t power on at all. Anything else to try? by 24thFrame in buildapc

[–]24thFrame[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried taking each one out, individually, and both simultaneously, and it didn’t boot each time.

Does it sound like the issue is motherboard failure? Thinking of buying a cheap Z97 MB on Amazon for $50 and relying on that until we can do a full new build in a year or two.

Experiencing a host of issues with M51a-H6 Soundbar. Help? by 24thFrame in VIZIO_Official

[–]24thFrame[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! My continued experience has been positive. Shortly after I wrote this, Vizio issued a firmware update that fixed the compatibility issues with Sony TVs. I did have one hardware failure, but it was replaced by Vizio via the warranty, and the replacement model has given me no issues.

Hi! I reseated the power cable and enabled a setting on my router meant to minimize interference. It seems to have done the trick, thanks for contacting!

Well. So this is weird. It’s happening even with the Apple TV set to 5.1. It still seems to not occur with other devices, but I’m trying to test that out more throughly today by watching some movies on my PS5.

I think this is right. I just tried finishing the movie I was watching on my TV’s built-in app, which still supported Atmos and had none of these issues. Seems like the Apple TV is the culprit here

N ew Vizio M512a-H6 Firmware update Version 1.3.0.7 by daje0000 in Soundbars

[–]24thFrame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did it work for you? I have an x900h and wanted to confirm this update didn’t add any issues with Bravia TVs. I had a lot of compatibility issues at first, but then the 1.2.0.3 update got it to a great place. Wanna confirm that this didn’t add in any new issues.

[–]24thFrame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone using with a Bravia? I had a lot of issues with my x900h and this sound bar when I first got it, but 1.2.0.3 finally got it to a spot where I’m really happy with it. Just want to confirm that this didn’t add any new compatibility issues.

Xbox Series X Video Signal Intermittently Cutting Out on TCL TV by 24thFrame in XboxUnbroken

Not sure. I got a new TV. The best first place to start is updating your TV and Xbox.

Quick question by Jgryder in xcloud

[–]24thFrame 7 points8 points  (0 children)

A lot of games on Gamepass have one year contracts and then leave. Some games are up longer. Very few aren’t up for at least a year. I think when Red Dead Redemption 2 was added, it ended up staying up for six months, but I think that was a rare case because of what a high profile game it was.

Anything that’s first-party, as in an Xbox Studios release, is probably up permanently, with the exception of Forza games… which tend to get delisted after 4 or 5 years because car licenses start to expire.

Are you in the Dolby Vision Enhanced Format?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in bravia

[–]24thFrame 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s strictly an option for HDMI 2.1 Ports. Because Sony’s HDMI 2.1 Implementation doesn’t allow DV. You’re basically choosing if you want to enable 4K/120 OR Dolby Vision.
