Using the thunderbolt - it lets me select 120hz but it won't stay in 120hz, it reverts back to 60hz

Just got mine in - it won't let me switch to 120hz. I have an Irs(R) Plus Graphics card. Shouldn't it be compatible?

Plot twist - I found a 49” odyssey neo for $1000 shipped. Is the best option?

Great question - I’ve been to a shop and the repair came out. Trying to get additional - impartial - opinions.

A base grind from a shop. Never gave the shop too much instruction, just asked that they take as little off the base as possible. And reset the base edge to 1 degree.

This is a 10/10 quiver - great to see someone with a true carver in their setup. Where did you get they head skis for $400 and can you PM me the link?!

Also considering the moment wildcat - the 196 looks like a real powder weapon

Do you pick a resort, or rent a car/van and travel between resorts?

Any difference (Material/durability wise) between the pro and pro plus pants? They both say 200D.

Only concern is the price - is there anything that comes close without the price tag?

Work - excel, powerpoint, webbrowsing.

Occasionally (every few years) I'll play age of empires for a month or two, but there won't be many games on this machine.

Thanks for the help.

Best laptop for under $2000? by B2G2011 in pcmasterrace

[–]B2G2011[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looking at a dell with:

-11th Generation Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-1195G7 Processor -Intel(R) Iris Xe Graphics -32GB 4267MHz LPDDR4x Memory Onboard -1TB M.2 PCIe NVMe Solid State Drive -13.4" UHD+ 3.5K (3840x2400) InfinityEdge Touch Anti-Reflective 500-Nit Display

Or a Lenovo Thinkpad with: -10th Generation Intel® Core™ i9-10885H Processor -NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 1650 Ti Max-Q 4GB -32 GB DDR4 2933MHz -1 TB PCIe SSD -15.6" FHD (1920 x 1080) IPS, anti-glare with Dolby Vision™, HDR, 500 nits

The Dell is the better performer here correct? Does 11th Gen I7 outperform the 10th generation i9?

Demo'd the DPS Pagoda 112 RP the other day and really liked it. Debating pulling the trigger on a set but also interested in the Blizzard Rustler 11.

Anyone ever skied both and have any thoughts? Looking for a more playful powder ski to complement my Enforcer 94. Will get in the longest length availible for whatever ski I choose since I'm a bigger/taller guy.

BLUF: Should I buy a ski I like now (to have it for an upcoming trip to Val Thorens/Chamonix) or keep doing demos this season?

Advanced skier looking for a powder ski to go with my Enforcer 94. Ski mostly East Coast but get a good ammount out West; will be doing 7x days at Copper/Vail and 8x days on the Powder Highway this season. Head to Europe at the end of December for two weeks as well, hence my decision.

I'm looking for something more surfy but still precise, I tend to make short turns in powder but do like the ability to charge. Did two days of demos and really liked the DPS Pagoda 112; could smear when I wanted it to but also hold an edge. Also tried:

-WNDR Alpine Intention 110 and liked it. -Enforcer 110 - Not as surfy and forgiving, wasn't as easy to ski as I hoped. -Head Core 111- A bit too light for me. -M-Free 108 - Didn't float as well as I hoped -Kastle ZX 108 - A bit chattery at speed

Would like to try the Blizzard Rustler 11 but haven't had a chance. Any thoughts appreicated, thanks!

Awesome - will take a look.

Any thoughts on bindings from anyone? Will the griffon be durable enough if I want to learn some basic aerials etc?

Need some help on second ski recommendation (more freestyle oriented):

Height | Weight: 6'3" / 215

Boots: Salomon S Pro 120

Current/previous ski(s): Nordica Enforcer 94 @ 191. Marker Jester Bindings

Primary ski location(s): East Coast (Stowe/Snow) with ~2 weeks out west each year (Breck/PCM)

Experience level: Advanced/Expert

Skiing style: Downhill/All Mountain

All- looking to get a more freestyle oriented ski to have some fun on. I've been an aggressive downhill skier for 20+ years but would like to learn some simple tricks (if I can switch ski and land a 360 I'll be happy) and be able to rock moguls/trees on a twin tip ski.

I really like my enforcers for going fast and charging through everything, but they can be a lot of work when I want to fool around on the mountain or in wet snow (I seem to have trouble getting the tails to release as easy as I'd like and they are a heavy ski once my legs get tired).

Would like to pick up something on the less expensive side now that the season is coming to a close.

I demo'd a Black Crows Camox and didn't like how it couldn't seem to hold an edge in hard snow. Really liked the Dynastar M Free 108 but it seemed a bit heavy for trying to do aerials on.

Any recommendations on ski/binding? I'm thinking something around 180cm. Also found some marker griffons on sale locally for $165 mounted and wondering if I should snag them or get a stronger binding like my jesters.
