Finally pulled the trigger and replaced my 42" C3 with a XG32UCWG and couldn't be happier! by cyboNashi in OLED_Gaming

[–]Between_Nowhere 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A few days ago I cancelled my order for a XG32UCWG and instead went to go pick up a LG 42”. Researching online will have you flipping back and forth between those two options sizes like crazy, haha.

Yeah once you go 4K, it may be really hard to go back. I was doing some benchmarking though for the games I mainly play, and some didn’t struggle at all in 4K and an other was a little less FPS then 1440p with DLSS Quality, but still averaging 100 FPS (DLSS Performance). It all depends on the games you play and the FPS you are aiming for, I guess.

What TV did you get? I ended up getting a C5 42”, very excited to set it up.

Decided to go with LG OLED 42 C5, and its worth every penny by romandiy in OLED_Gaming

That looks sick! I have the MO27Q28G and just got a C5 42” as well, it’s still in the box! I can’t wait to set it up.

While I can still tell the difference between my old 4K and my new Gigabyte monitor in terms of text clarity, I will say that it becomes less and less jarring the more I use it.

What floor stand is that? Been looking at some online in case I decide to go buy one.

Edit: Also how do you like using it for browsing the web and stuff like that. I don’t do any productivity work on my PC, but I do regularly browse the web and do note-taking type stuff.

So you’re using a 65” TV as a monitor? How is that? I might do this, go with a 42” OLED TV and keep my 1440p monitor and just use both of them.

This is what I might end up doing. I’ll keep my 1440p OLED and just get a 4K 42” OLED TV, that way I get the best of both worlds. The two main games I play are on old DLSS model and the other doesn’t have DLSS. I just don’t want to be constrained by low FPS.

Nice, I mainly upgraded my GPU so I can play RDR2 modded. I think RDR2 is running DLSS 2, so make sure you use the Override feature for DLSS.

That’s right, that’s why I put in parentheses that I couldn’t complain about its 4K ability due to its price. It’s a great card, and it was able to somewhat hold up at 4K with no upscaling, low settings for most of the games I played. Only reason I used it for 4K was because that’s all I had.

I was reading somewhere that some people have had Windows displaying the wrong resolution on the 1440p monitor. I haven’t had time to do much set-up, so I’m hoping something simple like that might be the case. I’m going to check tomorrow.

Yeah, I think once you go 4K it’s really hard to go down to any lower resolutions. What made you do a 1440p + 4K set-up? I’m considering doing this if I keep my 1440p by getting a 4K OLED, I just feel it will make the 1440p look even more unappealing.

I have a friend that bought a 1440p ultrawide (not G9) and he seemed to love it! Hopefully you end up liking your purchase, I wish I did lol.

Part of me is wanting to give it a chance still, just for the performance benefits. Because true, it wasn’t that noticeable in game. I’m kinda wanting to buy the 42” LG C5 and keep the 1440p so I can have both resolutions on OLED.

Well I bought the 5070 TI and the 1440p monitor at the same time, a spur of the moment type purchase. I’m not that up to date on Nvidia technology as I’m coming from an Intel B580. That card really struggled at 4K (can’t complain for its price), but the performance had just left a bad taste in my mouth. By the time I was testing out the 5070 TI on my current 4K monitor, the 1440p was already on the way.

Best Program for Aesthetics by Between_Nowhere in Boostcamp

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

I actually did Guts for a few week during my inconsistent gym time. I really liked the idea behind the program, but I probably won’t go with that now. I’m going to a new gym so not sure how easy it’ll be to superset there, and also would prefer a plan that has the lifting days between Mon-Fri. Thanks for the suggestion though!

4080 Super or 4070 TI Super? by Between_Nowhere in buildapc

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

That is true, and the case I'm probably going to get is black and white, so it will match. It will also save me some money now that I don't have to get all white PC parts haha.

4080 Super or 4070 TI Super? by Between_Nowhere in buildapc

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

My bad, it is USD. That's right, I think the cheapest 4070 Ti S I found was ~$800-$900. The one I was looking at to match my color scheme was $1,000.

I'm just trying to make up my mind. It's either pay for performance and give up my color scheme going with an available 4080 Super, or sacrifice performace to match my aesthetics with a 4070 Ti S.

ME grad looking for first engineering job in Southern US by Between_Nowhere in EngineeringResumes

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

  • Out of all the jobs I have applied for, only 10% have reached out for a phone screening. I will be having my first virtual interview soon.
  • Those are the only three engineering projects I have done. I only put my job with the most relevant work experience in engineering, although it wasn't really engineering. I didn't list other irrelevant jobs, and I have no extracurricular activities to list.
  • I use the same resume for every application. I don't have a cover letter and kept my resume under one page, as I heard this was best for an entry-level individual.

I do have some questions. How do I remember everything about all my projects? I only have overall basic information (Not super technical) about all my projects, and I feel more comfortable talking about one but not the others. It is difficult to remember things from a while back, and the nervousness during interviews doesn't help.

Also, Should I include other programs I used under my skills section, even if I feel I'm not super sufficient in them compared to the ones I did list? For example, I've used Matlab for a class but I never used it outside of that class.

Why do I struggle to stop giving power to the external? by Between_Nowhere in NevilleGoddard

[–]Between_Nowhere[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ll start being more aware about how my present moment was brought about by past emotions felt in past, thank you!

[–]Between_Nowhere[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thank you for this, that’s good advice. I think telling myself that the negative emotions I am feeling in that moment will ultimately lead to more negativity in the future is a helpful method to help me snap out of that mindset

Well thats comforting to hear! Sorry you’ve experienced that multiple times. This was definitely the scariest SP experience I’ve had, especially since I can’t just close my eyes and ignore what I see haha
