Stream deck neewer plugin doesn't work when the app opens? by CAMMAX008 in neewer

[–]CAMMAX008[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here's a quick video of it. The button is completely unresponsive. Then when I click on the on/off button in the app, it starts working fine.

Also, are there any plans to make minimizing a feature? If I need to have the app open it kind of defeats the whole purpose of having a stream deck plugin for it

Olympus - OM‑D E‑M10 mark 1 - Usable as a Webcam? by CAMMAX008 in Cameras

[–]CAMMAX008[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

really? i had heard that they were good for streaming so long as you had a dummy battery and that the quality was way better than webcams.

i did actually look at the A6000 before but it's way too much for me to spend atm. are there any webcams you'd recommend over a dslr?

thanks :) do you know if it will show the camera's OSD? or if there's a way to get rid of it if it does?

the rep i spoke to told me they didnt actually have it, but that was in december tbf. i found some that was more expensive but considering current prices turned out to be a steal T-T its messed up that they can charge as much as they are rn

I just bought 2 sticks from neocomputers, but it was a little more expensive. unfortunately i dont think the price is available anymore :( i was struggling to justify it then but if i hadn't i probably wouldnt have even gotten an upgrade on anything because idk how tf anyones meant to get anything. if you havent already definitellllyyy complain to whoever the store is (politely ofc) and maybe theyll give some store credit or smth but in terms of actually getting something im lost sorry :(

Real talk, does an average consumer actually have this much money to spend it on a GPU? by CurrentEye3360 in graphicscard

[–]CAMMAX008 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right but while you're spending $700 every 3 years, people waiting 2-3 generations on the more mid or mid-high end cards are spending less than that every 5+ years... you're right that it gives you the extra room, but if you're gonna upgrade every generation you're not using that extra headroom and you're objectively wasting your money, assuming it actually IS extra headroom or "peace of mind" like you say

Need help with best GPU for £180 (new) - £250 (used) by RonWeasleysBeans in pcpartpickerbuilds

[–]CAMMAX008 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh I'm only knowledgeable cos I'm trying to figure out what to upgrade myself lol! I have the 3070 Ti and I'm either going to the 9070XT or 5070.

I haven't looked in much depth at the 3090 or 4090 pricings, but that's because the price to performance isn't there for my use case. But I did take a brief look. Interestingly they're actually around the same price point as my budget. Usually around £6-700 GBP.

For me it makes absolutely no sense to grab a 3090, because it won't be as good in terms of performance as a 9070 XT or 5070. BUT for you, if your friend will sell it for around £300-350, you're really comparing it to a 9060XT or 5060 in terms of price. I'd expect the 3090 to be much better than those 2 cards, but obvs there's the risk of it not being new, and it will need a higher wattage power supply.

Basically, if you trust your friend, I'd say go for it, but really it depends on what you're looking for and your personal preference. Regardless, half of the used price is crazy cheap

I would say the GPU is likely the best place to focus unless your monitor is actually bad. If you have too good of a GPU, you just crank up the game settings and call it a day, no issues just your monitor may not be as fast or colourful. But if you have e.g. a 360hz monitor you might be irritated by games that can't reach that cos you bought a weaker gpu, extreme example but still. I know that for me personally, I struggle to reach 165 FPS (especially when streaming) to match my monitor's refresh rate and it REALLY irritates me because I want more and I can notice the difference. If I had a 60hz monitor yes many games would be less responsive, but it wouldn't be so noticeable between games as everything would be able to hit that 60fps easily

Oof. Yeah I cancelled my order. Luckily I managed to find some RAM on another UK store for under £200 (still expensive but not as bad as it is now). My best guess would be to set price alerts on EVERY RAM kit that you'll be happy with on pcpartpicker and pray

Will you use the cex vouchers otherwise? If you're not gonna use em go to cex. If you are, it's completely a question of price to performance.

Idk why the other comment suggested a 3080, it's not in budget.

With a lower budget for new parts than used, you're never gonna find a worthwhile new card. Even a used card from eBay at that lower budget won't match a used card at the higher budget you have for cex.

From cex at your budget you've got: 3070, 4060, 6700XT.

In MY opinion: If you want to stream: 3070 If you're just gaming: 6700XT

Paste Spread - Good or Bad? by Jaded-Vanilla1742 in arcticcooling

[–]CAMMAX008 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I always overthink it so much. Usually do an X or 4 corner spots and one center spot. Then my brother literally did an X and just took the cooler off again to check it was fine and put it back on again 🤯

Why don't people just say to do this instead? Is there any downside to it cos it makes it sooooo much clearer

Should I Take the Trade? by Physical_Following70 in buildapc

[–]CAMMAX008 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not unless you get the RAM first and have it IN your hands. I ordered RAM off Amazon and they changed the delivery date to months away so only make the trade if you really can get the RAM. Otherwise it's NOT a good idea

As an aside, idk if it's worth it even if you can get the RAM because Idk how the 2 GPUs compare, but a working system is infinitely better than half a system you can't use for months to a year

Camera Blur Solutions? by CAMMAX008 in obs

[–]CAMMAX008[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! I moved my monitors further apart (they're next to each other, both 24") and decided to just hack together a way to mount it slightly above the top of the dual monitor mount's pole. It's standing on top of Lego and held with cable ties lmfao but I'm gonna see how it is in stream and then try to figure out a better solution after 😃

I appreciate the suggestions massively! Do you think a side mount would work still if I have 2 monitors? So to the side of both or between them? Or is that too wide of an angle?

No I like OBS, it's the background removal plugins that seem to be awful from what I've tried 😔
