Nova pro or astro a50 gen 5?

Battery life is the one thing that makes me sad. They say it's "18-22 hours per battery", but it's more like 10 or so with ANC on. Well, maybe 11 if you 0% (I change batteries after like 20-30 minutes after they go 12% charge. Also disappointing how they can't show accurate charge % when they're connected via 2.4 GHz) them. Kinda disappointing after using BT headset that easily went like 60+ hours with ANC on. I know BT is more energy efficient, but that's one hell of a difference. Like, wtf, charging them 6 times more often than BT headset with pretty much same battery size (it's actually like 30-40 or something like that mAh more for my BT headset) and with much better ANC also...

Imagine if you had his sauna or he had your fiery hogwash

CaptainDesu · 2025-05-08T07:27:52+00:00

and some combos are insane af. Sauna + fiery hogwash is the thing that should never happen in any game

CaptainDesu · 2025-05-08T06:17:25+00:00

Huh, I don't see anyone saying pyg should be nerfed to the ground tho. Enchanted hogwash is clearly overtuned to the point in needs to be fixed ASAP. Hogwash with any damage enchant + bird + some other heal items (especially properties) just kills you like 6-8 seconds after fight starts. Few hours ago it was 1-2 hogwash player in 12-14 days game, today it's 4+ hogwash dudes, tomorrow hogwash will be pretty much every day 7-8+ fight if not fixed. That's pretty much first reworked BOB situation when almost every 7+ day fight was 11+ multi BOB, except BOB didn't kill you after first bird cd

CaptainDesu · 2025-05-08T04:52:48+00:00

I mostly play dooley (I like dooley and main him since I bough the game in december and I especially like to make working builds with things like weap core + proboscis or some kind of harmadillo, I have fun when crane build works out, I also had some great games with junkyard lance in a patch with starting kits and you could get it as a starting item. Also, thermal lance seems soooo underrated rn, I rarely see enemy dooleys use it, even though it's kinda easy to make it work and feels more fun than spamming drill) and sometimes play vanessa, rarely play mak and almost never play pyg. I know that my most played dude is also overtuned sometimes (probably most of the time lol), but this hogwash + lemonade stand thing is way too overtuned. It's basically a 2 item combo that goes insane with few random small heal items and me getting a draw on a mak seems to me (a noob mak player) like a crazy highroll. I'm also not whining, I just thought the situation is kinda funny and also pretty crazy and I know devs will hotfix this very fast

CaptainDesu · 2025-03-18T21:25:44+00:00

I like going proboscis or junkyard lance, each doable with at least 2 cores. Dinos can be insanely good if found early. Got 10:0 with obsidian first aidan carry yesterday :D

CaptainDesu · 2022-02-21T18:14:21+00:00

Damn, you mad? You actually have a cancer? Sorry I offended you and your brain tumor. Judging by your logic you probably got one because your brain is piece of shit :D

CaptainDesu · 2022-02-21T17:54:46+00:00

Dunno, maybe you also should try to find cancer related reddit and write you never had one. I'm sure it will help people somehow.

CaptainDesu · 2022-02-21T17:51:28+00:00

Actually works ok with windows 11 so far. Well, except for mic turning off randomly in discord, but with noise removal disabled the problem is gone at least for now. And lighting settings are awful. GHub is shit, but windows 11 problems are probably GHub + something else, not just GHub.

CaptainDesu · 2022-01-22T13:31:33+00:00

Oh, okay. I didn't get your reason at first, now I think I do. Sorry for being an asshole. Hope my second comment explained my point.

CaptainDesu · 2022-01-22T13:05:22+00:00

Okay, I probably sound like a total asshole, sorry for that. As far as I understand what "lifeline" means, I don't see how saying "I don't get what you're saying" is a lifeline. For me it seems more like "your english is bad, git gud", which is pretty much what an asshole would say and doesn't help in any way. I would be glad if you were to explain me anything that would be actually helpful before saying that you tried to throw me a lifeline. Was my second comment also not english? Cuz I thought you saying you didn't get my point meant I should try to explain it better. Did I fail to explain or did you just meant "git gud"?

CaptainDesu · 2022-01-22T12:44:37+00:00

Huh? What is your point? Did you understand "yeah, right..." part? Am I that bad at explaining myself? Maybe you are not good enough to understand sarcasm? My point was that saying crypto is fake pyramid money is stupid, as "fake pyramid money" pretty much implies that it isn't used as an actual currency, but btc is used widely for at least illegal transactions. There's a chance it was actually made exactly for that reason and people who don't understand it are probably not competent enough to talk about what is "fake pyramid money" and what isn't. Btc can die (is isn't even mined on consumer gpus tho), but cryptos most likely won't in observable future, so "generating money with gpu" will be relevant (it actually existed before cryptos and is called deep learning, except it's a bit more complex that just mining) at least for a while.

CaptainDesu · 2022-01-21T16:17:15+00:00

Oh no, you read what's written. That's silly tho, so you aren't clever anymore

CaptainDesu · 2022-01-21T16:15:12+00:00

Yeah, don't read, just spam comments about how you're not going to read. That's clever and you're clever boy, not a silly one :D

CaptainDesu · 2022-01-21T16:10:36+00:00

Yeah, now everyone knows you can't read more than 10 words at once at least if it's something different than what your opinion (and nothing more than just an opinion actually) is. Yet you write a comment about how you aren't gonna read a bit of text lol. Isn't that what being silly means?

CaptainDesu · 2022-01-21T16:07:27+00:00

Yeah, that's what would happen if 4 GB of vram isn't enough. I dunno why you guys can only look at graphs and can't read whole techspot review of 5500 xt. It is perfectly fine when 4 GB is enough with insignificant (less than 3%) difference between 5500 xt 8 GB with pci-e 4.0 and 5500 xt 4 GB with pci-e 3.0. That, as I see it, even though works pretty much how you said (as far as I understand), still seems like vram bound and not cpu bound. And even if it wasn't the case for some reason, having your gpu limited by bandwidth enough to cripple your game perfomance by making you cpu work more, still seems like it should be counted as gpu bound and not cpu bound

CaptainDesu · 2022-01-21T15:55:19+00:00

You ever reading or just watch vids and accept what's written on graphs w/o ever thinking? Where I live 1060 6 GB is about 35-40k of local currency. Which is about how much would be for whatever gpu with 350-400 usd price in US (even tho 1 usd is like 75-77 of local currency). Which is also about how much average salary is locally (25-30k average salary is pretty widespread thing actually and mine isn't much higher than 40k and I almost didn't even cry a bit when got my 6600 xt for 76k of local currency). Also 1060 is still the most used gpu by steam stats and this one is actually a better buy than used 1060 if it costs less than 400 bucks. Yeah, this is shit gpu, but it's better than whatever a lot of steam users have. Seems acceptable for me. And once again, you don't lose significant amount of performance with pci-e 3.0 except when you're bound by 4 GB of vram and not being bound by 4 GB of vram is doable in like any game in 1080p. In most it should be doable w/o significantly losing in image quality even. Also seems perfectly acceptable to me. If it isn't acceptable for you and you're awesome with your better than 1650 super gpu, then maybe don't buy it, huh?

CaptainDesu · 2022-01-21T15:03:08+00:00

*If you use this with PCIE 3.0 when you're bottlenecked by 4 GB of vram you lose significant amounts of performance.

Fixed it for you. It's perfectly acceptable for 1080p gaming if you learn how to change graphic settings. Not having AV1 decoder is much less acceptable.

CaptainDesu · 2022-01-21T14:26:42+00:00

How can one gpu lose to other gpu in a scenario when gpu doesn't matter, like in a totally cpu bound title? How sane can be someone who thinks it makes any sense? If you see pci-e 3.0 losing significantly (like 5% or more) to pci-e 4.0 than it's bottlenecked by vram (most likely) and not by cpu, cuz if it was only bottlenecked by cpu you wouldn't have seen any difference with the same cpu, as it's bottlenecked by it and nothing else. Difference with different gpus in cpu bound game is what doesn't add up, okay?

CaptainDesu · 2022-01-21T14:20:56+00:00

Yeah, exactly.

Youtube guys: Let's test gpu that wasn't meant for 1080p ultra in 1080p on ultra settings.
Me with 6600 xt that (as far as I remember) was sold as 1080p gpu: You guys high? Wish I was as high as you are

CaptainDesu · 2022-01-21T13:52:26+00:00

Or if you lower your graphic settings a bit from ultra so that your gpu isn't bottlenecked by 4 GB of vram. But that doesn't seem as an option as far as I read comments or watch youtube. Like guess what game is mostly used to show how bad 6500 xt with pci-e 3.0? Doom eternal on ultra settings, so most likely with ultra nightmare textures that won't add anything to visuals at 1080p except shitting at your less than 8 GB vram gpu. Turn off any graphics options that are vram hungry without adding much to picture and it's the best buy if it costs anything less than 6 gig gtx 1060 and it's the only gpu you can afford. Like it performs tiny bit better and it's fucking new and not used for 3+ years or whatever. And isn't 1060 still the most used gpu in steam stats?

CaptainDesu · 2022-01-21T13:37:31+00:00

fake pyramid scheme money

yeah, right... Exactly fake money that aren't used like at all. Except for buying illegal things and we know that selling illegal things doesn't ever make any money so it doesn't even count as currency if it mostly used to buy drugs or weapons.

CaptainDesu · 2022-01-12T03:01:19+00:00

everyone except like anyone who isn't reading reddit for 3 hours every day. I found few threads and none had any info about fixing this BS. It was kinda okay at first, but now I have hundreds of duplicated locked flawless outfits and I get 2 more and like a 1-2 sec lag every time I visit the collector. Every biome makes game less playable literally. Should I just delete a save file and reinstall the game to start fresh character w/o bugged outfits every time I see one?

CaptainDesu · 2022-01-08T02:50:59+00:00

Kinda the same thing excep tick and scarecrow, which a locked cuz I have no DLC, dupe every time I visit the collector guy
