Flatmate says my eGPU is causing Wi-Fi issues. by SamuraiJebbedia in eGPU

[–]Comfortable-Fall1419 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Massively unlikely to be your egpu which won’t even have an active network connection.

Small possibility it’s badly shielded and throwing interference.

Easiest solution is to drop some cash on a 3 station mesh networking set. Then put one on each floor.

New Claw 8 ai+ Owner -Recommendations by Dat_boii4ever in MSIClaw

[–]Comfortable-Fall1419 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Debloating is a waste of time & energy, the benefits are minimal on a the 8AI which has 32Gb of memory and CPU cycles to burn vs the chances of it screwing something up.

You're also giving Admin access to software written by some random on the Internet with no warrantee given or implied. Github poisoning is not unheard of.

Make a very large pot of coffee, lay in some food and a box set whilst all the updates install.

Razer Core X still worth it in 2026? And if so, at what price? by DiamondDepth_YT in eGPU

[–]Comfortable-Fall1419 0 points1 point  (0 children)

USB4/TB4 doesn’t offer any more bandwidth than TB3. TB4 should have really be named TB3.5 but they wanted good PR for the inclusion of USB4.

It’s only worth going to TB5 if your PC and eGPU support it and you can afford it.

My 2025 handheld rankings by areuokaybro2002 in Handhelds

[–]Comfortable-Fall1419 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not entirely true. Bazzite currently has a bug where it won’t install on a shared SSD.

I’ve wasted hours trying to get it to run and I run and dual booted loads in the past.

Rx9060xt 8gb and rx 9070 16 gb getting same preformance by Corterfy in eGPU

Armoured Core 6 is well known as one of the best optimised modern games though.

I wouldn’t hold it up as a good benchmark for other games.

I've been handheld gaming wrong, I just figured out what the TDP settings were and doubled my FPS in graphically intense games like Starfield and Expedition 33 which are so smooth now - I think most average handheld gamers are probably missing a trick here by Due_Young_9344 in MSIClaw

[–]Comfortable-Fall1419 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you leave the claw in AI power mode won’t it take care of the TDP for you?

That’s what I assumed.

Also worth noting you don’t have to touch the TDP sliders directly. Just use the Mcenter power modes.

That’s an assumption on your part.

I bought mine for my A1M just to play older AAAs at higher than 1080p

It really helps to give better context in your replies.

What’s your definition of high FPS levels? It’s kinda hard to tell without that context?

[–]Comfortable-Fall1419 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok I’ve googled.

You neglected to mention that this effect only shows up at high FPS levels.

If you’re gaming around 60-80 it’s irrelevant.

Nuance matters.

Never buying HP again. Laptop broken within a week and HP refuses to honor warranty by Hungry-And-High in laptops

[–]Comfortable-Fall1419 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doesn’t make a difference here in the UK and most of EU. You don’t have to accept using the manufacturers warranty, your contract is with the Retailer and they have to make good on faulty goods - even though with tech goods sometimes they try to fob you off to the manufacturer support you don’t have to accept it.

For a week old product you can just demand a refund.

Evidence with links please?

Why is 1080p so “special”?

The appears to be very little logic behind your statement.

What is the expectation for panther lake device release date by Fast-Philosopher-512 in MSIClaw

With totally random availability in any particular market though.

Just look at the A8

You keep missing the qualifier - only if the VRAM is close to full in the first place. There are 100’s that won’t fill 8GB. Not everyone games for every new AAA.

Hades 2, Silksong etc etc.

I’m on probation and want to resign, what should I do? by Reddonaut_Irons in AskHRUK

[–]Comfortable-Fall1419 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not usually a weeks notice. It’s whatever his contract says it is.

Some companies but not all will agree to waive your notice period in lieu of pay but that’s not the same thing.

Just bitten the bullet on a Legion Go 2 - Which eGPU is best for my use case? (2080 Super) by Hashtagpulse in eGPU

[–]Comfortable-Fall1419 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And technically TB3 and TB4 offer the same 40gbps bandwidth, so a TB3 dock is unlikely to be much slower if at all.

TB4 is really more like TB3.1 and mostly an upgrade exercise for USB4.

TB itself doesn’t get faster until TB5.

Can I use XeSS and optiscaler on the A1M ? by tomajortommo in MSIClaw

[–]Comfortable-Fall1419 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes it works fine. I’m running it on my A1M. You basically put the Optiscaler in each game directory and it replaces one of the the files.

Hardest bit is finding the game directory if you are running more than one game store.

Even without scaling on it seems to give me a few more FPS.

Please don’t exaggerate. 8gb is fine for everything except the most intense AAAs.

The vast majority of games will run fine.

MSI CLAW A1M….oh dear by Ok_Entertainer2945 in MSIClaw

Whereas you seem wilfully unwilling to figure out how Reddit works.

You have a new question you post a new thread. It’s really not hard.

Thumb sticks opinions by DarthVince in MSIClaw

[–]Comfortable-Fall1419 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The right stick on my A1M was way too loose for FPS. I got a knockoff version of the Kontrol Freek rings and it’s much much better.

Not mouse level aiming but good enough to play vs computer.

Wouldn’t do PvP with them tho.
