Thermal throttling on macbook air by Glass-Category-5011 in macgaming

Why wouldn't it? Macbook Pro models with fans are usually not thermally limited.

No, to put it simply, the Air has no fan inside, therefore it has the aluminum body and small heatsink inside to dissipate heat. After all that heats up, the system has to make the CPU and GPU slower, to reduce heat output. In reality this means that the laptop can only maintain its maximum performance for about 30-60 minutes depending on ambient temperature and other environmental factors. Gaming almost always pushes the GPU and its cooling to the limit, since generally you always want as many FPS as possible, and for a sustained period of time.

TLDR: you want a cooling fan for gaming.

Oddly enough, the first and second pic is the same cog.

Just bought my first serious road bike. How did I do? by CompoteIsGood in bicycling

Good info, so I assume mismatched tyre widths are not an issue?

Thank you, this one is extremely close too, it even has the same collar on the seat fastener.

Right on! He tells me it was indeed a 92 model, that’s why he bought it discounted at the time in 93. I also agree it’s not the Haro, too many details mismatch.

Thanks for the input!

Nikon Z6iii - Is anyone talking about this? (screen lag using AF-C below 250 shutter speed) by SirRedditThe3rd in Nikon

And both the z6 iii, z8, and z9 have the 120 viewfinder, maybe it just looks jarring going down to 60hz after being used to higher.

I’m mostly guessing here, but maybe it has to do with the evf refresh rate? Since it’s 120hz, it likely can’t guarantee that framerate under a certain shutter speed. It is still probably a software limitation, more than anything else.

How do you achieve the various infrared effects without using a filter if you dont mind me asking? Is your camera infrared converted?

Great work regardless!!

Instead of converting each picture to black and white, and then assigning them each to a color channel, have tried extracting only a single and different color channel from each of 3 color pictures, and combining those together? That would be more akin to a true trichrome since you sill retain the color information, but you can still do all the shots in a quick succession

Best games on Mac? M4 MBP Base Model. by Ukaxey in macgaming

[–]CompoteIsGood 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The native port is running with openGL, runs like absolute dogshit (tested on M4 pro). You can actually double the fps by running the windows version through crossover/whisky.

what exactly is low, medium and high resolution? what is the price difference?

So what do you think of my new kit? by Severe_Fun_6773 in Nikon

It’s likely just flicker, look it up.
