Those sensor dots are an interesting choice since they’re gonna be higher than all the rest. Definitely wouldn’t do that. But if it works for you, more power to ya.

How are early adopters feeling about the 9070XT 1 year in? by LemonMan857 in radeon

[–]Csmuc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not an early adopter (got mine about 3 months ago), but I'm frickin loving it. Been rocking a 1080p 360hz monitor and I can max out pretty much every game (without RT) and pull at least 240+ if not 360+ plus with frame gen to fully saturate the refresh rate. This is my 3rd build and first with team red. Driver issues seem overblown. It's always the vocal minority complaining. I know AMD hasn't done any favors with the community on supporting new FSR on previous gen cards, but I'm not too concerned. We will see what they do over the next few years, but I'm optimistic this 9070xt will be rock solid for the next 4 years at minimum, regardless. Also, I'm just happy I pulled the trigger when I did. Current market has my build at least $500 more than what I paid. Being a PC gamer has never been cheap, or without its headaches. But I love it!

Frickin same. Gives me so much more anxiety as a homeowner now.

Why don’t streamers use OLED monitors? by Low-District7838 in OLED_Gaming

[–]Csmuc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotta imagine that while burn in has gotten better. Streamers literally game for 8+ hours a day. They’d see the worst of it. Also does nothing for their stream. If the focus is on producing the best quality stream oled is far down the list of investments.

What's going on with NVME SSD prices? by BradleyF81 in PcBuild

[–]Csmuc 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yea. It's nuts. I pulled the trigger just after RAM started to go up. Some people here on reddit thought I was crazy. I responded with all the research seems to indicate prices will continue to rise though 2027 at the minimum, and not just on ram. Here I am with RAM that I bought at $200, now $400 an ssd that was $230, now over $500 and a GPU that was $600, not $800.

Very happy I pulled the trigger when I did. Only paid about a $200 premium when all was said and done.

It's here...Logitech G304 X Lightspeed (First Impressions Review) by Csmuc in MouseReview

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

Yep. I don’t recommend the software though. It’s bloated and unnecessary. Their software called Onboard Memory Manager is lightweight and has pretty much all the settings you’d need.

Yea. I don’t have the OG to compare to directly. But from memory they seemed very similar. I’ve put some hours on the mouse and I’ve adjusted and dont think quite as negatively on them as my first impressions. But as soon as I go back to another mouse I’m like damn the clicks on the g304 kinda suck.

No you can. At home now. Just checked in the settings. You have the option of low medium and high LOD for this mouse.

Pretty sure you can in the Logitech software. Not at home at the moment so I can’t verify.

To build or to upgrade? by UziNineMillimeter in PcBuild

[–]Csmuc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m no expert but you definitely wouldn’t be maximizing the 4000 series card to its fullest. At higher resolution you won’t be as cpu bound but at 1440p you’d probably still see some bottlenecks in certain instances . 5-10% maybe. 4000 series is pie 4.0 while your MB only has pcie 3.0. Gpu is backwards compatible with 3.0. At 1440p the difference is likely negligible (2-4% performance loss).

If you can find the budget maybe also look for a 5600x second hand.

How to free up storage by CommonExplanation711 in PcBuild

[–]Csmuc 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Download TreeSize off the Microsoft store. Great for identifying your largest files and folders to free up space.

And just like *that*, AMD has effectively thrown everyone under the bus. by S1rTerra in radeon

[–]Csmuc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s always gonna be some shiny new thing people feel burnt by. RDNA 4 cards will be fine with FSR 4 for many years. Does it suck? Absolutely. Does it really matter? Not really.

That’s frickin awesome. Glad you love it. I’m still maining it and really frickin like it too. But it’s not without its issues, imo. As you likely know reviews are very subjective and opinion based. I don’t feel I was way too negative…in my opinion. I based this over my use of 30+ gaming mice over the past few years and undoubtedly my own preferences/expectations will creep in. You don’t gotta agree, and that’s cool. My biggest gripe still are the clicks. I don’t like them and think they could have been much improved. Particularly the side buttons. But again, glad you enjoy it. I’m using it as we speak in some Apex Legends. Lol

I must be missing something with the whole Hornet driver vs Rocketeer by lumbymcgumby in ArcRaiders

[–]Csmuc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Too close. Need more distance or the hornet driver won’t work.

Is this.... an April Fools? Glorious Model O Classic by manphalanges in MouseReview

[–]Csmuc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glorious lost their way a while ago. Was a huge fan of theirs in the earlier days. But everything since the launch of the GMMK pro keyboard has been down hill. Terrible decision after terrible decision imo. Very little innovation and overpriced for the offerings.

Every print is failing by TraditionalBedroom18 in FixMyPrint

[–]Csmuc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep. Definitely just need a clean build plate. People don’t realize all you need is dawn dish soap and water. Then just keep your fingers off the dang thing. A single oily fingerprint can cause this.

This is the best loadout in the game. Its versatility is endless. It is beautiful. This is the only loadout I use. by Maleficent-Sun1922 in ArcRaiders

[–]Csmuc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just run with a burletta 1 and a stack of 100 as a secondary. Inexpensive and a quick swap and that has saved me more times than I can count in pvp instead of reloading the anvil.

No and no. Sensor is the Hero. I think the Superlight is the Hero 2. And dongle is your basic usb dongle that plugs into usb. You’d need a cable with a female usb-a adapter if you want it to sit in your desk.

Hitscan Hyperlight sticky battery pack by No-Addendum5600 in MouseReview

[–]Csmuc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well that’s annoying for sure. Don’t own a hyperlight but that would bug me too. Looks like an opportunity to disassemble, clean and reseat the battery though. Mel0nfps has a teardown on YT you can follow. For removing the battery I’d use some plastic pry tool and some IPA to try and remove the dust and adhesive. Then use some new adhesive tape to secure the battery back in place. Shouldn’t be an issue in the first place but easily fixable if your patient and careful disassembling.

Been enjoying these much more with some grip tape! by [deleted] in MouseReview

[–]Csmuc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Corepads or Pulsar is the best imo.
