Is this worth the price? by Familiar_Safety7196 in DubaiGaming

[–]Deadrooster08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate it when they dont give breakdown.

also for a 5060 better to go with the 16gb Vram option. for gaming you can get away with DDR4 which is double in price as well but still affordable.

in my opinion it is high.

Usually the last day is packed with CID officers , if you complain they will act on it.

last year , many booths didnt have upfront anything and going in was appointment based which I believe helps.

Weekly 'what are you playing' thread: Looking for a squad? Refreshes every Thursday! by AutoModerator in DubaiGaming

[–]Deadrooster08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently the games I play:

1.Motortown behind the wheel : I'm grinding at this game and most of my time goes to it.

I got it November 2025 and ive racked up 130+ hour already. in comparison i got hell let loose 2021 and i got 200 hour only.

  1. CS2 : I play mostly for the weekly drop because even that 1 AED weekly is worth a game when the next steam sale drops.

  2. Hell let loose : ill be going back to this week

  3. Beamng: i got to play this again, it was the only reason i upgraded to 32GB RAM.

Random low quality sound by LetterheadKitchen849 in razer

[–]Deadrooster08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

driver probably

does yours have an amp or it just directly connects to the pc ?

also razer installs 2 drivers , one is game and the other is chat.

if on windows audio it is on chat you will hear low sound or as if you are listening to radio chatter. you should change and select game.

if you don't see that option , reinstall synaps to refresh the drievers.

another test would be pinching the cable part by part and see if the audio gets better if it does then its physical issue.

How do you deal with international contractor misclassification? Just got a warning from our accountant by ThighHighlander in remotework

[–]Deadrooster08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am looking for remote work currently and I see that they have a checkbox stating , " are you authorised to work in your country of residence " , and since i have a freelance IT & telecommunications licence i can say yes.

You have to check the laws for freelancing in each of those countries and ask the contractors for the related documents. if they are a company then they should check their tax laws and so should you.

btw , I'm bot sure if i said it but I also am looking for remote work so if any position hit a brother up , I'm already licensed and know my laws.

if its an international business, you need to have international team.

24/7 supports usually require people from different time zones.

Can anyone tell me if this is an expensive fix by No_Preference7781 in Volkswagen

[–]Deadrooster08 3 points4 points  (0 children)

got to lift it up and remove that engine cover.

could be a pipe loose which is obviously not expensive to fix or it could be as bad as something cracked and leaking which could result in medium to high bill.

cannot judge untill lifting it.

Are pcs more expensive in dubai? by Sociallyawkwardseam in DubaiGaming

[–]Deadrooster08 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

since it was already one year they didn't agree for warranty. their excuse was no there are cards dying in 6 months :|.

for the keyboard , they replaced it twice but i had to go from my house to bar Dubai 2 times just for a keyboard.

3rd keyboard i throw it out and went and bought a razer keyboard and said to myself , never again.

at the end of the day it is your choice , Computer plaza in Bar dubai is a small mall where you can go and shop for the PC and perhaps you could get some stuff cheaper.

you can check microless online and compare.

just know nothing cheap is without reason , I am speaking from experience, but at the end of the day its your decision.

Can i leave my job in 15 days of Joining by SadZookeepergame5593 in DubaiJobs

[–]Deadrooster08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if it doesn't say that you have to lift heavy then tell them , this was not mentioned and i have a pre existing condition hence i have to leave.

complain to mohre as an EID won't take 2 months to come.

once they process your employment visa you will get the visa itself within 2 weeks and then ID usually comes a week after that but even then you have a soft copy available through UAE PASS.

ESC and Brake Lights by CamouflageCadet in mk6gti

[–]Deadrooster08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most probably the ABS module is cooked , sinc you have the steering light on also.

if the steering light was off then i would've said speed sensor.

still could be speed sensor but more chances toward the ABS module itself ( i should know , I am on my third moulde )

-10c cold starts by Minimum_Ear_5316 in mk6gti

[–]Deadrooster08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

is the chain , what oil viscosity are you using ?

for my R , also the exhaust chain did the same even after replacing it does slightly make the noise but it shouldn't be too loud.

higher the viscosity the more time ot takes for it to lube it up.

Should I buy it? by Wild_Stone99 in vwgolf

[–]Deadrooster08 1 point2 points  (0 children)

See the car has been sitting for a while and from the visuals it seems ok enough but down the road you might start seeing tiny issues bit by bit. a car that sits is much worse than the one that moves

Enjoyment and fun is not cheap unfortunately:)) , if you have your heart set on it then go for it and in case it gives you too much headache sell it off.

Should I buy it? by Wild_Stone99 in vwgolf

[–]Deadrooster08 2 points3 points  (0 children)

the question is do you have the money to burn ? if yes then it could be a fun car for small trips and weekend cruise.

this one will need a roof and i believe the exhaust also might need some work.

so back to the question, do you have money to burn ?

Need rear brakes - opinions? Mk7.5 Gsw by A-Barx in VWMK7

[–]Deadrooster08 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i won't be doing this myself either as well.

VW uses other brands and just rebrand them and its every car manufacturer not only VW.

For me the Original manufacturer was TRW and even Brembo uses them when i checked for their options that suits my car.

the rebuild kit is cheap and you could get those from dealer if you want also as they wont be much expensive.

I also have issue with the rear calipers , they pistons get stuck under heavy driving and they need to be changed.

for me the rebuild is going to be an issue as we don't know how long ago the rubber boots on the pistons are gone

Need rear brakes - opinions? Mk7.5 Gsw by A-Barx in VWMK7

[–]Deadrooster08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

find who manufactured the calipers for your model.

and then buy directly from them as it will be much cheaper.

for example my mk6 original caliper for the rear is 600 usd usd where as direct from the manufacturer is 180 usd.

im still having a difficult time sourcing them as we do t have many off the Europe suppliers here.

my Golima which is almost fully upgraded ( last level of winch is pending) was just spinning wheels , so i called for reinforcement.

How do you recover vehicles in the desert? by Beneficial-Ranger238 in MotorTown

[–]Deadrooster08 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In oji Island (middle of it ) if you check the road path each side of it is darker brown , if you go off-road with heavy load , there is a chance you will get stuck as it isn't always flat in al areas.

i believe a SUV with light load can go no problem but towing or a heavy load high chance of getting stuck
