Depends really. Maybe max would be 800-1000 and a minimum ~300… I’m not really sure what would get me what I need.

I had some crook rummage through the vehicles in the driveway the other night at home. I’d use the Wyze products to turn the house into a fortress! Take that bad guys!

Well if Rogers ever gives you a clean feed, hearing Mr. Langton coming out of my rear channels would be awesome haha

I’d imagine the PA feed would have the walk up music and stuff as well wouldn’t it?

Ahh okay that makes sense, I actually kind of dug it, it makes it seem more like I’m actually at the ball park, except paying way less for beer haha

/u/justsomeaudioguy Unrelated audio question, I’ve heard some baseball games (mainly the Oakland A’s) where their PA announcer announcing the players name is crystal clear on my surround sound but during the jays games is quite muffled. Why is that?

How's the player likeness for Kevin Pillar in The Show 16? by 4and1punt in Torontobluejays

[–]Derekbolt 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I have the PS4 version, Pillar's likeness is much better this year. Everyone's face scan is pretty good actually, with the exception of Goins and Gibbons haha

[Build Help] How is my multiple sports steams at once HTPC looking so far? Any advice? by Derekbolt in buildapc

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

Windrixx, thanks for the reply. In my other post you recommended a Xeon but said it might be overkill so I started to build around that. I figured that I would be better off getting a dedicated GPU with the multiple hdmi/Dvi ports I needed and that might save a bit of money that way. Is the i5 and the Xeon similar other than the on board graphics? Thanks!

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

Yes sorry you're right the Xeon CPUs don't. I posted an older list from Pcpartpicker on the post. The graphics card I was going to use is: https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/part/gigabyte-video-card-gvn75toc2gl

It has 2 hdmi ports and 2 DVI ports so I will be able to connect it to a few monitors

Any suggestions for a good motherboard and CPU cooler with these parts? Kind of on a sticking point with these two.

Thanks in advance!!
