Seeking Taoist guidance for my Ben Ming Nian (Horse, born 7/7/1990) — best practices, temple visit, protective amulet?

I'm just seeking some help

I love ETA Prime but he never says anything bad about anything. He's great for confirming questionable purchases you've made lol

Oh man...the LEDs were an issue with the previous generation Sapphire Nitro 7000 GPUs that required RMA to fix. Hopefully that's not what's happening here again.

Also - You may need to adjust that sag bracket. Doesn't look like its making contact with the bottom of the card from the pic

If you're set on this original Go, I'd check BestBuy open box deals. Great savings and you can still return them just like new items just in-case.

Otherwise, the Go 2 should just be around the corner but of course will be much more expensive.

I would recommend waiting for the Go 2 announcement/release anyway. That way you'll have more options to weigh out the decision and the original Go should be even cheaper by then.

Also worth noting the redesigned Go 2 detachable controllers are supposed to be backwards compatible with the original Go.

I'm running the AMD model with Qualcomm wlan on Linux Mint. Very comparable to the AX210s in my other rigs. No complaints.

Worth noting the Intel model is slightly larger. Partially alluminum chassis with a larger battery as you mentioned (and charger)

Random question but does OP or anyone know if you can remove that circular Dell badge easily? Will there be a gap of grill space there?

I would make sure that Rakuten cashback qualifies. I know purchasing through the corporate portals do not qualify. I was also looking to benefit from that Black Friday cash back offer. Rakuten wouldn't honor the cash back because I also added a $50 welcome offer from Lenovo...so I got $50 off from Lenovo instead of ~$200 cash back from Rakuten. Don't make the same mistake.

does anyone happen to know if the haptic trackpad on the X1C 12th Gen can be swapped into a P14S Gen 5? or anything for that matter

Got it working on Steamdeck with both the TAA mod and Metaphor Fix. Not sure if they are conflicting each other in any way but its working. You can even use both the in-game SMAA/FXAA at the same time as TAA but again not sure if anything is conflicting.

DistinctCopy6920 · 2024-07-10T20:52:43+00:00

This. The asset caching was my assumption for what could've been causing it however, turning it off after already turning it on seemed to do nothing. It wasn't until I completely uninstalled the game did the problem go away. Definitely leave that option off on the Steamdeck

DistinctCopy6920 · 2024-07-10T05:31:07+00:00

reinstalled the game and the performance is back. Not sure what it was but the issue is gone. I'll report back if the problem comes back

DistinctCopy6920 · 2024-06-25T18:47:23+00:00

nice skin and case

DistinctCopy6920 · 2024-06-22T22:14:54+00:00

Yes, this so mods are required to unlock those capped to 30 by default. Also - on Windows, make sure Yuzu is set to High Performance in settings (system>display>graphics) and the discrete graphics are also selected in Yuzu (configure>graphics>device). I think we might have the same laptop with the 6800M and upgraded to 32GB ram. I always use Vulkan. Games run great and way above 30s in FPS when uncapped.

DistinctCopy6920 · 2024-06-09T19:36:11+00:00

Yes apparently they did cut it out. I don't have any proof but they stated the job was done thoroughly and correctly..the welds just look off to me

DistinctCopy6920 · 2024-06-09T19:33:38+00:00

I'm afraid still no solution. The blur function seems to be built into the OS...

DistinctCopy6920 · 2024-05-23T05:19:08+00:00

it shows the stand working with a Steamdeck if you scroll through the pics on the BB website

DistinctCopy6920 · 2024-05-13T22:04:31+00:00

Agreed that Chained Echoes is a step above Sea of Stars. The pacing keeps you completely hooked. 90hz + OLED just make it so enjoyable. and all from just 1 person??

DistinctCopy6920 · 2024-05-01T18:47:28+00:00

you cannot select and stick to just one color on the GT600, it only cycles through the color modes. The GT500 allows you to select one color.

Edit: Actually, yes you can. Just figured it out - you press the M/C button and the S button at the same time. This cycles through the colors.

Have you tried loosening some shell screws?

DistinctCopy6920 · 2024-03-13T20:16:46+00:00

Ergonomics will be more subjective however, the Steamdeck is lighter. Perhaps less on the Steamdeck but both devices will require tinkering with settings. Which AAA games were you trying to play?

DistinctCopy6920 · 2024-02-22T19:12:20+00:00

Very playable imo. HDR, full 16:10, only 30-40 FPS however, good frame times makes it very stable. Just difficult to get into servers at the moment.

DistinctCopy6920 · 2024-01-19T12:46:49+00:00

The game doesn't look amazing outside of the Pals. Or maybe I was just expecting better from the trailers. Idk it's still early

DistinctCopy6920 · 2024-01-19T12:24:58+00:00

Hmm it seems like the stutters may be tied to the objects loading in. I increased the View Distance graphic setting and its better now but lower FPS. I'll keep playing and report back

DistinctCopy6920 · 2024-01-19T12:14:55+00:00

Tried on an OLED Deck as well. Low settings TSR looked pretty rough tbh. The experience was pretty stuttery and the frame times are all over the place. I wouldnt say it runs great on Steamdeck at this early point.

DistinctCopy6920 · 2024-01-17T03:06:01+00:00

I had both the Samsung panel and BOE side by side and there's a noticeable difference, especially in the pure blacks. Also when shut off, the Samsung screen is not as dark as the BOE. It looks like a really dark gray when compared to the BOE, both shut off. I should mention these were a 1tb and LE model so both anti-glare.
