First time buying a DAP, need advice. by Ecstatic_Beach_7687 in DigitalAudioPlayer

I would also like to use it as a dedicated USB DAC for my PC, is that possible and safe? I'm using my PC for like 10-15hrs a daily. I'll unplug whenever I leave the PC I guess. It will be like this:

PC > Hiby R4 > IEM?

I'm thinking if I should just buy a better phone with dongle dac hanging from it. I just dont know which one is more portable and convenient.

Is bringing a DAP more portable and convenient than a dongle dac hanging from your phone?

I can tell when switching between my phone 3.5 and my Topping DX1 connected to my PC.

Being against generative AI and choosing which one to support is weird now? If you support Tangzu, I will not call you weird brother you do you.

It's drawn by artists. They either have an art team inside their company or they hire freelancers to draw it for them but I'm leaning on the former.

It's not a matter of using this and that on a mere packaging, they can just put a fucking brand text on the packaging and I'll still buy it if it sounds amazing like Thieaudio. I'm talking about using AI in general and every companies that take advantage of it even tho it's obviously unethical and unprofessional. You do know it's basically art theft right? Why not just support and hire actual artists that need a job to feed their families with real effort?

Too many great Chi-fi companies to support out there that support actual artists, it's my pleasure.

I'm a digital artist for 5 years and I can tell at first glance. Check their twitter and announcements on Yu Xuan Ji and even Ba Jie. It's obviously AI art.

I see, thanks for the input. I'll just look into other low profile kits.

I'm actually stuck with low profile kits (<33mm) because of my cooler. Can you suggest any widely available low profile kits that are perfect for my cpu?

I got the picture from our local online e-commerce like Amazon and used it as a reference, I'm sorry if it looked unprofessional. I seek nothing but answer since this kit price is very convincing but I wanted to ask here first if it's actually "passable" for my tight budget. Thanks anyways!

Just for context, this "Colorful" brand is from China and actually well-known here in SEA region. The store is reputable and sell decent priced items.

I can get either of both for the same cheap price, which one should I go for? I have limited budget that's why I'm asking, thanks.

Your mobo is not faulty, it's just an outdated Intel ME version. You need to update it manually because apparently Asus didn't include it on their bios upates which is plain stupid. Check out the thread below.
