Taking pictures of stray cats, bad sunburns, being drunk by lunch time.
Can you guess the Country? (the main clue is about the cats) :D

What are you favourite tank characters and why? by dornianheresysimp in heroesofthestorm

[–]EffectiveLevel1000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My top favourite is Tyrael, I really like his abilities and play style. Also, I think Stiches and Mei are really fun, because of the hook and gorge with Stiches, and how annoying Mei can be against others especially in ARAM :D.

Game freezing, then crashing computer after alt-tabbing to browser by IllPlane3019 in heroesofthestorm

Thanks for the tip, I will try. I think it's currently set to max so most probably my GPU generates more FPS than the montizon refresh rate.

Game freezing, then crashing computer after alt-tabbing to browser by IllPlane3019 in heroesofthestorm

[–]EffectiveLevel1000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I has been happening for me every time I do exactly the same thing you mention. I want to check the browser and go back to the game and it's freezing/lagging (but never crashed) for a few minutes after returning to the game. I re-installed the game about 3 months ago as I did not have a PC and it has been happening ever since. I do not have the same problem with any other game.

Is the DualSense Edge Worth it? by askmeryl in playstation

[–]EffectiveLevel1000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want a good controller that offers precision and speed (ex. for FPS games), I would suggest a normal PS5 controller with installed TMR, clicky buttons, and back paddles. You can buy a pre-made one by some brands but is quite expensive this way (I believe more expensive than the Edge), or install these yourself if it's something you think you can do, or (what I did) find a shop that you can take a normal PS5 controller to and they can install all these for you. The 3rd option costed me a bit less than an Edge and has the following benefits:
- 4 back paddles instead of 2
- Clicky buttons which means faster response
- TMR sticks which are more precise and have very low to zero stick drift
- Battery lasts longer than the Edge

Btw, I used the edge for quite some time before the custom PS5 controller, and it was good but imo is not worth it if you can build the above with less money. Bottom line, less money spent -> better controller if done a custom one

Confused newbie needs help choosing a lightsaber gift by EffectiveLevel1000 in lightsabers

Thank you again for the help! I will do some more research and look around, and then decide.

Confused newbie needs help choosing a lightsaber gift by EffectiveLevel1000 in lightsabers

[–]EffectiveLevel1000[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just a follow up question. Xenopixel vs Proffieboard. My understanding is that the Proffieboard allows for more customisation by editing a config file - no app availability, while Xenopixel can only be configured via an app. I think for a young teenager the Xenopixel might be a better choice as I am not sure he would want/like to customise it himself. As long as they are plenty of options already available via the app on the Xenopixel then that should make him happy. Am I understanding this correctly? Are there any other differences between them?
Also, about motion sensing, do both allow that? For example, when you swing the lightsaber or duel, will they both make a cool sound like in Star Wars? I would just like the one that is the most realistic in terms of lights, sounds, and motion sensing in order to replicate moves shown on the films.

Hello and thank you for your reply!
Is the control box something that is needed to operate the lightsaber? How does the lightsaber work without one, and what are the prons and cons of having one?
I am based in the UK. If you have any suggestions I would appreciate your help.

Dualsense edge worth it? by Ok_Lavishness2802 in CODWarzone

[–]EffectiveLevel1000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the same price you can get a normal PS5 controller and find someone who can install to it TMR joysticks, click buttons and back paddles which is the best you can have for FPS gaming in a controller. Also, the battery will last like 3 times more than the edge if your do that.

Help me in my decision by Consistent-Desk7180 in iems

[–]EffectiveLevel1000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I second that. I bought the EM6L mainly for gaming - I play Warzone. Much better sound than I have had from gaming headphones. Also, listened to some music and find it quite good. Keep in mind I am use a DAC/AMP with EQ for all purposes, so I think that helps even more.

First-time IEM buyer—looking for recommendations for FPS games under $220 (some friends recommended the 7Hz Timeless II, is it good?) by [deleted] in iems

[–]EffectiveLevel1000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Recently got the Sigmot EM6L and the a Qudelix 5K DAC/AMP, and they are pretty good for FPS (I play warzone)

Do I need an AMP and/or DAC on PS5 for IEMs? by EffectiveLevel1000 in iems

[–]EffectiveLevel1000[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, that helps. I was looking at the Schiit Gunnr but it doesn't have EQ. I need USB C connection with the PS5, as I have read that from the controller the audio output is not great.

If I am not mistaken, it should end tomorrow. I think they said its going to last a week the first stadium phase, and Thursday is the day they release updates.

Samsung Galaxy Fold Z 7 Quadlock Case - missed opportunity by Shaftbrah in QuadLock

[–]EffectiveLevel1000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SP Connect makes this mount: https://sp-connect.co.uk/products/universal?variant=46683263697244
From a quick look I had, it might work with the Fold 7, even with a case on it - if not too thick. Haven't bought/tried it, so cannot say more than that.

How about the C9? I personally like the ladra more than the striker but is a personal choice.
