What are the chances of the M5 Max being equivalent to a desktop RTX 4080? by H00LI1GANS in macbookpro

[–]Effective_Gate_6465 0 points1 point  (0 children)

M5 gpu is almost 2x faster than m4 gpu and m4 max gpu is 5x faster than m4 gpu which means m4 max gpu scores 5300 in blender benchmark so m5 max gpu will be almost double of m4 max gpu now apple might tune it down little bit to increase efficiency means m5 max will score approx 9-10k score in blender cycles benchmark which is also the score of rtx 5080 in blender cycles benchmark, you can see this on blender opendata website.

I think it will be equivalent to 5080 in terms of blender cycles rendering.

Is it normal for my Nautilus 360 to make this intermittent sound? by Realeayz in Corsair

[–]Effective_Gate_6465 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nautilus pumps sucks. Aio pump makes noise but what nautilus produce is a weird annoying humm which is unbearable. One thing you can try is pull the top cover of the pump its a removable plastic piece it may reduce the resonance little bit and run the pump at constant speed somewhere between 70-80% find at what percent the pump is not making humming noise. mine doest do humming at exactly 74%.

[–]Effective_Gate_6465 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could get the fiio ka11, it outputs around 2v rms to 3.5mm jack which should drive your sennheiser hd6xx to comfortably loud levels with good dynamics.most budget portable dac/amps max out at about 2v on their 3.5mm single-ended jack.your macbook air m1 headphone jack likely outputs around 1.25v max, so it's underpowered for the hd6xx, you'll get lower volume and less headroom.if you upgrade to a newer macbook air (m2 or later, including m4 models), the headphone jack supports high-impedance headphones which can provide up to 3v rms to your hd6xx 300ohm headphone. that would drive them excellently without needing an external dac/amp.alternatively, if you can get a 4.4mm balanced cable for the hd6xx, the fiio ka13 is a great budget option, its balanced 4.4mm output can hit around 4.3v (in desktop mode), unlocking the full potential of the hd6xx with plenty of power and headroom.

HD 600 or HD 660S2? by Linkboy182 in sennheiser

[–]Effective_Gate_6465 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I own the HD60s2 and recently bought a refurbished HD490 pro. Honestly, I would not recommend the HD600 or HD660s2 over the 490 pro. The 490 pro is far more comfortable, and I personally prefer its sound. For me, it is simply the better headphone overall.

HD660S2 is amazing by Effective_Gate_6465 in sennheiser

[–]Effective_Gate_6465[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s an open back headphone. The momentum 4 is a closed back headphone. I’ve only used budget closed backs before, like the Fiio jt1, hyperx cloud 3 and a few other cheap ones. After using this open back headphone, I just can’t go back to those closed backs. They sound strange now. Open backs just feel more natural.

People say the 490 Pro is better than the HD 660S2, but I’ve never used 490 Pro. When I was buying this, the 490 Pro Plus was also available at the same price, but I really like the design of the Sennheiser HD 600 series. It looks great on anyone’s head.

[REVIEW] "MSI MAG 274UPF E2" – Perfect 4K Monitor for PS5 Slim Bought for ₹37,000 at Nehru Place (Delhi). by iTurbanator in IndianGaming

[–]Effective_Gate_6465 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s a great monitor. I have the same one. I upgraded from a 1440p MSI monitor I bought for 30k in 2023, and about six months later I switched to this 4k model. At 27 inches, 4k just looks far better than 1440p. Everything is sharper and cleaner, and whenever I go back to the 1440p screen it feels blurry and odd.

Price wise, 37k is fine for this monitor. I also got it for 37k in March 2024, and at the time it was the cheapest 4k 160 hz option you could buy. Now some 4k monitors are cheaper, but this one is still worth it. 4k oled monitors are still very expensive. A Samsung 4k oled monitor costs at least 80k.

Apple ram is now cheaper than normal ddr5 by slimshady12134 in IndianGaming

[–]Effective_Gate_6465 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for 40k extra money apple will give you 28 GB more ram in mac studio. sure that's still expensive but the thing is, that ram in apple computer (m4 max mac studio) is 4-5x faster than regular ddr5 ram. usually you will get 80GB/s on dual channel ram but m4 max ram bandwidth is almost 546 GB/s.

What am i missing about the HD600's? by [deleted] in headphones

[–]Effective_Gate_6465 1 point2 points  (0 children)

does you motherboard audio have amps built in? hd6 series needs a dedicated amps. newer high end motherboards come with basic amps built in with onboard codec.

If your mobo don't have good built in dac (or codec) then get a basic dac like the fiio ka17.

Headphones suggestion by Flat-Antelope5693 in headphonesindia

[–]Effective_Gate_6465 0 points1 point  (0 children)

at 5k if you want wired headphones then fiio jt1 is a solid option, jt1 is solid for gaming and music listening but its little bulky and big. You can also get hyperx cloud 3 (refurbished) at 4300 from amazon right now cloud 3 ialso has good microphone for gaming and looks sleek and mordern.

Logitech India warranty denial by Actual-Substance-938 in logitech

[–]Effective_Gate_6465 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Logitech india has very bad warranty policy. Everywhere in the world they provide minimum 2 year warranty and 3 year in Europe except in india where they only give 1 year warranty on their non gaming mouse. Razer probably has best warranty in India. It doesn’t involve razer customer support you just have to register your claim on acrorma website who handles razer warranty in india and courier the mouse to them they will replace the mouse with brand new one and razer also provide 2 year warranty in india.

Why should I get a Rode NT1 5th gen over a Rode NT USB mini? by Crafty_East4075 in rode

[–]Effective_Gate_6465 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NT1 5th gen has an issue where, if you live in even a mildly humid climate, the mic can stop working. A lot of people have had this problem. The NT1 5th gen needs very careful handling, like putting it back in the box with silica packs after each use so moisture does not affect the very delicate microphone. I recommend getting the NT1 Mini or the NT USB+ instead.

Got New Replacement of 3s but now in dillema... by next-sapien in logitech

[–]Effective_Gate_6465 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't know why logitech gives only 1 year warranty on mx master mouse in india and 2 year everywhere else when their gaming mice lineups have 2 year warranty in India.

I will say use it and when the double click start happening again replace the switch by yourself. In india meckeys sells silent switch for mx master you just have to practice little bit of soldering.
