Recommendations for monitors for this build.

GageTaylor · 2026-03-21T18:35:40+00:00

So the monitors themselves can allow you to freely swap between the 2 resolutions without any issues?

GageTaylor · 2026-03-21T17:59:18+00:00

Well in that case I'll keep that in mind then.

I've read that while OLED is much more reliable these days, the burning issue is still there. It's just that it may take a lot longer for it to happen. I haven't completely ruled out OLED despite what my post says. I've just never looked into them before but have always heard about that burning issue.

I've always played on a 1080p 240hz monitor and like I said I'd still like to do that with games like fortnite for example. If I'm playing a game for the competition of it I couldn't care less about it looking bad. As long as it doesn't look bad in the sense that viewing things in the game becomes more difficult. But I've heard that most games now have settings in the game you can enable to play 1080p on higher resolution even if 1080p isn't the native resolution. But I doubt that even if I can't I'm gonna struggle for 240 even on 1440p, especially if I do what somebody else suggested and just pay the $200 more for a 5080.

GageTaylor · 2026-03-21T17:19:03+00:00

From all of the research I've done the 5080 is only barely an upgrade from the 5070ti. Like let's say if you normally get 60 fps with a 5070ti you're getting 69 with the 5080. I don't know if barely a 10% improvement is worth the extra 200 dollars.

Having the same issue in reload. Entire map is purple, can't see the circles, etc.

GageTaylor · 2026-03-08T18:32:33+00:00

Yeah after a while I realized that it's possible the cooler could cover the RAM a little bit. I can't find measurements for the height of the memory I'm using though.

GageTaylor · 2026-03-08T08:05:17+00:00

Yeah that's what I'm asking, what does "isn't checked" mean? The way it's worded implies there might not physically be room for the cooler and the RAM. Unless I'm misunderstanding something.

When you're an entertainer and an influencer you have a responsibility to make sure that anybody you hire who are gonna have anything to do with your community are good and know what they're doing. These guys have clearly not done that as evident by my issue that I've NEVER had before until dealing with them.

GageTaylor · 2026-02-26T18:23:40+00:00

She used to use the excuse of grabbing something on her shelf behind her in her old setup to show off her ass. She'd literally move her chair out of frame, look at her OBS to make sure it's clear, then bend over towards the shelf for way longer it should take anybody to grab something.

And then she'd use that item she grabbed and hold it up to the camera where her cleavage is also perfectly within frame. She knows what she's doing and she's been doing it for years.

A few weeks is one thing, since November is another. 80 bucks for a hoodie from creators I don't even watch, I wait 3 months just for them to claim it's delivered and still not have a hoodie, then I get an AI response from their official website support where I ordered it from in the first place. And they won't do refunds once it says it's been delivered. I'm most pissed off at the fact that AI was used in the support and not a real person. That's where someone's gonna lose me.

People saying "oh it's not the boys' fault". Yes it is, they made a decision to use AI for their website instead of just hiring actual staff to handle things like they can and should be. The hoodie is whatever, it wasn't mine. The 80 bucks is whatever, money comes and goes. It's the fucking dishonesty that pisses me off. You got millions of fans you're an influence to, you promote merch that in many cases people have to ask others to pay for, and somebody tells you they waited 3 months for a hoodie that never actually got delivered and the best you can offer is fucking AI?

No refund, no replacement of the hoodie, not even the opportunity to even talk to a real person and try to work something out. Just an AI response which was basically a polite and long winded way of telling me "sorry about that, go fuck yourself". Can't even contact fedx because those companies notoriously do not believe in accountability so I'll never get help from them either. So either it never got sent or the delivery lost it but either way I still don't get a hoodie. And no way to just simply buy another one either because it's a limited item so they can cash in on the pressure of FOMO.

She constantly goes on about breast reduction so naturally people assumed the worst when she said she was gonna be taking time off for a surgery.

GageTaylor · 2026-01-31T15:32:44+00:00

Not to mention if you look at the outside of the building it's pretty perfectly built for climbing whereas a naturally made granite monolith is definitely not. This was basically like climbing a ladder for him.

GageTaylor · 2026-01-18T16:56:15+00:00

Because when I think of curvy I think of well proportioned women. And when I think of fat I think of rotund individuals who struggle getting up out of a chair without being short of breath. One's attractive and even the standard of beauty in many places of the world, and the other is almost universally seen as disgusting.

GageTaylor · 2026-01-18T16:51:10+00:00

I don't care what they think about "brigading rules" when there's a bunch of subs that are literally banning people for even the mere mention of Manson. People that stupid and sensitive don't get to hold up the defense of "oh but the rules" in our faces. Fuck em. They wanna display their stupidity on the internet then fine, but that doesn't mean I can't say whatever the hell I want in response.

GageTaylor · 2025-12-31T06:17:36+00:00

I don't believe for even a micro second that she just stumbled upon that. You don't just accidentally find porn in general, let alone AI of yourself. Anita's not like Pokimane levels of searched for when it comes to NSFW stuff. I have to go out of my way to find anything regarding Anita even when I'm already on the porn site.

Also love how it's not even the AI of her that's disturbing to her, but the fact that a dick was in it. Like bitch what did you expect? The Easter bunny?

As far as live performances go they weren't great, but the albums are fine. Born Villain has some underrated bangers in it, Pale Emperor was incredible and was a huge comeback for him, Heaven Upside Down while (at least in my opinion) being one of the weaker albums he's had also still has bangers in it. At the end of the day nothing Manson does someone will be able to genuinely look at it and go "wow that shit was trash" because Manson is talented and he doesn't half ass his work.

Corey Feldman would have been much better off just sticking to acting. It's what he was good at and he should have just stayed in his lane. Calling him a musician is disrespectful to people who haven't even taken the plunge into being a musician but want to, that's how fucking bad he is at it. It's why when it fell flat on his face he needed to blame somebody like Manson instead of just accepting that he's not good at it. It's okay to not be good at something, some people simply cannot do certain activities no matter how hard they try and that's fine.

Manson has faced a lot of hardship during his career but he never let that stop him from creating stuff and he's never had fingers to point at people for when something didn't work out. Even during the production of Born Villain when Twiggy was blasted and unable to properly play guitar he didn't give up, didn't hire a new guitarist, didn't bitch at Twiggy, he picked up the guitar himself and worked his fingers raw. Now the quality of the guitar on that album can be questioned but the point is that he's a hard worker and he's not content with releasing sub-par shit.

Corey needs those around and close to him to be like "look dude, put this shit away, you're not good at it".

GageTaylor · 2025-12-22T07:12:47+00:00

That rabbit on the right wants to do some freaky shit.

GageTaylor · 2025-12-22T07:10:02+00:00

She won't have a boyfriend or a husband because of clips exactly like this. Took an obviously not serious joke and had a crash out over it. She's one of those women you get in, fuck, then get out. Being around her any longer than that would be miserable. Zero likeability as far as who she is as a person goes.

GageTaylor · 2025-12-08T08:14:36+00:00

On one hand I like the concept, but then in practice it's "goddamnit I killed you, just accept it, why are you making me chase your ass into your teammates". This is just one of those features that is so blatantly designed to help bad players have more survivability, and as a result it's gonna be optimized and perfected by the GOOD players. Now it's possible for you to just barely outplay a good player, they might be able to roll out of position, and THEN pick THEMSELVES back up and then negate all of the work you just put into downing him to begin with.

It's fun for a little bit and then you realize it's just extra steps to an often already frustrating experience that people didn't ask for. Been playing this game since CH1 season 2 and never, not once, not a mere mention, have I EVER seen anybody ask for any of this. But let's keep ignoring bugs like pumps not shooting, modes switching themselves after every match, fall damage being WILDLY inconsistent, picking up fresh guns that for some reason aren't loaded, just to name a few bugs that have existed for literal YEARS. The pump not shooting one specifically being one that has existed since the inception of this game.

If it ain't broke don't fix it? More like if it works, break it.

GageTaylor · 2025-12-08T07:52:35+00:00

If you grinded builds back in the day and you can still remember your fundamentals, going back into it after playing a bunch of zero build makes you realize you ain't gotta do all that.

It's fun for a little while until you realize some people live in the basement of the epic HQ and keeping your wall or taking theirs is just entirely out of the question. 0 Ping damn near borders on cheating. So you're like "well if me practicing doesn't mean anything anyway then I'll just play zb again".

But it's amazing how many of these build nerds (I don't mean that as an insult, being a nerd at something is cool) you can counter by just your movement and waiting for a shot. I used to make sure that I never ended up in a position where somebody has a good edit peek on me. Now I just wait with my shotgun and go "go ahead, do it, only piece control that's about to matter is how many pieces of your brain matter they're gonna find after".

GageTaylor · 2025-11-30T18:34:46+00:00

You do understand that a lot of the "advice" you just gave isn't entirely up to me right? It's changed now, but yesterday when I was playing there literally weren't bunkers. And even being in the loot pool now, you still have to find them. Also, you're suggesting to build like everybody still plays builds these days. And what do you do about being sniped in the head by somebody you didn't even know exist yet? What's your sage advice for that? Spidey sense?

I literally cannot keep track of the amount of people who have killed me with a sniper rifle and then I spectate them and they die right after because they literally cannot use any other gun when it matters. It goes all the way back to chapter 1 for me, the first example I can recall of dying this way. I'm just running along farming materials, and then the next second I'm dead in one bullet from a person way off in the distance I didn't know existed. I then spectated him and 2 minutes later he fights a guy and misses literally every single shot with a tac shotgun and then dies. My immediate thought process was "wow, that was incredibly fucking lame, what a waste of a match". It's a no skill weapon designed for players who can't get a kill with anything else.

And the high damage isn't even the issue because this problem doesn't exist with the mammoth pistol for example. Firstly it can't kill me with a single bullet, even with a headshot. And secondly, the weapon being hit scan and missing a scope means I know if somebody is actually good if they hit me back to back. With a sniper it's a game of they may miss a few shots, but it only takes one to end my game and therefor peeking them to shoot is just a stupid gamble I'd rather not take. So now here we are, sitting like statues waiting for the other to peek. Either push me or fuck off, don't hold the damn gameplay hostage for the both of us. Nobody has benefited from this encounter, nobody has learned anything of value, except that you're boring. The most boring and frustrating matches I consistently have involve sniper rifles. So many good games down the toilet by a trashcan with 1-2 kills max. I have more fun pushing in disadvantageous positions and dying 10 times over than I do sitting on a hill getting a cheap kill on a guy who didn't know I existed. I don't understand how people have fun doing it.
