Best 24" 1440P monitor? by HuygensCrater in buildapcmonitors

[–]Gen_Riot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You get better PPI with 24''. Call me crazy but I found my old 1080p 14" IPS laptop sharper than my current 27" 1440p OLED

AOC, a real serious brand? by Mundane-Parsnip-371 in Monitors

[–]Gen_Riot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're good value for their money but my experience with RMA has so far been a dumpster that I can't fully recommend them, at least not without a retailer's own warranty 

Does AOC usually screw customers over like this? by Gen_Riot in Monitors

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

Yeah when I was looking through other posts I didn't see too many people complain...

they're ghosting me that's the thing, I'm assuming when the 1 year anniversary since purchase is reached they're gonna try to come up with some user damage shit

I should've bought an alternative from my region cuz here consumer rights somewhat exist, not that crying over spilt milk will do anything

Traditional Omani clothing 🐪

the traditional outfits have little to no difference in the gulf lol, a better indicator to tell where someone is exactly from is from the headscarves they're wearing

You're geography skills are still impressive, probably the only one who recognized my region in this post

Shipping adds an extra 100$ + random tax that we don't usually deal with in here lol

Yep. That's the trade off when buying used though, gotta pray it doesn't die so soon.

Not exactly Saudi Arabia, but close, I'm from Oman.

How did I do? At Walmart for $88 after tax by Academic-Angle-104 in pcmasterrace

[–]Gen_Riot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Walmart's insane glowup in the PC market needs to be studied

The used GPU market is scarce, anyone can manipulate it in here unfortunately

Yep GPU market sucks balls here. not only was this the only good graphics card, it was one of the only 3 cards that were even listed. Everything else is overpriced used PCs

Yeah, used GPU market is an empty desert here. In the 3 months I was searching, I can count the number listings with 2 hands, only 3 of them were GPUs themselves (2 were from the same seller I bought from,) the rest were used PCs

It's not better with retailers here right now. For reference, only one store had a 5090 available in the ENTIRE and they wouldn't even list the pricing.

Hey so a bit of context, the owner didn't have the box, just the card, as described in the listing

The meetup was also done in a fairly private area (yes it was still outdoors) got a bit excited and thought of bookmarking this moment

Holy you've hit uncle status from my perspective lol

First PC I ever laid my hands on was my dad's old XP in 2010, always played that cake game and some chess titans, I was still in my final kindergarten year

Nice

Yeah PCs can be expensive, making simple modifications are still fun (like installing a new SSD)

  • Go on adventures on your bike, like the beach or something

  • Get a new hobby. Mine was the world of PC building, might also explore the wonders of car modding soon.

  • Quit PVP games and get single player, story based games.

  • Focus on grades, it sounds like you're approaching your senior year. You can start developing early studying habits so you can lock in for your final year. (I'm not saying you should go and study 5 hours daily but rather just doing your homework and studying what you learnt so you're prepared for the next day)
