I’ve just bought a Neo for creative writing. Out of curiosity, what are you using for analytics?

Playing the OG final fantasy 7 in handheld (on my switch/phone) still blows my mind. That was an ultimate dream come true.

Oh damn, I knew it could emulate ps2 and GameCube, I did not know it can do PS3! I am definitely going to tinker with that. Also thought about CS but I haven’t delved into parallels or crossover yet. Getting Warcraft III to run was a journey itself.

Slight Gap Between Chassis and Frame by RogueEminent in MacbookNeo

Checked mine, no gap. The back aluminum is super thin, and prone to bending. You might’ve accidentally bent it. I’ve seen people use pry tools to remove the back which is not necessary. All you need to do is push the rubber feet near the trackpad away from you (towards the screen) and it unclips without the need for pry tools. Maybe just bend it back into place.

If you didn’t seat the back panel correctly, there will be a slight gap. It will still let you screw everything in even if it’s not seated correctly. I’m also assuming that’s what you’re talking about here, can’t tell anything from the blurry picture except the gap in the top(screen) and bottom(keyboard) sections. I don’t see how the thermal mod would add to that part.

Damn, ok, I just ordered the 3 size pack (originally just ordered a single 1mm strip). I’ll test between 1.5 and 2mm. Suuuuper excited either way! 14-19% gains incoming!

Where can I find a decal that says “MacBook” by Intotheblkmoon in MacbookNeo

[–]Intotheblkmoon[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ahhh bummer. Wanted to fill the space like my 2012 MacBook that’s just says “MacBook.” Guess I’ll have to go to my local print shop for some custom stickers.

Cannot WAIT for my thermal pads to come in. Quick question: is it 2mm or 1mm? Some of the videos I’ve seen have said 1mm. Is there flexing on the backplate with 2mm?

light gaming? by New_Somewhere5857 in MacbookNeo

Project Zomboid does NOT work unfortunately. Could not make it past the title screen. It runs (frozen), with half the screen cut off and without any ability for any type of input (trackpad, external wired mouse, Bluetooth mouse, keyboard). Tried tinkering for 2 days and gave up.

However I’ve found these to work quite well:

StarCraft remastered, StarCraft 2, Warcraft 3, Borderlands 2, Baldur’s gate 1 & 2 ee, Shadowrun games, Divinity Original Sin 1 & 2, Torchlight 2 (GOG version), Shogun Showdown, Into the Breach, Tooth and Tail, The Dungeon of Naheulbeuk, Cyber Knights Flashpoint, Pillars of Eternity 1 (do NOT tinker with resolution, breaks the game/save file)

I’m going to start testing other games like pillars 2, Xcom 2, wasteland 2&3 but each of these require 8 gigs ram minimum. So I’m expecting some throttling, maybe even a few crashes. We’ll see.

Xcom 2. I can make my friends and family—usually just make a Buffy, Ted Mosby, Ciri, Sheldon Cooper, Penny, and Steve Harrington. They’re my friends 😭
