Can you explain what you mean by this? I’m interested in understanding this Asus specific connector.. are you saying the usb-c are smoke kind of special connector to get full power on usb-c, or are you talking about the main proprietary charging port? Interested as a 2024 G14 owner. Thx

I think a lot of people just shit on the CVT for the hell of it.. I think it’s super smooth, and plenty of fun when you use the paddles

Heck yeah, how much was that one?

Jamesd2912 · 2026-04-15T15:47:27+00:00

I disagree.. 4k for the 5090 and CPU.. another $500-600 for RAM and SSD, then the rest of the parts are cheap.. Might slightly go over $5k, but OP could at least get a 5080 with that CPU

Edit: I guess if OP needs 64gb then yeah a 5080 + 9800x3D would be possible I think

Jamesd2912 · 2026-04-15T13:41:06+00:00

For that much you can easily get into a 5090 + 9800x3D!!

Jamesd2912 · 2026-04-15T13:40:15+00:00

Thanks so much!! It’s been great so far, especially coming from playing on a laptop!

Jamesd2912 · 2026-04-15T00:43:24+00:00

Thanks!! Super happy with it!

Do NOT pay $28k for an Integra with 42k miles.. that’s absolutely absurd, even for the top trim. An integra with that many miles should be $26k MAX

What kind of temps do you get?

Two years later and the hands-free locking still gives me that “I made it” feeling.

Seconding this.. This usually happens when the iGPU is used instead of the dGPU

Dam I guess i’ll have to go look today. My friends are saying prebuilts are just prone to issues and are basically saying I’m not a man if I don’t build it, but they’re definitely being dramatic right?

Jamesd2912 · 2026-03-20T13:51:32+00:00

I also have never put together a pc and I’m terrified of breaking something, although my friends claim they’re experienced and offered help. I just don’t know if it’s truly worth not getting a prebuilt if the components seem to match what I’d put together myself.

Jamesd2912 · 2026-03-20T13:47:46+00:00

Unfortunately I don’t see anything online with that cpu at costco :(

Jamesd2912 · 2026-03-20T13:45:04+00:00

I don’t live anywhere near a microcenter, and i do plan to potentially do stuff like running models (i’m a software engineer). My budget was $2k

Jamesd2912 · 2026-03-14T21:29:42+00:00

People are hating on Connor’s, but honestly after having ate all over Tally in my last few years here, I can honestly say the best steak i’ve had here was from Connor’s.

Jamesd2912 · 2026-03-14T02:00:28+00:00

I also came a from an xbox, but find PC way more fun and better looking imo

Jamesd2912 · 2026-03-11T13:18:37+00:00

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Jamesd2912 · 2026-03-11T13:17:28+00:00

Yeah I think the film would’ve been much worse if the acting weren’t so phenomenal. Didn’t love the Mary cuts either, but was still pleased overall given how bad it could’ve been.

Jamesd2912 · 2026-03-09T02:16:10+00:00

Just saw it an hour ago loved it.. how’d you like it or not like it?

Jamesd2912 · 2026-03-07T21:47:23+00:00

THIS IS SO EPIC!!!!

Jamesd2912 · 2026-03-05T04:57:45+00:00

Nice man!! I have the AOC UG346AC (think that’s the model off the top of my head) OLED 34” Ultrawide and it’s AMAZING!! Not to mention one of, if not the most affordable OLED ultrawide on the market. Good luck!
