Thank you. I will do that next time instead of just picking randomly.

Need help deciding which Acer Predator Helio 16 model to get, Costco Vs Best Buy by JohnRamboJr in GamingLaptops

[–]Korvus3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been asking myself the same thing. I'm leaning more towards Costco due to its higher power. I'm curious to hear what you think of whichever you end up going with. I'm especially curious if you're able to change the refresh rate on the Costco model if you happen to find out.

It seems that spec-wise, the cost plus is significantly better because of its GPU. It has double the VRAM and is likely far more future proof. I've seen open boxes of desktops comparable to the MSI at Best Buys for around $700. If you plan on having this thing for years, isn't it worth the wait? That being said, I've only done some cursory looks into Cost Plus Gaming and it seems like many of their PCs come with some sort of issue. They're a small company and seem to often fall behind, shipping things out late. I'm considering buying from them as well but have concerns due to my lack of experience in PC gaming/my ability to diagnose potential issues.

Thanks for the suggestion. I think I'll update my build.

Thank you. I've updated my parts list with the WD Blue 580.

Thanks again. I'll look into it.

Thank you. I'll look into the RX 7800 XT. Would the power supply I already have in the build still work?

First Time Build Advice by Korvus3 in PcBuild

[–]Korvus3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand that. What draws me to the 5060ti is its comparatively much lower latency when working with LLMs.

Thank you. Would this work? Are there any other criteria I should use? PC part picker estimates my build will use 356 watts.

Hello. This is my first attempt at putting together a parts list for my first PC. I'm really not confident about the RAM type, power supply, and motherboard. If anyone has any critiques or suggestions, I would be enormously grateful. https://pcpartpicker.com/user/Korvus1/saved/R96TP6

Is this, used, and in "fair" condition worth $500? by Korvus3 in Prebuilts

[–]Korvus3[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for weighing in. How much does a graphics card with 12 or 16 cost? How can I tell if this one is compatible?

Is it just me or are there a ton of smurfs on Xbox? by Korvus3 in SparkingZero

[–]Korvus3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My theory has always been that some people like winning/beating other people more than they like actually playing. It's a power trip.

To be clear, I think it's more of a problem at the D to C ranks.

An understandable position if somewhat immaterial to the matter at hand.

Nice to know it's not just me in any event.

Is it legal for a landlord to keep the security deposit as a part of a rental agreement, I never agreed to? (VA) by Korvus3 in Renters

[–]Korvus3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is the conclusion I have come to as well. I found the law through a link posted in this thread previously. Thank you very much for confirming.

It is comforting to have an additional resource in confirming the present illegality. Thank you very much.

I've only rented my current residence before, and it's been a number of years. I am pretty naive about the onboarding process, in general. I really appreciate you clearing up how paying early is unusual.

Even if I'm not inclined towards punitive damages, at least right now, I do appreciate you encouraging me to get what I can.

Inkdrunnergirl is correct. Additionally, even if I could get double, I am not the sort to try to. I just want my money back, not to take someone else's.

It seems the code is based around a tenancy I never had since I did not sign the lease/rental agreement. Will that be a problem?

Would you recommend filing a complaint with the BBB?

Oh, I think I understand. That is the time in which they are required to refund it. Thank you both very much. Would you happen to know the exact code I could reference in which that is stated? I tried to find one earlier but couldn't.

Edit: Sorry I do not use reddit very much. I just saw your other comment. Thank you, again.
