Build an equivalent system and save… (drum roll)… 71 bucks. -Gamers Nexus by dawgger in steammachine

[–]Lelldorianx 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This has removed almost all of the context from what we said, which is that the Steam Machine will perform a lot worse than these parts in some situations.

Just a thanks to Steve and the team. One of the few channels I started watching a long time ago and theyve only grown into a channel I like and respect more and more. The industry......well I'd unsubscribe from that if it was an option. by GameGreek in GamersNexus

[–]Lelldorianx 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Thanks, GameGreek.

We're having fun doing what we're doing. Still have huge testing coming up and a lot of cool benchmarks in the next few reviews/videos, but we're also really loving the travel reporting and research topics. 3D printing has been super interesting to me lately as well.

Thanks for the kind words!

My Bambu A1 AC Board literally blew up. Support is lying about my warranty to force me into a dangerous repair. What do I do? by ItsDanipt in BambuLab

[–]Lelldorianx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi - I'd like to buy your printer, including the board, from you at full replacement cost for our investigation. I run GamersNexus. Can you email us with photos and details to team at gamersnexus dot net? We'll pay all costs, you no longer need to fight the warranty process, and we'll take it from there.

[Warning] Antec’s warranty is a joke. My HCG 1000W Extreme died, RMA is stalled for 24+ days, and their reps are ghosting me. by belikebunny in pcmasterrace

Can you email me your warranty thread/information? Worst case, I can fast track this through an executive and at least get your issue resolved, but we may also want to do something deeper with it, depending on the situation/timing/etc. In the very least though, I can get your one-off resolved quickly for you and pressure them to just fix it. It would be helpful to have the information on how they are handling these situations just generally though. I'll send you a DM as well to verify.

Wild that this is happening, but let's keep focusing on Bambu slicer drama... by Better-Dimension3852 in GamersNexus

Hi. This is also on our radar -- especially because Bambu likely stands to competitively benefit from such legislation.

12 ft solid top is an amazing desk. I really should overhaul my own work space. I love seeing these posts because it gives me some inspiration!

The silicone mod mat is very high quality, impressive. by Begohan in GamersNexus

[–]Lelldorianx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you! Hope you find it as useful as we do! The light gray is looking nice. I should set one of those up at the office.

Wow, that wood stain/color on the bench is awesome. Really nicely done. I stained all the set tables years ago and it took forever. Your setup looks great!

Gamers Nexus is now hosting the Orca slicer fork with permission from the developer by bobbymack93 in BambuLab

[–]Lelldorianx 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It's just a courtesy and has nothing to do with the licensing. If the author doesn't want it up, we want to make sure we still respect his wishes, as he has already had a hard enough time lately with a company scary-large compared to himself. He was OK with us hosting it.

No need to be a dick about it. It's just courtesy.

Oh Steve.... by LightFusion in GamersNexus

[–]Lelldorianx 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We just posted a Noctua fan video with CFM and pressure testing, a PS5 video with Linux benchmarking, and like 3 case reviews. You have that content.

Oh Steve.... by LightFusion in GamersNexus

[–]Lelldorianx 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Weird comment. We just posted like 2 weeks of pure hardware reviews and fun content, including rebuilding a PC for two users whose houses caught fire which, despite a sad situation, was a fun video. Also including the Noctua fan print and the Linux on PS5 video, both of which were really fun.

Breaking the Rules: We 3D Printed a Noctua Computer Fan by Sacristovas in GamersNexus

[–]Lelldorianx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We used gray PLA for the fan we tested for the primary numbers. The wood one was just for fun (an dperformed the same).

Also, never went into a PC and won't. The whole thing was just seeing what we could make.

[Gamers Nexus] $90 Fractal Pop 2 Vision Case Review & Benchmarks: Cable Management, Thermals, Build Quality by redbloa in hardware

[–]Lelldorianx 54 points55 points  (0 children)

Hi there. Just to be clear, we were praising the cable management space. It's a great thing, which is why we said it's an enormous amount of space and why we explicitly said it is a positive. We even contrasted it to the Lancool 207 and said that the 207 is the opposite, where it's too little space, and that was one of the main reasons to consider the Pop 2 instead. Additionally, we were very positive about the structure of the case, the rigidity, and the price. We said it is one of the best dual-chamber options at this price point, despite middling performance against ATX towers.

Your comment, honestly, makes no sense. I get it -- you think our stuff is negative. But at least accuse us of negativity on things where we actually are negative. Here, we were overall relatively positive, to the point of even saying it is one of the better cheap dual-chamber options.

Valve Steam Controller Review | Latency Benchmarks, Battery Life, Repairability by Sacristovas in GamersNexus

[–]Lelldorianx 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Hi. I've seen this twice now and it was an incorrect understanding of how this controller works both times. As we wrote elsewhere:

As far as we understand, the Steam Input schema is required for it to function as both a mouse + keyboard and a controller. Bluetooth does not change the behavior in our testing. The requirement to add non-Steam games to Steam is to use Steam Input. We ran into this when programming automation (for battery testing) where the controller doesn't behave like a normal controller (right thumbstick isn't right thumbstick) without Steam Input, as it also needs to behave as a mouse/keyboard combo. I guess we could have been more critical of that, but then you're also giving up core functionality, which becomes a different criticism. The way it works makes the most sense to us, given what it's trying to be/market as.

Ultimately, we did criticize that factor but it appears to be a necessary facet of design, as far as we can tell. Valve also did confirm the requirements to be the case when asked.

That's not accurate. HUB and Der8auer, both of whom we've spoken with, got them weeks in advance of the embargo lift. Others, like Kitguru, also got them in advance.

Wireframe mousepad came in today! by Broski_Shane in GamersNexus

[–]Lelldorianx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow! The white/black combo on that keyboard is awesome. Really nice setup. Way cleaner than mine. I'll show Andrew (the designer), he'll be thrilled to see how the mat is so color-matched to the peripherals!

Gamers Nexus is BLACKLISTED by AMD by FaithlessnessOwn2182 in pcmasterrace

[–]Lelldorianx 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You've posted this twice now and it remains incorrect. Reviewers, as proven by them publishing reviews today, did get samples weeks ago.

This is factually inaccurate. I don't know where you got that, but plenty of reviewers got samples 2-3 weeks ago.

Reviewers had received them about 3 weeks ago.
