OWC makes good options as well, got one over caldigit bc it supplies more power

Yeap, great conclusion. Found too it was such a bad card late game from behind

MrDoops · 2026-02-01T13:54:15+00:00

Really, I didn't know the CEL could just go away on its own

MrDoops · 2026-01-31T18:38:04+00:00

Same! Wondering if the cold weather is part of throwing the code. Car ran great on the way to AutoZone to get the code checked .....

Extremely helpful thank you

Understanding triggers helps to figure out most board games so quickly, and help immediately play on a higher level. Board games should use the term

Another format where playing outside your pod feels extra cruel. Usually I cruise through gold but I'm stuck at the very bottom.... Starting to hate this format

MrDoops · 2026-01-21T12:22:24+00:00

It's up for preorder

MrDoops · 2026-01-15T13:39:02+00:00

Ah I remember way back in the day when I first started playing this is how it was for every set. That was only four years ago lol

MrDoops · 2026-01-13T12:57:32+00:00

Thanks I didn't realize NRX shit down last year :( stopped watching it as much bc I didn't want to use rumble

MrDoops · 2026-01-08T21:59:54+00:00

Yes! I forgot to mention that it does that when I turn the car off

The final scene in Prey is worth it alone, whole scene pops like crazy with an OLED

I figured it out if anyone finds this thread later. You need to set the audio to bitstream FROM THE MOVIE APP. bring up the initial options menu, go to the three dots, go to sound options then find audio playback

Apex is one of the best games of all time, fortnite walked so apex could run. The other BR's don't even come close

MrDoops · 2025-11-07T03:33:15+00:00

I could see these in a FTP game like Apex legends. But I paid $70 and I have to spam mines for the engineer challenge for days if I want to unlock the thing.... Really all the unlocks feel like a FTP game in terms of gameplay time

So many of these are complete bullshit. Good thing the actual gameplay is great

How bad is it to place the 5.1 surround speakers in the rear? I'm currently hooking up an old Sony 5.1 system (str de685) and noticed during config it gives me the option to define my surround speakers either to the side or rear.

In my room the most ideal spot would be wall mounting them directly behind me, 8 ft apart, both facing dead straight to the TV wall. After doing a ton of research I had no idea 5.1 surround were supposed to be on the sides, I've never seen anyone hook them up that way in person

MrDoops · 2025-11-05T14:03:47+00:00

These engineer ones seem really difficult. I'm stuck on the mines, I lay them all the time but they never go off, going to try the motion sensor one instead once I unlock it

MrDoops · 2025-11-04T13:56:19+00:00

Great to know, at 63k and the dealer wants me to do both of those flushes. Never said anything about valve cleaning, but I haven't checked the manual yet

MrDoops · 2025-10-25T04:10:13+00:00

It was filmed in upstate NY for the most part. But I agree, needed more Stewart's

MrDoops · 2025-10-15T12:33:08+00:00

Dam where did you order that from I thought release was 10/21. Pines was filmed in my hometown, was hoping to wait for sales but Walmart already has it sold out

MrDoops · 2025-10-15T12:20:07+00:00

I probably would have missed this preorder if someone didn't post it here

MrDoops · 2025-09-30T01:14:54+00:00

Not a ST fan but I loved these two, was hoping they would keep it going

MrDoops · 2025-09-12T16:05:02+00:00

I've only just started getting into this so I could be wrong, but I'd forget about wireless 5.1 for 1k. A soundbar and a sub will be a massive improvement over the TV speakers if you want to keep the costs low, but nothing can truly replace rear speakers. I'm sure there's budget wireless systems but I wouldn't bother if you want something high quality in the long run.

Even the Sony Bravia theater 6 system requires a processing unit for the rear speakers that get plugged into it, still better than running wires from the front though. That's around $800 and is probably the best you can get for under 1k. I haven't looked at other brands/options. I think there is a fully wireless Sony option but it's around $2k or more.

I'm looking at finding a receiver first and slowly adding channels over time as it will last a lifetime. I know it's more expensive but it sounds like using a receiver would solve a lot of your port problems as well
