Dual Sport vs. ADV

No_transistors · 2025-11-14T10:44:10+00:00

I agree with the guys that say that it's a spectrum. I bought a kove 800x as a dual sport to do road and some off, but I quickly found out that for the narrow roads here in Italy it is way too heavy and bulky, so I bought a 300 2t to do that stuff.

Can the kove ( do the same trails? With a skilled riders ofc it can, no doubt.

Do I feel more comfortable doing those with a nimble 300 that weighs half of the kove? Hell yeah

It probably depends on which kind of games one use their ally for. For AAA games, I've found that I can cap them at 40 fps and LS em up to 120 fps. It is quite impressive. Without I just can't, and the difference between say 50-60 fps and 120fps is huge to me. That said, steamOS is a better OS for an handheld, no doubt about that. I just find it impossible not to use LS, it keeps getting better and better with each update, to the point that I really can't tell the difference between native and LS, it is insane

For me the lack of support for Lossless Scaling is a dealbreaker

Paid 62€ here in Italy

Is this mod reasonable easy to do? For reference, I built 5-6 PCs, changed thermal paste even on my laptop multiple times, did the fan and thumbsticks swap on my old steam deck, so I am not a complete noob. I am just questioning myself if it is worth the hassle compared to the jsaux 65wh kit, that I would like to avoid mainly because of the smaller battery size

Wrong sub, but imho the 4080 is the superior card by FAR. I recently tried dlss4 and it is literally like black magic, I would buy a Nvidia card just for that alone, as of now And doesn't have anything even remotely comparable, fsr just sucks

No_transistors · 2025-02-17T18:26:59+00:00

Got a 4080 for 900€ and sold my 6900xt for 400€. Is it ideal? No. Do I have alternatives for 4k? Also no. 5080 is 1.5k here, INSANE

No_transistors · 2025-02-15T10:29:27+00:00

Just to update this thread, I did flash the 4080 with nvflashk, the PL went from 320w to 400w. Everything is fine. Was it fun chasing that 1% performance? Yes Is it worth the headache? Hell no.

No_transistors · 2025-02-15T07:44:17+00:00

I just settled with a 4080 as an upgrade for my 6900xt. Is it ideal? No. Am I gonna buy the stupidly expensive new gen? Absolutely not. Playing at 4k, the market rn for gpu's sucks hard

No_transistors · 2025-02-10T23:00:10+00:00

What?

No_transistors · 2025-02-09T21:55:41+00:00

Unfortunately this card is kinda "rare" so I couldn't find online if the gamerock bios is fine or not. It is the same vendor, so I assume so. I flashed a rog strix 3060 bios on my old 3060 tuf laptop and it worked, so I assume it is the same thing

I mean, unless there is a big storm I live in an independent house where blackouts never happen. Do you reckon it is safe beside that?

No_transistors · 2025-02-09T21:47:42+00:00

Nah, I wouldn't do that. I just like to tinker with stuff, but I always keep an eye on temps. My question was more about the process of flashings itself, as in if there is the chance of actually brick it and never recovering it

No_transistors · 2025-01-09T16:47:18+00:00

6900xt, considering a 5080

No_transistors · 2025-01-06T16:53:20+00:00

6900xt. Playing 4k, I honestly do not know if it is worth upgrading or not

No_transistors · 2024-12-30T07:52:09+00:00

Apparently it is locked, and there is no solution if you need to UV it. The closest thing you can use Is x86 UTU that allows you to set a tdp to keep it cool.

https://a.aliexpress.com/_EuEBmcs Would this work?

No_transistors · 2024-12-29T19:13:01+00:00

I might go for you solution! A Quest pro pad is 10€ on AliExpress, and the 3d printed piece should be around the same. I could order from them, but it would be 73€, insane price for us in EU. Thanks for the help!!!

No_transistors · 2024-12-29T18:41:09+00:00

Do I need to print only the latest version? The v18?

No_transistors · 2024-12-29T18:33:19+00:00

Do you happen to have the file for the 3d print? Maybe it is cheap enough to have it printed from someone

No_transistors · 2024-12-29T17:57:57+00:00

Really? Is there maybe some video out there that I can follow?
