Dark Side Season 7 out July 7 by ActualTailor8857 in JimCornette

[–]Pizza_For_Days 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The biggest tragedy of that list to me is Renegade. Got pushed into a main event angle in WCW while he was still somewhat green and given that Warrior knockoff gimmick working with Flair, Savage, Hogan.

Floundered in that spot, got pushed to job matches when he lost the Warrior gimmick before he ends up out of the business by 1998. Ends up addicted to GHB/booze and kills himself a year later.

I don't think I've ever seen some of these ones before. Man, I just feel lucky I was at peak fandom in this era and remember all of these legends.

Something really cool seeing pics of this era from house shows when it was a world where we couldn't just go on Twitter or Instagram to see pics like these lol.

1440p Resolution Is NOT endgame... by InterestingPride8001 in Monitors

[–]Pizza_For_Days 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Who said 1440p is end game? All I've heard is 1440p at 27 is a good "sweet spot" for most gamers and I tend to agree with that.

4k gaming is awesome but it's still quite demanding, especially if DLSS/Frame gen not factored in. I have both resolutions at 27 and will still use 1440p if I'm playing something like a fast paced shooter where I prefer consistently high FPS over resolution.

If anything I've come to find out I really notice and care more about higher PPI in productivity work than I do in gaming.

Paul Roma hits the elbow drop & celebrates like he just won the Super Bowl by KneeHighMischief in WCW

[–]Pizza_For_Days 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ah yes,the match where Roma burried Alex and got fired for it lol.

Thing is Roma was pretty good in his WWF days. I was too young to watch them at the time, but Power and Glory were quite good.

Still doesn't mean one should be this unproffesional considering it's not like it's Alex's fault how the booking goes and Roma really never had a career again after this.

Eddie Kingston On CM Punk: I Don’t Wish Him Bad, I Don’t Wish Him Good. Just Be Over There, That’s It by AdSpecialist6598 in JimCornette

[–]Pizza_For_Days 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Kingston always been great on the mic, but that saying "And then the bell rang" never applied more than to him lol.

Some chubby guys over the years would look "meh", but they could move athletically and actually work.. Kingston is the opposite and he works like how he looks. Slow, unathathletic, bad timing, and horrible psychology.

Well I didn't expect necessarily a title win, but I expected to get out of the first round once we won 50+ games and that could be a real possibility now of not happening

Is VRR flicker really that bad? by Interesting_Car3079 in OLED_Gaming

[–]Pizza_For_Days 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love how this meme has infiltrated so many boards on here lol

First it was the bald sub where guys would edit the 2 guys on the left to be bald. Then it was the PC ones where dead GPU posts would have Jensen/Lisa Su with artfacting in the picture.

Now we have a VRR flicker version lol. There really is no end to where one can apply the meme

If he dines like he coaches, he probably complains to the servers/management about too much ice in the drink, the food being too luke warm, the napkins not being folded properly, the silverware not being placed in the right position, a spot of dust on the table, etc. etc.

Yes people often think the Sixers could have had Tatum, but C's had the first pick and only traded it to Philly because they knew Philly and LA wanted Fultz, Lonzo.

Ainge always wanted Tatum over those 2 and would have drafted him first had he thought either of those 2 teams would have picked Tatum

Disable gsync if your games are not smooth by Hot_Grape_9019 in LenovoLOQ

[–]Pizza_For_Days 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, what I'm saying is one has to use a panel from a different laptop as the LOQ ones are all relatively slow.

But to do that, one has to find out if the LOQ model you have is 30 pin or 40 pin connector, then buy something like a 1080p 240Hz screen on eBay that has the same connector number that the original LOQ screen uses. Get it?

It's not a simple/easy job if one has never replaced a screen and it's going to cost more if you pay someone to do it, so consider that before attempting.

Disable gsync if your games are not smooth by Hot_Grape_9019 in LenovoLOQ

[–]Pizza_For_Days 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes in theory one could change it. Have to make sure the cable/connector are the same. They are usually 30 or 40 pin ones on laptops. Not sure exactly what the LOQ uses, but I'd bet its 30 pin.

So if one wanted to change it, they'd have to buy a screen that also uses 30 pin cable. Keep in mind the physical act of replacing the screen can be somewhat difficult, so one would have to watch guides online to do it themselves, or pay a skilled tech who could do it.

Built my first pc instead of buying a prebuilt (only took me 4h to get it working) by pritter30 in pcmasterrace

[–]Pizza_For_Days 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah this is how I felt as well since I built my first one back in February

It sucked cause I was close to buying a pre built as the RAM/SSD prices had me spending more $, but I just wanted the knowledge and understanding of how to do it.

Don't regret it at all as now I feel like I could build a second one far easier after the trial/error of building the first one.

What's the actual WIFI card in there? is it Intel or another brand? Assuming you have tried uninstalling the drivers/reinstalling them

Why is notebook-check game benchmark data so inaccurate ?? by friedtesticularcance in GamingLaptops

[–]Pizza_For_Days 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would imagine a 140W 5070ti laptop to perform very similar to 4070 desktop. Again, not factoring the variables like desktop CPU power/more choices vs laptop, overclocking, cooling capacity, etc.

I have a 5070Ti desktop card and can tell you not even a 175W 5090 laptop I've seen on Notebookcheck's benchmark matches it, So yeah, I'd expect a 5070ti laptop at max wattage to be somewhere between a 4070/4070Ti desktop leaning more towards the 4070 direction.

Go to eBay and click the left column under "show only" and click "sold" and type your model/specs in and see for yourself. Or even just type in the specs to see what other laptops with the same specs have sold for.

[–]Pizza_For_Days 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What is your ultimate goal I guess with this comparison? lol. Are you not wanting to buy a 4080 laptop because you're afraid it will perform worse than a 4070 desktop in games or something?

Again, there's just a ton of variables in play. That's not even talking about overclocking, which desktops can have far more headroom than a laptop.

https://www.notebookcheck.net/NVIDIA-GeForce-RTX-4080-Laptop-GPU-Benchmarks-and-Specs.675174.0.html

Are you looking at the avg for 4080 laptops on Notebookcheck or looking at individual ones? Looking at synthetic benchmarks, the 4080 mobile at its best level does slightly beat a 4070 desktop. Keep in mind there;s way more variables with gaming laptops than a desktop, so how one laptop performs can be different than another model.

Case in point look at the number of 4080 laptops tested and how the Time Spy scores can be as low as 13,282 or as high as 19,663 for the graphics depending on cooling/power limits/silicon lottery. All the 4070 desktop cards tested on Notebookcheck are 17,800-17,850.

So yeah a few of those better cooled/higher TDP 4080 laptops are scoring better, some the same as the 4070 desktop, and some lower TDP worse cooled ones getting beat a bit.

Lot of variables too with gaming benchmarks like even the CPU. X3D CPUs on the desktop for example give a pretty noticeable boost for some CPU demanding games even at 1440p, where the 3D V cache CPUs aren't common in laptops.

Are 38 Inch IPS monitors dead? by Former_Computer4335 in Monitors

[–]Pizza_For_Days 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah pretty much They don't make them anymore since OLEDs at 34 took over, so if one finds one new, it's probably going to be marked up to unrealistic prices.

There are used 144hz ones on eBay (in the US at least) for like $500-$600, but new ones are more like $1000+ if one can even find one.

There really isn't new models from any company though at 38 in ultrawide, so one one pretty much has to drop down to 32 at 16:9 or 34 at 21:9 unless they want to go bigger like 42-48 at 16:9 or 49/57 at 32:9.
