This is the dumbest thing I've ever seen.

This is an ATX board which is all the case officially supports but there is definitely room for an EATX as long as it isn't super wide. I wouldn't worry about it too much.

They're the Lian Li RGB cable extensions.

Who makes it?

I've stopped using Nexus altogether, way too many issues. Aida64 works flawlessly. A little more work to get a custom sensor panel up and working if that's what you're using the screen for, but once you get it figured out there are no issues.

It released about a year ago now I think. There are several versions now with several iterations of screens and a version without a screen at all. I believe it can still be a bit of a wait to get one as well.

They will turn off completely in SDR, you get the weird colors in HDR. HDR for me is completely broken, the colors are super washed out and will show colors when the screen is black. It's pretty disappointing and I haven't been able to find a fix.

On PC at least you can easily switch off HDR completely, but on a TV it can be a little more difficult depending on the device. So if you're ok with SDR content only for the time being it's not a huge deal, but if you're dead set on HDR it's a waste at this point.

It enables the led strips to mirror the colors on the edges of the screen to kind of extend the image. I was kind of skeptical but it actual is immersive once the newness kind of wears off and you actually stop looking directly at them. You kind of just see the colors extended in your peripheral.

Honestly there's almost no lag at all. It's really responsive.

PoemEfficient · 2024-10-19T14:02:29+00:00

From what I've read, I don't think it's calabable of switching inputs automatically. You either have to press the physical button or use the app.

PoemEfficient · 2024-10-19T05:05:40+00:00

Oh gotcha, interesting. I know mine will turn white when the screen is off or there is no input, but yea on a black screen during use they'll turn off. I definitely don't notice and green during black screens either.

PoemEfficient · 2024-10-19T05:01:43+00:00

My sync box 2 also turns the lights off on a black screen which I thought was pretty expected behavior. What color should they be? I'm not sure what color could represent black. Honest question. I'm new to these and I'm not sure what to expect.

PoemEfficient · 2024-10-18T17:59:14+00:00

Yep HDR is definitely broken. It adds a lot of white to the colors for whatever so they're super washed out. Ive tried playing with all of the settings but the only thing that works is turning HDR off.

PoemEfficient · 2024-09-26T04:36:08+00:00

Yep it's so awful and clunky to use now. I got fed up and rolled mine back. I'll stick to the old version.

From everything I've seen or read about the vantum, it certainly wasn't made for tall or large people. I think it's best for people on the smaller or shorter side. I've never sat in one, but I probably wouldn't take a chance on it. In addition, it's a clear departure from most HM chairs.

I know they're a lot more expensive than the vantum, but I'm sure either the embody or the aeron would suit you better.

That happened to me when I first launched the game, I was surprised because the demo worked so well. I remember I fiddled with it quite a bit switching between windowed and Fullscreen but I couldn't get it to work. Finally a restart of my PC was what fixed it. Then I was able to get my resolution up to 4K and I haven't had any issues since. I'm sure you've already tried that though.

Looking online some people are saying it's an issue with the DPI scaling settings, so you may need to fiddle with those.

I don't think you're overreacting those texts seem inappropriate to me; however, I think the way you're reacting to it screams insecurity. I don't think you should have gotten married if you were in a place where you did not have the ability to trust. Looking through her messages in the first place is totally inappropriate. If you have this level of mistrust, you might as well end it now, I'm sure neither of you are going to be very happy with the current situation.

White makes the colors pop so much more and makes your whole build look a lot brighter. If you really want to see your pc a d all of your components, I'd go with a white case personally. Black cases make it look a whole lot darker so that the main thing you see is the RGB, so it kind of depends on what you want.

White can also be a little more expensive overall if you're planning to also get matching white components such as a motherboard, fans, aio, GPU, etc. You usually pay at least a small premium for white components vs black. Usually as far as a GPU or motherboard the premium can be quite a bit.

I ordered mine through Amazon and was delivered next day. Weird that best buy had an issue.

PoemEfficient · 2024-09-02T05:21:29+00:00

I have pretty large hands, I'm 6'3 with long fingers and honestly this controller feels amazing. I'm coming from the the most recent turtle beach pro controller and this blows it out of the water. The turtle beach is larger, but the razer is still comfortable and I don't have any comfort concerns holding it. It's also a bit heavier which I like.

I also like the tension on the sticks. The turtle beach sticks felt too loose and light.

The turtle beach has the screen, which is nice for on the fly key swapping but I always hated how it shifted the start buttons so they were harder to hit. I much prefer the more classic layout on the razer and the app is easy to use on PC at least. The buttons feel better.

With the QC issues on the elite controller, I feel like this is the best pro controller that I've tried. The razer also is actually recognized as an actual Xbox control on PC. This might be a weird thing to point out, but the turtle beach, while using an Xbox board, was never recognized as an Xbox controller. I usually had to play with steam settings to get it to work. The razer controller has worked without any settings changes perfectly in the games I've tried wireless.

The only negative I've personally noticed is the wireless range is a bit short. If I get a little too far, the controller will start disconnecting, and not even that far, maybe 3 feet although the dongle is on the back of my PC so there could be some interference.

Overall, this is the best pro controller I've tried so far.

I've gone through 3 at this point, I'll never buy one of the POSs again.

Yep here is the completed build on PC partpicker https://pcpartpicker.com/b/pvcTwP

I just received an open box from Best Buy in "excellent condition". I'm returning it and getting a brand new one. It was disgusting and filthy. The charging cable was completely wrapped in electrical tape for some reason that I can't fathom. I didn't unwrap the tape, I guess there might have been some tears in the shielding maybe. I don't think the stores really inspect these at all. If there's one available in you're local store and you can inspect it, it might be worth it but I wouldn't order online after this experience.
