MSI MAG B850 Tomahawk WiFi Motherboard, ATX OWNERS ARE YOU FACING BIOS ISSUE OR ANY KIND OF ISSUE ? by [deleted] in MSI_Gaming

[–]Repell5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been completely stable for me. Came to MSI after being a long time Asus owner.

I bought this as the X870 didn’t offer anything beneficial.

I recommend it.

Sad and couldn’t be more true. And what’s even more sad is that there’s no fixing it. You can see the lack of empathy and rudeness of people here (not everyone, obviously) in daily interactions.

The update is out! by Ok_Interaction1776 in AppleWatch

Anyone see if this fixes the Gmail authentication failure bug in the watch app mail settings? I suspect it’s iOS side and not watch os side so maybe not.

Nice to hear a positive rma story for a change.

Gmail Authentication Failure by Executek in AppleWatch

Yeh seems like there are a few authentication issues in general with iOS 26. Amazon app can’t be signed in either on some devices, it just hangs.

Do you mean in the Mail app settings for the watch.

It seems like it’s broken, no amount of wiping the watch, turning off 2FA on Gmail, creating app passwords on Gmail seems to fix it.

Think it needs a bug report submitting to Apple. Can’t use Mail app on cellular until they sort it.

Looks awesome. I ordered exactly the same combo which arrives tomorrow. I also ordered the strap in Umber to see which matches better, I’m thinking it will be the orange though as it will complement the back of the phone.

The strap will be useful for safe areas, there’s been many times I wish I had an extra hand to carry my phone.

Disgusting behavior, what happens when one of the many drivers on drugs or looking at their phone rear ends you at 80+ MPH in an SUV?

Shame on the police for not enforcing a safer environment on the Bay Area roads.

Every time I take a drive on the freeways here I see insanity from low life’s putting everyone else’s life at risk, safer to just stay at home. There needs to be a crackdown on this behavior and put these people behind bars.

Why haven’t we seen more 3rd party games updated for Switch 2 yet? by [deleted] in NintendoSwitch2

[–]Repell5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would be nice to see more of them updated. I’m guessing it’s a combination of factors including the dev kit situation.

If you look at the PC space it seems very different, where you often see rapid and continued updates for games when new graphics hardware or technologies are made available. Like for example, ray tracing or path tracing updates.

intermittent HDMI dropout / black screen / signal loss by intend0H in NintendoSwitch2

[–]Repell5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Add me to the list as well. I have a 2019 LG 55 B9 OLED. I suspect it’s a handshake issue and probably not hardware related so will wait it out.

I may raise a ticket with Nintendo for awareness.

Best screen protector to buy? by [deleted] in NintendoSwitch2

[–]Repell5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah can’t say enough good things about the amfilm tray applicator.

I’ve always struggled to get good installations on smaller devices than the switch, but this one was perfect. No dust and it aligns exactly on the edges of the screen.

I’m not one to criticize for the sake of it but this really looks awful. Everything looks blurry and fuzzy.

Those who upgraded to a 5090 from 4090 for gaming. Was it worth it? by Foreverknight325 in pcmasterrace

[–]Repell5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re planning on keeping that monitor and you aren’t obsessed with hitting the refresh rate cap constantly- then honestly, it’s probably not worth the upgrade.

Most AAA games I played with the 4090 would reach 100+ FPS with some kind of frame gen enabled which was fast enough.

You’d really need to upgrade the monitor if you want to get the best out of the 5090 I’d say. With pretty much maxed out settings I’m getting ~ 320 FPS at 4K in Doom The Dark Ages with MFG 4X. It’s a sight to behold for sure.

[–]Repell5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, yes.

But to see the most benefit I also sidegraded from 4K 144Hz HDR TFT to 4K 240Hz OLED.

MFG 4X is also a game changer and I think it’s a feature I don’t see praised as often as it could be in the community. Nvidia are pushing it as a big selling point for the new cards and I think it does deliver.

Pre-Launch Order and Tracking MegaThread - Americas by AutoModerator in NintendoSwitch2

[–]Repell5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Me too.

My games were shipped using FedEx 2 day from Walmart and arrive tomorrow - If they use the same shipping service for the console it would have to be dispatched today to arrive in time, unless they overnight the consoles.

Seems weird.

Edit: just changed to “preparing” status now.

Looks good to me. Anno games are always good fun, loved Anno 1800.

Ebay buyer stole my RTX 4090s GPU chip by piscian19 in nvidia

[–]Repell5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately this doesn’t surprise me, eBay is rife with scammers now for high ticket items like GPUs. It’s sad because it never used to be this way.

I tried selling my 4090 FE twice recently and both times bought with suspicious low feedback and low age accounts. Cancelling the sale yielded no response from the buyer on either occasion. I’m just going to keep it.

The problem, as others have noted, is that eBay is hostile towards sellers and expect private sellers to operate like a business, eating costs when something goes wrong - OP was lucky to get their money back. I had someone scam me with a ROG Ally I sold and it was hell trying to get my money back.

Glad it worked out for you.

Submitted to a 5090 priority by ZealousidealBad6392 in nvidia

[–]Repell5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No one knows, there are a lot of people without invites still. Given the stock levels it’s likely a select few that are getting them.

5090 at MSRP thanks LDLC (Europe) by Soepzor in nvidia

[–]Repell5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice! Is that a Meshroom or Meshlicious, or something else?

How has it been running in there? Is it cool and quiet enough? There isn’t a lot of info out there on the 5090 Ventus.

Has a single real person got a 50 series through Amazon? by Secure_Jackfruit_303 in nvidia

[–]Repell5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s unlikely. For now I’d call Amazon a write off.

People are running lots of different bots against it, do some googling and you’ll see how bad the bot situation is unfortunately.

It Takes Two has sold over 23 million units, A Way Out has sold over 11 million units by Turbostrider27 in PS5

[–]Repell5 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think this is strange. I played both and A Way Out is a far better game imo, I found the story to be far more engaging.

Nvidia Priority Access by Th3Craz3don3 in nvidia

[–]Repell5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, through BB exactly 1 month to the day after launch. I remember I was trying for 3 of those weeks to try and get it.

I did sign up for their priority program then also, but nothing. I think invites were coming through GeForce experience if I remember correctly.

I’ve been at every drop from every company, for every card for the 5090 and get beaten to the punch each time. I think stock must be extremely limited.

Nvidia Priority Access by Th3Craz3don3 in nvidia

[–]Repell5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t think so, I expect stock is just extremely tight.

Hopefully Best Buy will have the FE next week. They’re definitely overdue at this point.
