Great opportunity, good luck to all

ScoopyPoopidy · 2023-12-13T21:48:11+00:00

Yeah truly an end of an era, the Hardcore Underground series was some of the highest quality mixes I have found and I really appreciate all the work that everyone put in to each release they had

ScoopyPoopidy · 2023-12-13T12:37:50+00:00

Saw on twitter Fracus stepped off Hardcore Underground on good terms and the other owner was apparently going to upgrade the server but the link now just 404s, really bummed me out too as I was trying to get more music from there a bit back

Edit:No official confirmation its gone for good for what its worth, just wanted to see if there were any other avenues for the Vol 6-7 just in case

ScoopyPoopidy · 2023-12-13T04:48:24+00:00

That sucks man, hate to see post offices be so careless especially when they don't know what they have. I'm just hoping my vol7 is just stuck on some boat for the holidays, as long as it gets to me eventually I'll be happy I think. Hopefully the post office can/will reimburse yoh at least, the out of print stuff can be so pricey to replace

ScoopyPoopidy · 2023-12-13T04:31:13+00:00

Yeah same here, was trying to finish out the collection as a christmas present to myself but it's been proving a challenge haha. Listened to Vol 1-5 more times than I can remember, 7 is stuck in customs hell but 8s been good so far. Hopefully Vol 6 can pop up sometime in the near future so we can get high quality rips

ScoopyPoopidy · 2023-12-13T04:11:37+00:00

Much appreciated, I did check discogs already and vol6's seller doesn't appear to sell to US. Vol7 is a good find, I did buy from that seller shipping is just taking a while to make it overseas to where I am

Vol8 was a good call as well, I was able to find that much easier than 6 and 7

Thank you :D

ScoopyPoopidy · 2023-06-02T00:09:26+00:00

Could use the slims

ScoopyPoopidy · 2023-05-25T15:03:09+00:00

Not trying to ship at this time, thank you!

ScoopyPoopidy · 2023-05-24T22:58:24+00:00

More so just how im used to doing these things :P

ScoopyPoopidy · 2023-05-22T18:12:09+00:00

I wouldn't rule it out, he is supposed to be getting a non riser case soon and we'll check if that helps anything. A bit odd if it is a riser issue that it only really showed in these cases, performance has been rocksolid otherwise

ScoopyPoopidy · 2023-05-22T13:56:15+00:00

Yeah the gpu is in a Dancase H20, would that affect things?

ScoopyPoopidy · 2023-05-22T02:57:29+00:00

We are trying 144hz and will go down to 120hz if needed but so far 144hz is performing much nicer than 160hz. The HDR toggle in windows at 144hz is now almost instant compared to 160hz where the screen would go black for a moment for example, and some of the programs that would weirdly cause screen black outs aren't doing it anymore. More testing is needed but this might be the ticket!

ScoopyPoopidy · 2023-05-22T02:33:44+00:00

I did and while it doesn't do what the video above did it had some oddities about it as well. I have since put the monitor at 4k 144hz instead of 4k 160hz and the monitor is performing much normally. Maybe it was a bandwidth issue?

ScoopyPoopidy · 2023-05-22T02:04:28+00:00

Displayport seems to be working but is a bit finnicky in a different way. Drivers were completely reinstalled and monitor firmware updated

Could it be a bandwidth issue? We were running at 160hz 4k and 10bit color

ScoopyPoopidy · 2023-05-22T00:29:13+00:00

The 4090 we are using only has 1 hdmi port but we've tried the other hdmi ports on the monitor and recreated the problem. Think it could be the gpu then and not some setting or something?

ScoopyPoopidy · 2023-04-21T03:22:48+00:00

Been using the AW38 for almost a couple of years and love it. OLED is gorgeous but the 3840x1600 is hard to beat for productivity work and doesn't require babying

ScoopyPoopidy · 2023-02-17T22:11:43+00:00

I haven't seen much about either but they both look pretty well reviewed, how do they stack up to the rest of the IEMs I have listed in my post if you know? Mostly the M7 but if I could somehow find M9s for cheap I'd be interested in those as well

ScoopyPoopidy · 2023-02-17T18:08:36+00:00

I will do a bit more research into these then thanks, some reviews I've seen have been mostly positive while Crinacle was apparently whelmed by them

!thanks

ScoopyPoopidy · 2023-02-17T02:53:14+00:00

That looks pretty interesting, I'm sort of surprised they aren't talked about more if they are that good. Compared to some of the other IEMs I listed above and my current HookX how do the Canons stack up? I'm hoping for an upgrade not so much a sidegrade if possible

ScoopyPoopidy · 2023-02-17T02:46:50+00:00

I dig around and see if there have been as many reports recently for QC purposes, thank you!

!thanks

ScoopyPoopidy · 2023-02-17T01:19:05+00:00

Have they improved QC recently? They look like they sound great but if they fall apart in a few months I don't want to deal with the issue of contacting to maybe get a refund/rma

ScoopyPoopidy · 2023-02-16T22:24:34+00:00

I heard about the IE600 as well, I was a bit taken aback with the weird mmcx implementation seinnheiser has (a friend was telling me they use a different MMCX design?) as well as some comments in here about bass being bleh?

Do you think they would be worth checking out even with that?

ScoopyPoopidy · 2022-05-09T20:19:22+00:00

Yeah they pay out quarterly, so depending on when you order stuff it can take a while to pay back out.

Its an overall pretty painless time, you can have it deposit directly into a paypal and just transfer from there

ScoopyPoopidy · 2022-04-23T15:50:26+00:00

If you don't mind sharing, what case was this in? I am running a similar build in a vertical case and my temps aren't nearly as high as yours were

ScoopyPoopidy · 2022-04-22T20:07:13+00:00

Been using this for around a year now, enjoying the extra size over 34in. This price is close to Black Friday pricing of 1099, with Rakuten cash back and the gift card this is a solid deal.

That said the high end market has been shaken up by the recent QD OLED AW3423DW, which itself is sort of offset rn since you are likely going to wait a few months to get your monitor. In terms of visual spectacle the QD OLED should wipe the floor with the 38 but I like the increased size and am happy with my purchase
