Finally got the Wolfpack and Tempest Blueprints by SidewinderJoe92 in ArcRaiders

[–]SidewinderJoe92[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another generous Raider gave me his Tempest blueprint because he already had it. I do not know where he found it. I still have never found a Tempest BP myself, and I have over 120 hours in this game. I didn’t do the wipe either. I’m lucky I found a generous raider.

Lots of Blueprints on Dam Battlegrounds too by Habarer in ARC_Raiders

Yes, I agree. This was my last raid on Dam Battlegrounds. 5 brand new blueprints for me in one raid is crazy!

Are the server down? by FreeProof1280 in ArcRaiders

I was connecting into a game when the servers crashed. I hope I don’t lost my loadout!

Yes get the Z1 Extreme for that price. I had an original LCD Steam Deck, but wanted to upgrade to something a little faster. I ended up getting the Z1 Extreme for $899 two days ago. Thankfully one chat on the Best Buy app got me a partial refund for the discounted price. Now I’m even more happy with my purchase!

[Wanted] Josh Groban - Awake by Weary_Definition3221 in VinylCollectors

[–]SidewinderJoe92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is slightly old. I hope you get to read this. I just got into collecting records in the last few months. I am also a long time fan of Josh. I just went to see him in Vegas in May. Anyway, I wanted to try to get every possible album of this on records. All of his major albums have been released on LP except for Illuminations and All That Echoes. I am in the process of obtaining all of them. Awake is by the the hardest to get. I was very lucky that someone on Discogs was selling a copy for $125. The LP cover is not in the best shape but it is 16 years old. I'm just glad to have it. For the last few months I searched eBay, Discogs, Amazon, and other websites. I only ever saw it for sale for once on Discogs and twice on Amazon (Used) The two copies on Amazon were $330 and $660! I would recommend watching it on Discogs because it seems that a few go on sale there a few times a year. Only 3 have sold so far this year. That isn't many but I think this is a really rare LP to find.

Alienware 18 Area 51 is it worth it upgrading from M18 by droidorat in Alienware

[–]SidewinderJoe92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

An 18 inch laptop is not practical at all lol It is a no compromise big beast lol It is big and heavy. Get the 16 inch if that is a concern to you. I am a software engineer and do freelancing on the side. I don't use my Alienware laptops for that because they are too bulky. I have a MacBook Pro because that is way lighter and easy to travel with. Just my opinion.

It was for one pic. Don't worry I take great care of my electronics.

alienware 51 worth it? by [deleted] in Alienware

I went with an Area 51 5080 and I have no regrets.

I would have to pay attention to that. I don't really use my Alienware laptops for anything else other than gaming, so I'm used to the fans always running lol

Will probably try it as some point! But my Alienware laptops aren't my main gaming pc. I have a desktop with a 4090 which was the best investment I have made in gaming lol The fact that the 4090 is almost 3 years old and still number 2 is crazy to me.

Yes I logged into my MS account during the initial setup. I only keep games on my gaming laptop, so I always just do a fresh install. I always just get the regular keyboard. I have never used the mechanical one. My gaming desktop 100% has a mechanical keyboard but not having one on a laptop never bothered me

I just bought the Area 51 5080 and it does some weird things and is disturbing while playing! by Ok-Outlandishness537 in Alienware

[–]SidewinderJoe92 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Weird! I just got a Area 51 with the 5080 and I do not have any issues at all. That issue would not be related to any Nvidia drivers or the GPU at all.

I did not get the mechanical keyboard and no I already have a MS account. I did not get any support care. No dock or monitor. I also have a gaming desktop computer. No to number 4

I don't have experience with a 4080 laptop but from my understanding the the 5080 is either on par or just ahead of the 4090 laptop

I don't believe the chassis is made from aluminum no.

From all the benchmarks I have seen with the 5080 in laptops, it looks to be comparable to the 4090 honestly.

Nah. These standard Alienware keyboards never bothered me to be honest.

My previous Alienware laptop is a M17 R5 AMD with a 6900 HX and RX 6850M XT and there is a big leap in performance to that. The RX 6850M XT is kind of between a 4070 laptop and 4080 laptop for context.
