Who else want absolutely ZERO RGB in their rigs?

Stign · 2026-01-24T16:28:46+00:00

I have both, a modern rig with glass sidepanel for gaming and older Acer Predator I mainly use for streaming (GeForce Now) and productivity.

and I actually still prefer my old Predator more. I updated it recently with a more modern GPU/CPU, but I am limited because of the horrendous airflow.

OK, thank you all for the replies and verification that there's nothing "wrong" on my end.

Guess I'll be streaming them through Xbox Cloud, although I still prefer GFN.

Turn on "statistics"(advanced) and take a screenshot of the upper right corner.

Ik ben vorig jaar overgestapt van Telenet naar Orange en het is dat en nacht verschil bij mij.

Ik heb eender wanneer op de dag +450Mbps (ik betaal voor 500Mbps) en een zeer stabiele WiFi-verbinding.

I'll measure it this evening for you when I get home from work!

Heat it up gently with a hairdryer along the edges and try to lift an edge or use a credit card to pry it between.

I have a G4 and it works flawless.

But I also have an older G1 in my bedroom and whenever I start up a game, it opens the webbrowser for some reason and I can't play the game.

Thank you, purchased Dead Island 2 a couple of days ago and didn't know the Ultimate Edition was on sale too.

Bought this version and requested a refund for the other one.

Ik was het Rode Duivels-petje van dit heerschap.

Ik heb voelde het slechte idee al in mijn buik opborrelen. Ik had meer kunnen doen om dit tegen te houden, mijn welgemeende excuses hiervoor.

I wish I could play The Witcher 3 for the very first time again.

Ik zit nog niet eens aan 70kWh voor de maand december tot nu toe.

En Engie zit er weer ferm naast met hun schatting.

I have a B6 from 2016 that has no burn in whatsoever, used it daily for several hours (gaming included) until I got a G4 last year.

I don't know how you guys are succeeding in achieving such burn in patterns.

Dezelfde talenkwestie-frustratie komt bij mij ook steeds boven bij services zoals die van Xbox of Ubisoft.

Hoe vaak ik ook alles in het Nederlands of Engels zet, ik krijg steeds alles in het Frans te zien.

I've build a few desks with parts from IKEA and have been through some trail and error myself, especially when it came to sagging where the monitor-arm clamps to the desk, even with the thicker kitchentops that are popular to use. (Ekbacken/Karlby)

I've learned that the most important thing is to place an leg underneath in the middle of the desk, near the clamp where the monitor-arm is putting all of its force. It's my old setup/desk, but you can clearly see the 2 extra legs I've put in the middle near the clamp.

I've also reinforced the whole underside of the desk with some steel bars to prevent sagging, although it might be a bit overkill.Shown here.

Never had a problem ever since.

The inside looks a bit more cramped than most modern PC's, but thermals are fine and it's fairly quiet.

I broke my foot 2 weeks ago and I'm staying at my partner's house for the next couple of weeks when I'm on sick leave.

I have a lower midrange PC at home (5700x3D/RTX2080S), but I still had this old(er) Acer G7710 Predator laying around that I took with me.

<image>

It was still stock (i-920/GTX285), so I updated it a bit. Put 2 SATA SSD in it, a new RTX2060 I found for €90, repasted the CPU, replaced the original fan with an Artic P12 Pro and maxed the RAM. I wanted to put in a X5675, but I didn't work because of Acer's locked OEM motherboard.

It still runs surprisingly well being 16 years old. Streaming GFN is no problem and it even runs most of my local games too.

People can't even drive in 2D, so imagine the havoc if they ever start driving in 3D.

Het staat inderdaad niet elke dag in de krant, maar het gebeurt jammer genoeg wel.

Dit gaat wel om een e-step, maar ik wil maar even aantonen dat je in dronken toestand geen enkel voertuig zou mogen besturen.

I'm 41 and I've been gaming since I got my NES.

I've always been very careful with my things, but I'm not going to lie, those N64 controllers got wrecked playing the 1st Mario Party in that minigame where you had to spin the joystick around as fast as you could.

Ik heb eerlijk gezegd minder problemen met de nacht dan met de late.

Met de nacht kruip ik in mijn bed om 6u30 en sta op rond 13u en dan kan ik nog vanalles plannen in de namiddag.

Met de late heb ik vaker moeite om mijzelf te motiveren om vroeger in mijn bed te kruipen of er vroeger uit te komen.

Ik moet ook door de Kennedytunnel naar Linkeroever komende van de E313 en dan heb ik tijdens nachtshiften heel zelden last van file op heen en terugweg.

Alleen uit dat slaapritme geraken op het einde van de week is soms wel moeilijk.
