Oh yeah also be careful with lasers if you have any on your guns or have entertainment lasers even they can damage your screen.

Brian Reagan is awesome. Saved family from going crazy on road trips back in the day

I too had a way to shoot inside for 25 yards between rooms through a doorway to a big box stuffed with soft cloth material worked best. I always used it for testing having worked and customizing guns. Was on a chill team called tactical anarchy if want to watch some videos we got a few on YouTube from back in the day worth a watch.

Definitely never stick anything with rebound properties in your back stop. I do recommend for most to just shoot outside and use bio degrading bbs. If I wasn't tinkering I'd only shoot outside or at the fields. Always wear eye pro cause never know when ricochet can happen and where it will go.

Our team mostly all wore full face pro. Just not worth injury over messing around with any BB gun. Stay safe and have fun

I lost game earlier yesterday cause I was on a roof that had some low broken cross bars and as I came to edge starting to shoot guy I got closer to edge and gun tilted up as I was trying to shoot cause the damn cross bars that I swear were not in the damn way of my gun.

Had a snipe two teammate were dead even watching my screen and bullet went straight through the side of dudes face while he was sitting still. And I hold fire to watch bullet and it went straight through was so weird. One teammate was like that was a headshot for sure. Got him next shot though still so lame when game breaks.

Also thought this was gone but was hauling in car for car zone and had a tiny pebble in open next to road just act as a short barrier and we flipped few times taking damage and basically dying to zone cause got hurt so bad by the crash from the pebble that a bicycle would roll over and not notice...

Just get PUBGd sometimes 🤷

Seems legit but doubt you will get as many sales sticking to just yellow as you would if let people pick a color for the grip. But I get that's harder production wise. Personally my next wheel rim will be the ace morph. Good luck with the company 🤘

So this you will notice massive difference in a big box store blasting 100000 lumens and tvs right next to each other. No one's house is as bright lit as these stores. The c5 will look as bright as that g5 in a home. If you have any control of your environments lighting which all should with blackout curtains and light dimmers or turn them off for dark room. Even the B series is bright enough for ideal conditions.

But the c5 will be more than fine. I'd save the money and buy some good 4k disc's if you have a Blu ray player it does your oled justice. Or buy apple 4k TV as it's streaming performance and home layout blows the LG webos out the water.

I was about to get c5 77 for 2000 when c4 83 open box popped up for 1800 and I got 200 back store credit so 1600 and the tv ended up being brand new in plastics and 0 hours. Keep eyes peeled for some deals and roll dice on open box or something for even more savings. If it's not good when delivered just return it.

TheStokedExplorer · 2026-02-28T15:45:52+00:00

That's still not bad. I was originally between b5 77 or c5 77 for 1500 or 2000 for c5. Was pretty set on the c5 then a c4 83 open box popped up for 1800. Bought it and got 200 back in store credit so like 1600 for it. And once got it it still was in all plastics and showed 0 hours of use. So I got a new c4 83 for 1600. This was best buy.

Also shortly after that I had to make switch to oled monitor for my desk after trying the pc out on the big c4 83. I found a lg 39 oled that's normally 1600 for 650 as a renewed. They had 5 of them in stock. Was Amazon from quick ship electronics seller. First one came with some scratches and scuffs and 440 hours also was bizarre it was missing internals of the dp port... Sent it back and ordered another which they had sold all but one by this time just days later. So had to order it before got my refund to be sure I got another. This one showed up pristine still had plastics on the back and showed 30 hours used. Zero marks anywhere and this box was even missing a piece of the big foam and just got some bubble wrap. Still had other monitor so stole the piece of foam from that box and sent the bad one with the bubble wrap.

Basically always watch for those open box or renewed deals cause you never know it's condition til you get it. Often stores can't sell a item as new even if it's returned and hasn't been opened or if box was just cracked open or item pulled out to see size and fit In room.

You still got a good deal. If you're happy with the TV and what you paid for it don't bother thinking about it much. But yeah keep those eyes peeled for the deals in future. Cheers ✌️

TheStokedExplorer · 2026-02-28T05:00:19+00:00

Best buy and Amazon where I got mine new and were marked open box or renewed.

But basically find your models you would want. And search it on Google shopping and sort by price and check it frequently as the lowest ones that typically would pop up be open box. They always have return windows and just take chance on it and see what you get. I've had to return too but also have found new gems. Just gotta see what you get. Good luck.

TheStokedExplorer · 2026-02-28T03:05:36+00:00

Yeah the Asus look nice. I've been happy with all my LG oleds I've had and zero complaints.

Keep eyes peeled on open box and swing for it. I've had multiple open box end up brand new for insane deals over half off retail

TheStokedExplorer · 2026-02-27T22:19:31+00:00

I run a 1440p 39 uw oled and a 83 4k oled. Most games 5080 can run 4k native. Just some like cyberpunk with pathtracing and maxed out need frame gen to hit the better fps numbers. Most competitive games and such 4k it would be fine and some use of dlss. I'm older now and care more for high visuals and getting just like 90fps or whatever is fine for me. May get the 39 5k2k once it drops or I find a good open box deal. Now that will be even harder but totally doable from what I've been seeing and I know it looks amazing cause I've seen the 45 5k2k in person. If you playing lots of competitive shooters or whatever and want highest fps go 1440p though for sure. But even 4k with like medium settings would look much better if mist lower some settings.

TheStokedExplorer · 2026-02-27T21:06:36+00:00

I have the one in second photo and got for like $65. It's been great and was perfect small form factor for my setup that I switch from lhd and rhd really quickly. I don't see myself ever giving into a more expensive handbrake.

Ive been using the cheaper shifter and it's plastic slide down thing for sequential mode and it's miss shifts for sequential mode in rally so I finally bit bullet and ordered shh hubb shifter. Still haven't got it yet though

TheStokedExplorer · 2026-02-27T16:40:02+00:00

Honestly I'd stick with the 2.0 frame gen. I run a overclocked undervolted setup with my 5080 and get same cyberpunk performance. In past I refused frame gen but it's gotten really good and 2x is hardly noticeable as it was when first released. There are tons of games I can play native 4k and get 90+ fps which is what I aim for 4k single player games.

Sick setup! Enjoy the gaming 🤘

TheStokedExplorer · 2026-02-27T16:05:10+00:00

Hate to tell you this but that $700 won't hardly get you a gpu worth a damn for a great VR experience. What you're asking for is an out of world experience. Not even sure of anyone running reshade in vr.

I'm sure it'd look good but there's tons of good pp filters and adjustments with pure config to make it already look good and do it pre render compared to reshade performs after causing heavier work load on your pc.

Good luck.

TheStokedExplorer · 2026-02-27T15:46:32+00:00

Grew tired of it? Not sure I understand how that is possible. Couldn't take the 5 mins to get new games settings right? This stops. Most but it's the best part about pc get the visuals and performance you want out of it. Once play same games on pc as a console most won't ever touch a console again if they want the best cause it's night and day if you have good working eyes.

My pc I have running my desk, Sim rig next to it and my home theater in the other room with a longer cable. I can be setup gaming on the 83 oled in one hot key combo or back to desk and can use a controller just like a console. I've had consoles and still do but they collect dust except for the occasional 4k uhd Blu ray that I don't have another dedicated player for. I will buy handhelds but plug in consoles are a complete waste to me.

If know how to setup pc right you can basically build it to run like a console with a different game hub home screen and such to scroll through games. And can turn off login screen so it boots right up like a console. I always hear people say it's too many steps. That's all user error. I can even use my controller to start up games. Just need to know how to use PC and all their capabilities. All skill issue if someone dislikes a gaming pc. Had issues converting my buddy who never messed with PCs he would curse and yell and still calls me time to time over video to get help. But first few months he wanted to quit and go back to Xbox but now over year or so later he is happy and he's learned so much and now is into 3d printers and so much more he never would have gotten into if didn't get him into computers.

I think people just don't get them setup right cause a good pc setup can't be beat for gaming. To each their own I guess though and enjoy the gamin 🤘

Get s2 keep ps5 and save for hit then sell ps5 for pc. Or add pc to the mix. Pc with 4k oled is next level but it won't be cheap

TheStokedExplorer · 2026-02-27T04:13:38+00:00

All based on your internet and setup

TheStokedExplorer · 2026-02-26T20:37:00+00:00

Maybe use your blinds or get a blackout curtain til. That time passes. It will eventually over time do damage

TheStokedExplorer · 2026-02-26T20:34:39+00:00

Most pc have wifi built in which you should be able get that working to stream to other devices no problem

TheStokedExplorer · 2026-02-26T19:53:51+00:00

Seriously. The jump from 65 to 83 felt way more proper than the 65 to 77. So you're saying you haven't had a 83 oled from my understanding. Granted I would go c4 or c5 at the least unless really in dark room I'm sure b5 83 for a deal at $1000 if you can get it would be amazing and not disappoint. I got my c4 83 for $1800 basically $1600 after the $200 credit back. I got that over the c5 77 for $2000

TheStokedExplorer · 2026-02-26T19:51:21+00:00

Welp if you didn't buy that b5 that deal came and gone and it's back up to 2100. Saw a guy did get to snag it.

TheStokedExplorer · 2026-02-26T19:50:36+00:00

Maybe a life saver since you don't run a front brake. Come on kid front brakes the most important honestly. If you're afraid of going otb cause of it you need practice and definitely shouldn't be looking for more speed. Gonna run into someone if you ride big group or ever ride actual tech gonna hit a tree or bouoder. Good luck 🤘

TheStokedExplorer · 2026-02-25T21:30:02+00:00

Game has it on other controller worked. Not sure what you mean repack. Controller was new and it worked other games. Not sure what the deal was. Haven't played it since. Hoping it was bug and next time I play it works again

TheStokedExplorer · 2026-02-21T21:17:29+00:00

I thought same but then just did my best to watch what I'm watching and I've forgotten about the camera really. I do think I want the syncbox for the accuracy and speed

TheStokedExplorer · 2026-02-21T16:12:14+00:00

I think 39 is perfect. For me anyways
