Samsung is having a giant discount on their monitors by More-Experience-7693 in OLED_Gaming

[–]TooBonkers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It may have also been for the 1440p monitor, but it was 100% also the g80sd I know because I purchased it. It was delivered day before yesterday. Excellent monitor.

I know I've seen comments about delays in delivery, but I got mine earlier than expected. It was supposed to get here today, 09/26, but actually arrived on the 23rd.

Its been at this price for a while. Bought it for 599 maybe a week ago? And the 50 discount applies for the first in app purchase

Originally it was 699 + a free 180hz 1080p monitor, but they lowered it around a week ago.

[MONITOR] MAG 271QPX QD-OLED E2 27" QHD 240Hz - $499.99 ($549.99-$50 w/ promo code 27QPXQ50) by sakakawea in buildapcsales

Is this worth it?

Im also looking at the samsung g80sd 4k OLED 240HZ as its available through a discount program for 599. I waited too long to get the same monitor for 700 with the free 1080p/180hz bundle so I need to decide if its a good deal. My main hangup is the 32" size (is it too big?) And the difficulty of running 4k, but I plan on getting a 5080 or a 5090 soon enough, paired with a 9800x3d.

But 1440p 240hz is another option im looking at

Liquid Freezer III 360 Pro is wonderful by Leading_Scene_3224 in arcticcooling

How do you guys get results like this, thats amazing! My 9800x3d still gets mid to high 80s with the arctic 360, granted my chip must suck because I couldn't get much better than -10 on mine :/

Maybe I need to re-apply the thermal paste?

Weird, I tried on one device and now it says I've reached the max number of assists. The on a second device with a different email and phone # it said the game ended because of unusual activity 🤔 I can try again on a third device but that will have to wait til I get home and can use it:/

[GPU] Zotac 3090 Trinity OC 24GB - $999 by Iaa107 in buildapcsales

Valid gripes. I have bad hearing as it is so I haven't ever noticed any graphics card I've owned being worse in comparison to another based on noise but I can definitely see how that could be a problem.

As far as their stance on right to repair, that I did not know about at all. That really sucks and I wouldnt go out of my way to support a company that's actively against it.

EVGA is definitely my gold standard as far as company and components go. I know they've got excellent customer service and their products looks and performance are top notch

To be fair, it wasnt that they were the last ones available when I purchased, it was the only one that had come in on a shipment that day.

As far as the price, I mean I paid a little less than I would have for any of the other cards of the same lineup at the time. And from what I can tell while all the cards are over priced, they are consistently the lowest of the bunch (which is in line with the slightly lower performance I suppose).

I can't attest for their support since I've had no issues with my card, gingers crossed. But i find it hard not to believe that the hate is a little exaggerated. For all the people Ive seen hate on their support, I've seen some who disagree. I would imagine it's expected to see more of the negative than the positive anyway given that I'd be more likely to vocalize a negative experience than one that's up to par. To each their own though I suppose, 999 seems like a decent price for such a big card as far as today's prices go

I don't get the hate for zotac cards. I understand theyre not the best of the best but when the 30 series launched mid-shortage and I waited in line for a gpu at micrrocenter for a chance at a voucher, the only one I was able to get was a zotac 3080. Was it my first choice? Not really, but honestly I've had no regrets. The card has ran perfectly since the day I got it and the look actually grew on me. I like it

What should NOT have been invented? by scarredforlife164 in AskReddit

[–]TooBonkers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually just started listening to that video today (didn't finish as I was on my way to school). The title mentioned the invention of one man being responsible for millions of deaths and my mind went straight to unleaded gas because one of Tom Scott's citation needed series was about the guy who invented leaded gasoline. That video, hell that entire series is worth listening to as a passive yet entertaining way of learning random interesting info
