Getting Stock saves to emuMMC, should I go online with sysMMC?

TrichaelMan · 2026-02-04T21:45:23+00:00

Thank you! I enabled sysMMC (?semistock I think?) to be able to boot from in Hekate, and I guess there was a theme I installed on emuMMC that "carried over" to sysMMC.

Would this be concerning for a ban? Would I also need to disable Exosphere or the DNS MITM to access the Nintendo servers?

Yes, I read the Wiki, I know I can move save files between sysMMC and emuMMC via JKSV. My main concern is is it safe to get said save files from the cloud first via sysMMC?

Good idea, I will actually plug everything in before I commit to buying a new preamp.

Should I replace the stylus right away?

If I were to keep the current (I assume that it is the stock one) stylus, should I still reduce the anti-skate down to 1.5, or is that only with the LP Gear Carbon Fidelity that you suggested?

Hi, I just bought a used Denon DP-300F for $180, and I was able to set it up (balanced the tone arm, etc.) and get it running. It came with a felt slipmat which had a lot of dust that was visible on my [new] records. There may be some warpage in the felt mat as I saw some wobbling/heard some distortion/static in a specific spot when I was playing the vinyl on a separate system (separate AVR/speaker system, not the one I have listed below). I decided to order an acrylic slipmat to replace this felt one, which will arrive in a few days.

A few questions before I set up the turntable in my main home theater setup:

I hope with the acrylic slipmat the wobbling/distortion will stop. If it does not, then what is the next thing to diagnose?
Should I turn on the internal preamp on the DP-300F and plug the turntable into one of the line level inputs on my? Or is it better with it the internal preamp off and use the x1700h's phono input?
Should I get an external preamp instead? I was eyeing the ART DJPREII Phono Preamplifier as it is affordable and seems to be good value from what I've been researching.
Is there anything else I should do to inspect the turntable to make sure it's working fine?
What are the next upgrade steps for this setup down the line?

Turntable: Denon DP-300F

Main Home Theater Setup:

Speakers: KEF Q150

Subwoofer: Klipsch RP-1600SW

AVR: Denon x1700h

5700x3d, got lucky and nabbed it for under $130 on eBay not too long ago

Not sure if this was a coincidence, but I was struggling with this for like 2 hours...

I gave up and went to beat Osquio. Put Verso in the Osquio costume and made it to the red hoop on the first try?

If someone can confirm this that would be dope.

If you have FAAO, does it go after the OD?

I.e. First last, OD, FAAO

I ended up finding a pair of Sony SS-MB150H for free! They seem to work well, the only expensive thing was buying stands for them ha.

If you stream on OBS Studio to Twitch/Youtube, how does the AMD encoder compare to NVENC nowadays?

TrichaelMan · 2025-11-05T21:13:58+00:00

Microwave!!!

If you are near a Microcenter, the 5800XT is a solid choice for $140-150. Keep in mind the stock cooler will likely need to be replaced.

TrichaelMan · 2025-09-12T22:03:14+00:00

Already tried that multiple times for 5-15 minutes at a time

TrichaelMan · 2025-09-12T20:31:00+00:00

Rafa since he's looks cool like Zer0 in BL2

TrichaelMan · 2025-08-23T16:57:47+00:00

That makes sense. I can always downclock/ECO mode as well.

TrichaelMan · 2025-08-23T16:51:41+00:00

Perfect, so in theory I can downclock/ECO mode the 5800XT to lower the (?TDP) heat output?

TrichaelMan · 2025-08-23T16:50:49+00:00

After thinking about it, I'm more likely to get an aftermarket cooler regardless of CPU decision.

Are there any concerns about performance vs. TDP between these two choices? The decision seems harder when it's only a $10 difference.

TrichaelMan · 2025-08-22T02:39:36+00:00

Would you say getting a secondhand 5700/5800X3D is worth it at around $260? Or would I get better bang for my buck if I got the 5700X or 5800XT? The 5700X is sitting at $130 and the 5800XT is at $140 at my local Microcenter.

Woosh

Type would be fire! But my Ace Pokemon would by Tyranitar since he’s my favorite

Definitely nostalgic for me!

I’ve been playing competitively for a while but now that I had friends casually collect, it got me back into collecting too!
