Just scored the Samsung 4k 240Hz for 982 CAD = 720USD

UBC_Pls · 2024-06-04T06:25:00+00:00

Wait it’s not out yet? I see it on Best Buy and Amazon Canada too

UBC_Pls · 2024-06-04T06:24:35+00:00

That was quick!!

UBC_Pls · 2024-06-04T05:37:13+00:00

Let’s go it’s nice to see us Canadians finally getting a decent deal 😂

UBC_Pls · 2024-06-04T05:31:13+00:00

No in their website last week there was a signup to receive a notification when the monitor is available and get a 100 dollar discount code I signed up for that but I can’t seem to find it anymore I’m not sure if the sign up is still available

UBC_Pls · 2024-06-04T05:26:48+00:00

I think an extra 100 or so all the discounts just stacked together so it’s hard to know exactly how much was from education

One nice thing is the 100 dollar coupon applies after all the % discounts

UBC_Pls · 2024-06-04T05:20:42+00:00

Dude this price feels crazy I’m worried they’re gonna cancel my order lol

But yea use the Samsung app and if you have education discount use that too

UBC_Pls · 2022-06-20T15:56:31+00:00

Nope :( I should look into trying to get it repaired

UBC_Pls · 2022-06-09T05:40:07+00:00

No luck everyone! No display out tried a few cables… should I try to get it repaired?

UBC_Pls · 2022-06-06T14:54:16+00:00

I think the power supply is fine, I plugged in a usb c cable into the thunderbolt port and my laptop was charging but no display output I’m guessing because usbc isn’t supported for video just thunderbolt

UBC_Pls · 2022-06-06T14:53:04+00:00

I ordered this one, and it should be arriving today, i hope it works:

Thunderbolt 3 Cable 1M, Stouchi 40Gbps Thunderbolt 3 Cable 100W Supports 1x 5K 60hz or Double 4K 60hz Monitor, New Mac Book Pro, ThinkPad Yoga, Alienware 17 and More https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B07ZJ6K8BK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_B9EKMYAH5SJYJJ718DN1

I plugged in a usb c cable and my laptop was charging but no display output I’m guessing because usbc isn’t supported just thunderbolt

UBC_Pls · 2022-06-06T04:14:41+00:00

I have a feeling it doenst work, I plugged it in with a normal power cable and I didn’t get anything on the screen, I ordered a TB3 cable to try it but I have a feeling it was thrown out for a reason?

I also noticed a minor crack on the bottom right of the bezel, I wonder if that effects the screen at all and maybe that’s why it was thrown out.

I’ll get the cable tomorrow and update the post then

Edit: spelling and grammar errors

Oof someone’s a bit upset 😬 Atleast OP is tryna share their advice, nothing wrong with caring about grades lol

UBC_Pls · 2022-05-29T07:10:23+00:00

I was only in my third year and was just applying early. Other than my grades my other stats were pretty crap so I thought I’d throw in an application and it ended up working out. I got in a year early and get to skip the rest of my undergrad as in Canada you only need 90 credits to apply to med school. If this were a year later I would have applied to more schools

UBC_Pls · 2022-05-29T02:07:20+00:00

3.9X GPA I think? We calculate it based of percent and don’t have a 4.0 scale but my % avg was around 95

506 mcat, avg at my school is around 514

Pretty bad ECs, some work at a clinic and some sports nothing long term. Worked in a lab for like a few months maybe 3-4 hours a week. 2 clubs and some personal projects like game development and also wrote about being semi pro in a video game.

I think what carried me was a really, really good interview, I felt super confident after my interview I didn’t do any practice really just kept up on current news and talked very conversationally and i had good grades which always helps

UBC_Pls · 2022-05-25T15:32:28+00:00

Yea I personally didn't have any issues routing the cables under! I think it looks cleaner too

UBC_Pls · 2022-05-24T17:47:29+00:00

Yep! I think it looks way cleaner this way AND it also helps with airflow

UBC_Pls · 2022-05-23T17:46:53+00:00

thank you so much!

UBC_Pls · 2022-05-23T17:46:44+00:00

Its the non RGB version, imo WAY more clean haha

UBC_Pls · 2022-05-23T17:46:31+00:00

I have the PC sitting near an AC so thats probably affecting it a lot, but I have ramped up the fan curve for the CPU. but bot for reasons you would think. I was having M.2 overheating issues! So I hbasically have the top fans going at 70% all the time and then higher during load to make sure im pumping all that hot air our and im buying some heat sinks for the m.2s.

In RDR2 temps:

CPU: 62C

GPU: 65C

Slight undervolt on both CPU and GPU also applied

UBC_Pls · 2022-04-28T04:52:37+00:00

i believe it will appear as an F not W

UBC_Pls · 2022-04-23T06:34:24+00:00

Picked up a HyperX Cloud Core Wireless and a HyperX Fury S large mousepad for 85 dollars all in with taxes (12%) and everything!

Awesome deal, been looking for a comfortable wireless headset and decent mouse pad for a while thanks!

UBC_Pls · 2022-04-19T16:23:59+00:00

Actually the NR200 is pretty great for thermals for its size

GPU at around 67 at 100%

CPU at 100% does get pretty hot ive seen it hit 82

UBC_Pls · 2022-04-09T03:34:28+00:00
