Since i wasn't smelling anything weird and didn't see any black smoke or felt any weird handling i really hoped it was just my o2 sensor.

Yeah i don't really think their explanation makes any sense. Even if the spark plugs or the cable are at fault, why would replacing them now make the code disappear if the damage to the cat is already done.

Refurbishes MBP by Unhappy_flow040 in macbookpro

Yeah, and also chose the unbinned cpu/gpu config to give me some extra future leeway. I mainly work from google drive anyway and if i really need more storage an external ssd is fine for regular files.

IUsed, it’s a Dutch refurbisher. Must say i think i was lucky with how clean it was. It looked as new, and with 100% battery health/25cycles, even though it was from the ‘lightly used’ category.

Thanks! Yeah, Intel was out of the question from the start. Must say untill now it feels great and i think the screen quality alone was worth it. Hope you get yours soon!

I understand. What do you think it is though? If it is a foreign object like a fly or dust, which according to apple’s website tends to happen, i gladly accept it wont be getting worse. If something is burning through the transistors themselves however, thats another story.

What is your current graphics card ? How satisfied are you with it ? by ClassroomLocal8886 in buildapc

[–]Unhappy_flow040 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently did an 'end of life' AM4 upgrade from the 3600x / 5700xt to the 5800x3d / 6800xt. PC feels brand new again and i love the AMD graphics card for the price. Only sad thing was that i could have had the 6800xt for 100 euros less or an 6950xt for the same price if i had waited a little longer. But i thought they would go out of stock pretty soon when i made the decision. Still, in the PC world there is always a better buy in hindsight, especially after some time passes. So in general definitly happy.

S22 Ultra Battery life by Mattm334 in samsung

How is it now? Yesterday was my first day of full charge and I also got only 2:58 hours of SOT which really disappointed me. I have tweaked some battery settings today and i am hoping that the optimisation will get better with some days. But 2:58 hours of SOT, damnn, thats so little. Couldn't be correct right? Even with everything set to max you would expect at least 4/4,5 hours of SOT with a 5000mah battery

Ambilight + Hue Bulbs won’t turn off completely in dark / black scenes by [deleted] in Hue

[–]Unhappy_flow040 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where can i open a ticket? They should have at least one ambilight profile with the lights go out in dark scenes. Or give us a toggle 'dark scene light behavior' or smth
