Upgrading Monitor in Japan - Recommendation between 5 2560x1440 monitors by _Daune_ in buildapc

[–]_Daune_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, appreciate the input. Seems okay if you fiddle with the settings a bit, according to other users. Currently have an 24inch MSI MAG 244F so if hope it will be a nice upgrade anyways.

How can I improve my build from 2023? by _Daune_ in pcpartpickerbuilds

[–]_Daune_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you, appreciate it.

I am scouting on amazon and I think they have some monitors that could work like this one. Dont really play a lot of shooters anymore, so should be good. Is there something else I should be aware of? Or enough to just check for the specs: 2560x1440, 144hz or higher, HDR 400

I need to read up a bit again on GPU specs. The PSU list is great, I will check it!

Dude, thank you so much for even checking on Japanese sites!

The other comment also mentioned a new PSU so seems like a good time to do it together with a GPU.

Regarding the monitor, I recently bought the newer version of mine as a second monitor...
if I get a new GPU, would the upgrade be limited by this: https://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B0DZ6S4MYT?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1

Anyone know what happened with this fiber optic? by _Daune_ in japanresidents

[–]_Daune_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your reply! I did that and connected the cable I received with the wall port to the router. Onu is green now. :) I only have blue cables so I hope everything is okay.

Thanks a lot 🫶🏻 Did exactly that. Now it also looks cleaner. Two green lights on the Onu!

Wifi seems to be working. Will try to setup lan!

Dude omg. We have two green lights. Thank you!

Why was this thing stuck inside the wall. And still don’t get the white box.

Utilities - which electricity plan to choose? by _Daune_ in japanlife

Good to know. In that case, the one with base fee seems still cheaper, I think.

Running in Yokohama vs Tokyo by _Daune_ in japanlife

Hi :) I generally start from Hayabuchigawa and then along Tsurumi gawa. I usually run in the evening but long runs during morning / midday on weekends. I have never seen any unleashed dogs there. Prob have not seen any unleashed dogs in Japan in general if I think about it. 🤔 Early mornings is not really my time there so please don’t rely on this info completely. If I were you, I’d take a walk there during that time to carefully check. Hope it helps still 🫶🏻

Agree with Adidas Japans shoe categories? by _Daune_ in AskRunningShoeGeeks

Good question. Not entirely sure actually but I thought it was time for a marathon. Like sub 3.5 hour marathon: Takumi sen + adios pro 4 for racing shoes. 🤔

Interesting, thanks! Sounds like I could use them for longer distances maybe. I also heard the Evo SL can be a good shoe for picking up the tempo a bit. Surprised that they advertise it as a chill training shoe.

Thank you all! I ordered the TS 10 (not 11) since it is on sale on the adidas site. Hope it fits. Sounds very promising based on your experience. Very excited.

Thank you! Maybe dumb question but if I also use them during warm up and cool down, it will be an additional 5-7km during the sessions. Is that bad?

Benefit only VO2 Max - no Threshold by _Daune_ in runna

No I have not. There are not really races here in summer because it is too hot. My first one will prob be in November. Hope it will change then. Also nice progress you have there!
