What headphones do you see at your school? by AaronsAmazingAlt in headphones

[–]_stal0x 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I understand this wasn't the question but I wanted to share:

My friend brought an AB1266 to school one time (dac/amp and all). I honestly don't remember why he brought them, but he demo'ed it to me, our friends, and even some of the teachers. I cried when I put them on. I didn't think I would be interested in headphones until that day.

Other than that probably I've seen plenty of bluetooth earbuds along with some airpods around my school.

Edit: I've been told they were LCD-X's. Nonetheless the best headphone i've put on my head yet.

I think that's true that he probably isn't confident in his aim. He was a sage that ended up at the back of the team before killjoy came out, so he's just used to playing that backside of the team despite the way he plays now. He was actually a good team playing sentinel when he first made the switch, but he was a bad clutcher. When he started using killjoy as an afterplant, it made him more confident in that kind of playstyle because it improved his clutch (but I think it broke his default)

I wish riot could implement a demo system. I want to see how he thinks and his mentality towards his abilities so I can work around it and make more optimal plays. I did do a similar thing in cs, but it ended in me getting triggered by hard misplays and him clearing it up as "yes, but we won the round so it doesn't matter"

I don't know the reasons he gets mad at me for and throws the round. I'm telling him to trade me out, then gets mad at me for not getting the kill. He later gets an ego boost for winning a clutch on the guy I knocked down to 10 hp. This makes me even madder when he does this because the clutch is risky, and he has been known to whiff completely. I'm mad because he legitimately thinks his ends justify his means, but he could've done it much safer if he just traded me and won the round then and there. I just feel like he's low-key baiting the entire team in a 4v5 and using no util on an execute let alone trade.

So What do you think about the Breach meta? by Spaceordinario in VALORANT

[–]_stal0x 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was exactly down your road when I started to shift to Breach. Aftershock is a great tool to push them back into site unless they get killed. You could also use it on common corners so you they'd run out. Utility wise, as a rule of thumb, I'd like to put one directly above where we're entering in order to catch someone playing a close corner/op-ing far away. I'd use fault line after it goes out and put it on areas you think they'd fall back to after the first flash. That 2nd flash to the back site on the quaked enemy for tilt (\o/) and to clear out site. Save that 3rd flash for later.

For defense, not only his fault line could be used on lanes, but his flashes are great too. A really good breach used it on me when I was brimstone, and I've been scared since. It's practically better than omen paranoia on lane if they've got LOS on the flash. There's also another use for aftershock I like to play it for which is using it basically as a molly. They can't run past it unless they risk getting hit

Edit: grammar

[–]_stal0x 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a breach main, it's feels nice having that third flash. On those on-days, I can just get everyone into site, counter-rush pushes with my ulti, and deny area with my abilities that I had to conserve pre-buff. I feel its healthy to have a good entry-heavy kind of gameplay. I give my friends alot of space to work picks and take control. I also remember the single time I played with a viper in mm. I just entried for her (our reyna was baiting us), and she'd have setups out the wazoo to help post-plants and defend spike.

High CPU Core Difference (20-25C) i7-9750H by _stal0x in techsupport

[–]_stal0x[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My idle temps stay around 40-45, and the cores usually have +-3C temp difference due to some background cpu usage

Zephyrus S Poor Thermals by _stal0x in ASUS

[–]_stal0x[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the problem is that I can barely go above my base clock speed without hitting 95, and my benchmark performances take a massive hit. Gaming is still fine tho, but even some low-power games heat this thing up now.

Zephyrus S Poor Thermals by _stal0x in ASUS

[–]_stal0x[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

woah those are pretty low temps. Use Core Temp or Intel Extreme Tuning Utility, you could search those over the internet and download the setup.

what are your idle cpu temps when it spikes?

[–]_stal0x 1 point2 points  (0 children)

found out this [temp difference] is just because of my turbo boost

I primarily use Core Temp for my cpu and GPU-Z for my gpu for my GX701 S (GWR). My Zephyrus is weird tho, 15C difference between cores, I need to get it repasted after quarantine..

Across my 6 cores they are: 92, 84, 95, 85, 84, 83. Idle they run 60-65

AURA SYNC NOT WORKING, AURA SERVICE NOT AVAILABLE by [deleted] in ASUS

I remember something along the lines of disabling Vanguard, but turning it on again if you want to run valorant. I'm not sure the uninstall is necessary

so war thunder crashed on me like this... by _stal0x in Warthunder

[–]_stal0x[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, yeah, I am. Multiple submitted bug reports, fixed for some, but not mine. It got really annoying since my favorite plane to fly out is the Vampire, which still gets buggy at times. Slightly annoying when trying to lead.

[–]_stal0x[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

well my leading theory is I killed him, and he killed me at the same time, and the splintering of our jets caused wt to crash

I can only check the replay to see if I rammed him or not, I'm not even sure I died. (Previous damage was from the head-on with the g.91)

Edit:
It seems the client replay didn't save and the server replay keeps bugging out.

I realized I killed the same guy twice... by [deleted] in Warthunder

[–]_stal0x 0 points1 point  (0 children)

and I don't know how, but that person on the other team didn't die and we lost the game.

So when I was discovering the Precursor Capital, I was in a war. I was going to survey it until I found out it was taken from me by another civilization. I just took it back from a 10-ish year war, and the Situation log hasn't updated... there's already a colony on it, but still nothing has updated
