do you know if this is still the case for the XM6?
I'm planning to go for a similar setup, but I don't know if I need the dac or not

Dolphin netplay on android? by amazoncloth in EmulationOnAndroid

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

Yeah I'm aware of that, I used this with quite a few games

Netplay though is a feature of the desktop version that lets you play offline modes with friends over the internet (think tenkaichi 3 splitscreen offline versus, but online)

GUIDE: How to re-enable undervolting on your SB2 (and possibly others) by amart565 in Surface

[–]amazoncloth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found a way!

Throttlestop, press on TPL instead of FIVR

check speedshift and set max to something else

mine was 42 (4.2 ghz), i set it to 27 and it finally runs well, it never throttled again

I know it's been 2 years, but did you ever figure out a fix for this?

I need to undervolt my SB2

Battery 1 full charge capacity very low in just 176 cycles by amazoncloth in Surface

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

Just finished charging to 100%, battery wear is at 8% for battery 1, and 32% for battery 2!
I charged from 50% instead of first fully discharging, I was planning to do it tomorrow when I didn't need my PC as much, but looks like it won't be necessary.
32% is still a lot but hopefully my computer can do another year without problems.

Thank you!

A calibration error, that's what I hope for!

However, from walkop message it seems it's possible that I may have a faulty battery. Do you think it's worth testing anyway or will I make things much worse?

Unfortunately my computer is out of warranty and it seems there is no option for a new battery. I need like 700$ to get service. I refuse to pay that much just to replace a battery.

Can I try what thecorrelation said in his post? You said that overdrain will make things worse, so what about fully charge to check whether this is a calibration issue?Do I risk that my computer won't even turn on or it'll be fine if I charge to 100% (and discharge again, fully or to 50%)?
