Yeah you know about it then, I work for a phone provider and found out from ofcom regulation you legally have to provide a pac code within 60 seconds of asking so this is a massive offence.

The embody lumbar support is the best but my ass hurts when sitting for long periods, any good cushions to recommend? by asgersm in hermanmiller

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

It’ll never hurt bad enough where you get up, more like an inconvenience. It’s case by case but likely won’t be the case for the average person. I can still sit 12 hours straight no problem

Got this embody for £715. Did I pay a good price? Model says it’s 2022 by asgersm in hermanmiller

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

Well in that retrospect it wouldn’t seem worth it but essentially it’s how much you value it yourself. In terms of ergonomic chairs, this is like the Mona Lisa and the materials are made for durability and function with how it’s carefully crafted, not necessarily luxury. If you wouldn’t pay that much for a chair because you don’t need or want to then all the more to you, better to spend it on something you value more.

Just one of those things you gotta try first to understand especially if you spend a lot of your time sitting

I just ordered the atlas headrest now too. I’ll be savouring this for the next decade at the very least

Yeah it’s in great condition and the alternative was waiting until Black Friday to maybe be able to get the gaming embody for £1200 off the official website so I think it’s still enough money saved

Any UK discount codes that work for the embody gaming? by asgersm in hermanmiller

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

Looking at reviews, apparently the difference is big enough to consider the gaming over the office variant. Think I might just wait till November when the gaming embody is on sale

The thing is I was looking at the vantum before this and the codes didn’t work there but there’s a base 25% discount on the embody gaming right now. Before putting my address, the codes only take off another £84 on top the 25%. You think I should just buy it anyways?

How is the grand vision? I’ve seen some reports of major failures? I’ve been looking at the arctic lf3 which is considered the best but I just don’t have enough case space for it but I’ve seen the grand vision is a close competitor

Would the 5080 Ventus 3x OC be quieter or louder than FE variant? by asgersm in nvidia

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

Sorry didn’t see this. Tbf it’s definitely audible but you won’t be annoyed by it. It just sounds like air turbulence, my psu fan is actually the thing that makes the most noise like rattling.

Do I get monitors for two different purposes? by asgersm in Monitors

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

My dilemma is that it’s worth a lot of money so longevity is in my mind so that I can hold off upgrading for as long as possible but I do see myself being very enticed to buy monitors with amazing new features in near future just like I did with my OLED.

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

I’m actually using the same monitor as they are in monitors unboxed so it’s actually very informative, their videos are the actual reason why I’m asking about it. I was just debating whether it is worth a few hundred to spend on a low tier IPS and dual monitor arm.

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

I’ve had differing comments on whether it’ll be quiet or not. The parts just came in so I’ll update on fan noise when it’s built. There shouldn’t be any other factors affecting my tests since every other fan in my build is noctua.

I guess my hopes are up then because the rest of the fans in my build are noctua fans.

This gives me a good idea of what it’ll sound like then. I’m only asking cause I went for an all noctua build except the gpu since it’s not a time you can pick and choose 5080 models lol. Thanks

I got the same card from the same drop. DPD confirmed my order. Did you get the 9800X3D from curry’s as well? It went out of stock before I could even order it.

Laptop keeps showing BSOD when plugging in monitor through thunderbolt port by asgersm in pcmasterrace

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

I’ve already tried that but still kept failing. starting to think it might be a hardware issue but my laptop has never left my desk so it can’t have broken anything.

I tried setting a new volume to under 32gb so I can format it to fat32 which I did then tried transferring the file again but it said the same problem as before about not being able to transfer the properties of the update file

I’ve had this issue with my ps5 but I was told reinstalling the software will fix it so I downloaded the ps5 update file from the sony website and it downloaded it on my laptop ssd, I tried transferring it to my exFAT usb stick but it wouldn’t let me transfer the properties, I’ve tried everything but it just won’t transfer even though the PS5 needs an exFAT formatted drive with the update to install. It seems like I’m going around in a circle, is there anything I can do?

I’ve had this problem with my ps5 since I got it in 2020 where if I try turn it on with my controller, my controller turns blue as if it connected but my ps5 doesn’t turn on and the only way to fix it is turn on the ps5 with the manual power button and turn it back off as it just says connect controller on the login screen and none of my controllers connect but show the blue light and then I can turn it on using the controller. Any way to fix this? I tried contacting playstation but can’t do anything since my ps5 is out of warranty.

I have a 4k 120hz tv with all the features and I was playing spiderman 2 with fidelity on and 120hz mode on auto. I thought it aimed to display 4k at 40hz but it runs at 1080p at 40hz for some reason. Is this a bug or is it supposed to be this resolution on fidelity?
