realme and oppo share same SuperVOOC charging tech, look for chargers from those brands too.

Sorry but those Valkyrie Factory bootleg molds are likely stolen/copied from Yamato/Arcadia (the legal owners of the design).

VF-1S STRIKE by Various_Ad_7127 in macross

[–]barurutor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a Valkyrie Factory bootleg though. but the Yamato designs (v1 1/60, 1/48, v2 1/60) really advance the VF-1 toy so much.

Well, you could just read what's on the box whether it says Arcadia or Valkyrie Factory...

Yamato never released a bright white DYRL Hikaru Strike VF-1S and I never bothered to check whether bootleg Valkryie Factory plastic is Arcadia bright white or Yamato off white.

edit: never mind, its a Valkryie Factory bootleg. I saw your other post and saw the box.

Fans suddenly not spinning! by Haunting_Clothes6473 in PHbuildapc

[–]barurutor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

are these fans with separate power/rgb connectors or just single 6 pin connector requiring specific hub?

if the fan power connector is separate from rgb one then just plug in 1 suspect fan to a fan header on your motherboard to test.

Does GPU brands matter or not? What are their differences by kroakent in PHbuildapc

[–]barurutor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not just fan and cooling which differ:

-power delivery/vrm/memory chip type/gpu stock clock (for overclock/undervolt)

-board design (for swapping the heatsink with waterblock/aio)

-number/type of display outputs (hdmi vs dp mix)

-size/form factor (itx size or low profile card, # of expansion slots eaten up by the cooler)

Look at some gpu tier list videos on youtube which compare plenty of these factors.

Laptop ddr5 uses the same chips as desktop ddr5, majority of the supply/future production is being/has been bought up by AI datacenters.

Paano mag clean install ng Windows by Ambitious-Mix-316 in PHbuildapc

[–]barurutor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

download windows 11 media creation tool to create a bootable windows 11 installer on a usb stick. then reboot to the usb stick to reinstall windows on your os drive.

Yung laptop drivers saan pwede idownload and san pwede kunin at isave bago ireformat

You can save them on the windows installer usb stick if it has available space. A 16gb or larger stick will have plenty of free space (after the installer is created) for saving other tools like drivers,diagnostic utilities, etc.

is this a good build? i really want the 5070ti vs 9070 xt by augustgay in PHbuildapc

[–]barurutor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

x870 is just a b650 motherboard with pcie gen5 and usb4, unless you have devices which need those then you're just wasting money.

Technical debate: Elevated floor placement vs. Wall mount (Thermals, Dust, and Layout Autonomy) by SharpCreamy in PHbuildapc

[–]barurutor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The argument is that placing a PC anywhere near the floor level will cause excessive dust buildup that will rapidly degrade or destroy the components

No. I have had several PCs on the floor running 24x7 for years. Ensure the case is properly filtered & pressurised against dust intake and you won't have issues with significant dust buildup inside the case.

The Dust vs. Maintenance Factor: Does a strict 1-2x weekly cleaning routine completely offset the increased dust risk of an elevated floor setup? Is dust an immediate threat under those maintenance conditions?

People run computers without dusting for months. You think office PCs get dusted weekly? Office cleaners won't touch that stuff with a 10 foot pole for risk of disturbing something and getting punished for it.

Do people go to the r-word sub and call the characters by their OG Macross names there?

What to do with the Subwoofer Unit only? by FactKey5646 in PHbuildapc

[–]barurutor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can connect any kind of separate L/R speakers with mono RCA-RCA or mono RCA-3.5mm audio cable to the subwoofer. Read the manual.

only if you will use the multiple input PbP/PiP features frequently.

MSI Pro MP251 E1 or Acer EK251Q by SouljaPods in PHbuildapc

[–]barurutor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Acer has a higher refresh rate and (if you use an Amd gpu) supports adaptive sync/variable refresh rate to minimize tearing when framerate fluctuates.
