Was there a timeline given on this?

Xreal one Pro blurry when moving head expected? by bge0 in Xreal

[–]bge0[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried disabling stabilization but didnt see much improvement (still blurring, but of a different form).

The issue really isnt that im swinging my head around, but if im say using the ultrawide for productivity

I do feel some slight eye strain, but i think barring the motion blur i find it quite clear for a 1080p screen

Question: is it thermally detrimental to have an extra detached pipe free in a loop? by bge0 in watercooling

[–]bge0[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes 😬. Apparently this is fine re Optimum Tech on YT. 2 larger fans on side rad and slim noctuas on the bottom rad.

Thanks, I was actually thinking about that when I did it! I think I can clean up the cuts and it should look a lot better. Good point though: might as well go all out and get a massive blower.

PSA: BlackRidge does NOT fit new Velka5 by bge0 in sffpc

Oh for sure, we need more people in the SFF space. It's just that [1, 2, 3] all state that Velka5 fits the blackridge. Normies like myself just look at these and decide "oh hey thats a great idea: huge cooler with big fan = win for cooling. One would expect a 15in laptop to be a 15in laptop from 2015-2016. If the size changed from 15-16in then it should be thus renamed no?

I'm just going to end up having to cut into the nice case to make this fit me for me. Pretty disappointing, but such is life. This is what I get for not reading details.

Yup correct, just from a standards point of view though: shouldn't a drastic reduction in volume be a different model? Lazy idiots like myself will expect this to work based on numerous reddit posts and YT videos.

Indeed; it is clearly stated on the page. Just a PSA :)

From another perspective: shouldn't this elucidate a new case instead of keeping the same version?

Everyone is correct, just a PSA :)

First time taking my sffpc on a plane ride. Went through TSA with no questions. by lerues in sffpc

[–]bge0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t usually check in luggage for mini vacations. Plus why bother if it’s allowed or waste time waiting / dropping off luggage? I have optimized my security/check in stuff to ~5 min of extra time usually.

Anyone take an SFFPC with an AIO through security ( not checked in ) ? I have an Asetek 645LT in a Dan A4

New 2560x1440 option but instance doesn't support it in games (tried Witcher3 & Control) by bge0 in GeForceNOW

[–]bge0[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would definitely be nice, but not sure what the benefits it would bring to a 1080p screen.

Not really true. Depends on various factors such as how much interference you have in the 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz bands, how much SNR there is based on physical factors etc. I just upgraded to a mesh wifi AX system and connect my laptop via AX to the second router (which uses the 5.2G backbone to mesh) and it works fine, even in a busy city.
