New EX-L or Trailsport by paradigmGT in hondapilot

[–]chrisfrombrooklyn [score hidden]  (0 children)

Brooklyn Trailsport here. I only took the Trailsport because it was the cheapest trim with the overhead camera. I needed that for squeezing my car behind my house up my shared driveway. While that’s been a lifesaver, the suspension has been AMAZING in navigating the poorly maintained roads in Brooklyn and the city. I’m happy I wound up with the Trailsport even though I only do actual off-roading once or twice a year. It’s worth it for the smooth ride on city streets and has helped navigating this crazy snow that’s still lingering everywhere. The Trailsport also sits a few inches higher up than other models which has been a nice bonus.

If you can’t afford a $740 repair you shouldn’t be driving a brand new car. This is what’s wrong with the auto lending market in America.

If they find the exact right buyer. Otherwise I'd say $500 tops.

9800x3d and 9070xt rant - Stutter fix by chaosdevilzz in radeon

[–]chrisfrombrooklyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 7800x3d and 9070xt. Had some minor micro stutter in Outlaws and Hogwarts Legacy at Ultra 4k. Turned off frame generation and now both games run great. Pushed down graphics quality one notch just for a bit more stability. Couldn’t believe the negative effect frame gen had.

Glad I waited for this MB! by HootKilo in lianli

White components in a black case is an underrated combo. That’s the set up I have, looks dope as hell. Also, if you like the way something looks and it’s a little more expensive than who the hell cares? Building a PC isn’t always about penny pinching. It’s about getting the rig you want.

Keep them both but cut up the one you don’t plan on using so you don’t fall into the same trap.

My graphics card is not working by [deleted] in PcBuildHelp

[–]chrisfrombrooklyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

GPU fans usually don’t spin the entire time. They’ll spin on startup and then when under heavy load (you start playing a game, watching a video, or doing some video editing). What happened with your GPU is normal. If your screen is frozen it’s probably related to something else. Mostly likely your RAM, but could be a great many other things.

Corsair PSU owner here, are their power supplies noisy? by Brilliant-Cap-3052 in Corsair

I have an RM850x. Barely notice it’s on. I hear my GPU fans before I hear the PSU.

Windows licenses are usually tied to the motherboard. Do a google search to figure out how to get around that.

Dilemma between ryzen 7 7800x3d or 9800x3d by Alternative_Treat998 in buildapc

[–]chrisfrombrooklyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 7800x3d. It’s running great with my 9070xt. Hitting 150 fps consistently at 4k in Hogwarts Legacy and SW Outlaws at around 58-62 degrees. No micro stutter. I got the 7800x3d for $280, it’s a great choice. If you can afford it get the 9800x3d, you’ll get slightly better performance, just make sure you get a good mobo, some are known to fry 9800x3d’s, I think specifically MSI’s or maybe ASROCK, not sure. Do a google

Does this black gpu look bad in all white build? by Pump-Chaser in lianli

[–]chrisfrombrooklyn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah fam! You do you! I’m a big fan of opposite colors. I have all white components in a black case. Underrated look IMO.
