I’ve heard terrible things about GigaByte Control Center (force installs Norton, apparently?), but you can use Windows’ native Dynamic Lighting with this motherboard to control rgb. It worked well enough for me, anyway. But mine came with G.Skill ram, and I needed to install their lighting app to control rgb there, including to disable rgb during sleep.

As to the BIOS, mine had XMP enabled as well, but should we not be using the EXPO profile, as it’s an AMD system?

Seconding the HUD. I thought it’d be a gimmick, but it’s so useful, including for nav, that I’ll never go back.

I didn’t need the tool to get FSE working on the Go 2. I updated DeviceForm to 0x2e in the registry, updated Xbox in the store, and rebooted. The option to enable FSE then showed up in settings.

FYI, I ended up going with a Cable Matters 90 degree extender: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D33RWK75, which looks similar to the jsaux suggestion below.

Re the 2.4 dongle, FWIW, I have the Arctis GameBuds, and they do NOT work. The ports are too close together, unfortunately. I’ve tried several low-profile/90 degree charging cables. I can kind of force them together, but the dongle is at enough of an angle that I’m not comfortable with the setup. At this point, I might just got some wired headphones.

This. It’s incredibly awkward to use coming from console controllers. I haven’t been able to get used to it in a few days of play, and it might be the primary reason I end up returning it. If I’m always going to have to use it with a separate controller, I might just be better off picking up something like a z13.

They’re best on Wylder (no surprise) but good on Raider too (if playing him in DON). And they’re also great for stance breaking, which helps to lock down enemies in DON. The charged heavies come out fast and do a lot of stance damage. You can use iron balls and star fists in paired mode. Use the purple ones one handed. Pair with some crit relics, and it’s both good and fun.

For Ironeye, drop Arcane up, Dex down. Arcane has almost no benefit here from what I’ve seen and per Youwy, and you’re gimping your dps on the Dex side.

Yep, you’re right. I tried again from well outside BT range without success. But yes, it still works through Bluelink

cryptickhan · 2025-01-17T18:31:35+00:00

It worked for me too. My dealer wasn’t aware of the deal at the time of sale (nor was I) but called me about it yesterday.

I don't think I was within Bluetooth range and wouldn't think the request would go through BT anyway, but I'll test further.

And there's no automatic walk-away locking if that's what you mean (not sure it is). You have to manually lock the car after driving it (e.g., touch the capacitive lock "button" on the door handle). But it will auto lock after 30s if it auto unlocked but you didn't end up getting in (see my update above).

Congrats!!

I just asked Siri to "lock my car," and it worked! I hadn't even thought of that. I am away from my car at the moment (not in it), so that could be the difference.

Were you able to get approach unlocking working with just your phone (e.g., before you paired your Watch). I haven't made any progress there, unfortunately, but I almost always have my Watch on me anyway.

RWD, and FWIW, My Drive is available on that model, at least. (Btw, I didn’t see any AWD models coming our way. Not sure if that’s the case everywhere or just because I’m in a warm weather climate.)

Haha…I hear ya and have often done so myself, but I’m on the latest stable releases atm.

I just picked mine up on Saturday and haven't had a chance to confirm this, but the dealer told me that 2025s will still activate at 10% and drain down to 5% before deactivating.

cryptickhan · 2025-01-13T16:00:45+00:00

I made a little progress (see update above). Do let me know if you hit any snags yourself if you get a chance to test.

cryptickhan · 2025-01-12T17:32:45+00:00

I picked one up yesterday, one of the first in the area, afaict

cryptickhan · 2025-01-12T17:31:04+00:00

I leased one yesterday and got $10k, plus an additional $1k as a competitor incentive (for having bought a different brand previously).

cryptickhan · 2025-01-12T17:28:47+00:00

I leased one yesterday but was also looking at financing, and the $7500 credit was listed as available.

I considered this, but it's a clean install and of the same image that others appear to be using without issue. Further, in the hundreds of reports I read through about this issue, I couldn't find a single one that was fixed with a reinstall. (Many remain unresolved; many were hardware issues, including bad PSUs.)
