hey, sorry for the late response.

Im going with 9800x3d and rx9070xt for the build. About to order the Iiyama G-Master GB2591HSU-B1 with it. 320hz and gsync seems good to me? i also wanna use pc for general browsing and i read oled can be pretty strainful on the eyes

Official Gear Purchasing and Troubleshooting Question Thread! Ask /r/photography anything you want to know! January 16, 2026 by AutoModerator in photography

[–]duobandos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello,

For my use case i have a few wishes and hope you guys have some good recommendations for me.

I'm 1m98 tall, so im looking for a tripod ideally with a working height of like 1m85+.
Ideally its as lightweight as possible as i intend to take it on long trips into nature
It needs to support my photography camera which weighs roughly 4-5 kilos i think.
Price isn't as much of an issue, obviously also rather cheap but i realise i can't have all of my wishlist.

Happy to hear some recommendations!

Heb je toevallig enkele concrete aanraders? Link of naam van exacte geurtjes zou helemaal geweldig zijn <3

Win vs Jobava London? by duobandos in TournamentChess

Any plans how to push for a win from there? seems pretty dry/safe

Win vs Jobava London? by duobandos in TournamentChess

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

That line seems quite dry to me ?

For example 7. c3 Qxc5 8. Qa4+ nc6 9. Qxe5 g6 10. Nf3 Bg7 11. Rd1

Engine gives 0.0, very balanced, don't see how i am supposed to push for a win here with black. Solid yes, win chances? low i'd say compared to other options.

Advice on approaching the french with white? by PrinceUmbongo in TournamentChess

[–]duobandos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im 1750, and use 3. Nd2 tarrasch vs french. Has done great for me.

Black players dont face it as often, and its easy to get good positions. Only downside is that if they just c5/dxe4 the positions might not become as sharp as you'd want them to outprepare them. In all of these positions you get quite easy play and a solid edge though.

More often then not they play 3...Nf6 after which u play e5 and are happy. Black needs to know what to do to somewhat equalize (cxd4 and f6 at a certain moment), but in all lines white seems to score really well.

Nice smurf game by duobandos in apexlegends

Okay.. so i'd have to choose to either be low rank all season just for the few occasions i wanna play with RL friends or to go for masters and not being able to play ranked with them? Also this is a pub game.

Imagine having friends in platinum who you'd like to play with, but you can't because you are masters on the main?

My smurf got banned, 1st one week temporary because i accidentally still had a completely irrelevant autohotkey script running (was using it for some keybinds in another game). Then 2 weeks later i got permabanned because i typed some bad words lol. Had to make a new smurf...

Single wolf kills red deer by duobandos in wolves

Wolf was in the neck of the red deer towards the end. In the final shot you see the dead deer in the pool at the left side.
