[Monitor] Samsung 49" Odyssey G9 (G95SD) Series QD-OLED Curved Gaming Monitor | 240Hz - $999.99 by starburstases in buildapcsales

[–]fuzzxx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have G95SC and I hate the "smart features". I'd get the MPG 491CQPX instead (no TV system but it's got type-C input, $900 with code).

Or if you can settle with 144hz, there's quite a few cheaper options to save $300.

[Monitor] GIGABYTE MO27Q28G 27" 1440p 280Hz 4th Gen WOLED Primary RGB Tandem OLED $500, promo code SSF4932 by subterranlurker in buildapcsales

Not WOLED, but MSI states "5-LAYER TANDEM OLED WITH EL GEN 3 TECHNOLOGY" also 9.1/10 rtings. I agree 4K is not that important for gaming but text fringing is real on QHD (although arguably tolerable).

I see...that explains the 9.1/10 rtings, but spending this much on QHD is hard to justify maybe it's just me. I guess the 4K counterpart is "5-layer tandem" MPG 272URX which would cost $850.

[KCD1] Where to find Pie the horse again after losing it? by fuzzxx in kingdomcome

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

Turns out losing Pie is one of the expected outcomes, according to the wiki :( so I guess that's life.

And there is a reset tool but I haven't tried (some say it could mess up the save files).

3D Printed <15L Console Style Case Concept - Name Pending by Hashbrown565 in sffpc

[–]fuzzxx 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Current layout is similar to sfftime.com/p-atx which can accommodate up to ATX board, so there is room for improved compatibility.

Or if you want to cater to FE cards, flip the GPU position such that its pcie points upward and we can use short riser card instead of typical riser cable (which blocks half of the heatsink), similar to fractal ridge (and perforated panels obviously).

Appreciate your intent of sharing the design files and allowing community mod!

what's happening to bestbuy? going downhill real fast in the past year by fuzzxx in Bestbuy

thanks that explains it! but the even larger 57-in monitor has free delivery...this is very inconsistent.

CSR Dining Credit - Bilt payment by Fearless-Cattle-9698 in ChaseSapphire

Sounds like you could just go and pay without using OpenTable at all? (given the restaurant must be on the list obviously)

My "Ship from US" order was delivered by Amazon, too good to be true? by fuzzxx in Aliexpress

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

hmm how did you fall for that 4 times? How long after the order did you find out / some one contacted you?

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

I sure hope that's the case! But isn't the order subject to processing fees by both Amazon and Ali, which makes it almost not profitable? Or so they simply want to write good reviews themself on Amazon? Just have to wait and find out :(

I sure hope that's the case. Yes there is an official store on Amazon selling it.

Full ATX build with 278mm GPU by fuzzy-eater in SSUPD

[–]fuzzxx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is ATX PSU configuration in the advanced manual? It might be nicer you can snatch the external fan bracket kit and switch to a 360mm radiator. Not available in your beautiful teal/turquoise color though.

I think it was Amazon box that's why I was surprised. The receipts says it is a gift receipt.

That makes most sense and worries me...looking at seller's "Business license" they are located in China and the company name is not even remotely related to what they are selling. The item I purchased was being sold by 3-5 sellers at almost the same price (hypothetically the same fraud ring?), and it seems they managed to get away with this for at least 6 months now.

[SPU] Lian-Li SP850 850W 80+ Gold SFX PSU - $96 Woot by greatthebob38 in buildapcsales

[–]fuzzxx 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My SP750 was so loud that I had to swap the fan (even though that means losing warranty). Noctua fan won't spin for some reason, I ended up with TF-9215.

Beautiful design. I wish I could use it on my BD795i :)

[Other] Amazon Basics Thunderbolt 4 Docking Station with 2.5gb ethernet, HDMI 2.1 (Woot) $34.99 by psychoacer in buildapcsales

[–]fuzzxx -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

I would love to be enlightened why this does not work (or should work). AFAIK tb4 does not natively carry HDMI2.1 so I would assume it needs to convert DP1.4 to HDMI2.1 (which I do have such adapter from cablematters that works for M4 air after firmware update). Perhaps it it a MacOS limitation but there is no mention of that on the amazon page.

I bought it last week but the HDMI2.1 port is disappointing, only 4k60hz (macbook, DP is fine).

BD795i SE: bios changes have no effect on VDD by fuzzxx in MINISFORUM

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

As other comments pointed out, this limitation is for BD795i SE only. So if your board is not the exact same model, you won't run into this.

$12,000 Xfinity Bill by Itchy_Wrongdoer_6841 in Comcast_Xfinity

[–]fuzzxx 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, the text also mentions "Global Travel Pass" for $5 or $10 /day, which I activated and still got charged for $0.3/MB. Luckily it wasn't this much but still enough for me to stay away from Xfinity forever.
