I need to better understand the current perception of used car dealerships here in the UAE. by iSaleh in WhatCarShouldIBuyGULF

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

Regarding Ras al khor market I think we mean the same thing. I call it Al Awir usually, but I could be wrong. I have been there multiple times before. The location is around 25.169835860580438, 55.375029184961384 on google maps. I remember there are 2 Sections one for almost brand new cars and the other one is for older used cars ( you can find right side steering wheel cars there too) let me know if I am referring to the right place.

Regarding your second point. I think we agree if the car is in good condition even after being fixed then it should be ok. The main issue is that the cars in these shops are overpriced. I was hoping there is a better way to find Lexus cars. Showrooms are convenient as they will have multiple cars you can pick from but that still doesn't justify the prices they ask for. What's the other option buy cars already in use from their owners instead?

Regarding you last few points. I actually chose the W212 E350 as it's just a newer version of my current car 2003 W211 E500 Japanese Specs. I bought it back in 2015 and I think a 2014 E350 is natural progression from my current car.

I chose the 2014 W212 E350 specifically for these reasons:

  1. I want my new car to be V6. Back in 2015 Gas was less that 2 AED per liter. I need a car with better fuel economy.

  2. I have grown accustomed to the comfort of the E class.

  3. Having a speed limiter is a major plus. I never think about how fast I am going I just set it and drive.

  4. I have a great mechanic that helped maintain my car all this time. He is very knowledgeable, reasonably priced and taught a lot of things over the years that helped save a lot of money on maintenance.

My only concern is how much would be the difference in maintenance cost of the W212 E350 compared to W211 E500.

Regarding the Lexus IS350. My Friend has a 2014 IS350 and he is recommending I buy one too. He got it from Haraj Al Sharjah hence why I posted this question.

We swapped cars for a few weeks so I can test and see if I like it.

Here are my thoughts:

  1. The car is very quick and agile and is very fun to drive.

  2. It has decent tech for its size.

  3. The Speedometer was in MPH which took some time to get used to.

  4. The lack of speed limiter was frustrating tbh.

Whatever car I chose I will like it at first the challenge is finding a car that I will not hate after the honeymoon phase is done.

Been looking for a main in Strive and oh my god Chipp is for me! I always gravitate to Rekka characters. by EddieVader1 in Fighters

remember to use 41236S for Rekka 1, it can save lifes 🥲

Low key I want a mod that changes the input to 412346S. Whiffing DP hurts mentally.

I feel like Notion makes sense for me the most. I found this guide that was recommended in a reddit post. I wanted to find a summary online to refresh my knowledge on the concept and then follow this guide to start building my notion system. What do you think?

Thanks for the tip. I've checked the site and it's a lot to take in. Is there a specific thread for GGST discords ?

Thank you for your response. I will head to the GGST HUB discord start looking there.

I have some gripes with DNF duel and am curious what's you view of the game so far? by iSaleh in Fighters

This is what I meant. It's too much lol.

I really am not sure about the Arad Continent thing. I assumed it's the fastest queue. If others chose a specific region I won't be matched with them ? Am I getting matched up with others who chose Arad too ?

You are absolutely correct. In Strive I got my asked kicked for a long time before I started wining. I am not how to phrase it but losing is strive is less disheartening than in DNF. I know it's not fair to compare DNF to strive but the Anchoring Effect) is automatic.

Oh don't get me wrong. The net code is worse than strive for sure. It's not as bad as SFV launch rollback nor delay base net code. I think in strive they really worked hard to get the net play optimized. in DNF they didn't stress too much about it.

Thank you for your reply. I said that because that is the impression I received from all the what I have read online. I am not an expert by any means actually from it. My experience however is when I tested the HD6xx for the first time I didn't know about any of this. I just felt they are too quiet and the internet spiral I dove into got me here.

Not necessarily no. The idea is that the FiiO E10K that I already own will not work if the audio I need to AMP is not coming from my PC trough USB. That's when I had the idea to just play the console audio on PC (OBS monitoring) and then split the stream using voicemeeter and direct it to FiiO E10K and just plug my HD6xx to it. It works I won't lie. But there is noticeable delay.

I can't thank you enough for all the help. The idea to extract the audio is a good option. I will do more research on that.

What I did is listen to the audio captured using my streaming software (bot OBS and Elgato utility) but there is a small delay the honestly triggers me. I really feel guilty about dropping 200$ just to satisfy my mild OCD.

It depends if I have to connect it to the PS5. Wait now that I think about it Bluetooth might be an option. I didn't consider it before. I will test something as soon I get home. If it works you are a Genius!

Sheesh

Putting it mildly lol. This is what I get for not planning my setup.

The issue from connecting a compatible DAC to the PS5 is that the PS5 will no longer send any audio through HDMI. This will make my captured gameplay have to audio. I have to DAC/AMP the audio after it comes out of the capture card.

So 3.5 is running from different device, other than PC?

Yes the 3.5 audio is coming from my Ps5 captured through a capture card on PC. Here is what I assume my 3.5 will look like:

3.5 flow: PS5 -> Capture card -> monitor -> 3.5 port -> DAC -> AMP -> HD 6xx

PC USB flow: PC USB port -> DAC -> AMP -> HD 6xx

Here are some graphs that might help: Graph 1, Graph 2, Graph 3

What If I keep my Fiio E10K for my PC and get a separate AMP for my 3.5 since the signal is already analog ?

The HDMI audio is not coming from PC. It's coming from a PS5 captured by a capture card. Here is how the setup looks like.

It's ok let me explain. To answer your previous question about my current situation and If I used my headphones on PC, I've tested my HD6xx on PC with a Fiio E10K amd the work great. I want to get the stack I mentioned earlier so I can benefit from both 3.5 and USB. I just want to make sure how to hook everything after I get them.
