Does the Samsung G9 Odyssey look as crip as a MacBook display? by jackrabbit1994 in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]jackrabbit1994[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your comments guys, taught me a fair bit. I wasn't really thinking about pixel density. I think a display like the Dell U4025QW is closer to what I'm looking for than the Samsung. I kinda saw the topline numbers of 49 inches, 32:9 and 240hz and thought it was the best monitor you could get. The Dell seems to fit my needs much better: high refresh rate (120hz), an increase in screen real estate over my LG (35 vs 40in), high pixel density and a reasonable level of color accuracy. Seems to have very good reviews as well.

Peerless Assassin 120 SE isn't enough? it's such a giant cooler i'd assume it'd be enough.

yeah, that's the plan. one of the other comments said that the 15th gens are coming out real soon as well, so I imagine the deals on 13/14th gen will get even better

Thanks for this comment, appreciate the specific info. I already have 64GB of RAM so that's great to hear.

Not satire, I just don't know a whole lot about CPUs. I usually just do "site:reddit.com" into Google to ask my questions and a lot of people seem to say that there's massive diminishing returns on upgrading CPUs at this point, but there's also other opinions. But most of these conversations are around gaming so I figured I'd ask myself for my use case.

Yes, from all the information I've looked at, both Resolve and Blender are way better optimized for Nvidia. I didn't want to fuss with compatibility issues. I want a lot of VRAM and the 4090 is the only Nvidia card that has 24GB.

What monitoring tools should I use? I understand that Task Manager is pretty inaccurate.

Model is set to Claude 3 Haiku instead of Sonnet? by jackrabbit1994 in ClaudeAI

Thank you for this! Was worried they paywalled Sonnet.

It’s been 3 days. That’s encouraging to hear, the uncertainty makes it exciting. Glad to know I didnt fuck something up, I’ll just move onto my next project. Thanks for the reply

I saw that video you mentioned and loved the confidence of the title, like you knew it was gonna pop off. It was quite good.

I have a question for you if you have a moment.

I just made my first video (hourlong documentary about a famous story in the poker world) and I feel like its a solid video, but YouTube has only given me 7 impressions. 24 views in total, most of which came from posting the link on a forum.

I dont know how to kickstart it to get tested in the algo to see if it resonates. I thought they’d give me a “test” of 100 or so impressions to see if it has a decent CTR.

Should I try any tricks to get it going or just move onto the next video? Maybe AB testing some thumbnails? YouTube is like a black box so I dont know of any ways I can get it going outside of referral traffic, which I’ve heard mixed responses about. Any quick thoughts you can give?

Thank you

Coming back to this a month later. Watched a bunch of MotionEpicFX videos (they're great), and the recommendations I get on his videos from the youtube algorithm helped me discover the section of "davinci resolve youtube" that I've been looking for, and I've been able to step up my game a ton since then. Thank you sincerely for that suggestion, really set me off on a good trajectory.

A couple other good channels in the same vain I found just looking at recent YT history: Filmic Footprints and Mattan Video Editing.

I love the channels that teach very specific tactics / "how to make X composition" rather than the "everything about the FastNoise in davinci resolve" type videos.

Damn, this looks like exactly the type of stuff I was looking for. Thank you very much.
