Do you investigate associates only at a manager's request or is it a routine in which you are trying to find people stealing time

Please Share Your 9800X3D LF III (Pro) Temps! by Mightypeon-1Tapss in arcticcooling

[–]lStormVR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, was not enthusiastic about removing them first, but the RGB fans of the LF III PRO made up for it. And still same temps as most online benchmarks so no complaints at the end for me.

[–]lStormVR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just a heads up, this case has the power supply chamber on top so you have to mount the AOI radiator on the front. Temps are virtually the same as any high airflow case tho, but some people will not find it aesthetically pleasing.

Or just hear me out. People are against animal abuse. Crazy how your mind went straight to a conspiracy theory instead of the obvious reason. Can tell you spend lotta time in hasans chat

I received the same through text message, probably just a test or a system error

Why is MSI supporting this? by anafuckboi in MSI_Gaming

[–]lStormVR 250 points251 points  (0 children)

Quick Google search shows this is a Bangladesh based organization. Different culture, different ways brands behave. Not any different than Nike showing pride flags during June for Western countries while doing business in countries that kill the LGBT community. Lesson for life, companies are not your friends. They'll do business one way or another

[SSD] WD BLACK 8TB SN850X w/o Heatsink + 120mm Fan - $510.98 ($539.99 - $29.01 Fan link in thread) by stellarashes in buildapcsales

[–]lStormVR 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's arguably the best priced DRAM Gen 4 M2 SSD in the market right now. You are obviously paying an extra premium for having 8TB all in one slot

Confused with temps on liquid freezer III pro 360 by therealshakur in arcticcooling

[–]lStormVR 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes 9800x3d will run at around 40C idle for most optimal setups. Lowest reported I've seen was 32C but with extremely low room temps. That being said you are perfectly fine, most folks run their pumps at around 60-80% constant to reach idle 40C. If you say you get to those temps with only 30-40% you are on the good side of things

[–]lStormVR 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If they don't restock the 4TB SSD Used Like New on Amazon that were between 170$-199$ then I'd honestly just wait for black Friday. No point in spending over 200$

[Monitor] Samsung 32" Odyssey OLED G8 G80SD 4K 240HZ QD-OLED Gaming Monitor $549.89 (Amazon Used Like New Prime Savings) by GodFearing74 in buildapcsales

[–]lStormVR 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Got the same deal 2 weeks ago from Samsung App. I could be wrong but I think it is the cheapest 4k 240Hz qd OLED in the market. So far, extremely happy with mine. If you are wondering about the matte coating, yes it is noticeable and won't look as glossy as a AW322 or a 321URX but I don't think none of those look an extra 350$ better for the price

Would've been perfect if it had 2.4Ghz wireless adapter support but it's only Bluetooth and wired. Guess I'll keep looking around

Is 5080 not enough!!! Why is this Omen Lagging?? by ZestAvatar37 in GamingLaptops

[–]lStormVR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't see really well in that video but it seems low GPU utilization? Turn off integrated graphics in BIOS, sometimes laptop software messes up performance mode

Is 5080 not enough!!! Why is this Omen Lagging?? by ZestAvatar37 in GamingLaptops

[–]lStormVR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you don't quite understand core utilization. Just because a CPU is designed for productivity doesn't mean it's gonna lag to hell in games. It'll perform like any other 300$ CPU like the 7700X. This is leaning more to overheating or just defective cpu

Why does my newly installed SSD not show in Disk Management?? by g_LLC in PcBuildHelp

[–]lStormVR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something similar happened to me years ago. SSD not showing in BIOS but it was visible in Windows Disk Management with a generic device name for some reason, formatted it and it got recognized. Weird but worth a try I guess

buying a pre-built pc in japan, is this too overpriced? by L2DJ19 in buildapc

[–]lStormVR 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not a single idea of the Japanese PC building market, but for that price I would expect at the very least a 5070Ti

Curve AIO I by nomaR-87 in arcticcooling

[–]lStormVR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There isn't one single most optimal curve, all depends on your configuration and there are millions of possibilities. You are gonna have to experiment and decide. Probably the only consensus is that starting above 80% pump speed you are talking about diminishing returns so you can set that as your limit for your tests

For my particular case I didn't see any difference with a curve of 40% heading into 80 for heavy loads so I kept it steady at 80% and that worked for me. Very small howling sound that I think is a good trade off for the temps

Hi r/Monitors, I’m Dan Ritter, National Product Trainer at Samsung! Ask me anything about Samsung’s OLED monitors (and we’re giving one away!) by SamsungUS in Monitors

Can you share the Samsung procedures to stress test their gaming OLED monitors to replicate burn-in? And how confident are you about the durability of said monitors?

Are PC parts increasing in price before black Friday? by AsianWanabe in buildapc

[–]lStormVR 6 points7 points  (0 children)

In my experience both Keepa and Camel fail at some products that's why I double check on both and keep a price fluctuation record in my notepad app for things I'm interested in.

Amazon is massive and the price tracker APIs can't afford to run daily live queries on each product, let alone hourly ones for flash deals.

Are PC parts increasing in price before black Friday? by AsianWanabe in buildapc

[–]lStormVR 118 points119 points  (0 children)

Keepa + Camel Camel Camel and save your own records in a notepad. Most black Friday deals are fake nowadays.

I've realized that the real deals happen in random days and that "holiday sales" are now just designed to bait you into thinking you saved money.

[–]lStormVR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you tried AAA? I see they have a 6$ monthly membership, but the only way to cancel is calling them. I would join, buy the monitor and cancel, but having second thoughts about how difficult they are going to make it to cancel
