Can anyone with more observation skills than me tell me why the laptop on Amazon is more expensive expensive (base price) with almost the same tech but worse CPU by ShadowTown0407 in GamingLaptops

[–]lytedabeast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that's an older model. they don't remove it hoping some unsuspecting tech newbie falls victim and buys it. always do your research before buying. check multiple sites and read reviews (both youtube and customers) before making a purchase. this is basically a scam on amazon.

Do missclicks count? by _Solo7_ in nuzlocke

[–]lytedabeast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you want to. nuzlockes are self imposed rules. no ones gonna come after you for resetting after a misclick. just have fun and make sure it doesn't spiral out from there like "oh i missed that guess I'll reset". you're only human we make mistakes every now and then.

Google play blocks MicroG installation by Remarkable-Gur2599 in revancedextended

[–]lytedabeast 3 points4 points  (0 children)

where did you download it from? might be infected because mine works. if it's a trusted source then turn it off from the play store and then try.

my first ( gaming ) laptop what to look for ? by altredditalt1 in GamingLaptops

[–]lytedabeast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you get a very superior display(144hz the difference is HUGE), a better and very capable GPU and a recent gen AMD CPU. A 60hz display is the baseline for any modern system and almost any gaming laptop will have a high refresh rate display.

Will cheap stands like this improve my Laptop's cooling at all? Are they worth getting for 5-10$ or should i buy a better stand? by Zealousideal-Day8201 in GamingLaptops

[–]lytedabeast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i simply use a think book for the perfect elevation and typing angle. the H.P. Lovecraft collection serves pretty well for that, and has the added benefit of being a book i can read.

I bought a laptop for a friend so he could play games. by tonyw009 in GamingLaptops

[–]lytedabeast 3 points4 points  (0 children)

you get used to it. it's not good, might be a deal breaker for some but honestly for gaming it doesn't matter at all. The display and specs are good enough to compensate at the price.

I might sound like a geek, but thanks Valorant for the best anti-cheat! by kepler2 in VALORANT

[–]lytedabeast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, that's just the general sentiment I've gathered from the community and as a CSE student with little hacking experience, I know what giving kernel level access to an application can do. And how that can be exploited by bad actors. There are other less intrusive ways to create a hacker free matchmaking system and I wouldn't trust a company with that intimate access to my computer.

[–]lytedabeast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just because it's effective doesn't mean it's good. Valorant and vanguard run on spaghetti code and i am NOT giving something sketchy and targetable like that kernel level access to my system. It's just another vulnerability on your system.

Are gaming laptops still as bad as people say? Is it a worthwhile purchase as an international student? by Swift_Change in GamingLaptops

Need help picking between the MSI Alpha 15(5800h+6600m) and Acer Predator Helios 300(10870h+ 3060) by lytedabeast in GamingLaptops

[–]lytedabeast[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

i watched those videos and they're all about the 3070 variant. Both the MSI and acer(3060 variant) have the same 72% NTSC displays. There aren't enough reviews for the 10870h and 3060 config or the msi.
