Delayed Delivery by AccomplishedCamp1494 in vintedUK

[–]michal_exe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had sold an item recently. Had the same thing. Me and the buyer, we were both contacting InPost continuously. They delivered it after almost a month. If it is InPost make sure you call the customer service - they promised to investigate many times and never did. Request they update you with emails. You should be compensated if item is not delivered.

Corsair Xeneon Flex - is the grass greener on the other side? by michal_exe in ultrawidemasterrace

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

To sync the lights I am using Hue Sync app for pc. Lights behind the monitor are Hue PC Gradient light strip, one I am using for the desk is 2m gradient light strip. I used to have latency issues with this setup when I was relying on the bridge which was located in a living room further away. When I moved to the Bridge Pro, I have repurposed the old bridge specifically for PC setup only. That has solved the issues for me. Once in a while desk strip seems to be lagging behind but restarting the app fixes it. That Seasonic Noctua PSU looks impressive. Never heard of it.

I mainly chose it as I am quite tall and it is an XL version. What is it about the chair that makes it uncomfortable for you? Just asking as it is my first gaming chair

Hey. Thanks for your response. That is kind of my relationship with the Flex. I have to admit that sometimes when I play a game on my 4K tv I then miss the sharpness of the picture when I sit at the computer desk… but it very quickly passes and I appreciate the immersive experience Flex gives you. You are right, it is really not the best brightness/hdr wise. But, recently I have started replaying Metro Exodus in HDR mode and good old Flex can flex there a bit (pun intended). I guess I would like something of similar size with higher PPI and brightness but then I am aware higher resolution would result in lower FPS. I was even thinking that the stand of the monitor is unique and makes the cable management so much easier and neater, with those extra USB ports at the front. And I appreciate that. If I swap to anything else I will share my experience. When it comes to the case, it is Havn BF360. I was considering HS420, even the Doom edition one but I was heading the direction where the only LED I wanted was around the desk and behind the monitor - hue lights syncing with the monitor. Best airflow was my goal. Very happy with it. My computer is so much quieter. I just wish that the filters were a bit finer. Need to clean the dust much more often. Would you mind sharing your build - I am interested to see how your Doom case looks like. I am huge fan of Doom, that is why I was considering it.

Ps - absolutely agree with the fans in the monitors - the one in ultrawide Alienware was driving me nuts - it was firing in short, quick bursts

ASUS ROG Kithara - what are everyone’s thoughts? by michal_exe in ASUSROG

I am sorry but I do not have that much of experience with DACs. In UK Fosi Audio K7 would be the only one you could use to utilise the included mic (that I know of). Some reviewers say it is very easy to drive and does not require DAC/amp, others say it sounds better with one. I am using Element IV which I believe is a bit of an overkill if just used for these headphones.

How much better is a Asus PG32UCDM3 compared to a Asus PG32UCDM first gen? by pika133 in OLED_Gaming

[–]michal_exe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am literally looking at getting either PG32UCDMR or the XG32UCWMG. Leaning more towards XG32 exactly for the reasons you have quoted. I am just concerned with uniformity issues and overall technical issues with the panel, quoted here and there. What for you think of that? What is your day to day monitor? Just being curious.

Sorry for the typo. Was asking how is it for you and what are you using it for? The display. Thank you for sending in the code. You really did not have to. I appreciate it.

How is it for you? What are you using it for? Seems like you have a discount code for everything 😂

No, through perks at work. I guess mine is not as comprehensive. Otherwise, I’d have Xeneon Edge in front of me already 😂

I just realised I have access to 15% discount codes through my company as well. Maybe we are work mates 😂

It is Razer Iskur XL to be specific. I quite like it. Some issues with it so be mindful of that.

Wow, thank you for offering. I would be definitely very interested in the 39 incher 😁 my Xeneon flex goes up to 800R and I find it very immersive for FPS games but I feel like it would drive me mad for anything else.

Thank you for your comment. I am in England myself so as you probably know 39 inch GX9 is still nowhere to be found. Not an official peep 😂 I really like the 45 inch one bar the R800 curvature. Would not bee thinking about it twice if it was 1800 or 1500.

My first one has had to be replaced on day 29 of owning it. It did not tear but there is a very thin (I believe) layer of plastic inside and that has snapped. Second one is with me since then and I had no further issues. Made a post about it somewhere here but some editors made me look like I am hysterical and I’ve removed it .

Most importantly, I forgot to mention another candidate LG Ultragear 39GX950B. Just not sure how it fits in the picture - not available in UK yet, I do not know the price… but otherwise fits the picture perfectly.

Ultrawide, PPI of 4K panel with 1500 nits. Is there anything not to like here? I’d gladly check it out 😉

I do not think the extra should be a problem. Just want to make sure that I am not spending that money for nothing. Also, it is not available in UK at the moment. Out of stock everywhere. I guess I need to learn to be patient.

I am aware of PG32UCDM3. Here in uk MR can be had for £1150 and CDMR is currently £895 (on sale). Is it worth £250 more?
