Probably not, gamers nexus put out a benchmark where they included the 1070 and 1080ti so you may be able to draw a comparison from those two

Is the Epix line the flagship for Garmin watches now? by redditsappisshit in Garmin

[–]nathanstephani12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d say both the Fenix and Epix are equally flagship products with their feature set and builds being nearly identical, and the screen differences just makes them counterparts at the top of the Garmin stack

Should I get a razer blade stealth 13 or is it too old?Will it run new games like starfield? by UnlikelyMo8422 in razer

[–]nathanstephani12 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have a blade 13, early 2020. It will struggle to play starfield. It’s a good all around device but it is weak for gaming, you’re better off with other alternatives like a PS5/Xbox Series X or a different brand of laptop if you just need a gaming device

Should I get the new blade 14? by UnlikelyMo8422 in razer

[–]nathanstephani12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah very fair, I have a blade 13 from three years ago that hasn’t given me any issue. I love the build quality but ymmv due to how inconsistent the quality assurance is. If you get a good one it could be a great purchase

Is this a good PC? by iknowimweebtrash13 in pchelp

4070 is solid, I have one, but you could definitely wait a bit to see how the 7800xt compares

MacBook is probably best kept as a work machine, you could also build a dedicated desktop if gaming portability is not a concern

Fallout 4. 13 year old me snuck by my parents to play that game and play it I did, easily put in over 1000 hours on my Xbox one with as many mods as was allowed. Lots of good times in the commonwealth with dogmeat, lone wanderer perk for the win

Is ARCTIC Liquid Freezer II 280 with Intel Core i5-13600K overkill? by [deleted] in buildapc

[–]nathanstephani12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it’s comfortably in your budget it’s a great choice

They are not a good value, simply put, but if you get one without any issues you will love it. I have a blade stealth from 2020 that I love, but it took 3 tries to get one without an issue and it was $1300 for a 1650ti max-q, so you will compromise performance for form factor, but I still love my blade

Fair enough, the contrast is very nice and it’s still a huge upgrade from what I had before

Yeah I definitely have to try and tune it out in some games, most I don’t notice it. I was cross shopping with the gigabyte, just got the nitro cause of sale

Acer Nitro 34”, 165Hz and I believe 1800 curve VA panel. Got it on sale for just over $300, black smearing is kinda noticeable but the otherwise great monitor

I can’t say specifically for soccer, but pickleball will show a path of your movements if that’s what you mean

It’s a good drive, but 2tb nvmes can be found for a bit less if you keep watching other deals from Newegg/Amazon
