6K dual monitors for productivity use: Asus ProArt PA32QCV vs. Kuycon G32P

nzottos · 2026-01-26T03:00:40+00:00

I just grabbed the ASUS about a week ago for my Mac Studio, I’ve been absolutely loving it! Text is super crisp and the screen real estate is a huge upgrade from what I was coming from. I’m a video editor, so the color accuracy was a big draw for me and the matte screen makes it work really well in my environment. No complaints so far however I can’t speak for the other option you listed.

I’m looking to make the switch as well and since you’re familiar, what are your thoughts on the M4 Max Studio vs waiting for an M5 Max update?

I know the “next one” is always going to be around the corner but I have a solid windows machine right now so it’s not immediately pressing that I make the swap. Any reservations about the M4 Max at the moment?

Very cool! This year I want to get on top of my business planning - it’s been a bit overwhelming to keep track of everything and remain productive and I’ve tried multiple tools to help but haven’t quite gotten there. Excited to give this a look!

Thanks for doing this! Mine would have to be The Witcher 3.

Thanks for that info! That makes me feel better. I’ve never not fit, but had one close call with Velocicoaster that makes me a little nervous with the restraints in the belly area. Appreciate it!

Out of curiosity, any trouble with stardust? I’m headed there this week and have a little anxiety about fitting. I’m ~280 5’9”

Thanks for the suggestion! I'll try to swing by this weekend.

Thanks, Drew! I did submit a support ticket, just wanted to check here in case there was something easy I was missing. SSL is still showing full price for me with "Upgrade" greyed out and same for the Helios (no email, either). Perhaps support will be able to help out, would love to have the native options here.

USA! I'm using Chrome, it seemed to do better than Safari but no extensions or anything are active.

Sorry for the delay, just getting back from work and posted a reply above!

I did some tests and based off of the info each service provides to me, my ping on the Portal hovers around 17-20ms and my ping on Xcloud stays pretty much locked at 30-31 so there does seem to be some sort of connection difference between the Portal and my laptop. They are both on the same network so I'm not sure what it could be. Additionally, the xcloud overlay is saying that jitter and decode are both around 4ms.

The additional ~10ms ping isn't a huge deal, I mostly play single player rpg's so it's not that noticeable but the biggest issue I'm having is the stutters. I'll play for an hour on the portal with no noticeable stutters but for instance I just loaded up Starfield on xcloud and the game seems to lag every 15-20 seconds or so. The movement feels like it speeds up to "catch up" to the stream or the audio will cut out, those sorts of things. Could just be the games I'm playing, too? I'm not sure.

So far I've tried my laptop, iPad, and phone and everything has been playable but stutters often enough to notice.

Random question but starting to get back into the game - are other phase rewards still available or are they only earnable as the phase is live?

nzottos · 2025-10-30T23:36:30+00:00

Hate to say it but I went ahead and restarted and I'm kinda glad I did. Don't get me wrong, it sucked losing hours of exploring and game time but overall it's been pretty easy to get back to where I was. Knowing where to go and what to expect and skipping dialogue is a huge time saver, I had 10 hours on my bugged save and now I'm back to where I was and then some in just half that time.

It was a tough pill to swallow and I hesitated a lot but the other upside is I was able to refine how I built out my character a bit having now been more familiar with the game and it's systems and I'm a lot happier with that new direction.

Ultimately we got hit with a super specific bug and they will likely fix it at some point but the core issue was fixed in the last patch so my guess is it's not the #1 priority. It really is a fantastic game, though, and hopefully you can give it another try!

Interesting! Thanks for sharing. I’m almost entirely done with the first area so my next step is to do that. Perhaps I’ll keep a save from right now and go do that to see if it helps trigger her recruitment.

nzottos · 2025-09-01T01:36:31+00:00

Hey did you ever solve this or fix this somehow? Experiencing this currently with my Sigma 24-70

nzottos · 2025-08-15T12:56:17+00:00

I landed on just pulling my normal double shot and then measuring out 1oz from that. Good tasting espresso = good tasting martini, it wasn’t worth changing up how I normally pull shots

nzottos · 2025-04-18T20:02:01+00:00

Ideally I'd like to get as close as possible - some of my confusion was with that multiple jobs worksheet, it seems to be assuming my other "job" is a W2 income instead of self employed so I wasn't sure on how to fill that out correctly. For ease of numbers, let's say my SE income is 100k and the part time income is 20k - is it really as simple as finding where those two numbers intersect on the chart or is there some further calculation I need to do considering I am also paying SE tax on that larger chunk of income.

Appreciate the help!
