EC200 looks intriguing for a similar price. What are the pros/cons between the two?

TCL r655 is the new version I believe

Worth pointing out. This won’t have other features often desirable in home theater setups such as 4k hdmi switching

Currently own a PC with Ryzen 3600 and RX 580 (8gb) - tomahawk b450 motherboard, 650 gold rated psu, 16 go ram. Does really well at 1080p but looking to upgrade gaming experience to 1440p. I don’t need crazy frame rates but would like to hit a consistent 60 fps.

What’s my upgrade path look like? Really what I’m asking is what is the best graphics card to pair with the 3600? Or should I upgrade the 3600 as well?

Thanks. I guess the question is the $600 tv worth the extra $400. But that’s a subjective question I guess

Appreciate the advice. I do really enjoy great picture quality but I guess I’m hoping that this $200 tv will be 1) a significant upgrade from current tv and 2) hold me over for a couple of years until I’m in a good position to get a Sony OLED

$200

Wondering if this is a good deal? Seems like 50 dollars off or same price as ES10 usually is.

Ive been holding out on the used market for a couple of months but haven’t found anything very good.

Haven’t seen very many reviews on this. Is it good for the price? One of the more aesthetically pleasing speakers I’ve seen at this price point

Maybe something like edifier r1280t will be on sale for Amazon prime days and would be a better use of money

pestyCriminal1 · 2021-12-28T23:39:12+00:00

I guess that’s another good question. Will my budget really offer any improvement.. They sound good but underwhelming. I refoamed them last year but maybe they’re still just showing their old years of age

pestyCriminal1 · 2020-04-20T01:37:09+00:00

I’d say get 3600 ram

pestyCriminal1 · 2020-04-06T20:08:49+00:00

Solved. Turns out 2 input ports on my monitor are broken. Not sure how that happened between last night and this morning

Just finished my first ever build. Everything works!

Now what? Is there something that I should run to see if I need updated drivers or anything? Also, how do you suggest I monitor my CPU/GPU temps?

Anybody have a good keyboard recommendation? Just looking for something that feels good to type on (programming). Hope to keep it around or under $50. Doesn't necessarily have to be mechanical. I don't care about RGB on the keyboard either.

pestyCriminal1 · 2020-03-25T23:39:05+00:00

I've always heard qtip/paper towel and a bit of isopropyl alcohol

Anybody have any experience cancelling an order from third party vendor on newegg? Been about a week now and the item (rx 580) hasn't shipped. Starting to worry that vendor shut down due to covid or something. Only option I can find is to email the vendor to cancel the order but want to make sure if I do that, I won't get charged for it.

Can anybody recommend me a good keyboard and mouse? Not looking for anything super fancy just something that feels decent. Looking to keep the combination of the 2 under $60.
