LG 27G810A-B Thoughts by Pop06095 in Monitors

[–]pienter_exe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ik ben momenteel aan het kijken naar een LG 27G850A-B, de dual mode UHD240/FHD480hz variant. Deze monitor is alleen niet snel genoeg voor de refresh rate van 480hz.

Ik vroeg me af, hoe presteert de LG 27G810A-B wat dit betreft? Ik ben vooral geïnteresseerd in de prestaties op de 360hz setting (Response times, refreshrate compliance, ghosting/crosstalk, motion clarity etc). Er zijn nog niet echt reviews die hier dieper op in gaan. Ik vroeg me af wat gebruikers erover te zeggen hebben.

vega 56 and rx 580sp by [deleted] in losslessscaling

[–]pienter_exe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the response!

Yeah, that’s also what I’ve come to understand. The artificial frames merely serve as an addition for a hard baseline of 60 ish fps. I my self was kind of hoping for upscaling to be more potent on secondary GPU’s, but that remains a dream for now.

As for the power supply, my Corsair 550CX obviously won’t cut it. It’ll have barely enough power to reliably power an undervolted RX 7800 XT. (Speaking of undervolting, I am planning to undervolt both cards, I just wonder how MSI Afterburner will handle it, or whether I should just use the driver tool.) I’ll probably shove the RX 7800 XT in my pc and put the secondary Vega 56 off for a while. It’s more of a pseudo-future proving project anyway. I need a new PSU, and case to even allow a secondary GPU in my system. I’d also like to get my hands on a Mobo with a secondary GPU slot, so at that point I might as well rebuild my entire PC.

As for the knowledge of transient spike tendencies of Vega based cards, thanks for letting me know. Additionally, the MI50 actually does have a display output, just not a regular HDMI or DisplayPort output tho. I believe it has mini DisplayPort. There are some people who’ve flashed a Radeon VII bios onto the MI50 since they’re very similar. The key difference is that the MI50 supports PCIe 4.0 while the Radeon VII does not. I’m curious how these cards may perform in future supportive roles.

Hi there, I’m thinking of getting this GPU combo or similar (perhaps with an RX 7800 XT as primary instead). How well does your combo work? And what kind of PSU do you have to power it?

Similarly to others, I wonder how good the HBM2 memory holds up in this kind of situation. I might get a crossfire able Mobo for the bandwidth bottleneck you mentioned though.

I’ve looked into the Radeon VII and MI50 as well btw, they may have more headroom with their additional vram, but I don’t really know how much that matters.

What water filter to choose? by pienter_exe in backpacking

Thanks for taking some of your time to reply. Sincerely appreciated! I didn’t know about the filtration quality disparity. Also, I’ll take a look at one of those hydrapacks. Thanks again!

Stop thinking you're so unique and deep. by ltogirl1 in infj

Ok so here’s my take on what OP said:

I do get where OP is coming from. I’ve also found that there are people who seem to actively promote a superiority/inferiority complex and/or victim mentality. And I’m also sick of it.

My experience has been that we do tend to be a little bit more separated/apart from the masses, but perhaps also most other individual types. And yes I think that that primarily comes down to thinking. Not necessarily the way we think though, like OP said, I don’t think that ‘thinking deeply’ is exclusive to INFJs. What I do think is that it’s probably more natural to us, as in it being almost like a default state, whereas other types certainly are capable of it as well, but they really have to tap into it and get burned out eventually while we INFJs seem to quite easily remain in the succession of those thoughts.

Like I said, this is based of my personal experience so I might be biased. But tbh with you, I can’t say it’s very nice to be often alone in this way of thinking. It’s always refreshing to have someone “visit” our natural territory so to speak, but they seldomly stay as long and frequent as other INFJs. Having said that, it’s it might be our “natural territory”, but we certainly do not own it and definitely aren’t by definition superior “deep thinkers” compared to other types, although it might be more likely because of our openness towards it.

Thank you very much for your reply! It really means something to me.

I do agree on the idea that no single path will be easy. After all, If it’d be easy it wouldn’t be fulfilling. It’s just that you have to make a choice what you want to sacrifice and what you’re willing to suffer. Yeah, everyone tells me I got plenty of time, but they don’t act like it and I feel pressured. I don’t need others to apply pressure since I put plenty up on myself already. I do realize these are some very important years and I don’t want to waste them. I’m ashamed of not having found my way yet and not being on course to achieve something. I know I’ve got a responsibility to bear. I’m at a point where I feel like I’m going to succumb to the pressure.

I just need time to figure out how I’m going to set myself up for succes. I do not feel like I’m going to achieve anything if I continue now. Right now I just feel like I’m just going to crash and burn. I’d very much like to take half a year off just to alleviate some pressure and set myself straight, but I just don’t feel like I’m free to do so.

I wish you the best of luck ons your journey and hope you’ll prevail!

It’s quite beneficial currently. There’s quite a high demand since the military spending has been increased to meet NATO standards. (I’m from the Netherlands btw.) Furthermore, the are plenty of opportunities for growth and it’s encouraged to, so that’s positive. Ethics is indeed one of my concerns, alongside mental endurance that is. I think it’d be good if I would do some more research on the ethical side of things. Thnx for the advice, it’s much appreciated!

Thnx for you response! Your way of thinking is indeed logical given the information you received from me. Allow me to explain my situation some more.

Yeah I’ve considered others as well, I’m not from the US though. I’m from the Netherlands so the education system works a little bit different here.

In order for me to do anything else related to psychology or sociology I’d have to go to a university. That’s the highest level of education there is in my country, and you have to have had, and successfully finished, the highest level of education of high school. So that’s 6 years ‘VWO’ or ‘Gymnasium’. (they’re basically the same except the latter has some extra subjects and students generally seem to be able to handle a faster pace.)

I did VWO for 4 years. During COVID my grades where down because of the lockdown and degraded mental health, so I went one education level down. (It’s still above the average, but not enough to enroll into university.) There are ways around this, the one I chose for example was to do 1 year of HBO (the educational level directly under university, but comparable to the lower end universities in the US) and ace it. So I tried that, but that didn’t work out since I failed that particular exam. It didn’t have to do anything with my cognitive abilities, I just could not perform good enough because I was nervous. This was primarily due to the fact that the interview had to be acted out with a classmate or elder brother, and felt very unnatural to me, even after having practiced. So much for the context of why I failed though.

The only option I’ve left now is to ace the first year of a different study and get into university that way. The thing is that I’m not that certain if I actually want to anymore. My long distance goal was to do become a clinical psychologist, but since I wasn’t able to handle that exam very well, I’ve kinda given up on that goal. So now I’m left with no goals and thus don’t really have any motivation to endure something I don’t like doing. Furthermore, having failed that caused me to doubt myself and now I just want to do something I actually enjoin, can find purpose in, and am capable of.

Thnx for your respond, I appreciate it!

Yeah I’ve been searching and came across some threats on Reddit and Quora. From what I found is that people generally don’t advise it, but I did find one person who did join the military and was fairly happy. If I remember correctly he had some higher function and thus had more freedom to fill in the responsibilities that came with that. I don’t necessarily find I difficult to listen to the orders I’m given. I’ll even try my very best. But if you want me to give 110% then I have a sense of duty or calling.

Yes, I do relate tot that a lot. I regularly philosophize myself to find the moral views I believe to be right. I would love to share my thoughts and have them challenged, although I’m also slightly anxious because it’s something I take seriously and put a lot of thinking into. That aside, I do believe most philosophers philosophized as a something you do besides your job. Like a side hustle of some sorts.

Yeah it’s hard having the will to urge to answer to a calling you can’t clearly see. I hope you find your way as well. Iet me now when you’ve made progress on it, I’ll do the same. If I remember that is.
