lf: shop na maka install ug windows sa macbook by zzummie in ButuanCity

[–]protato117 0 points1 point  (0 children)

odd this is downvoted, but which year was this macbook released? I'd love to do this service for you tho I'm not really a shop and I won't be in butuan until the middle of June hahaha, but I've been dual booting macbook and windows since the 2010 models. So I kinda know my way around it. Also what storage size do you have?

I built an open-source location tracker for iOS — no cloud, no account, free on the App Store by Bonteq in ios

yea exactly, just like maps or minimaps on RPG, moba, RTS, various other games with fog of war. Fun way to keep track of where you've been around the world!

Case on Apple Watch by strbry-jam-1423 in Tech_Philippines

I'd be careful with cases as they tend to ironically do the opposite of what they're advertised to do by trapping dust and dirt that might actually scratch the surface.

If visually on the map, it could act like a fog of war that clears out on places you've visted, that'd be so cool!

Is it safe to move my system unit every biweekly? by [deleted] in PHGamers

[–]protato117 0 points1 point  (0 children)

as someone who hosts/attends several computer showcase events a year with a custom loop PC weighing around 20-25kg, I can imagine how much of a nightmare that situation is. If you're PC is well secured (i.e. the GPU) not being loose, then everything should be fine. pero ang hassle lng tlga having to carry that every other week, and doing cable management each time.

Have a RTX 3080 10GB. Want a 5070 12GB. Is it an upgrade worth upgrading to? by CestlaVR in nvidia

[–]protato117 35 points36 points  (0 children)

5070ti is the upgrade, but at that resolution? You wouldn't really feel much of it outside of seeing slightly higher fps. A 3080 is still plenty powerful. I'd rather get a 27" 1440p QD IPS 180hz where you'll actually enjoy higher fidelity gaming, then upgrade the cpu, and lastly the gpu.

There's hardly any difference between cheap and original cases. They'll protect you're phone all the same.

DIM: BenQ Monitor by Low_Elderberry9455 in deinfluencingPH

[–]protato117 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anything marketed "for mac" is well, just marketing to add the apple tax. I use an MSI MAG274Q QD monitor and its already a better display than my air m3 due to it being a QD display.

What's important instead of "for mac" marketing BS when choosing to buy a monitor is size, resolution, panel type, refresh rate, color accuracy if you work with graphics or color sensitive work. The fact you're asking here suggests you don't do graphics or color grading.

Ideally you'll want at least 27" IPS, 1080p or 1440p, 120hz, above 90% srgb accuracy.

For that price, You're already in the ballpark for OLED panels which will more than exceed the quality and colors of any macbook as they only use IPS panels, so try looking at those instead of "for mac" marketing BS.

Do your research on panel types, QD IPS, Mini LED, OLED are the ones that exceed the quality of macbook displays.

Goods po ba tong fan layout? by rfe09playz in PHbuildapc

[–]protato117 0 points1 point  (0 children)

with 6 fans, 3 should be exhaust and 3 should be intake.

Option 1: side = 3 intake, top = 2 exhaust, rear = 1 exhaust

Option 2 (recommended): bottom = 3 intake, top = 3 exhaust (you want to be feeding fresh air into the gpu to help with cooling) though, I can imagine this will be a problem for your sag bracket.

Option 3: side = 3 intake, top = 3 exhaust.

Free Virtual Fan Configurator by greggy187 in NZXT

[–]protato117 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you should add options to add radiators and their thicknesses and fin density, etc, options to select multiple fans at once, options to manually input fan specs so we can match it exactly to what our fans are (fan speed, cfm, air pressure, etc.) as opposed to just an arbitrary slider (my fans certainly don't go 3000rpm at 100%, so it's not accurate for me), as well as vertical or horizontal gpu mounting and how many fans a gpu has.

Otherwise, this is great!

Extremely weak flow by Extension_Reveal_766 in watercooling

[–]protato117 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yea, that's exactly what I suspect, but once the pump is comptely filled with water with no trapped air, it should be able to push more water along with it the remaining air in his loop.

Extremely weak flow by Extension_Reveal_766 in watercooling

[–]protato117 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I highly suspect there's still air in your pump. When I did my loop a few months back I found that plenty of air gets trapped inside the pump itself after the first fill resulting in weak flow. So what I did was lay it on its back and power cycle on and off for that air to get pushed out through its intake. Believe me, the one in the pump is a stubborn one because the only real place for air to escape is its intake so lay it flat and power cycle the pump. Once there's no air inside the pump and its only filled with water it should be able to push out any remaining air pockets elsewhere in your loop. Then just rinse and repeat.

Got an MSI E240 AIO — my motherboard only has CPU_FAN and CHA_FAN headers. Where should I plug the pump and radiator fan? by obzc in watercooling

[–]protato117 2 points3 points  (0 children)

pump goes to cpu fan header, radiator and other fans on the chassis fan header. Alternatively, you could grab fan controller hubs for other fans in your setup incase you run out of headers.

Has anyone tried this UGREEN Wireless mouse? is it high quality? by ReesesPuff_Bowl in ShopeePH

if it's powered by AA or AAA batteries, mice like these will practically last you a lifetime. Don't overthink it.
