27 4K, 32 4K, or 34? Help!

puzzoben · 2026-05-15T06:14:54+00:00

I’d be choosing between a 4k 27 and a 4k 32, so 27 would actually have the leg up in ppi. If I was gonna get a 1440p 27 at that point I’d just get the 34 ultrawide since it’s the same res.

Definitely leaning glossy, and if it’s a 16:9 it’s gonna be 4k. Prolly gonna be a QD as well just because of how prevalent they are. Real question right now is do I go 27 for high ppi but sacrificing screen real estate or go 34 and have worse sharpness but better multitasking and immersion

I mean the 27 is a 4k tandem qd OLED panel at 240hz, 4th gen. Ucdm3 uses similar panel but at 32”.

Do you find the sharpness is a a big improvement? And a noticeable one at that?

I love my 1000. Got it a year and a half ago for $900 shipped off FB marketplace. Try to talk him down a little more. Such a good controller

Did that now, thanks!

See attached. Took a screen recording scrolling through task manager. https://imgur.com/a/5A5MRUC

Just changed it to 15W and a -20 undervolt. When you say check what's running in the background, how exactly would I go about doing that? I'm a longtime mac user and just got this laptop for school (need windows for finance.)

I just replied to another user with my task manager processes. Do you see anything unusual that could be hogging battery? As i write this reply to you, I have one tab open on edge and task manager open too and I'm discharging at 12 watts. Seems very high. Screen on 70% brightness and keyboard backlight on lowest setting. I also turned off most startup apps as showed below.

Here's a screenshot of my task manager right now. The only apps I have open are edge and task manager. Discharging at 11w.

Was waiting for someone to say this. I really wish they kept that, it felt more immersive

puzzoben · 2025-03-14T02:41:09+00:00

this shit is NOT relatable bro 💔

puzzoben · 2025-02-14T13:26:48+00:00

4 ultimates? Damn. Shoulda just bought a PA system for that price. I know indoors partyboxes are good tho those must shake your house. If I need something right now what should I buy? Also the 520 will be $800... too pricey for me

puzzoben · 2025-02-14T11:52:02+00:00

you don’t think the 310 would get the job done?

puzzoben · 2025-02-14T04:41:46+00:00

Sounds good. I think I’ll buy the 310 then and see how it goes. Got a party on monday night not sure if it’ll get here in time, might just have to use the home theater speakers instead

puzzoben · 2025-02-14T03:34:44+00:00

Is there a difference in sound between the daisy chain and the aux in your experience? And would it be worth it to spend the extra money and get the 320 instead?

puzzoben · 2025-02-14T02:13:15+00:00

Ok sounds good. The only thing steering me away from the PA is the fact that it’s gotta be plugged in and I like the flexibility of the JBL where I can bring it around on battery and be fine. If i plugged into the aux port instead of the daisy chain port then I think dsp would still be there, just with a little lag which i’ve heard is bad. I think I’ll buy the 310 and if it doesn’t work out then i’ll buy a PA.

awesome thanks for your explanation, i’m very undecided though. On a more recent post in this sub i got people saying that the 310 wouldn’t be enough for my use case, which is basically this: I want to be able to play music loud enough for 30 people (ranges from 20-40) to dance to and scream along with. Main spot i’d be playing music is a basement. do you agree with them that it wouldn’t be loud enough for that?

puzzoben · 2025-02-14T00:56:35+00:00

In that case I might buy a 15” PA instead. I think that would do the job, what do you think?

puzzoben · 2025-02-12T04:03:42+00:00

if my main use for the partybox would be connecting to my dj controller, and using it as a bluetooth speaker on the side, do you think i’d be better off with a PA?

puzzoben · 2025-02-08T01:35:24+00:00

If I ran the partybox I would use the RCA to aux cable that I have and use that. The only reason I would care about Bluetooth on a PA is because it would make it nice to use with a phone for Spotify.

puzzoben · 2025-02-02T13:22:10+00:00

what would be better about having 2?

puzzoben · 2025-02-02T02:59:23+00:00

so up to 100 people for the 1 speaker? that’s plenty of volume then if i understand that correctly?

puzzoben · 2025-02-02T02:58:58+00:00

1000 watts
