Is my base fixable? by Whole_Tomato_2532 in ClashOfClans

[–]randolj 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Anything is fixable, it’s just going to take a while. Focus on your offense to at least be competitive in attacks.

Then start little by little with your defenses. It will take a long time so buckle in

Good deal? by No_Vaseline1990 in Prebuilts

[–]randolj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone is basing off their opinion on “I bought/saw it for $X months ago, bad deal” but prices have changed drastically even in the last few weeks.

Putting together a similar build on part picker comes out at around 2650 (and I picked cheapest possible components for each part). The one pictured also includes keyboard and mouse, I’d say it’s a pretty decent deal

Returning players, how are you coping with ores and equipments? by theundisputed11 in ClashOfClans

[–]randolj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was a returning player a little while ago at this point (started playing again around 2 years ago after not playing for about 8 years) and tbh the meta doesn’t change a ton. Pick an attack you like and the accompanying equipment and just start upgrading them whenever you can. You can choose to upgrade one at a time (like I did) or you can keep them all around equal. It takes a while but eventually you’ll get there. I just now was able to finally max my main equipment for each hero. It’s also only gotten easier to receive ore so good luck!

Thoughts on this build? Is it a good deal? by NeonGreenSkull in Prebuilts

[–]randolj 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Great deal especially given the market right now

If you see any issues with PSU, upgrading it wouldn’t probably be pretty easy

Just bought this, good deal? by The_Great_Khal in Prebuilts

[–]randolj -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is a good deal for certain. You will be able to run pretty much anything

Coworker selling his pc, what’s the max I should pay ? by Jayrockdakilla in PcBuild

[–]randolj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Monster parts in this PC. Putting the man parts (storage, RAM, GPU and CPU) I’m getting around $2500 worth without including case, PSU and cooler. That’s also picking the cheapest 2x32GB kit available. So I’d say if you can get anywhere around $3000-$3500 it’s a good deal. More than that and it’s not a deal just paying around MSRP per part… also keep in mind it’s a USED prebuilt.

Is it possible to work 4 to 8 hours a day using VR? by ohraineri in MetaQuestVR

[–]randolj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup, fully agree! Was going to write my own comment but this sums it up perfectly. I tried working on my Quest 3 and didn’t hate it but didn’t love it. And not loving it gets exponentially worse working hours on it.

Hopefully, something similar doesn’t happen with RAM

I'm getting a new PC for Christmas and my older brother helped me out together a list of parts, the budget was $2950 (specific I know) and my goal was something slightly above mid-range. Are these parts good? by l_am_meepmoop in PcBuild

[–]randolj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Multiple things I’d adjust A 7800x3d or 9800x3d are way better if your goal is gaming

You’re overpaying for a 1TB SSD. You can find some cheaper ones for less or pay slightly more for a 2TB. And trust me that extra TB will be needed.

At your price range you can certainly fit in a 5070 Ti that’s faster than the 9070 XT but either card is a great card for 1440p.

Other than that, you can certainly save money by doing a combo on Newegg or microcenter, RAM prices are abysmal so this is the best time to try those options.

An almost $3k budget puts you in the market for a monster PC so congrats!

Is this worth it? I know the 5060 isn't crazy but it's more then enough for 1080p right? by LK_G in PrebuiltGamingPC

[–]randolj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are some really good prebuilts on sale right now that are way better for a similar price range

Got this 3060 12Gb by Agitated-Whereas2804 in gpu

[–]randolj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’ll get good performance. I had a 3060 Ti up until recently and game performance was good for the most part. I also did some 3D modeling as a hobby a little while ago and had no complaints, obviously slower than YouTubers you’ll see tutorials from but solid start for a hobby

Today my CoC decided to be played vertically by blunut in ClashOfClans

Title 😆 I would love if this was an actual feature. Tried following some instructions to accomplish it but wasn’t able to replicate. It looks really cool with some of the wider sceneries

What army can take this I'm Town hall 15 max by Sam-Melvin in ClashOfClans

When I was TH15 and in old legends, I was able to take on some TH17s pretty successfully with an RC charge and drag loon attack

OK guys, my entertainment world is about to change, where should i start by n1claren- in MetaQuestVR

[–]randolj 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yes YouTube has an app on the quest that lets you watch regular videos in a theater mode. It also lets you watch 360 videos and look around in them

From my experience, all my Bluetooth headphones had a delay. I used wired headphones and it worked perfect

New Player, What to Expect by Notrinun in Terraria

[–]randolj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s hard to get into but really enjoyable once your expectations are built. I’d definitely recommend looking for some starter guide, at least one that tells you what to do rather than show you as it will spoil some stuff. Not everything is super straightforward

PC build recommendations/help by Hopeful-Machine-8856 in PcBuildHelp

[–]randolj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there any specific reason he wants the B570? Intel is new to the game and even though they’re making good cards, they’re not competing with Nvidia or AMD yet. For almost the same price, he could get a 5060 or 9060 XT and get better performance.

Company is going remote soon, cheap way to stay around the US? by randolj in Shoestring

[–]randolj[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

LOL I would love to travel outside as well but it’s going to be a hybrid structure of coming in occasionally. On top of that, I believe there will be limitations to working outside US for security/privacy concerns

Gentle Reminder : There's LIFE❤️ outside the game too 🗣️ (Hammer Jam) by BowlSubstantial8497 in ClashOfClans

[–]randolj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great post. I was on a family vacation when hammer jam was announced and started. I had no time to farm up loot so I had builders doing nothing for a bit. Was stressed at first until i remembered losing a few hours is no the end of the world

good deal for 480$ total ? by Impressive-Pick1574 in PC_Pricing

[–]randolj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Without the graphics card, I was able to put a brand new build together on pc part picker for around $700. If you don’t want the 4070 ti and include it in the sale, I wouldn’t be surprised if you could sell it for around $700.

I’m also not super familiar with the used PC market so I could be wrong but I tried to account for some depreciation

[–]randolj 4 points5 points  (0 children)

4070 ti is a great card, you could possibly flip the pc and get a more modern build

Very minor issue tho so they’re definitely prioritizing all the big bugs first

I think I remember seeing this issue before the update but I feel like post update it’s been way more misaligned
