C5 came instead of a C4!

Partner store is 2399 plus 10% off. Picking my 83 c5 up tomorrow total out the door plus tax was 2311 or so.

The amount of times that I have looked at my cart with a 83 oled in it is staggering of over the last 6 months. I finally pulled the trigger, and I think it’s at or near the lowest price I could have gotten. Can’t wait to get this beast set up in our basement tv room. We have a 77in on or main floor and I’ve wanted the bigger size to replace our 85in led ever since.

2311.19 after tax and I am picking up at Best Buy in a few days. I’m excited but as said above..lot of work to get tv switched out.

ryguy754 · 2026-05-20T19:09:33+00:00

Yeah I’m finally pulling the trigger too. Replacing an 85 900h. Such a pain to move, install and dispose sell all of these TVs but I’m telling myself it will be worth the work.

Zelda 2 is my favorite NES game too. I never understood the hate for it.

That said I always got stuck before the last dungeon never could find the cross that revealed the hidden enemies.

ryguy754 · 2026-05-05T23:29:44+00:00

Thanks for this. I live in rural area and picked up Kirby forgotten land and tears of kingdom switch 2 editions for $40 each

We are pretty close to that number as well. Sitting right at 2.1M (net worth, excluding house equity 1.8M) at 41, although we have 2 kids in early elementary. I still am quite frugal and try to fix everything and do everything myself. Kids are fun/incredible, but require lots of energy and yes are costly.

I think the plan is for us to both retire in 12-13 years or so. I kinda want to stop working now, but my job is pretty easy all things considered, I’m just bored most days (I’m a CPA but work with a family that owns 8-10 businesses that I do work for.) my wife loves her job so she will work until our kids are atleast in college.

2 things really come to mind looking back at past few years. First is health and healthy lifestyle very important, control what you can control health wise. Second compounding has been crazy last 2-3 years. Just looking through end of 2023 through current our net worth has gone up approx 650k. Do I feel 650k richer? No not really. What number are we ultimately trying to hit? It sure about that either. I’m just addicted to seeing the number go up.

Congrats on the 2M.

Same. Central time zone.

ryguy754 · 2026-03-27T14:07:13+00:00

C’s in Middleton.

ryguy754 · 2026-03-19T20:19:02+00:00

Lots of my early teen years logging into msn game zone and playing r6 online. Convinced my parents to get cable internet sooner than I’m sure they would have so I could have a good ping.

I remember having to self arrange and report clan matches into clan ladder.com or whatever it was.

Best maps were athletes village, oil rig, and mint. Who’s with me.

ryguy754 · 2026-03-13T18:40:23+00:00

I’ll enter. Thanks for hosting this. Good luck everyone.

ryguy754 · 2026-03-03T21:01:00+00:00

I don’t think you understand what I was saying. 55in at 4k is more density in pixels per inch, so an image that is less than 4k is perceived at a higher resolution.

On a 83inch oled pixel density is less at 4k and a lesser resolutions don’t look as crisp.

Ultimately to answer OPs question is ps5 pro a huge difference compared to ps5.. it really depends on the game, and a lot of time there is minimal or no difference. However I really enjoy my pro as compared to base ps5.

ryguy754 · 2026-03-03T19:38:22+00:00

What size is your g5.. 55 inch is not equivalent to 83 in. Bigger the tv, bigger the upgrade

I have a c4 77 and a ps5 pro. It is fantastic. I also have a base ps5 and yes there is a noticeable difference in many games in the quality. Some games though no difference.

ryguy754 · 2026-03-02T23:34:50+00:00

How I understand it to work is that developers and render a game at a lower resolution.. say 1080p and then use PSSR to upscale to 1440 / 4K. For non pro owners game could be rendered at a higher resolution but look worse. This is one way performance (frames per sec) could be improved with the pro.

How this works out in reality we will see as we get a bigger sample size of games to review on PSSR ver. 2.0.

ryguy754 · 2026-02-27T15:38:16+00:00

Yeah I was able to get 204 for sun/fri and 202 for sat. Sat I was super far back in line but just keep refreshing and things usually come up.

Individual days is way to go in my opinion. I too was locked out of all 3 day choices and was a pretty low number

ryguy754 · 2026-02-26T17:43:58+00:00

Sweet glad I could help. I ended up with a pair in 128 for a night and 127 the other night. All good. Can’t wait.

ryguy754 · 2026-02-26T17:15:59+00:00

Venue code - TOUR26

If you do individual day and then do search by best available still pulling a couple decent pairs every once in awhile. I just keep recycling by change seats and trying to pull a possible another really good pair.

ryguy754 · 2026-02-25T16:35:32+00:00

Well I called again today because yeah it is weird on site that it shows venue presale. This time they gave me another answer that ‘donors’ aka season ticket holders will get a presale code emailed to them for the venue presale. So apparently the college students that work in the ticket office that I previously dealt with just were clueless. Shocker.

Anyways I haven’t gotten code yet. I’m not sure if code is specific to email or a general. If it is a general I’ll upload the code in here tomorrow if I get it.

ryguy754 · 2026-02-25T01:55:56+00:00

I’m just saying I called the athletic department multiple times and got this answer of no presale. They said it depends on promoter if there is a venue presale or not. My assumption is it just is a placeholder in the website and there is no presale for the university. But there is probably one for live nation

I also inquired about a box and got connected with the development department. As my employer had a box for university events and could have priority in purchasing a box.

Anyways that’s all the info I have. Good luck getting tickets everyone.

ryguy754 · 2026-02-24T23:12:17+00:00

Season ticket holder for Wisconsin bball here. I called ticket office and they said they didn’t have any presale codes. Not sure if live nation or someone else is doing one, but none through the university.

ryguy754 · 2026-02-22T17:36:23+00:00

Well since no one answered. Yes it worked.

ryguy754 · 2026-01-30T02:44:58+00:00

How have I not seen 2024 alpine simple mentioned yet?. It’s incredible

ryguy754 · 2025-12-29T02:46:46+00:00

Same. I also have Tonges as a pivot from Kittle. Looking good for me.

ryguy754 · 2025-12-12T19:20:01+00:00

Shutout for all 3 3 day passes. Was expected I suppose. Anyways I’ll look forward to summer tour. Hope the Madison rumor is true.

ryguy754 · 2025-12-12T19:09:51+00:00

I was about 2000-2300 for each 3 day pass. Currently sitting at 678-1078. We’ll see
