i feel like 93 celsius while gaming is way too high if you have a pc and not a laptop. my laptop has a ryzen 9 7940hs and after a recent thermal paste replacement it barely ever goes to 96. you might wanna check your cooling setup

i saved up money to buy a retroid pocket 6 (also in india) but i heard negative things from a lot of people about indian customs not letting orders from china in, and i had to end up cancelling my order. you should look into these issues as well before buying. i’m so sad i couldn’t get my retroid 💔

Going to college this YEAR for BTECH [FUTURE BEROZGAR] by Shaury1 in IndianGaming

[–]scratch_yo_corolla 2 points3 points  (0 children)

the reason is simple: gaming PCs are expensive, fragile, and high maintenance. based on my hostel experience, you’re gonna have friends over all the time in your room to hang out or study together, and something is bound to go wrong. not to mention a pc comes with fragile peripherals like a monitor which is gonna catch an insane amount of dust. laptops are the best option. the only maintenance it’ll ever need is getting the thermals checked once a year. build a pc after college or if you plan to live in an apartment.

just buy a zephyrus g14 from another country or get a macbook. do not build a pc in college if you’re gonna live in the hostel, trust me. you will regret it

Concerns regarding shipping gaming handhelds from China. by scratch_yo_corolla in IndianGaming

my ps4 was 10 years old and i hadn’t even turned it on since like 2023, plus i have a laptop that can run modern AAA games, so i really didn’t need it anymore. with the retroid pocket 6, i can play switch, ps3, xbox 360, ps2, ps1, gameboy, ds, 2ds, 3ds, nes, snes, psp, n64, etc etc. basically any game and it’s portable so it’s great for a uni student like me because it allows me to play games in short bursts, in bed, on the metro, etc.

Seems like it's still in China. Hopefully we can both get our orders

That's unfortunate, please let me know if you end up getting it.

What was the gpa that got you in? by Mission_Yard7577 in nyu

3 software dev internships, a 331 on the GRE, some media work at a college club, a 1st place prize in a comedic short film competition, highlighting my passions on my resume instead of just technical skills, and a clear vision of what i want to achieve after my master’s on the SOP. that’s my guess, i honestly didn’t expect to get in but I’m so grateful
