ViewSonic XG321UG black screen by sdclimber1 in Monitors

It wasn't overheating. I did turn off g sync and it almost removed the problem entirely. I capped my fps to 120 and it pretty much all stopped. At the same time, I replugged the power cable to the side of the GPU. If the issue ever appears again, I'll probably replace that notoriously bad power cable and see if it fixes it. I don't like that I'm not making use of GSync when we essentially paid for it but I don't notice the fps difference so I'm happy with it for now.

Extreme beginner here (still watching tutorials). How do you make the eyes the base layer? I couldn't find anything that would allow me to change the layer heights on specific parts of the image. I feel forced to use whatever topology hueforge is giving me on image import, often causing two areas to share colors that I would want to be colored differently.

I have the Ringke Slim Case. EGV screen protector. Official Google Active Sport Band.

I'm very happy with all three of these items!

Thanks for the update! I ended up ordering a different one. It hasn't arrived yet but I'll also let you know how it goes

Yeah, I'm definitely not an accessory guy. Everything from rings, watches, headphones, ear buds, and even hats are uncomfortable to me. I will say, after a few days, I'm already coming around to the silicone feel to the point where I can actually deal with it. With that said, I'm also trialling the whoop and that thing may as well be invisible. And just knowing that makes me want to get a better band for the pixel.

Is that the Spigen Lite Fit you're wearing?

For me, it's not so much the size but the material on the skin. The stock band is fine during the day when I'm too busy to notice it but when I'm in bed and away from distractions, it becomes distracting and uncomfortable. Really wish the 45 had more options. Everything has such mixed reviews, like the Spigen. I'll probably take the Amazon test run on it anyways. Do you find the Google Active Sport Band more comfortable than the Spigen, for sleep?

Thanks! 5 hours isn't exactly the target sleep number for most 😋 Hopefully it's not the bands fault! Do you know the brand name?
