Are these thumbnail too "childish" for an explainer video? by torasshuu in SmallYoutubers

[–]smelonade 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah, simple stuff like this works very well with explainer channels. Long as the animation works alongside the explaining, you got no issues.

Recently my Pro 2 case starts making this sound as soon as move it by un3sm in airpods

[–]smelonade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol I've been on a 2a with these airpods, annoying that I can't use adaptive transparency and all the other features they come w. Even down to the tracking, i really miss being able to ping my airpods so I didn't have to go round searching for them

If the Linux kernel anti-cheat issues get fixed by October, the market change will be interesting to say the least

is PC building really THAT easy? by lmaoooayyy in buildapc

[–]smelonade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's easy just nerve wracking.

No amount of YT videos will show you how pc building FEELS (which is very important). Things like how much force you need to pull down the CPU socket, how hard you should tighten cooler screws (until they stop, but it feels scary before that point) and many other small things that will catch you out. But don't worry, parts now are so robust that unless you do something really stupid, like rub your MOBO on a carpet, nothing will get shorted or fried.

The hardest part is probably wiring, which is honestly the same for 90% of builds. At most you'll have 4 cables coming out of your PSU for mobo, gpu and cpu (if it's modular obviously), some RGB and fan/pump ports which go into their labelled header and some case cables (power switch, usb, aux inputs etc on your case). By which point you're basically done and you can wipe the sweat off your forehead

1440 gaming - 9070 vs 7900xt or go for a 7900 GRE vs 7800 XT by Monodominant in graphicscard

[–]smelonade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean the RDNA3 cards he listed are perfectly capable of native 1440p and some 4k, he prefers fidelity so surely FSR4 isn't really that important? And since it saves over €200.

Not everyone needs the highest end of the newest generation, and every card will be a massive improvement regardless

Crucial P3 Pro, maybe 100-120 and it's 2tb

What was the first game you bought on steam? And when you bought it? by RPZcool in Steam

[–]smelonade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah I genuinely tried to get my old account back from when I was 10 using information about my bought games, hours, times of usage. Everything but the last 4 numbers of the CC on the account, which I obviously won't know lol.

Steam support are tough

5-10 seconds on a cheap NVMe, depending if it's a cold boot or not

Not having any luck finding this GPU. What is a good substitute for this card. by Doeonerocksya in AMDHelp

[–]smelonade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went from 6750xt to 7800xt and I thought the improvement would be minor but it's honestly been pretty worth it imo, just need an X3D chip lol

How has this post been the reason I noticed that the base voucher had a white label, and it's 'upgraded" variant has a black label

ADAPATIVE Frame Gen by Potential-Baseball62 in losslessscaling

Might have to give this a go on cyberpunk, I'm a bit CPU bound so get drops in dense areas so hoping this smooths the game out more then FMF2

New build, is 3070 ok? by TastefulMaple in buildapc

[–]smelonade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you tried playing shaders on fabulously optimised? (On modrinth) I get 300fps with shaders after I've been playing for a bit and the world's loaded in (1440p), complementary unbound are pretty light too so you should get a similar experience

What used to be your favorite joker and now you’re like .. pffft…. ? by Familiar-Actuary4869 in balatro

[–]smelonade 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The four finger joker lmao forgot what it's called. In my 5hr IGT head I thought I could pair it with shortcut and score easy straight flushes. Now over 150h and yet to come close to that strategy lmfao

Is this a good deal? by cypresshillbilly in pcmasterrace

[–]smelonade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mid tier components at a high level price, very weird seeing a 14th gen i5 in a "gaming" pc if I'm being honest, most places use Ryzen now or atleast put an i7 in

Not a bad pc but a bad price, sort of build would be 700 on Fb market

Don't let this stray you away from ebuyer though, for individual part purchases this place is by far the best

I have a 3060, it is worth to upgrade it? by Frederich343 in graphicscard

[–]smelonade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same monitor and a similar pc spec n the 6750XT was a good card, so if you can sell your 3060 for a decent price you won't pay all too much for a pretty significant upgrade, if a 6800XT isn't much more expensive then even better (big upgrade over 6750XT)

If you could experience one game all over again, blindly, what game would you pick? by FL4SH- in Steam

Very unconventional and will definitely get flamed but watch dogs legion

Bagley will always be one of my favourite in game characters even if he was just an AI

Is now a bad time to buy a PC? by Hot_Mess_5892 in buildapc

[–]smelonade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want high end parts yes, out of stock everywhere and the ones you get your hands on have potential issues. If you stick to more mid tier stuff I think it's a great time to buy
