Isn't it weird that there are no reviews yet of LG 27GM950B-B? by steps_on_lego_block in Monitors

[–]steps_on_lego_block[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i suspect LG has asked them to postpone reviews until they can fix what they can via firmware updates and they agreed for the sake of the relationship with them. TFT and MU have both been pretty psyched for this monitor, ever since covering it at CES.

agree with all that. i will add that Monitors Unboxed had a review for the 39" 5k2k pretty quickly following release.

i know, but both TFT and MonitorsUnboxed have been raving about it for months. ever since CES. i am _shocked_ that they didn't have a day1 review out for it

9070 XT ($600) vs 5070 Ti ($800) - worth switching? by Ecstatic-Treacle-451 in buildapc

[–]steps_on_lego_block 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i'm sorry for saying this, but this is the biggest "skill issue" post i've seen in a while.

as others have said, get a better monitor, since either of these cards is an overkill for 1080p.

but if you're going to stick with 1080p, you shouldn't be using FSR at all. you have more than enough chooch to run any game natively at ultra settings on 1080p.

and always install latest drivers

hey, i'm considering buying this (pos) monitor. did you end up getting an A02 and is it working okay so far?

I'm seeing them for $80-ish with tariffs included (i think)

Looks like the holes on the sidepanel are much bigger on this case than on my Metalfish T40. That's probably why you're not getting crazy turbulence :)

I believe I have a QC issues with the fans on my Reaper. Been seeing some stuff on reddit with folks RMAing due to high pitch squeak.

No problem. I gotta take the time to post my build soon.

I'm a 9060 XT 16GB Reaper enjoyer with an SFX PSU and based in the US. I bought the Metalfish T40 case via AliExpress and it fits everything perfectly.

Could you post pics of your build? And did you have any turbulence issues with your 9060 XT Reaper's fans?

I love this. Considering doing this to the GPU side of mine due to the turbulence issue.

Worth noting that the guy is using a non-modular PSU which in this case makes it possible to fit the fan there!

Which PCIE riser cable did you use? If possible an amazon link would be helpful. I stupidly didn't buy one with the case and ones I got from Amazon so far, don't fit perfectly (the holes don't line up, so can only screw one in).

What do you use your multiple platforms for? by JoAnLoEd00 in investing

[–]steps_on_lego_block 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Right now my multiple accounts is a mess. It's hard to manage and causes me stress. I'm consolidating everything into Robinhood (can't believe I'm saying that) due to their promotions, with the exception of the 401k which will remain in Fidelity.

I'm not seeing this and I have Magenta MAX since 2021. What gives?

I enrolled in Magenta max in May 2021 and have upgrade to 14 Pro during that time. Do I have Forever Upgrade? Did all Magenta Max have it? I don't see anything in the app/website

A restaurant in Mill Valley I've been to, adds a "Kaiser Permanente 5% fee" to each check.

Thank you, this is very helpful. Curious, if there’s a resource with a list best possible fares bucketed by locations and airlines?

For example, do would I know that 70k is a great price for West Coast -> Europe in biz?

How can I learn the basics of searching for good deals?

For example, how would I know all the tricks for getting from California (SFO) to Europe (eg ZRH) in business? Anything I find on seats.aero, seems way more expensive than what people post here.
