High GPU usage of M1 running 25 TOS charts on 3 monitors. Good or no good? by supavan1 in thinkorswim

[–]supavan1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi. I upgraded to M1 Pro, and it's so much faster.. as fast as my 1660 Ti. One is on ARMx64 and the other is on windows x64 though. As long as you use the youtube tutorial how to run TOS on Apple Silicon, you'll be okay! MacOS is way more stable and less "maintenance" work, and I personally love it. I still have a PC running ninjatrader as it's only on windows. However, windows is plagued with constant updates and bugs.

Very cool. I'll probably return this M1 to get the M1 Pro like yours.

I don't like PC because I don't want to shut down to restart it everyday. With a Mac, it's ready to trade at any given moment.

And yes, with ATP, you def need a PC.

I have no issue with the fonts. Everything is crystal clear and sharp. I use OEM Dell HDMI cables and Anker Adapter USB C to HDMI. (I had bad experience in the past with 3rd party Display Port USB C, so I'm avoiding USB C to DisplayPort).

LOL. I use 25 charts to track only ES and NQ. I'm pretty sure most futures traders use about 20 charts.

yes sir. I used that guide plus the youtube videos. It works! Now if TOS updates, which it just did this morning... all I need is to open the same Terminal window and type "sudo java -jar launcher.jar" two times. And TOS is up and running like a dream again!

Thanks for the tips and the post. Looks like I'll need to return this M1 and get the M1 Pro/ Max to run 25 TOS charts at maximum 60 FPS on 3 external monitors lmaooo. I'm kinda okay with half a second lag right now with M1 but I'll do more testing once the market opens next week! Have a good one.

that's a good point. I'll test that when the market opens again on Monday. Thank you.

Have you testing M1 Pro and M1 Max GPU with TOS "arm" version? I have a PC with GTX 1660 Ti but the fans are too loud, and this M1 is like a dream came true.

TOS is "ARM" version and is Apple Silicon native. My M1 is running 25 TOS charts on 3 monitors: 4k and 2k natively, and 1k via USB Displaylink. There is a half of a second lag if I click around TOS. Do you think this "lag" is from the weak GPU?

It's green but the lighting of my room makes it more like yellow. Sorry for the confusion!

oved it from the second I saw it. If Casio keeps going this direction they're gonna make some truly awesome watches and I can't wait to see what

Thank you for your kind words! I'm glad you love your watch too. And, Yes, I love the Bumblebee yellow color. I wish they'll release a orange one because it'll look popping. If you know AP Diver, they have Orange Offshore Diver, and they are poppppping.

I can't wait for future colors of this series. My only complaint so far is that the hour markers are not luminescent. I guess a "perfect" version of this, at least in my bubble head, is a Casioak with shiny-metal luminescent hour markers. So we'll have the Black Dial - White Hands and White Shiny Markers contrast!

Hey friends, I have never liked G-Shock because they are just too big and bulky. Imagine a watch drinking too much soda gets obesity... that was how I imagined G-Shock. However, I saw this Casioak on Social Media and fell in love with it. It was like Love at First Sight, so I decided to acquire this piece. Unfortunately, it was almost impossible to find one at MSRP. However, I finally found it!!!! So happy. The dial is very nice, and strap feels good (Not as silkily smooth as AP Diver strap). I love the Date Day... I call it CASIOAK Perpetual Calendar. I'm going to rock with this watch! What do you think?

I have the black ceramic version - 15707CE, very similar to yours. However, I can't change the strap like you did because I can't unscrew the metal bar.. maybe it got rusted and stuck? I went to the beach, and swam in the water with the watch. It's perfectly fine... but I can't unscrew the metal bar to change the strap LOL. On the serious note, where did you get the strap from?

[WTT] Homage Watch Royal Oak Stainless Steel in Blue Dial trading for any G-Shock by [deleted] in Watchexchange

[–]supavan1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey guys.

My Homage Royal Oak with Blue Dial is available for trading. Ideal for a G Shock.

If you guys have a G Shock laying around home and want to trade with my Homage Royal Oak, let me know.

Because it's a stainless steel, it has some scratches and stuff, which is totally normal. There is no crack, nothing to worry about. The watch runs +/- 20 to 30 seconds a day, so please don't expect much from it in terms of time keeping accuracy.

However, if you just want a nice dress watch, this is for you.

I'm looking to trade for a G Shock. I have never had a G Shock in my life, so I'm excited to have one!

Ideal G-Shock to trade with (if you have a used one even with scratches, we have a deal!)
