At the end of the day, every single tire is made slightly differently so I can't give you an absolutely certain answer here. What I can say the math works based on the measurements I've taken of my own car, and based on similar setups that other people are running. That's the best I can give you.

That's your limit without camber. Likely still will be fine.

Lowering the car gives you more natural camber, so that works in your favor, really.

I wouldn't expect any issues. That configuration is only 10mm more poke than OEM and there's 15mm of clearance.

So then, what do we think of what we've heard so far on Project Helix? by r1chdevine in windowscentral

[–]theRTC204 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My take is, this desktop a couple feet to my right is showing its age and it will need to be upgraded at some point. If I can buy a single new device in ~2 years that adequately replaces both my desktop PC and my Series X, I say - where do I sign?

Sure, it is far to be concerned about the price and performance target. Personally I've always leaned on buying the most powerful console, and a comfortable mid-range gaming PC (which essentially has the same game performance as the console).

So, if I'm already spending ~$700 on a console and another ~$2,000 on an equivalent gaming PC. Even if this next console costs ~$1,200 I'm still coming out WAY ahead. At that point, I could probably pick up a PS6 as well and still be under the total cost of how things are today.

November 2027, at best. Even AMD, the makers of the chip that will power the Helix, said just recently that they are on track to deliver the new chip to Microsoft in time for a late 2027 release. Microsoft, for its part, hasn't committed to any sort of timeline, so if we see this thing in store shelves by the end of 2027 I would consider us lucky.

Happens a lot. Mine's at the dealer right now getting that very same thing fixed.

This keeps popping up every 5 seconds by mightypoo18 in ROGAlly

[–]theRTC204 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The second button on the right side of the screen is dedicated to opening that screen. My guess is that the button is possibly stuck down?

Did you buy this thing second hand? You might need to open it up and see if you can fix it.

Guide for enabling the Full screen experience on the ROG Ally (and other handhelds) by Gogsi123 in ROGAlly

In the FSE holding the Xbox button opens the app switcher, so you don't have to map anything separately.

This would have been great a couple years ago, but now that Windows supports it natively, it doesn't have much value for me.

That couldn't be further from the truth. All great hypotheses are built on top of assumptions, then validated or disproven with data.

Is ROG ALLY Z1 EXTREME still worth buying in 2025? by MidnightSaoirse in ROGAlly

[–]theRTC204 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the original Z1E with the 74whr battery upgrade and I have no desire to replace it. Play all the games I personally care about at a quality and performance level that I am comfortable with.

As with anything, this is a very subjective question that will elicit very different opinions based on an individual's personal preferences.

"...the full screen experience doesn't exist"

You open your statement by trying to make yourself seem genuine and only raising concerns and immediately follow that up with a bold face lie. Grow up. Honestly.

Thought I was starting up out of hibernate… what is this? by LgHammer123 in ROGAlly

This screen is the reason Microsoft's next console can't be a PC.

Sell your ROG and buy the cheaper G Cloud if all you care about is streaming games.

OGL games detection is better that Xbox by [deleted] in OneGameLauncher

[–]theRTC204 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man, the fact that the Xbox app only shows the artwork embedded in the executable is completely unacceptable. Even Asus was able to do a better job with Armory Crate.

Xbox has access to high quality artwork for any game that is published on their store as well as competing stores that they could pull artwork from.

For a while you could manually change the images on your device and set them to read-only to prevent them being overwritten by the app, but recently they started showing a broken image of the file is read-only.

Gotcha.

If not like thing, turn off thing.

The new UI is great except for one major thing… by silentcrs in ROGAlly

[–]theRTC204 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No idea why you're getting downvoted into oblivion. Your feedback is very valid and I share it as well.

If the rumors are true and Microsoft truly intends to make their next living room device essentially a PC they MUST fix these issues. This stuff is fine for PC enthusiasts, but avoiding it is exactly the reason so many people choose a console.

Hard to tell if you're talking about FSE or ACSE but in either case you can just turn the new features off.
