    i hope u did that right after they lowered their 1Gbps pricing due to the new high end tier speeds haha
  2. jaybee83
    nice, they definitely have a fixed spot on my build shopping list 😋

    quite the depressing perspective if you ask me 😅if this trend continues, our forum will be more reminiscing about "the good ol days" and keeping classic, EOL DTRs alive rather than discussing current tech (aside from bitchin about it, of course lol)

    well, naturally, drivers will stop being optimized for older os plus newer hardware wouldnt be supported anymore. i think the aspect we mostly despise is increased telemetry and junk running in the background / causing additional OS bloat without actually being actively utilized by the user.
  5. jaybee83
    yep, no need for an additional monitor and yep again, main limitation for egpu performance is bus bandwith and latency, add to that the sometimes anemic nature of the mobile cpu in question, which cannot keep up with the monster desktop cards...

    what makes u say that? will we thus end up with two crappy OS versions in a row instead of alternations? 😂

    yessssssss, lets get all those NBR refugees united again under the new NBT roof. glad you found us, enjoy the new fledgling forum! we can use all the help we can get 🙂

    dude are those 18(!) fans im counting?! LOL what kinda case is that? here i thought i was the only one nuts enough to go with 14 fans (17 if gpu ends up watercooled or if you count the three gpu shroud fans when aircooled) in the build im planning 😂😁👌🏼

    im actually using nvidia inspector to generate a batch file that i automatically run at windows startup. the batch file forces the 980M to lowest possible voltages and clocks no matter the load (completely fine for desktop usage) and thus severely limits its power usage. i manually tested what kinda clocks i can get away with, if u go too low u start seeing graphical glitches and/or stutters.

    give them some time to expand, theyre barely getting off the ground atm. im routing for them and what they stand for, lets hope this is the start of something grand 🙂

    they actually have an LTSC build available, if u wanna check that out: https://phoenixliteos.com/19044-1566-LTSC-Plus/ as for Win11, the closest to LTSC would be the latest Pro Plus build: https://phoenixliteos.com/22621-169Plus/

    i absolutely insist on delidding that chip! 😃✌🏼 btw, new upload from GN comparing the TG contact frame at 35 bucks vs. Thermalright frame at 4.35 bucks from AliExpress *lulz* surprisingly, they are statistically performing the same even though tolerances on the TR frame are way higher. however, installation needs much more finesse and skill to get it just right.

    impressive progress! just goes to show how much leeway is left in terms of wide tolerance manufacturing of laptop cooling...
  14. jaybee83
    the MUX provides more performance though, since routing the signal through the igpu as in hybrid mode robs u of significant fps in games...
  15. jaybee83
    dude hes gonna be over the moon!
  16. jaybee83
    of course bro papu, i chose "acceptable" as the description of choice because "good" or "awesome" wouldve been way too positive a connotation 😂
  17. jaybee83
    duuuuude that looks gorgeous, its soooooooooo wiiiiiiiiiiide 😂
  18. jaybee83
    LOL, word! Jay is funny and knowledgeable in certain things, i.e. hands on experience with watercooling, but sometimes hes not quite on the money imho. id rather trust moores law is dead on this one, stating that the MAJORITY OF MINING GPUS HASNT EVEN STARTED TO HIT THE MARKET YET! meaning: were still at the BEGINNING of the gpu price crash LOL seriously guys, if this continues i might just grab a dirt cheap 3090ti as a "holdover" placeholder gpu until 40 series is out, widely available and all partners have released their lineup 😂 oh the irony! hahaha
  19. jaybee83
    true, drama sells clicks n views. but still, better to be aware than be caught off guard.
  20. jaybee83
    MS stays true to its crappy/acceptable cycle 😂 win95 - crappy win98 - acceptable winME - crappy XP/2000 - acceptable Vista - crappy win7 - acceptable win8/8.1 - crappy win10 - acceptable win11 - crappy so as you can see, were exactly according to plan, in the middle of a crappy os cycle! 🤪
  21. jaybee83
    well, sometimes the solution is as simple as it is unexpected 😋 glad it was such a straightforward thing!
  22. jaybee83
    hmmm yep same here, no access
  23. jaybee83
    hmmm....im willing to be enlightened as to what exactly makes the nothing phone so special, aside from clever marketing and hype train going choo choo 🤔 admittedly, the design is unusual and something that stands out in a crowd, but thats not enough for me to pull my wallet out.... any special software functionality and/or update policy? accessories? support for custom roms?
  24. jaybee83
    cmon u tease, tell us the price 🤪 the neo g9 has been my target monitor for quite a while now, until the neo g8 got released 😋 i decided to go for a more "standard" 16:9 ratio vs ultrawide but man the neo g9 is a beast to be reckoned with! which firmware are u running? also, what settings are u using? calibrated or not? give us da deetz!
  25. jaybee83
    if anyone is interested, i can highly recommend Team Phoenix decrapified windows builds: https://phoenixliteos.com/ quite lightweight and performant, i installed a full lite OS win 11 build for my lady's machine and its been running quite smoothly!
