  1. Where are some safe places to download wallpapers for our computers?
  2. Well, my last purchases were, a shower, vanity, drywall, plaster and paint for our basement reno. Finally getting it done and back to useable. Got 90 percent of the equipment for the home gym, music room, bar, recroom and kitchen now. Just need to get it finished up in the next few weeks. Cannot wait now. Progress is happening thankfully. Been a mess since labour day last year when the sewer backup happened. Need to buy replacement speakers, receiver, a mount for my projector and a new motorized 100" screen we are mounting in the ceiling for movie nights. It will decend right in front of our tv for times when we want the theater experience.
  3. I am trying to get a larger power supply installed in my desktop to add a faster video card to it and I was going to take the 2070 super in it now and move to an egpu box for on the road video editing. Now, this depends on if we get a new motorhome this year or not. If we do, I think I am going to hard mount the egpu and a NAS system somewhere inside. I can connect my notebook to both and work that way. We will see what happens soon!
  4. They only gaming system I would consider is the razer. It's just a normal sleek notebook. No wedge shapes, no angles etc. Just sleek smooth design.
  5. sipping some Nova Scotia Tidal Bay wine, some rock bud, and listening to these guys!
  6. Yes it does. I have some other things I need to spend 1500 bucks on right now, but my next notebook will have dedicated graphics for creation 100 percent!
  7. Oh, I know. But my system is on irisXe graphics. It's fine, but would having a 3070 or something in it would be awesome. I am just wondering if a egpu would be a good choice to take with me on the road.
  8. A new reason to put some cool recording equipment into my music room! ha ha!
  9. That's exactly what I had in mind when you said nature music. I have to give that a shot for sure. I might even take my digital recorder to some places around here for some sound effects
  10. You have me intrigued. Nature music. Got an example I can listen to? As long as it's not current pop/hip hop apple'efied crap, I am in!
  11. Nah, I appreciate his ideas, but I am in the build a beast mood...Maybe not the SE board beast, but I am in a tinkering mood. Buying one is a very smart option. To anyone else out there, do not do what I am going to do. ha ha!
  12. I agree. I have two. I may goto a wide screen but i'm using 2 24 inch dells now and they are doing great.
  13. I am not sure the ProArt line has the same set of issues you are talking about since it's directed at a different audience. I am not going to be using RGB much etc. more in a professional studio environment. I am not sure if this changes anything or not?
  14. The wife is like myself now. She wants that fractal case in white. ha ha. Who am I to say no?
  15. You are like me. I WANT to use their stuff as it is great for my use case. However, I am very scared because of my previous experience with them. I hope they shape up now. I would love to have a complete pro art setup for us.
  16. I was somewhat confused with your comment if it was legit or a dig at me...that's all. If was the former, I appolgise! Music production is fun and a great way to generate income.
  17. That's it. I worked my entire life from the time I was 16, and it's time to start spending time with my family. We have the income right now to do it...Nice dig btw.
  18. I was thinking of the biggest xeon. I am flip flopping, of course on just using the pro art z790 board again now. I want the beast, but I LOVE LOVE LOVE that fractal north case and that keeps drawing me in to have a modern wooden trimmed case on my workstation. We are building a new studio here on the property about 14x18 with all our creative gear in it. It will be a workspace for my family to create and enjoy together. We are bringing elements of wood, metal and soft textures to the inside of the building to make it a relaxing enjoyable space. My wife and I are going to have matching workstations so, the North case is the logical choice. Her computer will not have as powerful internals as mine but it will basically look the same but hers will be the white model and mine will be the black. We will have a filming section with nice sofa and lighting to give a truly professional feel to our work, and when clients come into the studio they have a nice comfortable place to talk and relax as well. We will have our notebooks for working on the road when we go and work at our workstations when home. It's been a long drawn-out process to get all our stuff up and running. But the finish line is about 3 months off. I have gotten my schedule at Bell changed to 6 on / 8 off in order to focus my time more on my family and our work moving forward. It's coming together but slowly. I will have pics of some stuff soon!
  19. Wow, I will fire mine up on my tablet and see what gives. I don't use tables and stuff in onenote, but I will try to see if I can add it. Report back. I will also try it on my iPad too!
  20. Agreed. I cannot stand lights flashing everywhere all the time. Plus, 99 percent of the case designs look like a transformer helmet. My lowly old inspiron looks clean, and does it's job. I do wish I had a dedicated graphics card in it for a little bit faster 4k rendering in resolve and other programs like that, but when I am mobile it does it's job, without looking like an anime cartoon.
  21. Not so, They have been doing this for years. It's just now that Gamers Nexus and a few others are calling them out that they are changing their ways.
  22. I thought OneNote on my Motorola phone was quite good. Funny how other people view apps. I just got my son a new 9th gen iPad to replace his 6th gen. It's quite a bit bigger than I thought it would be. He's enjoying that as well.
  23. I was looking at finsix previously but it's looks as if they are gone awol, and the few available on ebay want 185 dollars shipping. Everything available now are USB C chargers, I need the Dell barrel charger end as well.
  24. I purchased a CYD travel charger for my dell notebook, and it works great. I want two more for my wife's and son's notebooks now. the same plug at the end etc. But they are not listed on amazon anymore. Anyone know of a good quality travel charger that is similar to mine now? just a wall wart and single cord, unlike the regular charger that is two cables and a big block. thanks!
