    You are not being paranoid at all. Do whatever makes you feel safe. I took mine off as we have a smaller population here. I can see how heat triggers anxiety. I was out in the evening, my core temps are still up (maybe due to the beer I was drinking as well), but I don't feel good today. Stay safe and happy!

    I don't know. 36 deg c, feels like 42 deg c is a bit too much for here. It's bonkers hot. I feel like I live in Australia right now. We sat out and removed some consumables from the fridge and container in our garage (😉) and it was HOT then, and we were in the evening shade. The ole' heat pumps are working hard to keep us cool inside. Yes, Canada is on fire right now. ALOT of fires this year. Everything in the backcountry here is extremely dry and combustible.

    I have watched/read a few reviews on it, and they said that it's basically silent. So, I dunno, if I don't like it I will return it and get the ProArt Graphics card.

    I use dual monitors for photo/video/graphics work. Alot of my software takes advantage of dual monitor setups where as "splitting the screen" with a large monitor would not work the same. Now, I am just used to dual. I have email and phone link open on one, and then either office, browser etc open on the other. I don't really game. Maybe play decenders or forza every now and then. I went back and forth before ordering the stand with should I get a 43" tv, or a 38" ultra wide, but using my dual 24"s are fine, and I keep my touchscreen for editing which I like alot better than mouse inputs.

    I will get a couple more. This is the only one I have right now, and my freakin iphone set to the screen brightness, and I didn't catch it and was in a rush.

    Yes, the hyperencode was an awesome feature that I was looking at. it crushed everything for creative workloads because of it. Not the "best" at gaming but thats only a 1 percent use case for my pc.

    Like I said, it won't be for awhile yet. I will be using the asus proart z790 and Noctua 4080. Tech notice did a very similar build as well.

    have intel deep six'ed their entire graphics card plans? Or have they just stop selling their own branded version. They had alot of promise for creatives like myself.
  9. kojack
    yep. white case, brown and tan Noctua inside. Even the cables, ram etc will all be brown/tan.

    I talked about it a bit, but I am just waiting until we get some more income coming in from our business. I am planning on a new fractal North case, ProArt build.

    I am always here. Every morning I check in, and fart around. Life is busy for sure. Enjoy the family brother! My lowly 2070 super can't hold a candle to the 4090, but as time goes on, it will be replaced with my beast I am going to start building soon! ha ha.

    I am going to come back to this one. Anyone know how I could figure out how to get a 1080 panel on this system?

    Here's a look at the completed new dual monitor stand. it's dark I know. I had crappy light, plus my iPhone used the screens to judge the picture. You can see my wifes dell inspiron 11 3000 doing it's updates too.

    Not really, but thanks a million for the suggestions. I use wallpaperhub.app for a bunch but lately I am liking graphic / cgi wallpapers. I have one now that is pretty cool and spanned across my two screens. I would like to find more like it. I will keep investigating places. thanks again!

    I just installed my vivo dual monitor stand on my desk with my 2 24 inch dells. It works awesome. Having the monitor angled towards me and adjusted to the proper height is great for my work setup. I cannot wait to get editing on them and creating content for my clients and myself. it's TIME! Any questions about the dual stand I will try my best to answer them.

    I was doing some build write ups and the site only lets me post one photo etc. I think it needs to allow much more than one photo to be posted per thread. I don't want to have to go find third party hosting services, I would like like to drop a few photos into my threads easy peasy. Can this be added to the site? thanks!

    I am just circling back to this for a min. I am setting up my Sanyo PLV-Z1 again in our basement once we get the reno's completed (next week hopefully) and I am getting a motorized 100" 16x9 screen to drop down from the ceiling when we want movie night. My friend and I will countersink the screen into the ceiling and get it all set up and get a mount for the projector. The screen will drop right in front of my 55" Samsung oled tv. I won't be using it for computer work, just watching movies and the scattered hockey game when my son is visiting on weekends. Should be fun.

    Do you think a core i3-2367M with 4gb of ram and SSD will run the newer linux distros with some success? it' has intel 4000 graphics as well.

    new xps 15 2-in-1

    kojack replied to Light's topic in XPS

    I would say yes. The 16 2 in 1 is the closest model now.
  20. kojack
    Let us know how it works out for you!

    I would love to have a quad boot system. 8tb drive sectioned into 2tb for each system. Win 11, Chrome OS, MacOS and linux of some flavor. Would be a fun system for sure.

    They are really thin and light. I love them. For the money, I have not seen anything that I like as much. If money were not an issue, I would probably be rocking an Asus ProArt 16 or Razer 16. But, my trusty 14" two in one from dell with a few upgrades works for me now!. As for the old acer, it's a carbon copy of my other sons macbook air. Just as thin and light, screen resolution is the same, has more upgradability with an extra ram slot and 2.5 inch ssd / hdd bay. I am going to format that and put linux on it. I was going to do a hackintosh, but screw that.

    You can see my notebook, and my sons two in this thread. The wife's was absent from that photo as I was replacing the screen in his dell. Mine is center, his old acer that still chugs along nicely is on the left, and his new to him (my old) dell is on the right with it's new touchscreen, 16gb of ram and a 500gb ssd.
  24. kojack
    I do. But the site here is very picky about how many you can post.

    There is a youtube video on converting gnome to a very "macOS style" setup. I think I am going to try that and see how it goes.
