I don't think there was a single party I attended in high school where Rock Band or Guitar Hero wasn't present. Such a great party game for players and spectators alike. The younger generations are really missing out.

Shadow of the Colossus was barely even a game, it was art. I don't think I even played it for more than 20 hours total but just a simple masterpiece.

Doesn't Radeon Super Resolution work at the driver level and work with anything? I normally play games on a few year delay so that might be a dealbreaker if not the case

Yeah, I play at native 1440p. I only have a 75hz monitor so I'm not getting crazy fps anyway.

 

Currently using a 1440p 27", looking at upgrading to a 4K model mostly for dev work. I do occasionally game though but only have an rx6600 which obviously can't handle native 4K gaming. I'm wondering though if I just make use of FSR/Radeon Super Resolution I should be able to at a minimum get the same picture quality I'm getting right now with no loss in performance. Is that right?

How do these exist but I'm still not able to find a 2560x1600 resolution monitor

As far as charging goes there are only 3 USB-C cables.

  • 60W - All USB-C to USB-C cables can do at least 60W in the form of 20V 3A
  • 100W (Deprecated) - USB PD 3.0 introduced up to 100W charging using 20V 5A. Cables need an EPR (Extended power range) marker in order to allow this
  • 240W - USB PD 3.1 extended the limit to 240W via 48V 5A. These cables have a 240W EPR marker.

All USB-C devices are supposed to support one of these three modes. HOWEVER, some cheaper devices don't actually support the USB PD protocol, and only support legacy USB charging. For these you need a USB-A to USB-C cable or adapter. USB-C ports won't provide power unless both devices are able to negotiate

I've never even heard of Crodino until this post. Might need to see if I can find some, sounds interesting

Interesting twist! I have to say though the best Whiskey Sour I’ve ever had comes from Suderman

  • 1.5oz Bourbon
  • .5oz Apple Brandy like Laird’s BiB
  • 1oz Lemon Juice
  • .5oz 2:1 Simple
  • .5oz Velvet Falernum
  • 1 Egg White or other foaming agent

Reverse dry shaken, and then a bunch of Angostura drops on top of the foam of the finished drink.

Yeah, mostly just want the ultrawide for work. Don’t game super frequently, but don’t want it to be a blurry mess when I do

 

Currently rocking two 1440p 27" monitors. My job is offering me $500 for home office improvements, so I'm looking at swapping one for a 34" 21:9 ultrawide. My brother got a LG 34GP83A-B two years ago and loves it. Is that still the best option? It'd be used mostly for programming, but I like to play a variety of games here and there. Looked at a few newer Dell Ultrasharps but they're more expensive and reviews say their bad for gaming due to motion blur.

I hate the "5K2K" nomenclature. Why not just ultrawide 2160p.

Does look like a nice monitor though.

Anyone have any experience with the ExpertBook line? I've only ever heard recs for Lenovo's and HP's business lines.

So Intel is following AMD now with a super confusing naming scheme?
