You could probably get a better monitor at a good will, or any dumpster near a college dorm.

I finally figured out that you can control how corsair RGB ram behaves when the software is off and the computer is asleep. The lighting you set with “full software control off” is what it does while asleep. Out of the box it was green when asleep and 5x as bright. Like “this is actually a problem for movies” bright lol.

SkyeAuroline posted:...who the hell came up with right-side intakes? About the worst placement I can think of for one (and more intake with even less exhaust is the last thing the average PC needs...). Ah well. Looks pretty bad and the vertical mount GPU just makes the issue worse, but I'm sure they'll sell boatloads because Corsair. Used to be quality hardware, at least. You want less intake then exhaust? Why? If you have more intake then exhaust then the case will have positive pressure which prevents dust from being pulled in where filters are missing. (like pci slots) The case has 6 fans in and 4 fans out. Seems great to me. You don't need to vertically mount the GPU. Its not required in any way. Are we looking at the same case? https://www.amazon.com/Corsair-5000...962037350&psc=1 Gamers Nexus rather liked it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lU_qa49gHzw spunkshui fucked around with this message at 03:48 on Mar 1, 2021 |

SalTheBard posted:My Wife and I bought a house and I was hell bent on making it the smartest loving house in Kansas. I had so many grandious ideas on what I wanted to do, but after seeing how loving difficult it is to manage 2 smart light switches and 1 smart light bulb I said "gently caress that poo poo." I can't tell you how often I come out for a simple "Ok Google, turn on light" and I get "Sorry that switch is not responding" so I have to go over, restart the switch, etc etc, so I just said forget it! I have never "restarted" my eve smart switch. I dont even know If I can. I'm having a lot of success with a hue + apple tv. I even have one smart switch that has a smart bulb on the end and both work exactly how you would hope they work at all times. Still renting so I didn't want to change out all the switches but I'm moving this summer to a house and I wanted to test out a light switch. I'm shocked my wife puts up with most light switches not working but we have apple watches so siri is always right there. Being able to turn the whole house off and on or dimming the lights for tv/gamming is super fun. I mostly use modes, like "day mode" for blue lights and "night mode" for warm lights. Bedtime mode makes all lights 1% and turns a fan on in the 2 bedrooms  I want to smart all the things! But god does it suck if you lose internet at your house lol. Smart switches will fix that though so im pumped to just go ham on smart poo poo. spunkshui fucked around with this message at 05:30 on May 21, 2022 |

Still moving but got the QN90A mini LED 75 inch up yesterday. Still need to manage wires and find our computer speakers. Finally have the mega desk of my dreams.      The RGB tubes are these: https://www.amazon.com/Corsair-LS10...cs%2C102&sr=1-1 They can run off a commander core XT or the box that comes with the starter kit but the XT lets you avoid having a DC power brick. spunkshui fucked around with this message at 22:41 on Jul 17, 2022 |

I finally bothered swapping my wife's corsair "lighting node" designed to go on a desk for one meant to go inside the computer. No more DC power brick cable sneaking out the back of the computer! As a bonus I was able to get it bundled with some ridiculous RGB tiles that I wanted to try. Edit: I have been instructed to get more tiles lol https://www.amazon.com/Corsair-LC10...208&sr=1-1&th=1 (click for big)    https://i.imgur.com/XSxnEeg.mp4 Need to set up some Spooktober RBG now.

My current system has a problem.  As you can see there are clearly still things that don't glow. Thank God we as a society can solve this grave issue.   Glass off:   Glass on:  Nightmare fuel: the back side of my case is also glass and only held with magnets on a hinge.  spunkshui fucked around with this message at 01:02 on Jul 20, 2023 |

Head Bee Guy posted:Wouldnt you have to go to the basement to turn it on? You just get an external power button for your computer. I have one because my computer used to be on the ground and my toddler used to press the power button while I was teaching on zoom. Even though my computer is now on my desk it’s really convenient. Also, my case never had a hard drive LED so I wired the power LED to be the hard drive LED.

Triikan posted:Get some arm mounts, you won't regret it. Truth. Once I did my home computers, I immediately got some for my classroom monitors. like 20-30$ gives you all you need for most monitors under 30 inches like those. You can even find dual monitor poles at those prices. Same thing for putting a Tv on a wall, totally worth it.

owl_pellet posted:I'm starting a new mostly-remote job in a couple of weeks so I'm in the market for a new desk. I currently have a little cramped computer desk and I hate it. I'm looking for something that can comfortably accommodate a laptop that will be mostly docked and closed, at least two decent-sized (~24") monitors, and whatever equipment I would need to switch control of the monitors, keyboard, and mouse between the laptop for work and my personal desktop for other uses. I would guess something that big would essentially be a butcher block with no drawers, which would be fine, but bonus points if it has at least a wide middle drawer and a filing drawer. I grabbed a massive butcher block countertop from ikea and two Alex drawers. Well, two countertops, and three Alex drawers, because we have two desks next to eachother. Glorious 13 feet of wood and 15 drawers
