It never seems to be the people who have actually used the mouse complaining about the port location.

A brief 1-2 minute charge nets you hours of use, it’s really not a big deal.

1. After you power the system on, does pressing the capslock key cause the corresponding light on the keyboard to change states?

2. Once the system is powered on, does the monitor and its backlight stay on? Or does it fall back to a “no signal” mode?

I’d be looking at a used 2070/Super or 3060/Ti in your situation.

If you’re on Windows, consider that you have a year of support left with Windows 10. You can buy further security updates from Microsoft, from 0patch, or with an “unsupported” Windows 11 upgrade. There’s also Linux if the games you want to play are supported :)

With that in mind, you can consider the alternative of limping along with what you’ve got and saving for the next year to do a more substantial upgrade / overhaul.

Even at the top end (RTX 4090) performance difference between PCI 3.0 and 4.0 is pretty negligible.

What framerate are you targeting?

I find it highly unusual that your CPU is reaching 100% in TF2 of all games.

Your system also shouldn’t be “unresponsive in general use” with these specifications.

Based on paper specifications alone, I’d be leaning towards the 3060/3070 as the most meaningful upgrade in gaming performance. However, I suspect there may be an issue with your software environment or an undiagnosed hardware issue.

Not even just parents though.

It also punishes people who go on vacation for a week, have a power outage, get engrossed by a different game, suffer any kind of longer term medical issue, etc. There are dozens of reasons someone could stop playing for a while.

It’s really a bullying mechanic that forces players to keep playing the game for fear of losing their stuff. People should be coming back because the gameplay is fun, not because of the threat of lost progress.

The mechanic would be much more appropriate if it were tied to actual time signed in to the game. I was looking forward to this game and was already going to wait for more polish anyways, but as long as this mechanic exists in its current state I’m completely turned off of it.

Can’t actually buy MacOS, you have to buy their hardware. For the time being connecting with an Apple Account is still fully optional.

As far as releasing these manuals and making parts available is concerned, we already have these laws going into effect in the US

This new system does not involve logging in to another machine with credentials. You send an invite, they accept.

Five Guys is the peanut oil place

The last two generations of Playstation and Xbox controllers have all used the same Alps joystick modules.

Elite Series 2 is the only exception I know of, I haven’t taken apart the Dualsense Edge so that one could be different too.

I have a gaming PC with an R7 5800X and an RTX 3080 hooked up to a 38” Ultrawide monitor

Since I got my Steam Deck, the PC setup mostly collects dust. Being able to lay on the couch and play games while watching TV shows with my SO became a lot more appealing than going into another room to sit upright at a desk. Games in bed while watching Saturday morning cartoons? Yes please!

As far as games are concerned, the majority of things run at acceptable framerates. For the exceptions, you can always stream from a PC over the network and the battery life is incredible when you play that way. This also applies to games with restrictive anti-cheat.

I’m pretty sure those ads also have to meet certain criteria though.

Using ABP, I’ve never had a popup ad, full page ad, auto-playing video, or other intrusive form of advertisement. The “acceptable ads” have been quiet and out of the way in what would otherwise be empty space.

With the understanding that some websites and content creators are entirely reliant on ad revenue, I prefer to have those filtered down to those that don’t provide a burdensome experience.

I will say that having a new tab open with a solicitation for a donation / “premium” every single update (so almost daily) is irritating and they better knock that shit off if they don’t want to alienate users.

Well, for starters, if you build it you can have whatever aesthetic you want. In the process, you’ll learn how all the pieces fit together and will be in a better position to perform your own repairs. You also get warranty terms of 3 or more years on the individual parts.

With an OEM Prebuilt, you’re usually limited to a one year warranty (in the US). Not all “office desktops” consist entirely of proprietary parts. Lenovo and Dell publish their service manuals, so you should be able to see if a system you are considering uses a standard ATX Power Supply (for example). Depending on your performance target, some RTX3050 cards will run entirely off of the 75W provided through the PCI slot. They’ll also have “office PCs” with graphics cards in them, meaning they’re technically fit for playing games even though they’re bot marketed as such. Ultimately, “Gamer” aesthetic is really just part of “Gamer” marketing.

It is, Secure boot and the TPM must both be enabled.

If you check Msinfo32 / “System Information” with admin rights, there is a “device encryption” listing that maybhave additional information.

There are rare instances where a device won’t support automatic encryption due to “Un-allowed DMA capable bus/device(s) detected” which requires a registry tweak to work around

It backs up to the Microsoft Account

Still, some people create an @outlook.com email, set up no recovery options, forget the password, and find themselves locked out.

[…] device encryption will be enabled by default when you first sign in or set up a device with a Microsoft account or work / school account.

For devices with a TPM, this has literally been the case since Windows 10 1803 back in 2018.
