I’m on year 4 of my Kodiaq and it’s been a great experience overall. Not sure what I’ll do as the lease runs out in April and tbh…

Nah he’s actually right though. Mazda interiors look alright in press photos but I find them pretty cheap feeling up close imo

Man you guys are a precious bunch

Looking for 2x48gb ddr5 for a nested vcf/AI rig running am5 and a 8700g. Should I just go for the cheapest nastiest cl I can get (no gaming…

Thanks. Would prefer nvme but I’m guessing I’ll really need u2 if I want high endurance

Looking for something for cache for my unraid server. Any recommendations ?

You won't get high speeds on 4 sticks. Best bet is 2x32gb CL30/6000. Infinity fabric doesn't like much above 6000 anyway from the reading…

At 123 bucks for the 2tb, it’s worth a roll of the dice. Let’s be clear - if it’s important enough to you then you should be backing…

Got it from the outlet. Was a 'refurb'...most likely a return

Depends on your use case. the S34 will have a higher refresh rate which is better for gaming, but I thought VA's look terribly washed out…

I have one of these and have recently upgraded to a U3425WE. First up, this is an excellent monitor that I have owned since 2015. I tried…

Yeah, I ordered a U7 pro pretty early so will be interesting to see when they end up shipping. Not in a huge hurry but I'm not a big fan of…

Yeah I might be able to swing it at 400 but 800 bucks? Cmon Ubiquiti, that's really taking the piss. That Horaco unit seems like its cheap…

What did you go with? Looking at something similar. Paying 800 for a dashboard view is not a good use of money.

Yeah ubiquiti are overcharging here. Be interested to see if there are some cheaper options

How are these compared to the xm5s?

Yeah I bought it for a dual gaming/productivity monitor and I couldn’t stand it personally. Ended up replacing it with a 32 which is a…

Oh for sure - but if you pick it up early enough it’s not much of a hassle to send it back. Dells qc can be questionable but at least the…

I ended up buying both to try. I went back to the widescreen as that worked better for me even though text clarity/panel quality was better…

Gaming/productivity focus. Dells Warranty and returns process is best in class, imo

I’ve bought about 5 “refurbs” in the last year from dell and they’ve been all like new.

I’d be looking at the dell ultra sharp U3223QE or the lg ultra fine which both have usb c. The dell is probably too expensive tho.i…

Yep - they’re fine for most people who have no choice in the matter, where the cheapest unit is going to win out over other features (if…

See my post below. Subjective obviously, but I’d seriously try and take a look at a VA in store to see if you like it. I thought they…

These are VA panels. I was looking to replace my u3415w with something more modern and thought I’d give va a try (got the s3423dwc model)…

Fantastic price. I bought at 1500 and been really happy with it (was coming from an aw 34 dwf Wish id waited tho, had jb gift cards :(

I picked this up in the last deal - works great.

I echo your sentiment to stay away from oled for productivity. I actually have the 32 (and owned the first gen 34) and it looks worse then…

Anyone compared this with the g model? Have it on order but wondering if I should go for the g. Work use mostly. G has better specs except…

Im coming from a uw3415w. My work is office docs and teams. That’s it Haven’t used a va before and have owned plenty of ips so was just…
