The biggest issue with frame generation is the input lag imo. I tried it on my 4070 Super and noped out and turned it off after a minute of…

Damn I was about to go do a price drop protectino claim but checked my Amazon account and I bought them for $1048 last year. Great cameras…

The drive you linked to is $716, which if you can't do maths very well, is over TWICE the price of this 10TB drive. How is that a better…

NAS drives vs every day computing drives.

I just checked on my older NAS where I move things when the "new" one is getting full - 70337 hours for 3 of the 4 WD Reds! The other one…

Thanks for the link! Very handy site to bookmark. It confirms this is the best deal WD NAS drive available so that’s good to know.

2 of my 4 are sitting at 39002 hours, 1 at 35620 hours, and the last at 33609 hours.

I've got 4 of them in my DS920+ and they're not "loud" whatsoever. Maybe in comparison to some other drives like you said, but to say…

Most people don't even need to activate windows these days, it's perfectly usable without it. Unless you're using Hyper V, Remote Desktop,…

Western Digital Red Plus 3.5" Hard Drive 10TB $339.02 Delivered @ Amazon US via AU
Good price on great NAS drives. While not all time low, getting anything close to this price per GB in NAS drives is near impossible. I've…

Price plays a part in how long is "reasonable" for it to last, correct.

Yeah if Sony products didn't have the sony brand name they'd have gone out of business by now. Almost all of their products are…

Yeah I do wish the ACLs would provide some sort of guidance for regular categories of products, by price point. You wouldn't really expect…

Technically it's not a set 1 year either - under ACL it's a "reasonable amount of time" for the product that you bought. For electronics…

Can't hurt to try, but probably unlikely since $2k lasting 6 years is probably within the "expected lifetime" of a tv for that price.

People don’t run them overnight because it’s a petrol engine that sounds like a car idling at 3000rpm. It’s loud and you’d get a…

If you’re gaming and don’t care about DLSS you’re doing it wrong. It gives you better performance at basically either no visual loss…

It’s game streaming so it has the downsides of that - latency, image quality, etc.

DLLS upscaling is amazing and should IMO be the “default” for gaming. It legitimately produces better results than native resolution…

Only if you're sailing the old way. These days with things like Overseer you have all the recommendations and info available right there.
