the price will be much lower then and the technology mature enough I have dreamed of that day and i guess prices have come down already, so yes, i'm waiting for that breakthrough. I've also been hankerin for battery tech to evolve and i think it has with LiFePo4 :) Who cares about weight in a...

Hey man; sorry for not getting back sooner. Honestly, i've been goin through some 'stuff' that has me in burnout mode - to the point where i'm just going to save my money and decide on all this alt. energy at some point down the road. I've love the idea of solar power but i'm not...

My entire plan may take me back to a gas, maybe propane, powered inverter generator - as i can't find any of these solar generators that Do Not require a freakin 'app', for their firmware updates! I've never used bluetooth or wi fi and never owned any device that required it. This revelation has...

You said that right. it's hard but i try not to read or watch the marketing pitches and i understand about run times; basically the fewer low draw items connected, the longer the power station will run them before it depletes. I like that they do have monitors so you can see what taking up you...

Hey y'all, I am about to buy a lifPo4 battery power station for use during a power outage. I've given up on the idea of running my window AC in the summer - i'll make do with ice and a fan. In the winter, i'll use a portable propane heater. During an outage i would love to keep my PC going for...

. UPDATE Okay, I bought the MSI G274QPX display. Getting close to setting up the PC and try to have my old one next to it. I made a false assumption and thought i was getting 3 140mm front case fans - it came with only ONE in the center, a 120 in the rear and the kraken radiator exhausting out...

Now i'm hearing that since 1080p is 24hz - i need a refresh rate that is a multiple of 24Hz. If thats true then i would get a 144Hz monitor. Is this a thing? Saw it on a BenQ monitor video where they said it was good for movies and for gaming.

Thanks, yes that's what i'm seeing as well - and windows is apparently optimized for RGB subpixel layouts, so using windows display size scaling and clear type should work and help matters as well. i'm also seeing that some IPS have an issue with 'image retention'! one said he got that but it...

So far, the dell s2721dgf is the only one that incorporate a standard RGB subpixel layout, is uses more power, has below ideal contrast ration and then - something about sRGB that it lacked. There's always trade offs :/ I read too that your RGB subpixel layout does a much better job with text -...

Yep in this small town all we have is walmark. Office depot closed some time ago. Since you mentioned it, i'll run by wally world - they may have one set up. Gives me the idea too to find a local business and see what monitors they use. Oh, and not just any old IPS...it's gotta be Fast IPS :)...

Now i'm reading folks saying that IPS and OLED displays have an issue with the matte coating causing white pages to look dirty or whatever. Is that something we can get used to? Some also report poor text clarity...now i'm thinking about PPI again. oh well, i'm taking a break from this. I almost...
