Windows keeps asking me to set it up and I’m not sure if there’s any real benefit. Does it make signing in easier/faster or is it basically just another thing to configure? Any downsides or annoying stuff with it?
Been looking at getting a headset for PS5 and keep seeing people talk about mic quality, but how much does it actually matter? Like if the mic sounds decent and people can understand you, is that enough or does a better mic make a pretty noticeable difference?
Mostly gonna use it for party chat and some multiplayer, not streaming or making videos. Don’t really care about sounding professional, just don’t want teammates complaining that I sound like I’m talking through a microwave lol.
Also does the headset itself matter more than the mic, or are there some cheaper headsets with surprisingly good mics? Been comparing a few around the $50-100 range and the mic specs are kinda confusing.
Would appreciate some real experience with this. Is mic quality one of those things you notice immediately, or something most people don’t really care about as long as your voice is clear?
My current screen works fine but it’s nothing special, and I’m wondering if having two screens would actually be more useful for gaming, browsing, Discord, videos, etc. At the same time I could spend the money on a better primary monitor with higher refresh rate/resolution. Not sure which is the better upgrade tbh. What would you guys pick and why?
Mine’s starting to get pretty dusty inside and I wanna clean it without messing up the fans or accidentally damaging something. Do you guys usually use compressed air, an electric air duster, or just a soft brush? Also should I unplug everything and remove the GPU first, or is it fine to clean it while most parts are still installed? Kinda worried about static and spinning the fans too fast with air. Any tips for doing this safely would be appreciated, especially for a first time cleaning.
Got a PS5 Pro and now I’m wondering if my TV is kinda holding it back. Games look good but I keep seeing people talk about 120Hz, VRR, HDMI 2.1, better HDR etc and now I’m thinking maybe I’m not getting the full benefit of the Pro lol. Is there a big difference between using a regular 4K TV and one with all the newer features? What should I actually be looking for if I wanna make the most out of the PS5 Pro without spending a stupid amount? Also does OLED vs mini LED really matter for gaming or is that mostly just picture quality stuff? Any advice on what features are actually worth caring about would be appreciated.
Seeing CPUs with way more cache than others and people keep saying cache can make a big difference for gaming, but how much are we actually talking? Like is a CPU with more L3 cache noticeably better in games, or is it mostly just small benchmark gains? Does it help more with FPS, 1% lows, stuttering, or certain types of games? Also wondering if it matters more at 1080p vs 1440p/4K. Trying to figure out if paying extra for a CPU with more cache is actually worth it for gaming or if I should just focus on cores/clocks instead.
Been looking at getting a 120Hz monitor for my PS5 but I mostly play single-player stuff like story games, RPGs etc. Not really playing competitive shooters or anything.
Is 120Hz actually worth it for single-player games? Do most of them even take advantage of it, or would I be better off saving the money and getting a good 60Hz display with better picture quality?
