Totally a fair ask - I'm not sure this would be entirely appropriate but I'm very happy to provide some high level stuff. As a disclaimer - I largely look at resumes/interview candidates that have been prescreened by our recruiting team. With that said, they're really just looking for what...

I also posted here back in the mid 2000s and now also handle hiring... it's painful seeing some of the resumes that cross my desk.

The very short review is that I got what I paid for. The power cable connection is loose out of the box, so slight jostles turn the screen off. Sometimes I need multiple power cycles for it to pick up a signal from HDMI/DP. It used to make an awful screeching noise. There is constant...

For work: For fun: And to keep everything running (now with an added UPS):

Validated it through Ryzen Master to start, then set in BIOS (upped multiplier to 42 and manually set voltage/infinity fabric/memory).

Thanks Dan_D ! Appreciate the input.

Played through the demo - VERY reminiscent of Descent! Looks good and runs reasonably well (60fps average) on low settings with my rig (granted, at 3440x1440).

The cacodemon is by far the most important part, but no :P The keyboard is a frankenstein of 3 CM Storm tenkeyless boards. Red switches/PCB in base of a broken brown switch model with keycaps and top from a separate broken brown switch model.

A slight upgrade arrived on my desk today :D

Just ordered... snagged for $599CAD so a killer price! Should arrive in a week or two :| It arrived. It kind of works. Would not recommend, spend the extra money and get something that won't make you want to punch your wall. The screen quality is fantastic, but whatever they're using for a...

Somehow this has lasted through seven moves since I bought it. The screw holes are long since gouged out, but otherwise still going strong!

Happy new year! Here's the working-from-home/gaming/podcasting setup!
