Question Would you guys be concerned if your Pc is under a mini split

Post image

Unfortunately there is not much I can do and I don’t really have any other options to move it. It also can’t go on the floor because I have a 1 year old that may knock it down. Normally I wouldn’t be concerned but I know mini splits/ACs can cause water leakage over time if something is wrong. Not sure if I’m overthinking it but is anyone else in the same situation where there pc has to be there. Is there anything I should do for precaution?

Question How does it feel knowing the PC you built before hardware prices exploded will carry you for years?

Post image

With everything being so expensive right now especially with the whole RAM crisis going on how does it feel knowing that the system you built earlier is going to last you a long time? Do you still feel like your setup is missing key upgrades, or were you able to buy most of what you needed and say, "Alright, I'm set for the next 5 years"?

Question Bought this as a kid. Is it useful or just e-waste now?

Post image

I was cleaning out some old drawers and found this TP-Link Bluetooth 5.0 USB adapter that I bought when I was a kid.

Back then, I thought it worked like a standalone Bluetooth receiver that I could plug it into a TV, laptop, or pretty much anything and connect devices directly to the dongle. Needless to say, I didn't really understand how Bluetooth worked.

Now I've rediscovered it and I'm wondering if it still has any practical use in 2026. Is there anything interesting I can do with it, or has it basically become obsolete?

Question Please help me create a startup effect like this

8.0k Upvotes

I just came across this video in instagram and wondered if a startup effect like this is possible via nollie rgb? I lingered in Openrgb for sometime but couldn’t figure out any startup effect.

I also have a similar setup except the bottom intake and rear exhaust fans are from asiahorse and the side ones are from deepcool.

Question Are “gaming” chairs as bad as people make them out to be?

Post image
4.0k Upvotes

Genuine question; every post i’ve seen when researching good chairs to get for gaming says to get an office chair over any “gaming” chair due to the bad support/posture positions and cheapness of gaming chairs.

But would a good quality gaming chair be better than an office chair? Granted I don’t have the budget for a herman miller chair or anything that expensive.

The images are the ones I’ve looked at a little bit (not saying they’re the best for the price range, I haven’t put in too much research yet, would love some suggestions)

-cooler master caliber X2C (left)
-ergolux elite ergonomic mesh (right)

(both are a similar price where i am)

edit: sorry I haven’t been able to reply to every comment, a lot more comments then I was anticipating. That said while some people have found comfort in gaming chairs I can see that the general consensus is that office chairs are better especially for the price point. I will look into office chairs and most importantly try some out to see what fits me best :)
thank-you to everyone who helped!
