Ok my mom doesnt want it bwcause its made by Asus and Online, any way to get some info on Asus (besides the site, just for her to look at or something, since shes never heard of it, like outside info...yea...)

My mom also wants to buy a laptop, but with this graphicsw card.

Is it good/ the same/ better?

Don't trust your mom, she has no idea what she's talking about.
Asus is a huge company and it has high quality products. It was also the 1st company to offer a fan control program for the 4850/70 fans.

Asus makes mainboards for dell , gateway , hp , compaq, acer, thosiba .

so it was one small step for them to make notebooks themselfs .
2 years warranty worldwide .
excellent service .

Well my mom lowered her standards daily from 1k, to 900, to 800, and it ended up at 650.

My mom is gay like this, and also doesnt care for anything said here. Ya i know, thats pretty bitch like.

Eveen though Asus is very good.
Well,

K i got this.

Any recommendations on the Screen Res i should use on WoW? All are either too blurry or too sharp and small which makes the edges rough. (That might not make sense, i was always bad at art...)

And is the Graphics bad/ok/good and what level of graphics of everything should i run wow at?

>>Any recommendations on the Screen Res i should use on WoW?

The max supported by your laptop/screen, 1280 x 800.

>>And is the Graphics bad/ok/good and what level of graphics of everything should i run wow at?

Whatever looks best and still gets decent frames per second, 30+.

Gracias, and what about multisampling?

I should set it to? I have no idea what it even is.

And the 1280x800 makes the action bars kinda small, and not across the whole screen, take a gander (Funny word ;))

They look normal to me.

Eh im just used to having the gryphon part on the edges of the screen. Well another prob is that names of players or anything for that matter are grainy and blurry until im pretty much right next to them, any ideas on why this is? (And the multisampling q)

The graphics card is a high-end mid-range one. I do believe.

    Hmm, how do I change my signature?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    @tom_mai78101 I must be blind. If I go on my profile I don't see any area to edit the signature; If I go to account details (settings) I don't see any signature area either.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
