I've been meaning to try Plex. I should look into it :jbhmm:



I only have a Surfacebook as a laptop. I guess I can try it, but I'm thinking it might not be powerful enough. But, maybe :lupe:

This shyt is annoying though. I'm starting to think it isn't worth all this effort. :patrice:

-----------------


Thanks for both of your help though. :cheers:

Just put the file on your gaming pc and stream it to your firetv or whatever you use. That chip will be strong enough.

I had stuff on my HD and watched it in while in Brazil, it's legit and free

There better be a i9 in there. Why get a 1070 ti for a 2300 build :scust:
Look at this build - System Builder - Core i9-7900X 3.3GHz 10-Core, GeForce GTX 1080 8GB ACX 3.0, S340 (Matte White/Purple) ATX Mid Tower - PCPartPicker

This is exactly how you don't build a pc a ryzen 7 2700x for a 2300 build with a almost 200 dollar aio when a 120mm radiator would be enough to reach 4.2., almost 200 dollar case. Small size SSD, 16gb of ram for editing. This is a 1500-1600 bulid at best. Who finessed this man


@Dualistic Embodiment

Build a Ryzen 5 system. New gamers will not know the difference between 120hz and 144hz. You'll be able to upgrade in the future too if you'd like.

I also suggest you always want to certain your build around the monitor you are playing has a new gamer I would recommend you get a 1080 144hz monitor (200) or a 1440/144hz monitor (300)
If you get the first monitor option get a amd rx 580 8gb (270 or less check for reddit buildapcsales) or 1060gb (280 or less check same reddit place)
If you get the second monitor option get a rx vega 56 (do not pay more than 450), or 1070 (do not pay more than 400)

Did you put a 120mm AIO radiator on a i9 10 core proc?

:martin:

Paying for a premium CPU and then throwing some cheap shyt cooling on it, is not the way to go.

I know for a fact he wasn't overclocking it and @Ciggavelli i9 7900x has a 120mm aio, which he hasn't complained about.
120mm aio is the same has a decent air cooler. It only makes a difference once you start to overclock your cpu and need
stability that a 240/280/360 and higher radiators/aio are necessary

I am heavy into watercooling and overclock, don't disrespect me. Owned all brand Aio's and custom loop's. :gucci:

Its not just Apple also the dell xps 15 i9 throttles
True but the apple is worse and for that price difference is unacceptable. They have all of the budget to get all of those kinks out.
*conspiracy theory* apple is getting worse i9 chips because they are planning on making their own processors.

Who buys a i9 CPU and doesn't overclock it? The chip is $800+. Throwing a dinky NZXT 120mm radiator on it is :scust:. Yeah it may work fine with no OC, but do the shyt right. If you can't afford a decent AIO or a custom loop, then you shouldn't be rocking a x299 system in the first place.

I lurk from time to time and you do good work in here, ijs :yeshrug:

Majority of the pc community do not overclock. Let's be for real here. That's why turbo boost is so big now

And most folks are rocking a 1060 or 900 series equivalent on steam. People buying i9s are not regular users. The X299 platform is geared towards the prosumer anyway. I'd expect if you're somebody who drops $800+ on a CPU, you probably in the PC scene heavy.
