Good selection... Thunderbolt 4 & 2.5Gbe

Thanks. I think this one of the best spec so far.

I think spec are high for portable unit me still looking one but not in hurry and you shared the idea just curios how's the heat feels?

Using this Anker 777 Thunderbolt Docking Station (Apex, 12-in-1, Thunderbolt 4) at home and it's not portable but enough for notebook docking & Dex with 4k & 1Gbe only thou

Next in the que should be 8k & 2.5Gbe tools too or higher

I only use for connecting normal USB device, didn't use it for display or ethernet, so I had no idea how it perform.

Finally purchase a KVM switch to allow using same keyboard and mouse for my PC and also MacBook Pro.

careful the board doesn't crack. use support.

It do came with GPU holder but I didn't use as it is not so compatible with my casing.

So now I am just using a little toy holding it. 😅



Edit: Finally, I fit in the orignal holder + Asus TUF GPU Sag holder I get from a shop. 😊

Thinking of one too... any particular with HP ? if this right forum

Currently had my eyes on this Brother MFC-L3750CDW All in One Wireless Colour LED Laser Printer | Auto 2-sided print | USB Direct | Scan,Copy,Fax or this rother DCP-L3551CDW 3in1 Wireless Colour LED Laser Printer | Auto 2-sided print | 50 sheets ADF | Print Scan Copy A4

HP laser printers are solid, too bad I cannot say the same for their business practice
https://www.guru3d.com/news-story/hp-disabl...cartridges.html

I read that Brothers are more acceptable to 3rd party refills and less of the firmware lock BS by HP. YMMV as I see few users here.

My previous monochrome laser printer is Brother, to me it is not solid, not good and the software is very dated, difficult to connect via WiFi and not that smart. Also it start problematic on printout quality after few years only. So I no longer interested in Brother.

During looking for Color Laser Printer, I am in between this model or Canon imageCLASS MF643Cdw, but at the end I choose HP as that Canon model is freaking bulky and heavy. 2nd issue is Canon toner is damn expensive! I don't use 3rd party toner. 😅

So far so good and I am satisfied with HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M283fdw.

ITEM BOUGHT : Gigabyte M28U 4k 144hz IPS monitor
DATE : 18/07/2023
PRICE : RM 2140
LOCATION OF PURCHASE : Viewnet Lowyat plaza
PICTURE :




REMARKS :

The friendly fella at the monitor section was so nice. he gave me such a good deal!. i was at the ground floor, and they were asking rm 2428 with fee for card purchase. viewenet selling it for almost rm 300!! cheaper wow!.

This is my first 4k 144hz monitor and I did research quite a bit beforehand and this gigabyte model seems to be the best value as after spending a bunch on a 4080..i was on a tight budget for new monitor. inititally was looking at qhd but with my cpu i was worried about bottleneck, so why not go 4k cause its a 4080 afterall! I hope that should minimise cpu bottleneck and in the future maybe next year i will move to a 7800x3d system.
