Starting axis values at 0 is our policy, but these graphs slipped through the cracks. It is not our intention to mislead the audience, and we hope that you'll forgive us for this oversight.

@DailyCorvid 2 года назад

These poor quality pre-builds are just collections of unsold components cobbled together in a fancy RGB case. That's why they are so bad, the components were not chosen together for any other reason that, they had loads of the stuff lying around unsold. Decent prebuilds are as good as anything you will make yourself, but there is no interest in people reviewing those sadly so people never see them.

@slinkytrips 2 года назад

For those wondering the unpainted bits are part of the Faraday cage of the case. As a mass market device HP have to meet radio frequency regulations from the FCC and others. A fully metal case would do this but they wanted a glass window. As glass has no shielding properties they need to put a special coating on the glass which is then bonded to the metal frame, that metal frame has to make contact with the rest of the case hence the lack of paint. Case manufacturers who sell just an empty case with no electronics don't have to meet these regulations but your PC will be susceptible to interference without proper shielding.

@mirrorsandstuff 2 года назад

Normally, the devil is in the detail: given that there's a lot of prior art out there, I'll wager the independent claims are fairly specific. That in turn limits the value and power of the patent. E.g. can openers exist. You have made a tomato shaped can opener. Perhaps that doesn't exist. One may be able to patent the concept of tomato shaped can openers, but that patent wouldn't affect existing or future non-vegetable shaped can openers.

@mirrorsandstuff 2 года назад

@@BillyONeal in theory, as part of a patent being granted, there should be an action known as search where prior art of examined. Often this either results in the disclosure being withdrawn or the claims being restricted. It's also one of the reasons why there's a delay between publishing of a pending disclosure and granting - so outside parties can review and contest. Patents aren't academic papers. They can be really quite limited in terms of what they legally protect and really quite shit overall. But it sounds fancy sometimes and it does introduce a legal hammer that many might shy away from if HP's lawyers come knocking, regardless of the true legal value of any potentially granted patent.

They didn't obtain exclusive rights on this tech-they merely filed an application on it. There has yet to be any review of the app by an examiner (per Public PAIR), thus no one can really speculate as to whether or not this patent will be granted. In fact, I can almost assure you at least one revision, wherein the claims are restricted in their scope, will be completed prior to any patent being granted on the tech. First-action allowances are very, very rare. Especially in a crowded art like this. TLDR, there's really no need to worry about this. And if you are worried, or have done something similar in the past, you are welcome to submit that as a preissuance submission so that the examiner is forced to review it when completing a prior art review.

I bought the HP Omen 45L with the RTX 4090 graphics card in December of 2023. Upon opening the case to add in a 10GB Ethernet card and a Firewire card I found that with the mini-ATX motherboard there were no slots available. I shipped the computer back to HP. Lenovo Legion 7i does allow for adding a 16-lane PCIe card along with a 4-lane card. The Legion also has a 2.5GB Ethernet port which is considerably better than the 1GB Ethernet port provided on the HP 45L computer. Great job on the case design but a very poor job on the motherboard design by the HP product engineers.

@ItGuyTechTips 2 года назад

I honestly think if you do things right that you can accomplish the same sort of effect with Fractal Design Node 804, you just need to place the radiator on the top of right chamber and try to isolate them a bit better from each other. You can then push the air from the front of the case to feed the radiator and gpu with fresh air.

The computer I got from Build Redux seems to have a bit of an hybrid approach. All intake is from the front 3 120mm fans. However, two of the 120mm slots are used from the AIO rad, and the other one is a direct bypass to the GPU. Finally, all air output is from the rear and back. This seems to be a good compromise for all other cases with a front intake.

But that depends on the motherboard, so choosing whats in your pc (gpu, cpu, etc. is most important). One thing I have to mention is that you have to be somewhat knowledgeable about softwares or at least not be afraid to tweak it. The omen gaming hub for example, has an unnecessary overlay that you can disable. It requires some guides and knowledge of where and what to look for. But its not too difficult. As you have to run the omen gaming hub and either the amd or nvidia softwares it can also be somewhat tricky to understand what you need to disable, what is needed and what is just unnecessary.
