Zappy zappy goes the battery. I kind of wish batteries were more resilient to these kinds of voltage instead of the battery literally going to shit. 11V@5A is quite damn high when you think about the fact that normally USB is 1V@5A.
>Zen performs amazingly well in almost anything even with crappy support and shit to be fixed
>Zen is also able to do it on half the TDP and costs less than half the price of its competitor
>Zen isn't beating the competition in games, it's behind by an up to 15% margin on a low resolution that nobody should be using with it anyway because it simply doesn't make sense
>The conclusion is that Zen is therefore "shit" and nobody should buy it
I swear... Sometimes I wonder why I still have hope in people.
Yeah. Fast charging is an unnecessary strain. I use a 0.85amp old iphone charger that a, uh, let's call it short duration friend left after an evening to a bar at my home instead of my oneplus and sony 2a chargers unless I really need power quickly. Slow charging is a lot better for battery longevity.
I charge my portable battery bank on the 2amps though. Even then it takes 2x forever.
Alright.
At a complete loss.
I got a Schiit MODI 2 DAC to replace my MODI DAC, then last night ordered a Wyrd USB "Decrapifier," and I still have electrical noise somehow getting through! This is driving me bonkers.
Though, I will say, the problem that was ONLY in the right speaker, is gone. However, in my testing, loading the GPU, AT ALL, or basically opening up programs, gets noise. THIS SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING!!1! Adobe Lightroom, Steam, etc. Bi-amped studio monitors are sensitive "AF" yo. I have to turn the volume knob to 100% on the Schiit Asgard 2 Headphone AMP to hear the noise, pretty much, maybe 80%, but basically, it has to be in the "no-go" territory for me to hear noise in my headphones...
On the other hand, noise is audible on the speakers at 50%, even below on the headphone AMP.
Yeah, that's normal.
If you use a USB DAC, though, you shouldn't hear it. All of the digital to analog conversion is being done away from the computer, so you should be able to expect cleaner audio.
I will say, though, the noise that was coming from JUST the right speaker, seems to have disappeared. It was pretty much the same exact noise, though, sooo...
