Is MSI Afterburner still a must?
  • It is not the drivers that dictate the fan but the GPU bios. So how the card behaves depends on how the manufacturer tuned it which is to say, these days it'll work fine. Many "high end" cards usually have a bios switch for silent or turbo mode so whatever.

    Back when I had a 1080ti, I used afterburner to set my own fan curve. And now with my rx6900xt I use AMD's adrenaline because it actually works great for many things including setting a custom fan curve . I've heard Nvidia's first party software was a bit of a mess for oc stuff so that's why Afterburner became so popular but I never installed anything past Nvidia's drivers so maybe it's good now, who knows.

  • Nozzle size for masks and helmets
  • It depends more on how much time you want to spend on post processing and how detailed the part is. Teller layers means more time spent filling and smoothing.

    You can print at .2 layer height with a .6 noz and benefit from a thicker line width, giving you stronger parts but the overall time to print will still be similar compared to a .4 noz.

  • Android Auto won't connect with screen off
  • Don't rule out the wire behind the dash. I was experiencing similar behavior until my phone just didn't connect but still was getting power from the port. Turns out the wire connecting the USB port and the head unit was faulty. If I wiggled the wire on the end connected to the head unit then it worked like normal.

  • Ultrawide or multi-monitor setup?
  • Also do software. Went from a triple monitor (1080 portrait, 1440 landscape, 1080 portrait) to super ultra wide. The biggest reason was my work laptop only supports two 1440 or one 4k monitors so I use the ultra wide in picture by picture mode.

    I miss the vertical space for reading documents but that's kind of it. There is enough horizontal space to have my work open with slack/email/whatever on the side since it's basically two monitors but without the bezel.

    I've been enjoying the ultra wide way more when gaming vs the single 1440, by a lot. Don't think I could go back now however I play a lot of fps games that will use the whole monitor.

    The only annoying thing is I need to switch to input mode whenever I switch computers but this might not apply to you if all devices can support the native resolution.

  • Ford Mustang Mach-E Recalled Because Battery Can’t Handle Owners Flooring It
  • Higher battery voltage can charge faster and drive motors more efficiently (don't quote me on that part). That's why the Ioniq can do the really fast DC fast charging. For home charging it doesn't really matter, but on long distance trips that's less time spent charging.

    I may be placing too much importance in that aspect since I have little experience with ev's.
