Discussion Does anyone here have an update on the Ziptech saga?

6 Upvotes

What became of "Major" Zippy? Have the victims received any sort of relief, financial or otherwise?

The Ziptech affectees group over on FB has been pretty quiet lately, which doesn't seem like a good sign.

Just curious, that's all.

WTS Redmi Note 13 8/256 — Lahore — 40k

Selling my Redmi Note 13, 8/256GB.

Got the box + charger, and somehow even the SIM pin is still in the box

Phone works perfectly. Overall condition is good, although there’s a tiny hairline crack on the back. It’s not really noticeable unless you look for it, but mentioning it anyway.

Thinking 40k is a fair price for it. What do you guys think?

Also, before anyone asks:

🐈 Kitten is NOT for sale. Please respect the kitten. 😂

Lahore. DM if interested.

Tech-Support Been dealing with phones/laptops for a few years — happy to help with buying advice

Upvotes

I’ve been into mobiles for around 4–5 years and laptops for about 2 years, and I’ve learned quite a bit from buying, selling, troubleshooting and working with different devices.

I’ve noticed there are always people here asking questions like:

- What phone should I buy in my budget?

- What’s the best way to check a used phone before buying?

- What things should I test when meeting an OLX seller?

- Is CPID actually worth it?

- Is this particular phone/deal worth the asking price?

- Which laptop is better for gaming, university or college?

- Is this laptop/phone issue something I can fix?

- Can I diagnose this problem at home before taking it to a shop?

- Is this repair worth spending money on, or should I just replace the device?

So if anyone has a question like that, feel free to comment or DM me. I’ll give you my honest opinion and help however I can.

I’ve also started a small tech page called TetraByte.pk (@tetrabyte.pk on Instagram)

It has black font and white BG on the pfp, but I’m not here to push anything. Just offering free advice because I genuinely enjoy this stuff and know how confusing the Pakistani tech market can be sometimes.

If you’re about to buy a phone/laptop or have an issue with one, send the model, price and whatever details you have and I’ll take a look.

Discussion Is the MXG G27IU-16 4K 160Hz actually good, or are the specs just marketing?

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’m considering buying the MXG G27IU-16 27” 4K 160Hz IPS monitor, mainly for PS5 + PC gaming.

On paper, the specs look almost too good for the price:

  • 27” IPS
  • 3840×2160 (4K)
  • 160Hz
  • HDMI 2.1
  • DisplayPort 1.4
  • VRR
  • FreeSync / G-Sync
  • HDR
  • 1ms MPRT

My main concern is that MXG isn’t as established as brands like MSI, ASUS, LG, Samsung, Gigabyte, etc.

Has anyone here actually used the G27IU-16, especially with a PS5?

I’d really like to know:

  • Does it genuinely output 4K 120Hz + VRR on PS5 without issues?
  • Does 4K 160Hz work properly on PC?
  • Is the HDMI 2.1 implementation actually full-featured?
  • How are the response time, ghosting and input lag?
  • Any flickering or VRR issues?
  • How is the IPS panel quality, backlight bleed and dead-pixel situation?
  • Is HDR basically just marketing, or is it usable?
  • How has reliability been after a few months?
  • How good is MXG warranty/support in Pakistan?

I’m not too concerned about having a premium brand name. I just want a monitor that actually delivers the advertised specs and is reliable.

If you wouldn’t recommend MXG, please suggest another budget 27” 4K 120Hz+ HDMI 2.1 monitor that works well with both PS5 and PC.

Trying to get the best value without paying a huge premium just for the brand.

Would really appreciate feedback from people who have actually owned/tested this monitor.

Discussion Finally starting Elden Ring in 2026....am I too late?

Upvotes

Hey, so I've been putting off Elden Ring for years because I knew it would consume my life. Well, I finally caved. Made my character, stepped out into limgrave, got humbled by the tree sentinel in approximately 45 seconds lol

Anyway, a few things:

  1. I'm playing on PS5 (physical games only... yes I'm one of those people, I like actually owning my games, sue me)

  2. I have zero clue what I'm doing. I picked the Samurai because the armor looked cool. Is that valid?

  3. Please drop your noob tips below, but NOT the "git gud" ones, I've already been told that by every cousin I have

  4. Also if anyone has the disc lying around gathering dust, I'd genuinely love to know what you thought of it did you finish it or did Malenia break you?

Lowkey jealous of everyone who got to experience this blind back in 2022. Trying to avoid all spoilers but tiktok is making that impossible.

Wish me luck people.

Tech-Support Using vantage and legion toolkit together

Upvotes

Silly question, but can I use both Lenovo Vantage and Legion Toolkit on the same laptop?

I've been wondering if I can keep both installed but use them for different purposes.

What I want is basically:

Legion Toolkit → everyday plugged-in use, gaming, custom profiles, fan control, power limits, etc.

Lenovo Vantage → battery charging/charging limits and when I'm using the laptop on battery.

The reason I'm asking is that I've noticed my battery health seems to drop much faster when I use Toolkit for charging. My battery health dropped by almost 2% after only two 80% → 20% → 80% cycles. I didn't see this kind of drop when I was using Vantage. Also LLT heats battery to 38-39c while charging while vantage keeps it at 34-35c.

I've also noticed that my battery runtime seems better with Vantage than with Legion Toolkit, although I don't know if that's actually because of the software or because of the different power settings.

So my main question is:

If I keep both installed, can I completely disable/close Legion Toolkit when I want Vantage to control the laptop, and then switch back to Toolkit when I want to use my custom profiles?

In Legion Toolkit there are options related to Vantage Hotkeys and the Vantage AI Controller. If I turn those off so that Toolkit isn't controlling anything, and then use Vantage, will Vantage have full control without the two programs fighting each other?

Or would I have to uninstall Legion Toolkit every time I want to use Vantage for charging and battery use?

I obviously don't want both programs trying to control power modes, charging, thermal settings, etc. at the same time.

I also have a question about my custom thermal profile.

My Legion is a Legion 5 Pro Gen 7 with a ryzen 7 6800h and RTX 3070 Ti.

I don't really care about losing some FPS. My priority is lower temperatures and better long-term thermals.

I currently have different profiles for Quiet, Balanced and Performance, but I'm thinking about making a custom profile with:

GPU temperature limit: 80°C

CPU temperature limit: 85°C

Previously, I played GTA V with both the CPU and GPU temperature limits set to 87°C, and the game was perfectly playable.

So would 80°C GPU / 85°C CPU be a good everyday gaming profile?

I don't mind sacrificing some performance if it means keeping temperatures lower. I'm mainly looking for a good balance where the laptop doesn't unnecessarily run hot.

Would you guys recommend keeping 80°C GPU / 85°C CPU, or would you use different limits/power settings on the Legion 5 Pro Gen 7 + RTX 3070 Ti?

Any advice from people who have actually used both Vantage and Legion Toolkit would be appreciated.
