#armoury crate

[aro-pancake]

Yay.

Dad (Windows) had an argument with mom (ASUS) at some point last night, and now their baby (Armoury Crate) is crying like crazy (not working). I'm considering running away to Aunties house (SteamOS), but I'm scared of doing it alone and stuff going wrong for me afterwards.

The other day I received a notification in my PC about some program called Armoury Crate. I hadn't installed it.

I checked today to see what it is, and it's some bloatware shit that ASUS installed on its own. In theory, it helps control RGB and some other things (that are mainly useful I think for videogames, since it also installed some videogame thing called ROG, I'm not into videogames).

Anyways, I read a review saying that it's best to not even install it because if you uninstall it, it leaves traces all over the PC (it installs many other things along itself). Apparently, it stays in the BIOS as well so it can reinstall on its own at a later moment.

This pissed me off. But then also, the article itself was interestingly written. It starts like a normal review, it mentions something that makes you suspicious of the program and then it does the Advantages/Disadvantages thing, including giving you the option to download and install it to see for yourself. And it's only in the "Bad things about it" part of the article that it really lets go and tells you it's bloatware, it's not good, it's better to not install it, etc.

So why did it offer the possibility of installing it in the first place? Why was it tamish first and then went hard about it? I suspect that the author may be afraid of being too straight-forward but why?

Anyways, keep an eye out for this Armoury Crate thing if you own an ASUS. It seems to be more important for laptops because it does things the computer itself can't do, but on a PC, it doesn't need it at all.

兩個滑鼠按鍵，控制巨集的按下與放開。

原神 PC 端 ASUS 電競滑鼠設定：自動走路（簡單版）

前置設定以及巨集指派請見上一篇文章原神 PC 端 ASUS 電競滑鼠設定：一鍵拾取，這篇只說怎麼設定自動走路的巨集。原理很簡單：用巨集幫忙按 W 就對了。 上一次文章使用【錄製】的方法，這次只有一個 W 鍵，所以我們換個方式，使用【插入】就好。 Continue reading 原神 PC 端 ASUS 電競滑鼠設定：自動走路（簡單版）

AM5主機板 ASUS TUF B650-PLUS WIFI

之前看了利民 PA120散熱器， 還有酷碼 MB511 機殼， 此處都是單純從組裝上面來看， 並不會對其做相關的測試， 今天要來看的是 AM5主機板 ASUS TUF B650-PLUS WIFI ASUS TUF B650-PLUS WIFI 這款主機板其實已經上市有一年， CPU 插槽採用 AMD Socket AM5 也就是支援 AMD Ryzen 7000 Series CPU， 即便上市已有一年售價仍需要五、六千元， 從外箱上除了能看到支援 AMD AM5 之外， 這塊板子內建 WIFI6 的無線網路以及 Bluetooth v5.2， 能讓使用者不須購買額外的USB無線網卡或者USB藍芽， 間接的減少一點購機成本， 當然對於沒這需求的使用者卻是額外的負擔 通常 CPU 插槽會帶有保護殼， M2 SSD 也算普及， 所以板子上預留給 PCIe…
