Top 3 Online File Converters Of 2019

Let’s face it, not all phones can support all file formats and same is the case with PCs. Now, this leaves us with no other solution than to convert the files first in the formats that work on our computers and phones and then transfer those files. You see, this file format thing is quite frustrating too because most of the times, when people are in real hurry the error of “this file is not supported by your device” pops up.

What to look for when buying a projector for gaming?

When gaming rigs or setups are considered not many gamers think about including a projector in the ranks. This may be due to budget, space, connectivity or maybe even resolution and relay speed but what if we said these thing can not only be equal to the monitor screens, but even better.

Here at buydlp.com they have listed and reviewed the best gaming projector on a budget which might fit in nicely to your next rig or even evolve the current one you have to that next level of gamer experience.

Technology of the project has evolved rapidly over recent years thus providing more quality machines for better prices. The hurdles listed above can now all be mitigated by getting the right gaming projector to suit your needs but don’t let your mind run away with the possibilities or your budget could fly out of the window.

Things to consider before purchasing a gaming projector

Here are some areas that you may want to consider looking into deeply before purchasing a projector for your gaming setup:

Cost:

The price of some gaming projectors can really push the budget but there are some that are within the ranges of a good UHD monitor and provide the same quality so when it comes to cost just make sure you stay within you budgets. One thing to also not is that these projectors are a lot less than the large 4K TV’s that are on the market so you will be saving money there.

Space:

Another question you have to ask yourself is do you have the space for a projector screen or a blank wall in your gaming room that you can use for your screen. Without this space you will have a hard time gaming as you will not be able to clearly see the screen. This is a major factor when choosing to go with a projector so make sure you know the screen sizes the projector can provide and that you have the area for that.

Connectivity:

In the new gaming projectors this shouldn’t be an issue as they have many and all the ports required for quality connection with some including wireless and bluetooth straight to the device. As long as you have long enough wires or that wireless connection then there should be no issue on this front.

Quality and Refresh Rate:

These are 2 of the biggest aspects to consider when it comes to gaming and you won’t be disappointed to hear that projectors hold their own when it comes to this arena. The quality of the modern day projector can rival any HD TV even on the large scale and some also boast 3D capabilities which makes the game an even more real life experience. Refresh rate is a big category when it comes to gaming as any lag in this area could be a kill in the game or a missed opportunity on FIFA which for those that know may be the only scoring chance they have. Projectors can range from 60HZ and 240HZ which is ideal for what is needed in the gaming world so there is no hold up in this area.

Conclusion:

If you are looking to upgrade your gaming setup or want to have a larger screen then projectors shouldn’t be counted out as they can definitely fit in your budget if you choose the right one and will give you a thrill much better than a monitor or TV would.

Apple iPad(6th Gen) Tablet (9.7 inch, 32GB, Wi-Fi) 2018 Review : Awful?

So i recently bought the new 2018 iPad seeing raving reviews. Its the budget version. And it's my first ever apple product and thought give a quick review about it. Apple ipad is the best tablet according to 90% of the youtube reviewers but there's catch they didn't tell me. Luckily it doesn't affect me because I didn't buy for it. I have another purpose for it. Hopefully, this may help you decide whether its worth buying or not?
Let's start with the cons first

It's awful for video watching

And its the biggest drawback. Yes, it's awful and it's not the screen or picture quality. It's the 4:3 aspect ratio that was common in old devices decades ago. If you are a media consumer, you would most probably be disappointed.

Every new tv, smartphone, laptop or monitor, and other tablet use either 16:9 or 16:10, Amazon prime videos, YouTube and most movies are recorded and presented that way. Almost 95% of video content today are in that ratio.
If you are watching Youtube or prime videos on iPad, you'll end up with letterbox which is a black bar on top and bottom of the screen. it's not purely black, its kinda greyish black which is annoying watching videos.

You can zoom in to and fill the screen but when you do that other parts of the image gets cropped out. So your 9.7" screen is effectively gets reduced to a 7.7" screen. The letterbox takes that lost space.
Watching videos in 4:3 ration is also not good.

But there's a partial workaround and I think its not legal. There's an app called moviebox from tweak apps, which streams movies in fullscreen compatibility. You have to directly download it outside app store and install it. But this app battery consumption is very high and only works if you are in US/UK and probably unsafe. I tried VPN but no luck.

Weight

It weighs 478 gm and its really heavy to hold with one hand. Holding it for a long time will make your hands tired.

Accessories

You have to buy a new case and screen protector for it. it's really a dust and fingerprint magnet. And the cost adds up.

What're the Pros then?

Browsing the web on it is really good and top notch. The screen resolution is top notch. The UI is beautifully designed and the multitasking is also good. There are many tricks and tips which I have yet to learn.

That's it?

No. The only reason to get this ipad, in my opinion, is if you are a student or a professional with a lot of note taking or presentation. The real beast is the apple pencil aka stylus. The apple pencil, its the most important piece of the component.
You can take notes, draw, color, organize and do a lot of creative awesome stuffs with it. And its worth mentioning that there's no slot to fit the pencil on the budget iPad. You'll be very happy if you are a student. And as usual, the pencil is a separate accessory you've to buy. It doesn't come with ipad. And the overall costs further shoot up.

Conclusion

If you are an avid movies lover or media consumer you might be disappointed and on the other half if you are a student, professional creative artists or something you'll be very happy with the Ipad.

How to Buy Proper Gaming Headsets?

Every avid gamer knows: gaming headsets are some of the most important accessories in the gaming world. The kind of headset you use may make or break your experience, that’s why it is important to put in some care in the buying process.

How do you ensure you buy the very best there is in the headset market? There answer lies in the elements you have to look for in a pair of gaming headsets. Here are the key considerations to make when buying your pair to ensure you get the best.

Sound quality

You are likely to enjoy a game that delivers an immersive experience. Sound quality plays a big role in determining how immersive your experience is, that’s why superior sound quality should be a vital consideration when choosing a gaming headset.

How effectively you play a game sometimes depends on your ability to pick up the functionally interactive sounds, particularly with competitive games. Good sound quality is the one element that ensures you don’t miss a detail so you can make all the right moves each time.

Depending on the type of game you are playing, you will have to choose between surround or stereo game sound, so be sure to do your homework to know which is best for your specific game.

Comfort

If you are going to sit for many hours on a single game or more, notice that you will be wearing your headphones throughout. Ergonomics are everything when it comes to doing the same thing for extended periods of time, so be sure to go for a headset that offers the best in comfort.

Besides, why would you sit on a typical comfortable gaming chair if your headphone does little to complement that feeling.

With in-ear and over the head configurations being the available options as far as headphone comfort is concerned, it’s a no brainer that the latter will provide better comfort. Even then, not all over the head options are perfect. You have got to pay attention to the padding to be sure that it’s the right cushion and material for you.

Do they fit right? Once you are convinced that the padding is great, it is important to consider the fit just to be sure you’re getting the perfect accessory for optimal wearing comfort. Depending on what works best for you, the options available for you may include a comfortable lightweight option (L), comfortable fit that rests around the ear (also XL), or the ultimate: extreme comfort around the ear (also XXL).

Open-back vs Closed-back

As soon as you hit the highway in search of the best noise cancelling headphones, you soon come across the terms “open” and “closed” headphones more often than not. If you’re lucky, you’ll meet the more descriptive “Open-back” and “Closed-back” descriptions so it’s important to understand them.

These are no jargon. Normally the rear side of headphones – the side that faces away from the ear – can either be opened or closed, hence the terms “open-back” and “closed-back”.

An open-back gaming headset have small openings that allow you to hear sounds on the surroundings outside of the gaming sound itself, while also keeping your ears cool. The mechanism is in that the gaming sound does not come out so much as to disturb those around you.

A closed-back option on the other hand seals out the sounds from your surroundings, keeping them from bothering you at all while you’re playing. The mechanism equally seals off the gaming sounds from disturbing your surroundings. You may prefer this option is you want to hear the slightest details even in noisy surroundings.

Microphone

Playing games that require communication with other players will require some form of microphone. When buying your headphone, you want to ensure that it has a built-in microphone to make your in-game collaboration possible.

Ideally you should look for microphones that provide some form of advanced noise cancellation – that’s when you can be sure that your fellow players will hear you during the game with crystal clarity.

Conclusion

Whether you are using the headset on a gaming console or your gaming laptop, a proper headset will transform your gaming experience. Pay attention to these details to help you buy the best pair for your next game

Intel i3-8350K vs Ryzen 5 1600 vs I5 8600k : Battle for Budget Supremacy?

Hi, folks. My pc upgrade point is nearing. I'm currently using Intel i3- 3210 CPU. It's nearing its end and will possibly replaced by a new CPU in Q1 2018. So I was curiously watching the recent developments and trends in the CPU industry.
Currently, a heated war is going on between Intel and AMD. My original plan is to get Ryzen 5 1600 CPU, but the new Coffee lake processor launch is near and thought I should wait a little longer before i3 8350k arrives or may be core i5 8600k.
The rumor circulating is that it trades blows with Ryzen 7 1700. Let's wait and see I'm upgrading in Q1 2018, So I will have enough time before the update.

The overall decision will be based on gaming and multitasking performance, future upgrade path. How much CPU+ MOBO combination costs and price-performance. Decisions haha

First, here's the spec war between I3 8350k vs. Ryzen 5 1600 vs core i5 8600K

CPU	RyZen 5 1600	Intel i3- 8350K	Intel i5 -8600k
Socket type	AM4	LGA 1151	LGA 1151
CPU Cores	6 core/12-thread	4 core/ 4 thread	6 core/6 thread
Clock Speed	4 GHZ	3.4 GHZ/ Turbo 3.6GHZ	3.5 GHZ
Power	65 W	65 W	95 W
Unlocked	Yes	Yes	Yes
Cache	8 MB	16 MB	9 MB
Family	Zen	Coffee Lake	Intel i3- 8350K
Manufacturing Process	14nm	14nm	14nm

The Specs are almost identical but architecture is totally different. Lets wait and see who wins.

As you can see the quad core i3-8350K has a stock clock of 4.0 GHz, 8MB of cache and a TDP of 95W. What interesting is Intel's mid-range has shifted to lower side. i3 now comes with quad core. In fact its the first one to feature four core. My previous generation i3 has only 2 cores and 4 threads.

Ryzen 5 1600 on the other hand features overclock. The b350 motherboard is comparatively cheaper when compared to overclocking supported intel motherboard. And I also saw some hits silicon lottery and gets overclocking it to 4GHZ on air. Speaking of cooler Ryzen 5 1600 comes with wraith spire cooler

Well, that's it for now and let's wait and see the reviews and finally judge which one is the best bang for buck overall.

finally the covefefe lake is out. But curiously the mid range gaming champion is Intel i5 8400 because of lower price and performs similar to ryzen 5 1600 in games.
But the overall package may not be worth till Q1 2018 because the budget mobos are releasing at that time frame.
I think ryzen 5 1600 is still the best bang for now because of cheaper mobo and AM4 platform support till 2020. And also i can drop another good cpu without changing motherboard which could last another 4 years till 2024 before upgrading to a new complete setup or save the extra for a new GPU.

Well, the following is the review of 30 Day Fit Challenge Workout app. This is a gaming blog and Why are you doing this? Well. I'm currently taking break playing games and looking at myself, here are some reflections of me. Enough for me to workout
1. Can't concentrate on anything except videogames
2. I'm 25, 5"7 and weighs 75kg (165.347 pounds)
3. I sit too much time in a chair.
4. I can't walk that much. If I walk too long, i'm out of breath
5. Running 50 meter is my limit. Yup. More than that, I'm out of breath.
6. Last time I failed to qualify the firefighter exam due to extreme low fitness level and fell during running test. That was embarrassing!
7. I can't even do more than two chin-ups.
8. For some reason, I'm able to do 8-10 push ups.

FAQ

1. Do I have prior experience with workout?
NOP! I'm a workout newbie
2.What's my goal?
Shed a few kilos and get back into good fitness at the same time review this app.
3. Six pack abs?

Best Gaming Desks in 2019 - Buyer's Guide

So, I'm looking for a new gaming desk (still sitting at my stupid chair). Honestly, I want to build my own desk. But I don't have skill, time or resources to build gaming desk. If you are in the same boat as I'm, let's look for a cool gaming desk. The following are the desks that my sights are on. I'm looking for a nice looking, decently built, best bang in different price range and category. Hopefully, you'll like these gaming desks.

Gaming Desk Buyer’s Guide

Apparently, choosing the best gaming desk requires knowing about certain things. Because when you go through reviews on the internet, you'll see many technical terms used. Those terms are an L-Shaped or straight desk and material used for the construction of the desk. You've to prioritize those things before making your decision. Here's what it is and how it'll benefit you to enhance the gaming experience.

L-Shaped Desks vs. Straight Desks

An L-shaped desk is widely used and is popular among gamers as it can be used for multipurpose and comes with a relatively low price. The increased surface area allows you to fit multiple monitor setup.It'is beneficial for ultimate hardcore players who do different works simultaneously. And Even if you don't need that much area, you can detach it and use that part as something else.

Straight desks are also standard among gamers as its easy to move around without any difficulty. As there is no dead space within the design, the desk allows for more usability. Some come with cable management system. It's helpful if there's wires are hanging around.For the best pc gaming chairs check here.

Gaming Desk Construction

At the moment I use a cheap wood desk for my pc. The problem with cheap wood desk is the termite attack. After 4 or 5 years holes will start to appear on the desk. It's why you've to get a high-quality wood if possible.Also, I live in a high humidity area. The surface of the wood desk can easily scratch off or fall off in that particular season. Sometimes the top layer (mica on my desk) also fall off. And one another problem that I noticed is the accumulation of dust behind the monitor (half section of the desk) for some reason. Dust is not easily to clean off from the wood desk for me at least. Compared to the wood desk, the metal desk doesn't have any problem. The dust is easy to clean. If your PC case doesn't have any legs and comes contact with the desk directly, then avoid metal desk.

Also, i see some says that wood desk is heavier than other, but it is not true. If both having same weight how come one weighs higher than other?. But, Glass desks, on the other hand, are more prone to cracks compared to other types.

Sitting Desks vs. Standing Desks

Sitting desk is better compared to a standing desk only if you are using the proper chair. The chair has an important role. Most adjustable gaming chairs are office chairs for some reason. most of the chair will last only max six months. After that, the comfort level will decrease (just my observation)

Best Entry Level Gaming Desk

Walker Edison Soreno 3-Piece Corner Desk

Most people will be happy with this desk. It's an L-Shaped table that offers lots of space at the same time having a minimal design. Suitable for people with small rooms or apartment. The weight limit is 100lbs on each piece, and there are no sharp edges on it. Speaking of build, the dimensions of this table is 51 W x 20 D x 29 H inches (Overall Depth: 51 inches).The pieces are made of thick tempered safety glass with metal frame. The desk installation is relatively easy. What I liked about this desk is that it can be used as two- standalone desk after disassembling. What we concern about are the support bar and keyboard tray. It does have a few support bars. As long as you don't overload the table, it's safe.The keyboard tray won't fit large keyboards. So you have to place it on the table top. Overall, it's worth what you're paying. Nothing more or nothing less. You'll get what you pay for.

Overall Rating - 8.7/10

Best Mid-Range Gaming Desk

Bush Business Furniture- Series A 72W Desk

A72W is a good solid desk for who loves the neat/spacious look. What I really liked about this desk is the cable management system. You can conceal the wires. Installation of the table is difficult.
The top surface is Diamond Coated so that it's scratch and stain resistant. Good for people who put other things like coffee/tea beside heavy gaming machines. It's American made, and open C-Leg design looks cool.The dimensions of A72 is 71.54"W x 26.81"D x 29.78"H. It weights 102lb total. It got plenty of workspace and room. It can accommodate 3 to 4 24" monitor easily. It comes with a ten-year warranty. If you got multiple monitors, mid tower case and gaming accessories this one may be enough for you. There's another version A60W which I included on the honorable mention list

Overall rating - 7.8/10

Best High-End Premium Gaming Desk

DXRacer DGD/1000/NE

I like this from the design perspective.The best feature, in my opinion, is the 10-degree slope which provides the angle to rest your forearm.This is cool to me. I'm prone to carpal tunnel syndrome Which is a pain the wrists and palm due to bad position of the forearm. It can arise due to many factors like a bad mouse, table, keyboard ergonomics. The thing is, you can't use your arm anymore once you get affected by it. It'll take approx 4-6 months to get healed. The dimension of DXRacer is 31.5 x 31.5 x 47 inches and weighs 70 pounds. What we don't like is the price. It doesn't have space to accommodate triple monitor setup and no storage space. The cable management system is excellent, but the price doesn't justify it. You should think thrice when buying it.

Overall Rating - 7.4/10

Best 4k UHD 144hz Gysnc HDR Gaming Monitors 2017

It seems PC Gamers wish come true at CES 2017. Guess what! The long waiting is over.Finally, not one but two 4k gaming monitor with 144hz refresh rate and virtually zero input lag and top of that Gsync and HDR!Overkill!

First, Here's side by side comparison of these 4K 144HZ. Let me know what else you wanted to see in the table. More monitors will be added upon announcement. Sorry about the font.

4k UHD 144hz Gysnc HDR Monitors

Model	Screen Size	Resolution	Peak Brightness (nits)	Adaptive Vsync
ASUS ROG Swift PG 27UQ	27"	3840x2160P	1000	Gsync
Acer Predator XB-272 HDR	27"	3840x2160P	1000	GSync
Reserved	NA	NA	NA	NA
Reserved	NA	NA	NA	NA
Reserved	NA	NA	NA	NA
Reserved	NA	NA	NA	NA

If you recall, 4K UHD monitors are faking 144HZ for a long time now. Not anymore. The first announced ROG Swift PG 27UQ can do the incredible 144HZ. The brother Acer Predator XB272-HDR uses the same panel. Both are supplied by AU Optronics and spec wise both are identical. Can't go wrong with both. What's more impressive is the Quantum dots and HDR. They promise deeper black and color accuracy even though HDR has nothing to with 'deeper black.'
The black level depends on the display technology used. But this monitor can get deep black due to the full array local dimming (FALD). The 384 backlight zones in this monitor is enough to surpass some of the flagship TVs out there.

This monitor is not just a headline. The features are really impressive. Although it's 4K UHD (Ultra HD 3840×2160 resolution) rather than true 4K, it flashes more than 8 million pixels in front of you. The pixel density is 163PPI across 27" IPS panel if you are wondering. It's more than capable of displaying detailed images.

One of the most impressive features of this monitor is the 144HZ refresh. It's capable for the smooth gameplay you could ever get. This monitor promises 6.9ms to update its contents which we are aware what a 144HZ refresh rate can do. A regular 60hz monitor takes ~16.6ms to update its content. So the input lag is virtually low and the animations are super fast. Because the refresh rate is 144HZ, it cuts the delay between frames compared to 60HZ monitor offering a spectacular experience and edge against opponents (if you have any).
The high resolution will help every artists and content creators out there, and serious gamers will benefit from this fast 144HZ refresh rate.
It'll surely satisfy those who care about everything about the monitor and squeezing the last pixel of it.

Those who are getting this monitor should make sure getting the best graphics cards out there. Single GPU's won't be enough to push this into 144HZ. We are sure your single GPU's will fail to push it to 144fps. In the demo at CES 2017, they are rumored to be showing off the 144HZ via Quadro P6000 SLI.
This monitor requires Some beasts out there. However, thanks to nVidia Gsysnc technology you don't have to worry about the frames dipping. Gsync will smooths out the frames and screen tears.

If you don't know, HDR increases latency. But Gysnc HDR is tuned for HDR. Speaking of HDR, This is not an average performer. It can go up to 1000nit peak brightness which is something UHDA specifies for the displays to get certified for UHD premium. It's worth comparing it to typical monitor which only goes 300-350 nits today.

PG27UQ supports HDR10 Supports. Although the standard does not supports dynamic metadata (pros working towards it), It still kicks displays that do not support HDR. 1000 nits is really troublesome if there's no backlighting, but the 384 backlight zones are there for controlling the zones and no worries about backlight bleed.The pitch-perfect black is impossible on this monitor as marketing professionals say because it still uses LCD tech. But it does have more peak brightness than OLED displays.

There's this quantum dots tech on top of all this, although it doesn't have anything to do with the actual theory lads saying. Quantum dots is actually an improvement over the existing LCD tech. But it does offer better colors and contrast compared to the typical monitors and supports the DCI-P3 color space. And the IPS panel gives better wide angles, colour reproduction, and accuracy.

There's some additional fantasy light works on PG27UQ and it sports dual DisplayPort 1.4 inputs and one HDMI to connect multiple devices.

Overall: - New Kings of the monitors crowned.
