Hey everyone!
Today while I was checking through my emails I noticed an email someone had sent me, after reading my blog they stumbled upon my “AMD A10 Problems” post and had a little rant at me.
So, I decided to talk a little about my stance on AMD and explain a little more…
I have been using AMD Processors in the last three desktop PC’s and I have had no major problems with any of them, they always work and do exactly what I expect of them however when it comes to recording HD Videos (which requires a lot of encoding) the A10 5800K AMD APU tends to struggle… a lot!
Hello again everyone!
As some people may know I am a huge Computer geek/nerd, I currently own 2 custom desktop PC’s as well as my HP Envy laptop plus two smart phones and I used to have an iPad as well.
My current PC is my highest spec’d custom PC to date however with my plans to push production over on both of my YouTube channels my current PC doesn’t really support HD video recording due to the AMD A10 APU.
Hey everyone!
Over the last few weeks or so I’ve been having people ask why recording has stopped on YouTube videos and where a certain video review is… The answer for the latter is, it’s coming.
The reason as to why recording has stopped (mainly for the gameplay channel) is due to my processor, the AMD A10 APU and due to the fact that when I attempt to try and record any kinda of HD video I experience huge amounts of lag.
Hey everyone!
Over the last few months while recording unboxing videos over on my YouTube vlogging channel I thought about trying my hands at reviewing products, games etc however rather than create videos doing them I thought about making a whole new website.
I’ll be honest I could easily do them on my current website however I thought it would be nice to distance the review project from my personal website as this site is not just about gaming or tech, there is a lot coming onto this site including mental health posts etc.
The main reason for the idea though is due to the fact that a lot of online stores ask for your opinion and will only publish positive reviews and leave out anything negative, this way I am in full control of what I publish.
Hello everyone!
Yesterday whilst trying to record some videos I found I was having issues with my webcam and the low light in the room, this isn’t really a new issue as I have had the problem before however with the nights now drawing in earlier it is starting to become an issue again.
Having tried everything I could think of to try and resolve the problem (other than only recording in the mornings) I took to the internet to try and find some kind of solution, after looking at various desk lamps and coming to the conclusion they won’t really work too well I splashed a fairly large sum of money.
What I decided to do was purchase some studio light boxes that produce enough lighting to increase the light levels enough, however included with the light boxes is a full green screen setup with three different colors of material.
Hey everyone!
Over the last few days I’ve been hearing a lot about AdBlock which is a plugin for internet browsers, the idea behind them is to “hide” adverts from websites or the internet completely and whilst the idea behind it may be good news for some… It’s usually catastrophic news for others.
I am a full time content creator which is how I earn my money, I write blog posts, create reviews and also produce videos for YouTube but over the last few years whilst AdBlock is becoming more and more popular the ad revenue is dropping.
If you don’t use AdBlock you’ll notice my website runs Adverts, this isn’t because I want them on my site it’s because I have to have them to keep my website online and to generate some form of income.
Many people may ask themselves “what’s the harm?” and to understand what harm it can cause you need to understand how ad revenue works, so I’ll explain how it works as well as explaining the effects that AdBlock has to content creators.
