Topic: Oh my double dutch PinkGoat Posted: 19 Sep 2019 at 5:27pm |
ThePinkGoat takes his time, but I didn't forget you fine folks. So my images were to large and I'm lazy to resize so I made a quick YouTube recording.
This is my DS Lumos build. My last 10 year old DS computer (ODE LvL 3 #Hockey) had a 120 GB SSD and I never filled it up. So this 500 will last my until I die, or until I buy another from DS. My Fiancé is very jealous that ThePinkGoat has more flare than her. Well, that's what you get for thinking a "gaming laptop" would stand up to greatness. Hahahaha P.S Hydrolux doesn't make you great, it only means you're willing to spend more for looks and maintenance. And I feel you, I have the looks, but not the more $$$$$ or I would be with you 1% ers. Listen up peoples If you're on the edge and you think this chit is overpriced, then go buy an *********** from Best Buy or Wallmart. Don't listen to the fools on Facebook who talk about building your own. And saving X amount of dollars. They, are all, jealous, rich or the 1% who spend a ton of money on custom cases, 3D printed computer accessories for 1 time builds. Just search FB Groups and you will see what I mean. Fact. Tip #1 Don't post in the forms how long you're stuck in Stage 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 You WILL get your build in about 4-5 work weeks from the day you hit stage 1. UNLESS parts are back ordered, or CA is hit by a hurricane like the East Coast this year, what am I thinking? I'm in Oregon!!!! Tip #2 You need to spend more on your GUP and less on RGB, Overclocking, Fans, yes fans. DS will not sell you a build with base priced fans that can't fit the bill, get it? Tip #3 You can reach DS on the phone if you call them, unless it's the holiday, or CA is struck by another Hurricane…. sorry last time. Call them and be nice, not everyone you speak with has a DS computer. But they seem to know what's going on. Tip #4 If you made it this far I will give you the link to my video.

The ONLY issue with a Lumos is you have to remove the glass to turn the LED lights on (sometimes) if you're lucky you hold the remove under the case and point up at the middle where the sensor is behind metal and it might turn on. It's nothing worth me opening a ticket or throwing a fit. You don't buy a DS for RGB you buy it for life!

It looks great, good choices!
Quick question, does DS include a displayport cable? Edited by NaturomDemonto - 24 Sep 2019 at 10:06pm |

Quick answer... most likely not. My rig did not come with any video cabling. In my experience (which goes WAYYYY back - you don't want to know ), GPU's don't come with cables, but monitors sometimes do. If you didn't order a monitor from DS, don't expect a video cable.

Appreciate the reply and info. I just ordered one on Amazon to be safe. I didn't want to risk having my build arrive and not have one.
