Adding/Including Memories
I lost my dad last year (2023) and have been finding ways to include keepsakes/memories in my workstation. I've dabbled here and there with doing small woodworking projects and attempted a wrist rest from a piece of oak I picked up with him from my great uncles wood shop. I milled it to fit a 60% keyboard as I hadn't decided what keyboard I would be using it on and thought that's where most of my wrist would be in contact even typing on a full keyboard. I gave it a torched/burn appearance as I really was lost in what to do. I found an old shell casing from going hunting with my dad in my hunting pack and decided to imbed it into the end of the wrist rest so it would just have a little difference and a small story behind it as well. I have other things around my workstation from family and friends, but it just feels a little more special having worked on it and adding something small that has a memory for me to it. (Purple was my grandmothers favorite color and I have kinda now...

i see a lot of people have this question (including myself) what's the difference between this and the GN32Q: 1. they are the same panel 2. structural esthetic is different (leg, color, stand) 3. firmware (how you control/adjust/calibrate color/tone) is different 4. response time - this one is comparable (also related to firmware), you have a normal mode the 32Q suppose to have 6ms and 3ms on OD, this one is 8ms normal and 3ms on OD (or 2.92...ms whatever supposedly a .08 tad better on OD than 32Q) - well response time is varied for a lot of different panels (by different makers), a lot of times you see monitor brand advertising 2ms, 1ms, however they are not true consistent ms across the board, they'll just take the best ms time of the favorable game and put it there, in other games it may be 5-15ms with real world use. So dont trust the shortest ms number. it's also hard for the manufacturer to test all the games out there, so they'll just average this based on their standard software test suits. => what's important is that for your personal use, if you dont see ghosting or artifacts on the screen for your game then it's good enough, my 2 cents (i have OD turn off with the 32Q, i dont see any ghosting/artifact/blurring or other issue), that's why i decided to add this monitor => i checked the samsung 32" curved ($619), even though it says 1ms response time, however people have post in real testing G2G by tftcentral it goes from 5ms to 37.5ms, so you see what's going on => i rather go with a brand such as viotek (where customer service is excellent, you can see they respond to every post here), great hardware, and honest specs (they are conservative with their number and only post based on their own testing rather than going with the most favorable number but misleading)
