  1. Yes I do hope Lazada stays on. It's great to have a cash on delivery option. I actually just started using Aliexpress recently. Have ordered about 7 items all from China and so far it's been good. Average wait is about 12-14 days.

  2. Yep what everyone is saying here is true. Pings are the issue. Depending on where your game servers are the provider CAN make a difference eg: my game servers in Australia ping 150ms on my TRUE adsl and 300ms on TOT Fiber. Have you tried WTFast? That actually works well - I was able to get 150ms pings with it on TOT but the free service is no longer available so I stopped using it. Subscription is fairly cheap though and it's easy to use. However wtfast cannot improve on the physical limitations of the internet so, for example you would never get below 200ms to any US server.

  3. Jumped on the recent promotion in my area. 20/7 for 750p/month. Free installation and modem and first 6 months is 100thb/month! Will be cancelling my TRUE adsl but keeping the TOT Fiber2U. TOT Fiber has been good and very consistent but international routing gets changed often so can't play online games half the time. TRUE adsl has good pings to my game servers but general usage is AWFUL. Hopefully AIS will find the perfect mix of the two. Will know in a week or so.

  4. I don't recall at the moment and the laptop is currently at my office but I know it has "SRS Premium Sound". From the DELL website:

    Product not tested for Windows 10 upgrade

    Dell is not testing or developing Windows 10 drivers for this product. If you choose to upgrade, some features, applications, and connected devices may not work as expected.

    I'll put 8.1 on there sometime soon. On the DELL drivers page there isn't even an option for W10 under the OS options. No biggie, it's a relic that I don't want to hold onto much longer.

  5. OP is your computer a DELL notebook by chance? Same thing happened to my Inspiron N5110. Apparently there/s no (proper) W10 driver for IDT sound system. That was the only problem I had with Windows 10 but it was enough to make me roll back to W7. It's an old piece of shlt laptop anyway, can't wait to get a new one.

    Sorry, but i could get all upgrades for my really old DELL 1440 Inspirion. Going back is like giving up. Sorry. facepalm.gif

    Mine got all the upgrades too. The problem is the lowered volume for that specific audio chip and the lack of extra functions that the W10 driver takes away. The W7 driver includes a GUI that allows you to change SRS sound features, such as Bass, Surround, Speaker Setup etc. Sure the volume issue could be fixed with a portable / headphone amp but I'm not willing to either: (a) leave one in the office and wait for it to be stolen, or (B) go through the hassle of plugging/unplugging an extra device several times each day.

  6. To the OP did you install the software for your SSD? I have one Intel and an ADATA ssd and they both come with a program to maintain and optimize the drives. They recommend you run the optimization once a week or so.

  8. I usually make 2 orders with Lazada each month. Use my wife's work as the delivery address (large, well known office building in Chatuchak) as it's much more reliable than using the home muubaan address. Super impressed with the service. Good order tracking on their website and android app and I almost always get my orders before the expected delivery date. Being able to pay COD is just icing on the cake. I suspect a lot of people's problems come from the specific retailers and not Lazada itself. I make sure to take note of which shops items are coming from and have built up a list of reliable sellers, just like people do with Aliexpress. Check the seller's rating before you buy.

  9. Sound Magic E10 - one of the best bang for the buck ....$35 can be order and shipped from Singapore or HK depending on the seller online

    Yes, I've been hearing good things about those too (also available on Lazada). Was going to get some until people started talking about the LZ Z03A which unfortunately I can only get from Aliexpress. Waiting for a comparison before I pull the trigger on either.

    yea I got my E10 couple years ago, seems like they have most of the popular brands on lazada now, prices are competitive too which is a plus.

    I love these budget earphones that perform well against big brands that cost 2-3x

    I just bought the Vsonic VSD3 couple months ago, great sound too, but I don't like the shape and fitment in my ear

    Well you can always pop them in the mail and send to me heheh. They do have a very unusual shape. My current daily drivers are ROCK Zircon and KZ ED9. Zircon is super bass heavy though, a little too heavy for some genres.
