More pixels on the same sensor size means smaller photosites. Less light gathering capability means more noise in low light. That requires binning pixels together to boost the area... 200 Mpixels would be a useless complication, a solution in search of problems.

For bass and travel I have the Sony WH1000XM2 :)

Probably you like the bass blowing your brain? Grado are not at all piercing... And they fit $100 requirement. Sure there are other better. But at $200-300... https://www.whathifi.com/grado/sr80i/review A good buy, but over the price target : AKG Acoustics K701 Reference...

As a rule of thumb, open back headphones are overwhelmingly more faithful to the audio program, without coloring the sound. However they leak sound outside, so they can be used only at home. Closed back headphones can color the sound, and that includes enhancing the bass... Some people like...

No. There are other numbers that are more meaningful and you can look at the site linked above too. However, if you are listening to compressed mp3 or online music... it might not matter what headphones you have. Will sound bad with any headphones. There are good headphones with decent prices...

Everyone can claim 20-20k band. In reality no headphone is perfectly linear in that band. Those small irregularities translate in "coloring" the original sound. Also, the mechanics of the diaphragm can create intermodulation and distortion (THD) and that's not captured by the band numbers. You...

It's not bad, 4th generation Intel CPU, but you need more info about that because from factory they came in various configurations: Core™ i7 Extreme, i7, and i5 processor options, AMD FirePro™ and NVIDIA Quadro® graphics options with up to 8GB* of GDDR5. Those can make a big difference. I saw on...

That video is integrated in CPU and uses the system memory (RAM), it doesn't have a "dedicated" VRAM as a normal video card. The amount will increase/decrease based on the actual usage and that portion will be "reserved" by the OS and signaled as "dedicated" in DX Diag. Vista didn't have that...

The level of "support" varies between different editors. Last version of Pinnacle that I have used was 18.5 and, even with GPU acceleration being enabled, the performance was behind the PowerDirector, because this one uses for encoding the new nvidia NVENC encoder (not the CUDA cores). I had to...

Theoretically it is. Practically Pinnacle, since it was bought by Corel, it was left behind in development. I used to own both Pinnacle and Corel, but now I have switched to Cyberlink PowerDirector because of their constant support of newer video cards capabilities. Also a word of advise - the...

You are wasting your money, with that gaming computer, that's all. If you must, you can get a laptop from the professional line from a used source - usually former business lease programs. Less headaches in the future. Besides my workhorse Dell T3500 with a 6/12 core Xeon and 24GB or RAM, I...

Just get a Desktop Workstation instead of wasting the money on that gaming laptop garbage. For the same money you can get something serious. And yes, Quadro are really working faster - I have suffered form the illusion that "GeForce as as good" untill I replaced the Quadro in my work computer...

You will be saving money right now if you ditch the laptop and go for a entry level workstation. That laptop can be $3000, you get a nice workstation, upgradable in the future, plus nice big dual LCD screens, for that amount.
