    Comparing a car without an ECU to a car you don't own anymore...

    Guilty as charged... But they look so good! Banned for calling my love for great products 'ocd'

    Scared me for a moment there...

    Weather is great, backpack is waiting behind me, why not? Banned.

    No way... That really sucks I can imagine the anger receiving something like that, what a waste of that card! And what on earth have they done during shipping to cause damage like that? It's not really easy to bend that bracket, must have been pretty brute force.

    That's about what I would drink at work if I wouldn't say no to 99% of the coffee they offer me Banned for making me think about work..

    That is expensive indeed, but it looks like a great block! I ordered 2 480 xflow rads and a 140 xflow rad from Alphacool. Those rads will work really great with the layout I have in mind with the 1000D case and it should fit without a problem. Next up is a lot of fans, some tubing and fittings and a second pump.

    We'll see, 2080ti seems a bit lower than before too. Doing about 5.1 mil now with the right units, could be better but it's not bad.

    Looks great @BWG! A lot cleaner and organized @Diffident I remember 29 cards I've owned, of which 21 different models. This is what I remember: 8600gt 9800gt gtx275x2 gts250x2 gts450x3 gtx460sx2 gtx480x2 gtx580 980ti m40 2080ti 2080s 1660ti 1650s 3060 3070ti 3090x2 5700xtx2 hd3850 hd4850 hd6870

    Are you trying to beat @J7SC_Orion with the most fans of a single type/brand? That looks really good, can't wait to see the finished product!
  11. Bastiaan_NL
    That sucks I hope you can get it fixed without too much trouble, good luck!
  12. Bastiaan_NL
    Look to the left here, I'm ready to dive in the pool...
  13. Bastiaan_NL
    It does help that one of them offers money to beat the other Besides that, I've given up anyways cause it's impossible to beat @BWG straight up.
  14. Bastiaan_NL
    That's cause we like 'it' so much.
  15. Bastiaan_NL
    Ok, I'm out...

    Using magnets is a great idea. But maybe instead of using plastic to hold the magnet you could plastic weld in some high nuts and use a little bolt with the nut on the end to adjust it. The best plastic welding is actually melting a bit of the original plastic while applying the new material. Maybe even heating up more than just the part you are welding to help the proces a bit.

    53.5mil 24h average, pretty crazy! Nice job, and the money is on its way I'm not sure if it's a good idea to do this every month, cause I know the payout was not enough to cover the costs! 'You' is Firedfly or the whole team?
  18. Bastiaan_NL
    It's not easy to match the color and texture after fixing it. I did some plastic work years ago on one of my cases and it looked alright, but not perfect. At least you'll need to plastic weld it on the inside, and put the panel in a clamp or something to close the crack. I'm pretty sure glue will not hold on hard plastic like that. You will still see the crack afterwards. If there is not much texture on the panel it'll work in your favor, but looking at that last picture there is a bit of discoloring so you'll have to paint the whole panel or nothing.

    Let's hope this will work, fingers crossed!
  20. Bastiaan_NL
    Looking good, though it's way too small for me Fingers crossed that everything works! Not easy to install something in there afterwards..

    Sadly she's keeping all the hardware..

    A Corsair Obsidian 1000D is on its way to me, the Fractal Design 7XL is not big enough for what I want. A few members had some advice on other big cases, but the square boxes are too wide to fit where I want the system to be. @BWG Ordered an EVGA 3090 NVlink bridge for me, I can't get that one over here. (And guess what that means.. ) Against all advice from @J7SC_Orion and all the recent complaints about issues with their blocks I was desperate enough to order a pair of EKWB Quantum FTW3 blocks and pre-ordered the active backplates. I really hope I'm lucky, fingers crossed..

    At this point I'm really starting to understand that frustration. And to be honest, my M40 has been 'parked' next to the workstation. Building and modifying is something I love, but figuring out all the errors etc is not my thing.
  24. Bastiaan_NL
    Something is not right there, 2h 15m tpf is way too high! (1m 20s on a 3060)
  25. Bastiaan_NL
    Happy to help
