  1. My 1070's suffer when my Wife and I play Valheim, but it's cool we can leave them folding.
  2. Valheim! My Wife and I have been together for 13 years. We used to play Wii like 10 years ago, but then there was nothing until an ocn buddy bought me Valheim. She got hooked, and we play it together after the kids go to bed. It's really easy to just chill and do things on it. I can see why it's so popular. I was always more into things like Racing, Sports. I think it would be cool if we had some sort of server here for it.
  3. I figured this might be a good way to watch our progression as a team, and have a post to reflect on. Probably will ramble a little from time to time, but it's all good fun. I have a snapshot of folding statistics before the recent event. I'm going to hang onto that one in my back pocket for future reference. The days leading up to the 20th Anniversary Event had a progressively downward trend. Let's just say I'm hoping we can change that. Historically, a big event leads to a significant drop that usually progresses from a point higher than prior to the event, but downward in the ensuing days back near production before the event. As you can see, that is not this case right now. We're gaining momentum, and it's really great to see that in a mining rules environment. I'm hoping new events and a little buzz might keep us moving upward. Also, Bastian is beating the entire top 20 combined, but there wasn't even a top 20 before the event. And way down here I'll say there may be a Dolled Up 2 because my Wife is almost a cosmetologist at this point with all of her Jeffree Star Makeup. That twitch video is on YouTube by the way. It's not that hard to find, and the 1st 8 minutes should be muted mostly if you actually watch it.

    Ryzen 3600 Help?

    The reduced temps did allow me to do a higher PBO. Lower temps do help it do a little more clock speed.
  5. I mean, banana seemed like the safe thing to say ?
  6. This may form a banana if @axipher doesn't recruit some folders for Furry Folders ??
  7. Dang, that's quite a bit of nice hardware.
  8. Speaking of USPS, I watched a shipment cross my whole state of Ohio 3x, yes completely, before it showed up late. Performance PC's VIP? I bought a powerstrip that's long and attached it to the back of my desk. I then got every cable off of the floor for the first time ever. I also got rid of my monitor stand which took up entirely too much desk space and bought a vessa swivel armed wall mount. I had to cut and grind a vessa plate down to not cover the wiring inputs.

    Ryzen 3600 Help?

    I'm going to give you my perspective since zen3 has the same issues, if not worse. First, these chips can run at 90C+ and not thermal throttle. Not saying that's the best idea, but the spurts of usage PBO causes should not cause an issue. The chip is designed to run hott when needed, but we all hate seeing those high temps. I have 2x 360 RADS with RGB push fans that just look cool, and 6 ultra kaze pull fans (push fans are not sealed and have plenty of gaps and ultra kaze's are sealed to the back). I use an EK Supremacy Evo right now, but have a Heatkiller 4 Pro in the mail to me after ordering it like nearly 25 days ago! Anyway, in your PBO OC Menu in the bios, you may be able to set the EDC, TDC, PPT limits. Do a p95 run and watch what hwinfo picks up as the max, and then set each to that. It should alone be a 10C or so drop. Let me know how that goes because PBO is way better than All Core Fixed Voltage in Single Threaded applications and low usage scenario's by about 5-10% per my testing. CTR is another option you could look into. 1usmus made that program. Stick with the live builds. If you need help using that program, let me know. It will basically test for max all core oc and you can set it to do a short run at a higher clock, and then default to a lower OC for extended all core usage. When low usage, it defaults to PBO. They also have a beta I've been testing that does it's own PBO, but I haven't had good luck with it yet. It's still Beta.
  10. Here, this is all of them except for the Firebird I get yearly to restore for my Father-in-law. More pictures!!!
  11. I'll just do a video of 2 of my favorite cars I have.
  12. Banned cuz guy, but girl, but guy, but who knows.
  13. Oh man! That sounds epic! This thing has had a few songs available to listen to before the release, but man, I love how they just intro with all instrumentals and no lyrics on track one! Like, hey, remember us and our motivational instrumental riffs?
  14. This testing has concluded. The site will be re-written.
  15. Yeah, they aren't real teams lol. I'm pretty hairy. Axi picked his team name first, so I tried to make mine the opposite.
  16. Go team go! Let's make some waves.
  17. Yeah, I wasn't around for that TC stats site migration on a staff level, so the focus has shifted to http://tc.axihub.ca/ if you'd like to see our testing functionality. Just be aware that we have to test a lot of things out, and that some totals may be off due to that. Like Furry Folders currently has a handicap I input as an offset if you remember that term from a long time ago. PM me if you would like for me to add 1 piece of hardware with it's own dedicated passkey to the site just to test more things out. If you don't know how, I do and we can PM about it.
