  1. I saved a few bucks going with Bosch. They work great in the Audi, but are oem in it. Audi let's them breathe, but they're pretty buried in the twin turbo. We'll see how they hold up to the heat.
  2. Lower grille (fell off and broke) plus an oil level sensor for the Audi S4 and coils for the BMW 750i.
  3. My business is 1.5 months away from being debt free. My ETH hash is just over 1.2 MH/s. I saw my revenue estimates hit $3,200 mo. 1 day last week, and it keeps growing every time the miners get more out of LHR. If not for LHR, I'd be above 1.5. When the debt is gone, I'm looking forward to actually playing with these cards. I will start holding coins and folding more. Someone we might all remember from ocn, not going to name him, restored an old wallet he thought was gone forever with 8.3 BTC in it and cashed out at $65,000 per coin. If anything has that btc growth potential within the next 5 years, it would have to be ethereum.
  4. Double is a bit much. Everyone's going to need new Power Supplies again.I think double the performance and power makes sense on the top tier cards though. Many would welcome that fps boost, and you can always power limit if it's a big concern, but doing the same doubling on the lower end models seems a bit tragic for those on tight budgets. I'm pretty excited with the potential for double performance. Maybe we'll see 240hz 4k in this generation.
  5. Not gonna lie, I almost replied with Pole Position, seriously.
  6. The kids play FH4, so FH5 soon, NFS Heat, and a few other randoms.
  7. My Father-in-Law and I picked up this 2008 Ford Focus SES for $1,000. It actually has 251,000 miles and somehow the transmission still feels solid. 3 of 4 plugs were full of oil, 1 coil pack was arking at the top because the boot was stretched, the plastic heater core hose sprung a leak driving it home, but the plan is to fix it up and give it to a new single Mother in need. So far, I've replaced the valve cover gaskets, plugs, cleaned all of the wheel speed sensors, added the missing rear abs tone rings, coil packs, heater hose (aluminum this time), sway bar link, oil/filter, coolant, scrubbed it inside and out, and restored the headlights. I've been driving it around to see if it will break, but somehow it's pretty solid. All codes cleared and staying off. What's left to do is the front bumper, passenger splash guard, passenger fog light, fix an exhaust leak, and hardcore paint correction.

  9. Oh I bet they were a bit upset that the multi-core was still lower than AMD, but that Single Core is a huge jump. I may have all AMD right now, but I was never as happy with basic functions on AMD vs my older Intel rigs. I really should consider an Intel rig though. Anubis1127 has both current gens, and likes the Intel better, but he's sort of a memory junkie, so it's easy to see one big reason why. His memory benchmarks were way higher on Intel still. Do you know what AMD is brewing up behind the scenes by chance?
  10. Sounds very monotonous. I'm sure she'll be glad to be home.
  11. I have a few things to get firmed up, and then I will finally draw the prizes for this event. Should be done by tonight.
  12. Yep, got your PM, and I put that GPU in for her. That sounds like fun. I also watched your video a few days ago. I hope you're both doing well.
  13. All of the PPD! Honestly, at that price it's a huge flop considering 2 3080tis can match it's MH/s for $2,600.
  14. I remember when that was allegedly bad because it was said to consume system resources. That might have been in the 90's though.
  15. When I put the 2080 into the ETF rig for FAT, the slot # changed for the 960, and the units have been dropping under BWG instead of hertz9753. It was 3 work units that were missing from the stats, so I added those just now. Should be all fixed now going forward.
  16. Yeah, that stinks. I've had a few situations like that, so I actually have my Samsung Galaxy Book S hooked up to Verizon sharing a wifi hotspot 24/7 in the event that my main internet goes down. I know, it's a luxury, but it helped prevent a few losses of income on the mining side of things.
  17. It's finally available! The long awaited 4.0 m.2 to gpu adapter to unlock some ppd for f@h. Should arrive just before my birthday in December, but fingers crossed.
  18. Next month, couple people might have something for you @damric Stock clock 706 About to see what I gain on the next wu. It's on my HFM.
  19. Inner pookie dookie dropped in toilet and flushed/banned.
  20. So, what you are saying is I'm not worth $300+? Sorry for sounding like a Wife.
  21. .11 Looks like @firedflypre-committed to losing this FAT, so I'm going to win.
  22. BWG

    Just run HWINFO and watch the max values for each, and then set them around that in the bios.
