    Just tried and so far I can't get F@H to work with the Arc. Only detects CPU. When I go to slots and manually add a GPU it comes up as disabled.

    Y'all already know I'm in. Might not have all the firepower online by then. Pulling apart two rigs to rob parts to build my mom a PC, then upgrading those rigs. All of which are SFF/ITX rigs and two of the three will have custom loops so idk how fast I'll turn all that around. May just run the 7700x + A770 air cooled for a while but I'm pretty sure F@H doesn't support Arc yet.

    Ok, but can we have a rundown on what is in your torturer bag?

    They won't be that limited lol. Think more along the lines of participation award. For now I'm just talking about stickers of the existing logo. If I were to come up with something original, I'd run it by E for approval before making anything.
  6. Fluxmaven
    Fine. I'll come up with a super limited run of stickers and/or vinyl decals. The catch is that I'll only offer them as foldathon prizes.

    I actually was interested in the O11 when it first came out. Most people went with the dynamic but they made an air version at one point. I held up hope the new PC v3000 would come out and eventually gave up and got other cases entirely.

    By the time I stop getting sent out of town for work and actually get time to play with the card it will run great

    Because I'm an idiot and like weird overpriced crap... I like running cases that not everyone and their sister has. I prefer thick aluminum vs stamped steel. I enjoy non standard layouts. When I help friends build PCs we go with cheaper cases because to them it's just the box that holds the parts.

    Unfortunately my mom sold her embroidery machine when she moved earlier this year. Could have made some cool stuff. I might just make or commission a small batch of stickers since those would be cheap to mail to everybody. I'll have to experiment a bit. I know at least one of the silhouette vinyl cutters works. I haven't touched my wide format photo printer in a couple years so it might be fubar from neglect lol.

    Thermalfake vs Caselabs... Usually starts off as a mild disagreement then goes off the rails

    I want stickers for my test bench... And possibly custom keycaps like on the old OCN Ducky boards.

    I can't hardly stand to browse r/watercooling anymore. Most of the builds are the same overdone crap. When people ask for advice 100 people come out of the woodwork to toss their 2 cents even if they have almost no experience. "buy EK mystic fog, it looks cool. Don't worry about the haters, I've had it in for 2 weeks and my system hasn't blown up yet".

    My main PC is still in an LD cooling case. Sadly mine is just the LD PC-V7 so just custom watercooling, no phase change. I used to have a 4790k and the same RAM that was used in this video as well.

    Not surprised that sales are down. Prices are still wack. After the holidays the demand will drop even further. AMD's cards will be out by then so hopefully it encourages Nvidia to drop prices a bit.

    Damn dude... You just got that thing back. Amazon.com WWW.AMAZON.COM

    Crazy to see how far we've come on storage speeds/capacities. I still have a stack of old firelite external HDDs that I used to think were amazing (until USB 3.0 came out and everyone forgot about firewire lol).
  18. Fluxmaven
    Not a lot to see on mine . Primary monitor is a 48" OLED so I auto hide task bar and don't have desktop icons.

    That synthwave Akira poster is dope

    I like the idea, but it could use some work. IDK why they went with such thick grill slats. At $525 you could DIY the same thing with an Alphacool rad for less money or build out a legit MO-RA3 setup for around the same.
  21. Fluxmaven
    Depends on the CPU but I'd want more rad space. Open frame is best case scenario for rads since there's fresh air intake and no restrictions. Any case is going to perform slightly to moderately worse depending on airflow. It also comes down to your expectations. If you have some powerful fans you don't mind running at full blast, you can get away with less radiator. If you want to push overclocks, or have the system be quiet, you'll need more rad. Most mid tower cases support multiple radiators.
  22. Fluxmaven
    Are you planning on cooling a 3080ti and a CPU with just one 360mm rad? What case are you using currently and how much smaller are you realistically trying to go? The 360GTX and 200mm reservoir already rule out anything SFF.

    Lately I've just been hopping on the new CoD MW2 for a couple games then getting off. I need to start diving back into some of my unfinished games. Nier Replicant, Cyberpunk 2077, and FF7 Remake. Going to replay Portal once the RTX mod is released.

    Price drop and better free RAM are what pushed me to go ahead and grab a new Ryzen chip now. Microcenter has been offering free DDR5 kits on Zen4 pretty much since launch but originally it was a 5600CL36. Now they are handing out free 6000CL30 kits. Once more ITX boards are out, I'll grab something better to put in the Gene and move the 7700x into my bedroom rig. Until then, I bought a direct die frame for my 10850K and will be experimenting with it a bit more.
  25. Fluxmaven
    Picked up the stuff I ordered at Microcenter after work... Place was a zoo. Crosshair X670E Gene Ryzen 7700X Free G.Skill FlareX DDR5 6000cl30 kit
