  1. so i figured out what i'm gonna play next...
  2. For my collection of artifacts (it's actually an xmas gift for a guy i know named mike):
  3. So I finally finished playing Quake II RTX yesterday evening, which I really enjoyed. Now to decide what's next.
  4. i liked me some irish punk... and some not so punk...
  5. Been watching US and Canadian sources/stock levels for a while now (I don't use Performance PCs because they and I parted ways) and decided to finally order what follows. Direct from AquaComputer:
  6. Ha! This just started showing up today (I do have an ASUS TPM module though which I'll install before I upgrade):
  7. If you mean the demo RTX version of Quake II, I'll give it a go once I've tightened up my setup Still adjusting things here, running Time Spy, etc.
  8. QUAKE 4 (it's the boomer in me). It's actually the first game I installed on the newest build, the KPE 3090/5950X combo. Next up: not sure, but I've got enough to keep me busy for the foreseeable future.
  9. Looks like it's starting to come back to life again. This was a tad interesting though (who knows what really happened):
  10. Wouldn't be surprised if Mark was somehow behind the outage given what else is in the news Wouldn't bother me though if the change was permanent (...and suddenly millions of retired boomers are having to speak to their spouses for the first time in years)
  11. It's all over the 'net now. Wouldn't be surprised if it somehow ties into to that whistleblower who came out of the closet the other day. As per the subject title (I ran the whois for facebook.com a few moments ago and verified the nuked dn records):
  12. He actually goes by "M-oll." For detailed info, see this post on OCN. I've included links to the legal source docs in that post which spell out who M-oll actually is and where he's located (as far as the court of record is concerned): Purchaser Jan Emil Victor Rytterstedt, c/o Jan & Carina Rytterstedt Högstavägen 21 872 92 Kramfors, Sweden That address can also be found via Google Maps:
  13. Thanks, bud I might add some color once the Optimus block shows up.
  14. Thanks, E. Did you do a fresh install, or upgrade from a WIN 10 instance?
  15. Wondering just how compatible WIN 11 will be with software like Aquasuite, and all the devices and their drivers associated with it.
  16. bant coz deja vu too... also coz all hell o's eve is just around the corner and this year i'm going as
  17. So the latest iteration of the bench looks like this: The following changes have been made: Swapped out the WaterCool Ind. Dual Top and 2x WaterCool PWM D5 pumps; replaced those with an AquaComputer Dual D5 Top and 2x NEXT D5 pumps; Swapped out the large KING 0-3.8GPM Flowmeter (Rotameter); replaced it with a smaller KING 0-2.0GPM Flowmeter; Tightened up some of the component level coolant lines, replacing a few that were TYGON; replaced those with 16mm OD Bitspower Crystal Link acrylic hard tubing; Added a support bracket to the bench for the QD disconnects between the radiators and the components being cooled by them. While far more testing would have to be done to state anything conclusive, my gut feeling about the dual D5 pump setups (Watercool vs. Aquacomputer) is that they're similar in flow outputs (that's a guess based on my observations). Rearranging the coolant lines and repositioning the radiators did seem to give me a good deal more head pressure though, and air in the system cleared out far easier/quicker than it did previously. More pix follow:
  18. Perhaps, but It does help tell a story about something that once was and will likely never be again. For instance, see that GE plaque behind it in the image? That came out of an engine room of one of the many liberty ships built and used during WWII. Per Wikipedia, Liberty ships were a class of cargo ship built in the United States during World War II. Though British in concept, the design was adopted by the United States for its simple, low-cost construction. Mass-produced on an unprecedented scale, the Liberty ship came to symbolize U.S. wartime industrial output.
  19. It showed up (Replaced the cheap Amazon Special, Made in China desk fan that failed on me with one that's more than 100 years old):
  20. Congrats, E--glad you were able to take care of that relatively quickly.
