[austere ruin]

Why does it look so ugly 😭

[vapid smelt]

Because RGB

[white finch]

cuz balck parts in white case plus ram not same and stock cooler

[austere ruin]

Also it wont boot into windows now after swapping the cpu and updating the bios

Idk if its not detecting the boot drives or what

[plucky thorn]

RGB is tight bruh

[plucky thorn]

Make sure your BIOS update didn't change your boot priority

check the boot device priority in the BIOS

[austere ruin]

It was set to eufi hardrive for 1

[austere ruin]

I think its not detecting anything but im not sure

[plucky thorn]

Idk how you had it set before so that doesn't really help. Just make sure it's set to boot from the correct drive that Windows is on

if none of that works, use a Live distro or something to check the drives that's what I do

but if the drive is showing up in your bios it should be able to be booted from

you can use the Windows recovery option to fix the bootloader too if that's the problem

[austere ruin]

Idk i bought the storrage and mbo from my friend and i didnt rlly check the configuration before i switched around parts

[austere ruin]

I dont think it is

U think i should flash the bios again?

[plucky thorn]

Oh I was assuming you just upgraded your CPU and BIOS, but you're saying the drive with windows on it is from a different system too?

[austere ruin]

Same system but i swapped the cpu and gpu

And case

[plucky thorn]

Gotcha

[austere ruin]

Gna add an aio later

[plucky thorn]

create windows recovery media and run startup repair

[austere ruin]

Or maybe return the case before that cause im not rlly liking it

[plucky thorn]

I'd start there

after you ensure the drive is showing up in your BIOS

[vapid smelt]

Get a case with a non glass side panel then you don't need to worry about looks

[austere ruin]

Alr i was thinking maybe making a windows 11 setup usb and checking if the storage is even readable

[plucky thorn]

Ye if you make that it will have the recovery options

[austere ruin]

I want it to look nice maybe ill go with a black case instead

I think an aio would fix some of the ugliness

[plucky thorn]

I like a glass side panel for practical reasons. I can see my fans spinning just by glancing lol. I had a CPU cooler that wouldn't spin up for a while and it was nice to just look over and see it's running

rather than wait till it boots up and analyze my temps

[austere ruin]

Would a 3 slot gpu and aio fix the ugliness a little or nah

Or maybe a case thats white outside and black inside

[plucky thorn]

A black case and fans would match the rest better, but tbh you have a nice PC I wouldn't worry about the looks if it were me

legit I went all out on looks when I built my PC, RGB, matching colors, and now I just leave it all off all the time because it's bright af and I'm usually in a dark room lol

[austere ruin]

Yeah i had white fans laying around so i thought id go with a white case

Ig that was my mistake

Cant even get into windows to change the rgb to a solid colour

[plucky thorn]

Well it's the MOBO and other black stuff that really throws it off. Black fans wouldn't look any better, but it don't look bad imo

[austere ruin]

Ive seen black mobos look good in some white builds but this is not it fs

[plucky thorn]

I saw a post where a guy used spray on Plasti Dip to change the color of his components, but with the price of hardware these days I wouldn't risk that lol

[austere ruin]

Yeah i just wanted a nice looking pc cause my other ones r basic

But tbh this somehow looks worse

[austere ruin]

This one looks a lot better

[plucky thorn]

Yeah I don't wanna rain on your parade but I do think that looks cleaner

But hey, keep the white one for a future build dude

it's still good parts

Case and fan form factors don't change that often so it will still be viable most likely

[austere ruin]

I think if i get white rgb cables going into the mbo and gpu, a white aio and set all the rgb colours to a solid blue or red colour itd make it better

[frigid frost]

What do you think? I think its possible that scrapyard wars may start soon (filming) because they had more jawa ads than usual

[plucky thorn]

I'd add some black to the case somehow too. Think like Storm Trooper aesthetic, white and black

the fans are cool tho I'd keep those

[austere ruin]

Black fans might do that i have a ton of all black fans

[plucky thorn]

the fans you have are so badass tho

[austere ruin]

True i rlly wanted to use them on a build thats why i went with the white case

[white finch]

what made you choose a white case

[austere ruin]

The fans i had lol

[white finch]

https://giphy.com/gifs/speed-ishowspeed-ishowmeat-SSSFLrolJMWntt6ntq

what made you choose white fans

[plucky thorn]

If you got a White AIO that would do a lot of heavy lifting looks wise, and you'll get better temps than with that wraith prism. The wraith prism is good for a stock cooler, but I had to replace mine as it would ramp up loud

[austere ruin]

I think this gpu would make it a little better too cause its wider and it wouldnt make the black area look so small

[austere ruin]

I had them laying around

Got them for cheap dont remember how

[plucky thorn]

You could always fasion a DIY white backplate for the GPU too. Like you don't even have to remove that one just a cool looking insert

[austere ruin]

But i think it was like $6 or $8

[austere ruin]

I can easily 3d print one i think

I should have white asa i think itd work

[white finch]

if you want it to look good put the black parts in a black case thats it

[austere ruin]

Yeah fair enough but i checked n they rnt just gna let me return it after i already opened it

So im stuck with the case lol

[plucky thorn]

Idk he could make it work with like a white/black aesthetic. It doesn't have to be monocolor

[white finch]

not in this instance not even white gpu and stock cooler

[austere ruin]

The stock cooler is temporary

[white finch]

if it was white tower cooler and white gpu it wouldve looked 10 times better

[austere ruin]

Im getting an aio

[white finch]

and also the ram sticks mismatched

[austere ruin]

Yeah i was also going to fix that

[plucky thorn]

I think it can. He just needs more black on/in the case parts.

You could even paint parts of the case

[austere ruin]

Yeah if i painted the inside black it might save it

[white finch]

🥀 are we deadass

[plucky thorn]

I wouldn't do all the inside. I'd do accents in black

and then add white accents to the components

[white finch]

i wouldnt paint the case at all

[austere ruin]

But tbh i think an aio and rgb extension for the mbo and gpu would save it

[plucky thorn]

I think it would be fun

[austere ruin]

But not sure

Also the making the lights a solid colour

[plucky thorn]

if you aren't married to the idea, I like Plasti-dip. It's a matte finish and it's removable. It just peels off. Like if you don't wanna paint it permanently

I've used plasti-dip on guitars before, just for fun

[white finch]

how much ram is that

[austere ruin]

32gb

[white finch]

4x8 missmatched

what speed is it working at

[austere ruin]

3200

Theyre all the same brand too

[white finch]

is it working at 3200 tho

yea all corsair i see

[austere ruin]

Yeah

[white finch]

looks like the msi b550m vc

propably a 5500/5600 and a 6700xt

[austere ruin]

5600 6750xt

[white finch]

close enough

[austere ruin]

Might swap stuff around tho i have a 5700x and a tripple fan 3060

[white finch]

i would upgrade to am5

[austere ruin]

Nah i have too much am4 stuff to upgrade

[white finch]

sell all

[austere ruin]

I have a msi b550i mbo and a 3600

And some other stuff cant remember

[plucky thorn]

Too expensive rn

[austere ruin]

Idk im not a hardcore gamer i mostly play marvel rivals and valorant

[white finch]

[austere ruin]

Plus ddr5 would murder my wallet

[white finch]

bro picked the 2 worst games

[austere ruin]

I wanna play spiderman

[plucky thorn]

Ye same here. I play mostly older single player games. I don't see the need to upgrade to a new platform and DDR5. AM4 is still plenty for what I do at home

[white finch]

sonbrero i need an itx board too

[austere ruin]

U wouldnt even fathom how much i paid for it

[white finch]

30$

[austere ruin]

$15

[white finch]

everything working?

[austere ruin]

Yes lol

[white finch]

damn

heavenly deal

[austere ruin]

Got it from a store i used to work at n they gave me a discount

[white finch]

basicly gave it away

[austere ruin]

Yeah i did take a gamble tho

Didnt know if it was working or not

Was going to do an itx build till i found out how much itx stuff costs

The cases alone cost more than some builds i made

[white finch]

chinese case

[austere ruin]

True but then wb psu

And most need a gpu riser cable

[white finch]

all from china

thats what i do

[austere ruin]

Itx psus cost more than i can afford

[white finch]

sfx psus are super cheap

[austere ruin]

Actually i lied

If i could return the case id definitely do an itx build tbh

[white finch]

i wanna make a small build witha 4080m

frankenstein laptop gpu in desktop shroud

[austere ruin]

Thatd be cool asf

[white finch]

im looking for a case rn for it

its a 2 fan so it wont fit in a super tiny case

[austere ruin]

Looking for cases is exhausting tbh

I saw a rlly nice white wood accent case with that was black on the inside i wish i got that instead

[loud fractal]

[loud fractal]

im new to the channel.

[harsh quartz]

Wait, like officially? Cause I knew with celestial they said it wasn’t gonna have a dGPU option, is this the same thing or is this new news?

god i fucking hate clickbait

thats not even clickbait thats just lying

[hot tartan]

yeah I think it's just Celestial for now, we don't know about future GPUs

[harsh quartz]

the way i understand it, this gen isnt even celstial, its the intel special of being like a battlemage 2.5 refresh or something, which is why they said that there wont be DGPUs with it

but also dGPU =/= ARC, cause the arc iGPUs are pretty good too

[hot tartan]

yeah, Intel GPU has gotten messy with Celestial

[hot tartan]

oh yeah Arc is sticking around, it kicks ass in the iGPU department, and whatever the future versions of PTL are will continue to use Arc iGPUs

we just might not see dGPUs for a little bit

[harsh quartz]

which is fine. but saying its dead flat out is just lying

realistically the GPU cycle had to slow down at some point, and its been struggling to keep pace for a while. ARC was a nice refresher but we dont need new gpus every 2 years

[jolly mist]

Son, Xbox mode is out for me but I can’t start it up on Xbox mode

[hot tartan]

realistically should be like 3 years, maybe 1-1.5 years into the cycle release a super refresh or something, but every 3 years is pretty good

[harsh quartz]

yeah but you know what i mean, even that is pretty fast for new generations, its gotta slow down eventually

[hot tartan]

yeah

The action is rooted in a suspicion that a Norwegian-registered company is operating as a cover for a Chinese state actor's attempt to establish a receiver for satellite downloads from satellites in polar orbits suitable for collecting data that could harm fundamental Norwegian interests if they become known to a foreign state. It concerns complicity in attempts at serious intelligence activities against state secrets.

People have work.

[short rock]

no dig whatsoever on people that get notifications like these.

But i sincerely pray to god that I never get a notification like this.

[plush grotto]

It tells me that when I finish my shift my car is fully charged, and I can go unplug it and let someone else take the charger

[short rock]

if that was me I'd absolutely do some dumb shit like forget to plug my car in

it's bad enough that my devices keep dying as is if my car was electric I'd absolutely drain it and be stranded on the side of the road

[plush grotto]

I did have 90km range in it when I plugged it in.

[hollow token]

my gas car takes like 2 minutes to fill

but if I had the cash to get an in-home charger I'd be that more favorable toward owning an ev

[plush grotto]

15-20 minutes and a new EV has like 300km range

[hollow token]

oof

[plush grotto]

Maybe a bit more.

[hollow token]

Yeah EVs still ain't there

Their only benefit is that they have less breakable parts, regen braking, and they have instant acceleration. Range, refuel times, the fact it physically degrades by mileage just by using it

[plush grotto]

In Norway they are

[hollow token]

IDC about general consumer habits. I'm just talking about why I wouldn't buy one for myself. A free market means anyone can buy what they want

[short rock]

the fact that something i paid for will by design (intentional or otherwise) degrade in quality or lifespan is never going to sit right with me, and that extends beyond EVs

[hardy pilot]

Also happens on old gas cars engines gets old and less efficient, burn oil or leak fuel (especially with manufacturers using more and more plastic parts (like plastic intakes, oil pans, etc))

[hardy pilot]

Don’t get a new car filled with plastic parts around the engine

[hollow token]

True, which just means it's a compromise between your choice. But EVs degrade quicker

I don't hate EVs, I'm just not an early adopter

[short rock]

yes but replacement parts exist and if you take care of your car, my friend has a s2000 and it still runs, and imo, pretty damn good. try to replace the battery in an EV.

[hardy pilot]

Depends, if you don’t use a “fast charger” your battery’s life will be better tho

[hardy pilot]

That s2000 doesn’t have a fucking all plastic intake not a plastic oil pan nor any engine components made of plastic that shouldn’t be made of plastic

[hollow token]

I mean the benefit of an ev is you have a tenth of the moving parts an ICE has, so the compromise is less parts to replace, but a heftier expense when you do have to

[hardy pilot]

Im not for ev nor against them I don’t give a shit I just don’t want people to say stuff that’s just wrong (on purpose or not)

[hardy pilot]

(I hate plastic parts on engines)

[short rock]

right; i agree. everything obeys the law of "shit in, shit out". but the EV has one point of failure which, by law of chemistry is going to degrade. none of the parts in the s2000 (which are part of the essential drivetrain) are designed to degrade over time. THAT'S my gripe.

[winged spire]

The reason being “I don’t like EVs”

[hollow token]

I gave pretty reasonable points I feel

Technology isn't cultism. Its just whats best

[plush grotto]

Arguments like,
You have to charge it, and it takes forever, and you can only drive x miles, Meanwhile a gas car is 5 sec to refill.......

[winged spire]

Your entire argument was under the assumption that you refuse to install a home charger

A point that doesn’t apply if you… simply… install one

[hollow token]

Not that I refuse. I can't afford nor am I in my forever home

[plush grotto]

Good news, it adds value for the next buyer

[winged spire]

They are not expensive

It also will be free from the cost savings not paying for gasoline

[valid siren]

There are tradeoffs. IMO for a vast majority of people an EV would be just fine. The biggest impediment to widespread adoption is price. You can get a used honda civic for $1500. You don't find EVs for less than five figures.

[plush grotto]

Like $1500-$2000 finished installed.

If you can find an EV for under $10,000 that isn't going to require a battery replacement it's news to me. Keep in mind that a new EV battery is itself thousands of dollars.

[dim agate]

(Significantly more)

[dim agate]

hey i make 15 grand a year

[harsh quartz]

1500$ is not expensive for a car in the fucking slightest

[winged spire]

The average person is going to have their EV charger paid off from gasoline savings before the end of the first year

[valid siren]

Also worth pointing out that you don't need an EV fast charger to charge your car, for daily driving it's usually enough to just leave it plugged in overnight to a 120V outlet. If you can get 240V service, great.

[dim agate]

granted im an intern

[winged spire]

Nice hobby

[plush grotto]

$645 + install cost.

[valid siren]

Not referring to a car, referring to charging infrastructure for an EV.

[valid siren]

Legit if you can get a 240V AC outlet then that'll charge plenty fast.

[winged spire]

A 120v outlet is enough for most people

I like taking long road trips, and I don't think I could do it in my EV without considerable planning. The gas car still just has more ease of use for me

[hollow token]

Correct. Most have better mileage and refuel vastly quicker

Evs are getting better on the mileage front, just not pushing the top performing gas car

[winged spire]

We throughly debunked literally everything you’ve said, you had a whiny hissy fit and peed on the floor saying we have a EV shoved up our ass and you’re still playing the rich person card instead of actually using your brain to make a well thought out response

Ten years ago definitely, but it's doable these days.

ok yeah that's dope, like I said def viable, but for me personally still not worth it. But I will use the EV for my internship commute this summer

[hollow token]

Im trying to reasonably discuss technology. Your ev is just apparently faultless

[dim agate]

the only fault is that i cant drive it while its up my ass

[winged spire]

You clearly either cannot read what is being discussed here, intentionally being dense (maybe?) or unintentionally being dense and I’m not sure what I’d prefer

Can you tell me a compromise then?

[dim agate]

[valid siren]

Yeah pretty much.

[gilded quest]

I mean if you're buying old pieces of shit of course it's gonna be cheap lmao

[winged spire]

I mean sure, in an ideal world you’d buy a car dedicated for each task yknow

[plush grotto]

This is basically 5k

[gilded quest]

I'd love to get an EV but not having a car payment is so nice

[winged spire]

Just like buying a ford over a GM has trade offs on both sides buying an EV vs gas does and same with gas and diesel

[harsh quartz]

wait wat car is this?

[hollow token]

Whats one

[valid siren]

Yes. If you need a car that is less than $10,000 it's probably going to have a combustion engine.

[plush grotto]

DongFeng Box

[winged spire]

Sure, but that’s very low end tbf

The AVERAGE spent on a car in America is north of 50k

[thin fjord]

dont all engines combust

[harsh quartz]

wow that thing is fugly

[winged spire]

Vs EV

That’s what we are discussing

[dim agate]

whats a cheap EV so i can compare it to the price in singapore and complain

[thin fjord]

my fault

[hollow token]

Im still curious what aquatic sees as a compromise to gas vs ev

[winged spire]

No worries

[plush grotto]

2-3k more and you can get a firefly

[gilded quest]

Gas is literally setting money on fire

[plush grotto]

Check mx-30

[harsh quartz]

why do they design evs to be so incredibly ugly

[hot tartan]

don't remind me, gotta drive to my parents home today and fill up my tank before I go

what is it with the ev companys and going "ya know what, no, we dont want people to like our cars"

[plush grotto]

[harsh quartz]

whatever the fuck the BMW was

[plush grotto]

[harsh quartz]

[plush grotto]

Cute

[gilded quest]

It's so derpy

Also it's not an ev it's still got an engine lol

[winged spire]

Straight is still mined up, don’t expect prices to drop anytime soon

[dim agate]

turns out i dont know enough about cars to figure out how much this costs but appears to be about ~85000 usd used

[harsh quartz]

oh well bmw calls it an ev

[plush grotto]

85k???? Wtf, imma export my car to Singapore then, jeeez

[dim agate]

and you can only drive it for 6 years more before you need to pay another 80 grand to renew it for 10 years

[plush grotto]

I paid 19k for mine.

[dim agate]

yes you pay for a temporary certificate of entitlement to drive a car

[harsh quartz]

toyota BZ is fairly cheap for an EV. its like twice the price here as it is in china tho

[dim agate]

driving is only for the upper middle class in singapore

[fossil frost]

what?

[winged spire]

The model 3 starts at like 29k USD in China

About 10k in the us

[dim agate]

yes you read that right

[gilded quest]

Oh wait, it is an EV.
Apparently the range extender is optional, not standard.

I've never seen one configured without the range extender, however

[plush grotto]

Here is a other cheap EV
https://www.autoexpress.co.uk/nio/366758/new-firefly-ev-2025-review-nio-city-car-has-small-price-and-huge-potential

[harsh quartz]

yeah, cause it was an early ev with a range of fuck all

[fossil frost]

isnt the leaf an early ev, with a range of fuck all, and even those early versions are still some of the most bullet proof cars there are?

[harsh quartz]

maybe? idk, i dont see any anymore

[winged spire]

PLENTY of good used EVs for <15k

[plush grotto]

Yeah, leaf is the first mainstream EV

[gilded quest]

I thought it was exactly like the Chevy volt with standard range extender

Which I would just call plugin hybrid

Idk why they would do an optional extender. Perhaps there's certain regions where they benefitted from it

[fossil frost]

one of the first GOOD EVs, and is still one of the cheaper good EVs too

[plush grotto]

Still a good bunch of 2010-2012 Leafs driving around

[winged spire]

Good is a stretch lol

[harsh quartz]

i dont see them, i only see teslas now. and some rivians, thats about it

[winged spire]

First couple generations of leaf were not great

Rivian my beloved

So expensive tho ):

[harsh quartz]

we have so many teslas and rivians here, cause of the supercharger

[harsh quartz]

R3 is supposed to be a good price, so well see if they can deliver on that

[plush grotto]

Norway is like 40% Tesla at this point

[fossil frost]

every car of every model doesnt get recalled every few weeks, so, better than some of the competition

[gilded quest]

Teslas everywhere, Rivians getting more common, decent mix of Kia/Hyundai

[harsh quartz]

we also have a lot of toyota plug ins with a couple EVs, like i see some venzas driving around

but like 80% of EVs i see ar eteslas

I've seen a fisker near my office

[fossil frost]

Jaecoo are quite popular in the UK, because they do EVs that are designed by the same designer that does the landrover (not that that is a good thing, but people in the uk, who drive exclusively on roads... for some reason, like to drive cars designed for driving around a farm)

in fact.. Jaecoo are commonly referred to as a "temu landrover"

[hollow token]

I've seen a healthy mixture of Ford, gmc, and Chevy ev trucks

Tesla has shit design and quality

[hot tartan]

dude they are crazy vehicles

[fossil frost]

design, no, quality yes

[winged spire]

Rapidly improving

[harsh quartz]

their quality has gone up a lot, especially while others are going down

[winged spire]

It’s absolutely equal quality to comparable prices

[harsh quartz]

except the cybertruck

fuck that abmination

[winged spire]

These aren’t super high end cars, model 3 starts at like 35k

[fossil frost]

they sold all of those to themselves though, so, "they sold well"

[winged spire]

Yeah spaceX has like 200 lol

[hollow token]

I like buttons and knobs in my cars. Tesla having one big iPad in the middle is a big no

[harsh quartz]

no, unironically i see quite a few different ones around here, and i know theyre different cause they all have stupid wraps and paintjobs to try and make them look better (it doesnt work)

[plush grotto]

Norways top 10 for last year.

The new model Y is an absolutely fantastic car

🚨#BREAKING: USPS has announced that they may Soon Allow People To Ship Handguns Through The Mail For The First Time In Nearly 100 Years

X · May 7, 2026, 7:18 PM

Shocked this was banned? You can fly on an airline with your guns but not through USPS?

[drowsy canyon]

https://tenor.com/view/im-come-you-gif-18197944984816523843

imbed fail

[harsh quartz]

There’s extreme limitations on flying with a handgun, and why would you be able to ship a gun when it could easily be intercepted?

[winged spire]

I mean it just goes with the normal cargo once locked up

Normal tsa lock

I wonder if there was some event that caused the ban directly

Other shipping companies allow guns I think?

Some USPS employee in 1930 stole a gun and went on a rampage or smth

[harsh quartz]

weirdly unrelated to going postal

but also why the fuck would you want to ship your handgun

[winged spire]

So you don’t have to deal with driving it through different states with different laws

And to buy one in the first place

[dim agate]

might just have a shit load of handguns that you cba to deal with

[fossil frost]

tbh, the most common, and simplest way of shipping any contraband item, is to just put it in the regular post, in any country, hardly any of it ever ends up being checked

[winged spire]

Yep 😛

[fossil frost]

i ordered a £2400 set of bicycle wheels from china, before the new laws in the uk about the remote party having to collect vat and duty... i bought them for.. £600, they sent them regular recorded delivery via royal mail... labelled as "prototype hardware"... if they opened them, and saw it was production bike wheels.. it would have had a 20% duty due, and then 20% vat.. and some other tax on top of all that too... still would have only come up to £1200, for the £2400 wheels.. but... customs never checked.. i got them for £600

friend of mine ordered 10 sets, sold them on ebay for £1200 a set... nothing got pulled up.. he then ordered 1 set of handle bars for himself.. £30... and then got charged £100 in fees and duties and taxes on top of those £30 bars... but nothing for the 6 grand worth of wheels

btw. on EVs.. has anyone else found their forward collision warning/emergency system... to be a fucking psycopath?

[cerulean canopy]

this doesent have to do with car being electric at all

[fossil frost]

i can be driving head on into traffic... its absolutely fine with that... but... going round a corner, with a car coming the other way, safely on its own side of the road... it has a fucking panic attack and flips out at me for trying to kill everyone

[winged spire]

I have mine set to early alert

The emergency braking has gone off once because someone was zipping along in a scooter and made a sharp turn right before the street

I woulda braked too if I saw it in time

Car saw it though …. Everything went flying 😭😂

[fossil frost]

it doesnt take the piss when it puts the brakes on does it? 😁 if mine puts the brakes on for me.. they are on-on

[winged spire]

Yeah FAST stop

[harsh quartz]

is it breaks or regen breaks?

[winged spire]

For emergency it’s the actual brakes

[hollow token]

My car is too old for proximity alerts. Its only 2016 😮‍💨

[winged spire]

And it absolutely slams them on

I assume it handles the ABS and stuff? But

[fossil frost]

actual brakes.. and the auto emergency brakes are binary... on or not on

[winged spire]

That’s lame

I’ve got off, late, medium, early

Mines on early, freaks my passengers when it when it makes the warning alert. 😂

[fossil frost]

ohh, the settings are all there for that.. but if it slams on for me.. it doesnt ease the brakes on... it either locks them fully on.. or doesnt bother at all

[winged spire]

Yeah

If it gets to the point of needing to brake it’s usually urgent tbh

[fossil frost]

its slammed on for me twice, once for the same reason as you, somebody cut across the front of me.. and the other time was when i was reversing in a carpark, and some kid just ran behind me going to their parents car.. and the car decided that it didnt want to run over a child

How the fuck do you clamp down a cylinder producing 17,000,000lbs of thrust

And producing a 15.0 earthquake or whatever

[fossil frost]

millions of newtons of force pushing up.. and what is effectively, a metal bar saying "no"

It ain’t much

Those paddles kinda push into the side of the booster

ok, several small metal bars, instead of 1 big metal bar

i expect they work like the emergency brakes on an elevator? where the harder the rocket tries to push up, the harder they clamp? (elevator emergency brakes clamp harder the more it tries to push down)

Not a bad start if you don't wanna dive to deep into the hobby

Unreallted but power supplies feel so stressful to pick lol

yep. i am borowing it from a friend to transfer files from a SSD to a diffrent SSD

i cant se any screw holes and i dont need one to open it cause my friend opened whit out one

(any other pc thats mine i usualy brute force and rip into peaces ngl but this is his so cant do that method)

[chilly egret]

So slide the case off? If your friend did something janky, ask them how to open it.... Frankly, its sounding like a $20 enclosure would be safer.

the screw was removed. but like the cover is on solid some how

Best ram hertz for 128gb ddr5

[oak pier]

whatever the CPU supports

[void kite]

9950x3d

[oak pier]

that doesn't fit in an STR5 mobo

[void kite]

Bro what

[oak pier]

The motherboard i linked is for threadrippers, not consumer CPUs

[hardy pilot]

It’s a threadripper board

[void kite]

Oh ok

[oak pier]

go look up threadripper prices

[void kite]

What is the best threadripper

[oak pier]

9995wx

also i lied, Pro WS WRX90E-SAGE SE is the best board rn

that supports the full 8 channels of ddr5

[void kite]

So if I took the rtx pro 6000,9995wx,that mobo,128gb ddr5 with the best hertz rating,6tb m.2 pcie 5.0 nvme ssd.

[hollow token]

You want to remove the metal framing for fans?

[oak pier]

the frame is for mounting fans to

[primal cairn]

The bottom and top can both be removed

For installation

[hollow token]

Its also a byproduct for structural support

[primal cairn]

So it can't be removed, I thought the seams were well hidden, i guess it's literally the entire case itself

Damn it, now I have to remove the rad from the front

[arctic pollen]

you don't shower every day?

[keen cedar]

Normally I do at night

Morning showers are peak though

[arctic pollen]

Yeah I shower in the morning

[keen cedar]

I have no kids so I don't have that issue

absolutely beautiful

[crystal flare]

Honest question: at what point is all the outrage around optimization just people being mad they can't run modern games on out of date hardware like a GTX 770?

[winged spire]

The feds declassified a bunch of UFO sightings 😂 even on the Apollo missions

[hollow token]

I mean its true to be upset about it. With how quick the ceiling of development is rising, developers are becoming reckless with how they're spending resources

[rough socket]

Of it was a one slab piece of wood carved it would be even better

[winged spire]

Yes and it would also be $40,000

[rough socket]

Lol yeah
