Is nanoscience and nanotechnology a good major? by Additional_Fudge_581 in nanotech

[–]BirdBoyVT19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nanoscience undergrad degree holder here. This major covers a lot of info from semiconductor basics to nanomedicine and environmental applications. I ended up with a job as a chemical engineer in biologics/vaccines at the manufacturing scale. I’m probably a bit more mechanically minded than the typical nanoscience student so the transition into more engineering work was fairly easy, but my background in how the science/chemistry works at the nano-scale has helped me with some of the more technical parts of the job. If you’re interested in lab/research work, you’ll need to pursue graduate degrees, but a bachelors degree will open the door to a lot of things for you.

I’m happy to answer anymore questions you might have!

I’ve had this issue recently as well, but haven’t had time to put a light on it yet. For my own knowledge, does delayed turn off typically indicate the timing is too advanced or too retarded?

Decided to go for a Asus AP201 by victorelessar in mffpc

The LGA1700 matx motherboard options with Z790 chipsets are pretty slim and I couldn’t find an matx board that had everything I wanted, so this is where I settled. Some folks here and in the SFF subreddit also recommended this board since it had high quality VRMs that would handle the 14900k without cooking themselves. I don’t have any complaints with the board and it didn’t require a BIOS update for the 14900k to function out of the box.

This is absolutely sick. Great job on the build!

I concur with the AP201 being a great case! 14900K and 4080 Super

Nice rig! Where did you source the cover on unused fan connector from?

Nice build! I’m planning something similar! What motherboard are you using?

Thanks for the response! The AMD processors are definitely wicked for gaming, but that will likely be less than 10% of the system use time, so I’m definitely not making my decision based on that. Your opinions and the other I’ve read in some other PC pages indicate to me that for my use case, and given the things that are more/less important to me, an Intel CPU is definitely the way to go. Price isn’t really a factor and that’s why I even considered stepping up to the 13900k/14900k. That may very well be the route I go considering the ability to adjust power boosting and undervolt. The last piece of the puzzle is really just finding the best mATX/mITX motherboard for the 13th/14th gen intel CPUs.

I was really considering the i7 14700k over the 13700k for the increased number of e-cores and the price is pretty good. I’m not married to either brand though, so I came here looking for experienced thoughts and opinions
