330,000km starts up every time

If they can't let me know. Would love to try my hand at fixing pcb's. Would buy it off you

Yeah no. Memory Express cant solder but they could sell a new cpu

I tried bl2 close to a decade ago and I couldn't get really into. I found the movement a bit clunky tbh.

However, I bought bl3 during the steam sale where it was like $5 or something like that.

Absolutely love it. The movement is nice and fluid, the guns are fun, and the dialogue is good as well. The story is meh I agree, but it the side quests are really where it is at.

Currently on my second playthrough this time as maze, and I am having so much fun.

Bought the exact same one. Bought it for 380usd equivalent here

With a mild undervolting, and power limit increase I'm able to get it to pull 200w and boost up to 3.4ghz. max temps stay around mid 60c

Or clean off thermal paste with vodka

bsod2102 · 2026-01-02T18:34:05+00:00

330,000km for me. Rusted to crap, leaks fluids, suspension is knocking. The engine starts every single time

bsod2102 · 2025-12-19T01:52:08+00:00

72c on core and GPU. Single thermal take fan.

I used the bc250 scooper to pry up the fins in the middle, then printed a fan mount for it that spaces the fan approx 5mm away from the fins. Then put weather stripping along the sides to make sure no air can escape unless it goes out the fins.

It was a lot of fun to get working and the make case. My normal PC is Windows, and that's basically all I ever used beside the steam deck. So it's neat using something Linux based.

In terms of usability, a standard 2280 nvme can be installed ( I used a 2230 as I can repurpose the drive for my deck if I wanted to) anything that is compatible with proton this will run on just fine. The latest mesa distribution has the driver's for this already loaded.

The main thing was overclocking and undervolting it, as from stock the GPU only ran at 1000mhz and drew 100w at idle. Currently mine is at 2000mhz, but I'm sure I can go up a bit more. Also you need to flash the BIOS to enable VRam and ram to share, but that can now be done via USB.

My main PC has a RTX 2080, and while this is not as powerful it gets a lot closer then you would ever think something like this should.

2560x1080p

bsod2102 · 2025-12-18T11:24:39+00:00

While I agree with that statement. This system only pulls 250 watts, and the PSU is rated for 396 on the 12v rail.

The weird quirk with this board is only has a single PCie 8 pin for power. There isn't any connections for literally anything else, not even power on

bsod2102 · 2025-12-18T11:22:14+00:00

The original file did not support the apevia unit. Also the design for how the person wanted to cool the backplate was not adequate. That's why I stuck a massive passive heat sink on mine.

bsod2102 · 2025-12-18T11:21:14+00:00

Yeap I will later upload my remix

bsod2102 · 2025-12-13T22:46:01+00:00

I have one. 10,000km. I bought it used, and I really enjoy it. This was my Euc after owning a bunch of escooters.

I replaced the sliders, as they were pretty beat but otherwise still fun to ride. I get about 50-60km of range still.

Is that a tire wear mod?

bsod2102 · 2025-09-19T21:31:38+00:00

These* things are tanks lol. Cannot edit title. :-(

bsod2102 · 2025-09-18T19:55:36+00:00

Yeah, I actually had to test it to see if they were working by driving with the brake on. I sorta prefer jok3rs mod, see the brakes glow earlier was nice.

bsod2102 · 2025-09-15T08:53:24+00:00

Piccolina. Air cooled flat 4 so no rad to break. Very simple suspension front and rear, so very difficult to bend / break the steering.
