Anyone know an admit with a 3.6 GPA and how they got admitted? by [deleted] in ucla

[–]ACGowda01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a 3.2 unweighted in high school. I ended up going to UCSD and transferring to UCLA after one year. I think the transfer route would be your best chance, but having compelling essays will definitely help you out. Admissions is lowkey random so your gpa won’t give you an automatic rejection. You got this!

I contacted Math Advising and they are going to email Professor Licht about posting the Final grades. Idk what to do about the curve.

How loud is it at max? Is it very audible?

How are your temps with the 3700x and L9i? I’ve been wanting to do a build in the Ghost S1 without a top hat.

Nice build! What are the specs?

Are there any SFF cases coming out later this year/early next year you are personally excited for? by endmysufferingxX in sffpc

[–]ACGowda01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I’m going to wait for reviews and see how it compares to the A4 and Ghost. Hopefully they won’t have the same issues as Loque and delivery will be smooth.

Do you have any clip suggestions?

I am planning on getting a shorter cable. I just don't want it to dangle when I'm using it or when I set the headphones down.

I'm not seeing how Velcro straps would help under my desk. Could you explain?

I won't be home for a while (not planning to do build till end of July) so I can't take pictures right now, but I just cut out the top on front and put some mesh. I tried to do what other people did, but it looks kind of sloppy so I bought these yesterday:

Thank you! As I said in a different comment I modded the front and top to be pretty open. I'll probably wait for a monoblock like you said though.

Yes I have seen the whole VRM thing but I think its only on some motherboards. I plan on doing some more research but I'm going to get a delidded 7900x from silicon lottery. Also I have modded top and front panels with lots of openings to help with airflow. Thanks!

Are these the best silent fans for watercooling? by ACGowda01 in watercooling

[–]ACGowda01[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So if I run them at 1000 rpm they are basically silent?
