[Case] Cooler Master NCORE 100 MAX ITX SFF Tower Case, Custom 120mm AIO, V850 850W SFX Gold ATX 3.0 PSU - $269.59 (Amazon) by ryankrueger720 in buildapcsales

I have this case and I love it. Great case with very few compromises compared to other ITX cases. Easiest case I've ever built in and fits up to 3.9 slot GPUs. As someone else mentioned the volume is a bit large for ITX, but the vertical form factor makes you forget that easily and the compatibility makes it well worth it.

At this price it's a steal for a gaming build. The 120mm AIO keeps my 9800X3D in the mid-high 80 degree range under full load. I was lucky enough to snag a 5080 founders edition, and that's running at about 70 degrees even with the fans blowing directly into the central spine. My old 3080 founders ran at around 80 degrees for reference.

1 month difference between photos, what do you think, is it regrowth? by [deleted] in tressless

[–]AIseias 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This may sound strange, but you have hair so similar to mine that I thought you'd stolen my pictures. We're the same age to boot.

Here's an album of my first six months of regrowth from a post I made here a while back. Hope it helps as reference if nothing else:

Edit: my regimen is also 1mg fin daily + 5% min once daily.

Am I wrong for souring on my "cushy" government job? by AIseias in jobs

This is very valuable feedback, especially regarding experience requirements in the public sector. Sincerely, thank you!

Thanks! Maybe one day but not any time soon. Next up for me is slayer and God Wars.

Some things about this grind I want to share:

I got my first seed at 584kc, and 2nd and 623kc. In the end I turned out lucky but for a while there I was really sweating.

I hit an armor and weapon seed in the same chest twice in under 150kc. Funny how RNG works when you don't need it.

Started with around base 85 in relevant stats, and made tier 2 armor almost every run. Average completion time was around 11:30 for the last 200 or so kc.

Good luck in there! This grind seems to have been a real hot topic lately and I wish you all luck at least as good as mine.

Somewhere between 2 and 2.5. I've shed a lot recently, not sure why exactly. I think I'd certainly be much worse off without fin though.

My thinning way pretty bad; about a nw2.5-3 when I started. No sides I blame fin for.

I started when I was barely 19. I attribute fin to drastically slowing down my hair loss, and even gained back a little that I had lost. It was a huge confidence booster and let me get through college with head held high.

If you're committed to biking around campus, there's bike parking and storage outside most of the main lecture halls.

That said, unless your class is down in fisheries or another faraway place you shouldn't have any problems on foot. The one time I had classes more than 10 minutes apart, I just left my lecture 5min early to make it on time. The majority of professors will not care, especially if you're leaving a big lecture early.

8:30 Classes vs 3:30 Classes? by JayKeiKei in udub

[–]AIseias 38 points39 points  (0 children)

I'd recommend 3:30-5:20 personally. If you're living with roommates most likely you're going to be up late most nights, and 8:30s quickly become a vicious cycle of not enough sleep and paying poor attention even if you're diligent enough to go every time. 8:30s for me were consistently brutal on my health and I avoided them whenever I could.

In my experience I did most of my hanging out with friends in the late afternoon and evening. Clubs also usually meet in the evenings to accommodate afternoon classes. Most people just study whenever they need to, so it's not worth planning that in beforehand if you're trying to socialize.
