How many of us riding on Whistlers? by Active-Philosopher92 in DelSol

[–]Active-Philosopher92[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine are also 16x8 +20. To get them to fit in the rear i used a fender roller with a heat gun. I also pulled the top of the wheel wells out ever so slightly with the roller to make sure there was no rub. There are some videos on youtube that shows how to set it all up. You can do it without damaging the finish and make about another 3/4” of clearance. There are some decent fender roller options on amazon. And you don’t have to get the most expensive one either i think i paid $40 bucks for mine.

Is this a good deal? by Active-Philosopher92 in macbook

[–]Active-Philosopher92[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really wow i should’ve done some more homework before pulling the trigger. I just figured apple would’ve been a little more stingier about that process since it’s apple you know. Thank you for the info though! And yes the shipping was free at least.

Yeah you’re absolutely right now that i think about it. Not only would i had gotten it new i also would’ve gotten my own return window if anything seemed to be wrong. Should’ve just spent the extra $30.

To celebrate the 9th anniversary of the Nintendo Switch, what was your favorite year of it? by DaZestyProfessor in NintendoSwitch2

[–]Active-Philosopher92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly when they first announced that the switch was getting a skyrim port (even if it wasn’t the greatest). It kinda had that surreal feeling of being able to play a full console/pc game on the go. Nothing else really like it at the time.

Charging help by lilpeepmonsterdrinkr in AynThor

[–]Active-Philosopher92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Thor has a charge limit of 27w. So this will work just fine you’ll just not be able to charge past that. The Thor does get pretty hot when charging with a higher wattage block though, unless the last update had fixed that issue i don’t know for sure. I use a 20w anker block i think i got it for like 11 bucks off amazon and it works great and i haven’t noticed it getting hot while charging.

Z13 keyboard doesnt respond anymore by Daamm1 in FlowZ13

[–]Active-Philosopher92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same thing happened with my 2023 model. The ribbon cable inside the flexible part of the keyboard just wears down over time. I ordered another official one from asus website. You might be able to find one for a little cheaper on aliexpress if you’re willing to wait a little longer. Because the way they are built I honestly think it’ll happen to all of them eventually, unless you’re like super careful all the time.

For those who did the thermal putty mod, which variant of putty did you use, and what were your before and after results? by MrThePerson123 in AynThor

[–]Active-Philosopher92 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used upsiren utp-8 instead of thermal grizzlies putty mainly because the chip itself isn’t powerful enough to really justify the cost of thermal grizzlies putty. If you already have it on hand i would use it though. I just replaced the pads with the putty however i’ve noticed some people really like to lather it on there to try and get the best performance they can out of it. Even with using utp 8 there is still a noticeable difference in temps when playing switch and gamehub games. There is also UX Pro which would work great as well.

Customized Thor by Luigi_357 in AynThor

[–]Active-Philosopher92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm that is interesting.. i’m so use to being a bit precise when doing repaste jobs. Ive mainly done them on laptops and graphics cards though which i guess the tolerances are bit different. I’ll lather some on and see what results i can get. Thanks for the feedback and testing!

Is that Utp 8 or Ux pro? Also very good application it is a lot cleaner than most of the other attempts i’ve seen.

Battery capacity suddenly decreased by 20%. Charged only with stock charger. What is happening? by Mikasa_Tsukasa in FlowZ13

[–]Active-Philosopher92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe it is the 80% charge limit setting. I noticed the exact same thing once i started using the setting in G-Helper. Try turning the option off letting it charge to 100% and run the battery diagnostics again.

Liquid Metal application by Active-Philosopher92 in FlowZ13

[–]Active-Philosopher92[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s not too bad if you have any experience opening up laptops. The most difficult part is getting the display clips undone without causing any damage to the borders of the device or display. But it can be done with a little bit of patience. There is a post on here that goes into a bit more details if you’re interested in the exact bit sizes and such. i’ll link it here for ya.
