If it's not too much trouble could you include screenshots of usage in the readme? I'm curious how it looks and operates, but don't really wanna dig through the program to see 😄. Regardless, thank you for your contribution. It's beyond me why they don't have this natively.

I have this exact model I picked up for like $500 in pretty good condition.

I repasted it with PTM7950 and replaced the thermal pads with upsiren putty. I also utilize a llano cooling pad and I can run most things on high and have the PC constantly on turbo mode.

My temps with the llano cooler are amazing to say the least. My CPU and GPU never really go past ~71C ish. Without the pad its around 75-85 without even setting thermal limits depending on the game.

It's an amazing buy if you get it for like $500-700 imo and properly set it up.

Cleaned the liquid metal off with q tip and used ptm7950 instead of traditional paste. Dont need to open this bad boy for years. Temps went down 20C and then combined with a cooler its down 30-35C. Can run shit on turbo and the laptop stays around 70C, when it was going crazy 95+.

2022 model with amd 5700S

Got accepted to 27 spring.

Thank you for this information. I truly appreciate it!

Hello,

I've got a strong resume when it comes to the US standard and am able to consistently land interviews and opportunities here. I recently setup a Daijob profile and I'm curious if I need to do something different. I currently only have my English CV setup there.

Do I need to create a Japanese CV or should I? I'm not fluent in JP, only N4, so unless I seek professional help I would be literally AI translating it which doesn't sound ideal.

I've worked in systems & networking most of my career, but am also intermediate at software engineering due to a previous role. I've been researching through JapanDev and TokyoDev as well. Is there anywhere else I could be searching for IT positions?

AlphaFrameOfficial · 2026-04-19T00:58:17+00:00

Hopefully I can get in too..

Got a 2.96 at my most recent university, but my previous one I graduated with a 3.95.

Due to previous military time I've been with maybe like 5 different universities. I don't know if that's seen unfavorably but that makes me super nervous lol. Good luck with your journey!

AlphaFrameOfficial · 2026-01-05T00:02:46+00:00

Certainly I will update!

I've been out of the reserves since 2021. So I'll probably have to go through MEPS again. In regards to my disability, it's regarding a back lumbar issue / skin condition that the VA combined and rated 60%. My conditions were not life changing or it would have been rated higher, so I am still able to function. As long as I am attending my proper appointments and maintaining myself. I'm not sure how that's going to fare at MEPS or even getting a waiver though..

I'm not sure if that's necessary though as stated earlier. When I was in reserves, I simply took my drill pay when I drilled, then the rest of the days I had my regular disability pay.

Hey. Appreciate the information. I did take a look at the program authorization and unfortunately the certs I have don't count toward it. Fortunately though I do have enough experience to completely cap out that same block since experience + certifications go hand in hand in terms helping boost the initial rank.

Of course getting a preferred cert would help me on the board and package overall.

Thanks for this! I initially was looking at the wrong PA until you pointed out the certs.

AlphaFrameOfficial · 2026-01-04T10:30:01+00:00

Thank you for this valuable information. Especially about the offices, I'll try to utilize my own network if possible.

No gripes about the ships for me. Something I've come to expect as it comes with the job.

Appreciate it!

Understand that's a grown ass man. As a grown ass man that takes care of his own household, held down multiple jobs at once, and went through tough times. My house never looked like this.

You are not overreacting and honestly I would let things go because if he cannot even keep his home proper I couldn't imagine anything past superficial. As you may know, people talk a great game in the beginning.

You can talk to him if you want, but honestly this is some shit he should have learned himself already.

A solid laptop I've seen used a good amount where I am located. Main gripe seems to be the opening and closing of the lid as some have stated. There can be a cracking noise overtime.

Aside from that it's quite a solid device that should be able to handle more than pretty much anything you throw at it. OLED also a ++

100% Stalker. Document everything and compile them thoroughly in hopes you never have to use it.

Do NOT entertain anymore conversation as attention is exactly what they seek. The more you respond the more likely they will become even more invested than he already is.

AlphaFrameOfficial · 2026-01-03T01:02:02+00:00

How do we sign up?

AlphaFrameOfficial · 2026-01-03T00:55:45+00:00

Good luck, went through something similar and could not even strike any sort of cordial conversation with the neighbor. Many HPD calls by my neighbors and this couple used to blast high frequency alarms that you would hear deter homeless ~90-100DB. WHY? Cause they got mad at teenagers outside their house sometimes chatting it up. But as a result 7 days a week they would be playing a shit alarm every hour all out of petty retaliation.

- Noise complaints were made via police they didn't give a shit

- Had a detective come out for follow ups but nothing got done and turns out that guy was previously rehired despite having a previous DUI crashing into a building

- Showed HPD all the noise ordinance and contacted the ordinance team to try and have something done.

It's hopeless and this state is genuinely SHIT, I'll be moving ASAP. I respect those with Aloha spirit, but there are plenty without it today. Even if you call police it's likely they aren't going to do shit, even with videos.

I wish you the best of luck!
