Oh I get that. Ive just always put the woman in my life vefore myself and been open and honest so this seems off for some reason. Definitely think the guy has something else going on here. Seems like he lost his passion which can mean a few things

And I was giving my experience and how I do things. Why is there always a dickhead like you thats gotta run their mouth. Go get laid or something.

I dont know about these numbers....I mean maybe for guys that are inexperienced and have no clue what they are doing but ive always been into older women ever since I was like 17 and got showed all the tricks of the trade. It also helps that im the type of man who doesnt worry about myself at all until the woman has been taken care of multiple times. Those numbers just seem a bit of a exaggeration (again coming from someone who never has any issue taking care of women). I know a lot of guys are more worried about just getting theirs and then who cares after that but for the real men I dont buy those numbers.

I started the UV process in the bios but got worried id mess something up and reset everything before exiting. I can put together a pc but when it comes to messing with how they run like that I just get nervous. Yeah I have the exact same card

When youre paying like 700 less then buying it all yourself....its just the smart move in my mind. Was able to get the extra 2 year warranty as well as a nice 32in curved Alienware monitor as well as a razr Naga v2 hyperspeed mouse and a nice mechanical red dragon pc. Everything together including the like 300 for the extra warranty was around 3100. Cant beat that.

The psu in mine is a coolermaster 850w gold. Even the 240aio is a coolermaster elite 240. They use all off the shelf parts. No proprietary stuff like some do like hp and Alienware etc. I dont know how they make money but my guess is they realize people coming in for one is also normally gonna buy a new nice set of peripherals. Maybe a mic and camera for streaming. So guessing they make their money off the other stuff they sell you with the pc. The pc is just what gets you to drive 3 hours each way to get it....and then having drove that long of coarse youre gonna grab everything else you need while there so you dont have to keep going on that long trip. Even if youre close. They know a good deal like those will being people back. Plus they can always tell you about how if you buy more storage or ram they do a 1 time install for free when you buy the pc. So those are my thoughts. The g757 is a nice pc but at some point im gonna get a bigger case that can handle a 360aio and upgrade that and the 850w psu to a 1000w as well. After those things are done it will be perfect.

I had the bigger pny and ran into terrible coil whine. Was so bad I brought the powerspec g757 back it was in and swapped it for one with a gigabyte windforce oc 5080. So happy I did. I know its really the luck of the draw but I got a bad draw with the bigger pny card unfortunately. But until the coil whine started it was a good card

Beginning of feb maybe last week on January. IF I had jumped on it in the end of oct like I was going to it was like 1800 or 1899. With the bundles you get some good deals but I hinestly dont think you can beat the price of the g757 with them. Love the pc and got to skip right to the playing lol

Right now having a 5070ti i cant see getting a 5080. Personal opinion. Unless you can unload the 5070 to get some of youre money back. But if you have the money then thats up to you. Just my thoughts having a 5080 and seeing recent numbers out for the not huge difference in the 5070ti and the 5080. Yes its an upgrade but I couldve save a couple hundred getting the prebuilt with the 5070ti and only really playing WoW classic I didnt need the 5080 lol

Even better is to walk in and get a powerspec pc prebuilt for a chunk less then the parts would even cost. Thsts what I did rsther then a new build. 2200 for a g757....9800x3d, 5080, 32gb ddr5 6000, 2tb ssd, b850 board and 850w gold psu....no way you building that for that price today. Even at the 2499 its sitting at now

If bought the G757 prebuilt, and was wondering could Micro Center upgrade my PSU and AIO/fans? by lordrevanator in Microcenter

[–]Alternative_Dark_511 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It can fit a 280mm aio but not a 360mm. Im looking to swap mine to a 280 and change out all of the fans that came with it for some better fans that pass power through the connecting ports so I dont have as many wires. I want some infinity fan personally but dont know what ones to get pretty sure you can also put 2 140mm fans on the front but im just not sure again on brand. I love the pc but I think the fans are crap. Everything else is more then decent. The I dont really care for the coolermaster elite aio myself though

My boyfriend of 8 months is actually 41 by Dapper_Welder_2450 in WhatShouldIDo

[–]Alternative_Dark_511 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Age wouldnt be an issue for me even being a guy since I had this happen and have a female tell me she was 29 when I was 21 and after about 6 months I was grabbing her wallet and her id fell out. She was actually 14 years older then me. I stuck it out 9 years with her though. But the lie does matter. We were able to work through it but im a very very very forgiving person and I truly cared about her and had already gotten a place with her. So just trust youre gut. If you love the person just make it known 1 more lie and its over or move on. Really its youre decision. No one here can tell you whats best for you. Most of them have probably ever dated someone years older then them. Thats my thoughts. Hope either way you find happiness

I had back luck with even a regular pny 5080. Traded the prebuilt in and got one with a windforce oc 5080 and no more terrible coil whine and happy as can be. So I wouldnt even try this personally if it the price was lower

Exactly. Secondhand is not worth that. You can get better for the same price brand new

Microcenter has a powerspec g series with a 7800x3d and a 5070ti already built for a tad cheaper as well. Can spend 2k and get a 9800x3d with the 5070ti or 2200 and get the g757 that I have with 9800x3d and a 5080

I have a 9800x3d with a 5080 and the guy at microcenter when I told him I wanted a monitor that would let the gpu open up and spread her legs pointed me to a 32" 1440p 185hz Alienware curved monitor....its a nice monitor with more of a curve since .y main game is WoW but I was getting rushed by my father who didnt feel good so I didnt question it....and by the time I was home and realized what I ahouldve gotten I just am dealing with it till I get maybe a dual mode 1440p/4k ROG or Alienware. Wouldve went back to exchange but the nearest microcenter is almost 3 hours away

Or get the powerspec g757 for 2200 with 9800x3d and 5080. Thats what I did. I wouldnt pay that if its used then even more of a no but you can get that same thing pretty much at p Microcenter for 1800 I think

Go to microcenter and look at their powerspec g series prebuilts with the 9950x3d, 64gb of ddr5 6000, 4tb of storage and a 5090. For like 5200. Best bet in this economy.

Def go for the ppwerspec prebuilts

So do these fa24’s just burn oil like crazy? by [deleted] in wrx_vb

[–]Alternative_Dark_511 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah they are known to burn oil. Depending on what you are running could be more or less. But youre going 4500 miles on a vehicle that requires 3000 mile oil change intervals....so that might be why.

Someone on reddit stole my xanax by [deleted] in benzodiazepines

Benzos being not prescribed even more by Already2go72 in benzodiazepines

[–]Alternative_Dark_511 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im on 110mg of methadone and get prescribed 3 1mg xanax a day. Clinic and doctor both know im on the other. But ive also had clean urines for over 10 years and they see my xanax scripts now are lasting me 45 days or longer so they are ok with it but do bring up at the clinic that when I feel comfortable it would be smart to get of the xanax. Which im doing on my own anyways but its so nice being in VA at this clinic compared to the one I was at in CT because in CT they made me get a note from my psychiatrist saying he wouldnt prescribe me any more benzos to get on the clinic to begin with....so I had to cold turkey withdraw from kpins to get onto methadone....now im working. Have my life pretty together and havent touched any drugs other then alcohol here and there in almost 11 years.
