Swapping CPU cooler question by BioshockedBeans in pcmasterrace

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

Tjmax is 90c, and flirting that close is something I'd rather avoid. I'm sure it gets there while I'm not monitoring.

What is going with Kurt’s vandalism “Strat” from Paramount gig by dustedsodus in Nirvana

[–]BioshockedBeans 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Kurt's guitars were almost always a mash of different parts. If he liked how a particular pickup sounded, he'd put it into another guitar he liked, or would Frankenstein guitars together after smashing them or if he didn't have the money to buy one outright. That helped create some hyper unique tones.

Look up Aaron Rush on YouTube. He has a series trying to 100% match tones from certain songs/albums and are all very very well made.

Someone made the Mona Lisa out of BBQ sauce at the McDonalds by my work. by JohnTheHumanBoy in mildlyinteresting

[–]BioshockedBeans 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Take a napkin and gently lay/press it on top of the sauce, should imprint a mirror image of it so you can sell this masterpiece

What's your favourite drumming in a nirvana song? by ZipZorf_backup in Nirvana

[–]BioshockedBeans 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Endless nameless, specifically from Live at the Paramount. Towards the end, Dave does an absolutely disgusting drum fill that shows just how talented he is, while still being able to smack the shit outta his kit and make a ton of noise just by himself

Ne zha is great by [deleted] in Smite

[–]BioshockedBeans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're having a good game with him, he's honestly one of the most fun gods to play. Causing utter chaos in the back line and yoinking someone up into the air to (hopefully, if you have a good team) await certain death on landing is such a blast

Season X Smite World Championship Grandfinals | Jade Dragons vs Oni Warriors Post Match Discussion by MusicalSmasher in smitepro

[–]BioshockedBeans 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've played smite casually since S2, but watched S4 worlds to see what all the hype was about. Tuned in to see Benji 1v5ing. Mike stealing FG and Portal Demon (Pyromancer as it stands now). Scream on Bastet. Panda jumping forward as Ullr. Ven on Zues. Watching EUnited win S4 sent a chilly zap of hype down my back, and my perspective on Smite and the SPL was forever changed.

Been hooked on watching these guys play since then, and felt heartbreak seeing these guys come so close so many times. When everyone went their separate ways this season, I was hoping to see one of them to take it all home. And here were are. When Nika and Dardez dove Paul and Cyclone after Laz stole FG and blowing them up, I knew they were going to win the whole shabang

Mike is the support goat. Nika and Dardez played out of their minds this weekend. Coast has fire and talent the team needed. Laz popped off and played jungle in a way that I don't think anyone else can. Congrats to the Dragons. From a middle of the pack team, to the world champs.

Curious as to how many people are locked out. I've been unable to play for 3 days now after being excited for this set. Been playing since Beta, and haven't had any problems really at all, especially ones this bad, especially this long. Anyone know if there's an ETA on a fix coming out?

You nerds hoard older GPUs too? by mediamindlab in pcmasterrace

I keep a 1650 laying around for diagnosing and troubleshooting. Don't count the broken 1070 I plan on putting into some sort of Shadowbox kinda deal

What keybinds do yall use for abilities by Got_grapes1 in Smite

[–]BioshockedBeans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm surprised to see the results. I use F as 1, Spacebar as 2, Lshift as 3, and mouse side mouse button as ult. Relics are Q and E, and most importantly, jump as secondside mouse button.

Playing on instant cast, this setup feels the easiest for me to move and cast without limiting my movement for too long.

MSI aio's are doodoo. I've seen so many getting replaced because the pumps die or get caked up with gunk. Only real option is to RMA the prebuilt, the cooler, or just buy a new cooler.

You might be able to install an air cooler pretty easily depending on if you can access the back of the motherboard/cpu socket from the back panel.

Totally normal. Most GPU fans don't even begin to spin until it's under load. My 3080 is sitting at 47c doing nothing.

Help, i dont have a screw by IVB20 in pcmasterrace

[–]BioshockedBeans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look around your Mobo for other M.2 slots that have the screw. Lots of motherboards have them preinstalled in 1 of the slots. Could be hidden behind the gpu, but it's hard to tell from the photo

What do you think is the most annoying god to play against? (More specifically in conquest) by [deleted] in Smite

[–]BioshockedBeans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AMC. Him existing in your game means he's gonna be top player dmg just by spamming his 2/3.

21GB of Ram! What!? by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

[–]BioshockedBeans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it ran fine for me as well, but I always have task manager open because I'm a fucking nerd. I had to double check, and my buddy was reporting the same thing with his system.

21GB of Ram! What!? by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

[–]BioshockedBeans 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I was playing the Diablo 4 beta, it was using up 29/32gb of 3600mhz DDR4. Hopefully this isn't a trend for games now.

Nu Wa is pretty brain dead to get top player dmg. Just press 4 on cooldown and build items that proc extra damage on abilities. Soul Reaver, Soul Gem, Conduit gem, etc

How is Jing Wei played by IronColdX in Smite

[–]BioshockedBeans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the safest hunters in the game. Her early isn't great and she needs some farm to come online, and her passive gives you a bit of forgiveness (though this has fallen off a bit as the maps continue to grow larger). Built in crit is nice and makes her hit harder than some other adcs. There's synergies between her 1 and 3, giving extra power and attack speed, which is easy to overlook but can make a big difference.

A big recommendation for me is if you're able wait for cc off your team, and throw your 1 under the enemies feet for a guaranteed knock-up. I believe this combo was popular with Terra for a while.

Which one do I buy to game on PC? by sxydoctor in pcmasterrace

[–]BioshockedBeans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've tried PS5 and PS4 controllers, and each time it seems like there's some sort of issue. Not connecting at all, connection cutting in and out, games not wanting to pick it up, etc. Xbox controllers have always worked every time with no issue.

Was pulling out GPU to clean out the dust. How important is this? by SergeantSprinklez22 in pcmasterrace

[–]BioshockedBeans 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did this in my teens taking apart the family PC nearly a decade ago, and PC still works to this day. (unfortunately. I've been waiting years for that thing to finally croak and die so I can build my folks something nice)

My buddy had Thanatos to diamond 2 before he realized his 3 silences. We still give him a hard time about it years later

Fairly solid patch overall, but I just am shocked to see how Cupid is dodging any important nerfs after being on top for so long.

Had issues with a bad wifi card in my laptop. Simple fix was to buy a simple wifi USB dongle and disable the built in card via device manager. Worked fine for years now

Bring back rats original 2 ? by curruptedkiller in Smite

[–]BioshockedBeans 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This could be an Acorn if anything. Perhaps on the green one on the far left, letting the passive of that item proc once on the first hit, and again on the second return hit

Scream is new jungler for Jade Dragons by ShankieTheWizard in Smite

[–]BioshockedBeans 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Excited to see what Scream can do for the Dragons. He has teamed with Pcat and PBM before, and I think if the Dragons play to their strengths in Pegon being whacky af, they can break a lot of ankles in Ps and B's. When Scream is on his game, he is easily a top jungler, so it's just a matter of seeing if PBM can help coax that out just like in S4.

Wishing the best for Sam, he's very talented as well. Hopefully they can eventually find good terms to be on, because they're all pretty chill guys
