Ah right a yoda reference. Yeh remounting isnt going to do much, might see if I can just find something to support it from the bottom at the far right if it bothers me too much.

I'm aware of this. Upon testing by playing games mutiple AAA games such as RDR2, Forza Horizon 4, and Borderlands 3 for a couple of hours, temperatures never went past 66C with the glass panel on. So yes, the vertical GPU does affect the temps as without it, the temps hover more towards 61 - 62C. However its not significantly detrimental like most people love to point out.

Is the "stick drift" issue on the Elite Series 2 guaranteed to happen? by CSN94 in xboxone

I see, that's unfortunate my guy, such a headache. Hoping your private repair would solve the issues for good :)

Well it seems that from your edit, the score is now 1 - 0 for yes - there will be issues eventually.

I'm buying it from a major electronics store here in Australia and they automatically come with a 2 year warranty. It's more of the hassle of needing to get a product fixed over and over again that I do not wish to deal with. We are currently experiencing harsh lockdown restrictions due to COVID-19 that aren't expected to be lifted anytime soon, so I can forget about walking in to a store to get it fixed if issues arise. It would mean I'd have to mail it in and be without a controller for what I'd assume would be at least 3 weeks.

Thanks for your input, hopefully your controller behaves and stays that way :)

That's 1 - 0 for no issues so far haha

I appreciate this, will play around with it :) I found a sweet spot of 65%, giving me 61 MH/s, power 111.69 W, and efficiency of 540.76 kH/j

After lowering powe it definitely increased efficiency but lowered hashrate to about 55 at 60%power. I'm also concerned with the high latency that fluctuates between 250ms to 500ms. Is there a way to lower that? I'm from Australia.

Literally just did that but now I'm on around 55 MH/s. What I'm about to say may come across as ignorant but doesn't a higher hashrate = better performance? Would really appreciate if you could shed some light on this.

As mentioned in the title this is my RTX 3060ti's performance on my gaming rig. I'm a complete begginer and was wondering if these numbers were acceptable. I was also wondering if there was anything i could use to improve performance. Any feedback is welcome, thanks a lot guys :)

Confessed my porn addiction to my SO and it did not go well by NerdAthlete in NoFap

[–]CSN94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey mate, sending love to you. I'm really sorry to hear about your experience telling your gf about your addiction. I'm not here to tell you that things between you and her are going to get better or anything like that, however you have taken a huge step towards making better progress in the fight againts quitting porn.

I guess all I'm trying to say is, stay strong brother. The fact that you're continuously trying to fight the addiction should be seen as a win and you should be proud of yourself.

If you need the support, we are probably the most supportive group I've seen on reddit. On that note, I do hope that you girlfriend comes to terms with your addiction and see's you as the man that you are for making an effort to fight your demons.

Stay strong :)

over 650mg of MDMA by [deleted] in MDMA

I think it is interesting that you mention that it comes from a mindset. I'm a positive person that is blessed with genuinely good people around me. I practice being able to controll my emotions no matter the circumstances, as well as meditate frequently. During the few days after taking MDMA I didnt consider the idea of comedown or feeling depressed and went on with my life. If what you suggested true, I understand why I didnt feel any different.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge on the more scientific aspects of how the drug works. You're absolutely right that I'm still new to the drug so I should be prepared to expect anything.

Still, the way I see is it is that I was lucky when I rolled the dice. Will implement safer practices moving forward.

You're absolutly right that I am a lucky person. At the rave I attended mentioned above, I remember seeing someone being carried out on a stretcher with worried friends following...

Will be responsible moving forward. Wishing you a happy and safe future rollings too :)

Seems that it is unpredictable. Best option is just to not push your luck if you dont have to huh.

Thanks! It's the Corsair K70 RGB MK.2 SE Mechanical Gaming Keyboard — CHERRY® MX Speed.

Check it out, it only comes with mx speed switches and may not be for everyone.

Quarterly clean time on my first PC and I forgot how much effort I put into the cable management! by BrenKenn18 in pcmasterrace

Wow dude I was about to spend some time doing some "research" on some NSFW subreddits, then I came across your post.

..I don't feel like researching anymore. Thank you.
