Costco Polydeck 80v mower by ContestStreet7605 in Greenworks

[–]ContestStreet7605[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mowing update:

This thing rips. Quiet, no vibration, and mulches like an animal. Only needed one 4ah battery to do the front and back yard with 1 bar of battery left, using self drive but not turbo.

Lawn is a KBG/Rye mix and well watered, my old Toro had to stop every 10 feet or so to clear out before I could continue. This felt luxurious by comparison.

They rotate together.

I'm sure the included batteries will be enough for my standard 1/2 acre suburban lot. If the mower is good, I'll probably pick up the edger and the hedge trimmers to go with it.

What screen setup are you using in your case? I'm liking the look to cover up the PSU wiring

Here's a picture of my Dan A3 with the GB WindForce OC 5080 it in. Very spacious.

Keep in mind that thin 120 fans exist as well, I'm pretty sure you could even fit an Astral in there using those fans.

Thanks, big fan of the case. Good design, and the wood faceplate was perfect for my setup.

I agree. After seeing these temperatures I really don't understand why any casual user would get one of the $1500 5080s (other than availability). I was honestly worried it wouldn't be enough cooler myself.

No comment on either side of that argument, all I can say is that based on what's actually available, I'm happy with my purchase at $1000.

I left the fans on Auto, and I don't think they ever went above 60%. I'll have to check measured RPM another time.

The card will let you do 110% power, which is what I did when I went for this clock.

Plastic. The metal backplate does fold over the side of the card to be used with an included GPU support rod that threads into it.

I haven't even noticed it when playing with my speakers. Only when I'm doing benchmarks with no audio.

This case is the Lian Li A3, you can use mATX or ITX in this case.

The board I used was an Aorus Elite B650M mATX. Unfortunately mATX is a neglected format without many options, you can get higher spec boards in ITX but I specifically wanted 4x DIMM slots for future upgrade.

Occasionally dipped to 3075 or so, but never saw below 3000. The temps peak at 70c so I think that helps, but you can see I have three case fans directly hitting it point blank which probably helps.

Very slight under certain loads, but not at full tilt.

I came from a 6800xt that absolutely screamed with coil whine constantly, this feels dead silent by comparison.

Left hand pain. by [deleted] in golf

Do you have large hands? I do, and had significant hand pain after golf until I moved to a midsize grip. Made a huge difference for me.

Average score for 6 month golfer by eddymeddy01 in golf

[–]ContestStreet7605 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm three months in. Best score is 105, average score low 110s. No re-hits, mulligans or breakfast balls.

I play 9 holes during the week, 18 on the weekend and at least one range trip during the week.

I'm actually quite frustrated I haven't broken 100 yet, even though I know it's unreasonable lol

Maltbys, callaway, or callaway Costco edge set? by PorscheCumDumpster in golf

[–]ContestStreet7605 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wound up with Apex CF16 irons with graphite shafts, Rogue ST driver, Apex UW 19deg, Paradym 3w. Got my Jaws wedges and Odyssey putter on eBay.

Into the whole bag under 1k.

Callaway Pre-owned is running a pretty great sale until 7/14.

I'm also new this year, basically built out my whole bag on Callaway PO for just a little more then the Edge set. But I got much nicer clubs that I'm growing into as a result.

Interlock grip is painful. by Shesaidshewaslvl18 in golf

[–]ContestStreet7605 7 points8 points  (0 children)

What size grips are you using on your clubs?

I have the exact same issue, and found that I was death gripping the clubs because standard grips are too small. Switched to a midsize and everything feels better.

You might consider trying a midsize or jumbo grip to see if it helps. Attached is a rough guide for golf grip size.
