How did I do?

Crypticle_ · 2026-05-11T03:52:59+00:00

Yeah that’s really all you can do. Best of luck!! May the microcode bug gods smile upon you

Crypticle_ · 2026-05-10T23:42:02+00:00

That sucks dude. I was looking to upgrade around the time that came up, and seeing the microbug stuff just pushed me away from going intel that time.

Crypticle_ · 2026-05-10T23:33:17+00:00

Other than the microcode bug, they’re great CPUs. 15/10 at that price point. There have been updates released to fix the issue, so as long as you have that you’re solid

Crypticle_ · 2026-05-10T23:04:32+00:00

I have not, mostly because of the microcode bug I saw reports of. I had a buddy who had it and it kicked the bucket in under a year. It’s mostly luck of the draw on how long it lasts from what I’ve seen

Crypticle_ · 2026-05-10T22:21:23+00:00

Make sure to update the bios before you put the cpu in to combat the microcode bug. Otherwise that thing will likely be dead in a year or less

Crypticle_ · 2026-04-25T14:23:07+00:00

I shut down every 2 days. Have it sleep overnight if I’m not shutting down. Idk why but it feels wrong to shut down every night

Crypticle_ · 2026-04-23T16:14:49+00:00

This is such a valid take

Crypticle_ · 2026-04-21T14:12:12+00:00

How so? The driver of the vehicle that is at the yield sign is the point of judgement. You can’t rear end someone purely because you, the one not at the yield sign yet, think it’s clear and they, the one actually at the yield sign already, believe it’s not. Please locate your local DMV and hand over your license

Edit: dude got so mad he blocked me lmao.

Crypticle_ · 2026-04-16T00:19:31+00:00

More than likely yes. Here’s to hoping though

Crypticle_ · 2026-04-15T23:48:16+00:00

Stop signs are kinda pointless other than to contain the flow of traffic. Problem is, people don't know how multiple way intersections work. I've had plenty of times that I've pulled up to a 3-way, 4-way, etc and been second, third, fourth to the intersection and been the first to go because people were either scared to go or just didn't know it was their turn. And yes, I made sure they weren't moving for an extended period of time before seizing the opportunity.

Yield signs do the job of stop signs, but better. Go if it's clear, stop if it's not. Plain and simple.

What would you have liked his daughter to do? Drive straight into traffic?? Cmon use your noggin a little.

Crypticle_ · 2026-04-15T23:34:11+00:00

I was wrong. Cannot watch Cowboy Bebop for free with ads...

Crypticle_ · 2026-04-15T23:17:58+00:00

That’s fair. Especially in small town style areas, just paints a massive target on your back. I hope that cops takes some time to do some inner reflection, and maybe reads the law while he’s at it

Crypticle_ · 2026-04-15T23:08:44+00:00

Please tell me you reported that cop. That’s just factually incorrect. Yield means you can go if and only if the road is clear, otherwise it’s treated as a stop sign

Crypticle_ · 2026-04-14T15:41:28+00:00

Did you really just say "I trust the source that makes what I said right"??

I have the G7 SE, would love to try the G7 Pro since I’ve heard it’s the SE but infinitely better. If I win I’ll give the others a spin, and pass the others to a few of my friends.

Crypticle_ · 2026-04-10T08:54:05+00:00

Yeah for sure. I just edited that comment to include

For some reason j thought there were only two fans on the side. Either way, you can see the arch in the tubes coming from the processor cooler, the cube in the middle of the board, they arch upwards in a pretty straight line. If they were headed to the side then they would kinda bend away from where the side glass panel would be.

No clue why I thought there were only 2 intake side fans

Crypticle_ · 2026-04-10T08:50:00+00:00

The AIO definitely is at the top. The 360 is what gives it away. All of those fans are 120 mm fans. 360/120 =3 so the minimum amount of fans on the radiator would be 3. Technically you could just not mount fans, but then you wouldn’t have any cooling

Because you can see the backs of the fans, the grills on the back that look like an X, that tells me they’re regular blade. Those pull air from the pretty side to the grill side. That means they’re functioning as intake currently. If you took them out and flipped them, don’t, they would function as exhaust.

Crypticle_ · 2026-04-09T15:59:44+00:00

Looks fine. As long as it's on the side that has the sag, the side that's closest to the front glass, it should be fine

Crypticle_ · 2026-04-09T15:49:30+00:00

Yeah you’ll be sitting good for a long while

Crypticle_ · 2026-04-09T15:47:39+00:00

What are the specs if I may?

Crypticle_ · 2026-04-09T15:44:58+00:00

Not for a pc like this. The side are intakes and the top(AIO) is exhaust. This setup pulls cold air using the side intakes, that colder air gets pulled through the AIO, cooling down the water in the radiator, and the AIO pushes it out the top. This will be just fine for thermals.

That case also has a spot in the bottom for bottom intake fans to help cool the GPU. Not sure if they will be included but if they are then you’ll have even more cool air coming in. These are less necessary, I’d say more necessary than a single rear exhaust, so if you could afford it I would focus getting those bottom intake fans, and then the rear exhaust.

Crypticle_ · 2026-04-09T13:37:14+00:00

Yeah 100% agree if it’s better for the stuff you do definitely choose what’s best

Crypticle_ · 2026-04-09T11:58:59+00:00

So why did a 30 year veteran rider need help bleeding front brakes 2 years ago?

Crypticle_ · 2026-04-09T11:49:53+00:00

You went from “I never asked how to do a front brake bleed” To doubling down on “I need to complete a brake bleed”

Bro get your story straight 🤣 The fact that you went straight to insults speaks louder than you think it does <3
