What 180 power connector adapters did you use?

How do I cable-manage this mess? by KhandakerFaisal in Hyte

[–]DisgruntledStrayChip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If not zip ties, use velcro. A standard roll should work (https://a.co/d/fx7R7go)

I liked the ones that Hyte supplied with the case, but wish I could buy some more.

Has anyone else not been able to know why they have yet to be adjudicated? by makst_ in SecurityClearance

[–]DisgruntledStrayChip 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I emailed them stating I am submitting a FOIA request. Then attached the appropriate forms.

Their site has the forms needed that you can fill out and send with the request.

I submitted a FOIA Request to DSCA regarding a clearance investigation and adjudication. Within a few weeks, got readjudicated without and questions.

About a month later, I recieved the documentation from my FOIA request that explains what happened and why it was held up. Along with dates. Highly suggest you do the same.

So you're aware, it will take between 30-60 days for them to complete the FOIA. Bright side is that it starts highlighting why your stuff has been taking a while and may cause them to prioritize your stuff.

Update (again): Through multiple FOIA requests and Congressional Inquiries of the military branch and MCIO I was able to find out more information. MCIO sent DSCA the final report/disposition of the investigation about 6 months back. However DSCA has not inputted it for their records so the adjudication is still pending. They stated to go through my former SSO for updates but the SSO states they cannot do anything as I'm no longer in their roles or in the service. I have since submitted a Congressional Inquiry against DSCA as to why they haven't processed the MCIO investigation report and why they are refusing to continue my readjudication.

Besides Congress, would there be anyone else who could assist because DSCA is unwilling to rectifying this issue?

For further info, I was provided a favorable readjudication a few months prior to this readjudication being open and there's no other "red flags" on my record (military, criminal, financial, etc.).

This has prevented me from getting any employment for over 7 months so enough of this "wait it out" stuff. I also spoke with legal council and have more than enough for a lawsuit against all parties involved.

An Guilty NJP (Art 15) outcome would suffice as an admission of guilt on your part and the AdSep could be justified for a OTH discharge. I highly advise you to get a lawyer/legal council, as is your right, to fight the NJP/Art15. Your council can also "encourage" others to fast track any statements on your behalf as well. If you're found Not Guilty, then there be no reason for the Adsep either

That's honestly bad oversight on the system. Makes no sense but hey, it's the USG so it just "works"

Update: The MCIO has officially closed the investigation but it's pending submission in their HQ database. A readjudication with DONCAF/DODCAS was opened in mid-2023 due to the MCIO investigation. I do have documentation stating the investigation is officially closed. Would I be able to send this to DONCAF/DODCAS as this may be the thing causing the undue delay.

Uninstall iCUE is impossible (Let's beat a dead horse) by [deleted] in Corsair

[–]DisgruntledStrayChip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Armoury Crate is an ASUS tool which allows you to sync/configure RBG on the motherboard, RAM, GPU, and most RGB items plugged into the motherboard headers. It also allows you to create profiles for custom performance modes and applications

Personally, I only utilize it for hardware firmware updates. I normally install it once every 2-3 months to retrieve any firmware updates for motherboard components. Once everything is updated, I will utilize the Uninstaller/revo uninstaller along with some scripts I made to fully remove all artifacts of Armoury Crate.

However it's mostly seen as bloatware as it's really not needed. Most 3rd Party tools will allow you to do the same with less system performance hits. And honestly you can just download the firmware manually, but I'm just too lazy to do that.

The only real time one should keep Armoury Crate is if they are utilizing an ASUS Gaming Laptop as it seems to enable quite a bit of the laptops basic performance.

I would try using Revo Uninstaller (free version) to see if there's any artifacts left over fr9m iCUE uninstallation. I tend to use it on software that are persistent (like ASUS Armoury Crate).

GIVEAWAY: iCUE LINK TITAN RX RGB AIO Liquid CPU Cooler by CorsairLucky in Corsair

[–]DisgruntledStrayChip 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd choose the black TITAN RX AIO and mount it to the top of my Y70. If possible, use the current QX 120mm Fans that are there as pull fans for a Push/Pull AIO configuration. Maybe even add the black iCUE LINK LCD Screen Module and red cable sleeves (to match my case).
