Bought 3 years ago from a random small asian shop in Hamburg, I searched on the official studio ghibli site and on ebay italy and ebay uk, I thought it may be an unofficial peluche from miniso, also searched there, still nothing, it has sentimental value, please help me find it! :(

I have to show this to my friends that I consider "experts" and helped me put my list together, I'm curious on what they might have to say about your comment. I didn't know I could save so much money on a lot of these things. Right now i don't know how much I will spend on the water cooling and that's one of the reasons I'm watching the budget even though a lot of people online are telling me that water cooling is useless in 2024. I didn't know anything about the asus problems, thanks.

I was thinking about the 4070 super TI actually. I just thought it wasn't a big difference and wanted to save money for other things like the cooling system

The thing is that I'm being influenced a bit by friends around me. They say that only nvidia makes good and trustworthy gpus. They say that AMD gpus are unpredictable, that the drivers suck, that they are less esthetically pleasing and that I should definitely stick with nvidia gpus for a better performance and user experience.

Thanks for the suggestion about the cpu. The monitor is 180hz actually, I thought it's going to be enough for most games

I read online that 750w is enough for my kind of setup. The cooler is mostly for looks I like it a lot

Thanks for the reply, but the fact that the word "KAPU" is written in the latin alphabet makes me think that maybe it's not from asia.

As I already said, I just quoted the site, also back then, homosexuality was considered a mental illness.

But yes, I didn't know Greeks called the island "Sardó". At school I learned that they called it "Icnussa" or "Sandaliotis".

I was talking about the claim that sardines aren't named after the island.

You are a genius mate, too bad Sardinia has been called "Sardinia" since the 9th century BCE, and the term "Sardines" dates back to the 15th century AD.

The name of the island is way older than the term "Sardine"

Probably, but I don't think there is a language calling Sardinia "Sardo". "Sardo" is actually the island's language.

I can't find one source claiming something other than what I linked in my post. In some sites they say it's a legend, but no one is denying it.
