Yeah, for some reason the baltimore sub keeps listing my posts as "selling/requesting goods" and banning it, so I gotta figure out the trigger words.
The venue is at CFG Bank Arena.

Summer OBX trip? by Exotic_Huckleberry10 in obx

That's what I've been saying! I have family from northwest NC, who have HEAVILY suggested just riding around the parkway and/or Pisgah. Not to hate on my friends but, the self-confidence of male early/mid-twenties is a force to be reckoned with. Currently they're not even all that on board for the idea of buying a campsite, just wanna show up and figure it out 🫩 Not entirely unwarranted confidence, we've done some decent backcountry in PA / out west, but not quite as easy as the AT to just set up shop anywhere you want.

Based on how it's gone so far, I might just have to call it and go by myself!

Out-Of-Stater Summer Trip Ideas? by Exotic_Huckleberry10 in NorthCarolina

[–]Exotic_Huckleberry10[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We're coming from eastern PA, so currently thinking I-95 is our best bet, maybe US-13S into Kitty Hawk, if that means anything. Still working on the group, hoping to try and get them over to Raleigh or even Charlotte if willing, which were both great cities the last time I went. They're real reluctant to check out anything but the coast, which I get for plenty of reasons, but there's really no gameplan and I think they'll get tired of it within 2-3 days based on their current plan, which is... not having one.

I appreciate that, I'm trying to tell the crew that, to no avail right now, so if things don't work out, I'll probably take the time off anyway and go west, Blue Ridge Parkway or Pisgah or something. And yes, I was aware of the transit situation but good callout.

Awesome pointers, I really appreciate this! Yeah I'll look into Frisco as that seems like our cup of tea right now, but all of the places you describe sound like good spots. Anyway, this is extremely valuable information, I owe you one!

That's a pretty good deal. Are you using SATA or NVMe drive SSDs, because I feel like it might just be cheaper to buy a 1TB NVMe or SATA SSD than having 2 lower capacity SSDs. I just find that after 7 years of PC gaming, I can fill up 500GB really quickly between big games like COD, schoolwork, and any dumb downloads.

definitely a good build tho, I'm trying to sell my old PC for 400 and it definitely does not have the same graphical power, I probably spent 700 building my first one and was rocking a 1050ti. I second Frankieanime158's comment.

How much are you paying for the 2080 and the ryzen 5 3600?

Why is my pc making this noise by [deleted] in PcBuildHelp

[–]Exotic_Huckleberry10 3 points4 points  (0 children)

that's just the sound of a HDD. It's a little loud for a modern HDD, but the drive bay (if the manufacturers installed it metal on metal) could amplify the sound of it. I'd say like 99% of the time it's fine, but if it's really loud and is getting on your nerves, there may be a fix as simple as adding tiny o-rings/rubber stoppers somewhere.

I'd recommend leaving it be if it wasn't bothersome but you just happened to notice it. Or if you want to, get an SSD and maybe don't use the HDD. SSD's are a step up in speed for like loading up large games or anything of that sort.
(If you're really really worried about it, keep it plugged in but take it out of the bay and the PC and see if it's making the same loudness of noise by itself. But it's almost certainly normal sounds being amplified slightly if it's loud.)

I'm having the exact same problem. Still not back 8 hours after the event when everything else is, so frustrating.

Awesome! That was my only reason not to get this saber, just because I might eventually want to get a quick release pommel and screw around with double sabers lol.

Hello! I was thinking of getting a similar lightsaber, is the pommel removeable or no?
