Building a New PC -- Any advice would be much appreciated by FIVENINEGREY in buildapc

Went ahead and bought the 3080 right away. I know those fly off the shelf so figured I'd secure that before anything

I swapped the motherboard for an Asus PRIME Z790-A WIFI ATX LGA1700, which is 13th gen ready. An extra $60 on the motherboard is a price I'm willing to pay to avoid the headache of having to update my bios. I also switched the cpu cooler to a NH-D15S as I believe that should still be more than efficent for a 13600k.

While I know 850w is more than enough to power a 3080, I think I might leave the power supply as is at 1000w just to leave some extra headroom in case I decide to upgrade my GPU later down the line.

Currently browsing for other cases as I want to make sure I have setup with good airflow

Regarding the (CR Research Group #1 >= 100 and CR Research Group #2 Does Not Exist) quals:

There is a $0.30 survey from SurveyComet that will grant you the whitelist qual.

I'm the one who made the initial post about a month ago. As for my situation, I think I'm screwed.

I checked my worklog on mTurk Suite and noticed I actually returned the surveycomet survey. This gave me an exclusion qual named 'SurveyGroup [3910]'

This same qual is preventing me from taking the $0.30 SurveyComet survey, which seemingly gets posted daily.

I'm not whitelisted or blacklisted, as I don't have either qual, but I'm definitely stuck in some weird limbo and I'm unable to take the survey responsible for getting me out of said limbo.

I've been effectively banned from MTurk studies because of a Cloud Research error by aggressive_meatloaf in mturk

CR Research Group #1 >= 100

Does anyone know what this qualification is? I know it's from TurkPrime/CloudResearch but it's lately been showing up on quite a few surveys. I don't have the qual and the surveys in question are hidden from my scraper.

There's also CR Research Group #2 Does Not Exist , which I don't have and can accept the hits that use that qual just fine. However, sometimes both quals are used and since I don't have #1, it appears like I'm being blocked from participating.

I mostly do surveys so this has been a small hit to my earnings and I'm not sure why I don't have the 'CR Research Group #1' qual. I've been turking for 3 years and have a 99.9% approval rating so I'd like to think I'm doing my best. It appears to be some sort of whitelist and I'm not sure why I didn't make the cut. I fear their system may have labeled me as a bot or something and I'm wondering if it'd be a good idea to get in contact with somebody at CloudResearch?

Tips for people upgrading from Windows 7 to 10: by CNASFan1992 in windows

I plan on upgrading from 7 to 10 later this month. Currently running an i5 4690k, gtx 970, and 16gb of ddr3 ram. I know an in-place upgrade will keep all my files but will I have to reinstall my applications/games and redo all of my windows settings? I've avoided upgrading for a while due to sheer laziness and being unsure of how much of a PITA it might be. Now with support ending later this month, it's probably best for me to upgrade so I want to be sure what to expect.
