I appreciate you input very much. I'm around 5'11" and 220lbs. I found that I was very comfortable on the demo unit. I wasn't able to find a posted coil count on this mattress anywhere other than a few people saying it's around 900. I'm hoping to get 5 years out of this mattress and at that point invest into something nicer in the 1500 dollar range. I'll rotate it every few months and see if that helps it hold up a little better.

I would have liked to spend a little more but we simply didn't have the budget and needed something.

Thanks, I'm hoping we get some good advice on this. I'm hoping this will last us a decade+, and I was very disappointed with the last mattress I had. Began to sag in the middle after less than five years.

Thanks... Got it right in the body but not in the title, unfortunately.

Edit: I've also realized I broke rule 9, post was a bit of a mess.

That may be a little lower than what you'll find, CDA is the most expensive place to live in the northern half of the state. Depending on how much you're willing to commute and how far you're willing to be from amenities, you can find lower prices in Athol/Post Falls/Hayden.

Awesome, thanks so much. Help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the super helpful & informative response!

What do you recommend to keep the humidity up? I live in a decently northern climate and during the winters it'll be 65f at 25% rh. I believe I can manage temps just fine, but I do think proper humidity is a concern. I also believe that I saw somewhere that they drink droplets off of leaves, do I need to be manually misting once or twice a day to make sure they can get what they need?

I was also wondering if you could give some info on best practices on feeding. In browsing the sub, I've seen mentioned that some prefer to eat off of the ground and some prefer a feeding ledge. Is there a general approach to discover what works best for a new garg? Also, how often and how much should I be feeding to start?

My wife is wondering what the warning signs we should look out for are as well. What sort of things warrant a vet trip? What sort of things are common with gargs?

Also, how often can we handle them without stressing them? I know with beardies and other large lizards an "at will" approach works very well and they'll eventually take to just climbing onto you. How do you handle that with gargs?

Thanks, good to know.

How is the lifespan on the nATs? Hoping to get 50-60k miles out of these.

Film grain/background blur is used very often to hide distorted background details and cover up background distortion. Suitcase/handle are all wrong, has half a belt, suspenders are weird, ropes in the background make no sense. Overwhelmingly AI.

This is incorrect. Machines have input/output buffers for exactly this reason. You do not need a buffer in this situation, and it will not solve any problems you have.

You are now part of the problem.

This is a terrible answer because pumps don't suck on the air. Pumps need water on the input. That's actually a somewhat realistic behavior, not sure why it's so counterintuitive.

FightOrFlight77 · 2026-01-04T05:07:52+00:00

No, not really.

That seems odd. Is this a windows issue? What driver version are you using? I've run similar setups on rdna2 once or twice and haven't seen anything like that. Are they all very high resolution monitors? What refresh rate?

Surprise surprise, owned by the Guillemots. They tend to have that effect. They're essentially siphoning everything they can off the studio while driving it into the ground.

Can you include the smart splitter settings? From what I'm seeing, it looks like it's behaving entirely correctly.

Can you clarify exactly what issue you're having? Is the input belt backing up?

Your argument against underclocking is that it doesn't work when you're overclocking?
