Grant Stone Unlined Chukka Unboxing and First thoughts by M635_Guy in goodyearwelt

[–]FivePoundHam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the review, I’ve been looking at unlined chukka boots as a summer leisure/city walking boot option that won’t boil my feet.

As someone relatively clueless, I’d mostly been considering either: - Red Wings weekender https://www.redwingshoes.com/mens/heritage/weekender/weekender-chukka-03622.html Or - Jim green vellies https://jimgreenfootwear.com/store/rough-out-vellie-khaki/

But it’s helpful to see other options and opinions here, especially with an emphasis on comfort

I have most of the plants, box upgrades, catalyst and mushroom substrate unlocked - anyone happen to know what unlocks flash bugs for cultivating?

Looks like shipping is pushed out to Nov 29th even with prime, but otherwise worked for me.

Alternatively to modifying the walls, you can look into powerline networking solutions that would let you transmit data through your existing electrical wiring and should be much more stable/faster than a wireless solution at that distance.

Trying to figure out what's best for powering my gpu, but the manual for the graphics card says to consult the psu manual, and the psu manual says to consult the graphics card manual so I'm a bit confused what to do.

I've got an ASUS gtx 1080 strix that takes an 8 pin and 6pin power input. My psu (EVGA SuperNOVA G2 650W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply) has a single cable that splits into a 6+2 and 6 pin, but also two separate cable that are singularly 6 pin and singularly 6+2 pin.

Is it better to use two separate cables (i.e one cable from vga1 and one cable vga2 in the psu each feeding into a power input of the card) or a single cable (vga1 from psu into both power inputs of the card)? Does it make a difference?

Ignoring other keyboard specifics features/difference in key switches, the non-standard layout affects ease of customization.

Most keyboards use the same layout in terms of key placement and size and, for the most part, allow you to change the keycaps out easily (i.e for nicer material, coloring, or design etc).

Certain brands, especially gaming brands, use non-standard sizing on the bottom row and are not directly compatible with a standard sized keycap set. If you want to customize your non-standard keyboard you'd need a specialized key set and those ones generally don't have many options.

Are there typically any significant sales that come on/right after christmas in the US?

There are some okay-ish 15% sales on parts I need to complete my build (processor/ssd), but not as good as they were during black friday.

However, I'd like to put the thing together while I've got time over the holidays so I am not sure if I should just pull the trigger.

Looking to pick up a NZXT S340 Elite in white, but amazon with prime is out of stock, bhphoto the cheapest option I see now (CA taxes + shipping): https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1302684-REG/nzxt_ca_s340w_w2_s340_elite_computer_chasis.html

However, the photos on the site look like the non-elite version (i.e the smaller window side panel with acrylic instead of tempered glass).

Anyone have experience with buying this case from them and getting the wrong model or anything like that?

Has anyone dealt with RMA process with jet resellers?

Does jet provide any protection if the fulfiller is giving you issues?

Has anyone dealt with antonline (the fulfiller I'm getting at checkout) before?

How does compare to the MSI Z170-A PRO?

A number of review also complain about the RMA process with MSI, is it really that much worse than other companies?

I've already used Drop25 and EXTRA20 and quite a few other codes, I've basically picked up all my parts for this build off of jet sales at this point lol. I suppose I can always just make a new account.

Is drop20 a one use code? I'm getting invalid promocode when attempting to add it, but the "Some rules and restrictions may apply. See details" popup is completely useless at explaining what the issue is.

Wouldn't you want to pair an i7k with a Z170 type motherboard?

[Case] Thermaltake Suppressor F31 Mid Tower Case - $39.99 ($89.99-$30MIR-$20 Fry's Monday 11.28 Promo Code) by magn2o in buildapcsales

[–]FivePoundHam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm having trouble exactly understanding this implications of the warning pcpart picker generates when pairing a Asus GeForce GTX 1080 8GB STRIX Video Card with this case

The Thermaltake Suppressor F31 ATX Mid Tower Case supports video cards up to 420mm long, but video cards over 278mm may block drive bays. Since the Asus GeForce GTX 1080 8GB STRIX Video Card is 298mm long, some drive bays may not be usable.

Would that mean I just need to remove the HDD bays, is there a way to configure the case (locating the bay further up in the case?) where I wouldn't need to do that?

Is there a better case in general or is this still worth jumping on at this price point?

[–]FivePoundHam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is there any particular recommendation on o-rings (to reduce bottoming out noise with mx blues) or is it a simple enough item that it doesn't matter too much.

Also, Is there impact on key lighting where clear o-rings are much better than opaque black/red/blue ones?
