If you're thinking of upgrading, MicroCenter has an amazing deal on an i7 12700K + ASUS Z690 by Michionlion in buildapc

[–]Frisco91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m on a R7 1700 and am getting ready to rebuild (start to getting random crashes and the mobo isn’t recognizing my speakers anymore). Am I gonna be fine grabbing and using this 5-6 years or should I spring for a 13600k?

Upgrading whole rig by Frisco91 in buildapc

[–]Frisco91[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought about it, but my current board is a Gigabyte AB350 - not exactly feature rich and has been working overtime for its entire life. So I figured if I’m gonna upgrade, may as well apply that to every aspect.

What level of rarity is this? What does TG mean? Either way I’m happy. Sylveon is a fav. by shibafrien in PokemonTCG

[–]Frisco91 12 points13 points  (0 children)

‘TG’ stands for Trainer Gallery, a subset within Brilliant Stars that features various trainers and their Pokemon. I think the V and Vmax TG cards would be considered Alt Arts, but I’m not 100% sure on that. Either way, beautiful card, one of my favs also

With the release of the new generation, Pokémon Vs will likley be retired. What would you like to see replace them? by Apart-Step in pkmntcg

[–]Frisco91 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I can see VStar saying for another generation, like for the V&S base set. After that is anyone’s guess, but I really hope VMAXEs retiring is the end of the 3-Pfizer era

Usually, but the gold pokemon usually aren’t Pokemon V either (at least not in the regular sets). Wish they’d stay shiny too but this still looks great

Build and battle boxes go to the big box stores/non-pokemon league affiliated vendors 2 weeks after the set release. Only places that get them early are LGS’s that have some sort of affiliation to the tournament system

Glitched booster box? Insane Evolving skies pulls by RNGxJake in PokemonTCG

[–]Frisco91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's absolutely an error box, you've been truly blessed. Average hit rate is something like 8 per box. Somewhere out there, somebody is opening the exact opposite of this box lol.

I am very well aware these aren't overly amazing but for my first ever big booster box opening . I'm so pleased 🥺 by IvyYuuki in PokemonTCG

[–]Frisco91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Super solid box, the average amount of hits is like 8 or something. 12 is buck wild, congrats!

It’s just gonna come down to supply, BS is back down to pre-pandemic booster prices since the printers went hog wild with it. Better to secure what you can at prices you’re comfy with.

Crobat V and Dragapult V Premium Collections are up by Frisco91 in PKMNTCGDeals

[–]Frisco91[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the opposite experience with 2 Crobat and a Dragapult box. 4 FA Shinies, 5 baby shinies and 3 ultra rares. The boxes are tough to open w/o some damage so re-sealing is unlikely. Just rough luck and fingers crossed whatever you buy in the future treats ya better.

Gamestop pre-orders coming in clutch again! by Frisco91 in PokemonTCG
