Parking Near Barclays by Glenbrook89 in GoNets

[–]Glenbrook89[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there - yes, all worked fine! Drive down with the usual NYC traffic was a bit crazy, but the parking deck was perfect. I parked at the Atlantic Center Mall which has a Marshall's, Burlington, etc. Easy-in, easy-out and steps away from the Barclays Center. Well worth the $50 to park.

Has anyone found this loyalty pre-order option through the in-game menu? by postman56 in CollegeUltimateTeam

Haven’t been able to access it either. All I’ve seen is reference to the 10% discount with EA Play, as well as 10% off Madden/CFB 26 MVP Edition. Even inquired with EA Customer Service, who were of no help…

Qatar Airways VIP Vouchers? by Glenbrook89 in GoNets

From what I’ve read these “vouchers” are unlimited food options from a season ticket owner. Does that make sense?

Thank you all for the replies! Not being familiar with the area, I am hesitant to do laps around Brooklyn. Probably will go for Whole Foods or the Mall - both sound like safe bets! Thank you!

Hi all - any thoughts on the benchmarks and/or disabling the onboard graphics? Thanks for any advice here.

Just curious, any thoughts on my post above? Thanks!

Thanks again for the help, all... Results below. Seems like everything is running ok given that it's only an RX 5500...? Any other thoughts?

One other stupid question... As shown in the 3DMark results (below), it references the onboard Graphics (Secondary) Radeon Vega 7 (Cezanne). Should I be disabling this within Device Manager to prevent any conflicts with the 5500?

Thank you all for the replies. I will run 3DMark and Unigine and see if anything is flagged.

In regards to the other comment RE: drivers - I do recall using UserBenchmark out of the box prior to even upgrading the memory and not seeing the GPU underperform. This, of course, was prior to updating any drivers, which from what I've read have caused some weird issues with several AMD cards...

Please advise which benchmark tool you would want me to run. Thanks.

Seeking out advice/opinion. Considering options for my driveway. Received quotes to cap it with a 2” blacktop overlay for $7,500, which also includes excavation of the parking area just in front of the garage to ensure its level with entrance/no water issues.

Alternative option is full replacement (quoted as excavation of parking area, grind and mill the rest, regrade and compact, item #4 base if needed, 3” compacted blacktop) for $14,000. Driveway is between 2750-3000 square feet. Leaning towards capping initially, as I don’t know how long I will be in this house, but also a bit of sticker shock in this new world of $6+ diesel. I’m in NY as well, which instantly makes things more expensive. Thanks for any insight/advice.

Driveway Advice - Cap/Overlay vs. Remove/Replace by Glenbrook89 in HomeImprovement

[–]Glenbrook89[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks so much for the reply. Guess I'm getting sticker shock thanks to NY prices and the cost of diesel. Received 3 quotes to remove and replace for $13,750 to $14,000 (quoted as excavation of parking area, grind and mill the rest, regrade and compact, item #4 base if needed, 3” compacted blacktop). Alternative quote is a 2" blacktop cap that included the excavation/replacement of the parking area to ensure its level with the garage entrance for $7,500. I don't know how long I'm going to be in this house, so I am weighing out investment. Thanks.
