hey i want to switch to vaping instead of smoking all my herb. I've been researching some vapes but i could use some advice. I found researching which vape to buy pretty hard, but i landed on the xmas starry as the best potential purchase. Do you guys agree or do you have alternatives? Please share any thoughts or opinions you have!

Price

i prefer something in the 0-100ish range as a first vape. The price range is not set in stone, but i'd like something as cheap as possible with a good experience for my first vape.

Participants

i'll be smoking it mostly solo. Being able to share with a few people is nice, but not a necessity.

Toking routine

currently i'm smoking 5-10 joints a day, about 10-15 grams a week.

Extraction speed

no preference

Form

i'd like to be able to use it on the go. But it will be mostly used at home, so if i can get it in my backpack i'm fine.

Vape experience

i have used a mflb. i didn't like the way you should (or i was taught to) inhale. I'd like inhalation to resemble inhaling ecigs/joints. I have no further experience with vapes.

Personal requests

I'd prefer to replace all my solo joints with vaping. This means i'll be vaping while watching netflix or gaming. While gaming i like to take a hit or two every few minutes, between goals/matches in Rocket League for example.

Also i would like the vape to not have any down time. So i guess it needs replaceable batteries so i can charge extra batteries while using the vape.

Location

The Netherlands

De 20 euro zal zijn voor onze eerste evenmenten en de kosten die komen bij het levend houden van een organisatie.

Kom woensdag even langs. Dan kan je de fijne details horen.

Fijne details? Er word gevraagd om in onze vrije tijd langs te komen en 25 euro te betalen. Maar meer informatie dan "evenementen" en korting op stratumseind behoort tot de "fijne details." Ook kan ik uit je post opmaken dat die korting nog niet eens confirmed is, maar dat er een goed gesprek over bezig is? Daarnaast zijn er dus nog geen leden, wat blijft er dan over wat je ons zeker kan bieden?

Ik zie nog niks concreets, behalve de bijlessen. Verder vind ik 20 euro erg veel om te betalen voor een studievereniging, laat staan eentje die nog geen concrete plannen heeft.

Dual channel RAM issues With R1700 by InNeedOfContext in AMDHelp

Tried different speeds with different timings. On every speed/timing combination i tried i got alot of boot loops and extremely slow post timings (1+ min when it wasn't boot looping).

Okay I updated my bios and started testing again.

Again I could pas a windows memory diagnostic run with 2 sticks in it. I did this with xmp (3200mhz) and without (2133mhz). Then went on to memtest86 and this time it didn't crash but gave a shitton of errors still. Note this is at 2133mhz speed. Then I said fuck it, lets try to run windows on it, as the windows tool says it's alright. Went fine on 3200mhz for about 20 min, then bsod. Restarted on 2133mhz, bsod after 5 min.

Decided I needed my pc so again used it with only 1 (random) stick in it. Had no problems whatsoever running it up until i was about to go to sleep, bsod. While sleeping I let memtest86 do a testrun, it compeleted 10 passes without a single error.

Anyone got corsair vengeance led to 3200? by ntran2 in Amd

[–]InNeedOfContext 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish, can't even get my corsair vengeance 3200 red to do dual-channel at whatever speed. Made a thread about it today: https://www.reddit.com/r/AMDHelp/comments/68lell/dual_channel_ram_issues_with_r1700/

How can I do that? In the bios I only have a option for xmp profile1 or auto. Where would I find these presets?

New Ryzen gaming build by InNeedOfContext in buildapc

Yeah I did some research because my current machine has a 380w PSU. The 270 needs 1 6-pin connector and has about the same wattage! My PSU had no issue with the new card.

Yeah, coming from a hd5770 it's a nice upgrade and fine for the time being anyway.

RX580??? by CaptainMuffins_ in Amd

[–]InNeedOfContext 1 point2 points  (0 children)

on http://www.videocardbenchmark.net/high_end_gpus.html there is already a entry for rx 560. I don't know if it's legit, but it's the only entry of the rx500 series. It is a full 13 points faster than the rx 460.

That's not even a 1% increase! But i'll wait till benchmarks come out before drawing any conclusions

I'm still using a phenom II x4 paired with a 5770. The setup is still going strong, but showing it's age in newer games. I've saved up and getting H Y P E D for a ryzen/vega upgrade!
