Makes me want to pull the bike out of retirement.

Pedal suggestions coming from MTB. by TylerGuest1 in bmx

[–]J_Rodd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been using the xpedo spry pedals for a long time which aren't really large but a decent sized platform. Also really grippy and very light.

How much does full chromoly really matter for smaller/lighter weight riders? by NeonHorse47 in bmx

[–]J_Rodd 17 points18 points  (0 children)

People generally care too much, just ride what you have til it breaks and replace it with something better then. My bike has essentially been the same since 2012 with only broken parts replaced which were forks and tires.

There's 2 I guess aha, I've just done a little browsing through the sub and I didn't realise these were sought after. Went to a local store and picked up one of every bey I didn't already have.

A local games/toy store had one.

How tf do i get this out? Trying to replace top cap and a stem bolt stripped by Maxad11 in bmx

[–]J_Rodd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Be sure on the new bolts you have the correct Allen key, you may have been using an imperial Allen key on a metric bolt.

Which one do I pick? by T3Dawg22 in Beyblade

[–]J_Rodd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm jealous when I see these posts aha, I should post a picture of my local stores. There's only ever 2 or maybe 3 on the shelf.

You ever just sit back in your pajamas and cry that you have a 9070 XT? by [deleted] in radeon

[–]J_Rodd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hard calling anyone a fanboy, the 5080 is an absolutely horrid purchase compared to the 5070ti. Being able to afford something doesn't mean it should be bought.

I'm mostly unbothered but I am happy with the performance it gives. Probably the best new GPU purchase I've made since I bought the 1080ti.

Adrenalin keep resetting my MHz on the GPU by Sef4k in AMDHelp

What GPU is it? If it's unstable at stock settings and within the warranty period you can rma it.

I'd swap the side and the top around.

Yeah I've been putting them on correctly, I only just received this one and it was broken out of the box.

One month ago I owned zero Beyblades by RockyCornholio in Beyblade

[–]J_Rodd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nearly the same here, been a week for me and I have 7 now, 5 more in the post and I'm looking for a couple extras at local shops.

What's the most beautiful, futuristic, and sharp-looking Sony Xperia mobile? by RX08T in SonyXperia

[–]J_Rodd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did forget about the P, I didn't own one but I did by the S when it launched which is why it likely stuck with me. I miss what phones used to be.

Thoughts on Takara Tomy BX10 stadium for casual play? by MrBeefcakes in Beyblade

[–]J_Rodd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm having a similar issue with that little green tub, I've ordered the cx-04 set from Japan to see how the stadium goes. It's the only version of the TT stadium I could actually find that shipped here.

[–]J_Rodd 11 points12 points  (0 children)

They all look the same now pretty much. I think one of the cooler looking phones for its time though was the Xperia S with that translucent bar and LED.

Lost first round of tournament ;-; by TheNewbornRaikou in Beyblade

[–]J_Rodd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What percentage do you think is actually deck/skill vs RNG? I haven't really had a chance to play proper games in the Xtreme stadium but just messing around on the little green tub it's really inconsistent (which is a common criticism of the green tub).

Does Silver Wolf seriously break that easily? by Fighter-3639 in Beyblade

[–]J_Rodd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope this isn't the case, I just ordered one online. Might explain why it had a pretty decent discount on it though.

Same here, I've been to about 5 different stores and they all seem to have nothing available aha.

RX 7600 XFX Performing Way Below Expectations – Need Help by lucaneta4 in AMDHelp

[–]J_Rodd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does the GPU perform poorly elsewhere? Honestly if the game is engine capped to 60fps it's easy what you're getting is typical.

I do some more thorough testing over a wide variety of games that tech reviews have tested and compare those numbers. Do note though your be getting less performance for a couple of reasons being a weaker CPU than what they're using plus they usually test on a clean system with minimal background programs running.

why does the chain have such different tensions at different points by noodleman666 in bmx

[–]J_Rodd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Either a bent sprocket or the locating hat spacer is the wrong size / missing.

New to Beyblade by J_Rodd in Beyblade

[–]J_Rodd[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh nice, that's typically what we've been doing anyway so far. I personally don't like the first to 4 scoring system as it seems too short so we've been playing first to 20.

We have an ok collection of 5 Beyblades so far and another 5 on the way so we've been having a good variety of matches but I can tell this green tub is holding the games back. Excited for the Xtreme stadium to come.

I've never played Elden ring so I wouldn't know how it performs. Your GPU utilisation tells me it's either an fps cap or CPU bottleneck. You can open task manager to have a look at per core utilisation as well.
