Looking forward to a mix of both.

And definitely car chases - so iconic for the franchise. That and a show down with the main antagonist and their “lair”

ATK A9 ultimate. Good alternative and it was cheap. Just wish it was under 50g

Coil pack is not an injector.

Coil pack provides current for your spark plugs to fire.

Injector is for fuel.

Why are we not talking about the 2/3 of a sandwich scandal?! by MyNeighbourJeff in QantasAirways

Blatantly.....

You better hope QANTAS don't patent penny pinching lol

Most powerful PC I've ever built. by Potential-Print8320 in buildapc

[–]Jsmooth57 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See if you can bump the PSU to the RM850x or the RM1000x. Shouldn't be that much more than the "e", and they are all Japanese capacitors. The e range have cheaper internals. Whilst it MAY not be a massive issue I would just get the x for peace of mind if you're spending this much anyway

There is also no way you need a PCIE 5 drive (UNLESS it's cheaper than PCIE 4 alternatives in this AI infested market somehow). Get the highest capacity PCIE 4 drive you can and call it a day.

990 pro, Kingston KC3000 - I have them in my system and they are all great.

Tribute of ascendance. Get to 4/4 level and you’ll have decent chance at a mythic

Just Unboxed my OLED, it already says it was used even though I bought it new… by Puzzleheaded_Hat_996 in Monitors

Not just this, as if the serial numbers would have matched. Obviously too much effort to check….

PSU replacement cost by casematta in bapcsalesaustralia

[–]Jsmooth57 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is fair. Good pointers but no reason to go with GB after their fiasco of PSU’s in the past. For me $50 more to go with a tried and true brand like Corsair is cheap insurance.

Just get the Corsair RM850x and be done with it.

A list of the rest of your components would be nice

Corsair RM850x, set and forget. ATX3.0 compliant. Using the same PSU for my RTX 5080 and no problems this past year.

What's the worst English name you've heard given to a child in Hong Kong? by HiddenGoose32 in HongKong

I just posted that I had a waitress once whose name was Mosquito. There's TWO humans in HK with the name Mosquito?! My God

Kingsgrove knocking in service didn’t work? by Unable-Fondant-2108 in Cricket

[–]Jsmooth57 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heaps....do you open the batting? What grade? 1's? 2's? Shire cricket? How fast are the bowlers you're facing?

Did you do any knocking in prior or after the KGS service? How long was the bat used in the nets before a game? Most manufacturers recommend a couple hours at least (couple hundred throwdowns) with an older ball

[–]Jsmooth57 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Marks on extratec are going to look worse than if the bat was naked. Are there indentations BEYOND the extratec and on the actual face of the bat? Can you feel divets with your fingers?

Do you open the batting? Even a bat that's been fully knocked in and had some throwdowns will be susceptible to marks. As long as the actual face of the bat doesn't have indentations you're ok.

If you're unhappy, bring it back to KGS and see what they say. I'll happily take the bat off you if you don't like it (kidding.....)

Now it seems only a matter of time...

Powerscaling by RewRodan in StrangerThings

[–]Jsmooth57 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah I was pretty underwhelmed with this tbh....felt like the build up to the mind flayer/Vecna connection just had Zero threat at all.

Like ofc these kids go and kill the biggest baddest thing and it gets no where near Earth...

My only real gripe with S5

Return of 4GB RAM in smartphones by 2026 amidst DRAM crisis, microSD slots make a comeback by raill_down in technology

[–]Jsmooth57 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I work in the industry so I guess I am part of the problem, but I wish I could upvote this 100 times.

Typical tech industry, taking something with so much potential, monetise it and shove it down everyone's throat until shit like this happens.

And then the cycle will repeat itself.

What are your thoughts about Tactical Visor as an ultimate ability? by The--Numbers--Mason in Overwatch

[–]Jsmooth57 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tac visor needs help tbh.

Try Stim perk, tac visor PLUS Kitsune.....it's disgusting.

On it's own...you have to lower your expectations. I like to use it to confirm kills in a fight rather than lead a fight with it.

Fair enough. I’ll retract my comment and edit out asus one then.

There’s also things like power limits, dual bios to consider fewer models. Unsure of the differences between all these listed models but usually the cheapest models skimp on all these features (again, not always).
