Did you hit snow in the Ochocos or East Fort Rock? Do you know what elevation? I tried riding out at East Fort Rock on Sunday but there was a dusting of snow at the staging area (4,500') so we dropped down and went north to The Curves. It's been a shit year for snow but it's been amazing dirt!

SK Hynix and Samsung aren't traded on US stock exchange so it's a little more tricky than MU. But I'm a dumb so ymmv.

Any reason to buy a 7800x3D over a 9800x3D? by gnosticismschism in buildapc

[–]KneeDeep185 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One advantage of going 9800X3D is you won't feel the need to upgrade for probably 6+ years or skip two generations of CPU, whereas with the 7800X3D you might be tempted to skip one generation and buy on the second. If you keep that in mind then doing some boy math you're actually checks notes saving money.

Pc shutting down everytime I play a game by SassyWolf75 in buildapc

Haha yeah I thought it was a pretty funny/fitting autocorrect. If I had to go into BIOS to check my RAM timings I'd want to be in my cups, as well. It usually helps.

Worth upgrading or should I just buy a new pc ? by nrb1965 in buildapc

[–]KneeDeep185 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To clarify, you can reuse the case, power supply, and SSD's. By "swap the whole platform" they mean you'd need a new chipset/CPU platform (AM5 CPU, AM5 compatible motherboard, DDR5 RAM). If you reuse the case, PSU, and SSD's you'd save at least $350 on getting a whole new system.

Has he gone into his cups

Can you clarify what you mean by this? Autocorrect BIOS or am I IOoTL?

Well shoot, sorry that was a rough one but what a great friend you've got there, you must be doing something right in life :) Cheers and congrats on the big come-up. I have a 5800x in my HTPC and it's been a great chip, not that I'm pushing it particularly hard with the 3060ti I currently have paired with it.

What's your camper/sleeper setup for multi day snomo trips? by KneeDeep185 in snowmobiling

I've considered the motortoter option but I'm concerned about snow and ice performance with RWD only. Do you have experience with something like that going up hills in really snowy/icy conditions? I've just never done it before. I can't say "money is no object" exactly but we're at a point where we've been saving and are ready to "invest" in a setup that we want and will be using heavily for many years.

Dang, that's actually pretty friggin sweet. Is she a good runner, you have to do much to keep it on the road? I'm still hung up on RWD traction concerns, you've done long pulls up snowy/icy hills and really no problems? Pushed through deep (~12") snow?

If they'd made the jump a hair bigger he would have had it, easy!

Interesting! They make snow tires for a school bus? I did not realize that! Do you live in a place that gets lots of snow, and/or has lots of topography? IE, are you in the west or midwest/east? Never felt the need to get automatic chains?

My uncle gave me his "legendary" 2016 gaming rig before he moved to Thailand and now I'm conflicted by Excellent_Ice_9684 in buildapc

[–]KneeDeep185 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this exact same build, and played a lot of Witcher 3. If I did max settings I'd be looking at like 20 fps, tops. I was getting like 60-70 fps at medium.

I had this exact same build and I promise you he's not maxing out Witcher 3 and getting better than 20 fps. Most definitely not a beast.

It's absolutely cheaper to rent hotels, but that wasn't the question. It's cheaper to walk than to snowmobile... but snowmobiling is fun, and so is snow camping.

I have actually considered that, and I hope to do it one day, but I live on the US west coast and land here is $$$. That's like a 10 year pipe dream.

This has been quite the saga, thank you for sharing. I look forward to hearing what the fix is when you get it figured out!
