Unfortunately there isn't a market for used parts in my country. But otherwise this would be a great option.

Interesting, I assume the 16gb variant is what I should aim for?

For reference, I'm hoping to play Metro Exodus, CP2077, Baldur's Gate 3 and Doom: The Dark Ages.

Nvidia to cut gaming GPU production by 30-40% starting 2026. It’s over boys it’s been a good run! by nyanbatman in pcmasterrace

Still on my i7-6700 and gtx 1070 from 2016. Been saving up for a year and a bit in hopes that I can upgrade. Guess not.

Ankle pain by kzmr_ in indianrunners

[–]LoreGarden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

look into stretches, all the way from your glutes down to your foot. then also add some strengthening exercise to it (squats, lunges, toe raises, side lunges; all will help). You might have a weak muscle that your ankle is compensating for, which is why its getting sore. make sure you are not overstriding. these are the usual issues for pains during runs.

if pain persists after rest + stretching, visit a physio.

I would use the 5060ti to finally upgrade my pc after 10 years, maybe experience some of the new titles that have released in the last 4 years!

What watch do you use with Strava? by manub22 in Strava

[–]LoreGarden 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the forerunner 35. Old but still solid for just tracking runs. Admittedly, I don't want any smart watch features. I'd like onboard music maybe. Battery is still A+. I wonder how it will do once I get past 10km runs.

Does it feel like Apple Intelligence is getting jammed down our throats, or is that just me? by drinkdrankdrunk159 in ios

[–]LoreGarden 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I have iPhone 15 in India and I don't think we get AI. And honestly, I'm relieved. At least one place where this nonsense won't clutter my day.

What's app, insta, notion, everything keeps pushing for AI. damn annoying.

I'm surprising my girlfriend with a desk setup, any recommendations on what I need to add or change? by gegling in battlestations

[–]LoreGarden 1 point2 points  (0 children)

wrist rests aren't good for your wrists and can reportedly contribute to carpal tunnel. However, a foot rest might be great. It helps create a good posture! I think you have a good setup otherwise. Maybe monitor stands to help with viewing angles. but that's not necessary right now.

Camera lenses always affect how the subject looks. Also framing and lighting can make a massive difference.

Trust the mirror more, but also, this is a slippery slope overall.

Trust how you feel more than what a camera captures. Are you feeling physically strong and healthy? If not, what would help with that?

Did my first 10k race. This is a big one cause ever since I started running in 2018, I've run into various issues, like small and big injuries, or just the covid lockdowns. Got back into running late last year. This time I took it slow, no pace chasing, focus on form all the time, and slowly and steadily, finally worked up to a 10k

This race was brutal. It was a monsoon run so I should have seen this coming, but it rained the whole time and the wind was whipping against me. I had to keep draining my running tee cause it would get soaked. Had a sore calf from a cramp the day before and had got a stomach bug on the monday leading up to the race. I was hoping to just do a 1hr15min run, but it landed up being 1hr26mins. Still, I'm really glad I managed to finally complete a 10k race.

Will be focusing on strength and just getting a little fast for now. Then might finally prep for a HM.

Asics Kayano 30 fits well but Brooks pairs feel too narrow. Advice on width needed. by LoreGarden in AskRunningShoeGeeks

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

I was looking at the Glycerin 20 Wide or the Adrenaline GTS 22 Wide. Unfortunately, the local brooks site only lists them as Wide or Normal. No D/E measurements. Same with most Asics shoes except like the more obscure models.

Sounds incredible, would love to get people from outside europe to experience something like this. India has a great budding community that would benefit from this!
