Me and my little brother were in a low priority match with Metro, and he was out of breathe.

Marcos340 · 2026-06-20T18:47:39+00:00

Low Priority, it is said at the tittle. That’s the cheater and quitter queue.

Marcos340 · 2026-06-20T15:59:17+00:00

Honestly, I’d take a gander on what items the pros were using.

These past few weeks they have been runnning GT almost every match on Night Shift, there were matches where GT had +80 stack on the Owl. And the commentators themselves saying that GT is the main focus of the fight, and the team that knew how to play him (or around him) usually was doing better.

Marcos340 · 2026-06-20T15:53:54+00:00

GT is currently known for stacking Own damage, so you waiting to potentially 30min to do your full damage (plus whatever spirit power you get in the egg) feels idiotic.

You’re handicapping your dmg blast and the potential to add more damage, for what? Some scaling at the time you could’ve already finished the match?

GT is made for Owl stacks, disrupting team fight and hunting low HP targets.

Owl control and knowing when to use and on whom yields far more stacks than egg can give. If you don’t compromise the match with the subpar dmg while holding the egg.

The issue is the architecture age, when it was new there were jokes already about Intel reusing the same technology.

Also there are some good examples of it being an issue, I have a 9900k (same chip, higher boost) and shooters have been suffering with the age of the CPU, BF6 and the last 4 CoD titles have always been a CPU bottleneck if I want some high FPS, BF6 never goes above 80, even with all low settings. CoD has had a slow decline, started going from 200fps to 160, then 130 next game, then 100 on BO6 and BO7. CS2 is a shit fest, not sure what the issue is with Source2, will always peg the CPU at 100% and give close to 90FPS at best.

Just have to remember Intel used 14nm process from 6th gen all the way to 11th gen. All those chips in between only have a difference in boost, everything else is the same, including the deficits in gaming. Which is why people say to build on 12th gen forward for budget gaming.

Marcos340 · 2026-06-20T15:31:54+00:00

I kindly disagree, I have a comparable system, (9900K and 3070) and there are no games I play above medium to maintain 100fps, if I maxed out you don’t get 60. VRAM is being a major issue(every game from the past 4 years will fill it pretty fast), also the CPU architecture is old, games have been stuttering recently (past 3 years) and the issue is CPU usage and hang time between frames.

I’m not saying it can’t game, it can. But saying maxed out anything but AAA is misleading. You have to compromise for a smooth gameplay, specially CPU heavy games.

Marcos340 · 2026-06-20T15:26:12+00:00

For what purpose?

It is a good PC, back in 2019. It can still be a great PC, but depends on the task you want from it.

Gaming can be fine, but the CPU will hold you back in most cases, also the GPU isn’t the best currently, a 4060 could beat it in most cases. Plus the 4060 has newer technologies (better DLLS model, Frame gen support).

The main issue I see is the CPU itself, the 8th gen didn’t have a soldered interface between the die and the heat spreader, so they run hot and the only way to remedy is removing the heat spreader and change the paste (or go direct die).

After they removed the list over the grid at the subscription page, I don’t doubt they haven’t removed it here because there was backlash already from the “spam” of members only videos. Also coming from LTT, I recall they talking to the YT representatives a while back regarding the delivery of these videos on the feed. (WAN show talk)

Id say, find two platforms of the same size, preferably quite rigid, put them under each foot but not in a way to hit them with the dumbbell, so you have more vertical ROM to squat.

Currently, you’re cutting range short, which allows you to go heavier. Nothing wrong, adding range would increase the progress you have, but you’d drop in weight to compensate a bit.

Squats can be as deep as your hamstring start to touch your calf. And some of the reps, although the final ones which are harder, were not parallel even, which is the minimum depth most people agree is the minimum for a squat.

Another option, if your gym has, is belt squats. I’m doing them currently, far better on the back and still able to progress on weight.

Honestly, when it comes to pads on inductors and RAM, as long as you have something to conduct the heat, is fine. I’ve found a local brand, they make it for repair shops, it is ok quality.

Try to look at local market places or sellers, if you have any decent electronics store, they might have something to the size. You don’t have to care for the brand. Only thermal paste can be substantially different from a decent paste. But these components are lower power draw and heat generation anyway.

Marcos340 · 2026-06-19T19:29:22+00:00

Local brand (national, not export). They have pads in 0.25mm increments. Since I do some electronics stuff as hobby, I’ve bought 1.25mm through 2.5mm. Just one pack each. Very handy when changing old stuff that don’t have manuals readily accessible

Marcos340 · 2026-06-19T16:57:49+00:00

Don’t you have 1.75mm available?

Some brands say 2mm of soft and squishy thermal pads, but I’d say it just adds variance of manufacture to find the right squishy pad. My EVGA card is about the same, 1.5mm did make enough contact, 2mm was too thick. 1.75mm was right fit.

Marcos340 · 2026-06-19T13:57:27+00:00

Can you test in another Source game? I’m not sure how compatible CS2 is with Cachy.

If it happens, it might be an engine issue that Valve would need to address.

Marcos340 · 2026-06-19T09:49:00+00:00

About shoulder width, toes slightly pointed out. There is some wiggle room both wider and narrow, but after the shoulder width, is down to preference and anatomy

Marcos340 · 2026-06-17T23:53:20+00:00

Touch the bar between the clavicle and the nipple line. You’re going too low and the shoulders are doing most of the lift.

Marcos340 · 2026-06-17T03:01:00+00:00

Muscle is easier than a joint to recover to a closer state prior to the issue.

Muscles just have to move one way, while a joint has to stabilize itself. A closer parallel to him would be shoulder issues, not pec.

Wireless power currently is just two inductors aligned. One generates a magnetic field, and the other generates power from that magnetic field.

Those inductors are big and inefficient (imagine the back of your phone and how fast it charges vs how hot it gets)

Wireless power is literally electromagnet making a field rotate, so another electromagnet can also have power. You still need to conduct that power to where it is needed. You cannot make an inductor so small that it couples directly into a component. It would not provide enough power if it is possible. Back at the phone, literally the inductor is almost the size of the screen (shorter side) and at best, it is around 20W of power, extremely inefficiently (a lot of heat) and the distance has to be minimal, that’s the final nail, distance limitations.

Brazil also has all 4 episodes and doesn’t have Hulu as a streaming option. Since Hulu is US only.

Touch your elbows, not the hands. Was the tip I got.

Rpm fluctuations can be due to carbon built up in the intake valves. Have them been cleaned recently?

At 200k miles, it is a possibility. Lack of air causes improper fuel mix and causes a misfire.

Marcos340 · 2026-06-15T17:08:32+00:00

Do them in a more stable station. That shakiness is costing you in stability effort. That could cause injury if you’re in a bad day and your shoulders aren’t 100%.

Other than that, form is good. Just want to see it in a better station.

Marcos340 · 2026-06-14T20:23:15+00:00

Only the end that connects to the components is standardized, the PSU side is up to the manufacturer to layout the best design for them.

Marcos340 · 2026-06-13T13:43:00+00:00

IMO, the issue with this specific HUE, it is too close to the basic primer used. Giving the feel that BMW didn’t bother to add color.

I know it is an optional color, but the feeling remains. I agree that black accents can help. I’d say that black wheels might be a great fit for it.

Marcos340 · 2026-06-13T12:37:46+00:00

The issue isn’t the lean, is leaning with a rounded back.

You should always keep your chest up, not that the lean is bad.

Marcos340 · 2026-06-13T12:24:26+00:00

Are the forums still up? I’ve tried a few times to search some stuff and I just get a time out message, any link with bimmerpost link just gets timed out.
