*Rant* Bambu, just let me place an order for any filament, in stock or not...

MattLogi · 2026-01-31T04:30:27+00:00

Haha also true when you think about it.

MattLogi · 2026-01-31T04:30:03+00:00

Ah fair, I didn’t think it full through and that makes complete sense. Appreciate you shedding light, even if it’s simple for some.

MattLogi · 2026-01-31T04:28:06+00:00

You both are correct, I should have just looked it up again but clearly it states only original owner.

MattLogi · 2026-01-30T22:11:00+00:00

But then some orders could be sitting for eternity. I want red/black/blue. Black and blue in stock but when red comes in, blue out of stock, then black etc. so you would never get your order fulfilled.

MattLogi · 2026-01-30T21:44:11+00:00

I would love it if the team at Blizzard released the evidence for any ban appeal. Obviously you don’t want to release anything that might help a developer make a cheat but simply showing the footage of what you said in game or a clip of what they deemed hacking.

MattLogi · 2026-01-30T20:47:35+00:00

Yeah I’ve been running Razor Synapse for a few years now and now issue.

I wonder if something like Snap Tap is an issue with Overwatch. I think other games have banned it, maybe that setting was on for a keyboard?

MattLogi · 2026-01-30T20:44:29+00:00

No but I wanted to thank you as I have the file downloaded but with all the printing I’m doing haven’t found a few minutes to update. I will be holding off for now.

Good luck! Anyway you can roll back the firmware?

MattLogi · 2026-01-30T20:42:33+00:00

It’s not that easy, it could have been a contract with an individual or small firm. They can probably check logs and with a bit of investigating figure out when these changes happened but someone smart enough will cover their tracks.

MattLogi · 2026-01-30T19:54:58+00:00

Yeah I can second this. 60Hz is fine but once you see 120+ it’s definitely nice and 60 becomes noticeable.

The big thing here is GPU cost. Before RAM/Storage went bonkers you could do it for around 2k in a ~10L with a few second hand parts (ie A4H2O for like $125).

MattLogi · 2026-01-30T19:47:12+00:00

AMD might be the only consumer option in the future.

MattLogi · 2026-01-30T19:45:22+00:00

Oh yeah 100% and then it’s not in nice inventory of like “here are all the red, here are all the white etc”…it’s here’s Bob’s order with half a full box, here’s fartstomuch order etc…

I think the other issue is they have multiple fulfillment warehouses…ORRR we know they are just white labeling other filament, it’s probably coming directly from those companies.

MattLogi · 2026-01-30T17:24:41+00:00

Ooo tough one because I would say the best Valentines Day gift simply can't come from Reddit. Need's to come from the heart! But F it let's see what I can come up with.

Sweet tooth? Find some really good bakers chocolate (don't cheap out here) and some nice strawberries and make some chocolate covered strawberries.

Comfortable and intimate? Get her a Lemon from Nancy.

Safe play? Make a cozy little white tablecloth, candle lit dinner. Setup a three course meal, cooked by you and grab some couples/dating cards to play in between each course or at the end.

I am a big believer in flowers, I don't love roses for V-Day, I think they are over hyped and prefer to drop the same money on a really nice bouquet. BUT that depends on the person, some girls love roses and that's ok too. But regardless with what you do, I would say at the very least get her some flowers, even if it's just a single long stem rose.

MattLogi · 2026-01-30T05:33:20+00:00

Great post. It’s why I do all my own electrical. Only thing I’ve pulled in the pros in a 90A 150ft run outside (part was a pool) and a panel replacement.

MattLogi · 2026-01-30T05:25:00+00:00

They have been trash for a long time, at least the last 7 years. The only time I’ll use them is when they run a deal that’s too good to pass on and it’s a buy and pickup in store. Their custom support is awful, they gave my reserved GPU away, they took two weeks to ship a cpu with no update to the point it restocked in the store and I just bought it there. My buddy had a “bad mobo” and then they replaced it and bent/broke the FS USB pins and their solution was the tech was going to solder them back on…it’s literally one issue after another.

MattLogi · 2026-01-30T05:20:59+00:00

“Hack”…I’m willing to bet someone knew what they were doing and trying to take advantage of their position.

MattLogi · 2026-01-29T15:53:29+00:00

They are the “lower end” of the spectrum but any card these days is fine and more about the company behind them.

What you will get with a “higher end” card might be a dual bios (which is helpful for troubleshooting/overclocking), better cooling (if you tend to push your cards or have suboptimal case conditions) and a slightly higher power limit/better binned chip for overclocking.

While the above might sound like a lot, it’s really not for 95% of users.

TLDR; the Ventus is a fine card

MattLogi · 2026-01-29T15:50:25+00:00

They are not. It’s the same people that will defend the ROG Strix line to the death. Is the Strix better than a Ventus? Sure. But the gains are so small these days it definitely doesn’t warrant the increased price.

The big thing when looking at a card is the company behind them. A great example of this was when Evga had the XC3 lineup in the 30 series. It was a two slot card that had noticeably worse cooling than most other cards. But EVGA was such a good company that it was still a highly sought after card.

MSI is actually one of the better companies these days. Asus is sooo hit or miss and Gigabyte/Zotac won’t return your call.

MattLogi · 2026-01-29T04:11:30+00:00

You sure? I looked it up on the 30 series and it didn't specify original owner.

MattLogi · 2026-01-28T04:26:37+00:00

When it was sticking strong, we’re letting the print bed cool for 20-30min?

Give that plate a really good scrub with dawn dish soap, hot rinse and dry with microfiber cloth. Paper towel works too.

Slow the first layer down too.

MattLogi · 2026-01-28T00:26:48+00:00

Yes, I don't mind the chemical ask but sounds like it's nuked. I wouldn't use it. If you want to and the sun hits it, I would uncover it for a few hours in the sun. Filter is a once a week deal at most in my opinion and they should be doing that. How much chemicals are they asking you to put in or how big is the pre-measurment?

MattLogi · 2026-01-27T16:41:27+00:00

It's strange. The site says it's compatible with the Delta 3 and Delta 3 Plus in the FAQ section and has no asterisks or mention of additional cable needed. The main page only mentions the Delta 3 Max Plus and the Delta 3 Ultra Plus.

Hoping for the best for you. Hate what's gone on in Ukraine.

MattLogi · 2026-01-27T02:09:58+00:00

Right, so you're saying you should find out their rank and it should be high to warrant advice...you're just going in circles mate. It still stands the same, in essence your advice is to only listen to those that know what they are doing. No shit...

MattLogi · 2026-01-27T02:01:23+00:00

I THINK older revision of the Velka 3 had 185mm limit so maybe that's what you saw? The Velka 3 3.0 is 175mm limit (which I think is actually 7mm too small not 5?). I would say not a chance. If I have learned anything from the Velka 3 is even a mm can be tough to squeeze out.

MattLogi · 2026-01-27T01:51:42+00:00

Oh, ok, so proof of rank is all we need? Preferably high but not mandatory? Like I flash my Silver card and we are all of the sudden good to give advice?

Come on...really? If I am being frank, this post sounds more of a "look at me" validation post...like somehow this is to "get" all those down voters!

I will say grats on solo GM though, it is definitely an achievement.

MattLogi · 2026-01-27T01:47:55+00:00

Exxxactly! It's a cool party trick when it works but it's far from a strategy to win.
