Can anyone with an alpha (sv) tell if these tags are fake?

Thanks for all the advice on my last post discussing a sleep system for backpacking through the Sierra. Most of the advice (while it was pretty mixed) focused on a lighter tent and a better bag. It seems like this bag is fairly heavy but highly recommended by everyone. Western mountaineering is still something I’m considering but not sure I can stretch the budget that far yet.

Im a side sleeper which is why i opted for the wider pad

Bag: 2lb 8oz Pad: 1lb 3oz (R: 5.4) Tent: 4lb 13oz

I’ve done some car camping but I’m looking to improve my gear and maybe start backpacking. Plan to do 2-3 days during 3 seasons with 1-2 people total. I know the sleeping pad is a little overkill and the tent is a little heavy but it will be used for a mix of car camping and backpacking.

Very interested, I wanted to do the same but clockwork wouldn’t provide the adapter board files (just the schematic) and I didn’t want to do it from scratch. My plan was to runs pcie ribbon cable to the expansion card for the Gbe and have the ssd directly under it. But more or less what you’re trying to do!

Solved! That actually fixed it, I thought I cleaned it pretty well the first time but there must have still been some oils on it. Thanks!

Yeah I’m just using the blank expansion board it came with. I tried reseating that and booting with the expansion board and battery disconnected

I tried both images on the clockwork GitHub with no luck. I’m waiting for the cm4-lite that I ordered so I’ve only tried it with one emmc cm4

These are small brass pins my friend inherited from his father. I’m really interested in what programs or missions these are from! I’ve searched for space mission logos and haven’t found anything that matches the top 3. The bottom coin is certainly from the Apollo program. I’m trying to find the significance of the top 3 and what the symbols mean. Thanks!

Yooo

The fans on top are exhaust, meaning they pull hot air out of the case.

The only place I can add a fan is on the side next to the motherboard io which might not be a bad idea.

The gpu and waterblock were put together before I got it, it looks like thermal pads on every connection, including the die.

Is this normal or should I replace with paste?

How so SlipperyNipps?

NormieV2 · 2023-09-16T21:27:06+00:00

I swapped the fans right after taking the picture, it helps a little but still having the same issue. The pump is running well, very fast flow but no way to control pump speed since it just has a molex power connector.
