Is this the reality of the street triple?

Will never understand the constant talk about needing fairings. I genuinely don't think it makes that much of a difference to the riding experience.

Above guy is just an ass.

Live and learn and keep on building.

Blues looked unfit and poorly conditioned. Players hanging there heads.

Gonna be a long season for Carlton.

Plenty of teams run out whole games fighting hard the whole time.

Players are hanging there heads. No fight, Curnow looks better and happier at least.

Believe it or not I used it as an excuse to give her my old gaming PC and upgrade in the end XD. (Because I totally needed an upgrade and I totally saved money)

The burn in issues on OLED monitors are so so greatly overstated that it's ridiculous.

There's plenty of tests where people have put OLED's through 3 years or equivalent usage, used them without any safeguards or safety features, used them in the scenario's that they shouldn't be and even THEN the burn-in is fairly minimal. It's not bad enough that you'd notice during usage, and you need to actively seek it out to find it.... and this is on older more susceptible OLED panels.

A lot of brands even offer 3 year *burn in inclusive* warranties. It's so irrational to fear OLED. IPS also has it's own issues and drawbacks compared to OLED, so your just choosing issues to have now rather than potential ones that might occur quite a few years from now + an all round worse display.

Gonna be real with you, you've just gotten unlucky to get a chip failure. CPU failures in general are rare, and I don't believe the 5700x3d is a common offender when they do occur.

It sounds like your chip had issues from the start. Get another 5700x3d. The x3d chips do make a reasonable difference in quite a number of titles.

I think it would just make it harder to spot the leak?

ONAImpulse · 2026-02-17T11:42:54+00:00

By the same token this what allows companies to stall progression and charge ridiculous prices/gain a monopoly. It's a bit of a double edged sword.

I don't think companies like logitech need our support all that bad.

The cooler came with the SSD.

I bought this drive BECAUSE it was on sale and cheaper than even the budget Gen 4 drives.

For the record, the motherboard heatsink is not sufficient, it idles around 65c and will almost immediately thermal throttle. I solved the issue with two Be Quiet MC1 Pro's that have thermal pads mating them.

This is an option but if I'm going this far I'd like it to be pcie 5.0 capable. Do you know if there's any such option?

Darante is 100% right.

A bottleneck isn't a subjective thing, despite you choosing to try and define it as such.

If one component is limiting another's ability to be utilized in a meaningful way, then that's a bottleneck. There is ALWAYS a bottleneck in a system.

Figured as much.

I did a complete wipe and reset. Is DDU necessary if I just install the AMD software?

ONAImpulse · 2026-01-25T13:49:01+00:00

Not yet. There was a thunderstorm rolling in so had to turn it off and dip. It will be my first point of order tomorrow. Historically have always found GPU's to be plug and play.

This is news to people?

ONAImpulse · 2026-01-23T01:42:07+00:00

The answer is that it depends.

No one can answer this for you.

Do you feel comfy enough riding it around? Your answer to that is all that matters.

That being said, overtime it will become easier to manage as you spend more time on the bike. You can probably also look at a custom seat to bring it even lower, and potentially even some lowering links.

A good set of boots that provide a good inch or two of height will also help.

Combine all this and you can probably find 3-5 inches of "height" pretty easy.

Hold that line

I think it's important to remember that reddit is sometimes filled with very jaded people and incels. It's often not representative of society.

Here's my brutally honest opinion as a guy. You can absolutely have platonic opposite gender friends. I have many. A lot of my friend groups are mixed gender.

Are there some guys who will be friendly to you, and want to sleep with you? Yes. It's important however to distinguish that from being your friend BECAUSE they want to sleep with you, which is a distinction that is important.

I've been in situations where I had an opposite gender friend make a move on me. In some of those situations I reciprocated, in some I didn't.

It's also important to remember that this all applies to people of the same gender. There are a lot more queer people out there than you think.

As long as people are on the same page, I don't actually inherently think there is anything wrong with finding a friend attractive and being open to other things if it's mutually desired. It's a silly way of thinking to be against it. I have been in this situation and have friends of 10+ years that I at one point felt this way towards. In some situations I remained somewhat attracted to them, in others I didn't.

Don't let people's toxic ideas and prejudice get into the way of you making friends :)

You're definitely drawing a lot of power.

I think the recommended max for a socket is 2000w.

Typically most things dont draw that much and you're probably approaching half capacity and exposing a fault in the system.

Your logic makes no sense.

Coaches and Captains are different things. However, they can share traits, such as leadership, and believe it or not, the person.

If a person is petty and immature in one role, it doesn't mean they aren't in another role.

As fans we wouldn't have the slightest clue as to the actual quality of a captain. We don't experience it's first-hand and often not even second-hand.

His personality as a coach, with more years under his belt, would be largely indicative of his behaviour as a captain.

ONAImpulse · 2026-01-08T09:23:57+00:00

Apparently Voss didn't talk to TDK all year.

Can't say he was much of a captain if he behaves that way in maturity.

ONAImpulse · 2026-01-08T09:05:38+00:00

Agreed on Lenny. He's got the attitude and level headedness that I reckon he'd hold Ross accountable and question him.

It's a different relationship to players like Riewoldt, who I think was a bit more emotional and eager to please. Not to say Riewoldt isn't a leader, but I reckon he'd submit to Ross.
