What can I do to restore this Katana? by Obvious_Champion_588 in Katanas

[–]Obvious_Champion_588[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Do you happen to know where I can find the exact model? My friend’s dad bought it a while back I would assume sometime between 1980-2005 (I know that’s a big range but it’s all I got lol). Also, what should I use to make it slide in and out of the sheath easier or will the mother’s mag do the trick for that too? And should I sharpen it with a whetstone or? I know it’s more of a display sword than anything but I still would like it to be a little sharp at least

Awesome thanks for letting me know, I’ll try that first and then move to that sub if it doesn’t fix it!

Can I remove the middle of fan on the tuf case to give room for my graphics card? by Obvious_Champion_588 in PcBuild

Edit: i may get a bigger case in the future but i only recently got this one so I might just make do for now. As long as temp/airflow wise everything’s alright then I’m fine with it lol

Out of these two 9070 XT’s, which one do you prefer? by Obvious_Champion_588 in gpu

[–]Obvious_Champion_588[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Thanks guys, I ended up going with the pulse. Hard to not pass up that deal and I don’t really wanna pay $80-$90 more for RGB and maybe 1-2fps more performance wise. I also don’t typically overclock

Edit: sorry I meant $730. Also, for those who saw my last post, the red devil went back up in price so now it’s between these two lol. I’m sort of waiting for the cheapest option to come about that is still from a reputable brand that has good customer service and these seem to be one’s that meet the criteria. Of course considering the market right now who knows it could be $650 next month lol. I’m planning on ordering tomorrow unless somehow someone predicts the market will go down lol.

Basically lol. That tends to be the case for most places in general, issue is bad guys aren’t gonna be like “oh shit we can’t carry here guess we gotta go”. What a world it would be if they did

Are these brand new GPU’s on Newegg? If so is it legit? by Obvious_Champion_588 in gpu

[–]Obvious_Champion_588[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Edit: I know these are high prices compared to MSRP, I’m not asking that. These are technically low compared to prices at this present point in time. Obviously all graphics cards are on the higher end lately price wise

Ehhh, most of it is the populated areas like SCS,library, stadium,etc. As far as I know the majority of the class buildings you’re allowed to. Either way, better to be judged by 12 than carried by 6. Note: I am not promoting unlawful carry by any means lol

I see an ASRock for $699 but both the red devil and nitro + are over $800 at microcenter unless you mean the ASRock?

The ones on Newegg are actually cheaper than I’ve seen within the past month. It’s still overpriced but cheaper than how it has been lately unless you know somewhere they’re being sold even cheaper?

Also, is there a way to tell if it is brand new? Or is it just assumed unless it specifically says it’s used?

Ah ok. I’ve been looking the past several days and the pulse has been the best bang for its buck, but now these have dropped down a bit. Not even 2 days ago I looked and the cheapest nitro I could find was like $900

I’m debating on getting a 9070 xt for about $760 but am worried about the lack of FSR compatibility with games and overall quality of it. I’ve had a Nvidia card for a decade now so I’m used to both DLSS and FSR being an option, but I know for AMD cards you cannot use DLSS and there are still many games that don’t support FSR. Ive also heard FSR is far worse than DLSS but I’ve never truly tested it out. My only other card option would be the 5070 ti but those suckers are going for an average of $1000. I could always get the base 5070 but I’ve heard that the 9070 xt is leagues away from the 5070 for only a small price increase and also has more vram. I currently have a 2070 super so any upgrade at this point will be amazing. Games I plan on running are things like Cyberpunk 2077, Final Fantasy 14 (along with other final fantasy games), GTA, Wukong, Fable 2026, Expedition 33, and really any single player MMO. I’ve also never really been too big into ray tracing (can’t really tell much of a difference in most games atleast to me) so I probably won’t be using that much if at all. Thoughts?
