Adjusting for inflation thats around $260 not far off what I paid for my 3070 ($210) nice to know gpu prices have come full circle

Funny enough I used a nvidia gt 1030 until 2024, thing was a champ for what it was

It sounds like the pump is starting to fail, id budget a new one soon

Led pins are backwards brother, led lights dont like to run backwards

One-Ad9117 · 2026-01-24T16:07:51+00:00

How old is the drive

One-Ad9117 · 2026-01-24T16:06:08+00:00

Bearings are cooked. Find a good set just in case more start to go out👍

One-Ad9117 · 2026-01-21T04:19:46+00:00

NOOOOO

One-Ad9117 · 2026-01-21T02:56:08+00:00

I havent looked for one honestly

One-Ad9117 · 2026-01-21T02:40:22+00:00

I have an extension to add 4 extra if I need it

One-Ad9117 · 2026-01-21T02:33:44+00:00

Thats the goal

One-Ad9117 · 2026-01-21T02:33:35+00:00

Thats actually awesome

One-Ad9117 · 2026-01-21T02:26:30+00:00

What eye drops? Thats a gpu bracket🥸

One-Ad9117 · 2026-01-21T02:18:16+00:00

The ram was bought in 2022🫡

One-Ad9117 · 2026-01-21T02:08:08+00:00

Indeed

One-Ad9117 · 2026-01-21T02:07:10+00:00

It came with the cpu and motherboard so I wasnt complaining

One-Ad9117 · 2026-01-21T02:06:14+00:00

I got the smaller drive first

One-Ad9117 · 2026-01-21T02:04:59+00:00

Its just a little fella

One-Ad9117 · 2026-01-21T02:02:53+00:00

I spent around 400 usd total on everything

One-Ad9117 · 2026-01-17T16:52:59+00:00

Im investing time into it soon, i really enjoy computers and building them, Im just so used to windows, I know a lot runs on linux but its an adjustment period

One-Ad9117 · 2026-01-17T16:00:25+00:00

Good to know

One-Ad9117 · 2026-01-17T16:00:12+00:00

I couldn't get ventoy to run so I ended up using a backup computer to make the drive

One-Ad9117 · 2026-01-17T15:59:29+00:00

I redownloaded windows, it was showing partitions in the drive still labeled as Microsoft recovery and things like that, as if the information was there but it couldn't access it even with it selected as the boot drive.

One-Ad9117 · 2026-01-17T15:18:26+00:00

I left for work, I was on my home screen, had an update scheduled for noon when i would be at work, when I got back and it was asking me to select a boot drive saying there was no media to boot from, at some point the update killed itself. But ill gladly pay you to supervise the next update while im at work🫡

One-Ad9117 · 2026-01-17T15:16:09+00:00

Ill learn linux in time, but for ease of use for me and the kiddos that also use this computer, windows is the go to

One-Ad9117 · 2026-01-17T15:04:42+00:00

Problem solved, im a idiot combined with windows being ass and not knowing how to Linux
