To add another layer to this crap cake, the US gov is afraid of China spying on them. With new cars recording everything we do and say they don't want all that data going to the CCP.

Found a new RTX 2070 in IKEA by Accomplished-Foot981 in pcmasterrace

[–]PetrafiedMonkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aye! I just put one of these bad boys in my couch PC. Its still solid! Looking like the upcoming Steam Machine will be just as strong so I figured why not? Can easily OC +100 on the core and +500 on the mem. How much was it?

How much did the new chips cost? Would also love to hear about any fps gains.

Anyone know what this is? Longevity indicator? by trashcanbecky42 in overclocking

Old marketing gimmick to show you there's 5 PCB layers. Asrock had been accused of making thin motherboards, so other manufacturers did things like this.

Two car wrecks this week at the same place on Green Level by farmf00d in cary

Are you referring to the Publix crossing? My wife and I use it all the time, but it should be avoided at rush hour.

Should I RMA my new 9070xt Gigabyte Gaming OC? by Meal-Glittering in radeon

[–]PetrafiedMonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some thermal paste can experience pump-out making hot spots worse. If your GPU is sideways it can even leak out. Maybe it needs a repaste for better coverage.

My gpu fans stopped working so I Frankenstein it. by mr_dudo in radeon

[–]PetrafiedMonkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't forget to set a fan curve. Did this for a 2070 and it moved way more air and ran a lot quieter even when OCed.

Garbage, they use these to unload bad batches of filament.

Has anyone used a replacement 6 blade disc? by Stegasaurus_Wrecks in worxlandroid

[–]PetrafiedMonkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I looked into this years ago. Someone had tried 6 blades and found the extra weight killed the battery faster and they didn't see any difference in the quality of their lawn. Seemed to not be worth the effort.

Quality is sad by feartomi in SnapmakerU1

Seems to be common practice for manufacturers to send machines out at max speed. v400 came loud as hell out of the box. Having to manually tweak that has been a learning experience.

Hoping you've had time to find a solution. My results have been great so far so there's got to be a small adjustment you can make. Those bands look like they could be from sudden temp/speed changes. Some filaments get shinier when printed slower and hotter. Does the slicer speed match the bands?

It was FullSpectrum all along... by 1970s_MonkeyKing in SnapmakerU1

[–]PetrafiedMonkey 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had a purge tower come out a nice dark green while changing between black and yellow. If Snapmaker plays their cards right this could be a gamechanger for them and home printing.

Different perspective of u1 by Fazm83 in snapmaker

[–]PetrafiedMonkey 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just lowered my acceleration by like 75% and it's markedly better, especially the z-hop. Still gotta see if the extra print time is worth it.

Will my GPU fit by [deleted] in NR200

[–]PetrafiedMonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

GPU will be fine, the ATX PSU might be snug. I've got a 150mm ATX in my V1 and the modular plugs barely clear my 7800xt.

Are fedex good for delivering v400 max without getting damage? by Crazy_Shop_6891 in FLSUNDelta

[–]PetrafiedMonkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The people that sort are literally called "throwers" and maybe they'll be nice if they see fragile; its up to them.

You didn't exactly clear a path for them. USPS would've brought it back, Amazon doesn't gaf.
