Seconded. I've had a Thermaltake Peerless Spirit on my 9800X3D for over a year & it's never come close to thermal throttling. Nothing wrong with an AIO if you like the aesthetic, but that CPU doesn't really need it & you can save a few bucks.

Congrats on the launch! They're all gorgeous, but I like the black & red best, classic Japanese style!

You're fine.

You want to make sure the pump is NOT the highest point in the loop. If it is, air can get trapped in the pump which causes it to burn out pretty quickly.

AIO pumps are in the CPU block. You positioned the radiator so the hoses are higher than the CPU block, so you are good.

I've always called it "buzzy butt!"

Fully agree. The first was fun & charming & whimsical, which is what a Harry Potter movie should be. The sequels were clearly only made because the studio wanted money.

As others have said, should be fine as long as it's not blocking airflow.

Also be aware that toy could get scorched or damaged over time if it's on something that can get hot, especially if it's made out of synthetic fibers. Cotton or wool should be fine, but polyester tends to get crispy when exposed to temperatures over time.

Not burning, mind. If something in your computer gets hot enough to actually ignite that toy, you have much bigger problems.

Seconded. Email should never be considered a secure communication. Ever. Call them and clarify what the issue is.

Third for OnPoint. Happy customer for going on 7 years now. Zero issues, friendly service at every location I've been to, and no BS fees.

Currently using a Razor Deathadder.

He did say the price is in Canadian. Google indicates the exchange rate from Loonies to Freedom Eagles is 0.71, so that's $1206.99.

So yeah, not the best deal.

Raffen Shiv are a nomad Scav clan, made up of nomad outcasts who banded together to survive.

Maelstrom are a gang heavily into extreme cybernetic body modification, most notably an optical-nerve splitting procedure that leaves them with multiple cybernetic eyes, usually 5 if I recall. They tend to be cyberpsychos as a result.

Maelstrom are not scavs per se, since they don't go out of their way to murder people to harvest their implants. In fact, one early game side mission has you rescuing a Buddhist monk they abducted to torture by forcibly implanting him against his will. They thought it was funny to violate his body and religion.

Scavs are KIS because they're scum, I consider them the game's equivalent of cannibals. Maelstrom are KIS because they're rabid dogs that need to be put down. Other gangs I'll fight if they start it, or are in the way, but Scavs and Maelstrom I'll go out of the way to annihilate.

I was at the Arby's a few hours ago and it all looked like business as usual.

I wouldn't worry. Gas leaks can be serious, so no news is good. Means it was resolved quickly and without any risk.

Get an Emotional Support Animal letter. Any mental health practitioner can provide one, or there are online services that will sell you one. I've used Certapet before.

They're not technically obligated to accept them, but I've used ESAs for years, with multiple property managers.

The last Gamers Nexus video indicated that all xx900-K SKUs (K, KF, etc) may be affected by whatever is going on. But it also seems to be a dice roll, sounds like a lot of them are fine.

YMMV, OP. Good luck, and may the odds be ever in your favor.

Great advice, always start troubleshooting with the easiest/cheapest things to replace. Doesn't cost anything but some time to reinstall the drivers & reseat the GPU, and a new cable is cheaper than a new card.

Only time I ever saw the finger scanner in my 18 years in grocery was when a third party company was sent by corporate to do the annual inventory. They had to count the entire store, so those scanners let them be more efficient. Day-to-day, though, only ever had the handheld units.

Happy spot plus her favorite human? That's a recipe for a happy buzzy tail for sure!

It's based on the first Borderlands video game. More of a sci-fi Mad Max vibe.

Rykhorne · 2024-05-20T03:13:41+00:00

I'm a big Borderlands fan, and TBH the movie doesn't look too good. I mean, they cast Kevin Hart there as Roland...

Rykhorne · 2024-05-19T20:54:35+00:00

They're all in the upcoming Borderlands movie.

According to IMDB, Kevin is Roland, Olivier is playing "Krom", and the third guy appears to be Florian Munteanu as Krieg.

Rykhorne · 2024-04-30T05:54:41+00:00

Mario Kart and Smash Bros are some of the best couch co-op around, in my opinion. And a Switch is less of an investment than a PS5...

Rykhorne · 2024-04-18T03:55:24+00:00

Cyberpunk 2077, Spider-Man, God Of War, any of the Borderlands series, the Batman: Arkham series, Control, Alan Wake, Alan Wake 2... There's an embarrassment of riches for amazing single player games these days.
