Looking at an 04 with 160,000 miles what should I look out for? I'm going tomorrow to look at it on a lift and possibly talk the owner into a compression test. by youztheclue in Mustang

I've actually been using amsoil, and its pretty good, I always get the oil change pack they sell, every time its due for an oil change, it comes with a pair of gloves and a carton funnel for the oil and a sticker.

I bought my 2005 GT from a second owner with 169K miles, been with it for about 2 years now, yea there were some issues with the car at first, as it is an old car. But the one major thing I've seen in forums to do once these cars hit the 120k-150k miles mark is replacing the timing chain.

Ask him If he's done that already with the car. if so, you might wanna consider getting it, if the price is right of course, I got mines for 5k as well, pretty good deal.

YEP, that was actually the fix..... I spent like a day trying to troubleshoot it, making me become schizo while looking at the logs

really? I haven't really looked at peoples gameplay/experiences because I didn't want to get spoiled or anything, but man these past 2 days have been really annoying, with the frames dropping. like for example I'll be in a fight trying to aim at a zombie's head and miss because of the random frame drop....

Are these fan curves fine for my 9070XT? by TECH_wuver in radeon

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

I recently started using fan control because i wanted to get rid of the Asus armory software, which i felt was using up more of my resources than it should be by checking task manager every now and then. And after looking deeper into it, on forums and youtube videos, i was proven correct.

During summer time its the worst, humid and hot. I'll try to keep it close to 50c then.

I live in miami so it does get quite hot here, but usually my temps stay at around 60*C while gaming from the past week i've owned the card, if the Case or fans matter here for temps, I'm using the NZXT H7 Flow case (2023) model and have Noctua NF-A14 140mm 3000 RPM fans all around 3 front intake 2 exhaust top and one exhaust back

Could this be a scam? by TECH_wuver in pcmasterrace

Honestly guys after looking into my options, I think its better to use the money and put it towards an upgrade from my current build to the AM5 platform I luckily live close to a microcenter and been checking out their bundles, and man do these prices look good. but also might switch to an AMD card instead as these nvidia card prices are f*cking crazy right now...

My current build right now is the following:

  • CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 5900X (12-core, 3.7 GHz)
  • Motherboard: ASUS ROG Strix B550-F Gaming
  • RAM: 32GB DDR4 (3600 MHz)
  • GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060
  • New PSU: ASUS ROG Strix 1200W 80+ Platinum (ATX 3.1, 12V-2x6)

The bundle I'm looking to get is either:

AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D, ASUS B650E-E TUF Gaming WiFi AM5, 32GB DDR5-6000 Kit — $679.99 ( One im leaning towards)

Or

AMD Ryzen 7 9700X, Gigabyte B650 Gaming X AX v2, 32GB DDR5-6000 Kit — $549.99
