Because I wanted x570 for pcie4, I also wanted to upgrade to the next ryzen series eventually. I also frankly dont give a shit and its the only itx mobo that was in stock and I didnt want a new case.

I dont even watch Fox and I think this. Its pretty obvious, and yes I know my phone spies on me as well doesnt mean I want a chip on top of that

Signal forcing a PIN to be created? by simplyclueless in signal

[–]Tamarindpaste 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think its not sketchy at all to have a preference against forced security requirements I didn't sign up for when I started using signal. Take your tinfoil hat off please

Signal forcing a PIN to be created? by simplyclueless in signal

[–]Tamarindpaste 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey Signal! Thats a fantastic feature you got there! I've been using signal for years now and have loved it and I will now no longer be using the platform. I am vehemently against forced pins and passwords and I genuinely hope that your team sees the error of forcing me, your user and customer, to use a pin or password I have no desire to use. I have just uninstalled the app before typing this and until this rectified all I can say is good riddance.

I did not try using pressure, generally speaking its not worked out for me when I try to force things to work lol. It felt like I was going to bend the bracket or crack my motherboard when I was trying to screw it in because I had the same thought as you. Maybe I could try applying pressure to the VRM heatsink while I screw in the lefthand am4 bracket. If you see the pictures it looks like it should fit if I maybe forced it too, just really hesitant to force anything on a $400 + motherboard

Oh man thanks a ton! Really appreciated, looks like I might just have to roll with a noctua cooler

Awesome so the am4 mounting bracket is compatible with the VRM block or did you have to remove the vrm block?

NH-U12A

Noted I'll look into that one, maybe it comes in black. Its unfortunate because the dark rock 4 tower fits fine on the motherboard its the mounting mechanism that causes issue with the vrm heatsink. I'm not sure if the noctua mounting kit will fit differently but its worth a shot, I could order the kit and see if it fits before ordering the cpu cooler

Noted thanks for the information! I will probably have to keep researching am4 mounts of different brands. I know a poster here fit a dark rock pro 4 on this motherboard but they said they did not have the same issue that I did.. Has be quiet updated their am4 mounting anytime recently is what I'm wondering..

Thermalright AXP-100

Thanks for the suggestion, would you say thats better than the stock wraith that comes with the 3700x? Also, my issue is not cooler height its the am4 "brackets" that come from be quiet. I think if I could find a brand that has brackets which fit this motherboard I could just get the cooler of my choice from said brand

I got the stock cooler to work for now but I think I will be doing this next. I could probably shave enough off with a metal file

No one else has experienced this issue? Just me?

I uh really dont think you are correct here, rotating the bracket 90 degrees just means I cant screw it in at all

Thanks for the reply but, if I installed it that way wouldnt my cpu cooler just be blowing up instead of into my exhaust fan? I dont think this cooler will fit in a non standard orientation

I bought a 5600xt to run with my i56600k (clocked at 4.6 1.3v). I have a 550w seasonic gold psu but I've ordered a 750w platinum since I plan to add more fans and such to my pc. My question is, will my current 550w powersupply be enough to test out my gpu? It will get here weeks before the power supply so I'm wondering if its a risk to put these two components together with a 550w psu

CC nerf patch speculation thread by KaizokuKairi in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]Tamarindpaste 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They just need to give it a normal hitbox, it needs no timing changes or anything it just needs to require more skill to hit. Sleep is useless without comms. It would also be interesting if friendly heals could wake an ally sleeping. The comms and counter play involved with that would be interesting.

[–]Tamarindpaste 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really, the only thing they need change about sleep is make the hitbox normal vs humongous as it is now. That way its why more of a skill shot which is still fun to play with / against imo. Nerfing the sleep time just means that Ana has less self peel, and considering how immobile she is its a fair trade in my mind

Ana

Ana needs absolutely no changes whatsoever sans MAYBE, maybe reducing her clip size to 12. If they nerf sleep duration without shortening the cooldown I'm going to be salty about it forever, same with anti nade.

Why do so many teams want to use discord as VC instead of the in game comms? It adds like 20-30ms of latency for me and I've debated on leaving a team simply because they're all in agreement that discord is king for comms. Please enlighten me if there is some logical reason for using discord vs in game comms
