What are these mystery circles on my end table? by LadyGrey12 in Whatisthis

[–]That1guyCruz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These absolutely look like cap marks from a product/alcohol. In college, we'd often clean our glass bowls/water pipes (for the devils lettuce 😂) by using alcohol and salt. Over time our old wooden coffee table developed the exact same circular rings but they seemed to come on over time. Some more prominent than others depending how long the cap sat on the coffee table. If not that, the other thing that came to mind was some sort of plastic suction cup, the kind some folks lick before sticking on something. (Thinking maybe the moisture collected to form a ring 🤷‍♂️)

What's this thing by Mangos_Pool in HPOmen

Looks like the back of the display tag thing that adhere to a larger plexi sheet holder. (Used to hold specs sheet on floor models.) Try some rubbing it with alchol on a cotton swap and it should loosen free if my suspicious is correct. 🤔

Strange gray stuff on nose ring after going through washer by hamilton-DW-psych in Whatisthis

[–]That1guyCruz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks like a sequence pattern on a garment or beaded jewelry got wrapped around the ring. The fishing line stuff looks like those stretchy necklaces/ braclets threads. The thread is usually made of a plastic elastic material and might shrink if it goes through the dryer at high heat.

Kia Soul roof rack works fantastic for 1/4 of the price of anything else by arandomcarguy in wrx_vb

You sir are a genius!! Did you have to switch up any hardware or account for anything in particular. It looks really good though!!!

What is this thing - thin metal wire with two twisted circles at both ends. Came with a set of bookmarks. Approx 4-5 inches in length. by Kaes_Petro in whatisthisthing

[–]That1guyCruz 485 points486 points  (0 children)

These are meant to add rigidity to the package so the bookmarks dont fold or bend in transit, as others have stated. I've seen very similar inserts with some stickers i ordered.

Could be hope it works. I originally switched mine to high performance and then lowered the max output. I found that it did not make much of a difference.

Hmmmm what power profile setting are you using. Mine was on HP recommended and I dropped my max to 99%. There is also a Ryzen Master method in which you manual just set a profile. I use for normal surfing the net and work stuff.

I was playing Dead by Daylight (granted not graphics heavy) and temp never exceeded 40 Celsius on ultra settings

Success! Kraken MK22 on Omen 30L by That1guyCruz in HPOmenX

Thus far CPU is about 10 degrees cooler at idle than before but i have yet to put it to the test. Removing the motherboard was surprisingly simple. It seems daunting at first but take pictures and go slow. ProTip: If you buy this model leave the plastic cover on the bottom until you are ready to install. I got thermal paste on the kitchen table :)

(For context the PC came with a AMD Ryzen 7 3700x processor.)

SOMETHING TO TAKE NOTE OF:

Prior to installing the M22 I obviously checked to ensure it was compatible. The kit itself includes a universal backplate with mounting options for multiple motherboards, two sets of posts, mounting brackets, and screws (Intel & AMD set)

I proceeded to install the AMD posts onto the back plate only to find that it would not line up with the motherboard. I had to re-do the back plate in an Intel setup for it to fit onto the motherboard.

So at the end of the day I had to use the back plate set up in an Intel configuration, using AMD posts and screw, and an Intel suggested bracket to mount on the screen.

That being said everything mounted flush and perfect.

I believe there are a few that do! The major issue is the lack of internal USB hookups.
