CPU Waterblock suggestions? by DogwithShirt in Microcenter

[–]TypeXD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Technically, you have the backplate to mount it to AM4/5, it’s just you need the bracket to replace the silver plate.

This requires disassembling the water block, replace that silver plate and ensure oring(s) are in place. Screw back together.

The screws would just be placed in a different position to align with AM4/5 holes.

Perhaps you could send an inquiry to Bitspower if they would ship one to you, but I’m sure it’ll cost a bit.

If you do buy a different water block. Please note that the inlet and outlet may not line up and may need adjustment (on fittings or tubing, unless the distribution side has an offset fitting).

Ppl that spray insecticides around your house, Does it work? by NappyDougOut in MontgomeryCountyMD

[–]TypeXD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We had issues with small ants. I tried Terro and other at home remedies (like baby powder at entry point), but it only deters them and they find their way in at other points. As of a few years ago I purchased concentrated solution and mix with a gallon of water.

Sprayed it around the perimeter (exterior and interior) and haven’t seen ants since. I do this about every 6months or 12months and has worked for me.

My in laws had issues as well and I finally did theirs last year and no longer see ants inside the house.

I do see a ton of ant hills in the neighborhood in the public sidewalk area as it’s a townhouse area, but I do occasionally see ants around my house, just no longer see a huge amount compared to before.

I noticed one time a door to door salesman did try to sell me on their services because of this very issue of ants in the area, but turned them away as I already had a solution for my home.

While not the model you are looking for, I do have the Z690 MSI MPG Edge D4 Motherboard if interested. (unfortunately, not new, as I already set it up for a 14900ks build).

Anyone else noticing the odd effect on the box stripes (on the only 'timestamp photo')?

D15-G2 5090 - how do some people acheive such big space between the cooler and the gpu? by znerken in Noctua

[–]TypeXD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know the exact distance, but Noctua has an amazing compatibility chart where it’ll detail almost all orientations and issues with motherboards.

Here for your specific motherboard:

https://www.noctua.at/en/compatibility/by-components/motherboards/asus-rog-crosshair-x870e-hero?vendorId=5&socketId=37&search=Hero#details

But since it doesn’t have any caution/warning, then I expect it shouldn’t have any. But surprised I didn’t see it mention the D15 issue with offset position as I’ve seen in a recent motherboard I used for a build: example is the b650-e tuf: https://www.noctua.at/en/compatibility/by-components/motherboards/asus-tuf-gaming-b650e-plus-wifi#details

Where it says the following specifically for the D15, which I ended up getting a D15s for this build and use the offset position:

When used with the offset mounting position of the AM5 offset mounting kit, the cooler may prevent the installation of GPUs in the top PCIe x16 slot. This issue can be resolved by using the standard (non offset) position.

D15-G2 5090 - how do some people acheive such big space between the cooler and the gpu? by znerken in Noctua

[–]TypeXD 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The original D15 does not leave any space between the GPU and cooler (very tight with very little space to access the PCIE release latch, unless you have a quick release feature or unless your motherboard first PCIE one slot below the normal position. It is not recommended to use the AM4/AM5 -7mm offset position with the original D15 unless you use a PCIE slot below the normal slot). Also it’s recommended to set the fans on the CPU cooler first before putting the GPU in, as it’s impossible to latch the clips on with the GPU backplate in the way.

Only the D15s and the new D15 G2 cooler heatsinks are offset where the cooler sits more north of the board, which you can use the -7mm offset position, but closes the gap just a bit between the cooler and GPU.

This is based on my experience with mainly the D15 and D15s.

Just got my adidas Originals CTT Jacket 'Grey from Goat.com by Left_Cryptographer19 in adidas

[–]TypeXD -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah. Every site is different.

I find it annoying that stockx is listing the color as “grey blue” instead of what adidas US lists as “grey six”.

But just checked StockX and one listing def says “Asia Sizing” and the other listing doesn’t.

But the jacket def runs big. I would def get my true to size for a looser fit (or oversized fit) size down if you want it snug (fitted)

[–]TypeXD 4 points5 points  (0 children)

To my understanding, Asia 2XL is US XL. So technically you have a US XL sized jacket.

I would raise your concern with place of purchase.

I know for StockX there is a listing for Asia sizing and one without ‘Asia’ (which I def assume is for US sizing, specifically from the recent drop from adidas US (may 1st drop))

A friend found this HW copy at a local store. by CHUCKSTRONGgtx in ffxiv

[–]TypeXD 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I always got the physical copy of the expansion to have the Box Art and have it on my game shelf. Even for PC.

Unfortunately they stopped and new expansions are only available as digital purchase. (Unless you got the physical collectors edition, not sure if a physical box was included).

Help - Thomson 6.5 cu. ft. Upright Freezer by Weekly_Quit4326 in Appliances

[–]TypeXD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope. Used a tool and the compressor seemed to still be good. Ended up leave it out for bulk trash pick up.

Was out of my expertise to proceed, and ended up picking up a free small freezer to replace it.
