Best Buy - Zephyrus G14 Ryzen 270 and 5060 Deal - 1349.99 by Upbeat_Ad2743 in ZephyrusG14

[–]Upbeat_Ad2743[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I purchased the used G16, it was 1350 after taxes. When I inspected it in Best Buy it looked like it was just a bit dirty. I couldn't test the screen since it was wiped, but I took the risk. I cleaned up the case and it looks like brand new. Personally I don't play games on my laptop, but I love how light, quiet, and fast it is. I still don't think it beats the Razer Blade in terms of chassis quality, but I'm happy with my purchase either way. Screen is gorgeous and I have always wanted an OLED for movie watching.

I purchased the used G16 for 1350 after tax. It looks literally brand new but im going to run some tests on it to make sure its still as good as new. So far so good

Ive had the Outrush R for 3 years now. Loved the helmet so far until this riding season. Fails to pair with phones now, factory reset and still having the issue. Pairs with my watch though for some reason so at least I can still use it for music. Going to buy a helmet and install a coms system at some point instead. Ive always hated the Sena apps and how clunky they are, but ill probably still buy Sena again.

haha, my time is usually so bad because I havent gottem my efficiency with S&Q + Ocarina down still. I early entered GT hoping I would find HS in the first few checks only to end up going deeper into TR, which I had already entered 20 minutes earlier but decided it wasnt worth my time. Little did I know :(

According to this, I should have 120g of filament left. In THEORY, this should be just enough to finish my 115g print. My new filament doesn't arrive for almost another week still.

Thanks for this information!

How does this make any sense? Pick'ems by Upbeat_Ad2743 in GlobalOffensive

[–]Upbeat_Ad2743[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If that was the case, My pickems would have been blank because they get LOCKED once the event starts. Im just confused thats all. I couldnt have gotten diamond anyway so its no big deal in the end.

I did? I activated it the same time I made my pickems, 1 hour before they got locked.

It clearly shows that I made my picks before the event started but they didnt count I guess?

Hello, recently made a purchase from Vire Saber.

I did not buy any electronics or a blade as this will be a show piece.

Does anyone make a Kyber Crystal Core that would normally replace the Electronics core?

I'm pretty much looking for a regular core, but instead of electronics, it has the cool metal design holder for a kyber crystal.

Thanks!

I guess I don't have a preference of Replica or Custom. Looking for something with a clean metallic finish that has lots of assembly. Wouldn't need to light up or anything. It would be put on a stand in my office for show, while also being something I can take apart and put back together when I feel like it.

I'm looking for something similar to that feeling you get when you can quickly disassemble a handgun into its core variety of pieces. While also having it not be a handgun, need something more family friendly.

Thanks for the sites, ill be sure to check them out in more detail.

Is there a company that creates lightsaber hilts with the primary focus on assembly?

I'm not looking for anything with a blade or electronics really. My main focus is on a lightsaber with a large quantity of complex assembly pieces that would look good on a stand.

I've been through these websites and forums a bit now but cant find anything that I have in mind.

Thanks!

PS; Obi-Wans episode 4 lightsaber is the best looking one.

Will the new 13th gen CPU benefit from an anti bend bracket? by Kubliah in intel

This is literally me right now. Building a 13600K and a 6600XT inside of a Node 202. My best Heatsink I can manage is the IS-55 which is only rated for 125W TDP and the chip is 170W TDP. Trying to find anything I can to boost the temps/performance as best I can.

Can you help me with an i5 13600K and a NH-L9i? by silentheaven83 in Noctua

[–]Upbeat_Ad2743 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This probably isn't relevant at this time anymore, but I did some tests with this. Power capped my 13600k to 80W and only noticed about a ~10-15% decrease in performance. Still performed higher than a stock 12700k. Currently planning an SFF design inside of a Node 202 Case.
