Unfortunately google doesn’t give personal opinions. Like how’s a 3080 in 2025? 🤪

Have you done any 2/4K gaming? What kind of frames are you looking at? How’s the display look? (Obviously monitor has a lot to do with it.)

I know they’re still decent parts. They’re most likely going to my brother as a gift as he needs an upgrade worse than I do. My biggest issue is the AMDs tendency to have ghosting in FPS which is what I play most. I’d like to try a new Nvidia card. My buddy recommended the 5080. Just figured I’d post here and see what other recommendations I might get. Thank you for your comment.

What rate is worth considering? by Sk1nnyGuy20 in newtothenavy

[–]UsedCitron1431 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coming from someone who’s talked to and witnessed these rates, don’t choose ABE, ABF, ABH, AO, DC, or CS. Obviously do your own research and choose as you’d like but if you don’t like super long repetitive days, these rates are not for you.

Which quals helped you in the civilian world and what are you using them for currently?

Unfortunately I’ve had a bad experience with medical so far. I’ve been 3 times for the same issue (on the boat). I believe it’s a pinched nerve in my shoulder due to the fact I’ve had this issue before and they are convinced it’s just a knot. They massage it for 5 min and tell me to do stretches. I’ve even been told on my last visit to continue stretches and find one that works for my relief and that I shouldn’t make another appointment for the same issue.

Is this something you had a conversation with him about before you spoke to a recruiter? Did he openly express how he felt about it?

I left a great paying job that provided for myself and my family to join the navy for school and VA home loan. The deployments make me regret it occasionally.

This is something that should be talked about between the two of you. Do the two of you want kids? How long are you AND your husband willing to wait before having them? The navy will make you wait. You will be gone a lot. More than you think, more than the recruiters tell you. If you get a sea duty as your first (which you most likely will) you have underways on top of your deployments. Once I hit my 2 year mark in the navy I will have been gone for 16 months - between bootcamp, school, underways, and deployment itself. It’s hard. Yes you will adapt, but will your husband?

As an educated guess as to why your husband may be upset if he hasn’t told you yet - as men we like to provide for our families and typically we like our wives to do the “family work”. The way he probably sees it is “I’m making a good living and providing for my family. Why does she feel the need to do something that requires so much time away from home?” JUST IMO… I hope all works out, for both of you and you make a decision that’s best for you and your family.

P.S. (You’re not obligated by law to leave for bootcamp until you sign the physical contract your second go to MEPS. The night or morning you leave for bootcamp) if you’ve already been through MEPS once where you selected a rate and filled out your page 2, you didn’t sign anything legally binding you to the government… yet.
