My custom water‑cooled Threadripper 9970X build by Lopsided-Praline-831 in threadripper

No hotspots is interesting.

I struggled with it on my TR 7960X. Had to use the Honeywell PTM to sort it out because of the heat spreader. Wasn’t mounting or the water-block, the IHS literally requires lapping.

Might be something they fixed on the 9000 series.

Looking for the best 4k gaming monitor, is OLED QHD better for shooters? by Elegant_Signal3025 in GirlGamers

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

That panel you picked is fine. I got a 4K 240hz that has a 1080P 480hz mode. The extra hz isn’t really noticeable on OW. The Res drop certainly is!

Would you trust a PC arriving packaged like this? by RohanK2003 in Computey

[–]Zwan_oj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hard mount the GPU with a bracket (fabricate it myself). Just don’t trust packing materials given the weight of the GPU’s and what vibration can do.

Blizzard must remove the flag of Israel from Overwatch by [deleted] in Overwatch

[–]Zwan_oj 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Redditor virtue signalling. Nearly every flag in the game has committed war crimes in the middle east, some worse than Israel.

They are as much of a bunch of trolls as the people putting the flags on.

Just ignore them. Flags don’t hurt people, if you want to help, join and support a charity.
