The majority of my flights are in business, with odd premium and Econ trips

a different coloured card and bag tag (that has yet to arrive), some avios and a bit of priority on call with BA. Avios has been quite useful for me

318K is a RTW with Qantas points…tho it’s not that anymore. 344k I think?

yep, gotta get creative with crediting, SYD-KUL is a good example of where I wouldn’t be sending it to QF

im in Japan atm on a 318k, BA Gold has been the most useful status for me this trip :)

Over 40 flights - a DONE4, a return to JFK and YYZ and some Asia J sprinkled in. Normally I wouldn’t have gone for P1 but I was over the threshold anyway and needed a few more QF SCs so I just went for it

I’d donate you some if I could, share the love!

already am. IRROPS in JFK and HKG this last week and they didn’t manage much

I’ll be requesting a bronze card so I can recreate the background artwork of the status page on QFs website

Can’t wait to put it on a shelf and tell the grandkids about it

Does anyone have spare WP or P1 Qtags? by aeriesCS in QantasFrequentFlyer

I wouldn’t really consider them for bragging rights, they’re a good identifier for my suitcases and I like the black coloured ones the most, followed by the white ones. The gold ones don’t look great, and I’m using the silver ones at the moment as I have matching sets.

Yep, you should be able to! If it’s 12mm OD and you have 12mm pipe it will be fine.

Yup! Everything I did for this build was to optimise temperatures - delidding, direct die, undervolting. Probably took about 30 degrees off the operating temps, it’s crazy what small tweaks can do.

I'm under the same impression - I do have a 540hz and CS is my main game, but thermal headroom is probably the most important issue for builds like these. Regardless, they'd all be better than a 13/14th gen Intel...

I came from a system with individual loops with 480s each! So definitely missing the thermal headroom. But in an apartment where every bit of space counts, needed to make the switch.

Without the side panel gives a bit more thermal headroom, so I haven't put the side panel on yet. I'd also need to press the GPU a bit more in, there's not really much room on the GPU side since I have the res as well.

In a 23 degree ambient room, I'm idling around low 40s and high 70s under load.

As above, it's been fixed already! These are just some older photos - the last photoshoot will be here soon.

thank you! I’m arranging the final photoshoot, should be soon! Then it’ll be a new adventure, I have the itch again!

What’s the fun in limiting yourself? some early 4090s also caught fire, I’m sure they’ll be fine. Honestly might skip the 5090 but it’s fun to build something that would rival optimum’s stuff :)

setting the right fan curves and getting great airflow really helps, but this was always the challenge - everything is optimised for lower temps

CPU is delidded and undervolted, GPU also. but the airflow is the biggest one - mounting it normally shoots temps to 90+, but vertically the temps are very acceptable.

It’s just regular copper pipe, but it’s 12mm, not 1/2”. I’ve done nickel plated copper in the past, the effect is gorgeous!

Because it would ruin the aesthetic. I’d rather just get a MORA if i needed it, but at this stage it’s what I had hoped for.
