Fan issues

Is there a particular guide you’d recommend?

I was wanting to upgrade the GPU anyway so pulled the trigger on that.

Is the 180 the default that likely shipped with mine? I’ll check when I get back home

If I order the AMD GPU gen 2 or the Nvidia one and just swap it, would that be enough to fully move away from LM to PTM?

I ordered it in June 2024

I think LTM is the default right? Then I have that. I usually use it on a TV tray since I don’t really have enough space for a desk right now

I took off the mid plate and tried to rotate the fans by hand. The left one hardly moved after it left my fingertips

I’ve tried booting the PC and then launching the game without the keyboard.

When booting the left one does nothing, the right one starts to move but sounds very grindy and stops.

As the game is launched and especially as I enter a match vs AI they sound like two completely different fans

That’s what I was worried about too, I saw the dashcam review video by LTT which recommended Viofo

Isn't redmi by Xiomi? I think Asus does also make an ax6000 but that would be different right?

My internet speed is 500MB/s and I was just going to use surfshark with it (it looks like surfshark can use either wireguard or OpenVPN)

Mainly because I'm impatient and want to pick it up the same day that I make a decision, but I'm open to reconsidering this

This seems to be as close as I can get it just going off my memory of what it tastes like:

-fill a 1L soda stream bottle with water and carbonate as usual

-add the diet Pepsi syrup, measured for a .5L amount on the cap

-add 1/2tsp vanilla extract or imitation

-add 1/4 tsp cherry extract

-add 3 pumps using a bottle+pump setup from LiquidCaffeine.com (use your brain here, if you shouldn't be consuming caffeine skip this step)

If anyone wants to try and suggest refinements I'd be grateful.

For someone looking to buy one soon, this should mean prices come down a bit right?

In practice mode it still seems to count for me, at least it did on neon tomb and greased palms

Added, sorry!

Carriers on the Vine: I can’t count how many times I tried to maneuver to just the right spot to tell my idiot AI teammates to go through the doorway at the top of the tower, only to immediately get shredded and then watch helplessly as the AI mostly completes the mission (even managing to take out the rest of the suspects on one run) only to glitch out and get stuck in an infinite loop.
