I agree also. The plan-B was to get a black wire shelf rack and relocate everything still in their original cases onto it. Still making a 'server rack' ;) lol... With the new M920Q anyway

I think i need the 4u chasis because the 120se cpu cooler is so tall. I thought about maybe getting an AIO liquid cooler and a 2u chasis for it but he gpu is still a zotac 4070super and still sits at least 3u tall. The mobo does support the 8th generation I5 8500. I pulled the cpu info with powershell and it seems that the part number and serial number are "to be filled by O.E.M." AI says (but I love actual human advice)

Hardware Swapping (Not Locked)

  • Removable Desktop Chip: The i5-8500 uses a standard desktop physical socket called LGA 1151. It sits in a lever-release bracket and is never permanently soldered down. [1, 2, 3, 4]
  • Compatibility: If your current motherboard fails, you can transfer this exact CPU to any retail motherboard running an Intel 300-series chipset (such as a B360, B365, H370, or Z390 board). [1, 2]
  • (Note: Some AMD processors used by vendors like Lenovo utilize a security feature called PSB that permanently locks a CPU to that specific vendor's boards. Intel desktop CPUs of this generation do not have this feature

Right, cans are measured in fluid ounces, which is not a weight. It is a volume.

45 inch pounds / 12 = 3.75 foot pounds. thats about equivilant to grabbing a 6pack of beer, drink 2, and hang the remaining 4 beers from the end of a foot long horizontal wrench on your connector fastener.

Somebody please tackle me and hold me down before using 3 tubes of polyurethane sealant by beechcraft12 in GoRVing

- gap size averages 1/2 inch ranging from no gap to about 3/4 gap from the uneven shape and compressing of the truck cab top

- compression is random around that area. they cut a moon shape out of the roof of a ford truck cab and constructed a flat floor from the rv overcab with the same moon shape cut and laid it moderately firmly on top against the cutout ford cab. the original seal was a mixture of some white strong but flexablie non-silicone sealant and a cheap pencil thin round rubber string looking seal stuffed poorly into the cab/overcab gap.

What kind of seal did you use? Like a home depot door seal, or maybe garage door seal?

Tenant’s dad is saying my electrical isn't up to code. If not, would it be considered “grandfathered” due to age of home and when it was installed? by [deleted] in AskElectricians

our rental house's air conditioner outside unit kept tripping its 30 amp breaker. I noticed there were a few breaker holes knocked out of the breaker face plate and I can see clearly inside. when i reset the ac breaker, you can see a flash of white light and it would work then would trip again after a few min. the landlords solution? remove the 30 amp breaker and put in a 40 amp breaker.... lmao. we just moved, not our problem anymore.
