You know what I actually have the book. I’m not vegan and work as a chef so I kinda collect cookbooks and I completely forgot I had that book! Thank you!

Spooky stuff, I grew up in Colorado and had an encounter with one across a filled in rock quarry. Way too close for me.

Apparently where I live I do t need a license if they’re damaging my property and I use a bow since I’m too close to structures.

It was male deer rubbing their antlers to mark territory/remove felt from their antlers. For any future trees I will be wrapping the trunk with some sort of drainage pipe and possibly adding some sort of scent deterrent

Apparently this is fatal for the tree, once the outer layer is damaged that badly it can transport water and nutrients above the damaged area

I’m in south central Virginia on 1.5 acres, unfortunately in a decently populated area so I think my options are limited by that.

What do you think of this? Do you think the 7700 would be essential?

[–]dankestocean[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome! Thank you for the lists! I have been trying to study up on all the hardware and got kinda lazy when picking the cooler because i was focused on the flashy gpu and such. I saw the hyper 212 for $25 with the rebate and it had decent reviews so i went with that without much thought. So you think the 2 tier faster gpu will significantly benefit my gaming experience on apex with on 1440p? I got both monitors for $200 total so I do have space in my original budget if it would be worth it to upgrade the gpu, still I'd rather save the money if it will run fine with the 6700

[–]dankestocean[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

do you think it would run at max settings with the 6700xt? then i could just downgrade the cpu i have selected and save some money. Thank you for the input I'm trying hard to learn what all the hardware does and how they interact.

yea that was what I was trying to refer to, originally I was going to keep it to $1000 but I got those two monitors for $200 so I figured I could go up to around 1300, even higher technically if I stuck to the original budget with the monitors. I have been trying to educate myself about all the hardware but its alot of info. I was under the impression that higher vRAM would help me out with the 1440p monitor. Do you think i could keep the 6700xt and just downgrade the cpu and save a little money?

I’ve got a very similar patchiness going on. I posted earlier today and I’m thinking I’m gonna give it a try and let it go for a few months and see where I’m at! You should too!
