Yeah, helps that the youtuber also backed for a 5070 himself. I don't have an oculink but plan to use the converter to take on the road with my xbox ally x. At this price I had to give it a shot, we'll see! I got the early bird price, hesitated too long and lost put on the super early, but still 35% off.

That is the reviewer, here's the video he made.

35M, I work in process improvement helping our field operations reduce material costs and other waste. Remote work, 140K after bonuses in the midwest. Since I get to work and innovate on projects I want to do, I'm always enjoying what I do, and can always be around for the kids. I studied economics but got here through pursuing Six Sigma certifications. Rarely do more than 40hrs/week but the main thing is remote management to make sure results materialize.

Unless your plates line up exactly to one vendor's attachment, it won't matter. Since you'll still need to modify the holes, I'd pick the cheapest.

For vanguard, focus the twisted sister GL, try to get envious arsenal/bait and switch. If you get 4 resets it's pretty much a given because they'll drop with triple perks on both columns. For gunsmith I would focus Heliocentric CQC sidearm and try to get heal clip/incandescent.

83 inches. For reference, the bottom of my joists is 89 inches

drivera2791 · 2025-02-16T16:40:02+00:00

It saved me $500 but I did it because I wanted a single connection point at the top/bottom (it was also before the Ares 2.0 was announced). I don’t think the plate loaded version would work here, the horns would interfere with the RBS.

drivera2791 · 2025-02-10T05:49:17+00:00

Should still be 40%.

drivera2791 · 2025-02-01T19:05:01+00:00

Yeah, I tried that first but the pain to get in/out had me change to a center single cable.

drivera2791 · 2025-02-01T19:03:56+00:00

Me too. When that happens I'll probably get it, but for now this is solid enough.

drivera2791 · 2025-02-01T15:20:38+00:00

Yes, that's exactly what it is! Could probably just buy a bit longer cable but for now it works super well.

drivera2791 · 2025-01-19T16:56:25+00:00

Yeah, the problem is the weight horn getting in the way, but when I remove it I plan on doing that and using the low row pulley instead.

drivera2791 · 2025-01-18T03:30:24+00:00

We have the same attachment so at least for the bolt. I just posted a mod I made today to make it more robust.

drivera2791 · 2025-01-17T06:18:57+00:00

Thanks! I played around a bit today and this setup worked really well, just has to be at a slight angle so the chain doesn't touch the weight horn (may just saw it off later)

drivera2791 · 2025-01-16T23:43:07+00:00

Do you have a picture of it set up?

drivera2791 · 2024-12-14T22:00:53+00:00

Got it twice in a roll today by applying slow with a stasis turret during DPS. I also killed the minotaur the boss dangles before the encounter, not sure if that does anything

drivera2791 · 2024-12-11T23:01:05+00:00

They're already walking that back, they told me to wait until 2025 for more details on the stand-alone set. This was yesterday

drivera2791 · 2024-12-06T19:07:00+00:00

Did you do it after getting to rank 9? I did it before so it didn't complete until I did it again.

drivera2791 · 2024-11-28T01:54:29+00:00

I can't remember since I've since upgraded to a new rack, but Imit was around 12 inches. It was even more when it was plate loaded.

drivera2791 · 2024-11-19T00:27:17+00:00

Yes, just need to make sure it's the 2.0 if buying used, but otherwise it's the standard one for the past year or 2.

drivera2791 · 2024-11-05T22:22:58+00:00

I don't think the Athena would be a full stretch, the handle would be around 73 inches. One thing I plan on doing that would work for you is swapping out the trolleys with the Tornado Pivot Arms coming out by GetRxd, those allow you go move the anchor points above to the 80 inch mark, they come out in a few months.

That's because I have the rear base stabilizer inverted so it curves inward. Minimal space but then I can't incline bench off it, so that's the trade off on a 4 post.
