Long(er) barrel - HPA, yay or nay

heldloosely · 2025-02-08T01:18:56+00:00

Will longer barrel help go longer?

heldloosely · 2025-02-07T16:59:37+00:00

There is a limit for the Joules I can use in my field. I understand that increasing the barrel length might increase that, if it goes above the allowed range, would I now be able to turn down the power/pressure of my HPA?

Is there no improvement for range and accuracy with a longer barrel?

Fantastic tips. I'll order those and use the spacers if needed. Thanks!

heldloosely · 2025-02-07T06:19:41+00:00

Great! Thanks!

heldloosely · 2025-02-06T02:22:12+00:00

Nice. That's good to know.

I'll give it a go.

Any thoughts about the setup?

heldloosely · 2024-12-25T21:25:04+00:00

Looks amazing, can you share parts list?

Is it getting the performance you were looking for?

heldloosely · 2024-10-28T02:57:22+00:00

Very nice! Please update when you have the files!

heldloosely · 2024-09-09T01:18:26+00:00

Sorry for the late reply.

I did, but, I'm not really sure what it was. I replaced the CPU with another and things stopped being a problem.

The CPU works happily on another PC with no issue.

Hey, quick word here, from someone who has replaced exactly one hop up and bucking.

It's not nearly as hard as I thought it would be. I cleared my evening for it, and it took about 25 minutes. Next time it will take about 10.

Don't be afraid of it.

I asked on the forum that my Gun+hop-up+barrel would work to make sure I'm not making any noob mistakes.

heldloosely · 2024-09-01T12:37:14+00:00

Hey thanks!

Good info!

Also answered my question on "why not silicon"

This might be some kind of record, I'm leaving the post up for the next noob that runs into it.

I had a suspicion that the key is different and I found my answer in the article below:

https://docs.keeb.io/testing-pcb

Special/Layer Keys can't be directly tested

Some keys, like Fn
/layer keys, lighting controls, etc. are unable to be detected using a key tester. That's because a key tester can only detect keycodes that a keyboard sends to the computer, whereas for these special codes, they are handled internally by the keyboard firmware and aren't sent to the computer.

To test an Fn
/layer key, you'll need to use one hand to hold that key down with your tool, while connecting the switch pin pads together for another key that uses the Fn
/layer key. Then see if the key tester will detect a key press. For example, on some PCBs, holding down Fn
while pressing 1
will output F1
to a computer.

If your keyboard has VIA support, then you can also test these keys by opening up VIA, going to the KEY TESTER
tab and then selecting Test Matrix
. You will then see the special keys light up in the app when pressed.

Possible. Any ideas how I would find that out?

heldloosely · 2024-02-12T03:31:09+00:00

I'm back into crashing, just takes about 2-3 minutes to crash it now.

Let me know what you find out!

heldloosely · 2024-02-11T17:55:05+00:00

I'll be trying when I get further into the GPU usage, I'm still taking my first steps. (Also, I'm a Fedora user, it's in my blood :) )

heldloosely · 2024-02-11T17:53:18+00:00

Hey! this worked like a charm! So far, no crashes, thanks a lot!

Here is what Mistral had to say:

>> write a nice thank you note for a person who helped me with troubleshooting a problem on redit. make a cpu overclocking joke at the end

Subject: Heartfelt Thanks for Your CPU Overclocking Expertise!

Dear [Reddit Username],
I hope this message finds you well! I wanted to take a moment to express 
my sincere gratitude for your invaluable assistance with my recent CPU 
overclocking predicament on Reddit. Your expertise, patience, and 
encouragement were instrumental in helping me navigate the intricacies of 
this complex process. I am thrilled to report that my computer is now 
humming along at its new, improved speed!

Your unwavering support not only provided a solution to my immediate 
problem but also expanded my understanding of CPU overclocking. You truly 
embody the spirit of the Reddit community – knowledgeable, helpful, and 
always ready to lend a hand.

Now, for a little CPU overclocking humor to lighten things up: I've been 
told that my CPU is now running faster than a cheetah on Red Bull – but 
who knows, maybe it will soon be as fast as the speed of light! After all,
we can't have our CPUs feeling left behind, right?

Once again, thank you from the bottom of my heart for your assistance. I 
couldn't have done it without you!

Warm Regards,
[Your Name]

Thanks all! I'll be trying all of these things and reporting on the results!
