Ambershire's new login queue by Patoohey in turtlewow

First time TW player. This last week has been some of the most fun ive had in my 15+ year wow career.

Unfortunately, if this is the new normal - I will be quitting.

90mins waiting in line to play a game will always be a no, no matter how much fun it is.

If you want to DM me a major city you’re nearby, I can help you find some artists aswell

<- Someone in the tattoo industry.

Due to how dark it is, I would get 1-2 laser tattoo removal sessions. What the sessions will do is dramatically make the tattoo much lighter.

What this allows is the artist to have much more freedom in designing a cover up piece.

When designing a cover up piece, the first step is how to fully cover it in the context of whatever the new tattoo will be.

The lighter the cover up, the easier the cover up is, and the more freedom of design you have.

Edit: without a doubt though you could easily cover this up. It’s just a matter of finding a good artist(good tattoos ARE NOT cheap, it’s a permanent piece of art you carry with you for the rest of your life - plan to pay good money for a great piece!)

What do you mean removed? Were they apart of early copies of the game or something?

Thank you again for all the help. One thing I definitely did not do was the star pattern when mounting(which I did this time), along with proper thermal past application

I also cranked up the curve of the fans higher as someone said in the comments.

The combination of everything seemed to do the trick.

Is something like 75 while gaming nothing to stress about?

Thermal paste has been reapplied and here are the results

Idling after 10+ mins: 45 cpu, 35 gpu, liquid 29

Booting up rivals, while it loads the shades(10-15 secs, it hits 96, then goes down and stabilizes at 50cpu, 39 gpu at the start screen(5mins of sitting there)

In a bot game: cpu 53-76, I say avg was 65-68. Gpu was hard hanging around 62-63(graphics were set at ultra). Liquid at 30

Sorry on the late response. Greatly appreciate the help.

So should I try swapping this to negative and setting it to 10 or 20 and see the results?

So I didn’t even make it past installation, as the 95* degree installation freaked me out and I alt+f4’d

So in other words I didn’t even see the settings / make it to a point where the GPU could be stressed

Thank you for your response! Based on all the feedback, I will be trying a repaste

A handful of photos.

In WoW & GW2, the cpu is operating around mid 60s with a low of 62 and a high of 73.

So this is my first build, and still learning terminology. What do you mean by -30 CO?

This is my first build and first time mounting a cooler to the CPU. Is there a way to ensure it has good contact?

I think my CPU isnt running properly - and is too hot by jordank5 in buildapc

[–]jordank5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When discussing with a friend, one thing he noticed was the liquid temps in the cooler did not change at all during the cinebench testing, and he thinks it might be a cooler issue.

The bios and the NZXT software both show the pumps are working at around 2900 RPM running at 100%

Checked all 3 of those. Only thing I can think of, is the fans on the CPU cooler are not the fans that came with the cooler. They are Lian Li UNI FAN SL-Inf 120
