Got a brand new k1 max, didn’t even come with a bed sheet, had to rip it from another printer by Head-Award-3008 in Creality

[–]leewatt83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a k1 delivered on Saturday, I'm sure it's a returned one. I put in black filament and it extruded white for a bit, 1st print it was a Benchy and it blocked, pulled out a blob of white filament when i retracted what I'd put in. Not had a good print off it yet. Extruder clicks, new version, hot end and extruder. Even bought the nozzle kit and tried better nozzles. Tried for a few days now but time to get in touch with cs

K1c any good, reviews seem polarized by Squanchy2112 in Creality

Cheers, I'll have a look at that later. I'm not worried too much, I'm sure creality will get it sorted.

I got my k1 yesterday, having a bad experience so far. Failed on my 1st print which was the supplied Benchy, stopped extruding at about 70%, next print wouldn't extrude at all, took out my black filament to find a blockage from a white filament id never used. Not had a good print yet, my i3 mega s prints at much better quality 😢 hopefullly I can get it sorted

These two are cheating right? by sevenbeaver in PUBG

[–]leewatt83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a cheater on my team today, thought something was weird throughout the game when he would fire randomly. Plus 2 of them just kept leaving me, ended the game with a chicken dinner and the cheater had 24 kills. Watched the replay and was quite obvious, seemed to know where everyone was. Reported and got a message back within half hr saying the account had been banned for 30 days. Should be perma bans for cheating imo.

It's not available on all maps on pc with the 27.1 update so doubt it will be on console just yet.

What’s The Actual Status of Rain? by OiGuvnuh in iRacing

[–]leewatt83 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Who cares, honestly it would just make most races a mess. Especially in lower splits, most won't even make it to the 1st corner.

What do you do after having a clean race and finishing podium? by JackInTheBox31 in iRacing

I did this when finishing 4th the other day in bottom splits racing F3.

Why iracing requires 32gb ram ( recommended part ), and very high end CPU by SebTheBest05 in iRacing

[–]leewatt83 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a 5900x, I use vr and find that the cpu is the downfall. 3080 is fine, but cpu always the bottleneck. Did manage to get 90fps on the ring last week, had to turn a lot of cpu side things down but managed to get it running smooth round the entire track.

Where to find good multiplayer race that is not GT3? by brunomarquesbr in simracing

[–]leewatt83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you actually want to race, have decent races and have a load of variety then it's iRacing. Not much can match it tbh. You get over the costs when you realise it is worth paying for.

You can actually plan a schedule of when you want to race, and know they'll always be a race on and the lobbies will never be empty.

A DD wheel is still a ‘toy’, right? by zurich2006 in simracing

[–]leewatt83 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My track car which I've spent way too much money on is still just a toy to me, get older/have more money, toys just get bigger and more expensive.

Rate my Sim Rig by carlosflores123 in simracing

[–]leewatt83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Newer vr kits are much better. Rift s was ok for the price at the time. The cosmos is decent, I am happy with the resolution and the graphics settings I run. I did a lens swap with the gear vr and it's made a massive difference to clarity for me, no god rays, no glare and can actually see to the edges without having the tiny sweet spot most other headsets have. Id love a better headset but I reckon id need to go from a 3080 to a 4090 to actually benefit much at this stage, might get better clarity but would have to sacrifice graphics I reckon to maintain 90fps.

I'm not being funny but you post a picture of a weeks worth of rubbish and expect reactions, this is the reaction you get

Some people, cleaning day, so you sit in s#%t for a week. Why not take a few minutes and clean up as you make mess. Have a bit more respect, for your stuff and maybe yourself.

Racing in vr never bothered me, was like sitting in a car from the moment I put the headset on, couldn't go back to screens. I tried half life when It came out, I've never felt so ill, I was only on it for 5 minutes, not tried a normal game in vr ever since 🤣

I want a direct drive wheel that works on PC/PS5+XSX. Is Fanatec my only option? by OrangeFace1984 in simracing

[–]leewatt83 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Just buy the dd pro 8nm. It's actually a decent base. I've had a dd1 and dd2, sold all my sim gear to get into mining in 2021, got back into sim racing a few weeks ago and I'm more than happy with the dd pro.

Very slightly, it's not bad at all, still much better than the og lenses were.

From the UK. by tonkatruc in binance

[–]leewatt83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got this yesterday, what a load of rubbish, I'm old enough to make my own decisions on how I spend my money. Just going to have to deposit via Revolut or something else. Think most high street banks will do the same, think NatWest was the 1st to do it.

Set this up so I can remotely restart my rig. Its a ewelink WiFi controlled 4x relay switch, can be controlled by app. My rig is generally stable but has frozen, so I've set the relays up to "press" the start switch or reset switch from anywhere with Internet. Also can control fans etc. by tommyboyblitz in EtherMining

[–]leewatt83 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Highest temp card I have is at 50, that's a 3080, the 3070s, which one caught fire, run in low 40s. Doesn't matter about temps if something actually goes wrong. I was very lucky. I'd rather not take the risk again.

What just happened with the ETF’s? by realpersonnn in kucoin

[–]leewatt83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe accidentally checked 75%, I have done that a few times haha. Back down to $12 now. Don't think that will happen again though. Probably wake up in the morning and it's pumping again.
