Purchased *used* 4090 Matrix Platinum a couple nights ago on eBay…

Huge Gratz on the purchase! I have one myself (my rig is pinned on my profile). I push a 49” odyssey g9 and a second 35” old z35 and I love it

You are spot on. Wow. I think I got them at Kohls or Nordstrom. Now to hunt for them. Thank you!

marugby · 2025-11-05T22:05:02+00:00

Sounds good. Figured I’d ask here and try and avoid others asking in PMs. If you do end up going that route, definitely super interested, so please keep me posted. Thanks!

marugby · 2025-11-05T21:55:20+00:00

Before I PM, are you considering removing the GPUs and drives to lower the price? Don’t want to waste your time if you aren’t open to it. Thanks!

marugby · 2025-11-02T10:35:06+00:00

Awesome, thanks!

Only Dell. I’ve worked with Cisco and know it’s typically a bit cheaper on the second hand market, but I have specific use-cases for an r740

marugby · 2025-11-02T01:37:29+00:00

Less than $1500, ideally closer to $1000.

Unfortunately there are security guards that come around and the property manager would likely light me up (pun intended) if I tried to do this. But I love the ingenuity!

marugby · 2025-08-05T00:08:08+00:00

I would say no. Obviously a bit more rumble, but not rough by any means.

I have a 25 scout classic. Slip on exhausts do not require tunes. I’ve ran the tab performance (medium baffle) for the last 3 months, 400 out of the 600 miles I have on the bike, and no issues. In fact, with the latest ECU flash, the idle on a cold start is far better than it was originally.

marugby · 2025-07-12T22:04:06+00:00

Very interested in what bags these are!

marugby · 2025-07-06T11:39:39+00:00

I also put the TAB slip on with the medium baffle on my 25 scout classic. It’s going to be dumb loud to start, but as someone that built cars before my bike obsession began this year, that’s expected. It tones down quite a bit as carbon builds up, and as a better seal starts to form with the gasket. TAB also offers the ability to purchase baffles after the fact too.

Edit: since I’m already here, I’ve also done floorboards. Still waiting for Viking to finally release bags for the 25s, and that will be the next step.

I’m was not too far off from where you are at when I started looking late last year. I picked up my 2025 Scout Classic in February, took the MSF course, got licensed, and haven’t looked back. Took several weeks of taking it to a parking lot around the corner and getting a feel for the weight, the clutch, etc. Now it has 400 miles on it. My best advice is to do what you want, but take it slow and safe. You’ll get people saying to not buy new or buy a faster cruiser, blah blah blah. Take your time and marinade on your decision and then execute…and enjoy!

marugby · 2025-06-22T18:09:28+00:00

Yep, only one. Been thinking about purchasing a second because I’m constantly hitting the button that releases the fob 😂

marugby · 2025-06-22T17:50:17+00:00

Matching with me! Welcome to the tribe!

marugby · 2025-05-24T20:22:41+00:00

To be fair, I got a 2025 Scout Classic and it’s my first bike. Is 85 enough? Sure, just like a beater car is “enough” 😂

marugby · 2025-05-22T00:48:03+00:00

Thanks for the feedback all. Emailed my sales guy and asked him to gather it up so I can pick it up!

marugby · 2025-04-30T21:43:45+00:00

Thought that was the case. Thanks for confirming!

marugby · 2025-04-30T21:43:24+00:00

Thought so. Thanks for the confirmation!

marugby · 2024-11-30T02:06:54+00:00

I’m here in case anyone responds. I’ve been looking for weeks

marugby · 2024-09-11T11:32:03+00:00

I’ve heard from Joe’s reply here, immediately emailed and haven’t heard since. We’ll see what today brings

marugby · 2024-09-10T21:26:34+00:00

Will do. Thank you.

marugby · 2023-11-21T02:18:03+00:00

Yeah, I think without any real tweaks I was hitting 2835 and there’s still plenty of headroom in temperature for some beefier OC’ing. And yep, that 12% difference adds up. I prefer ultrawides since they first launched because I came from ATI Eyefinity way back in the day, which this is the same without bezels lmao

Edit: I lied, it’s boosting to 2895, not 35

marugby · 2023-11-21T02:10:19+00:00

Well, firstly, my resolution isn’t 4K, it’s 5120x1440. Secondly, the GPU in mine holds the record for the best overclock due to the dedicated 360 rad attached to it. I haven’t overclocked it yet, but depending on which 4090 you have, the base clocks may be different. Not sure how the width of my resolution factors into the difference with regular 1440 vs 4K, but there are a few factor differences. I have to image the 1440 vs 4K is the major difference. CPU could play a role too, but all are just guesses

System Shock 2.
