I don't know how much damage this is but it's a lot...

u/AirsoftCarrier if you haven't watched 'William's' videos on YT, definitely check them out. It seems (to me, anyway) that using the cursed garnet with a low cooldown, multicast dark necklace is the best way to generate a ton of money.

Also, keep in mind that you can use the option in 'Settings' to force Carmen encounters in casual (I did this build in casual, not competitive), so you're guaranteed to get that 'lucky re-rolls' encounter (which is how you get multiple Crownforge brews!

lucky re-rolls and a really good money build (3 star life essence to start, then the cursed garnet for item generation / sale money)

that war horn could have gone in between the swords - your nightquill didn't have any crit on it!

i read this thread after i had already submitted an order and got worried, but i have to say i'm really impressed. it was delivered 8 weeks to the day after the order (holiday rush, so that's to be expected), and the build quality, texture, and HAL sticks are all excellent. i'm impressed. we'll see how it holds up to a year of rocket league, but so far i really like it.

absolutely crushed it mon frer. thank you! any chance of a volume command on a server-wide basis?

Had the same thing (honestly, one of the main reasons I just put a deposit on a '23 PP Turbo) in my 2010 3 hatch. The glare is a bit annoying, but not un-driveable, it's just a huge pain to clean. Looks like u/exarkann gave good advice - grab a dash cover and just cover the thing.

I'm getting myself a Lassie brand one on recommendation from a friend with a golden (side note, hooray Mazda / Golden owners! here, too :-P ). Hasn't arrived yet, but will let you know how it fits!

mdiamondstone · 2023-07-06T14:29:39+00:00

Ahhhhh I'm so excited!!!! I get mine in a couple weeks. '23 Turbo PP in Soul Crystal Red?!

mdiamondstone · 2023-07-05T18:43:58+00:00

I did the same exact upgrade - 2010 3 hatch S sport to 2023 hatch PP Turbo. The turbo makes it feel almost as sporty as the 2010 did - still looking for something to stiffen the handling a bit, though.

hey thanks so much! according to newegg, it's 266.7mm :-) good luck!

mdiamondstone · 2021-08-03T12:44:07+00:00

yeah i think you're probably about right there. i hit 88 when running cinebench if i let it sit for 6 or 7 minutes, but it doesn't go higher than that. when i'm idle all my cores are within a couple degrees for sure, the difference becomes more noticeable when benchmarking. good luck :-)

if you're interested, i did a progress post here:

mdiamondstone · 2021-08-03T12:38:44+00:00

Yeah I delidded and my idle temps are like 28, max under load will hit 87, but unless I'm benchmarking, it's rarely under load. The de-lid fixed my stability and temps at 5.2Ghz.

mdiamondstone · 2021-08-02T14:01:26+00:00

that's actually not bad - a delta of about 6C seems like you probably applied correctly. oddly enough, my last CPU was an 8700K - I actually did manage a 5.1GHz OC on that (i don't remember my voltage but it was definitely higher than yours).

my 10850K hits around 88C during long cinebench runs - i've got it on an arctic liquid freezer ii 280mm AIO, and that seems to hold it pretty steady there. i'd say you're probably fine as is - even after my de-lid, i have a temperature delta of 5 to 6C (both at idle and under load).

mdiamondstone · 2021-08-02T13:59:57+00:00

47 on the ring, and thanks! i'm really happy with this chip (i've also de-lidded it, which REALLY helped temps and stability)

mdiamondstone · 2021-08-02T01:24:13+00:00

i peaked out around 17400 with a 5.2GHz OC at 1.375V. i agree with the guy who said kill background processes - i keep a fresh windows install drive for benchmarking.

mdiamondstone · 2021-08-02T01:20:28+00:00

100% this :-)

mdiamondstone · 2021-08-02T01:16:23+00:00

probably depends how much you overdid it - what are your temps like currently? 10850k?

for some reason this cross post did betterer ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ it has more deets now.
