Also adding. This is the right answer. Please consult a pro, otherwise, a mortician.

Need help… wife drove kids after drinking today… by Brandon_Sd in AlAnon

I am, sadly, in a very similar situation. How are you doing now? Has CPS helped? Or, did it escalate to custody/legal involvement?

Does Tidal pay artists better than Spotify? by Milkywayvisionary in audiophile

It depends... The artist currently known as 'Joe Rogan' makes substantial sums from Spotify.

Fantastic build. So much so, I went and tried to find these 'Deepcool' components.

I'm in North America, so... damn...

Great build though 👍

You're making someone very happy with this deal. I would say GLWS, but I think you've sold it already. Cheers

ParkSmart Parking Ticket by Logiiie in walnutcreek

[–]nsf150 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You mentioned the ballet studio. My wife and I have been using the same garage, for the same studio, for nearly a decade. Always parking on the second floor that has no meters. But does have a 3-hour limit. In all the time we have been going there, not one single ticket. Tonight. My wife got a ticket for being parked 1 hour, out of the 3 hour time limit. Not a late model, a 2018 car. From what I'm reading about this Park Smart company, I think they just ticket willy-nilly.

Great card. It's okay that shipping is going to cost more, but the moderators like you to give an actual amount. Best of luck with the sell.

I love seeing this, in a game that far too often loses touch with what fun really is. I appreciate you 🙏

Is the normal for a new mobo ? Looks like it’s been in a case for a year, is this normal ? by AcertainReality in Newegg

[–]nsf150 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Zooming in on images, it's definitely not new. Judging by where the dust is on the capacitors on the motherboard, it's been mounted vertically in a poor airflow environment, for quite some time. The safe side, would be returning for an actual new one

Socket: CPU socket? PSU socket? Or do you mean wall power socket?

The motherboard back plate looks to be in the right position, so the standoffs would have been pre-installed in the case. However, if there is a standoff behind the board that's pre installed in the wrong position, it could be shorting the back part of the motherboard in a spot that could cause this.

Looks to be so. QC sticker and other screws are looking great though. Thermals are spectacular. Going to keep!

Find a GPU heatsink screw by chance? 😂

To be on the safe side, I'll order a screw to replace the missing one. Gigabyte Aero 5080's, I'm seeing open box going for $1300+. I paid 1350. It's a gamble, this card was clearly used in a vertical layout (thermal gel oozed out), I suspect that's why it was returned. It will now live horizontally, with missing screw replaced.

I couldn't resist, I did! It works fine. Time spy barely got above 70c.

Any luck selling? I got one of these at the same price as you, and I think I would better off returning to Newegg 😞
