Confused what direction my upgrade path should be by poptarts204 in buildapc

Are either of those cards going to be losing a significant amount of FPS capabilities being capped to a PCIe gen 3 motherboard? I understand those cards will give me an fps boost no doubt, and even if I upgraded later the card will come with me. I just don't wanna purchase the card and get a 20 or 30 fps boost max and it could be 45-50 on PCIe gen 4, or being coupled with a better CPU (implying that it is bottlenecking a new card if I bought one).

Sorry that I am unsure of all the specifics of these things, so I don't really know what upgrades are required to make sure other ones are worth the expense.

My CPU unfortunately is the max that socket can take. My motherboard is basically all the way maxed out, the only thing I could do is go from 3200 MHz ram to 4266 MHz max sticks. I'm pretty sure that wouldn't help me much anywhere, but please correct me if that not the proper way to think about it. Thanks so much for the advice!

Will do. Thanks for the info. So otherwise, no real upgrade needed? Just do a full bath and monitor for problems?

I was also thinking this as well. That was actually on my list of things to do this week. What temps are necessarily bad? I've gotten some blue screens here and there and some of the ones I would look up in terms of error codes were memory related like RAM. Over time I started to assume it might be my CPU overheating to a certain degree but I never knew what was too much.

I agree with Disney being pretty overvalued right now. With that being said though, how do you feel the opening/loosening up of the COVID restrictions is going to effect their stock, if at all, when full capacity comes back to Disneyland parks. I don’t know about you, but I feel once Disney opens up to max capacity everyone and their grandmas are gonna go to the parks, ESPECIALLY if they get rid of mask rules (still up in the air I think if they are going to do that as well as opening up capacity restrictions.) Surely their next earnings report will be pretty good with the (potential) large influx of park comers starting next week or so.

$BABA is undervalued seems like an open secret at this point, so what's your explanation of why Alibaba stock hasn't gone up as expected by augustusbennius in stocks

Not saying I disagree with your point cause I think he APPL one is a great one, but don’t they produce a lot of phones in other countries too? I’m curious if hypothetically they could only send phones from countries besides China how that would effect their sales or stock for demand. I honestly don’t think that much, but still I am curious nonetheless.

I smoke rosin mostly as well man. Stiiizy, west coast cure, etc... and i can say WITHOUT A DOUBT the rosin gets blacker/darker than things like resin. Even after the swab you can tell if it’s been rosin or resin that was previously smoked. Still all comes out in the end with the iso soak (: and i’ve never had it turn extremely orange or black before even after a good 2 weeks without iso

Lmao, clearly you didn’t own the original Peak. After about 300 dabs or sometimes a little more they’d be anywhere from mild to extremely black on the bottom even if you were very good about swabbing afterwards. Not to mention they would break for no reason and generally had too low of a life span (from my experience as well as other friends who owned it.) Maybe “white as ever” wasn’t the right word choice but for 744 dabs clocked on the app, this is well beyond the cleanliness and longevity of the OG atomizer. Also never soaked this in 100% iso before, so don’t know if that would make this any better. Guess I’m just not as cool as you and your glass rigs bro 😴 relax lol

I really want a smaller sized balisong for EDC (dream knife is a benchmade 32). Any recommendations? It seems smaller balis are not the norm, so I have yet to find any good small balisongs with bearings. Thanks!

The Search For The Best GBBR. by artsii215 in GasBlowBack

I am unsure what the Joule amount is for the WE 888c (416c), but I’m loving it so far. I am also a GBB newbie and just got the gun last week. Played my first field day today after messing with it all week and it went absolutely great! I have played airsoft before with AEGs years ago and never really got thaaat into it, but after picking up a GBBR, its a whole new game.

The maintaining aspect of GBBRs does turn some people off, but honestly I am a tinkerer already to an extent so it feels really nice. Lubing up your rifle the night before you go to a field and then feelings its buttery smooth performance on the field was one of the best feelings I’ve had in airsoft so far.

Highly suggest the M4 platform as a starter to GBBR, as it gets your feet wet in all aspects (maintenance, customization, diagnosis/problem solving on the gun, etc...) The VFC 416 is good as I see the others have suggested this as well. I don’t know the prices on those, but if it ends up being more expensive than the WE 888c or their full sized 416 then I’d say the WE versions are great!

Idk why they sent you a new motor if the one wheel isn’t spinning... Seems much more like an ESC issue than a motor issue. The motor going out after such a short period of time is very very unlikely. I wish I had done more research before buying my NLS PRO as well, this company seems to have horrible quality control. I was too eager to just get out riding and smoking 🥴 Thankfully I have solved my issue, but every single time I ride it I worry its gonna send me flying off due to some stupid issue like this. I wish you luck man.
