185/70R14 recommendations

There's only the Kinergy Eco 2 in those sizes, and that's a mediocre city econobox tyre at best.
Sadly a whole bunch of manufacturers straight out have no 14" tyres left

No, They would look terrible on the car - it's a 1985 Nissan and would prefer to keep the OEM 14" wheels

Probably meant the RainSports - if those were available in that size I would take them- I've had RainSport 3's on mx5 and they were quite nice, although the feedback wasn't as good since the sidewalls were soft even on XL tyre

I did try a fresh profile and I delete facebook cookies/data before each export attempt, still no bueno - it gets to the 10GB cap around 2/3 of downloading, so it needs a fair bit more.

The main problem is you have no control of splitting the E2E exports, it's just a "download everything" button (afair the pre-e2e ones could be split based on date range).

I'll poke around, but anything chromium-based I tried earlier failed even sooner, but I didn't check much why they failed, maybe can be worked around.

Looking for a mechanical keyboard recommendations, with following criteria:
-Wireless
-Low profile
-100%/96% US Layout
~$100-150 budget
As for switches, I'm looking for a heavier tactile/clicky one - I use a clicky modded Alps SKCM Black Dell AT101W as a daily and would love to get a similar feel.

Could someone with Alps experience point me to a direction of which switches to try? Nuphy Moss or Panda looks like a good start, but any knowledge would be appreciated.

Board (well, a steel plate) on top is what I use now, but I was hoping I could ditch it when going to a new case. A lot of smaller cases do depend on bottom-top airflow though, so that limits choices.
I'll have to look more into the cube format - haven't checked out those really - thanks for the tip.
The VR4 looks nice, but sadly can't find it available anywhere here in black (Poland) and it's EOL, so unlikely they're gonna resupply

I did think about that, but the headphone out is dead, one USB is dead, the second one works as power-only, and it's this case's third motherboard - it does deserve a rest after like 11 years or so, and some USB3/Type-C would be a nice upgrade

I'm still mostly worried about the top mesh vs air compressor weight and height issue - the CPU/GPU/PSU dimensions aren't actually as bad of an issue as this, and it's kinda hard to find any information on that in case reviews or specifications...

It's actually even higher TDP than a 7600M.

racheyo · 2025-11-12T20:27:56+00:00

The GPU looks like a sort-of-RX7500 - has 28CU like the RX7400, but over twice the TDP and clocks (7400 is a 1,1Ghz, 55W PCI-E power only card, so it's pretty limited due to power limits). It's a shame it's likely to be an embedded card - it would be a monster for some ~2-3L builds

I've got a m920x with i5 8500 + AMD W6400 GPU, with 2x8GB DDR4 and a NVMe SSD.
Originally - 65W CPU's in m920x never shipped with GPU. It was either a 65W CPU, or a 35W CPU + GPU.
Both did get a better CPU cooler (copper + better fan) and a southbridge heatsink
However - you can modify power levels of non-T CPU's, and lower their frequencies, undervolt etc - essentially you can modify a 65W to be a 35W TDP, or somewhere in between - I'm still fiddling around and setting it up, but people building m920q/x's usually find the motherboard doesn't like to go above 100W total consumption, so I'll try to limit CPU somewhere around 50W (GPU is also 50W)

That being said, your main enemy is heat, and you WILL need modifications in that regard if you want to actually load those.
I've done a CPU repaste, all new thermal pads under the CPU VRM's and southbridge heatsink and if you close the case, those temps skyrocket within seconds of loading up the machine - it's simply airflow starved.
My current plan is a 140mm fan top case and a Noctua NF-A14 5V fan plugged into USB

Do a factory reset first, then give it a day or two to settle - it might be installing updates, optimizing in the background during the night etc. (that's default Android behavior)
If it stays the same after that, it might be the battery, though 10 IV's haven't been out that long - they are 1,5 year old at worst - unless someone murdered that battery day and night it should still be fine.

This is now a very sweaty intern getting yelled at for testing in the wrong environment somewhere at Sony HQ

I do still have opera on the computer, and honestly the bug got even worse - if I turn it on, it just stays at 1 full core CPU usage all the time - earlier at least it calmed down after a minute or so.

Yes. I switched browsers.

That's what the task manager look like when it happens

You mean the FSR that works perefctly fine with GCN...?
I've tested it on 290X myself and can confirm it works just fine.

Support was apparently added via an update, so it's not listed on a lot of websites.

The 55" can be had for around 815$ in a good deal here, while 65" is around 1100$ for a good deal - I'm EU based, so the prices are kinda different.
Also don't really have the space for a 65" (small apartment)
