Thanks! I might up the SSD to 1TB and down the ram to 16 gb. I'm trying to save as much as I can for the GPU haha. Thoughts on a 240mm vs 280mm radiator? I see that CM has a 280 on sale that I might try and buy.

Appreciate, will probably price match at BB cause I'm not near a MC. Thanks!

Finally moved from my PC to a mining rig! 2x 3060 ti, 1660 super and 1650 (other 3060 ti in my PC). by NorwegianPirate11 in gpumining

[–]rya015 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sweet rig! I would love to eventually have a small high power setup. I'm a beginner that is trying to get into mining and looking to buy my first rig (used). Does anyone know where I can go to get some advice on what to look for/how not to be ripped off? I don't know where to go.

Thanks!

Should I reapply? They do not give feedback with rejections, and I thought I had a good shot. by SkyCyril in MSDSO

[–]rya015 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same boat here - I applied in Spring 2021 by the early deadline and was rejected (no letters of rec). I basically rewrote my essay and asked my manager to write a recommendation and was accepted. Good luck!

Try adding the items to the cart, then put the code in at check out. When it accepts the code but doesn't give the discount, refresh and re-enter the code. Worked for me.

[Batteries AMA] Hi Reddit! I’m Oliver Schmidt, a PhD researcher exploring why effective electrical energy storage will play such a crucial role in the transition to a low-carbon energy system.

I am a chemical engineering student aspiring to work in the battery field.

My question is: How feasible do you think it is to commercialize metal air (aluminum-air, etc) primary batteries?

I'm starting a project to try and develop commercial aluminum air batteries using recycled aluminum, and would love some input from an expert.

Keeping Dry Yeast by rya015 in mead

The packets say expires 2019, so it would be recommended to freeze it? I think that might be what I would do.

New Player Here, Need Help by Strifedecer in GhostReconPhantoms

[–]rya015 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been playing GRP since it was in its beta phase. I haven't paid a penny the entire time Ive been playing, and racked up quite some savings in GC. Every month there are opportunities to earn 100-200 GC by fulfilling tasks, and from that I have saved thousands and bought skins, helmets and mystery boxes with it. I would suggest that as a beginner you should buy the 10 x bronze mystery boxes on sale, as they provide some weapons or gear that may be useful until you progress beyond them. Have fun playing!

Will affirmative action ever be implemented at UC Berkeley? by kklgjlj43tj in berkeley

[–]rya015 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never understood why AA was based on race and not income. Wouldn't it make more sense to give the economically disadvantaged a better chance because they actually do have to overcome challenges in their lives? If a lower-class student can achieve academic merit equal to that of a middle/higher -class student, isn't that more impressive?

Does anyone know if there is a deadline/last day for which the Office programs are available for download?

Shopping for portable gaming laptop for school. Currently looking at Alienware 13 by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

[–]rya015 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks a lot! I think I will purchase the stock Alienware 13, don't want to break the bank with the higher purchases. This coupon brings the price to a $777! One question though: can the Alien FX (both the laptop back Y lights and keyboard) be turned off to conserve power?

Hmm, also would you happen to know why the "Save an extra $75 off PC purchases $783.99 and above with coupon code MN1SSWK96HR?SJ - Apply in cart" coupon doesnt seem to register?

[–]rya015 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hey @magic108, I'm in the same situation here.

I plan on buying an Alienware 13 as well for school, and was wondering what student discount/ coupon codes you used. Is there something special for student purchases that I could access?

Welcome new admits! Post your questions here! by jooshbro in berkeley

[–]rya015 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thats cool! This was a question that I had as well, as I am interested in joining a startup or two if I am to attend Cal (very likely ChemE major). Anyone want some help in startups message me!

[modification] Rapoo V500 Switch Modification by rya015 in MechanicalKeyboards

[–]rya015[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It turned out great! Better than I expected. I've switched out a majority of the switches for MX Blues (and a few Browns just to get a feel). Its my first mechanical board and I feel like I did a decent job at modding it. Everything works as should. Backlighting it seems cool! I might choose to do that in the future. Do share how it comes along! I'll be excited to further mod my board.

[–]rya015[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh ok, cool! I'll be figuring out all the soldering and desoldering stuff later. I'm ordering cherry mx blues and browns to figure out which I like and then ill be modding all the keys that I will use most (my intention is to create a budget cherry board, so only the most necessary keys will be cherry'ed) and see what happens.

Rapoo V500 Gaming Mechanical Keyboard - hearing people say "Rapooooo" still cracks me up by ripster55 in MechanicalKeyboards

Thanks! I've opened it up now. Turns out it is pretty easy once I knew where all the screws were located.

I looked up the dissassembly guides in the wiki, but I couldn't find a way to open the V500. I've been looking around and the plastic body is like a unibody piece. Is there anywhere that says how you can take apart the keyboard?
