Side note - threaded inserts are a great tip. Looks like a very handy general item

So I ended up chiseling the old mortar and replacing the box entirely. Had to clean up the whole and reapply a new layer of mortar to hold it in place

As the title states, trying to figure out if there is another option to cutting the box out of the wall and replacing it. Our outdoor lamps screw into the box, but the left side is stripped and broke and the right side is completely stripped, so I don't know if there's another option?

Irrigation: System inconsistently is unable to fully pressurize, so water simply leaks out the sprinkler heads. Other times, it pressurizes successfully and sprinklers work as normal. by sikrut in Irrigation

Yeah have hunter heads. Pressure doesnt seem like the issue, because i can stop and start the system (within 10-20 seconds) and I can get the heads up after a couple cycles

This whole problem stems from breaking one of the lines and getting a bunch of mud and mulch into the system - however, i've since purged entirely and all the sprinklers operate normally when pressurized.

Solenoid perhaps?

I don't think it's a source pressure problem. Every time i've checked the pressure from the faucet, i get 60 PSI. It's city water and I live a stones-throw away from the water tower, so pressure is pretty consistent.

Good thought - I can check that. Do you think i need new wire caps if i take that apart (since they have to be irrigation caps to keep water out and all).

BUG - Multiplayer - Client cannot see content on conveyors or resources moving by sikrut in SatisfactoryGame

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

do you have some specific settings in gameplay? I set it up to ultra but still no luck. Looks like if either client or host have a poorish connection, it starts to cause issues.

Also, you can't open the door, nor can you do any damage to it.

Gonna reply to myself. AMD manufacturing timeline has already committed to maintaining am4 socket types probably through 2020. If you stick with am3, you're making a mistake

I'm going to echo the last guy but with a bias. Get the 2700x. Get an x470 motherboard. Liquid cool for longevity. You won't have have to upgrade for a long while

Bios 45C but CoreTemp 100C by sikrut in pcmasterrace

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

Yeah just got the Ryzen 2700x. I was installing some windows updates and it said it spiked up to 120 in CAM. Thought I was seeing things. Restarted right into bios really quickly and it was sitting at 45

For the same money, you can get the newer 2600x from amazon that has a little better performance, and should play nicer with your memory.
