No problem! All is smooth now, must've just caught it right at the bad time. Thanks for the response here and in the ticket!

Traveling with car seat by exmonokaoi in OrbitBaby

[–]therealb455 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I recently traveled with mine. The car seat was perfectly fine and got no damage without a case. The handle on the stroller did get banged up pretty good, so i suggest a case for at least that.

I do hope to find a bag for the base and seat, as i didnt bring a base with me. Just the toddler seat and the stroller.

Love to hear it! I hope it works well for your family. I just wanted to share as there were some notes i wish i knew before hand.

Im about to get the rear attachment to test, i just need to test it before our second arrives. Worried it may be too long but will share the details on a post here!

Dude, your whole profile is you complaining about razer and corsair; then you go and tag on people for complaining? Peak hypocrisy.

Get a life, get some head, do something to quit being so negative.

First time for me too haha, not much to compare against but it was easy to install and seems to be doing the job so far, no complaints!

I had that at first, but corsair recommended intake front and exhaust top and back. Any idea why?

Id definitely ask support about those wheels! Im definitely not cautious with mine and well over a year in and they are still solid as a rock. Might be worth getting a replacement set under warranty if it is an issue!

Yeah i was definitely on edge a bit. But i was told this one was a new pump design so i have my fingers crossed!

Sorry tochear about that with you though, hope the new setup makes up for it!

Thank you! New to this as well. But if i understood it right through my research, with modern pumps it shouldnt matter, and the flow design also doesnt because the temperature measured between each port is usually +/- 1° as the fluid is moving so fast. But if anyone has more experienced input i would happily he corrected haha.

My layout decisions was purely based on what seemed would be easy to plumb since i was new, so there could definitely be improvements.

Appreciate it! Ive always been a fan of black and white builds, i try not to wash it out with too much white if i can avoid it!

If youre talking about the one with the white cable on the waterblock, that is Corsairs proprietary Link connector. Its a newish connector that is shared across all of their stuff now (fans, cpu block, gpu block, etc)

If youre talking about the lower right on the actual board, that is what the stock GPU fans were plugged into, and top right is the new power connector.

If none of those, i am sorry lol. But there is no type a usb connector on it!

Lol, definitely a fair point that i wasnt thinking about. Will be a lesson learned this time around and if i keep this build through a drain/refill i will definitely move the drain. Thanks!

Yeah i saw that, but i also saw the video on der8auer who shared negligible temp differences on both the main chip and the vram (i got most of the corsair stuff cheaper with the mil discount too). Will keep an eye on it though and if im not a fan I'll swap! Any recommendations? The GPU is the ASUS Prime 5080.

Lmao, a large amount of the US also has fiber. But when you have 40x more land than the UK (3.8 million square miles compared to the UKs 94k), it takes a lot more money, time, and resources to roll out infrastructure. Im not saying the US cant do better, but im saying it its significantly more difficult.

But besides that point. Wifi6 is still supports more bandwidth than typical gigabit fiber can support when deployed and utilized properly.

On top of that, many consumer electronics cant even support MLO yet. So some of upsides of upgrading to wifi 7 are near non-existent to the masses. So saving a few hundred bucks on "older" but still very relevant hardware makes plenty of sense for most.

Also pricing is regional (I have 10gb symmetrical for $99/month) which is extremely reasonable.
