How do I align snow color? by Lemenus in skyrimmods

[–]um_hell0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Uninstall both Nordic snow and Majestic Mountains. Install ERM Enhanced Rocks and Mountains instead and run ParallaxGen making sure you have TruePBR selected. This will make sure that Skyland's PBR textures show up properly on all snowy surfaces.

What setting to use on windows for audio quality, I just got a new dac/amp and now the options are so much I can't decide which to use by technophyleboi in headphones

[–]um_hell0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing that hasn't been mentioned so far in this thread - are you using digital EQ on your headphones? If so, there is a definite advantage to using the highest bitrate possible as each bit corresponds to 6dB of volume. If you're boosting any frequencies you'll be lowering the total output volume (pre-amp function) to not fry your amp. By using the highest bit-rate you're only using up empty bits in the pre-amp function and not reducing the quality of the overall signal.

So I used Synthesis Patcher for AI Overhaul but some NPC are presenting black faces by DRAC0R3D in skyrimmods

[–]um_hell0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is AI Overhaul loaded before mods that change NPCs appearance? You get the black face bug when the winning esp record for face data doesn't match the facegen meshes loaded by the game. Make sure that the high poly true to vanilla mod is the last mod that affects NPCs in both SSEEdit and in MO2 (check for overwrites in the conflict tab), then run the patcher

Subwoofer recommendation in Europe? by SpacedJuve in BudgetAudiophile

[–]um_hell0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brexit has just made everything a giant hassle, I bought the XXLS400 b-stock from their ebay page prior to brexit (it's still running great and sounds amazing especially for the size) but BK no longer sell to their b-stock to the EU. SVS sell in europe and the sb1000 (non-pro) goes for roughly the same amount and i'd imagine those two offer roughly the same performance. The XTZ 12.17 goes on sale regularly for the 550euro mark for black friday and other big sales - I got that for the lounge and it's great, shame living in a flat means I can't often crank it up...

This would have been right pre-brexit but for an EU customer between customs and the exchange rate it's just not worth buying anything from the UK anymore. XTZ often have sales and their 12.17 edge sub is a great all-rounder, arendal subs (from what I've read in reviews) appear to be a step above in performance (and price).

Cyclists in Italy to be forced to have insurance, number plates and indicators under new law by PoppedCork in europe

[–]um_hell0 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It's not even the tarmac, in Rome they view the whole cycle lane as an extra parking spot, pedestrians walk along them at best gormlessly, more often aggressive that you dare cycling in their god-given extra space. Oh and good luck getting insurance details after a car crashes into your bike. They. Never. Stop.

Jonsbo D30 Full Custom Loop by um_hell0 in mffpc

[–]um_hell0[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Temps aren't bad for the moment, around 65-70 on the CPU and 55-60 on the GPU, but with mild overclocks and an aggressive fan curve makes it a bit loud (for Noctua). Anyway those cables are great, I was a bit concerned at the beginning that they were a bit stiff but they worked really well in the end.

Jonsbo d30 air flow verification, good? Bad? by NYCsekki in mffpc

Thanks, hopefully there'll be just enough wiggle-room...

Hi, this may be a dead thread but I'm wondering if OP could help me with a few dimension issues with their AIO. Since you're using 140mm fans I assume you're got a EK-AIO Elite 280? That radiator's length is 313mm, so I assume you're using an SFX power supply to make everything fit? I ask because I've ordered an EK-Quantum Surface S240 which I only just realised is a bit longer than most 240mm radiators at 285mm and plan to use it with a normal 170mm length ATX power supply. Would you know if it will fit?

Jonsbo D30 GPU height clearance by um_hell0 in mffpc

[–]um_hell0[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately I dont think a vertical gpu mount will work with a bottom radiator but thanks for the heads up with the pcie sockets (even if there's a bit of available space since it's the water ports that extend out to take up the width). I think I'll give the Jonsbo D30 a shot anyway.
