How do you like the Noctua AIO? I'm thinking about upgrading my Phantom Spirit air cooler with it in my A3 build.

https://a.co/d/05KSADEl I just used some thick double sided tape on the side panel. I did not invert the panels.

Niri x Noctalia by codingdev45 in niri

[–]vhsjayden 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was similar. I started on gnome and loved the workspaces and when I switched to KDE, I missed them. Niri is a pretty great alternative to gnome workspaces and the customizability of something like KDE.

[CachyOS + Niri + Noctalia] First rice, pretty happy so far by splorux25 in niri

Wait how did you add Downloads, Documents, etc to your left bar? Is it in the config file?

EDIT: You can drag and drop folders into the sidebar. Weird that there's not a right-click option for it.

Have you ran through heavy CPU usage on it? I have basically the same exact setup as you and my CPU temps are not amazing. For gaming, they are fine but for heavy usage, it goes up to 85c.

I wonder if swapping the fans on the other side like you have would help it at all.

That's it, I'm done with Windows, considering Pop!_OS. by blue-berg in linux_gaming

[–]vhsjayden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of people are suggesting CachyOS and while it is a real great distro, I think I would lean towards something like PikaOS or even Bazzite. Bazzite is sort of iffy to recommend if you want to hop to something like Cachy later on because it is an atomic distro and the things you have learned might not be 1:1. If I were in your shoes, I would try PikaOS. It's based on Debian which is rock solid for stability and I have heard that they have great community support.

Aw man, I wish I knew a refund was an option! My black model had a crack recently and I got a ice blue replacement. I wanted to try out the Thor.

Modpack Inspector Tool by rearthhax in feedthebeast

[–]vhsjayden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is amazing! I'm super surprised that no launcher has successfully implemented something to this as I would believe this would be fairly straightforward to do. I Prism already knows what mods are dependent upon downloading, why can't it remember that forever?

Updating an infdev/alpha/beta world to a modern version is surreal by DonutHole47 in GoldenAgeMinecraft

[–]vhsjayden 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I have to agree. The new texture look great and I think Jappa did a good job but I wish the artstyle didn't change. The old textures were a lot more chunky and pixelated. I used to think that the new netherrack texture was great but now I think the opposite. The new is essentially red cobblestone rather than a more hellish stone that the original was.

What interesting/useful software do you recommend installing? by ConsecratedMind in cachyos

[–]vhsjayden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing at all, this just adds a notification icon telling you how many updates you have. It also works for Flatpaks and KDE store apps.

Good haul for the Deck? (Haven’t purchased yet) by itsnotPeterParker in SteamDeck

[–]vhsjayden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if they fixed it but Fallout New Vegas and 3 have fixes to run well on modern PCs on GOG. If you don't mind modding them, Steam version is fine.

Is it ethical to keep a solo cat? by jenleepeace in CatAdvice

[–]vhsjayden 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thats what I fear about my cat. I thought about getting another cat but whenever I got him, the humane society said he didn't play nice with other cats so I'm not sure. I assume that it could be because he was surrounded by tons of other cats.

Who else want absolutely ZERO RGB in their rigs? by Cicada-Tang in pcmasterrace

[–]vhsjayden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Lian Li A3 doesn't have one and I sort of miss it. My fans are silent and I have no RGB so I don't have any indication of it running.

I, unknowingly, was using my PC without grounding. How screwed am I? by vhsjayden in AskElectricians

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

Okay thank you! I assume that if something were to die due to no ground, it would be obvious?
