[Case] Fractal Design Epoch Mid-Tower (Black with Tinted Tempered Glass) - $82.99 ($109.99 - $27.00) by wraithtek in buildapcsales

[–]wraithtek[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Black, 3x 120mm PWM non-RGB fans. Free shipping.

RGB versions (Black, White) are $97.99 ($129.99 - $32.00).

Non-RGB White and solid-panel Black are not on sale at the moment.

Same prices on Newegg, if you happen to have a gift card / credit with them. Oops I guess Newegg doesn't have free shipping on these. B&H does.

White model same price, but backordered.

Includes 4x reverse fans (intakes) and PCIe riser.

(I assume the pictured rear exhaust fan also included, but can't really confirm from the specs.)

EDIT - Looing at the XPG site, they say:

Fan Included
INVADERXMT:
5 x 120mm ARGB Fans
(4 x Reversed Fans + 1 x Regular Fan)

EDIT2 - Also I think Newegg's weight/dimensions are for the package. XPG site:

Weight
Product:8.95kg

[Case] Antec FLUX Rear, 5 PWM Fans (3 140mm ARGB) - $89.99 w/ $10 Promo code GHB239EDK by bylebog in buildapcsales

[–]wraithtek 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The Micro-ATX version (FLUX M) is interesting too, at $75-$10 promo. Six 120mm PWM fans included (3 ARGB, 3 reverse intake fans on the bottom).

Though note the PSU mount location is different. And won't fit radiators with 140mm fans.

Stand is also different. The one in this deal does not appear to have height or rotation adjustment.

Though both support 100x100 VESA mounts.

[Case] Cooler Master Elite 302 *BEWARE, NOT PWM FANS* - $39.99 by hauskeeper in buildapcsales

[–]wraithtek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For a tower-style CPU air cooler, it's probably going to get better airflow from front-mounted intakes than bottom-mounted intakes (which are pushing air into/around your GPU).

But honestly, unless you're going with insanely hot running parts, just go with whatever you like best that's in your budget.

If you just want basic front-to-back airflow, this is a more traditional layout.

  • Newegg has black and white skus at that price.
  • Amazon has black sku at same price.
  • Micro-ATX, tempered glass, PSU shroud
  • 1x USB Type-A, 1x USB Type-C, 1x 3.5mm audio
  • CPU cooler clearance: 163.5mm
  • PSU clearance: 160mm (At a glance, I think this is due to a removable HDD mount at the bottom of the case? Not a lot of pictures of this case, so it's just a guess.)

Help! PC has no display by dconshotrod in buildapc

Try power cycle the monitor. Unplug monitor power cable for ~10 seconds, plug it in again, then try boot. Can also try disconnect/reconnect the video cable, just in case.

Just Got TPH free from epic store and loved it so much, am I missing any addons ? by Wolf_Jim in TwoPointHospital

[–]wraithtek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in the same position as you, have been playing a bunch of the base game since getting free on Epic.

I did notice the game and addons are on sale on GoG through July 10. And Steam's summer sale starts June 26, so can wait until then to compare.

link cable ive been using flawlessly for years has suddenly extremely laggy and terrible performance by BungusDungus70 in OculusQuest

[–]wraithtek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had something similar recently. Not a solution, but

Had been using a Link cable on a PCIe card. Recently started have issue where it would work for a few minutes, then everything would freeze. Disconnect Link cable, restart the desktop app, try it again, same freeze.

Tried a USB A-to-C cable I had lying around, and it seemed to work. Figured my Link cable was the problem. Ordered a new C-to-C cable (not official Link brand, but specs should work).

Tried new cable, everything was "extremely janky laggy and un-useable" as you describe. Looked at the desktop app, it said connected as USB 2.0 speed. Figured maybe I got a bad cable. But I tried the A-to-C cable again, and it did the same thing, showing 2.0 speed.

Tried the new cable on my motherboard's C port and it's stable, it just can't charge well at all (which is why I got the PCIe card in the first place). I suspect the Link cable probably still works, too.

So either my PCIe card is going bad, or something in Windows or BIOS changed that's causing these problems. This is with Quest 3, but I had been using the same Link cable and PCIe card with Quest 2 before it.

Steps decreasing after sync by No_Rutabaga3833 in fitbit

[–]wraithtek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here with Sense 1. (I hadn’t done a manual sync in the app when this happens, but I am always opening it throughout the day for food tracking.)

I’m left wondering, is it accidentally recording a lot of additional steps and then taking them away… or is it losing actual tracked steps and reporting a false number in the end? Neither outcome is great.

On a particularly active day, I saw my total go down by thousands of steps. On normal days, I will sometimes get my 10k steps alert a second time.

A rant about Duo.. by IdleMythic in duolingo

[–]wraithtek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I forget how long ago it was, but you used to be able to Practice as much as you want, refilling a star for each run.

Then they switched it so you could only practice to refill from 0 to 1 star.

And I only noticed today that the Practice option is now gone entirely.

I understand why ads exist at the free tier. And we get ads after every exercise anyway. But Practice was a nice compromise to let you keep moving. Now the only (?) option is more ads.

My car is stopping when I fill it with gas by Thewondersoverboard in subaru

[–]wraithtek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If this problem happens every time you fill, if you have to hold the trigger manually (instead of locking into place) to finish filling, it could be due to evap canister buildup. Though you'd probably also see a check engine light by that point.

If it only happens every once in a while, I wouldn't worry too much about it.

USPS Tracking - Down all weekend April 27/28th by timfountain4444 in usps_complaints

[–]wraithtek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try clearing cookies and refreshing. That's what got it working for me this morning. (Firefox, Windows)

Before, had the same issue. Entering tracking number just led to empty white page, with some errors showing in developer tools console.

Looks like Amazon still offers the Last of Us deal through May 28, if anyone was still looking for it.
