Random Thoughts.....What Are You Thinking?

Paid almost $3000 for new computer parts today

Jeeze, must be a super computer. I got that new Embody x Logitech chair, I hope its worth it!

Case: Lian Li PC-O11AIR
Motherboard: Gigabyte X570 Aorus Pro
CPU: Ryzen 7 3700X
Cooler: 360mm Alphacool Eisbaer Aurora
RAM: 32GB Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 3600MHz
GPU: RTX 3090 FTW3 (pending preorder)
Storage: 3x NVME 4.0 1TB Sabrent SSDs

CPU is temporary til the next gen Ryzens come out this winter. GPU accounts for over half the price of the entire thing cause I am dumb.


That chair looks fancier than my back deserves.

but why

The Namek line begins!

Former Pittsburgh Steeler Linebacker Kevin Greene's Hall of Fame bust looks like old Thor- not Odin, mind you, just an old Thor.

There are courses in fur studies at a few universities!

>>;... my mind is weird

I really dont know why people complain with WotG. Obviously CoP is the shittiest...

Im doing this to get mules access to reforge, currently on Three Paths and this mission is basically masochist, insane.

Oh ***. The Boys season two is live already. *** yeah. Thought I was going to have to wait till midnight at least.

... The scene they ended season one on better not get yada yada'd over. They better come back and explain how he just walked away, totally not dead. That's really annoying.

Had a great anniversary at the beach, went to a great pizza place and finished off with a brewery, considering it's the Friday before labor day I thought it was going to be nutso but was pretty chill, thanks covid!

You got Ryan to go on the sand?

I'm surprised he didn't sink with his lead head

42 C today and 44 tomorrow? can’t believe I am looking forward to a Monday lol

New rig's ready to go for Ampere. RGB is a massive pain in the *** prob just gonna turn it all off. Ended up going with:

Case: Coolermaster Masterbox TD500 Mesh
Motherboard: Gigabyte Aorus X570 Pro Wifi
CPU: 3900X (4.4GHz all core @ 1.36v, best cores on each CCX @ 4.5~4.6)
RAM: 32GB 3600MHz Corsair Vengeance Pro RGB (Uplifted to 3800MHz to match 1900IF OC)
Storage: 2x 2TB Sabrent Rocket Q 4.0, 1x 1TB Samsung 860 EVO

What I'd do differently: The motherboard and the RAM kit. RGB Fusion does not work, can not control any of the lighting at all. Might have to *** around with how theyre connected to the motherboard or something. RAM kit is slow. Timings are very bad, did not realize it was CL18 until after. Would go with some Trident Z or something for tighter, more malleable timings. Overall all set for Ampere though, will see if I make any further adjustments to this in the next couple weeks. The 1060 i had laying around being held up by the anti-sag bracket meant for the 3090 is just as hilarious irl as it is in the picture.

I'll never understand the fascination with the RGB, like it's super cool for about 5 minutes, and then I would never want to see it again. And it's bright. as. ***. overwhelming.

Like, instead of fading lights 24/7 on my pc I would hook up some string lights and turn them on/off when I want instead.

Yea wouldn't have gotten it at all but it feels like everything is RGB now

I gave up on lights in my computer when I switched to laptops due to a somewhat peregrinatious lifestyle.

I would still travel well over 1k miles over 5 days 4 - 6 times a year if it wasn't for the obvious.

Fixed the RGB Sync. Resoldered a couple of pins to make gigabyte play nice with industry standard

Finally sorta completed this set. You can really tell the difference up close between the official SE one and ones from 3rd party. Might have to get the officials ones to replace them.

I see that Digimon behind Barret trying to be part of FF7!

When you log off you chars thinking its update day, because you lost track of date and you realize it and need to log everyone back..

it's an interesting perspective now that I'm a Californian lol

Try not to get banned for political things, not the greatest time to post it
