What's your latest tech purchase?

It says "Memory for AMD" and "AMD Expo" right there on the box.
The older ones without that logo were the issue


Also, page 666 - Hail W1zzard

shop notifying me of a delay ... monday morning, so, i think "fudge me, i will receive them wednesday" ...

6chf/$ i could not resist ...

yep, gonna be good, Onza really like their Porcupine, they were nominated test winner in sept 2022 alongside their Ibex (which are the dry packed downhill type while the Porcs are more allrounder) to the point that even their tubes packaging promote them :laugh:
the tool from BBB is a dream, so freaking easy to work with ... until now i only worked with the generic plastic tyre lever, the one with the hook on them, never ever :laugh: (did not even need the easy fit mounting fluid, although for tubeless it will be needed to seat the beads properly )

2nd test for the pump 3 bar to set the beads in the hooks, strangely enough, i think it took less than 2 minutes per wheel, the pump did not even get hot

gorgeous... indeed (and 0.20in wider, 61-584 ETRTO versus 57-584)

yep yep yep, 300% satisfied (am i efficient or what?!? 100% per "yep" :laugh: )

i love Onza little details, yep my rim are tubeless ready, although the tape is a bit sloppy in the application but still okay and my "bikebox" is slowly filling up. (yes i keep all package, just in case :laugh: )

Luckily no snow shoveling needed this time of year... :D
yeah, not like when i received it :laugh:
received it today .... hilariously, the night before was : snow ... ~20cm of it, but the road are clean :) center drive are practical, unlike rear drive you can still pedals unhindered when the battery is dead or on flat ground to spare the battery.
i did ride it on snow, 45-50km/h with 2-5cm on the road ... was ... fun, just need to brake well in advance (no hard braking) turn without sudden movement was all i needed to negotiate the u-turn near my home :laugh:

if someone see me riding on snow with the new tyres : "uh? what the...." (front or behind, side would look a little awkward with the skinwall )

What a beautiful view you have there @GreiverBlade
that's going out from the garage


number 1 and 2 are taken from my workplace

Does it help? I have the Thermal Grizzly offset fitting, but it only drops around 1-3 °C, while making installation a lot more fiddly, so I'm not using it.
It helps with inserting the brass tubing, yes. I noticed the alphacool fitting had less restriction than the 2 bitspower variants (combined even worse).
But I haven't finished the build yet as I still need to cut 2 tubes to length, find a good spot for the Aqua-Computer inline water temp sensor, and fill'r up again.
The other temp meter is too large to fit in any of the blocks/rads :(

I've seen those online too, and they seemed too large to use in 99% of loops - it'd probably be usable as the fill cap on my res for example, but then it'd undergo all the twisting of the cable
 
I didn't know Hynix made SSDs. Nand chips, yes, but whole drives? Interesting.
 
I bought the chair I have now (CXO Nightingale) about a year ago used from an office supply store.
It was $500 and I regret nothing, best one I've ever owned.

Prime day price was $277.70 plus the extra 1% cash back hit my target price of $275. Picked up the Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE for $30 too. And a new dremel with kit for $30. Let's go!
 
This is many months worth of stuff (not pictured is a bass amp). Two routers because my old TP-Link Archer C20 (the cheapest one they had!) is on its way out and so is my parents network stuff, so the Asus is for them. The mouse was because there was talks they they would be discontinued, and it was on a sale, the 8bitdo pad because I wanted a better pad and it was on sale (it didn't help though, as the main game I want to play with it - Dreamfall: The Longest Journey - doesn't recognise it). The mixer because I needed a mixer but it turned out that I didn't need it, the Zoom H1 because I wanted a decent USB microphone and that is it.

Nice! Great pickup on both counts, enjoy! :D

Nice controller it looks like a mix between nes and playstation.

How fast is the internet speeds you are preparing to run with that TP-Link Archer C80?

Only 100mbps as of now. Cheaper options avaliable elsewhere, but it was on sale and so was the Asus from the same shop.
 
For me 100Mbps is quite enough, although I happen to have a bit more.

Yes. Physical knobs, sockets, switches, lights, meters, sliders. No need to explain, :rockout:
 
Well i couldnt help myself....

Me either, got the 2TB version for $108.49 USD. Too great of a deal too pass on. I already have two of the 1TB's and they're great. Both of the ones I have benchmark faster than the advertised speed. I was hoping the Solidigm P44 Pro 2TB would be the same price but they didn't get the Prime discount. They're essentially the same drive (I have a 1TB of that one too).
 
Bought Some Watercooling stuff From Aliexpress: IceManCooler Full Nickel CPU Water Block - All Modern Cpu compatible: amd and intel.
IceManCooler Dual D5 Series PUMP Top. Will be testing later today
