I'm starting to think half of the people trying to teach OP how to solder have never held a soldering iron before. You could crank the heat to 500°C and submerge the PSU in flux but it wouldn't make a difference. There is just too much mass to heat up. A 15$ gas soldering iron is a good investment for stuff like this as they can put out some serious heat, and if it's still not enough you can always dual wield with your normal iron.

That's just flase. Most cases have rubber feet, the metal doesn't even come in contact with the floor. With your logic it will explode even if you set it on a wooden floor, as the rubber is softer than most hardwoods. Also I don't understand the deflection argument you're trying to make. Last time I checked the glass doesn't explode by simply lifting a pc, and surely that's putting way more stress in the case compared to a floor that's a few mm off level.

Of course the glass could spontaneously explode if it had a manufacturing defect, but in that case the floor material wouldn't matter.

I replaced the stock TIM with some PTM7950 as well. It really is a must do for those cards. With 7$ on aliexpress It went from hitting 110°C at 310W to being able to go past 360W without throttling. (365W in the winter and 355W in the summer never goes above 105C while gaming)

I upgraded from a 1080 to a 6900xt last year, the leap was bigger than expected.

Also the difference in heat output was way bigger than expected, my 1080 drew just shy of 220W and the 6900xt sits around 340-360W. Less than 150W difference but it feels like my room is heating twice as fast now.

More like a good enough keyboard for the average user for a extremely cheap price. Or can you do better for 7$?

I have a 6900xt. I have a different tune for winter and summer to always keep the hotspot just barely below 110°C. Those AMD card run really hot.

There is one simple rule: never open your case on a hard surface like tiles, put it on a carpet or your bed. Every time a broken side panel is posted OP dropped it while trying to remove it. As long as you are a bit careful your side panel will outlive you.

How dare you have an opinion! The hivemind decided tempered glass is bad, you have one hour to start dislinking it as well.

I would try to return it. If you can't then bending the pin back is not too hard, you just need a steady hand and a sharp tool (and maybe a magnifying glass). The most important thing is to not bend it too much, you don't have to get it perfect and you really don't want to break it.

Stefan from CNC Kitchen made a few videos about this. It's a great channel.

I actually like the new one, as long as it's not 3px wide.

I have yet to build a custom keyboard but it's still too expensive for now. I'm still using my old trusty Corsair K70 LUX but it's starting to show it's age.

I think the gpu would need to draw more than 500W before something like that could become a problem. As long as the psu and cable aren't cheap crap ofc.

Edit: Also it looks like OP is using 3 separate cables

I personally wouldn't have any problem doing this, but I'm not sure if i would recommend it. Heat is not a problem, but microvibrations from the fans could be enough to make the sharp fins cut the insulation. If you end up doing this visually inspect the cable a few times a year, just to make sure there are no cuts forming.

Is that ABS? I've had something like this happen before, it looked like z-banding but in the end it was just and old spool of ABS that really hated life. Every other spool printed just fine on the same machine.

I like the hand bobbing but the entire screen shaking is annoying. Luckily there are mods that do exactly that.

I've been abusing my x360 14 for years and the hinge still feels brand new. Don't know if the hinge is actually good or if I just got lucky.

Most of the time I don't really mind graffiti on trains, there are some really talented people making them. But I hate when they are just huge letters that look like shit and cover up the windows, that's just vandalism with no artistic value.

SONY's own android TVs don't support bluetooth audio (without third party apps)

Abs isn't as brittle as pla and doesn't snap with sharp edges, it actually is better. But maybe I'm just a bad person that hates animals, my cats always go outside and play with sticks that look way sketchier than a little piece of filament.

LTT made a video about a really cool NAS board a few weeks ago, It took nvme drives and was surprisingly cheap (less than 100$). It had really low power consumption and a 2.5Gb ethernet port, and if you don't need a nas you can always just treat it as a overqualified external drive.

Not sure if it counts as an accessory, but for me it's the monitor. More specifically I would absolutely love to have that flexing screen from corsair, but it's wayy above my budget. I'm waiting for someone to release a 27" QHD curved oled monitor for a reasonable price.

I really like overture filaments. I usually pay around 18€ per spool.
