All the good pastes are within a degree or two of each other. So any good one will work. I am using Noctua NT-H2 with great success. From stock, my temps are down alot. could they go down and extra deg using liquid metal? probably. Is it worth it for all the effing around most definitely NOT.

Agreed @ryan. All this debloat this, and change that does nothing to the function of your pc, It only changes the thoughts inside your head that make you think microsoft is spying on you for some nefarious reason. I used to change all this crap and remove "junk" from windows thinking it works faster and better, but it's all a farce.

Safe places to get wallpapers? ultra wide screen, 4k etc.
kojack replied to kojack's topic in General Discussion
That's what I have been doing for years, but lately I have just been getting places where you have to physically download stuff. I am not into that one. -
My 150 dollar Samsung galaxy tab A8 can do this as well. Pop the SD card in for media. Great tablet with great battery life. Another option is an older iPad and go that route.

I downloaded and installed cutefish OS. Only to find out after when reading about some issues I was having that it was not being supported anymore and that it's DOA. So I removed it from the partition. Now I am downloading Deepin 23 beta. It looks really nice and should be fun to try out. I think I erased part of my windows partition on the laptop. No matter as it was my sons old device which nothing on it was important. I will just format the SSD and away we go. Best part it has an extra 16gb ssd built in I an use for cache and whatnot as well.

So, we are in a place where tornados were never a thing. Yesterday, there were 3 spotting of them. Seriously people...we are EFF'ed.
-
Yeah, It's bad enough that we get it for a few days up here. You guys get it for months on end...ewwww. I hate snow but the cold is fine! ha ha.

We, here in Newfoundland have an abundance of water right now...Maybe different in the future, but it does rain ALOT here. Just hasn't in the past 2 weeks and it's HOT AS F....BRUTAL! It's a little more bearable today with the lower humidity today. It was sticky this morning, but now at 1:50pm it's drying up in the air a bit. Still 32 deg here right now.
-
That's why I do it mainly. Pain, relax and sleep relief. Side effect of chillin out listening to music is awesome! I do get more creative using as well!

The watermelon sour sounds awesomely interesting. I have been partaking in N/A beers and spirits lately as the hangovers are BRUTAL lately. Sign of getting old. One wonderful thing cannabis does. NO hangy....also, you always have your "wits" about you. Not like when you are really drunk where you just flop all over the place. ha ha.

You are going to have to go WAY north...or better yet, south. I am fairly north in a "temperate" climate. I guess temperate means G/D HOT now. 42deg here yesterday. I had a house in florida for 14 years and never felt it as hot as it was here yesterday. We used to go to the house in the summer too as we liked the area without the winter tourists.

You are not being paranoid at all. Do whatever makes you feel safe. I took mine off as we have a smaller population here. I can see how heat triggers anxiety. I was out in the evening, my core temps are still up (maybe due to the beer I was drinking as well), but I don't feel good today. Stay safe and happy!
-
I don't know. 36 deg c, feels like 42 deg c is a bit too much for here. It's bonkers hot. I feel like I live in Australia right now. We sat out and removed some consumables from the fridge and container in our garage (😉) and it was HOT then, and we were in the evening shade. The ole' heat pumps are working hard to keep us cool inside. Yes, Canada is on fire right now. ALOT of fires this year. Everything in the backcountry here is extremely dry and combustible.

I have watched/read a few reviews on it, and they said that it's basically silent. So, I dunno, if I don't like it I will return it and get the ProArt Graphics card.

kojack replied to Mr. Fox's topic in Desktop Hardware
I use dual monitors for photo/video/graphics work. Alot of my software takes advantage of dual monitor setups where as "splitting the screen" with a large monitor would not work the same. Now, I am just used to dual. I have email and phone link open on one, and then either office, browser etc open on the other. I don't really game. Maybe play decenders or forza every now and then. I went back and forth before ordering the stand with should I get a 43" tv, or a 38" ultra wide, but using my dual 24"s are fine, and I keep my touchscreen for editing which I like alot better than mouse inputs. -
I will get a couple more. This is the only one I have right now, and my freakin iphone set to the screen brightness, and I didn't catch it and was in a rush.

Yes, the hyperencode was an awesome feature that I was looking at. it crushed everything for creative workloads because of it. Not the "best" at gaming but thats only a 1 percent use case for my pc.
-
Like I said, it won't be for awhile yet. I will be using the asus proart z790 and Noctua 4080. Tech notice did a very similar build as well.

have intel deep six'ed their entire graphics card plans? Or have they just stop selling their own branded version. They had alot of promise for creatives like myself.

I talked about it a bit, but I am just waiting until we get some more income coming in from our business. I am planning on a new fractal North case, ProArt build.

I am always here. Every morning I check in, and fart around. Life is busy for sure. Enjoy the family brother! My lowly 2070 super can't hold a candle to the 4090, but as time goes on, it will be replaced with my beast I am going to start building soon! ha ha.

I am going to come back to this one. Anyone know how I could figure out how to get a 1080 panel on this system?

Here's a look at the completed new dual monitor stand. it's dark I know. I had crappy light, plus my iPhone used the screens to judge the picture. You can see my wifes dell inspiron 11 3000 doing it's updates too. -

kojack replied to kojack's topic in General Discussion
Not really, but thanks a million for the suggestions. I use wallpaperhub.app for a bunch but lately I am liking graphic / cgi wallpapers. I have one now that is pretty cool and spanned across my two screens. I would like to find more like it. I will keep investigating places. thanks again!
