All for seeing more watercooling options entering the market - Intel just needs to keep moving forward with the Driver improvements (so far they look to be headed in the right direction).

Still rocking along with my MSI Aero OC 1080Ti that I picked up Open-Box back in '17 and snagged a EK FC block for it. Still does well at 1440p even in newer titles, but mainly play Destiny 2 the most. So far haven't jumped from my Pascal card since the value/performance/longevity isn't there...

I'm very much over-due for a rig update between my rig and my son's - other than I just updated his rig to a i3-10105/z590 UD board (was on a 3770/H61) but he is still rocking away on a RX580 8GB. Still in a debate on what to move to from my 1080Ti, since finding the right deal has not come...

Wish I paid attention for when this all happened..

finally got my switch films for my CM Pro S mod

I have a feeling they received limited stock like every other retailer does during a launch of a higher end GPU/Hardware. It drives up demand, but this should also allow AMD to fix the driver issues w/ this GPU. I want it to do well as I'd love to go back to the Red Team as Green Team has hit...

Would you consider selling the case vs trading?

Just picked up a 120GB SSD from MicroCenter to throw a copy of Mint 19 on, man I'm loving how much it has evolved over the past 5 years. I've loaded up Steam, Wine/PoL, & Lutris, so I'm trying to get Ring of Elysium to play via Linux. If I can get it to work along with some other titles I'll be...

Don't forget the optimizations that Adobe has input in Premier lately benefiting the Intel iGPU for those using Mainstream CPUs. Also I had heard of stability issues within Premier with Ryzen, guessing that was a bug that has been fixed as well.

x299's pricing is the reason why I moved from my 5930k to a 6900k, until socket 2066 is where it should be I wont be budging from x99. I've debated on moving to the CoffeeLake "Refresh" if it carries the promise of a low power (lower than 6900k at least) 8c/16t that I can affordably/easily...

I stick to EK's CryoFuel or Mayhems Pastel fluids, I've had zero issues using them and maintenance is simple enough to me with few issues if I run it over a 12+mo span.

Normally I try to keep my office in Atlanta at 17-20c so when I have my rig rendering a large project I'm not worried about it as much as when I'm in the Gallery during the summer since we have all the doors and windows open (no real need for A/C on Nantucket except for maybe a week out of the...

I would love to get a chiller setup for my office back in Atlanta, really would like to push my 6900k past 4.2Ghz - but currently my ambient temps in the Gallery aren't the greatest (25c-30c)
