Hi,
Damn hope those wipes are better than the crappy ones noctua adds to inflate their price.
I bought some more mx-6 that didn't come with any wipes thankfully I prefer good alcohol.

4x Arctic P14 and 4x P12 for my O11 Air Mini.
still impressed that a 5 pack is cheaper than one noctua fan.
I can't say enough words of praise for the Arctic brand. Their P series fans are a rock solid budget option, and they don't have any serious competition in that quality/price segment. Their QC is excellent and customer support flawless, unlike some. :) Phanteks international customer support still didn't respond on my mail from 3 days ago.

I discovered Arctic years ago and have been using them ever since. Funnily I have never had any issues with my Phanteks fans but they got more expensive than necessary so.

fans in general seem way overpriced these days. I mean yeah they are super durable, so i guess the companies need to rake in the money somehow?\

for me. Long live coolermaster sickleflow :D

I have issue that 1 out of 3 came faulty from the factory. Nonexistent QC, worker having a bad day? The most expensive fan in its class?
My man, we are all fine with brands until something goes wrong. Then it's up to them to fix the problem, please the customer, or a customer becomes a hater and bad publicity for the brand.
People, I'm really sorry for the never ending rant, will make a dedicated thread.

That is why I do not buy Micron SSDs. Not that you can anymore but I had that same issue, no one answers the phone, no one responds to your email and there is not enough contact info to talk to the right person.

Hi,

$0.70 difference between one with and without the wipes. And I do have a bottle of IPA that I use anyway.

One really needs a spare Yubikey.

Unfortunately they don't come in different colors, but they do have some real nice skins; however at $5 each with $4 shipping that is heavy given that I got the keys for $12 each, so I went with colored lanyards

I go so sick of finding my way around two-factor authentication without a cell phone that I took this route; no regrets.

Perhaps you were asking why a spare? so I don't get locked out if I lose/damage the primary key.

Nice! Picture look good?

Well it is good enough for 720p, for a cheap projector with no costly lamps to buy and almost 4 years lasting light source, if it is on 24/7 it is pretty good, even has bluetooth/wifi and casting to it.

Picked up some parts to revamp my #3 board - my hotswap experimentation board. Am very happy, I think Pearlios are the way to go now that I no longer am willing to spend an entire day doing switch work. They are the first linear that I have used that is truly ready to go out of the box - excellent smoothness with zero need for switch work. Gateron's new housings ensure almost no wobble so no more need for films, and the UHMWPE stem delivers exactly what is advertise with no need to lube by hand..

BSUN seems to make a more affordable alternative to Pearlios while being a very similar design with allegedly UHMWPE stems - might pick up some of those for my U80 once they are back in stock.

Case: same ol beloved 8 year old O-co FMJ
PCB: BIOI quad cut F60 (excellent hotswap that provides extensive layout choices)
Plate: same ol Noxary 5mm tray PC
Switches: stock Pearlios
Work: nothing except regular stab mods and Superlube
