  1. For a tiny bit more money you can get https://www.pccasegear.com/products/38132/cougar-panzer-dual-tempered-glass-mid-tower-case or https://www.pccasegear.com/products/40782/silverstone-redline-rl06-gp-tempered-glass-case-white-black
  2. Most acrylic windows have some janky mounting system with bent tabs in holes.You'll end up having to break the tabs or the window getting it out.Then replacing it is another nightmare its self.Its acrylic you learn to live with scratches and dust sticking to it.Or upgrade to a case with tempered glass if you want a window.
  3. Its acrylic no matter what you do it will always scratch easy.
  4. The core x5 has it on the side but its up high on the side.
  5. Really any big name coolant not 3d effects like vue or ufo will work prefect for you.
  6. The pumps on aios are touchy and can die with in months.
  7. Make sure its a job you want that your changing to,Reason i say this in the future if you keep changing jobs that won't look good on a resume.If i see a resume and they worked 2 months this job 4 months this job and maybe 6 months another job that screams they won't work somewhere long pass over them.when you go on the job interviews try to dress like the workers do there,And be early if your late your already screwed.And like said let them know i have a job you will put in a 2 week notice and your first day at work can be and say the date.This will look better on you for the next job,If i interviewed someone that had a job and told me they can start anytime ill pull the ill call you on them.Reason being if you will quit on them with out a notice you'll do it to me.

    Mattress

    What i do is go to a store and lay on all of them,And lay on them how you sleep,So if you sleep on your side or back lay like that get a feel for it.Price sucks but paying more is damn worth it you'll sleep better and have less back or other things sore on you.I use the same rule on work shoes also price means nothing if im happy wearing them i'll keep buying that brand i like.
  9. I'm 35 have had a few jobs over the years,Honestly what i have seen all jobs suck somewhere somehow.A lot of it can come down to the boss to have,A nice boss that won't screw you over is good to have but rare anymore.A lot of bosses now are more worried about pinching that penny working you like a dog to get a bigger bonus check for themselfs.
  10. I would run 2 360 rads and that case needs the modded top and front to get enough airflow for 2 rads in it.You can buy the panels done from https://modmymods.com/custom-services/phanteks-case-mods.html
  11. Mounting error or the pump was acting up or had a small clog you might have knocked loose.
  12. Look at this way people have been water cooling pcs since the 90s,Some tried the whole lets dunk a pc in a fish tank full of mineral oil to cool it fad but that wore out fast.For pc liquid cooling water and the coolants we have now are the best option for cooling vs price.Using anything else will cost a lot more and you'd have to fully make your own loop pretty much.
  13. I just see it leaking or shorting out the cpu that way.
  14. Rigs of rods you could go off road and had mods for a lot of cars.Screamer 4x4 or full drive 2 uaz 4x4 ?
  15. A 1080 ti can run 4k at mid to low settings and still see 60fps.If you want either 1080s look in to a 1440p monitor with 144hz or higher if you want first person shooter games.Like said 1070 ti is 1080 speed and cheaper once the video card prices come back down.Once you cross over to pc gaming you'll never own another console.Like said with the right gpu and monitor the graphics will look amazingly better.The game options are nice and you can play some xbox games on windows now.
  16. Like said it comes down to which games you want to play if they use more cpu or more gpu.It can even come down to amd vs intel and nvidia vs amd gpus.Some games like one more over the other.Give up a list of games you want to play or own and we can help you better answer your question.
  17. If they have a dynamic ip resetting the modem gives them a new ip,A static ip would take a call to their isp to get a new ip.Or use a vpn is another option.Like you said nothing is 100% ban anymore theres ways around anything.
  18. Pretty much since their has been online gaming people have found a way to cheat.Yeah most games have ways to catch the cheaters but it takes a while.Best thing you do is sit back and laugh they paid money to buy the cheats for a online game lol.
  19. I use to be in a gaming clan for years,We only let in players that played by our rules.And honestly i had the most fun playing with those guys then i did on any game or even match i have played.We played as squads like the game needed and no one got butt hurt over losing we mostly laughed at funny things we did.Or cut up and joked with each other.I'm 35 and i won't play any console games online unless i mute chat anymore.These younger players whine too much over the smallest things i have seen.
  20. I have been into building pcs since the 90s and i fully hate acrylic,I had cases with acrylic windows a few times.You can scratch it with a finger nail or using the wrong cloth to wipe it off.And acrylic is a dust magnet.The case i have now has no windows because of that,But my next one will have tempered glass.I can deal with wearing gloves or a quick glass cleaning for finger prints.Scratches and dust drive me nuts lol.
  21. Yeah if you want to water cool that you got two options.Full custom loop or its own aio and a 2nd one for your cpu.
  22. Aluminum is the only water cooling metal you don't want to mix.Copper/brass,nickel and stainless all play together fine.
