  1. New model and it's still not officially available in Australia. I'd be interested if they offered a trade in program or parts for an upgrade.
  2. Saw this on the australia subreddit. What a freakin joke... I see the regular plan was raised by a couple of dollars too I believe
  3. Yep, the X1. Got it before it was discontinued.
  4. About 3hrs total at 0.18 layer height and normal speed. Definitely helps with sag. I didn't even realise it was that bad until I was mocking up the prototypes. Like easily over 5mm. Oh, didn't actually think about that but yeah the gpu shroud does have a decent gap around the heatsink. May look into that when I have the time. Thank you. I really like the chamfers. I was originally going to use rounded corners but then saw the GPU shroud had chamfered corners.
  5. Watched optimum tech's latest video a few days ago about 3d printed ducting for the GPU and CPU. I had this idea to do it a while ago but I guess I forgot about it. GPU has gotten quieter and is around 5-6c cooler now without changing any settings. I wonder if removing the GPU fans would make a difference? Don't think I'll try making one for the CPU as it's already sitting under 50c while gaming. Probably took me 3-4hrs to design and went through about 5 prototypes for each half.
  6. Can we get a video like Optimum Tech's latest upload about 3D printed cooling ducts? I'd like to see how performance is without fans on the heatsinks of the cpu and aftermarket gpu coolers. Video for reference
  7. The Wera was overall one of the worst performers. Would have thought it'd be in the top 5.
  8. I been listening to the wan show at work lately so I can catch up. Currently listening to April 7ths called "A monster lawsuit is coming for me". I've noticed the things Linus has said in this and the few wan shows before were kinda egotisitc. Looking forward to how this weeks one is going to go. Wonder what the energy is going to be like.
  9. I've been waiting on the slim edition of the backpack and now all this has come out and I started looking for alternatives and got a black ember shadow backpack instead. I had just received the screwdriver as well. Overpaid to support them and this shit happens.
  10. Goddam, I went to work not long after the "What do we do now" video released and come home to see this. Don't see a WAN show happening this week. Does that count as breaking the streak?
  11. ZERO chill from Steve. Yeah. that response from Linus was not good, at all. Imagine these 2 arguing on this week's WAN show. Linus should have let the CEO handle this as he is no longer the CEO and handled this as a personal attack.
  12. Dang, that GN video is hurting them bad. 20k/21k, like/dislike ratio. Never seen it that bad since I started watching in 2012. This needs to be addressed on the WAN show. I'm an LMG fan but Steve has very valid points.
  13. I used those 2 speed testers on my tablet via usb dock and it showed the same speeds. Got it sorted though. Ran a new cable from the router to pc and tablet to test, was getting 266mbps as expected of my plan (250mbps down, 25mbps up). Plugged the new cable to the switch and was getting around 266mbps again. Excellent. Put the old cable back to the switch to test and I was getting around 266mbps again. I have no idea what happened.
  14. I've just been checking speeds through steam downloads
  15. Yeah, I'm looking and only getting 12MBps at most
  16. Got fiber installed about a month ago and I'm getting mixed speeds from time to time. I've got Ubiquiti's Mesh point system and their US-8 switch which I'm pretty sure should be able to handle fiber speeds. Plugging straight into the router gets me mid-high 30MBps but through the switch I'm getting about 10-12MBps. I haven't touched any settings on the switch so I don't know what's up.
  17. Just go to the store page and leave a 1 star review and see if that gets a response. I too sent an email about the screwdriver, didn't get a response after nearly 2 weeks so left a 1 star review and got a response like 2 days after and got a refund. Their shipping company is awful.
  18. I don't own a steam deck, want one but am disappointed with the screen. I've heard the screen is fine for what it is but it's 2023. It should have a 1080p screen and it's a bonus to be OLED and maybe even have 120hz.
  19. Got a response right after leaving a 1 star review on the screwdriver page. I'll be taking a refund and probably reorder when things settle down.
  20. Dammit, I'm afraid it'll be the same for me. Hopefully I get a response from them. I literally ordered an item from aliexpress last monday and it arrived in australia TODAY
  21. I'm in the same boat as samxtham except wave 1. Gonna wait until late January, if nothing shows up then I'm opening a paypal case. Has Linus addressed this issue on the wan show lately? Or is he still just saying contact support? I contacted them on the 13th and no response.
  22. Was checking the tracking and now DHL says it doesn't exist anymore. WTF. I've contact support, let's see how bad this goes...
