  1. Picked up a Rossi RS22 in bronze (to match my new UTAS) ($169) and a Gforce Arms P3 12ga in walnut furniture ($169) Ive been banking a bunch of guns these last few weeks, over the summer the shows slow down in my area and I will finally be able to get time to shoot them lol. Gun Show was in a resort at the Lake of the Ozarks in MO - so took the family with me and we stayed the weekend, just got back - had a blast.
  2. If you can cool it, push it - Id go to at least 1.39v myself
  3. Nice, storage is cheap these days. Makes ya wonder how their margins were about 1 year ago or more LOLOL
  4. Frequency of failure in my realm of experience is so bad that there is no way I consider it apart of the price. Id actually wonder how a poll would fair on this topic in terms of trusting a MIR.
  5. Maybe, I dont dig for deals just happen to see them and do it. I also have ZERO faith in MIR. They do not work, there is very little accountability and time is money - the time I have to spend to keep them accountable isnt worth the rebate. I mean, 20+ years of buying PC parts, my first 10 I tried rebates. They are just lies lol. I dont even attempt them anymore so I dont believe they are actually or should actually be included in any prices Example - I am so skeptical of MIR's because they just dont get honored - I spend like $1000 a month min on guns and ammo. Winchester recently had a huge MIR deal on ammo. Good .223 down to .37c a round AFTER MIR. Ha no Ill just pay more and still less than the original price prior to MIR.
  6. You just told me why I need to buy one, I just remembered I have a ton of data at home I need to xfer to my server in another city and I dont have a T1 at home lol. Dammit, ordered LOLOL.
  7. Ive had a loop running now for almost/around 5 years with only having to top off once in a while (HEAVY overclock 4.2ghz on R7 1700) Eventually I am going to take all the rads out and cut them up to prove there is zero issue (again, did this once on a 1 year old loop and now we have more data)
  8. Once I was trying to travel for work, had a knife in my jeans carpenter pants side pocket. Went through metal detector, body detector, wand and we just couldnt figure out what was causing the beep lol. They decided to just let me past and on my plane, about 3 minutes later while putting my shoes on I felt it in my pocket I was like WTF lol. I threw it away so not to have further issues. Dont know why just decided to share this story
  9. If I email my rep at Team Group in Taiwan and tell them what Im building and ask if they are interested in sponsoring the build with RAM and Storage. They say yes or no (have always said yes) and I advertise them during my Build Logs here at LTT and a couple other forums. I only mention it cause a few Mods here know this fact and I dont want to appear to be advertising for them as that is not ok here on these forums. I just stumbled on this crazy deal while perusing Newegg this morning.
  10. I honestly do not need any more m.2 storage atm. I am going to be pissed in about 2 months when I do need something and I didnt pick this up. CRAZY deal. I just gave away a 1tb 2.5" SSD to a neighbor (thats how much I dont need storage atm lol). Anyways, crazy deal. I do not know if I am supposed to state that I have a Team Group sponsorship but I do but this has NOTHING to do with that. I browse Newegg every day. Anyhow this is a SOLID every day driver 1tb for the average/above average user. Team Group MP33 M.2 2280 1TB PCIe 3.0 x4 Internal SSD - Newegg.com
  11. And I paid $270 out the door at the Gun Show (bnib) paid $150 out the door for the ammo to, good deals found today
  12. Gun show season here in MO picked up this Diamondback DB9 and 500 rounds of PMC bronze today
  13. Yes this is the exact reason I picked up this one
  14. Ive had a couple, but really gravitated away from them a few years ago (capacity and weight) - I do see them as old fuddy duddy guns LOL (still love em of course) - this one in particular I pulled the "trigger" on because its one of three brands that case harden the frame and slide creating a 1 of a kind finish on each gun - guy said he was able to get ahold of 6, let me pick from them and chose this one. Ill shoot it for my YT channel but it will become a safe queen after that
  15. Picked up this UTAS UT9M in bronze and a Charles Daly 1911 .45 with a 1 of a kind finish from factory
