Admiral Koba got a reaction from son_of_ottie in Jack Daniels build
Now, that's a very neat idea. Beautiful design with a balling machine to go with it. I'm interested to see how this project turns out.

If you haven't bought the machine yet (my assumption) - perhaps (as you've gone with a 144 Hz monitor) you might want to spend the extra $80 to go up to a GTX 1060 6GB rather than an extra stick of RAM (however some modern games do appreciate the extra RAM over the graphics horsepower)

Admiral Koba got a reaction from Sir Asvald in Is VPN really work?
Your connection doesn't change, you are just pushing all the data you would normally push direct through a tunnel towards another server. Your ISP will just see it as connecting to another device on the internet.

It's not the same. Powerline adapters uses your house's electrical wiring. If your house is old then the electrical wiring can have an affect on the powerline. Pricing won't matter. Any device you get will yield the same results.

According to the manufacturer of your gateway - to port forward those are the steps you need to follow. Putting in your exact IP may not work correctly.

Admiral Koba got a reaction from YellowJersey in Need a router recomendation
I'd probably reccomend the Asus RT-AC68U - it's at the higher end of your budget but has a decent range from what I've heard and supports AiMesh (seen here) so could allow you to extend further down the line with more APs. It's fairly decent in NewEgg right now.
That being said, a Netgear Nighthawk AC1900/AC2300 also fits within your budget and is a solid choice too. Good luck in your search.

Admiral Koba got a reaction from Not Eligible For Stars in Patchbox
The cables are flat, flat patch cables aren't the rarest thing in the world. They seem just like standard STP (shielded twisted pair) cables to me. (most CAT6 is 32 AWG however - so wire is a little thicker)

Admiral Koba got a reaction from Not Eligible For Stars in Recognize this rack enclosure/shelf/drawer?
It's not a blanking plate, it's a shelf. Look under it on the first image to give you a better view at it.
https://www.reichelt.com/gb/en/19-rack-housing-2-u-sin-2-he-sw-p247241.html?ARTICLE=247241&&r=1 - is very similar if you're interested.
Likely to not have come with the rack.

Admiral Koba reacted to KuJoe in Patchbox
For the cost of one of those boxes I could get a few spools of CAT6 cable, hundreds of RJ45 connectors, new crimpers, AND hire somebody off Craigslist to do the work for a bunch of cabinets while still having money left over for a bunch of shiny new UniFi APs for all the wireless I won't need.

Admiral Koba reacted to Fasauceome in Using an APU with dedicated graphics card
The APU is fine, you can just opt out of using the integrated graphics by putting your video cable into the graphics card (which you would do anyway)

Admiral Koba got a reaction from sazrocks in HAMACHI?
You don't need it. It's safe (made by LogMeIn - makers of LastPass etc.) but there are more elegant ways of doing it - nice way to play if you don't want to port forward however.

Admiral Koba got a reaction from nox_ in New Mechanical Keyboard
Free shipping in the contiguous US & Canada. OP asked for price in $ so assumption is that they're in North America. You raise a valid point however.

G.Skill RIPJAWS KM570 have RGB MX Blues on Amazon for ~$100. The keyboard has media keys and has the G.Skill Driver System for customization through software.
