i finally got enough of my Tesla, right now in wait for parts for another big repair round on my 2021 march Model 3 LR, so called my company car contact, and he said he would offer me an exchange.. i´m just a bit insecure on what too buy, because it is a company car it has to be electric, all others are simply to expensive.. and with Danish taxation rules, it becomes complex, because plug-in are higher taxed and ICE cars are 150% taxated, whereas pure electrical are without tax.

 

so my list is

 

Polestar 2 LR Dual motor (with everything just not the performance pack) - Smaller cargo area, less range.

Kia EV6 GT-Line AWD LR

Hyundai Ionic 5 AWD LR

Q4 50 E-tron (Or Skoda enyaq)

C300E Estate - it has the 25KWh battery and the 2xx hp engine. so a plugin

Ford Mustang LR

Xc40 P8 but it might have too little range

 

Wanted a V60 Recharge, but with my inscription pack, it just reached a cost, that i am not willing to pay, it is the same "price" as the Electrics, but the compensation is just giant.

 

I´ve removed the Mustang, really do not like the car, not because of the brand, but it just feels firm.

 

I´m leaning towards the Kia / Hyundai, especially the Ionic 5, just a bit afraid that the power is a bit to low on that car, i am happy with the output of the tesla, and there is a LONG waiting time for it, and my temporary car, will be a E300 i will borrow, so if i have that for too long, i´m sure i will fall in love.

 

I have our second car, the Polo GTI from 2019 with the manual 6 speed, so i have a "bit" of fun in "wifecar". even though it is only 200Bhp.

I’m a level 4 high voltage technician, and work for a company which attends people at the side of the road. 
 

I’ve driven most of these in my working life. 
 

get the polestar. I actually loved the polestar. It’s Volvo enough that it’s trustworthy, enough of a competitor that it isn’t dwarfed by the model 3 hype, and one flippin’ handsome looking car 

I actually nearly ordered one through a company car scheme but it was too expensive for my blood lol

I do recommend you get more ram though.

Yeah eventually. It’s a start though lol 

any love for a really obscure japanese 7 seat luxobarge?

Hi all! 

I joined this forum long ago - recenlty upgraded my PC, to a ryzen! 

my fiancee bought me a motherboard and waterblock for christmas and my birthday respectively so i put it all together the other day

specs:

Ryzen 3800x (was super cheap brand new open box at like £200)

16gb vengeance ram with the fake dimms as well

Strix b550f 

EVGA 850w 

Razer PC-011 

corsair xc5 block

corsair fittings

EK distro

alphacool black tubing

my trusty old GTX970 Windyboi (youll notice i populated the GPU ports on the distro with a bit of tubing till i can get a used 2080/2070 and waterblock)

on my desk is a G19 (about 15 years old) 

and some razer stuff - yeah i know razers 'uncool' or whatever but im pretty happy with it and the colours match - i do want a new keyboard though as its driving me nuts with it being the only thing out of place. 

(sorry about the mess, i gave my fiancee my old parts for her PC and then ive got an x58 system sitting doing nothing now lol)

im going to get some black fans and ive ordered an ASUS RBG hub so i can connect the block and the distro - but thats coming from china so it gets here when it gets here 

i hope you like

Finally completed my wheels with some center caps, painted them my color. Turned out nice. Just need some fog lights, I need to paint my spare door and window tint... 

Pics of the whole car!

pick up a used X5650 and overclock instead. an RX 480/580 is a good option if you're fine with buying it used.

you should probably be looking at the xeons instead of the I7s and the 1050TI isnt really a good deal new a used 570 or 580 is a much better deal.

 

there are quite a few X58 enthusiasts on the forum as i recall, its a cool platform that still performs well today

Thanks dudes, will look into that! 

New to forum! 

Focus ST owner, used to have a 2019 Mercedes e class cabriolet as well 

Make sure to get a closed deck processor 

(lol Subaru joke) 

Hi all! New member, thought I’d start a build log of my current PC and keep it running for future upgrades 

current specs are:

i7 920 C0 (yeh the crap one) 

GA-X58 UD3R rev2.0 

6gb Super Talent RAM

GTX460 1gb graphics card 

there’s an SSD but not with the OS on

Corsair cx650 PSU

corsair case 

custom liquid cooling setup 

my plans for this are actually to stay with 1366 as money is a factor and push what I have to it’s absolute limit before I really need to splash out for something more serious. 

Ive been looking at i7 975 processors  and maybe a gtx1050ti? 

Ive been out of the loop for so long I don’t even know what’s current. 

Thanks all! 

Hi all! 

New member here from from the UK! 

Ive recently got back into gaming again after watching the vidyas

on youtube! 

Ive still got my trusty old i7 920 C0 (lol) and it’s still a good PC... to me at least! 

Im planning on upgrades soon as I get £1000 of amazon vouchers from the manufacturer I work on behalf of (vehicle tech) in December. 

Does anyone one still use 1366? 

Thanks again! I’ll be sure to do a build log of my old clunker
