I'm seriously considering picking up Arc but my HTPC doesn't have REBAR So I'd need to totally rebuild that thing to be worth it. Looks like a pretty decently put together card for the price though and their willingness to repair drivers is encouraging.

Haha Doesn't it sit completely under the cooler though? You would not ever see it after installing.

From my testing so far the drivers are just not there yet. A lot of games outright don’t work, a lot of games that do work just stutter too bad to be playable.

I would give it some time

well yeah....but I'D know it was there

Got a new heater

 

 

Tight AF fit. Had to bend the res bracket a bit to prevent strain on the 12p connector.

 

Usually not a fan of RGB rainbow puke.... rather set to a solid color, but it looks pretty good on this card. Runs waay cooler than the 3080 ti hybrid while consuming 100 more watts at stock. Was thinking of waterblocking it, but if it runs fine with air then I am content.

Hit the pop up today, got lttstore.com merch today, quality driver here, as someone who does own the Snap On one too and use daily in an auto shop, the LTT driver is there with quality. Highly impressed.

Bought a new set of PBT shine through keycaps for my K2, I moved the Miami shine through set to my Keycool 84 (Kailh Black). I dunno, I kind prefer a set of single colored keycaps on my keyboards, especially when the keyboard has RGB.

 

Also got an active laptop cooling stand, surprised it was made of some sort of metal alloy, I got this particular model because the fans aligns nicely with the air intake vents on bottom of my laptop. Temps did drop a little more after I started using this stand...oh yeah, these fans actually move more air than the slow as molasses single big fan on the CM laptop cooling pad I'd initially gotten. Besides, the stand can be folded up for easy storage and transportation, unlike the CM one.

GF bought us a new front door mat to replace the worn out "go away" mat.

DJI Avata combo, and a bunch of VHS-C tapes... the VHS cleaning cassette was apparently a gift cause it wasn't listed on the auction. Guess I have 2 now and bought one for nothing a few months ago

Got my hands on an Xbox One for just 50£, including kinect, controller and even the original hdmi cable. It's an early 500GB model from november of 2013, not long after it's launch. I ended up taking it apart and it was surprisingly clean and dust free inside for such an old console that's never been opened, although the thermal paste had turn to dust by now so I replaced it and now it runs much quieter, taking apart the console was oddly similar to taking apart the Xbox 360 slim, the clips, the xclamp, the front pannel connectors although some clips were a little more stubborn.

 

The controller was dirty and the d pad wasn't working properly so I ended up taking it apart and it's such a massive pain and so overly complicated when compared to the xbox 360 controller and much less repairable, vibration motors that used to be easily removable are now soldered in, and there are 2 separate boards because apparently 1 isn't enough. I spent more time taking the controller apart and putting it back together than I did the console. The d-pad buttons were fine but funnily enough the dpad plastic itself was worn down, I'll buy a new one and replace it at some point when I muster the courage to disassemble it again, until then I'll use another Xbox one controller I've been using with my pc. The controller is a nightmare from a repairability standpoint.

 

I also bought 2, relatively cheap games to play on the console.

Well welcome to the forum.  If Linus were selling it, you would have paid 2-3x as much.

 

And that keyboard would bother me, because I'd never be able to tell if I'd gotten it dirty.  At least...I'm gonna ASSUME that those are just special "marbelized" keys--and not filthy hands.

 

...Unless of course, that's just how the French like to roll.....dirty.

Oh the keyboard is not finished. the keycaps are a combination of 3 sets. While waiting for my GMK Botancal 2 set to come in.

 

And yes it is marbelized  

 

The marble set is Traitors Eternity.

The alphas are from Helical Hearth on etsy

And the random extra keys like fn etc are some generic pudding keycaps I had laying around.
