Mind giving some feedback on the cooler after some days of putting it to work, I'm rather interested in this cooler compared to the Hyper 212 Evo.

 

Sure thing , I'll post some benchmarks.

I went to Ikea the Metro Centre in Gateshead today and picked up a new desk and some music guff. Took the image while building the desk. Just a cheapo one from Ikea.

I just got my Kingston Hyper X Predator SSD M.2

I'm so stoked about it [emoji38]

May I ask why our choose to go with that drive? Especially with the 850 Pro M.2 NVMe on the cusp of launching.

Because my motherboard only supports M.2 (2.0). and I have ordered it 2 weeks ago and it came in today.

bought a blackwing 602 which they claim is the best pencil in the world. The rubber is great but i have to say the writing experience is not quite as nice as my rotring 800. Due to the rotrings weight and the fact that im using 2B lead it takes pretty much no pressure on my part to get nice dark lines with the thing compared to the blackwing. I think if i was doing large amounts of writing it would be better just because it weights nothing but is still soft but for normal day to day use I think the Rotring tops it. Now i just need to try and find 4B 0.7mm lead.

You like softer lead? I prefer harder. He Hard is as soft as ill go. Preferably ill use 2H. You use 0.7mm too? Are you the type to like bold pens?

Also 4B is simple to get go over to JetPens. I recommend the Ain STEIN line.

Yeah, i like softer lead because it lets me make really dark solid lines without much pressure at all. If i want lighter lines ill just use less pressure. The longevity is not such a big deal for me. As far a pens are concerned i don't really use them because most of what i do is maths these days and being able to make edits is a must. I checked jet pens and i could not find 0.7mm 4B, the best there was was some 0.5mm 4B

0.7mm may be too wide for 4B as it would be brittle and break easily. That would be my guess. I know you can get 2B. What about 3B?
