I feel it's pretty accurate for a high-end AMD GPU.  Powerful, but power hungry as hell.  The i7 only makes up 88w of that.  

I assume you're right about the power consumption.  Similar to your Fury my 1080 ti likely isn't as power hungry but it's still the largest power using thing in my computer.

You know an American is overseas when we buy these.

Wish I could find the big ones, but no luck so far.

Hello all, I just now purchased some Meanwell Power Supply Units that are CC/CV to bulk charge my batteries at 16A, its fucking awesome because I not only now have 5 items, two pairs to get the voltage I require, but I also have a spare that I can split my battery to charge or just keep as a spare. Also I will only be pulling 12A from the wall outlet on both sets on one plug. So now instead of stealing $0.05 from whomever pays the electric bills, now I am stealing $0.10 from whomever is paying the electric bill.

Recently, I've been buying a number of 'ebooks' from the Playstore, but reading them on my Z5P and G6 proved to be quite a strain (yep, I ain't no spring chicken anymore) so I decided to get a phablet for my reading needs. Bought a cheap Lenovo Phab 2 (6.4" 720P IPS screen, 3GB RAM, Mediatek quad core, 32GB internal storage), ain't exactly fast, but does what I need it to do quite well.....using it for my books, watching 720P movies with MX Player Pro, and some Spotify.

 

Actually got it yesterday, been busy updating and installing my paid apps in it, took a while to configure it to my liking......

Everytime i see one of your new Cassette pickups i'm like "man, i need a tape deck". I got a new video/sound setup, any of these days i'll pull the trigger on a nice deck...

Well it still drove after being crashed this badly:

 

And I haven't had a single issue with it since I did basic repairs on it.

The chocolate is decent.  It is what inside what makes peeps back in the States go a bit nuts.  Plus, the fact it is illegal to bring these back to the States (Kinder eggs are banned).

I think the computer this motherboard came from used to sit next to a window , because the RAM slots and PCI slots are slightly yellowed, i could try to treat this with some hydrogen peroxide, but i don't mind it much, this is the motherboard that's going on the pfSense machine, so its going to stay closed most of the time. Maybe if i get a 3770k for cheap this will go into my main machine, because it works sooo well, no problems whatsoever! It even has some trick features, like dual bios.

And i think this came from one of the first batches of this model, some stickers around the board say that it was manufactured in 2011...
