  1. Just saw a LTT video about a pc shutting down. The first few mins are Linus, the rest is all Anthony. I did not know about event viewer in windows. Maybe take a look? Best of luck
  2. A shame that you do not have a spare PSU and send this to Gamers Nexus for testing.
  3. Gamers nexus relevant but about the CPU starts at approx 13:00 GN has a riew, but I found the one by Jarrod's tech 1st. If you can afford it, get the Alder.
  4. I always to think of the Gamers Nexus AIO video re orientation. I think it is why my build will have Noctua fans. You can always tell if the fan isn't spinning. I hope that you can solve this. Best of luck.
  5. Yes, I have a low end system and everything on low. 11 fps, but, it is good to try.
  6. I just watched a A-4 vs F-14 vid on YT and I thought a few times "oh if he had just a bit engine" So I ask if there will ever be a Top Gun version with the more powerful engine? I'd like to again thank everyone involved with this mod. I really enjoy it. Thanks!
  7. Good point. I'm not saying its ideal, but, if $$$$ is an issue, it might work. Another with smaller vices. https://www.reddit.com/r/EliteDangerous/comments/benywo/built_some_hotas_mounts_and_you_can_too/ I do not think that I would want to use these forever, but until I could get the $ for a monstertech or virpil, it might just do.
  8. Sorry if already posted. https://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/forums/topic/158016-easy-sturdy-desktop-joystick-holder/ There are also quick release(A button) versions of these vices, but, I've read that sometimes the buttons release on their own? So research before trusting your HOTAS to a quick release version. https://www.amazon.ca/Delta-20-622-4-Inch-Quick-Release-Drill/dp/B00004Y9F3 One thing I always did when clamping onto wood was to use some sacrificial thin pieces of wood on either jaw to protect the desk surface. Edit my second link was to a plastic clamp. Not sure that would hold up?
  9. I had a dual boot Ubuntu/Windows system. Once I learned about the software libraries, I pretty much I had everything I needed. I deleted ubuntu due to space reasons mainly. I did not like what it did to the boot loader. That was my fault though. https://askubuntu.com/questions/1240994/how-to-restore-windows-boot-loader-after-removing-ubuntu Main issue for ubuntu/linux is drivers imho. But, I think in time that there will be much better support.
  10. Saw this and thought that it may help. 3d print Thopter https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5125725/files This one looks pretty spiffy https://www.cgtrader.com/3d-print-models/miniatures/sci-fi/dune-ornithopter
  11. Not trying to muddy the waters, but would Dview or DXtweak help? https://derekspearedesigns.com/technical-guide.html
  12. Saw these and thought that it may work for someone. There are plenty of other styles as well. https://www.amazon.ca/Everlasting-Comfort-Orthopedic-Sciatica-Tailbone/dp/B01EBDV9BU/ref=bmx_dp_kgexgzqn_1/134-9559785-5451040?pd_rd_w=DH1zy&pf_rd_p=aa5a6837-dc2f-41da-8ea4-563c5d415b8d&pf_rd_r=ZT2264GRDRZJJXD6M8V4&pd_rd_r=5e7fc2ea-ef53-441d-b7b9-2f1d1717e354&pd_rd_wg=LREdf&pd_rd_i=B01EBDV9BU&psc=1 1) You might have to flip it so that bulge isnt in behind. 2) Not sure that the gap in the middle is large enough for full range of motion of the stick?
  13. Agree 100% with MOW above. Unless you have no choice and must have a portable, a desktop will have more performance. Yes, it is a bad time hardware wise, especially GPU, but, a desktop might give you a GPU upgrade path. Hardware unboxed analysis 3070 vs 3070
  14. Band-Maid Dont go by the outfits. This is good ROCK Dice Onset Freedom Domination
  15. This may or may not help. Lins tech tip forum PSU Tier list. https://linustechtips.com/topic/1116640-psu-tier-list/ Good luck. Edit: here is someone getting a 3080TI. Same question. https://linustechtips.com/topic/1386617-what-psu-do-you-recommend-also-i-do-not-quite-understand-the-tier-list/ EDIT EDIT- A further surch in the psu forum for 3080 cards. Plenty to read. https://linustechtips.com/search/?q=3080&quick=1&type=forums_topic&nodes=21
  16. I have kits, just unable to build at the moment. So I look at the new releases. New kits on the way: 2 new 1/48 SR-71 kits. One from Revell, the other from Hypersonic/Gaspatch. Reprint of Caracal decals also coming up. I think the Revel kit is out in December. Pre-order is about $120 usd. Build http://hyperscale.com/2021/galleries/sr71arevell48dw_1.htm The other SR-71 by Hypersonic/Gaspatch is what I will save up for. Looks like they have been working on it for a few years. Last post I saw said that they were still committed to it. Hypersonic has a webpage and you can see the quality of his work. Doesn't look like you can put the engines into the Revel kit?

  17. GN report Power 243 watts. skip to 24:13 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fhI9tLOg-6I Temperature 102 C OC. 93 Regular. https://www.techpowerup.com/review/intel-core-i9-12900k-alder-lake-12th-gen/21.html Since I am waiting for reasonable GPU prices to return(HA!) I will see what more testing shows and what AMD has up it's sleeve
  18. Just wanted to say Thanks! to you and the folks at VSN. I really like booting along in the CF-104.
  19. Hello, I've read about the various fixes and extensions, but may have an idea. I've looked online re pics and videos and can not see how the shaft is joined to the gimbal. Does anyone know? Or have a picture that they can share? Thanks
  20. Just found this as a possible reference Cockpit/Ornithopter design. https://assets-prd.ignimgs.com/2021/10/28/ornithopter-cockpit-1635422491206.jpg https://www.ign.com/articles/dune-how-denis-villeneuve-designed-the-ornithopters I am already seeing 3d print crysknives on thingiverse/yegi. How long before there is a Thopter there? Ever reference helps right? Best of luck to everyone on this project.
  21. I will try that. I thought that I had created the correct folder name, but obviously not. Thanks!
  22. I always like finding imaginative takes on things.

I am sorry.
  23. This reminded me of a thread I stumbled across many years ago. I like what if aircraft. They are fun. Get the imagination going. Anyhow, here is a JSDF A-10 Dragon. What say you skinners? http://www.arcforums.com/forums/air/index.php?/topic/130242-what-if-schemes/&do=findComment&comment=2176300 You could replace the figure on the tail with a Dragon or a Samurai etc.
