No problem I would have been happy to help if I could have. I do not have any 555 any how (do have some RY4, but is VG/PG: 30/70) I've been really impressed with how well they mixed their flavors. I have tried a bunch and liked all but 3.

They do sell 555 now but it is either VG/PG: 30/70 or VG/PG: 60/40. I am also going to guess that the 30ml size won't be to your liking. The 15ml is nice to test if you like a flavor, but if you do 30ml is not big enough. I've heard rumor though that they are going to carry a bigger size!

From their website "we plan to spend the next month focussing on and hope to release as many as 2 new tobacco flavors per week so check back!"

I'm really not that kind, but Wharf has me feeling generious today!

mod I didn't "like" your post cuz I don't like that your MB crapped the bed. Been there :(

Dang 5C, I'm sorry about your mail doofus! I hope you can hang on until your 90ml gets there...if they don't lose that too!
Yea, It's not the first time for me either. My last PC got fried in lightning storm. lol I have another mobo on the way but I may just say 'screw it' and build a whole new PC. It will put my dreams of a Buzz on hold (again) though.

They make computers so they only last until the upgraded version is out! And seeing as about 15 minutes after you buy a computer, there is already a better one out there they are not made to last very long. But my husband fixes computers for a living so it keeps him busy! Seriously though it will be hard to choose between a custom built one ( we have a few of those in house) or a buzz pro!

I built 2 of mine and my sons. It's something you have to stay involved with though because they change so fast. I was going to build one of those large water cooled processor kind but realized for what I use them for that was just overkill.
Ya I don't understand why a lot of the vendors only sell PG/VG mix without an option for 100% pg or VG for that matter. I like the taste of the crossfire trail but it's got VG in it. I buy my juice in 30ml. bottles moorea. Sometimes I buy larger bottles but 30 ML. is a nice size to work with.
I've been looking at the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 GPU .

I prefer my juice with all PG, that is why when I order from KBV I order the 30/70 mix to get as much PG as possible. I overlook the VG in the KBV juices because they really are masters of the flavoring. I tend to like their WTF or OMG (I do not do fruity flavors) but I have tried several others, and even the ones I didn't like vaping were spot on for the flavor! I even tried the rice pudding and it taste like rice pudding... I don't know yet if rice pudding is something that should be vaped though. It kind of reminded of something my mother packed with a school lunch decades ago!

I can't say much about the NVIDA my husband builds the computers and keeps them netwroked and running and I use them! I never look at what is inside. Considering how much his student loans cost, I just assume he knows what he is doing and he hasn't let me down yet. The unfortunate part is, his responsibilities in our partnership (and I am referring to our busniess not our marriage) is not nearly as time consuming as mine. So while I am designing the websites, programming the database and e-commerce sites and designing the print ads he is out hunting or targeting shooting!

We custom build ours too but we are a few of years out of date now. Mine is fine for what I do now, but if I were still gaming I'm need to upgrade my vid card and processor for sure. I'm still hanging in there with an Nvidia Gforce 285 vid card and a quad core Intel Extreme Q6800
That's better than my set up (and still pretty good). lol My PC is about 3 or 4 years old. I'm running an AMD Athlon x2 6000+ (3ghz) dual core and I'm still using Nvidia 8800GT cards. lol Despite being grossly outdated, I've never had a problem running most games on high settings.

The 560 GPU's look pretty good and are priced reasonably. I'm going to be upgrading to a 460 GTX eventually since they're down under $150 these days (I was going to buy one next month until my mobo died, grr). It's still one of the best performing cards out there for the price.

They are good at it for sure and I wish I could overlook the VG they use but my body won't let me. I get terrible headaches for vaping VG so it really is a no brainer or might be if I continue to vape it.

I wonder if they would do custom mixes with 100% PG. But would that change the great job they do with the flavor? I swear they must have a mad scientist hiding in the corner... Who would of ever thought of rice pudding liquid and then get it right. They have good customer service, so I might ask about the 100% PG they next time I am chatting with them. I don't get a headache from the VG, but I wouldn't mind 100% PG myself.

I've been looking at the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 GPU .

It seems like there were few options for people who wanted more VG, but it seems as though things have changed. I see less and less 100% PG and more VG. I can tolerate some VG, but I seem to like it closer to 90-10 or 80-20 PG-VG, but that is why I like to mix most of my own liquids. I did really like IKV's RY4 PG mix, I can vape it but there was something in it that disagreed with me a bit (or I might just have a cold, lol) I am working on my own RY4ish liquid, I am part way there I had to order a couple more flavorings, we'll see.

The GTX 560 looks like a good GPU - I like nVidia. I am a big fan of mini-ITX solutions though. My main PC is in a very small ITX case, I am running a slightly OC'ed core2Duo, a laptop hard drive for the OS. I only had room for a half-height single slot GPU, so I went with an HD 5570 (I added a dGPU just to do a little light gaming and it helps a bit with the dual monitor setup). But my system is tiny, virtually silent and only uses 45 Watts at idle, 60 Watts with moderate use and maxes out around 100 Watts(pushing the CPU and GPU to the limit with Burn Test)

The only thing it would do maybe is put out less vapor. That's why the mixer guys put vg in the mix because it puts out more vapor. I was going to use all vg when I started vaping because it's also sounded healthier but the headaches stopped me. I had a qt. bottle of it I gave away along time ago.

I was going to over clock mine to but like I said for what I do on a pc I don't need too. I have one pc for internet surfing and coming on here plus I watch movies on it. The other one is for video stuff. Photo shop. doing downloads etc. and a really tiny one that has xp on it and 98 on it for old stuff thats supposed to work on 7 ultimate in compatability mode but don't. I don't do much gaming. Well on PCs anyway. LOL, :):):)

Windows compatibility is such utter crap. They may as well have never bothered.

My sister used to have mini PC, but being a gamer it was never enough. She bought it for the price but mini gpu's were hard to find then. I ended up buying her a new PC for xmas a couple years ago. I gave her my old 8600GT card, bought her a new power supply and installed it all for her. She was very happy after that.

Ya I just use it for old stuff and your right about Windows Compatibility it just takes up space because it certainly has no other function I've found.

THE MAILMAN STORY CONTINUED.
I went to his boss today and he is now investigating it.
Here's the cool part and I'm just amazed is the only word for it. MY Vapor Store is the vendor I ordered this bottle of juice from. One of the only ones I could find with 30ML. bottles of 100% PG anyway I have kept them informed as to what's going on thinking maybe they could put some pressure on the delivery. This morning I got a confirmation notice for a replacement bottle of juice. That is pretty cool beings it wasn't thier fault I didn't get it.

5C thats one of the things I LOVE about vaping. Most of the vendors go above what is expected for their customers.

One of the main reasons I will support notcigs as long as im vaping. Mikes service is amazing and his commitment to his customers is above almost any company I have seen. He puts up with alot from all of us and gets the Ruppy gold star service award for it :)

I couldn't agree more but from reading posts in some of the forums I see they're not all that accommodating. I wasn't expecting them to do that. It just amazed me. You are right about Mike with notcig though. I've not seen any vendor go through what he does. I've also not seen vendors customer support go as far as Mike either but that's one of the reasons I keep hold of his coat tails. I grabbed a hold the day he started at ECF and haven't let go since.
Him and his company are at the top spot in my list of favorite vendors.
I just thought that was pretty cool what they did and needed a mention.

Glad you did. Might throw them some business just because :) The wife likes the all PG too :) I did finally manage to get her some V4L Kamel though :) Happy wife is a Happy Ruppy!
