@Necrospecter maybe check out the zathog rda. It's got a 30mm postless drop in deck. I looked around a bit but didnt see much but clamp style in that size
Those coils looks sick! I may have to pick some up myself. I'm still rockin the mohawks in the DR. I like putting crazy coils in it. The glass cap really shows them off.

:LOL, I always LOVED my kid to death, but he sure was a pain at times.

Like a fine wine though, now that he's all independent and living in another state and self-sufficient, I sure do APPRECIATE him.

The number one best gift your kid can give you is to leave home and not return on any kind of a semi-permanent basis. That, and not making you a grandparent at (their) sweet 16.

Good luck with the rest of your day.

Not a bad start however ram is low way low in fact I wouldn't start anything under 16gb and think about upgrading that power supply I would also reconsider running only SSD I hate them personally yes their speed is nice however their lifespan is crap.

Yeah, another 8gb stick of ram is on the list, also another hard drive, probably not an SSD, their prices are nuts.

Morning everyone. We have been battling snow, and below zero wind chills. Tonights wind chill is supposed to get down to -20F, with an actual temp of -1F.

They say freezing to death is just like going to sleep. I started having trouble sleeping when I moved to a cold part of the country.

50F in the desert tonight, so far I'm not in danger of freezing to death or sleeping.

The prices are really bad for what you get in my opinion I mean really an SSD is a glorified VHS tape the more read/write the drive does the faster it will fill and fail while there speed is amazing again to me it is not worth it I knew someone who has had to replace theirs every 6 months. I am guessing that you got it to be a gamer rig so you are going to be doing a lot of reading and writing even more so if you play Alpha games like I do (well at least Alphas that have a good dev team)

Here is a good tool for you to bookmark Power Supply Calculator - PSU Calculator | OuterVision also check Newegg.com they will be having a lot of great sales coming up some have even started.

I really wish someone would put out a mod that runs on dual 2X700.

I sincerely doubt freezing to death is just like falling asleep, except for the weird end part where you are hallucinating and sometimes you feel hot, and tear off your clothes, etc. And I mean it's similar only in the removal of clothes.

I have been cold, very cold, extraordinarily cold, nearing frostbite etc., and I am HERE to REPORT that it ALL SUCKED.

Saying freezing to death is like sleeping is similar to saying a good old fashioned drowning is similar to your warm nightly bath.

They both involve water, but that's about it.

There are quite a few out there. Sigelei has one for about $40. It's 257W. Boxer even has a triple 2×700! It ain't cheap though.

Hope everyone made it thru the storm intact. Fortunately not too much snow about 3-4 inches before turning to freezing rain. However it’s heavier than cement to try and shovel. I did a small area on the deck for the pups before the big freeze tonight.

I feel bad for all those that lost their electricity.

I’ve been using 3 Kennedy clones since I started building. I think the perception of bottom air flow RBAs leaking is overhyped. I’ve NEVER had any bottom air flow leak except the Steam Crave Supreme V2. It was one of my 1st RTAs and 1st with a juice control ring. Of course I put it together incorrectly. Somehow I’m always seating the deck incorrectly which leaves a space.

But honestly the flavor from the Kennedy is incredible to me. Maybe buy a clone if you’re not opposed to clones and check it out.

I always have a Kennedy in my daily rotation it’s that good and the vape is so dense too.

Just my :2c:

The key to this is to have the tails of the wick really long and stuff them under the coils. Stuff long wads of the tail tightly under there and you will know if you left them long enough when you have stuffed it tight and no more would have fit.

Thanks for the link. I was looking on newegg and saw a 4tb seagate hard drive for I think $93. Seems like an awesome deal, it was SATA 3 as well.
