Thank you, I'm very pleased with it. It's a huge upgrade from my old case that was an old case from a Pre-Built I bought a few years ago. The airflow was terrible as it had a closed front panel. My cpu is running 7-8°c lower at idle. I have the front-side 3 and bottom 3 intake and rear one and one on top for exhaust. Not quite filling all 10 fan spaces but nearly 😄
Edit - Finally brought back upstairs. She's heavy...

Building PCs can be a rabbit hole, and since I have some parts left over from an upgrade and a spare case, I just needed these to complete another one.

I used some similar contraptions for years when i used to climb regularly and i'd say they certainly do help with grip strength. I found it helped more when i'd not been bouldering (the type of climbing i ended up doing most) for a few weeks. But like any kind of muscle training, it takes regular effort to see any real improvement. There's no quick fix.
Depends what you want from it though too. In the end i found regular climbing, using the exact sets of muscles over and over again, worked better than just trying to train those muscle through different exercises which may not target the exact ones in the same way. I suppose its a form of calisthenics.

Our country's understanding of money is very different. If I tell you, you will cry. If I had to give an example. Imagine your 1 month salary is $30000 or $40000.
House price: $3,000,000
A normal car: $1,000,000
PS5: $30000
And this is the dough machine I just bought, $4500.
I paid $15,000 for a Thrustmaster t128 steering wheel.

I understand what you're trying to say but it isn't entirely representative. Start with a more realistic monthly salary for westerners.
Say £1800... that's 6% of £30000
6% of 3,000,000 is £180,000 That's a rather normal price for a house in Britain (Sadly)
6% of 1,000,000 is £60,000 While expensive, That is an acceptable price for a car.
I understand that exchange rates and maybe the inflation in your country may make things more expensive but from your numbers at least, It doesn't seem that different.

Thanks a lot👍🙏
I only did like 2 livery’s in GT Sport, I’m too lazy for this normally but doing this one motivated me, it wasn’t easy and I actually got to the maximum of 300 layers at the end, but it was fun too.
Thanks for showing me your appreciation👌👌, sadly there’s less than I thought who know about Dilla in GT it seems, that bummed a bit after all the hours I have put in as nobody used it😅
Man that signed magazine is so cool, I remember seeing it on the stonesthrow website when they were promoting Jaylib, I was so flashed at that time as I just discovered Dilla trough this project, was a big Madlib fan already, it was a incredible time!
Did you see them live then?
And we’re did you get that Donuts banner?
That Donut Shop Serato record im very jealous of, that Safety Dance Beat bangs!!
And the Suit for Ma Dukes EP I have too, great record, grabbed the LP last year for a budget price in my local record shop finally, really cool with cool features, can absolutely recommend it👍
And here’s some more from my Dilla collection because I can’t stop😅

very dope! Yes I went to the Jaylib show in LA that's were I met Dilla and Madlib. I got the banner and shirt custom made.
I was also a huge Madlib guy, I live in San Jose and when Peanut Butter Wolf signed lootpack and did a tour they did a show in SJ and like 10 people showed up.
Funny thing is I've ran into Madlib a bunch over the decades ...at record shops...buying tons of records, the dude is really about that crate digging life.
I also went to that Suite for MaDukes Event in LA. craziest part was I sat pretty close to Flying Lotus and chilled with him and his friends during the intermission. Almost everyone who was a known beat maker in LA was at that show

wow this is just, that's so awesome, I always dreamed of this back then, being able to see all these incredible musicians and living in that culture, everything revolved around Stones Throw and this whole LA Beat Scene for me back then but im from Germany and there wasn't much oppurtinities to see them. My local record dealer organized some concerts but I always missed them or they got cancelled (like one with MF Doom and Wildchild I already got tickets for), and Madlib is seen very rarely over here unfortunately:/.
I haven't digged that much into Dilla when he was still alive, so I wasn't that much in the know about his condition and that his concerts could've been his last ones, but a friend of mine went to one of his last live shows in December 2005 at Düsseldorf, it was just incredible how he still rocked even sitting in that chair and to see all these people coming there showing their love for him he said, especially the guy who came there with the "J Dilla Changed My Life"-Shirt (funnily we into him all the time later on parties in our hometown, he was DJing a lot in our area we discovered then).
But im happy I at least been able to see FlyLo in Cologne once, and it was one of the best shows I've ever been to in my life, he had 3 other guys who did live visuals to his music and FlyLo stood between those two screens and in some moments looked like a other worldly being in combination with those visuals, just crazy!
But that's nothing against you having chilled with him
, I imagine he's a very chilled dude. One of my favorite musicians ever and one the most talented ones of our lifetime in my opinion, got almost all his records, and very curious for his upcoming sci-fi next year.Yeah heard about that crazy amount of records of Madlib, I think I read in some interview that owns (or owned as its some years ago) about 40,000 records, that's actual tons of vinyl, just crazy..
But funny, I had the same thing happening to me with a hip hop artist from Germany, I ran into him several times, even in totally different cities far from where we were from he suddenly stood there on the other side of a record crate I was digging in at the moment

Yeah I take full advantage of being in California...I met almost everyone of my favorite musician and DJ. Now that Im a lot older and the scene has changed I reflect on how lucky I was to be around that...still am.wow this is just, that's so awesome, I always dreamed of this back then, being able to see all these incredible musicians and living in that culture, everything revolved around Stones Throw and this whole LA Beat Scene for me back then but im from Germany and there wasn't much oppurtinities to see them.

Flylo is a funny dude, I met him a lot too post Dilla passing...he's always down to talk video games too, I havent seen him in a looong time, last when I chilled with him he was go on and on about Devil may cry. Also was probably one of the few that was super into anime like myself. .
I had to stop myself early on from buying that many records...its not fun when you have to move a ton of vinyl, I developed a method and it still sucks. I heard if you put them into storage they will likely get some kind of mold damage or eaten by mice/rats, was told a huge amount of Peanut Butter Wolfs collection got lost to mold when he put his records in storage. Actually heard that Madlib has a pretty nice house with multiple rooms dedicated to all his records.
That Dilla changed my life shirt also made huge waves out here ...Don't know why I never bought one
Did you see that recent documentry on Hulu about Dilla? I cried like a baby at the end it was soo beautiful

Potential Trump tariffs... new addiction to computer technology, living alone with no other responsibilities... I'll probably come to regret this later on, but at least I can part out what will then be my old PC running on 2019 hardware. I'll upgrade to a 50 series card down the line - I am looking to get into environmental design and simulation for the next advancement in my career, so I guess I gotta make this worth it

@phillgt2002 what monitor is that?

It's the MSI MAG 321UP 31.5" 4K 165Hz QD-OLED.
I had been eying it for the past like.. 4 or 5 months since I've been working and gaming on a 4k 60hz display with awful ghosting. Thought I'd pair the processor with something that can push it a little further.
