Slowly buying pc parts to build low to mid end gaming pc for my nephew. Going amd with it. Going to give it to him for his confirmation, in may. He currently "games" on a 10 year old hp(or 9 year old) that can barely run Minecraft/TF2.

Bought yesterday a Black Lian-Li Lancool 205 mesh c case and a Thermalright Peerless Assassin120 SE ARGB.

The case comes with 2 front 140mm rgb fans and 1 120mm in the rear. Going to install 2 more 120mm fans on the top, cause I have some extra 120mm rgb fans lying around.

Also have for it a wifi/bluetooth card, cause for some reason I prefer to have a pcie card vs getting a mobo with the stuff built-in.

Also his case is going to have a total of 7 rgb fans, 2 front, 1 rear, 2 top and 2 on the cpu cooler, total overkill imo.

Just arrived, Now I can calibrate my torque wrenchs!
I've got a couple of torque wrenches, however how will you know your tester is correct - and how will you calibrate that? As long as you wind them off after using them they should be ok though, unless you have a digital one of course.

You put the exit of this sensor on a vise, and set the sensor on top reading mode, then you set your wrench on a desired value, you put the wrench on the input of the sensor and turn the wrench like you are torquing a nut until you hear the click (or beep) then you read the real applied torque on the sensor, you will know if your wrench is calibrated or need to correct the tensor spring.

Also you can use the sensor to convert any normal wrench on a torque one putting between the normal wrench and a socket.

By the way the sensor (Tester) becomes calibrated from factory, I choose the no so cheap one because have certificate of calibration from a a recognized industrial lab. Is supposed you can check the serial of the device on the page of the lab, .

Gotta get a set of these now. Was in a car accident that basically wrecked me. Stupid asshole ran a red light doing 50MPH+ and plowed into the passenger side of my Silverado. Totaled my truck. Totaled my nose from the airbag. Totaled my right wrist. Totaled my right leg below the knee. Been laid up in a hospital for a two weeks but I think I'm going home soon. One hell of a concussion.

It could be worse - at least you're not a ginger.

They have crazy deals sometimes I got lucky and noticed one 70% off listed at $10 seems they changed it or it was a bug and they shipped it out anyway.

65W USB C Charger Block, GaN Fast Charger, LIBRIDS Foldable Compact Dual Port PD USB C Wall Charger https://a.co/d/aKyrjM2

Sometime I worry about the quality of these charger, I only have two GaN chargers, one from Razer and one from Aya Neo for Aya Neo device.

If anything they'll just fail but two for $6 I can't gripe much even if they work the rest the year I have a back up. Plus SteamDeck is pretty reliable about slow chargers it's a good tester to see if it actually pumps enough juice for it which I mainly use them for.
