    I think at this point, reliability might be a bigger draw than a top-performer that chokes and burns itself out with dismal regularity.

    I'm pretty sure he wouldn't mind. And if I'm wrong, you can tell him to blame me.

    The Core 9 285K is a mixed bag for gaming. It does about as good as the 14900K; anywhere from 1-5% uplift from the 14900K. There aren't any major drawbacks (it's not going to self-destruct like the 13900K and 14900K) but it's not a performance topper either.

    Thanks. I have only been on this forum and building for little over a year. I don’t want to be a pest that bother anyone or do you think they don’t mind?

    Random Q for the performance/gaming aficionados here... have you any thoughts on the Intel Core Ultra 9 285K as a processor for a gaming rig? I know Intel's kind of on the outs with that community due to the issue with the 13900 and 14900, so I was wondering if that chip has any major drawbacks.

    Regardless of your conclusions, this is all off topic to the comparison of the Macross Quarter and Macross Elysion based on their official setting info so let's leave it there please.

    Oh, I'd forgotten this thread existed. I actually have something new to contribute... Doesn't look particularly rare, admittedly... at least, not from the front. The back, however, tells a whole 'nother story. 😎

    Talk to Arbit; I think he designed some in 3d print...

    Does anyone have the dimensions of the box for the VF-1 strike or super valk fighter? My brother is going to Japan for vacation and he is going to get me some model kits while there including, I hope, the strike battroid. I am guessing no one has dimensions on the strike battroid box as it does not come until October. He goes in October and he wants to plan how big of an empty suitcase he needs to bring. He is getting his own stuff as well.

    I would recommend aiming for a nice 1440p monitor that works at a high refresh rate. I'm also seeing better prices on packaged, pre-made PCs than parting out. Just find a brand that is friendly for DIY upgrades. You'll get more bang for your buck and you don't get sucked into the 4k/8k bs. High-refresh 1440p with all of today's graphics tech is fantastic. Also much more affordable. I game on a 150" 4k/1440P projector that runs at 144hz. Even at that size the smoothness and additional bells and whistles I can run at 1440p make the experience much better than 4k freesynced to anything 60-90hz.

    Thanks I'm already working on it

    I recently built my first PC in over ten years too. Went with 850M mATX as I don't think we need larger systems any more since almost everything is built into the mobo or can be installed on it, namely NVME drives. Going 4K means more pixels which means more power in GPU, minimum is a RTX 5090 these days imo. Recommend going for 1440p which is a nice medium with OLED displays. See my recent post in this thread on what I built. Also, take your time do a ton of research before making your purchase. There is a wealth of Youtube videos that helped me in my decision and build plans. I think I spent over two months researching before I settled on my build parts. EDIT: I found Christopher Flannigan's videos to be easy to watch and learn from for my new build. https://www.youtube.com/@ChristopherFlannigan/videos More edit: Recommend MSI mobos right now, they seem to be leading the pack when it comes to stability and features. Don't cheap out on important no name parts like the PSU and fans. Check out ID Cooling for cooling parts, they're way more affordable than the competition too. Last, skip the RGB crap. RGB does nothing for your system's performance and can add frustration if it doesn't work right. Learned that from my old system and skipping RGB for my new build made it soooo much easier.

    the text under the add to cart button is contradictory, stating that you will not be charged until the item is released. on the same page under the item description:

    What's your budget? The only boards that seem to still have 5.1 audio are the Asus TUF Gaming B850 line. One way you might be able to get around the lack of 3.5 audio jacks is to use a DAC and pipe the audio that way. I mentioned this way back ☝️but most folks are no longer using 5.1 systems because more folks are using headsets and a good pair of monitors(speakers) do much better than a 5.1 system. Yes, some people like the immersive sound, but in most current markets, folks are just not using multi-speaker sets anymore. 2.1 systems are more than enough. Whether you go with a 5070ti or wait for the Supers is up to you. The Supers, at least according to leaked specs are the same GPUs but with more and higher clocked memory. The Supers will get you farther but there is no real spec bump beyond memory. Nvidia is lowering prices of current GPUs to make room on shelves for the Supers. Rumor has it they might be the same MSRP-ish (we all know MSRP doesn't exists with any GPU). So if you buy now, you might get it for a decent price (i.e. MSRP 😱). If you wait, you will get a slightly better card for roughly the same price...roughly.

    @nightmareB4macrossThanks so much. I’ll take the compliment but I have so much to learn. I’d love to develop my own style of painting and I guess I sort of am haphazardly with every kit I complete. Hahaha Very excited to spend the next few weeks on this one. I might do some brush painted lacquers and some areas airbrush…Still undecided Lots of seams but many of them are not visible after completion which will save some time. Also first go at removing a mold line down the center of the canopy. I think it went well. Such a cool process of foggy scratched up surface to fine buff and polish until shiny at the end. I wish this kit had pilots. Oh well…

    I was just browsing YT and noticed you reposted this video, for a moment I thought you got hit with a copyright warning. Looking forward to your detailed review of the Tread, maybe even a comparison between Sentinel & the older Toynami Betas.

    I ordered directly from Pose+. Had to pay in full up front, but including shipping was only USD 440. but as I'm in Hong Kong and I guess it's gonna be shipping from mainland China, shipping was only about 10 bucks.

    Oops I did it again A commenter pointed out I was missing the step with the pegs that go into the legs and then fold in so I did a quick edit and here's the corrected video:
