Excellent, we will watch your career with great interest! ;)

I have some batch jobs on my windows machine that do it, so I guess I could go to the trouble of building my own container to run them, was just looking for an easy way out ;)

I'll have to check this out. By any chance can you give it a Playlist and have it monitor it for changes and auto-download any new entries?

I'm not the OP but I like how you are thinking. Might look into this idea myself.

True, true it is just a deposit, but it certainly helps. Compared to England where I lived until I was 38 there are far fewer bottles littering the streets here in Denmark, although a lot of that can be put down to general public attitude probably. Never had a bottle stab me! Sounds like a case of bad quality control.

Oh wait.. PANT & pants.. So was being a bit slow! 😂

Normally one or the other is enough. Wearing both is 'more than needed" but does work as a safety net. :)

Maybe they make them better here in Denmark. Plus we have "Pant" where you pay more for the bottles but get money back when you return them so it's a "belt and braces" approach I guess!

Perhaps becuase you've only opened it half way, you need to lift it back over again and clip in under the rim.

My wife and I have been playing a lot of the 2 player varient of The Crew this month. Works really well with the "Jarvis" third player and makes for a good quick game to real through a few missions of.

At my age with my eyesight a little up-scaling is fine, especially as I've been having to spend the past few years playing newer games at half resolution sometimes to get decent frame-rates on the 1660 ;) I'll certainly be keeping an eye out for any price drops when the next series of cards come out. Hoping this build will be one I can tinker with better parts as the prices drop in the future.

Hello all, looking for a sanity check and any advice from you good folks. I've always built my own PCs, however I haven't done a build for myself in some time. For a bit of perspective my current system is an i5-3750... so yup.

Anyways, I'm thinking of hopping up to an AM5 system hoping that it will be valid for a few years (though maybe not the 10+ I've had out of this system!) while also getting in as relatively cheaply as possible, whilst still being in a fairly solid place. So my thought are as follows:

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 7600X (Cooling via a Pure Rock 2)
MoBo: ASUS TUF Gaming B650-PLUS WiFi
RAM: Kingston FURY Beast DDR5 6000Mhz 32GB
GFX: MSI RTX 3060 Ventus 2X (12GB)
NVMe: WD Black SN770 2TB
PSU: Corsair RM850e
Case: NZXT H7 Flow Midi Tower (Will be a shame to let go of my old NZXT Phantom but too many of the fans are weird sizes so awkward to replace, and wasn't designed with modern AIOs in mind, should I go that route in the future.)

A couple of extra bits of information:

It's mainly a system I will use for gaming, though these days there's not so many fast pace shooters as there are slow paced city builders and the like, so ultimate frame rates are not a super top priority for me. Edit: Gaming on a 1440P LG Ultragear

I went RTX 3060 as it seemed to be the cheapest way to get a relatively modern card (Currently using a GTX 1660 Ti) with 12GB of VRAM, as I've started playing around a lot with AI Image Generation which does like to eat up VRAM.

PSU is probably way more than this system will need, but figured it was best to leave headroom for future CPU/GPU upgrades, and the price difference for lower wattages seems negligible. (Contemplated a 1000W, but there the price jump seems to lie)

So any advice, or just "yup looks good" feedback would be welcomed before I jump back in to building.

Oh also this build is currently around the 10,000 DKK range and hoping to stick around that area. ($1,400 / £1,150 / €1,350)

 

Continuing to work on getting realistic skin tones.

 

Just moved over to using ComfyUI from Automatic1111, and been working on a theme of "Shield Maidens"
