I believe there are instructions to build your own if you are so inclined to do so. Maybe also contact the intiiator of this post and see if someone would make one?

I believe you can also lower your window and let the car fill and then exit thru window if you are thin enough. But having that glass breaker is best once the car is full.

Our major cities are packed. But Ottawa (where I live) has lots of bike paths and they are making more to try and force people to use public transportation/bikes etc. I live 20KM from the downtown core which is pretty much where I work (federal gov't) and at my age I'm trying to keep active to stay ...

I just biked to work. Just over 1 hour. 23KM. Yes, it's crazy. In the morning I use the roads as it cuts 2KM off my trek. In the PM, I use the bike path next to the river. It adds an extra 2KM to my ride. On weekends, I tend to do about 60KM mostly on paths but some roads (with bike lane). I live li...

Re: Looking at a new build.

Ok, I swithced it to a 13900KF. It's 130$ more but oh well. You only live once. :D

EDIT: Krom, would you recommend just dropping to an I7 instead of an I9?

I7 is almost 300 cheaper

Re: Looking at a new build.

So I was not able to find the first 2 coolers at my PC shop but the Noctua was there.

I prefer staying with 64 Gigs RAM and upping to a 4080 is to much more money.

I switched to the lower CPU though.

The current config comes to $2931 plus taxes.

We have to keep this stuff. Since Overload didn't make much money, I highly doubt any other 6DOF games will ever be made. Sadly , I don't have much time to play anymore so I concentrate my time in 1-2 games and Descent/Overload isn't in it anymore. I spent 15 years playing this from 94-2010 ish and ...
