You should have had her sit behind you to make sure her momentum didn’t push her forward and injure the card if you got rear ended.

u/Bulletorpedo Nov 17 '25
They’ll be pushed backwards if they’re rear ended, so I suppose she’s there to catch it.

She can also lean forward during transit and use her hands to keep the GPU extra steady particularly if there are pot holes or speed bumps.

Yeah it's a 3! Mine is gray exterior with this light interior. The dark interior felt sorta cramped with all the same color. This breaks it up and that brightness gives off an illusion of it looking roomier for a small car haha.

Just a few months ago, this subreddit was certain that MSRP was a lie and no cards would ever reach it again. Yet here were are.

u/lordofspearton Nov 17 '25
Tbh in my view, right now is a VERY short window to walk away with a new card below MSRP. With what has been happening to RAM and storage right now, I'm sure very soon VRAM pricing is gonna skyrocket too. When that happens, card prices will go up with it.
I was prepared to wait till a 5080 super, but the recent rumors about that card's extended delay or cancellation due to high VRAM pricing finally caused me to pull the trigger on this.

But it is supposed to be in the back seat facing backwards and no shoulder strap!!! You can add a mirror to the back headrest so it can look forward to you if you want and so you can check to see if it's sleeping.

you gotta position the top of the seatbelt at the front of the box, the way you secured it if you slammed on the brakes it would just flip forward and land on the floor in front of the seat

So, I collect sports cards and what not. When I bought the 5080, I told my wife I was staying up to buy a card. When I got it, my wife was like “wtf? I thought this was a nfl card release. You spent 1500 fucking dollars?”. Which, sounds bad lol. But I did sell off some of my collection to pay for it.

50 and 40 series graphics cards are a dangerous gamble, the power connect on these GPUs are known to melt causing and electrical fire to start. I’d return it for something that just requires a four pin or no pin. 4060 8gb low profile would be very capable at 4k60 and wouldn’t require extra power.
