  1. only a month late to the call- the charging buffalo used to have a page with all the prospects and their stats. I found my old link, which is now dead. The people behind it seem to be running a substack with blogposts now, but I don't see a consolidated stats page. https://substack.com/@thechargingbuffalo/posts
  2. I know little about the process, but you probably want to test if the chip is functional before you take that next step. It's a tiny risk, but let's assume the worst case scenario and you get a chip that's dead on arrival. If you tried it in your rig first, then just return it and get a fresh one and try again. If you delid first and it's bad, you're out of luck and aren't sure if it was a bad chip or bad delid, but it doesn't matter because the warranty's gone, so you buy a new one. I wouldn't delid but again, I'm a coward and would be so blown away by your machine that I probably wouldn't notice the small jump in performance. You can always* delid later if you want to squeeze that last bit of juice from the fruit. That said, it's your big build and if you're looking for someone to say go for it, *maybe. Is it a pain in the neck to get at the chip if you've got your custom water cooling setup?
  3. For sure, catching up on the new tech is almost as much fun as actually having the new machine and I draw out that learning process as long as I can. I spent a couple months in the beginning of the year prepping and spreadsheeting before building my system and it rocked. I don't think I would (or could) have waited if I had a 4090 in my budget though. I need to improve my vanilla twin qhd monitors to truly appreciate my card as is, I sent back a pair that had terrible ips bleed and a third got damaged en route and never arrived. I might have to bite the bullet on oled but that seems crazy for a screen that's mostly static. I'm too much of a coward to delid and I don't push my machine enough to worry about thermals, but it seems like it's a lot more foolproof than it used to be.
  4. win win you don't have to break anything or spend time learning nerdy things the other person gets paid to do the fun stuff
  5. He could buy himself out of his contract, but the Sabres couldn't be involved in any way. The Leafs got their hands slapped in 2008 (6 figure fine, lost a 4th round pick) when they helped Jonas Frogren buy his way out of his deal with Farjestad in Sweden. It was under a different CBA, but it would still be viewed as benefits outside the CBA or tampering.

    Tech Help?

    It might be worth joining another forum that uses the same forum software (IP Board) to see if it's an issue with this forum specifically or a permissions setting that's not checked in the browser. http://forums.rotoworld.com/?showforum=3 http://www.gomeangreen.com/forums/forum/2-mean-green-basketball/ edit: well, drat.
  7. Even if the Sabres lose the lottery, Murray will step up to the podium and point at McDavid. Connor will take off the number one team's jersey, toss it aside, and walk up to the stage.
  8. Geez, I'm getting called out. "Not good."
  9. Sporting News ran a response piece to the puck daddy drivel: Much better.
  10. Werenski slides to 29th? It must have taken a lot of effort to write down names and drop them in a hat, but otherwise no... the guy isn't even trying. Maybe it's an old rank?
  11. To be fair, they have only played the Islanders one time this season.
  12. It was a beauty of an assist through the defenseman's legs. The announcers continue their Domi lovefest by talking about how relentless his legs were after the Reinhart faceoff loss to put himself right next to the net for the tap-in.
  13. McDavid has a goal and an assist through one period versus Germany tonight. Canada's up 2-0. Domi has been looking for the breakaway pass a couple of times--Petan hit him out of the penalty box, save, and Reinhart had the pass picked off while waiting for Domi to get on the same page. Reinhart has been out on the first penalty kill. He has a couple of clean faceoff wins, he glanced a shot of a d-man's leg while on a nice penalty kill with Domi down low, and (like expected) he hasn't been too flashy. He's always in good position coming back. With Duclair and Domi taking off like greyhounds, it's probably good they have someone so responsible anchoring the line.
  14. He was on the roster. Olofsson, Victor RW 5’11” 177 He is intriguing, for sure. There's very little info on him. He plays the point on the power play as a forward and he's taken a couple (few?) penalty shots which seems to say a lot about his hands for a young kid in a men's league. We've got enough picks that we can afford to let him simmer for a while. At a 7th round value it's hard to go wrong, but to see a kid putting up good numbers in a men's league and play power play time on a powerhouse wjc team is great to see. If we can hit it big with one of these super late lottery pick guys, it'll give this rebuild a big shot in the arm...
  15. Olofsson came close to tipping an Aho shot on the power play, but it looks like it went straight in. He's getting second unit pp time. He's a plus one with no shots on goal so far in the third.
