You must have gotten a Chinesium gasket. Fel-pro stuff is good.

You have to make sure if your engine has an oil cooler running through the mount or not. If it has that cooler, you'll have to source a mount that can accept the cooler lines. I'm not sure which models interchange with that, not know any part numbers.

This is the correct answer.

This is a rip off, 100%. For that kind of money, as others have said, just buy a new one.

There are a lot of gray market sellers out there. I've been able to score Windows 11 for $16, and Office 21 and Acrobat DC Pro 19 or $24 each on G2A. Very good deals, and yes they are legitimate.

If you can't compete, then you deserve to go out out business. (This is why I was so against the bank, GM, and Dodge bailouts. Let them rot on the vine, as they will be replaced by newer, hungrier, and better companies.) But that's simply not allowed to happen because of crooked state laws...

If anyone busts out the 4 square, don't say a word, simply get up and walk out.

Also, why are negotiations even a thing? You don't go into Publix and negotiate on the price of your Corn Flakes. The price is right there. And of you don't like it, you simply go next door to Food Lion. That's the free market working.

But it's not a free market at all. As I said before, dealership are codified by state law. In a truly free market, this wouldn't be the case.

Download a free application called Fan Control. It works miracles quieting down your rig. Also, everybody and their brother has used a 212 at one time or another! I have one in my XP rig right now!

Tesla wanted to completely do away with the utterly useless dealership model, but because car dealers bribe, I mean, donate to the campaigns of so many politicians, that ancient model is baked into almost every state's code of laws. Without actually changing the laws on a state by state basis...

This is true, depending on the design of the case. The case that my wife's build is in, it would be no bueno, because it would only leave like 1/4" gap between the fans and the side panel. However, in my son's case, there is a good 3" between the card and the side panel. That's absolutely...

If you get a heavy card, especially a modern triple slot 3 fan one, the board can and will sag after time. And that ain't good, as not only is your expensive GPU turning into a noodle, it also puts undo pressure on the motherboard's PCI-E slot. On a 2 slot 2 fan card, it's not as bad, but it...

I use Pennzoil Ultra Platinum. Great price, and outstanding oil.

In a word, no. What will void it is not changing on time. I change mine every 5,000 because it's easy to keep track of: just look at the odometer! Every 5K, time for an oil change.

Since you're still under warranty, I'd just stick with whatever the oil cap says (probably 0W-20 but yours may be different) and OEM filters. Heck, I use OEM filters anyway.

I love the little jack stand! That's neat! For others that don't have a 3d printer, these are the mounts that I have found that work really well. Or, something else I just finished up a few days ago, I did my first vertical GPU in my older son's computer. I do have to say I love the way it looks.

I went over 20 years without building a PC. It was so long, up until last year, the last computer I built myself had a GeForce3 Ti200 in it! That was what? 2001? Off-lease Prebuilts are just so damned cheap. I had a lot of catching up to do. Everything, and I mean *everything* changed. Optical...

BEAST. For real. I can generally get about 7-10 years out of a build anymore. I went from a 4790 to a 12700K. That's 8 generations! And I still have the 4790 upstairs, it's my bedroom computer now. The question I want to know is, why do I have 10 PC's and 5 laptops? I really need to thin the...
