![]() This is a non-night vision version of EOTech’s shortest and lightest HWS sight, so far. Since there were no iron sights, and a magnified optic would not suit my purpose on such a short-barreled AR, I went with an EOTech HWS XPS2. The BAMF was definitely stripped down compared to its more notable product line, but it still has the amazing fit and finish, as well as enough custom touches to keep it relevant. I tried several other magazines as well, including Surefeed GI-pattern magazines made by Okay Industries, HK steel and polymer magazines, and a Schmeisser 60-round magazine by ATI. This pistol shipped with a single Magpul 30-round windowed magazine with Cobalt’s logo prominently featured. An end plate on the brace accommodates a single QD position as well. The sides of the hand guards had a single M-Lok slot, 2 QD points on either side, and the bottom sports a single M-Lok slot. The entire top of the upper receiver and the matching handguard was a continuous Picatinny rail with three M-Lok slots on the handguard for mounting accessories. The traditional billeted grip was replaced by a Hogue finger groove grip. It does not change or eliminate the sound signature like a suppressor does it simply pushes it forward reducing noise pollution from the shooter’s perspective. In case you’re not familiar with that term, a linear compensator primarily propels gas and concussion forward of the shooter. With a 6.5-inch barrel, the new linear compensator was mostly beneath the handguards. ![]() I expected to unleash a little flamethrower that would rattle my teeth and ring my ears through the muffs. Afterall, if a high-pressure rifle round won’t chamber, why force a cartridge into the chamber? I was never a big fan of the forward assist as it was. The barrel was threaded ½x28” and wore a linear compensator.Īs much as I liked the dual bolt drop and was sad to see it go, I can understand why. 223 Remington and 5.56 NATO without worry. Cobalt Kinetics also retained the Radian charging handle and unique ambidextrous magazine release. However, the selector is still ambidextrous. The dual bolt drop was gone, as was the short-throw selector. Externally, it resembled Cobalt Kinetics’ traditional designs with its perfect Cerakote finish in a stainless-looking gunmetal grey and flawless fit between upper and lower receivers. This one was equipped with a telescoping PDW-style brace. The BAMFĬobalt sent us a BAMF Pro pistol for test and evaluation. The answer appears to be a resounding “Yes!” Now, with that out of the way, let’s get back the details we all crave. However, the question remained, “Would these new rifles and pistols actually justify the relatively high cost that remained?” Those two, combined with good comp, intermediate gas barrel and the LMOS, could make for a flat shooting rifle.Would Cobalt’s products sell without the dual bolt drop or CARS? The reduction in innovative features lowered the price by over $1,000. You didn't even mention adjustable gas block (SLR Sentry is my pref) and buffer system (Taccom lightweight or JP SCS). Timney Comp or Calvin Elite come to mind.Ĭomp: If you're going all-out, get the best functional comp. Trigger: There are better triggers than Hiperfire on the market for a 223 AR, though they are pretty bulletproof. Or with the money you're saving not buying Cobalt, go with a Swaro z8i. Scope: At that price point, HD Razor 2e 1-8 or new 1-10. There are more functional stocks on the market. Stock/Buffer: I'm assuming this is just for looks. I'd look at 2A Arms latest forged lightweight receiver set. If you're just going for looks, sure, but there are better options. Their speedhole receivers are heavier than a normal forged set. Rainier has an Ultramatch 16" intermediate gas fluted barrel that is 1/3 the price of Proof, $100 less than a Stretch16, and looks like the hot ticket right now.į1: Ugh. The LMOS will last forever, and the difference is minimal.īarrel: Proof is nice, but sometimes the extra weight of a "normal" barrel is better for control. The ULMOS is aluminum, and is a short lifetime part, even according to JP. Please be mindful of reddit's few rules and practice good reddiquette.

Unfortunately, this action left Durant without a locomotive. The cars of nervous dignitaries then coasted across the unstable structure. However, after assuring Durant that the bridge would support the lighter passenger coaches, the engineer gave each coach a push with his locomotive. This left the bridge unsafe for the heavy engine, and the engineer refused to cross. When the Durant Special reached the river at the Devil’s Gate Bridge, the locomotive’s engineer saw the raging water had removed some of the bridge supports. While Durant was delayed, the rain-swollen Weber River continued to rise. The delay caused Durant substantial embarrassment, cost his original locomotive her place in history, and moved the Golden Spike Ceremony to May 10. ![]() There to greet Durant were over 400 laid off tie cutters, who had been waiting three months to be paid.ĭurant’s coach was immediately chained to the siding and after a delay of nearly two days, the men’s pay arrived.

There she had a loyal following and only one more change awaited “Ol’ One Spot.” Being the first locomotive on their railroad, the GVG&N renamed her No. 1195 was sold later that same year to the Gila Valley, Globe, and Northern Railroad in Arizona. 1195 was converted into a coal burning locomotive. Even her pilot, which had vertical slats, was replaced with one having horizontal slats. The name change was accompanied by even greater changes such as a new boiler and new bonnet. The Jupiter name was dropped in the 1870’s when the locomotive was repainted. ![]() In 1885, Central Pacific was absorbed into the Southern Pacific Railroad system.

It’s built for a more professional audience than VideoStudio and includes support for multicam video, stop-motion video, motion tracking, 360-degree VR, and 4K video. Pinnacle Studio comes to us from the same makers of VideoStudio Ultimate, graphics and media heavy-hitter Corel, so it should come as no surprise that it’s made our list of the best video editing software. Unless you’re wed to Creative Cloud, Final Cut Pro has a lot to offer. There’s no shortage of advanced features, like the Magnetic Timeline, range-of-effect options, and intelligent Smart Conform cropping, which follows dominant motion on screen to ensure nothing essential gets cut. It’s built to take advantage of Metal for wicked-fast graphics, and is optimized for Mac Pro. While Premiere Pro works beautifully with Creative Cloud (and if that’s your primary workspace, then we recommend Adobe’s video editing software), Final Cut Pro fits perfectly into the larger Apple ecosystem. Fortunately, Final Cut Pro also comes with a free 90-day trial, so you’ll have time to play around before making any decisions. While in the long run it’s certainly cheaper than shelling out each month for a subscription, some users may be hesitant to commit to spending such a large sum. However, it does come with a bit of a hefty price tag. Unlike Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro isn’t subscription-based. However, there are some important differences.

Let me know in the comments. The upside is incredible flexibility when it comes to monitoring your PC vitals. HWiNFO is not necessarily hard to use, but it’s not what I would call intuitive. Then, in the lower part of the left panel, we see the entry corresponding to the. Next we go to the Performance tab, where we find various components of the team. We achieve this through the key combination Ctrl + Shift + Esc so that this useful tool appears on the screen. Not only that, but HWiNFO can send the info it collects directly to programs like Rainmeter, which can be used to display the info directly on your desktop, or to MSI Afterburner, which can overlay the stats in the corner of the screen when you’re gaming. To do this, at first all we have to do is open Windows 10 Task Manager. Here you can also configure the app to show stats directly in the System Tray, just like Core Temp does. Dig into the settings cogwheel icon to access the option. HWiNFO can also display averages in the period the app is open. I would just add the main CPU Die average temperature. Yes, you can customize each icon (text and background color) and you can hover over the icon, but the whole point is to see everything at a glance, right? Maybe in a future update, Microsoft will add the CPU temperature monitoring option in the Task Manager, as it did with the GPU temperature.ĭon’t go overboard with this, as you will surely clutter the System Tray to the point you won’t know what temperature you’re monitoring. So no, it is not possible to check CPU temperature in Windows 11 without software. Unlike the GPU temperature, which is easy to check in Windows 11, directly from the Task Manager, and the SSD temperature reading available in the Settings, when it comes to the CPU you will need to install a third-party app. Maybe I’m just looking for a reason to upgrade, who knows?Īnyway, in this article I’m going to show you how to check the CPU temperature in Windows 10 and 11. Personally, I do check regularly my PC temps, especially when I know I haven’t cleaned it for dust in a while, in the summer, or when the placebo hits and I get the impression the PC is not fast “as it was before”. Worst case, you’ll be degrading your components faster. These can cause (sometimes) unseen issues which result in not getting the performance you paid for. This way you could make sure there are no manufacturing or assembly problems. That being said, it’s important to check CPU, GPU, SSD temperatures, and other sensible components, at least in the first few days after you buy a new PC or laptop. Finally, replacing a better CPU cooler is also a good fit.With adequate cooling, they will also boost over the baseline specs in order to increase performance. Besides, it is recommended that we should clean up the CPU cooler regularly. ![]() You can also click/tap on the GPU you want in the left pane to see its current temperature and more details in the right pane. (see screenshots below) 3 You will see the current GPU temperature next to its listing in the left pane. Firstly, we can reduce loads of CPU such as disabling the bloatware or restarting the computer. Heres How: 1 Open Task Manager (Ctrl+Shift+Escape) 2 Click/tap on the Performance tab. If the processor temperature is always over 70 ℃ (158℉), we should try to lower it. Generally speaking, the normal CPU temperature range is about 45 – 65 ℃ (113 – 149℉). The normal CPU temperature is various, which depends on the manufacturers and models. Tips about CPU temperatureĪfter you have known how to check the CPU temperature, you should have a clear understanding of the CPU temperature. Unfortunately, this way only allows you to check the CPU temperature once and it is useless if you want to check the CPU temperature when using the computer. Once you enter BIOS, it will show you the temperature right on the main screen of BIOS. To access BIOS, we can press one of several keyboard keys (Esc, F2, F10 or F12, depending on the manufacturer or motherboard) when the computer is booting up. BIOS on most motherboards also allows you to monitor the hardware status, including CPU temperature. BIOS is the firmware used to perform hardware initialization during the booting process. ![]() To me it’s just another demonstration of how ridiculous and needless the political division is right now. In the end I think Arnold will bounce back and this won’t define his legacy – though due to how stubborn he is, I doubt he’ll back peddle early enough to avoid any damage. My point is that by seemingly giving a middle finger to people who have more conservative values, Arnold essentially pissed off the exact people who would have most admired his bodybuilding achievements.Īgain, I don’t think this was intentional on his part, but pissing off your own fanbase doesn’t usually work out well (just ask Kevin Smith who masterfully alienated his fanbase recently). In the case of Arnold, the fact that he leans more left these days could be due to the fact he has spent the last several decades in Hollywood, perhaps over compensation for his father’s Nazi affiliation or maybe he’s just one of the outliers. ![]() I’m not just speaking out of my ass here, psychological profiles have been done and it seems to be the case that the majority of people who value fitness also tend to have conservative political tendencies – even if they don’t think of themselves as right wing. The latter mentality doesn’t tend to work well in the fitness world because no one else can do the work for you. When we look at what people on the right value compared to what people on the left value, the right tends to see the virtue of insentivising hard work while the left opts towards socialism and sharing the wealth. The big problem with his comment is that it is not only divisive, but alienating to the very people who would look up to him.Īt the moment the world is extremely divided, and it is the right-leaning people who feels like their freedoms are under attack, so his comment would clearly be more upsetting to conservative-minded people. He could have said that there are obvious limitations to what you can or can’t do in a civilized society, and that doesn’t constitute an infringement on freedom.Īnd I think he does deserve the benefit of the doubt and the opportunity to clarify his intentions by the remark – just as everybody deserves that. He could have said that freedom doesn’t mean you can cause other people harm. ![]() He could have said that his concern was people hiding behind the word “freedom” to justify actions that could endanger others. I kind of think he could have avoided this if he’d chosen his words a little better. You look at a company like Redcon 1, whose client base is predominantly people who also value things like patriotism and freedom, so to have someone imply those things are unimportant puts a company in a difficult position where they have to decide whether to brush it off and keep paying him, or cut ties. Personally, it looks like a business decision. So first of all, is this an over reaction? The respomse was pretty intense, as it saw supplement companies pulling their sponsorships from the Arnold classic, posters of him being taken out of major gyms and so on. On a recent interview (I believe with non-partisan outlet CNN), Arnold Schwarzenegger made the comment “screw your freedom” referring to individuals who don’t want to wear masks or get vaccinated. Not often do I write about the drama that seems to be ever-present in the bodybuilding world, but this one is pretty big. ![]()
