Is MSI Afterburner still a must?
  • It is not the drivers that dictate the fan but the GPU bios. So how the card behaves depends on how the manufacturer tuned it which is to say, these days it'll work fine. Many "high end" cards usually have a bios switch for silent or turbo mode so whatever.

    Back when I had a 1080ti, I used afterburner to set my own fan curve. And now with my rx6900xt I use AMD's adrenaline because it actually works great for many things including setting a custom fan curve . I've heard Nvidia's first party software was a bit of a mess for oc stuff so that's why Afterburner became so popular but I never installed anything past Nvidia's drivers so maybe it's good now, who knows.

  • Nozzle size for masks and helmets
  • It depends more on how much time you want to spend on post processing and how detailed the part is. Teller layers means more time spent filling and smoothing.

    You can print at .2 layer height with a .6 noz and benefit from a thicker line width, giving you stronger parts but the overall time to print will still be similar compared to a .4 noz.

  • Noob Question. Under what riding/trail conditions would I want to adjust my suspension?
  • You should set the psi for your weight and check that once in a while as part of your normal maintenance. Flipping between the different modes is as you feel necessary. Generally this means flip to lock out when you expect sustained climbing, slow for mostly flat sections, and open when going down hill. This is how I personally use the lock out feature when I ride.

  • Noob Question. Under what riding/trail conditions would I want to adjust my suspension?
  • Lock out when climbing, low speed when you need a little give i.e. climbing and it's bumpy or more xc stuff. Suspension absorbs energy, this includes you pedaling. Locking it out or reducing it allows the effort you make while peddling be more effective. Some people lock it out when doing jumps too.
