Your daughter could likely follow her dreams now.

That's enough to not worry about money again. As long as he treats her well and she's happy, then you and your husband should do their best to support her and her choices.

You're her parents, she doesn't need undue stress from y'all. It sounds like she has a good head on her shoulders, just try to understand, support and love her.

I have the S1 plus. I've upgraded everything from the bed to the extruder.

The biggest benefit I've seen is from removing the stock software and using klipper. It's a lot to setup and calibrate, but it works well.

It sounds like you've done it perfectly. I'd suggest trying a different heatblock, but I doubt that would make a difference. Make sure they are all aligned in your extruder with no obstruction when you look through end to end.

I've had to do some heating and cleaning of my heatblock and heatbreak when replacing parts to remove bits of plastic. (Gentle wire brush and a burner lighter).

The only other thing that comes to mind is your thermistor or heatblock cartridge being damaged and reporting the wrong temperature. Temps too high or too low can lead to clogging.

If I were you and I had tried all these things, I would get a new extruder and see if that fixes the issue.

I recently moved to an all metal hotend on my S1 plus and had an issue with clogging. Turned out that there was a little gap between the heartbreak and the nozzle which was causing clogging. After a good tightening, it worked well.

Make sure there is no gap between your Bowden/break/nozzle. Check if any filament is seeping between them.

Any recent software changes?

I've been tuning to print at a 0.1mm layer height, the ironing turned out like this. The left side of the Z is a little textured and more shiny.

Why did this happen and how could I fix it?

It's time for me to build a new gaming computer. I'm looking to build something that will last me the next 5 years, my last 5 year build is at its end.

My planned build:

6000MT/s 64GB 32x2 gskill trident z5

PCIe 4.0 m.2 nvme 2TB mushkin vortex

Asus prime z670p

AMD Ryzen 9 7900x

Case, PSU, water cooling are just fun extras.

I use a lot of VMware, hence the memory. And I game a bunch, mostly EFT (tarkov) of late.

I like AMD, I've always had an AMD CPU, usually with Nvidia GFX.

I'm want to try AMD for graphics. I run 2k graphics, but I see myself getting a 4k 27inch freesync monitor in the future.

I'm looking at the 7900 xtx, it's just super pricey. It's about a year old, so it doesn't feel like a good decision.

I'm looking for a graphics card recommendation, I'd appreciate any other comments or suggestions for the rest of my build.
