HM09 Lava Surf Mod for Gen 4

I’ve been messing around with making my own editor for Gen 4 games and I made a mod today that allows you to surf on lava. Just simply get HM09, teach it to a fire type, and you’re good to go!

UPDATE: Since making this post, I’ve made two updates. First, the splash that you see at the beginning of the battle is now a reddish-orange matching the lava. Second, the lava in the overworld is now animated like it is outside Stark Mountain.

Upgrading a Pre-Built

I bought my Pre-Built PC a year ago and I honestly love it. It was my first exposure to PC gaming. I probably would have gotten something a little more powerful if I knew I was going to use it as much as I have been.

Here are the specs:
Build: CyberPowerPC GXi3800BST
CPU: Intel Core i9-14900F
GPU: MSI GeForce RTX 5070 12GB GDDR7
Motherboard: Gigabyte B760M C V3 (mATX, LGA1700, PCIe 5.0 x16)
RAM: 2×16GB TeamGroup UD5-6400 DDR5-6400 (XMP on, running at 6400, 2 of 4 slots used)
Storage: 1TB WD Blue SN580 NVMe (PCIe 4.0 x4) - 1 free PCIe 4.0 x4 M.2 slot
PSU: Apevia ATX-PR850W - 850W, 80+ Gold, 70.8A on +12V (849.6W), 4× PCIe 6+2 + native 12VHPWR
Case: Montech HS01 Curve 360V mid tower, 420mm GPU clearance

Anyway, I want to upgrade the GPU since I have an ultrawide monitor so it’s a little more demanding than standard 1440p and I think the extra firepower and VRAM of a better GPU would help. I’m looking at either the RTX 5070Ti or the RTX 5080 and my questions are basically as follows:
Is this a logical decision? Would my upgraded GPU be a waste of money because something else would bottleneck it from reaching its max performance?
Any insight into this decision, and upgrading GPUs in general, would be greatly appreciated.

Is ShopFad reputable for desks?

I’ve been searching for a new desk for like a week now. I finally found one that seems to fit the space I have perfectly and has the look that I want. My main concern is it’s from a website I’ve never heard of before and I don’t see much info about it online.

So my two questions are 1. Is this site reputable? and 2. If it isn’t, does anyone know where I can find a desk that looks like this on a more reputable site?

This card is in great condition and I used a centering tool online and it seems to be within the 55/45 centering for a 10. Edges and corners are all in great condition. Only issue i noticed is this white line which I would assume is a print line that is very hard to spot and only noticeable when the light is shining on it for certain angles (as you can see, it isn’t visible in the second image).
