I'm wondering if, given the astronomical prices of commercial progressive reloading presses, has anyone started a project to try to build a DIY model? Say with hardware store gear, SendCutSend, and 3D printing?
I recently upgraded to a Thinkpad P15 Gen 1. Most relevantly, it has an RTX 3000 graphics adapter which I was really looking forward to after years of running an Intel HD 620.
Problem is, there seems to be some kind of issue with the graphics. I first noticed this as frame tearing when watching video in VLC. Then I noticed that when I tried to set it up for multiple monitors over Thunderbolt, things went wrong. Performance was nowhere near as good as it should have been: not even as good as my old E570 running dual monitors off the HD 620. The system would frequently fail to resume from standby. After doing some research I disconnected the MST dock I was using. Going back to just the laptop's internal monitor helped, but I'm still having performance problems if I do something as simple as run video in my browser at the same time as playing Terraria. Can anyone offer some insight?
nvidia-smi confirms I'm running on the RTX 3000, I've checked that nothing is spiking my CPU use. Diagnostics give me the following error block:
