    WTB: parts to build a desktop (high school workload)

    $220 seems a bit steep. I just picked up a 2500k system with 60GB SSD, 500GB HDD, 16GB of RAM, and an RX570 for $200 locally here in Orange County, CA.

    SOLD: 27" Acer Predator XB270HU 144Hz G-Sync IPS monitor

    I play Diablo 3. Any idea on how well my GTX 970 would do at 1440p 144Hz? Not sure I have the budget to get monitor and then also a 1080 or something.

    M.2 NVMe as SATA possible?

    WTS: Google Pixel 128gb Quite Black

    I'm not sure. I was suggesting it to OP if his main detractor for Android is that missing feature.

    My SSD dead?

    That's a great choice (I don't work for Samsung but can admire good quality at a good price). I personally wouldn't enable RAPID, especially if you don't have a USP.

    My SSD dead?

    It is, but MTTF (mean time to failure) is now measured between 1-2 million hours for most SSDs (ie longer than most lifetimes).

    One Broadband Connection, Two Lans... How To?

    Interesting. Before I changed to Google WiFi I used to have a router downstairs and another router upstairs configured as an AP. Both had "guest network" features. I guess I never checked that the "guest network" on the AP was actually isolating clients connected to it from other devices on my...

    One Broadband Connection, Two Lans... How To?

    Why would it need to do the routing? Wouldn't this bypass the need to be on a separate LAN as all the devices are isolated?
