Who was offering solely health advice? If you mean Dan's post, he highlighted the PC effects first. The health part is just a blurb. A lot of people are commenting on the PC aspects first. Which factually it is just harmful. To your PC parts, to...
I've worked in shops repairing PC's back in the day and I hated it when some smoker would bring their systems in. Even under the best scenarios, you'd have a thin sticky coating on everything and the computer would stink. More extreme cases it...
I see, fair enough, teaches me to make posts when I'm about to pass out from sleep deprivation.
Well, I gave you an option for a case, and posted my temps. Are you just determined to stick with fractal design?
Doesn't he have to get rid of some his 140mm fans if he does that, though? I'm not sure how this case works and what the bracket restricts. I don't think it'll make any functional difference whether he half asses it or not tbh. *Shrug*
I'm pretty sure you could just either mount half of it, or mount it diagonally and only use 2 screws. 2 screws is plenty for keeping a radiator on, from my experience. It's not that heavy, and you're screwing metal into metal.
For what it's...
I tested it out, it does post with my CPU and RAM, so looks good. Updated the BIOS for them, too. I'll ship it out to them whenever they get their finances together. 50% off is a pretty nice savings lol, this feels like a pretty good mobo...
My friend is building a new computer. I noticed the motherboard they wanted to get for their new AM5 build was in Microcenter's open box section for half off (MSI Mag Tomahawk B650, marked down to 99$ from 199$). I picked it up for them. I'm...
So you read the serial numbers on each IC on the PCB? That's great. But I wouldn't be surprised if Samsung also did some cost cutting measures over time, like making chips that were "supposedly comparable" to ones on the device (and labeling them...
Yes. The problem is that the games that do not run at decent refresh rates at current 4k native don't just run "kind of low", I think they run really low. If I hit 20fps on a 4090, getting 36FPS instead isn't going to just make my day. And if I...
I realized that, but the end result still looks silly to me. Just make it a bullet point on the side rather than making people guess why you have your logo stamped everywhere.
... Do they...
I kind of feel it's a little comical that Samsung decided to stamp its company name on every single chip they could in this demo shot lol. I don't know why, it's just making me giggle a bit. Kind of surprised they didn't somehow find a way to...
I certainly hope not. The 5090 just being 80% (assuming this number holds) faster at only gaming is probably not enough for me to invest in one. If they completely gimp the Stable Diffusion and AI workload speed, I would probably not even bother...
Forgot to update this, but I have had it installed for... about 9-10 days now?
Some things:
The cable quality is definitely better than the 1250 Cooler Master, and/or it just wasn't mangled when it arrived because unlike CM they didn't just...
Wow they crammed a bunch of QLC chips into one box! Amazing! And it's only $6400! </monotone>
I have 4+2x3TB NVME drives in my current PC. I think I'll wait until a 16TB drive comes out for a reasonable price before bothering. Generally more...
Peering agreements and stuff like that can also make it kind of difficult to enter. The largest companies might own many routes, though not sure is it's as big of an issue today. They can probably come up with all kinds of BS reasons, too, like...
For what it's worth, Newegg issued my refund before it even got to the depot, so it seems they honor their return policy well enough these days?
I think that makes it even further from me lol.
Well at least according to the sources on the PSU Cultists list, every site that has rated it says it stays well within expected and good parameters for its platinum rating and the load draws on each rail:
Straight Power 12...
I don't know of a game where crits aren't important these days. Maybe Nikke lol.
Yeah right now I just feel like these skills are a lot more boring. Maybe I'm built wrong, but I'm not really having a blast at any point. It's just kind of...
Started playing this recently with a friend, because it was on Game Pass. Game Pass thus far has just kept on giving, I'm pretty impressed. For $10, quite a bargain.
As far as this game itself, I'm kind of ambivalent so far. I got to about level...
