It's a terrible deal even at 25k unless you are a serious risk taker. Fisker is bankrupt, so there will be no parts availability. That will make insurance prohibitively expensive, if it's even insurable. Even if it's insurable now, it might not be in a year, making it illegal to drive. And no...
If the old RAM is CL 16 and new RAM CL 18 is it still worth it to copy over the timings? I'm capable enough to copy timings, but not capable enough to know if it's worthwhile, lol.
Ok, thanks to both of you for the help. Just to clarify, the ram I have right now is ADATA 3000. It's not purchasable anymore, so I'd have to mix with ADATA 3200. Or I could just buy whatever and throw it together. Sounds like just getting the 32 is the best idea. My time is valuable to me, so I...
My memory usage is consistently over 80%, and I'm getting little lags that are annoying. I have a ton of tabs open at all times, but that's how I roll and I'm not going to change. I have 16gb of ADATA DDR4 3000 in my rig currently. Should I add 2X8 GB (which would be enough), or buy 2X16GB and...
I have a gen 3 mobo. Will this be pretty speedy for a gen 3? I'd be using it for my OS and gaming. I have an old 500 gb Adata NVME that works just fine but I keep having to uninstall games to install new ones as I'm out of space. I'm willing to pay more for a speedier gen 3 but I don't know if...
I have a Fantom external 1 TB HD that very well might be 15 years old. It's not fast, but it keeps on ticking. Just an anecdote, but Fantom makes decent drives.
Google Fi is running a great promo with phone sales and upgraded trade in values. Deals for new and existing members. You can tinker with the site, but here is one example. Samsung S22 is on sale for $299. Trade in for a cracked screen S21 is about 420, though some people on SlickDeals report...
For the Pixel 6a deal, I bought a used 3a ($100) off Swappa and traded it in for 300 credit. It was in good shape, though I never actually used it - just made sure it powered on and factory reset. Google gave me the whole 300 w/in a couple days of receipt. I don't think they're messing around...
PSA for trade-ins -- make sure you buy insurance. Shipping right now is a mess. I got a 6a with a Pixel 3 trade in. The first 6a Google sent got lost in Memphis FedEx. Took two weeks for Google to admit it and resend (they kept telling me to talk to FedEx - yeah right). Then the 3 I sent back...
Just tried to set up my speakers set and the line out doesn't work. No sound at all. The Bluetooth connection sucks --- the sound is all garbled. Something's messed up in the control board, I think, and I'm gonna have to exchange. I'm not going to fart around with Klipsch support. Hopefully the...
The BT is unsecured, which means other people can access it and play through your speakers, at least in theory. I have no worries about this, given my neighbors, and I couldn't resist at this price. I currently have a Promedia 2.1 with a blown woofer (lasted a long, long time, though) and I've...
I got it last time the refurbs were out and I've had no trouble with mine. It's great. There are a few issues with the software not autoloading at startup and sometimes disconnecting, but there is a fix out there, I just haven't bothered to work on it.
Noob question, but are these worth getting for listening to Spotify? I have a decent pair of cans (Sennheiser 580s) but am not sure whether streamed music would benefit from a dedicated sound card or not. I also play games like BFV, but don't need a soundcard for that. Mobo is in sig.
As I've posted elsewhere, and others have confirmed, Madison Seating is super sketchy. Just google it. Tons of folks have had bad experiences, including people on here. Sure you might get a good chair, but if you don't, it will be a huge hassle to return, given their crappy CS. If you go that...
I agree with this for the most part. *But* if you're going to drop 1k on a chair, it's crucial to find one that works for your individual body. Yes, an Aeron will be far better for everyone than an Office Depot piece of junk. However, for 1k or $500 or whatever, there are going to be better and...
Logitech is no longer making Harmony remotes, so if you want one, you need to get one soon. They are selling through existing stock and then that's it. They say they'll keep adding device support, so it's worth buying if you into that sort of thing.
Actually, never buy used chairs from anywhere in Elizabethtown NJ. There are a bunch of used furniture operators there that have equally bad reviews. I assume they are all the same company, but who knows.
I need some more storage for photo backups, disk images, etc. This is personal stuff and not really mission critical for anything. I have an NVME for boot, Windows, etc. and an SSD for games.
Still, I like to find the best bang for my buck.
I've found a number of used WD Gold 6TB internal...
I use E because my F key has a little tab on it that lets me get my hand back into position quickly and easily after hitting a function key or grabbing a beer or whatnot.
Yeah, I do this because with the little tab on my F key it's easier to get my fingers back in proper position quickly if they get askew hitting a function key or something.
Basically every office furniture dealer on Ebay or the web that's from Elizabeth NJ is connected. And they are all really terrible. Look at BBB and their reviews. Some people get what they want, most don't. And the return policy is terrible, even if you don't get what you paid for. This is true...
