Did you play the first? I heard it was excellent but 2 was mixed at best

Willing to ship?

Because I said I would - I got 100% achievements on the damned thing, and will update my review - slightly - as a result. I'll begrudgingly give it a 6/10 once I completed it and wrapped every side quest, every boss, every THING there was to do in this ... mess. The good: 1. It's pretty. It...

I started it on my PS5 before remembering why I hated HZD on PS4 (And loved it on PC - works amazing with a mouse). I was starting to get the same feel. Lots more crafting, lots more hunting for specific ammo, etc...

Reports and some reviews trickling in from actual users that for at least games, Threadripper 7000 isn't bad - if you're playing at a real resolution and not 1080P. I'm getting tempted again.

About 6 hours, I think. I had no front-end IO going though.

sure, but I have all the 8T drives :p And rebuilding off an 8T drive is WAY faster than a 24.

Yup. Lots of thunderbolt to fast nic for macs (especially since the new mac pro is kinda a joke), but they're weird on most OSes. I've tried - and USB just doesn't cut it for large scale things. Tbolt is better, but... still buggy for some things. Yup. The important stuff goes on boxes...

Dammit, same. I also purged it. Took one last glance yesterday, and sighed - waiting on Ryzen 8k, and I'll move away from HEDT on the primary.

60T? Uh... yeah, I'm thinking a different scale. My current archive build will have 10 of those 20T drives (starting with 10 8T, will swap them out over time). :D I do weird shit. So you'd need 4 of them, and we know that's an issue on DDR5 period - so... still not there :-/ But it's...

I'm running an average of 75% used on 128G right now. :p VMs burn through it FAST if you're doing enterprise ones. The servers have 2T or 3T depending on the box. I aim for half of maximum on any workstation or consumer system.

The TB4 to QSFP adapters were not popular, buggy as shit, and best handled with an external PCIE enclosure with an actual ~card~ in it. They also get hot as shit (like hot enough to melt things), which meant that "external" device either weighed a few pounds (heat sinks) or cooked itself. Many...

It'll tell you which nodes - if you bother to hook it all back up again. And no, the AI chips would run rings around it.

Teams auto-starting and ignoring the "don't start" option is garbage through and through. It's also a shitty program regardless.

I work in the security industry. I've done my research. Have you? Security ALWAYS fails. Assume breach. Always.
