I like the specs! ;)

Just scrolled through this entire thread. Seeing the EVGA ones made me sad.

Maybe that will work at home. But in the Business world, and Cyber Insurance world, there is a legal concept called "contributory negligence". If you do something that you know will but you in a spot that could contribute to a cyber attack, ransomware, etc they could deny your cyber insurance...

This is no different that Diesel gate with VW. Do WHATEVER you need to do to win. Even if it means doing something ridiculous like zero power limits. It's sad that Intel's last place of dominance was on the upper end desktop CPUs. Now? They have even tarnished that. If Dell Latitude's...

Just upgraded to the February driver pack for the Ryzen 13 and BIOS 3.05. So far so good. My pre-OS environment times are much shorter now. I used to see the Windows 11 "circle thingie" while booting. Now it barely shows or not at all before I'm at the log in prompt. Pretty nice!

My system is running just fine. I'm not messing with BIOS to gain support for processors that have yet to even be released to the public.

Unless the new design has 3d vcache on both CCDs I don't see how this is going to overcome the latency issues.

I've said this out loud and I'm immediately an old crotchety boomer for saying it. VR is like 3d movies. Anytime you need to put something on your face to enjoy it the appeal will diminish quickly. I'm so effing tired of people always jumping on the new fad and thinking it's going to change...

holy crap... I didn't realize you could even still buy tape decks. But Amazon is loaded with them!

If Miami with all it's sketchyness turns out to be a great location I can't fathom Orlando not getting one. Orlando is a solid town with a lot of upper middle class residential.

It's just on the circuit. The freezer is plugged into a normal outlet.

I know you were most likely joking. But I'd rather go without. I hate waiting in line for anything.

Microcenter isn't perfect but I try to give them business when I can. Having zero local retail parts available can be a pain at times. My 990 Pro and 7800x3d in my current build were sourced at MC.

Still active.

I also signed up for the free Proton. I have a vpn at home that tunnels me home. But to access content from other countries VOD services I too am thinking about expanding to the paid option.

I have DoT configured on my pfsense for all clients in my house. Web filtering DNS over TLS from cleanbrowsing specifically since I have little kids. I too really dislike DoH going direct from browsers.

FYI, I know this wasn't the direct quetion, but extenders are garbage. Never use them. Either use a single router or a mesh system if you don't want to deploy your own APs.

Did you watch the video?

The two sites I use, Cardcash and Raise have a 45 day guarantees. I usually use the card up well before then.

Done it dozens of times without issue. Now I use paypal.

Good chicken ain't worth getting shanked over.

Anything that leads to cheaper/more economical manufacture without adversely affecting performance is the future. So I would think ghiplets are most certainly in our future.

For the fattasses amongst us (me) Cardcash has Raising Canes gift cards for over 30% off. https://www.cardcash.com/buy-gift-cards/discount-raising-canes-cards/

Thank you, exact what I was looking for. I wouldn't run realtek in BSD. But knowing you have first hand experience with the 226 gives me confidence to run that on my next build.

Anyone successfully running pfsense with 2.5gbps? I don't think I've found a post yes with details on how they got it running.

I thought I was into sound cards back in the day ;)

That's awesome but I don't have the 16. I'd love a version of that just for the modules. 4 or 6 if you have the cycles to do it.

Anyone got an b550 mATX board they don't need?

Bumpola

I have a 990 so this isn't a dig at Samsung. But aren't they very similar in performance? If someone asked me I would just tell them to get whichever is cheaper.

yeah I bought a 990 Pro 4tB for 279 at Microcenter. I thought that was a great price.

You got the big boy... Let us know how you are with it in a few months please.

The GFCI that feeds my deep freezer likes to trip. I'd like to set up a monitor that texts me when it happens. I see tons of them on Amazon, but does anyone have personal experience with one that they know to be reliable? If so let me know, thanks.

One of the largest CSGO tournaments in the world just stated they are going exclusively 7800x3D for the next tournament. ;)

I have two TLSG108PE PoE managed switches local in Dallas area $30 each. that I'm willing to trade for a excellent shape b550 mATX board. I need one with four dimm slots. I have perfect heat.

I just got the new Artic Freezer 36 for the intro price for my 7800x3D. It came at $30.83 shipped on Amazon. For that price? It's awesome.

Yep, that's why I chose it. These days my rig is 95% games, occationally I'll virtualize something to play with. But that's it.

Hardware unboxed just released a video comparing the 14900ks vs the 7800x3d in games. All the reviews, not just theirs, *IF* we're talking about gaming, if we want to be really conservative they trade blows. However the 7800x3d does it at half the cost, and half the power consumption. I'm not...

Been a few months now with the Framework 13 Ryzen version. I honestly couldn't be happier. Fit and finish is top notch. It does everything I need it to outside of gaming. But I have a dedicated rig for that. This is the ideal laptop for someone who wants a portable high quality PC laptop...

I have 2 x TLSG108PE PoE managed switches for sale locally in the Dallas area unless you want to pay for shipping. $30 each. I switched them out when I went 2.5/10gbps.
