I think AMD has made a misstep. They should have launched the 5900OEM to the regular customer base. They could have marketed the OEM as an efficient Wattage CPU with almost the same performance as a 5900X out of the box at a lesser cost. I own one and it has been an effing great CPU in...

I believe that in the near future that businesses will be forced into using subscription based methods by Micro$haft. However it is not going to be that easy on the consumer end if you take into count on just how bad Windo$e 11 is overall doing. The other thing to note. People do not...

I'm a masochist. I read financials of corporations that I am interested in. So this is nice to see a visual breakdown for people to see.

And that is why I'm here at this site as I can trust the information given. This site gives out quality, honest, and real information without the people doing the happy dance that I still see in many faucets of the tech industry of today. So yea, I take the information given here seriously as...

Oh and good luck to those people applying for the job. BUT the old man will be watching you if you screw up. :peace:

This is a great mindset to have. Very Grounded. Stable income is the most important thing to have so you can invest in real... life.

Just bought a Crucial 2TB SSD SATA and a 4TB WB Black HDD for $150.00 Since my rig has the Icy Dock Setup and my have drive bays, everything is Hot Swappable. The lastest version Zorin OS is going the SSD and later Gnome Box. That's the goal, but I'm concenrtrating on producing a comic...

Agreed. As stated before the N.2 format is too damned hot and I will not put one in my rig. I'll have one externally but right now... NOPE. Becasue of the heat issues I recently purchased a Crucial 2tb SSD SATA and a 4tb ED HDD. Both for $150.00 plus T/SH.

Yeas ago I stated that the 1050ti was an amazing GPU but IMHO it was deliberately crippled by Ngreedia so it could not out perform it's product line at the time. Now as we have people from Brazil tweaking older Video cards and what do you... They are getting some very good results in...

Yea, but we all know that those who drank the Kool Aid will.

I sort of can help you there. It depends on your needs and the money you want to spend. IMHO... If you want an all around scanner then you go with one of those all-in-one printers. If you want something today to scan photo art in a professional manner than you are going to have to get one...

Heh. I'm on a RX 5700 with a 32 inch 1440p 165hz monitor. Years ago, I have posted my performance results using that combination when playing Overwatch. I'm satisfied so far with it but it all depends on what you want. IMHO 4K is for movies. 2K is the still the sweet spot and 1080p is meh...

It Slices, It Dices and it makes Julian Fries!!!

You are absolutely right about Trip Hawkings and Larry Probts. Again my hunting ground so yes I used to visit the site often. But IMHO Mr. Ricitiello was a bad... bad... man. As proven by the Unity Fiasco he tried to pull. But there is one more thing that should be known. 1 in 5 people in...

I agree with you on this. From my perspective this is another bubble as has been over hyped to a point that this will directly/indirectly keep tech components pricing high. To the point that only a few can purchase bleeding edge tech while the rest of us go with older equipment and/or lesser...
