All Out for now.

There is a 2070S as well.

Currently heating my house with GPUs!

The interesting thing is some of the big players have done it right. I believe the main issue with QLC drives is that they are built to be as cheap as possible, and that means they are putting cheap as possible controllers on them. And those controllers are where the weakness is. The QLC isn't...

I've run one in my daily driver as the system drive for over a year, and it's been absolutely fine.

You realize you are comparing your system drive to drives that are not system drives, right? Just the crap that Windows does in the background can massively affect CrystalDiskMark results. That's why all tests should be run on a non-system drive.

I have a couple of those too. I also have a couple of their SSDs, true OCZ SSDs from before they were bought out by Toshiba.

Anyone remember OCZ? They had some neat products back in the day. The Microcenter closest to me still has some of their coolers in stock. The list Pentium 4 in their compatibility list, and only go up to socket 1366. I wonder how long they've been sitting on the shelf.

I put all your names in a randomizer and W1ck3d came out on top. I'll PM you the key.

Why? Just delete the account on the computer that is using the M$ account entirely. There is no requirement that it be on the computer. I'll believe it when I see it. I just fresh installed 22H2 Pro and the domain join option was still there with no requirement to use a M$ account. And I...

This seems to only be a problem with Windows 11 Home edition, the option to install with a local account still works without issue in Windows 11 Pro. Though, even with Home Edition, I just log in with the Microsoft account I created just for this purpose, then create a local account after and...

PC, it's a Steam Key. Thanks for asking, I'll add that info to the main post.

Someone gifted me this key but I already own the game, so I'm passing it on. Just post if you want it. If multiple people post that they want it, I'll pick someone random to give it to. Note: This key was bought in the US, so I put US in the title only because I don't know for sure if it will...
