90+ Gold is not a certification. If this is written on the 'certifcation label' it's fake. What's the exact model of this Cooler Master PSU?

yes, he needs either his money or his hardware back, in both of those cases a police report, regardless of the police work, a police report is a paper trail that can and will be used when things are escalated, in the favor of OP. not having one is a detriment, regardless of the police work.

For the unselected HTML yes as CSS one I've managed to change it thanks to you.

Intel CPU detected

Thanks, to be clear it would simply be for offloading games from my ssd then moving them back to play them. I wouldn't run directly from the nas. When you say one big array you mean a 10 drive raidz2 array?

Up to now I've actively avoided any detectable copyrighted content that I didn't have explicit written permission for. It is more about any potential future risks. The two listed are only blocked in Russia. That will have zero impact to me. Having had some time to think about it, I will go "as is" with copyrighted content intact.

does blizzard have anything like this or steam

let the bank deal with that. its not OPs job he needs his money back asap

I did this the other day and am waiting on a response from my email. they are so weird though. the lady faked an automated message and directed me to an email they haven't responded to lol. thanks for the advice

I won't deny that, though usually eBay is still an option and you can usually find something that doesn't have ridiculous shipping prices. If you just want something cheap though, sometimes you can go to an electronics recycler near you and see if you can snag some hardware that's destined to be recycled. It's worth calling one up at least.

Well yep any short at the wrong place can fry something... Maybe look for what component burnt and see if it's something replaceable

Uh yeah that was part of the original post

I'm in Eastern Europe, so anything thats in the European market is available for me. Btw, so far beside SVS, Klipsch was the only brand that I've found which has inflated prices compared to the US.

those are some of the positives of living in those areas, there's no computers on any of those sites within 50km and only a couple ok deals within 100

While Thunderbolt physically uses the USB Type-C port, that doesn't mean every USB Type-C port is also a Thunderbolt port (however, any Thunderbolt port should also support USB) Your motherboard only supports USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10 Gbps) through its USB Type-C port, it is not a Thunderbolt port. That's not something a BIOS update can change/fix, since it physically lacks a Thunderbolt controller attached to the port.

Do you expect to find more laptops in future and continue implementing this?

Like with F@H you can heavily power limit them with little effect on time, I was running my 3080 at 60%PL and it only added a few seconds on average Also my CPU does 300W if I don't limit it

I'm in the US near a metropolitan area, so I rarely have to drive more than 30 minutes to get something. A lot of things I've bought were within 15 minutes of me, with only a handful of my more crazy deals being 1-2 hours away.

I have I have allied the buttons and i have resized the images

Yeah I've tried that, its barren in my area. how far do you usually drive? shipping costs are too crazy for me right now

I really don't care who makes the stuff that I use, I just care that it runs well. My last two GPUs have been from Sapphire for the simple reason that they scored well in reviews when it came to temps and noise levels and weren't too pricey. In terms of performance all of the brands were basically the same to the point of irrelevance. For motherboard I went with something that scored favorably on the forum's tier list without breaking the bank. That's all there is to it.

eBay, Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace. There are equivalent classified sites that are popular in other locations (Gumtree I know is popular in Australia and I think somewhere else), but they're generally the best ways to find used old hardware in my experience.
