very nice, for 2012 (not saying its wrong but..)

Simplifying doesn't need to be complicated. Learning to create a quieter, more balanced space in your life can help immensely, and taking little steps is the best way to make it happen. Eliminating clutter, getting organized, simplifying your relationships, and learning to take the time to slow down and appreciate the little things can help to keep you sane. You can start today. https://www.wikihow.com/Simplify-Your-Life

So normally most of the time the speeds I'm getting on the pcs is about 150-180 using WiFi adapters but from time time throughout the week it dips to around 40 or so and I don't understand why because you do a reset on the routers LAN website and its fine? Is it just a bad router? It's a BT Smart Hub 2. Any questions about anything let me know and I'll try to be specific as possible. I'm trying to figure out whether it's worth buying a third party router or not and how to even set it up if BT would allow it.

Tightening timings is absolutely not guaranteed to work, what did you change exactly ? CL18 RAM won't usually work at CL16...

Totally agree, but don't know, that's why It would be fun to set up a program to calculate all that math automatically, donating rice without doing anything yourself.

I KNOW THE ISSUE I FIXED IT! its the logietch software that made it work, without the software it just doesnt work that good

yea dont ram oc blind send thaiphoon burner screenshot to identify ram ics cause thats what determines your rams capabilities after identifying the ic just look for other ppls oc results with it and copy paste timings and subtimings, itll probably just work assuming you arent dealing with high freq (>4400) and if unstable just do some minor changes, for high freq ocs theyre still useful as a reference as someone will probs do some high freq runs and post em but dont expect plug and play i mainly toy around with max freq runs and stability at high freq but ill just use this as an example of what not ocing blind can do this is 1gbit g die (m378b2873gb0) and i bought some cause i saw some ppl getting 3600+ with these and since theyre 1gb they are pretty cheap and dont need trfc >300 or in this case auto as the board only allows me to set up to 255 first time i got it i was definitely struggling to even get 3000 working even if i copy the primaries and trfc of whatever hwbot sub i was looking and was honestly starting to think that i got some garbage samples even worse than my transcend psc but after i looked around and found someone posted some secondaries i copy pasted them + abit of loosening to make sure they actually worked and no more issues pushing past 3000 and with abit of a looser version of the timings posted above (twr 12 twtp 24) + binning some xeons ive managed to hit 3400 albiet 2.3v so probably gonna have to bin some more of these or find em in heatspreader form (better pcb), highest ive done stable is 2900 on 2 sticks at 2.2v but imc limit so cant go farther stabily =( and i just realized that the ics im currently interested in (1gbit/2gbit bfr/dfr) may not even have any references for secondaries because ddr3 era and if those are just as annoying as gdie secondaries wise i am cooked im just gonna assume you do ram oc for performance so just copy paste someones 3800 oc profile maybe minor adjustments if neccesary stresstest and be done with it you can tune the tertiaries but that is something youll have to do yourself, dunno if references work here or not but afaik its different for every setup, gains will be pretty big but itll be quite the pain, i personally just tighten till no post and move on to the next few tertiaries and stress rinse and repeat, for ones that are a pain (they arent stable when set abit above the point of no post) just set them somewhat loose and be done with it

Did you maintain the load, and have your cooler fully saturated at all times? Not sure how extensive others have tested it... https://www.pugetsystems.com/labs/articles/how-ambient-temperatures-affect-your-pc-158/#:~:text=Just like at idle%2C the,C rise in ambient temperature.

This is not an issue linked to a brand, but down to a specific board and how its configured. Looking up "MSI board boot times" will not give you relevant information, just anecdotes of individuals experiences. I've seen reports of boot time issues from all the major brands boards.

Don't worry about the RAM speed. It will make almost no difference. Upgrading to 16 GB RAM (2x8) will feel really nice though.

AM5 MSI boards used to often have ridiculously long boot times. Might want to google if they have fixed it or not.

I haven't been facetious at all in this exchange. By impact, I mean holistic impact on the end-state user experience as experienced by someone using the computer to play games.

I am not so sure VPNs do tout anonymity as one of the main benefits. I think a lot of them talk about privacy but that's not the same thing as anonymity. I think the "privacy" argument is very much overplayed as well though, since that too relies on a "we pinky promise that we don't look at your traffic".

I have been telling employees to wait where possible for literally 3 months because they keep asking or need a new ipad and the options are what, a ipad 10.2 from 2021, a air 5 from 2022, or a still just as old pro that wont get approved because cost mone. and all this waiting is done for lmao a M2 chip, a chip from 2022. I dont think Apple will be introducing VR pornography any time soon

it is that way becayse as far windows is concerned, your documents are in onedrive. if you want to turn that off, you open onedrive, and change what folders it syncs in settings. once you turn that off it changes your documents path to the one without onedrive, and it moves everything that was in the onedrive documents to the non-onedrive documents.

No, they dont

Probably not even cosmetic tbh, do they have their "A" "B" "C" grades for CPUs?

Sorry, I had some stuff come up at work and in normal life. H87M-PRO - Support (asus.com) Turns out it's part of the "AI Suite 3". There are newer versions of fan control, but I couldn't find anything on backwards compatibility.

no. if anything you're fine now with a 3600. Could be better with a 5700X but you definitely won't benefit with a 5700X3D over a 5700X

Again, the design might have been created with the hydro dipping technique, which by default makes it not false advertising. Never mind that your reply wasn't about that. The strawman in question was about you thinking that I somehow demonstrated or even agreed with the assessment that a hydro dipped piece was more valuable, neither of which I did and neither of which have been demonstrated at this point.

if you want to spend 88 euros on two fans then so be it 4000D airflow doesn't really make sense when the 903 MAX is here but if you want to then it's fine

you really asking?

To be fair, it could be a pretty much exactly linear relationship, just not a 1 to 1 relationship, though youd have to do an astounding amount of testing with a lot more variables than normal at least mostly controlled to find out what the relationship (or graphically the k constant) is between the 2

that's a 7y old cpu. so psu are probably same age.. newer psu's shouldn't degrade that much but it can still do if he upgraded GPU without PSU.
