    Recent news suggest to stay away from Intel, even though also the AMD is having security flaws but smaller than intel.

    bughtoo got a reaction from Pachuca in What PSU do you use in your mining rig?   
    EVGA does also offer 10 years(at least on mine they did) but they are most of the time more expensive  
     
    if you are concerned about powerdraw i have 2x 1070 + 2x 470 8gb and they draw 600w from the wall with 4790k, 10 fans, 2 hdd, 1 ssd, 2m.2 ssd, 2 pumps mouse and keyboard (without monitors) when mining. Soooooooo, 1200w for 4 1070 is an overkill 800 would be sufficient as long as you OC them + reduce powerdraw + optimize for mining.

    bughtoo reacted to dalekphalm in How do I upgrade HDD to SSD on HP Envy X360 Convertible?   
    Just an FYI, while many companies "state" that doing such and such voids the warranty, this isn't really the case most of the time.
     
    Legally speaking, swapping out user upgradeable hardware does not void the warranty. Actually getting them to honour it is a different story though

    Since today's the day of the news embargo lift, another der8auer video appeared on YouTube, showing the German professional overclocker managed to oc the Intel i9-7980XE to over 6.1 GHz on all 18 cores, of course only possible through liquid nitrogen cooling on an ASUS Rampage 6 Apex. He and the other overclockers came together for a meet-up in Taiwan at ASUS ROG headquarters and reached some new world records, once again.

    Yes, comparison should be based on modern games in which there's a tradeoff between framerate, resolution and budget.

    bughtoo got a reaction from Technomancer__ in Which display setup is best for a recording studio?   
    Well if your B-cup is your main girl and E-Cup is your side girl that you only look on when you are bored then yes  
     
    Most people dont use both monitors the same amount, they usually have 1 main monitor that takes most of the time that they are on the PC and second monitor as a monitor to show documents, videos, etc. that you want to have open all the time but dont want to open just to read a few lines. So it makes perfect sense to have 1 main monitor with higher resultion and second monitor with lower. 

    Though if you are bothered by small thing(like me), i would not survive having 2 monitors that arent the same resolution, it would just drive me crazy (especially when they are the same size and are next to each other)

    bughtoo got a reaction from Mike Soda in Is this a good build for a new streamer?   
    that is enough, though for a streamer i would swap the 7700k for 1700x or 1800x if you can, that will provide you with much better streaming/editing. 

    Dont forget SSD and at least 16gb of ram.

    Hey Energy,
     
    Yeah that's what I thought, but just to be on the safe side, I have ordered this:

    EVGA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti SSC GAMING ACX 3.0 4GB GDDR5 Graphics Card, 768 Core, 1366MHz GPU, 1480MHz Boost
     
    Will give it a +150 on the core and +300 on memory, hope the wattage stays happy with that. Alternatively it is still fast enough even in stock form, GPU Boost 3.0 will do it's thing I'm sure.
     
    Cheers guys, much love <3 (no homo)

    generally it should be possible, if not just transfer the money from one account to the other and then pay all from one acount.
