  1. Hi All, my XPS 15 has updated to 23H2 but the new file explorer is not showing... any ideas why or how to enable it? thanks
  2. id take a look at reviews of their customer service and warranties. ASUS seem to have a sketchy past recently on things like this... so possible worth watching some reviews on the both of the companies.
  3. Change passwords NOW. if your bank details are on paypal, get a new card. reinstall windows on your PC. do not attempt to recover the isntall, you could end up far worse. just reinstall windows, change all your passwords. dont log into an account without changing its password.
  4. Agree.. just an extract from another comment of mine as I think it fits well.. as a member of this community since NCIX days and frankly since my child hood, I want to see Linus come out of this, I want to see him in more fun off the cuff content like the old days. the community loves the vloggy style content. whole room water cooling was one of the best things LTT ever produced more crazy projects like that please. its been undoubtedly a rough week for Linus Tech Tips. but no one has anything to gain from him being berated and attacked over this. yes people are mad, but there are 120 real people working with Linus that depend on him for their Mortgage, rent, food and car payments. he is responsible for 120 incomes. so I think we need to allow LTT a chance to rectify this.
  5. I mean.. I think GN had valid points originally, I think Linus' first response was emotional, and responding when emotional is always a bad idea. remember this is his life work, he has spent over 10 years passionately building this thing. its not easy to be criticised. and I think there second video, was good, honest and I hope they stick to the points made. secondly, I think Chris, and people like that, are using the situation to attract an audience, Chris' views were fairly neutral, likely because he doesn't want to completely side with one or the other and risk the outlast from the LTT audience. all im interested in is how Linus and his team fix the issues and move forward in a positive and consumer oriented way. as a member of this community since NCIX days and frankly since my child hood, I want to see Linus come out of this, I want to see him in more fun off the cuff content like the old days. the community loves the vloggy style content. whole room water cooling was one of the best things LTT ever produced more crazy projects like that please. its been undoubtedly a rough week for Linus Tech Tips. but no one has anything to gain from him being berated and attacked over this. yes people are mad, but there are 120 real people working with Linus that depend on him for their Mortgage, rent, food and car payments. he is responsible for 120 incomes. so I think we need to allow LTT a chance to rectify this. as you were..

  6. do a video ticking this box and reviewing how well amazon can fit different products
  7. For the love of god LTT… a video we need to see relating to that dell laptop you just released a video on is 1 of 2 options (or both for extra brownie points) 1. watercool the thing… 2. build the chassis with a new set of components for the ultimate sleeper, using maybe a frame work laptop chassis. Those guys are so flexible and with all the 3d printers you could definitely make it work! Not sure how the display would function but I’m sure you can make it work! You have overcome bigger challenges!! Finally… get someone to daily drive it for a week
  8. Have you played Cyberpunk? i may have taken a slight amount more enjoyment than i shoud have at the panam in the tank scene!
  9. You'd need to source unbuffered ECC memory to get traditional ecc functionality yes, with regards to those specific modules, they are server memory, so im not sure how using them with a non server board & CPU will work out, your mileage may vary, i have used ECC on a desktop platform in the past and has success.. unfortunately, its going to be one of those things where you may just have to try it, make sure the motherboard is rated for ECC & CPU and you *Should be fine. thanks
  10. i think someone has fallen in love with an eGirl ?
  11. Ok, fair enough... so DDr5 was advertised as having "On Die ECC" the On Die ECC is more relating to reliability than data retention / protection. as the memory modules increase in size the cells inside get closer together, making them more venerable to bit flips. on Die ECC is a way of protecting against that as I understand it. so it will protect against Thermal Bit Flips however once the data is moved out of memory there is no ECC in that instance. if you want traditional end to end ECC (protection during data transfer) then there is DDR5 ECC available, such as the Kingston: KSM48E40BD8KM-32HM 32gb kit. hope this helps!
  12. No, he would have to reinstall to go to a 64bit system, however the slowness of the system is likely to do with the storage, if its a 32bit system I'm gonna go out on a limb and say its a HDD? and likely an old one at that. an SSD & a clean install of windows 10 would be the best bet. & a ram upgrade if still running 2!
  13. can i ask, what's the use case for the workstation?
  14. defo would say that's a good deal!
