  1. Yeah maybe. Dunno what the situation is like in canada regarding appliances. You shouldn't come to Germany. From what I've heard a lot of people spend an average of ~6000€+ on their kitchen. I would like to know what people put in their kitchens lol!
  2. Yeah you're right. That's a whole other topic. I actually just discussed this with a friend today. I could get an oven that looks nice and from which I know it has got good reviews and an induction stove which also has good reviews for ~500-600€. Not the most luxurious kitchen ever but WTH I'm no cook. Or I could get a combo with a meh oven and an ceramic stove for 300€ which don't really have any reviews. 300 vs 600 € kitchen. The 600€ kitchen is much more modern and better (induction ftw) but only 2.5€ more expensive per month assuming it lives 10 years. Honestly I'm leaning more towards the 500-600€ option just because there are at least user reviews about the products on the internet lol!
  3. That makes me wonder why that specific model doesn't sell well. It's so hard to find even user reviews on kitchen appliances. So annoying.
  4. I am shopping for a new oven and stove. I already settled with having to pay 200-300€ each but then saw some crazily reduced oven+stove combos. I'm talking about combos that cost 300€ with big red letters "´50% OFF!". I know that combos tend to be cheaper but (in Germany) it's hard to find an oven itself for just 250€. These crazy 50% off offers are everywhere from dishwashers to washing mashines to refridgerators. Some of these products are being sold at sale prices for months. Surely there must be a catch, why would a shop reduce "random" products by 50%?
  5. NZXT Kraken X52 and Gigabyte Aorus Gaming 7 Got the voltage @1.25v in BIOS which translates to ~1.236v under load
  6. Here's my 24/7 8700K overclock voltage jumps around from 1.23 to 1.248. Dunno right now what I set in BIOS. AVX Offset of 1 and Cache running at 4.1GHz. That's probably a fairly bad 4.7GHz voltage for an 8700K. I had XMP running for a long while but just recently ajdusted SA voltage. The board was defaulting it to high voltages which means the IMC probably took a beating. I haven't been able to get 4.8GHz stable, even at 1.3V. Probably got a bad chip. Well doesn't matter. I purchased this beauty on release day and I've been happy with it ever since.
  7. Hey, I have the Gigabyte Aorus Gaming 7 motherboard and the G.Skill TridentZ RGB RAM. I am using the Gigabyte "RGB Fusion" Software to disable some LEDs on my motherboard and the Asus Aura software to adjust the color of my G.Skill RAM. While the Gigabyte software can change the color of the G.Skill RAM it can't adjust the zones individually like the Aura and G.Skills own software can. G.Skills own software is really bad too because you can't type in color codes and stuff. It's just really bad software. That's why I'm using the Asus Aura software. It is not capable of adjusting each RAM stick individually like the G.Skill software can but it can at least change the individual lighting zones on the RAM. Here's my problem: Asus software autostarts on bootup and changes the RAM color to what I want it to be, then after that the slow RGB Fusion software starts and changes motherboard color + overrides the RAM color. Now I have to open the asus software, change to another effect, save, then switch back to the effect I want and save again. EACH TIME I start the computer. This is so ridiculously annoying. I just want to tell the Gigabyte software to ignore the G.Skill RAM. I do not want it to interface with it in any way. <rant> Offtopic: This whole having to use several different softwares is starting to annoy me tbh. I'm already using Corsair LL fans, a corsair keyboard and a corsair mouse so I am probably just going to bite the bullet and switch to Corsair Vengeance Pro RGB RAM in the future. All this bad RGB LED Software is just fkn annoying. Why do companies release a product with crappy software like that that probably was thrown together in a day or two. I am now using Corsair iCue, Asus Aura Sync, EVGA Precision X (that's fine. I use it for OCing and changing GPU LED color), NZXT CAM and Gigabyte RGB Fusion. SO ANNOYING. EDIT: Oh WTF Asus software is using 4% CPU right now. WTF who programmed this? </rant>
  8. Those websites are just meant as a joke. There is no malicious intend behind them, just something to mess around a bit with people that don't know how computers work and/or keep asking 'how do I download more RAM?"
  9. I installed Windows on one of my HDDs now. Running without any issues so far. I'm gonna keep an eye on it, If everything's fine until the beginning of next month I'm going to buy an 850 EVO and RMA the OCZ SSD.
  10. According to my logic there should be no way for the graphics card to be able to distinguish between two independent cables vs 1 daisy chained one.
  11. I was talking about the overall look. Not the material. I think I'm going to go for the low profile adapter I posted above though.
  12. Above are screencaps from OCZs SSD utility. Yeah but I don't really have time for that right now. Especially since I would have to reinstall Windows afterwards Edit: A game that I always play (FFXIV) and always put on the SSD now crashes when I start the launcher. Tried copying it to the HDD but it still crashes... All games on Steam (which is on my SSHD) work perfectly fine.
  13. I have no spare HDD I could install Windows on. Are there any ways to check if the SSD is dying? Search times aren't slow I think. The SSD is as fast as it always has been. I know from past experiences that dying HDDs would result in ridiculous slow speeds like windows taking 5+ minutes to start and such. Windows still starts really fast. Takes only a couple of seconds for me to get into Windows. Gonna download OCZs SSD utility and see what it has to say. Update. Pressing ctrl+r now crashes the explorer. Edit: Okay ctrl+r works again. WTF
