rain in july

agreed, but tbh the people that would buy these type of machines likely aren't gonna use anything other than win 10/11

If I develop a website and I handle hosting for the client do you think the customer would expect a CMS? I know this is something that should be asked and agreed on before hand but I'm just wondering if its still a thing where the client leaves everything to me or do most people expect a CMS to do it themselves. So, should I just use something like wordpress so clients can update what ever they want whenever, or should I continue building sites myself but I handle all updates to the site with a fee? I feel like once you have a certain amount of customers this way would start to get really annoying. I'm not sure just wondering if anyone has any ideas. (im just starting freelancing so any tips would be helpful)

Pretty much what the title says, how did you get started, what was your first job? any tips on how to get your first client, I would love to know!

I bought it back in 2020 lol it was for another build but I ended up not using it...

I have my old corsair case alongside new 16gb ddr4 corsair ram, have a couple of m.2 and satas ssd's and a 750w PSU I got for a previous build that I didn't end up using. So really just looking for GPU CPU and a board

Thanks for the reply! I'm going to keep this in mind that looks like it should work and it's in budget

my 3070 laptop died recently, looking for a desktop this time around, any suggestions? Mostly used for sim gaming/web development so it doesn't need to have the best specs in the world I think i'd be looking for something with at least a 3070 or better. You don't need to include a case in the price or ram and psu and storage. just cpu mobo gpu Used parts are fine or new I'm not bothered. Thanks. (depending on what you suggest, please suggest AIO or Air cooler thanks)

Turns out its a dead GPU...nice

Extremely unlikely, I'm on my journey to become fully self-employed/freelance web dev. You have to speak to people it's just how it is. Don't get me wrong I know how you feel, I have anxiety/adhd. It's hard, nobody is saying its easy.

Originally posted to PCSPECIALIST forum as its where I purchased this from, copy and pasted it here as I have not received a response on their forums. Need urgent help, I feel like pulling my hair out trying to solve this issue. Long story short, control center has had this bug since I have owned this laptop. I really enjoy the Vibrant mode setting. One day no matter what i'd do it defaulted back to the normal setting and no matter how many times id click on vibrant or any other setting it would not work. I couldn't figure out why ( still can not figure out why it does that to this day, even contacted pcspecialist they recommended I should uninstall/install it again. That's what I done and it was fine for about a year, like 2 months ago the same issue happened, I hadn't gotten around to uninstalling/installing again until yesterday I had some spare time I was like I may as well get this over and done with and thats where the issue arose. Here is a short timeline of events Uninstalled control center laptop display went black plugged into an external monitor and it worked, laptop display was no longer recognized in windows I power cycled a good few times until I could get a picture on the external monitor. tried to reinstall control center and it bricked the computer, but nothing. eventually it turned on but no picture on both laptop and external monitor, tried a tv and 2 monitors, HDMI, display port no luck i powered on/off about 10 times I even restored windows to a time before I had uninstalled control center, again nothing. Windows was even more broken and no luck with the display eventually, i end up reinstalling windows 11, i get through installation and the exact same issue happens. when i install control center I got no picture + no other display recognized I went and bought a new ssd with another fresh install of win 11 and during set up the exact same issue I can't even get a picture to finish installing win 11 I have only been able to get the occasional picture from external display, laptop display not working at all. for at least the last 8 months I have not been able to play really any games as everything would stutter really badly/rubber band even in single player games which makes me think this could be a dead gpu. I believe I am out of warranty, I am more than happy to pay for pcspecialist to repair this issue if they can. I have no idea if this is a software issue from control center that's caused this, or if it's a dead gpu or a dead laptop display. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this?

hey sorry for the late reply, it's a laptop that I use, do you think that could be the problem? I could try plug it into a pc and see what happens.

I know this is an old thread but I thought i'd give it an update, last month I ended up going for these! https://www.ukkeycaps.co.uk/product/dcs-classic-1980-s-blank-keyset-iso-ansi They look amazing

Can't get the rear USB ports to work - Iv'e connected it to my PC with an USB 3.0 A to B cable, but no luck, when I plug something into the monitor, nothing happens. Please help! Could it be a faulty monitor or am I just stupid lol? Thanks. edit: (I should add, I can't remember if the box had a cable inside it for this, as I can't find any cables so i had to buy one, i got an amazon basics one, could it just be that i'll need to buy a new cable? - https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00NH144GK/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 )

I have a poker 3 keyboard and im looking for new key caps, any ideas where to get any? I know about wasdkeyboards.com but im wondering are there any other sites? I'm from the UK so preferably something UK based.

a damp cloth is always a safe option! I wouldn't put any soap on it, just good ol fashioned water.

Whats the best 1440p 144hz ultrawide?

What monitor should I get, I want a 4k 240hz monitor, preferably under £500

question is in the title!

thanks! I'll keep this in mind.

Would a Noctua NH-U12A cool an i7 10700k? or would I be better of getting a liquid cooler.

hey, can't figure out what panel connector goes where can someone please help me? Asus b450m plus gaming motherboard. can anyone give me a diagram please.

I'm looking for a place that has good quality custom keycaps (preferably in the uk) any suggestions? I'm currently looking on wasdkeyboards but the pricing is in dollars.
