The other day I upgraded my OptiPlex 7040 Micro from an i5 6500 with a single 8GB stick of RAM to an i7 6700 with 32GB of dual-channel RAM, and boy what a difference the CPU made. I did it in two stages: the RAM first, followed by the CPU once that got delivered. I expected there to be a somewhat noticeable difference going to dual-channel because of just how unusually slow it was, but no. Barely any difference. The 6700 on the other hand transformed it from being actually fairly sluggish to adequately competent, even though it has to stick to the same obnoxious ass ~35w power limit.

Jeez, the starter toner in my printer is a joke. 190 pages and it's at like 40% remaining (for context, proper TN730, 760, and 770 carts are rated for up to 1200, 3000, and 4500 pages respectively).

So I just got an MP600 PRO LPX and I'm very surprised that I haven't had any stability issues. My Z690I Aorus Ultra DDR4 is one of the boards which has a hardware-level issue with Gen4 devices (which this SSD is), and for shits n gigs I left it in Gen4 mode to see if anything would happen... Nothing yet.
