    Not sure about that smart outlets specifically, but I use Home Assistant as my hub, and it works great. Integrates with all my lights, and I know it works with a bunch of different smart outlets. It should say somewhere on the site.

    Hey, my 8700k just came in and I was planning on buying the Formula when it releases. Can I use the NZXT Kraken X62 with it? I have the budget for a custom loop, but I don't want to do that because it looks very intimidating, and I'm scared of leaking. Thanks!

    You won't get a good price for this, if anything

    If you want to overclock, I'd recommend sending it into siliconlottery for $40 and they'll delid for you as well as give you a 1yr warranty.

    is your 8700k delidded?

    Ultrawide

    ProtectNull posted a topic in Displays

    Hey! I'm looking for an ultrawide 3440 x 1440 display. Preferably 34 inches. My budget is $500. Also, if it means anything I am using a mac. Thanks!

    Hello! I am trying to decide which monitors to get for programming. I am going to be using a late 2013 maxed out macbook pro. I will be doing mainly iOS, Android, and Web development. I have a $500, I can probably go up a bit more though. One note, I do not want 3 monitors. Either 2 or one. Thanks!

    If you know how to overclock(or are willing to learn) then I would highly recommend the 6600k. If not then just get a 6500 and invest the rest into other components such as the GPU.

    How do you know that your crashes have to do with your ram?

    Best VPN?

    ProtectNull replied to BuckGup's topic in Networking

    I have been using a smaller VPN called DollarVPN. Here's a link to it: https://dollarvpn.net/ It has worked great so far and I like supporting smaller companies. It's cheap and it also has no logs as well as port forwarding! Good luck finding a VPN!

    Pretty bad but it does the job...

    First off, I would run a Malwarebytes scan just to make sure you aren't ratted. Or, if you have some knowledge in this department try checking task manager for suspicous background tasks. Keep in mind, these laptops are extremely slow and Chrome is very CPU and ram intensive. It could just be overloaded. Good luck!
