You dropped this, King! Thanks of course to the entire Team behind FoldingMonth! I had a blast and so did my 7900XT and 2060KO with a combined 190m+ points. I will still continue on full throttle until Christmas to help beat Curecoin

A password manager is definitely the better option. If you don't trust it fully, you can try "Peppering" (I think it's called). That basically means you just store your random 30 character password in the manager but before logging in you always add a personalized phrase (can be the same for all passwords basically, just don't write it down ever) at the end. So basically: %!Rj£j%3qTL01KR9bxGuhPINEAPPLEPIZZA Edit: a Passwordmanager also saves you from phishing attacks. When the website is called "facebcck.com" you might overread it, but a password manager won't.

Do you mind me asking what the issue is with a single PC?

What's the issue with your onboard soundcard?

Guuuuuuys (and girls), Can we not just keep this pace until Christmas so we beat Curecoin for Rank #3? What do ya think? Who is with me?

Some routers have a "Eco mode" that throttles the 1gbit port to 100mb like it is the year 2000. Make sure all ports are actually running at gigabit.

Multiple things could be at play here. Faulty GPU Faulty Ram (config with 8+4 is a little weird too) Driver issues Faulty PSU Overheating So I'd try to narrow it down as much as possible. Starting with PSU, GPU and Overheating probably. Try running a different but demanding game and see if you run into similar issues.

Does anyone know what's up with the Project 19600? It runs extremely efficient on my 2060KO but doesn't max it out. Usually with other projects I get like 1.6m PPD at 150w power consumption (Afterburner) With the 19600 I get only 1m PPD but at just below 60w and GPU Clock is locked at 1200mhz instead of 1700+ utilization is in the 90% range though.

My guy has his priorities completely fucked lol. Are you really going to spend over 300€ on RGB shit and then neglect your GPU choice?

I really don't know the market in Greece but are you sure you can't find any used components? Because a decent 500€ is really tough. When I check in Germany I get some much better stuff for that money. It's honestly worth it to buy piece by piece used instead. Also, what about a monitor?

Honestly this all sounds rather terrible. I would suggest getting a bigger Synology. That way you can easily import your Raid Array so you don't have to go through massive hoops trying to move the data. You stay in a known environment and if setup correctly you should be able to just extend the raid array or just build a second one. I'd look at the used market for some of them DS18XX or whatever they are called.

Yes you can use them in pull or push, that doesn't really matter in terms of cooling performance. I would however NOT replace them with 140mm fans because they wouldn't seal against the rad and therefore not create static pressure to push the air actually through the rad. Keep them in the front and let the hot air from the GPU rad be the exhaust. Not sure if you can reach all the way to the top but else let it exhaust elsewhere.

The 3060ti is your bigger problem, not the CPU (at least for gaming). So I'd say get a new GPU first.

Ultrawide is fine.

interesting, so the Standard StormX has 6pin and the StromX OC has 8pin. means @ranrar has to be really carefull chosing a card.

Not so easy to find a PSU made for proprietary HP motherboards.... i'd suggest you go with the lowest power 6pin GPU you can find, but that's probably already your 1650. Where do you find that with a 6pin? I can only find 8pin 3050s or 7600s.

your router probably only has 1gbit ports anyways, so it was always running at 1gbit.

Idle temps don't matter. What are your FULL Load temps? (for example after 10 minutes of Cinebench etc)

How Set are you in going all out new instead of upgrading your current PC? Because basing that upgrade thought on the beta of a game sounds a little... Rushed... For 1440p60 you can get away much cheaper or with just upgrades, if you tell us the specs of your current machine.
