    Hey, if you really live on Mercer Island then you might want to check out RE-PC in Seattle.  They got a lot of used components in bins to dig through if you want to save money.

    myspeakersaremuffled reacted to Dlog in Giving up on Ryzen   
    After picking up a Ryzen 1700 and ASUS Crosshair VI Hero back in March I'm giving up on it. The constant cold boot problems, touchy overclocking have finally done me in. Time to sell this on craigslist and move on back to Intel.
     
    I'm thinking that some of these problems still exist on the other side though. My old 4790k never gave me any greif and I feel like the grass was greener.
     
    I have one question for those of you running current generation Intel. What quirks are you finding and what boards are you using? I just want to be able to press the power button and boot into windows without having to restart a system 30 times and wipe the BIOS. A 5 Ghz OC would be stellar as well.
     
    Just a touch of everything I've been through with this thing:

    I think I need the noise isolation vs noise cancellation headphones but am not getting much help at the stores. 
     
    I can pay up to $300 CDN and would like to get something easily available in Canada.
     
    I have small ears, don't want bass. and would like to be able to shut out noise even if I'm not listening to music or white noise.

    myspeakersaremuffled reacted to Lord Nicoll in CPU art   
    I know it's kinda first world to take perfectly working CPUs and turn them into art, especially as one of the CPUs used is still kinda respected, but I decided to make another art piece, and seeing as how these are starting to not look really shitty (this one is literally held together with hot glue and cardboard) I took an Intel Pentium 4 530, an i5 750 and an i5 3570K (all delidded with their IHS under them) and put it on a card. What do you guys think of this? I'm torn between things I kinda wanted to do and a more simplistic elegant look. As far as I know all these chips still work. but the Pentium 4 went through a lot of processes to do that to it, and it also has some almost missing pads so it probably won't work.

    myspeakersaremuffled reacted to LogicalDrm in A video idea that's good   
    This would be tedious to do as single video. Better would be written format (which I used as base of reference when first building back in 2005-2008). That could link and explain in much more detail than video. Imo watching someone scrolling around some sites isn't that informative or interesting, but I might be old fashioned in that sense. I do prefer written reviews on things like GPUs and CPU coolers over videos because I can examine graphs in detail and compare systems used as base.
     
    As I wrote in another thread where this came up. Process of building hasn't changed at all from time I learned it. It has become somewhat easier with mobo cutouts and clear ways to put in thermal paste (the guide I used told to spread it with discarded credit card). So why remake all build log-style videos ever made? As for selecting parts. Thats tricky bit, and not something I would put in video either. Not in any sort of video with label "GUIDE". Reason being that anything said will be valid in single region and for very short period only. New builder will most likely follow anything with "GUIDE" in title to detail and end up with overprices or old parts. I've seen this happen with few new builders who have posted in here too. While same principle applies to OS and software setup, I think those are parts which handle time best. Even the Win8 installation guide Linus made for NCIX can be used as reference for Win10.
     
    So one enormous video is just not worth it. A shorter video linking to other videos with strong talking about being subjective when making decisions and comparing products (I can't believe I'm saying next part) as educating new builders about how to read reviews, product pages and manuals could be better if this was ever made. And as such I wouldn't let LMG to touch the subject with 100m long HDMI cable. Not after catastrophe that was last build log video.
