Yeah, I did get a streal, and sold my old i5-2100 r9 280 pc for $200. I think your $450 price is pretty fair. $50 is not.

I actually bought the exact computer you are selling for $150, with i5-6500 and rx480. Motherboard needed to replaced, but $100 later and I got that computer for $250

Yeah, that doesn't matter. Audio doesn't need thje bandwitdth of 3.0

The gold is there because gold is soft, and insures a better fit. Or just to look premium. Either way it doesn't matter, that part doesn't cost that much. More expensive than the really cheap toslink cables definitely can help, with better fibers.

As I said over on sbaf, your best option is to just get a USB c cable. Any changes you make to the port or adapters and stuff could negate any benefits you get from the fancy cable.

I just set up my third monitor, and it flashes green. Displays what it should, but keeps going green for a second, then back to normal. It happens on whatever monitor is on HDMI. The other 2 are on displayport. They are HP e243m monitors. GPU is RX480. How do I fix this? Should I just buy a displayport cable for it?

Yeah, I suppose, plus I might have to worry about the hospital bills as well if some one hits me at more than 5mph. Very small with no safety features other than a seatbelt.

Honda beat is a cool tiny JDM car, but Miata is probably cheaper and easier to fix.

Like, how cool is this... pretty damn cool https://www.duncanimports.com/used/Mitsubishi/1991-Mitsubishi-Minica-1713607b0a0e08bc4ec80508e4b7c933.htm

That is my dilemma. Fun car will cost money and such, but... fun...

I need some advice. I have a 2012 Impreza hatchback, very practical, but boring. Do I: Save money for a while and buy an additional "fun" car, like a miata, or maybe something even more interesting like a honda beat Or Buy a nice android auto head unit for my current car, bigger ssd for my computer, and a few other random things I am torn between wanting a fun car, and wanting to buy other things...

Trying to find original woofers, for best quality. I should be able to get a pair on ebay for around $200 if I am lucky.

Yeah, should get the crossovers out anyway to clean everything, doesn't smell to good with years of mold and dead mouse and mouse shit. Need to get original woofers too, IDK why someone kept all original paperwork from 1971, but put cheap radioshack woofers in it. I do have the diagrams, I bought them. it looks very hard to make, so many parts.

Me too. Such a classic mid century design, some day I want one in my living room. But they are rare and expensive, and you can get better sounding speakers for less.

Yeah, probably would be a good idea to check out the crossover, replace the caps. Didn't bother doing that on my Dahlquist DQ-10 I sold, but that's because there were like 10 caps per speaker. This one looks simpler. Internal wiring replacement, probably a good idea, the current stuff is very stiff.

Should be pretty easy to make a new grill with a frame and speaker cloth. Just cant get the cool circles. The diffuser plate thing for the woofers though, that would be harder... There is supposed to be these diffuser plates over the woofers and the mids, I only have the ones for the mids Hard to reproduce the curve specifically for the woofer

and minus the two dead mice inside.

I purchased these speakers a while ago on craigslist, and it was probably a mistake, especially for $250. Regardless, I am now restoring them. As I purchased them, the grills are falling apart, the original 10" jbl woofers have been replaced by shitty radioshack woofers, the 10" woofer diffuser plates are missing, one of the bases is a bit messed up, one tweeter has a hole in it, and one binding post is broken. Tweeter with hole, I have removed other drivers to clean speaker Nice vintage JBL badging on tweeter Nice vintage jbl badging on midrange Cool vintage jbl badging on back of speakers Also came with all original paperwork from 1971, including jbl product pricing guide. These cost a whopping 288$ each in 1971. The legendary paragon cost a whopping $2500 though, or about $16000 now. Fun fact, the designer of the Paragon, Arnold Wolf, also designed the exclamation mark logo of JBL as seen throughout the 60's, 70's, and 80's, and is only slightly changed now. My progress on these so far: Cleaned out inside. Removed all fiberglass, and 2 dead mice. I just ordered a new (used) tweeter for the one for $50. So already $300 in. To do list: Find 2 JBL LE10A woofers, they come up on ebay now and again. I hope to score a pair for under $200. Rebuild grills using a frame and speaker cloth. I like the cool retro circles on the current one, but pretty hard to reproduced. Its made of a weird mesh plastic covered in fuzzy material, but has become brittle with age.
