  1. It's not for you and that's okay.
  2. Black 140mm Sterrox fans?!  I'm here for it.

    Is ASUS having issues with their Z690 Maximus H…

    As much as it pains me I'll grab the CPU, decent sale on 12900k, and wait for new boards to arrive. Open box has too many unknowns...
  4. Is ASUS having issues with their Z690 Maximus Hero boards?  Went to Microcenter to buy one and they had 5 open box returns for purchase but no new boards...

      Weren't those a fire risk due to something on them exploding?

      https://www.asus.com/us/news/u5866wtjwmbj1fue/ Yep. A capacitor installed backwards. OP if you want one, double check the S/Ns. Hopefully Microcenter took that precaution and those boards are just people returning it because they didn't want to bother with checking if it was affected or not.

  5. Basically what the title says. Searching around I find a lot of coolers that have LGA 1700 kits you can order but I'd like to find something that has been redesigned to cover the entire surface.
  6. I've only used WD red/white drives for my NAS boxes. If the data isn't critical you can get away with non-NAS specific drives as well. It all comes down to your level of risk.
  7. Has anyone received their Steam Deck is now available email? 

  8. Heading in to the lab was rough today... day dreaming about Elden Ring.  If the Steam Deck actually released on time I'd be playing right now. 😅

      oh nvm, just saw your "occupation"

  9. rting is a great site for comparisons. https://www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/lg/a1-oled https://www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/samsung/au8000 https://www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/tcl/6-series-r646-2021-qled The Samsung seems like the odd man out in this section.
  10. In before all the S22 pictures flood the SOYLP thread. The green really is quite nice. Some H2 paste and a ThinkCentre. Really been into these 1 Liter PCs lately, this is my first entry into the Ryzen Pro line.
  11. The 'keep LMG running from behind the scenes' types make the best videos. I really enjoyed Clarence's approach to the upgrade.
  12. Why not look at a used Lenovo ThinkCentre mini. You can get a nice 8600 / 16GB ram / 256GB ssd for 350.
  13. I would agree. My first case was a COSMOS 1000, I miss that thing.
  14. This is interesting. It seems that your phone connects to this device and then this device converts the signal and allows you to make a 'wifi' call.
  15. Digging the new layout. 

  16. I think you're reading too far into it. The gov isn't looking to dismantle current banking system.
  17. don't put all your eggs in one basket. Even now if all your money is in one bank you're doing it wrong.
  18. Biden Bucks! A centralized federal bank would be interesting. I could see them using it to distribute welfare and other forms of aid.
