Ah no no, his memory is completely fine lol. I guess he feels some sort of comfort offloading his tech-work to me knowing i'd do a better job than him.

My grandpa always seems to have a doubt on his phone and wants me to help him. I am very happy to help him with it. But it has turned into a point where he expects me to do all the work on his phone when I'm around him, it gets annoying fast. What's more annoying? He always asks me the same doubts he had earlier and pretends like he does not know how things work but does the same things when I'm not around him. I don't get the psychology behind it???

Windows 11 technically has changes made to the CPU Scheduler. Maybe that's why there's variations between the OSes.

I think you'd be glad to know Chrome is buggy and freezes regularly on my phone too(Nokia 6.1 Plus). I remember reading somewhere it's due to the way Google decided to split Chrome and Android's webview across the OS.

Agreed but there are others too. WD, Corsair and such. Except Samsung and WD(for their controller) most of the other brands use a combination of parts such as the nand-flash and the controller from various third parties.

I'd pick WD Blue or the Crucial MX500. Others don't have DRAM cache which is quite important for performance and reliability.

Firefox with uBlock Origin is less taxing on your battery than Chrome. Although Firefox has been glitchy and slow and laggy in my experience.

Chrome crashing seems to be a problem with Android 10 itself, I have a problem with it crashing too. Have to turn off and on again. Edit - On a Nokia 6.1 Plus with Android 10.

It's just SSD's without dram cache from OEs like Adata and Kingston. There's the SX6000 Pro from Adata/XPG but it's not as highly rated as the MP510 or the 860 Evo. Okay. Thanks. Lemme look at them, Although Amazon India is not my first choice for PC Hardware, They often over-priced and sometimes ship DOA/Damaged goods. I checked YouTube for some speed comparisons and yeah SATA and NVMe are pretty much the same. It's just that I'm worried that SATA would go obsolete in a few years. I guess that will never happen?

Im sourcing parts for a new build and I'm confused between getting a NVMe and a SATA ssd drive for my OS, Web browser and some apps and prolly some games(Games will be transferred to my HDD later on) It's a PC that's going to be used for moderate gaming and Just the regular student stuff, Word processing, Mild photo editing and the like. NVMe drive - Corsair MP510 240GB - ₹4,800($67) SATA drive - Samsung 860 Evo M.2 240GB - ₹4,100($57) Although I'm aware of Crucial MX500 it's tough to get my hands on one. The only other decent SSDs are the ones above. My main priority is having a DRAM cache and many of the budget ssd's do not have one. Having a m.2 form factor is highly preferred but I ready to go for a 2.5" drive too. Also, I probably shouldn't be worried about this but will SATA be outdated in the future and probably getting a NVMe is a safer bet? Also, Is having HMB better/substitute for not having a dram-cache?

I got a boner looking at your build. Wow.

Thanks. Some updates are like 6 MB or so that should take even less time. I'd just go with plugging the USB directly to the Mobos usb port to be safe? That's informative. Thanks!

Hey all, I'm gonna a build a PC real soon for the first time and I was researching about the motherboards and the like. I got to a point where I was getting educated on BIOS updates and it eventually led me to some posts of people have their bios updates get stuck at the update install screen. What is the likelihood of getting in such a situation and how long does it take to update bios on a modern machine?

I'm buying off of a brick and mortar store so I can get the Mobo w/ updated bios I'll look into B450Max series too though. Thanks! I've seen YouTube videos of this card paired with a 2500/3600/9100F/9400F and it seems to have enough grunt for my gaming needs. What card do you suggest though?

Heyo, Im a moderate gamer and I will be using my PC for daily use cases, For studies, Media and browsing. I will not be OCing for now, Maybe after 2-3 years. My budget is ₹60,000 including peripherals. I've put up a list for myself, But I'm a first time builder and so I'd like the opinion of you all. Ryzen 5 3500 ASRock B450M Pro4-F Corsair Vengeance LPX 8GB DDR4 3000 8x1, Will be adding another 8Gig later Gigabyte Radeon RX570 Gaming 4G Crucial MX500 Corsair CX550W Corsair Carbide Spec 05 Keyboard Mouse combo for 3K AOC 22 Series 21.5" Monitor TIA

I tried searching for a similar thread but couldn't find one. What are all the news sources that the TechLinked team refers to for updates? From the screengrabs I could find - I am searching up on more sources to get my fix of news and would love to see new links! TIA

Probably some app gone rogue in the background.

Pixel experience always was heavy on my phone too, It has since been axed from development for our phone.

Get a new phone, Tell your mom to not keep maintaining the charge at 100 % always and only plug the phone in when the battery is below 20%. Or as others suggested get a thicc phone with big battery ?

There is no notable difference when the screen DPI is changed.

I have a phone with a glass back(Gorilla Glass 3). I did use a case for some time and I eventually switched over to a Skin. I tend to be careful with my phones and the skin helps with gripping the phone so...

Images don't play. Either the phone is not able to decode the codecs or the App is at fault. Clear the data and cache data of the phone Try installing a beta version of Instagram from Apk Mirror

I actually don't mind having some bezels on the phone tbqh. I'll be fine with small bezels like the one on the Note 9 or the upcoming Pixel 4(Excluding the forehead, But hey I don't mind it)

After using a phone with a Notch, It does not really bother me at all. You just get used to it after some time. The only trend I'm worried about is the Motorized camera thingy, I don't like having a pop-up camera at all.

Pixel uses it own flavor of Android with some Pixel specific features. It isn't really stock. The software on Android One phones are the closest to AOSP tbh. It is very bare bones. More so than the Pixel.
