    BootyDustBandit got a reaction from aezakmi in Am I overthinking memory timings?   
    been there, fx was a nightmare back before it melted a hole in my motherboard and lit my desk on fire. After that I did the smart thing and got an i7 4790k used from the facebook marketplace. (sadly I have sold off that machine to a kid i know for a fact plays Fortnite on it, but at least its still gaming)
    (edit: im an idiot it was a i7 4930k)

    productivity you say? well why should i care about productivity when i can have RGB lighting?

    jokes aside, what benefits are you talking about specifically? I know in things like 3d rendering (which I do a lot of) it makes a difference but never had time to test exactly how much. Also I am just expanding my knowledge of PC hardware so I am, relatively speaking, unexperienced and am just starting to actually do research on these sort of specific things that it seems most people don't really care about.

    BootyDustBandit got a reaction from kirashi in OnePlus 6T, OnePlus 5T, Mi A1 found among smartphones emitting high amount of radiation   
    so? the radiation is still there and still being emitted from the phone, doesn't matter where it come from just that it's there and it is at the manufacturers fault.
    exactly, i call people on my laptop of my desktop on discord most of the time and when i do call on my phone its video calls and not by my ear XD

    BootyDustBandit got a reaction from noobbuilder in GPU recommendation for build   
    he isn't using a 4k panel, he is using a 1080p monitor a 144 hz, the vega 56/64 will do just fine (vega 56 is on par with a gtx 1070 Ti and is like half the price)

    BootyDustBandit reacted to thisforumsucksassdeletemya in what metal does this mbd watercooling block use?   
    I like that you can't find the info online then you come here and give condescending, smug responses to people who are trying to help you but can't give you a 100% answer because, as you no doubt learned yourself, the info isn't online.

    I have lots of old parts as well, I think i'll try doing this too. Though my state is not very tech savvy, I cant even find a radeon 200 series around here, even radeon HD cards are hard to find.

    BootyDustBandit reacted to Jurrunio in R3 2200G and R3 1200, same price but which is the better performer?   
    2200G has higher stock clocks and 2nd gen Ryzen memory controller microcode so in theory better memory OC.

    The 2200g performs better: https://cpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/AMD-Ryzen-3-2200G-vs-AMD-Ryzen-3-1200/m441832vs3931
    If the motherboards cost more for the 2200g, you're no longer comparing options that are the same price.

    even if it would save some money, I am not the best at fixing those kinds of things and if the fans were to fail again while it was in use that could end up killing the card entirely.

    BootyDustBandit got a reaction from Aryeh Sheinson in pairing a 1070Ti with a Ryzen 7 2700x   
    so i always use a bottleneck calculator to make sure that there was nothing wrong with the GPU and CPU I set up.
    I didn't feel a need to since these are both pretty decent pieces of hardware but whe I did it clains the GPU is too weak for the CPU and will produce a 10% bottleneck.
    How and why? will an underpowered GPU really bottleneck the system?

    BootyDustBandit reacted to mariushm in Got and rx 560 and noticed something strange.   
    I don't see anything...
     
    Any stuff that has TP near it means it's a TEST POINT,  it's a location where some signal is being brought to be read by an automated testing machine, to make sure the chips and parts on the board were placed properly and are working individually, basically make sure most parts on card are functioning properly before card is tested physically over the course of a few hours (vibration testing, heat testing, memory testing etc)
     
    If you mean those things that look like wires where it says TP51 and TP52 my guess is that they're simply visual aids , to help workers quickly test manually when/if the automated machine throws some warning.
