Another day, another weird Chinese motherboard. This time, DDR3 AND DDR4 on X99 https://www.tomshardware.com/news/ddr3-ddr4-x99-motherboard-intel,40252.html

The PSU inside Dell Studio XPS 8100 confronts to ATX standard, so all there would fit. I would choose the one with Bronze efficiency out of the three. But in reality I would go for Gold efficiency since they are more efficient and generally represents higher quality.

Use the TeamViewer build-in VPN to bypass those restrictions. Or just use a network drive.

Why not just use TeamViewer, save you time and hassle.

I am gonna let you finish, but... ...I guess I will use the method that can triple the battery life and "really works" plus "for FREE", thank you!

I used SPSS (useful tool, awful software) on Windows. But I don't remember seeing an iOS or iPadOS version (or its equivalent) of the app. So a Windows/macOS/Linux based system is a no-brainer for me.

You may consider looking for SMS bulk sending service offered by various companies/websites. Sometimes they offer automated message with variable strings. The same can be done for emails. But keep in mind that such activities, via both SMS and email, has the potential to be identified as spams and maybe blocked by mobile carriers, message app on phones and email service provider.

Microsoft only "officially" supports the use of Windows 10 on Ryzen based systems. That said, if you installed Windows 7 anyway, you need to enable CSM and other legacy support in BIOS.

You will need a KVM ("keyboard, video and mouse") switch for that. I have a KVM integrated on the monitor, it's as easy as switching input source and wait a few seconds for the devices to be recognized. But the annoying things is that the monitor only have two USB port already occupied by wireless USB keyboard/mouse dongle and wireless headset adapter, meaning there's no place to plug in extra USB devices like flash drives.

At the moment, 120 GB should be able to fit both fresh installs of Windows 10 (with page file, hibernation, etc.) and Ubuntu Linux, plus a few apps and games. But as OS may need update in the future (unless you are disable them), they will become bulky and then the disk size will become a limiting factor.

No, 7700K is incompatible with Z390 motherboard.

Plus, why not use a socketed CPU and MXM graphic card? 35W i9 9900T and 2080 in MXM form factor are a thing nowadays. Once a soldered AIO becomes obsolete, there's no way to upgrade it any way, aside from using it as a monitor. And while you are at it, why not create a Quadro variant of such thing? That would definitely blow iMac Pro out of the water!

"The COLORFUL iGame G-One All-in-One PC is expected to to have an MSRP of around $5000." No thanks. (Source)

Of course they can. That's why this thing... ...a six-output AMD Radeon R7 350, exists, if all you want is a screen matrix for digital signage or billboard. If you want gaming at such high resolution, then the real consideration is whether the card(s) is able to delivery that much graphic computation power to sustain gaming at 9600 x 1920 at 30/60 FPS.

You can swap the panel for a compatible high res or high refresh panel. https://www.laptopscreen.com/English/model/ASUS/ROG~G750JW/

These machines are quite old but still capable of doing basic professional 3D works and some light gaming. They should perform rather identically, given they have exactly same hardware specs. But it comes down to cooling performance, Dell has dual fan design while HP use single fan. The BIOS for Dell machine hasn't been updated for some time, while HP just updated their legacy devices. Other drivers are maintained quite well for both system. In terms of upgradeability, both machine has socket CPU, MXM graphic card, etc. that can be upgraded. Generally for these similarly performing old machines, availability and price are main things to consider when you want to purchase them.

They are both old workstations with the same hardware specs. So they will perform near-identically. It only comes down to which one is cheaper, if you really want to buy one.

DS218+ is a cheaper dual-bay NAS with an Intel Celeron J3355 CPU, while DS418 is a slightly more expensive quad-bay NAS with a Realtek ARM based RTD1296 CPU. A quad-bay NAS offers more flexibility for hard drive selection, however its ARM based processor and soldered onboard RAM means there's no hardware upgrade, virtualization support and may become a bottleneck when running multiple add-on packages. The dual-bay NAS has more functionality thanks to the (relatively) power X86 CPU, but its limited by its only two bays, meaning you have to run it with a very basic dual-drive RAID setup, thus nullifying its performance advantage for VM and add-on. Ideally (if budget allows), you should go for things like a DS418play. But if you have to choose between the two you've mentioned, I would go for the DS418 since it will better function as a storage device with few add-on installed. Yes if you only use it as a storage device. And if you do need to add more, DDR3 price has dropped dramatically. Not all Synology NAS are upgradable anyway.

Intel stated that quad-channel mode is enabled when "four (or a multiple of four) DIMMs are identical in capacity and speed, and are put in quad-channel slots". In this case, if you want to have 16+32 GB quad channel memory, you need to install the 4x4 kit in slot A1/B1/C1/D1 and the 4x8 kit in slot A2/B2/C2/D2 (vice versa). The different slots are usually color-coded separately so it's easy to distinguish. Keep in mind that memory compatibility differs from board to board, module to module, your mileage may vary. They should be able to operate at an overlapping rated speed by default.

Well, at least we know why MacBook 12" did not bother to include Thunderbolt 3 now.

There's no hardware whitelist locking them to HP branded motherboards.

The service manual is a reference for all user serviceable parts. If you cannot solve your problem with the said manuals, you probably should have your computer fixed by a professional.

If you are still covered by warranty and/or accidental damage, I would suggest you to have the panel replaced by them. If you have to (or want to) replace the cracked panel by yourself, you can identify the panel model (usually indicated on the back on the panel or on websites) then search the panel model on supplier site like panelook, eBay or AliExpress, etc.

This CPU does not exist. Do you mean i5-4460? If that's the case, then aging quad core could be a bottleneck in the hexa core minimum era.
