  1. I seen that post previously. For my own part I gathered the various tracking codes from wizmo and intermediate couriers and AnPost/Revenue couldn't find an ioss reference for any of them. I've only had ioss work once, from a different seller. I'd love to know if anyone in the eu has had a good experience with lttstore in that regard, it would be at least something I could go back to AnPost and Revenue with.
  2. For myself the sting comes from the added vat at checkout. IOSS isn't supposed to work for items over €150 and historically its never worked for anything I've gotten from LTT Store. (AnPost say that the ioss data isn't attached to the package) $69nice in Taxes in addition to the shipping (which I'm fine with), knowing that I'll be charged the same again + import duty when it arrives at my door is just a bit crazy. Even knowing that support will refund that tax if I provide the vat receipt after the fact.
  3. Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO You should find it for around $30 new
  4. A quick google shows this tutorial, which is pretty good. https://winaero.com/blog/how-to-move-page-file-in-windows-10-to-another-disk/
  5. Cached memory is fairly normal, its normally classed as free memory and is released whenever an active process requires memory. What disk is your pagefile on? If its not on the SSD, try moving it there and test if your microstutter continues.
  6. I'll likely continue to use Chrome. I use too many different computers & platforms to sacrifice Chrome's sync features without using another service.
  7. I just shut it down to save power. The home server and networking gear use enough as it is. As you said SSDs really make long boot times a thing of the past and Gigabit broadband makes downloading steam updates rather trivial.
  8. Well, once the CSS & JS is in your browser's cache it will make almost no conceivable difference to the end user after the first load. The slowest things on the page are external/user images which aren't optimized or compressed (which I would argue, should be done by the user before uploading). Ideally, a bunch of those files would be concatenated but the number of them makes almost no difference when using http2. The wait time on the main page load is quite slow though, averaging out at 600ms for myself. But considering I'm halfway across the world from the server it's not terrible.
  9. The Dáil would likely not have agreed to appeal this if they knew it was a losing battle from the get-go. I'm pretty sure they provided anything the EU asked for during the investigation as well. The EU Parliament have been trying to get Ireland to increase the corporate tax for ages and this could be a way to get a foothold. Ireland was made agree to use any additional revenue gains to reduce its national debt in 2016 and 2017, which essentially means if Apple pays up, the money will go straight to the EU exchequer. To be honest, I don't care who done what, as long as it doesn't affect jobs, as they're worth more to the people in the current economy.
  10. I'm not a fan of our Government here, I'd happily lock the lot of them up. That said I'm on the fence about who is in the wrong for two reasons. Ireland was made agree to use any additional revenue gains to reduce its national debt in 2016 and 2017, which essentially means if Apple pays up, the money will go straight to the EU exchequer. Previous governments would have probably made that "deal" with no concern over EU law. On a side note, it saddens me to see people criticizing the low tax rate, without it many people I know simply would not have a job or would have had to move overseas to work in their respective fields (and the town I live in wouldn't have Gigabit fiber ).
  11. Its one seriously cool piece of tech. Would be great for renting where you cannot mount a projector on the ceiling.
  12. You might have problems with the newer Chipset & cpu. If you want to dual boot with windows I'd suggest getting a secondary drive to put osx on by itself. Things can go wrong and I've found that to be the most reliable way of not harming my windows installation. I don't want to direct you away from the ltt forums but Tony Mac x86 forums are a great resource for anything hackintosh.
  13. I doubt its the way you start it, unless you leave the bit sitting on the pins! Grasping at straws here's hardly something shorting something on the motherboard like part of the mounting / motherboard tray? Generally it would result in a dead board but stranger things have happened.
  14. It looks perfectly normal to me. Your memory usage is about average imo. In general, the more memory in your system, the more memory windows will use. Running out of memory won't necessarily make your machine instantly power down either, it will likely bsod first.( If windows is actually doing a proper shutdown look at the power button on your computer) I'd suggest looking towards hardware as the problem. PSU is usually the first suspect for these kinds of issues so, if possible I'd suggest trying to borrow one (that is known to be good) and see if the problem occurs while using that. Other things to look at are your memory, cpu / gpu temps and cables/wires and their connections. If your computer is abnormally slow it may be temp related as the cpu could be throttling.
