  1. What are the advantages of doing a clean install of an OS when you change out your Drives. Is there a noticeable difference between a clean install vs. cloning an old drive
  2. Right, the chart shows the retail price, but it's limited. It only shows stores that report their prices and doesn't always inculde sale prices or bundle discounts, and the bundle discount that is offered right now ($40) is a big deal for parts like this.
  3. Yea, the price reduction is what drove me right to the 2600. It looks the like the discount that MicroCenter is doing is to sell of the B450 MOBOs
  4. Thank you. That's what my suspension was but I haven't really price tracked this kind of thing before. I didn't think it would necessarily get cheaper, but I just wasn't sure. My budget is 250, and with all the parts I listed before, I come in at 248 with tax. CPU is 120, MOBO is 45, with the discount, and the RAM is $60. I was thinking about getting faster RAM, but the next step up, including the 3600 Ripjaws is usually $20 more, and price is the biggest player for me. Also, the 3600 is $70, at best, so that's out
  5. I'm about ready to do a system overhaul, new MOBO, CPU, and RAM. I am trying to decide if I should wait until holiday time frame and hope there are some good deals, or buy now while microcenter is having a MOBO, CPU bundle discount. Thoughts? The discount is $40 by the way. Looking at getting a Ryzen 2600, ASROCK B450M Pro4, and Ripjaws RAM, 2X8GB
  6. The purpose, pros and cons of the "Bridge Connections" function in Win 10 in the Network Connections page. Then compare and contrast it to trunking.
  7. No, I'm not sure lol. I saw that article and was/am hoping there is another way to do it because I can't find where one can easily and cost effectively order one. Also, I have the keyboard I want to put in there and it is only the keyboard, not the cover and everything.
  8. My laptop is a 15T-K000 with the non-backlit keyboard. I'm trying to replace it with only the backlit keyboard. I'm having a difficult time trying to find how to remove the keyboard. It has to come out of the back side, I know that. Nothing on YouTube, HP, anywhere that I've searched. I'll attach a photo to show you what I'm working with but any help would be amazing!
