    Just witnessed one of my professors shred a 20-page document to pieces and jam our copier in the process by putting a pretty hefty stack of stapled paper into the auto feeder and walking away.
    I've done this with two or three page documents before on my little scanner, usually the roller pulls the top page in, then the corner of the next page comes with it and then the scanner recognizes there's a jam and stops. But it doesn't look like the copier stopped pulling the paper at any point here. Not much of the packet came out on the other end of the tray but there sure was quite a lot stuck inside the scanner mechanism.
    And of course, that 20-page packet was the only copy.

    Yes maybe or the stick itself. Hopefully it turns on if you remove the 8gb stick

    TBH, pretty fair. And kinda the ideal. You really don't want to need to know what brand you're using, it should just get out of the way and let you compute

    I'd trust @Somerandomtechyboi, when he speaks about RAM it looks like hieroglyphics to me, so he probably knows what he's talking about.

    is ram oc really that confusing? all i see is a bunch of timings i can tighten or loosen depending on if im trying to get max performance or just doing frequency runs and some voltages that affect the rams
     
    though i guess theres also lots of ics and lots of platfroms with varying oc capabilities from trash to really good and you have to dig around to know what the hardware is capable of or just buy the hardware try it for yourself which resulted in me getting 3400 ddr3 on 45nm bloomfield of all things with ambient cooling
     
    dual rank outperforming single rank abit is just general knowledge though it has a lesser effect on ddr5 compared to ddr4 and ddr3
     
    i mainly focus on frequency shenanigans so ram performance wise i only have a really basic idea with freq > timings and timings wise tertiares > secondaries > primaries alongside general knowledge like dual rank > single rank and more trefi = better, ill explore actually getting good ram performance in depth when i get interested in benching

    Huh, TIL RAM Speed Groups
    https://www.crucial.in/support/memory-speeds-compatability

    Again, these are gonna be *really* similar in performance, but the Corsair sticks have a slightly higher base speed grade

    Personally I'd go with corsair just because I have run a lot of their dimms and they've always handled RMA well, but freal, don't stress, it won't matter much

    corsair as its dual rank so abit of a performance boost over the teamgroup clock for clock
     
    an exception would be if you are gonna run on an amd apu then youd wanna go for the teamgroup unless you can verify that the corsair is samsung d die (capable of ~4600) and not shitty c die or even unbinned b die that definitely wont clock past 4000

    Welcome to the forums!
    The TeamGroup kit has tighter timings, but both are gonna perform very similarly

    Tan3l6 reacted to YoungBlade in Which overkill X670E board should I get (for 7950X3D)   
    The Taichi also has an overkill VRM, that's true, but the Aorus Master ended up 4C cooler in Hardware Unboxed's testing.
    With that said, had the OP given the Taichi as an option, I would have mentioned it. The difference is small enough that the two are basically equivalent in terms of the VRMs.

    Tan3l6 reacted to Agall in Which overkill X670E board should I get (for 7950X3D)   
    X670e Pro Art is the most interesting, its got some extra features like USB4 and type-c with 60W PD from the front header (with the use of the 6pin nearby the 24pin).
     
    VRM is nice and all, but the 7950x3D is at most a 150W CPU.
     
    I got the X670e Aorus Master because I already had a Gigabyte 4090, who's included anti-sag bracket was designed around that series of motherboards. It was totally worth buying a motherboard around. I also like the fact that it has a backplate, which comes from my mITX days where that actually matters.

    I wish I didn't go X670E simply because I could and thought it would be cool. The lighter weight B650 boards seem to boot faster. My completely unverified assumption is the lack of the second chipset saves a few seconds during POST. 
     
    X670E Taichi would like a word. 😄

    In Disk Management, you can create a dynamic volume combining two drives - OR, you can mount one in the NTFS volume of the other.
