  1. Well no... That's debatable at best. And I had to go on something, since remote purchase was the only option for me. People, please don't post "hindsight is 20/20" comments. I'm just sharing my experience, I'm not looking for advice. Most of us can come to their own conclusions.
  2. In my experience, bluescreen texts these days reveal nothing. You have to look for memory dump. Think it is on by default. If it's software. it will be in the dump. If dump does not exist, then probably hardware issue. I'd start with memtest, or checking OS drive for corruption. On second thought, fastest and simplest solution would be to reinstall OS. If concerned that it's hardware fault and reinstalling would be a waste of time and effort. Install on another drive. Or try running OS from USB storage.
  3. Since I bought my MAXNOMIC chair based on Linus recommendation, I thought I'd share my story here. Previously I had a chair that I've used for about 10 years that has slowly broken down, but was and still is usable. But when I decided to change it, it was cause cushioning wore out and my legs started to fall asleep while sitting on it. I had to shift and change positions regularly. So I bought my TITANUS BLUE office chair [MXNTI01BLUXL] back in January 2017 for 514 EUR delivered. Went for the big sized chair cause of my wide shoulders. First impressions coming from my leg numbing chair were great. But about 4 months later I started to notice things. At first I noticed that one of my legs was not supported like the other and swung wider open. When ever I relaxed my neck, my head rolled to one side. So I took a closer look. Turns out that the bottom cushioning was asymmetric, it looked like it had poorly hand carved side supports. Which is why one of my legs swung out wider. Then I found out that gas spring is wobbly, and tilts to one side when sitting, causing my head to roll on one side when I relaxed my neck. Since the chair was under warranty I contacted customer support and had a swift and free exchange for those parts. 10/10 customer support. So the new parts arrive and all seams good for another couple of months. The gas spring tilt returns, although not as bad as before. The cushioning is still slightly asymmetrical, but not noticeable on normal use. 4/10 quality control. About 3 years pass and the top of arm rests starts to separate. The finish on PU leather starts to come off. Disappointed, but the functionality is unchanged. Then, this week I heard/felt a snap while leaning back. At first it seamed like it came from the spring of leaning mechanism, functionality unchanged? Well today I discovered that actually the right side of frame for bottom cushioning snapped. And my back support starts to twist, cause one side bends down. So functionally it is useless now. I'd also like to add, that for me the chair was not 480 (price without shipping) EUR comfortable. Bad lower back support, the included pillow is too small for the chair. It most definitely was not 480 EUR durable. I rate my 5 year and 4 moth experience 200/480 EUR. For context, I have always been within "spec" for this chair. Athletic 190 cm, 93 - 100(*cough isolation cough*) Kg. Update: Disassembled the chair and brought the broken frame/chassis to welder. Chair is fixed, welder said that one of the welds was more of a melted hole than a weld, which could have had compromised the strength of that part.
  4. G502 Mouse, Steelseries QcK mousepad, Frankenstained Pioneer SE-M390 headphones, and a Logitech Internet 350 keyboard. ...dang, that gear looks sweet.
  5. Running GTX 760 and gibe nao pls cause it's a neat updgrade.
  6. This should be attractive for people who have to go around and do presentations.
  7. Been using Logitech Internet 350 keyboard for ages. Feedback of mechanical keyboards is something that intrigues me. I want to have one at some point.
  8. Here's the salt i was talking about. *Audit a PC *Preferably free standalone software *Log the information *Summarise all the logs in sensible overview. *Maybe there's a tool that works with .nfo files? Now that's enough to ring a bell of a soft if you know one. What information it logs and what not is not that important, i'm looking for options not "I WANT EXACTLY THAT!". I'm not asking any one to make or find one for me. But if you're curious i'm looking for IP, User, CPU, GPU, RAM, USB and COM ports, i can stitch the overviews or present separately if there is a tool that gets some and another one gets the rest.
  9. Hey there! I'm tasked to find a way how to audit over 30 PC's and get the information of interest to be displayed for easy overview. Anyone knows of a, preferably free, software that is standalone, able to log information and then make a summary? Maybe something that can summary NFO files? Help?
  10. Excalibur v2 keyboard. Never had a mechanical keyboard.
  11. Be clearer about the set up. So there's a 5.1 system that has it's amplifier and individual speakers are plugged in to that with 3.5 mm jacks?
  12. Pretty sure the output from laptop will be too low for those.
  13. Well there you go. Nothing wrong here. Thermodynamics seam reasonable.
  14. It's a 25 W TDP APU with 4 1.3 GHz cores. It's far from a heater. What cooling for it are you using?
