  1. So I like the simplicity and look of the Windows Mail app and was wondering how I could stop it from updating automatically without stopping my other store apps from updating. I'm using the last version before they added that annoying "switch to outlook" dialogue and was wondering if there was a value I could change in the Registry Editor or Powershell that would solve my problem. I'd use Outlook if it wasn't trying to shove 365 down my throat and things like thunderbird and mailspring just don't look anywhere near as nice IMO.
  2. Hey so I went to ASUS asking for replacement screws after losing mine in a move but they weren't able to send me any. Any idea exactly what kind they use? I'd rather not spend the full $13 on Amazon for a full VESA kit when I only need 4 screws for the monitor. I checked their site and couldn't find what kind either.
  3. Pretty much just wondering how much it weighs without any liquid in it.
  4. Hey so I owned a V30 which doesn't work on CW due to it's lack of HD Voice. Wondering if the V60 is compatible and if so which model would work the best?
  5. So I was recently gifted a iBUYPOWER PC with an ASUS TUF B365M-PLUS Gaming motherboard included. iBUYPOWER says that any thing other than an ASRock motherboard uses the motherboard manufacturer's own RGB software. I downloaded ASUS' AURA Creator application but there are no compatible devices being shown. Any ideas where I went wrong? Edit: A previous version of the AURA software worked fine but it looked incredibly different and stopped working about a month ago. Don't know if this helps.
  6. Only the slot difference, just go about installing your OS the same as with any other drive.
  7. Here's an excel document with a list of many SFF cases available to help you sort through some options. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1dzRY3LLsXcDX5Qt5PvQOrAJhw0EK9Cy7UtQPdyRp6PY/edit#gid=0
  8. That's already a great build. Air cooling is my favorite way to go so if you do decide to upgrade the cooler (since Intel does run quite hot these days) I'd recommend the Noctua NH-D15. Since the CHROMAX version seems to be out of stock around you, if you care about looks and don't mind a bit higher temps the be quiet! Dark Rock Pro 4 is also a great choice. Also the NVME drive would cost as much as the Samsung with significantly more performance. Crucial is a reputable company with good reviews so it's a pretty good option. This is the build I'd recommend: PCPartPicker Part List Type Item Price CPU Intel Core i9-9900K 3.6 GHz 8-Core Processor $908.60 @ Newegg Australia CPU Cooler be quiet!

  9. Nah that's more than good enough. Unless running dual graphics that are incredibly inefficient, you can make do with a 750 watt in almost any build. If I remember correctly also the 80+ rating is more about energy wasted and money saved than actually measuring some hindrance to your PSU wattage.
  10. Yeah it should be able to handle 1440p Ultra settings in most games out there with around 100 FPS average.
  11. So I've been looking for a good Android music player with priority sorting/grouping where I can sort by Genre first, then by Album, then by Title. It would be nice if you could make individual playlists have separate sorting rules too. Musicolet gets the closest out of the few I've tried but it tends to forget my position in the tags section and I have to re-scroll through the whole thing every time I open the app. AIMP was okay if it weren't for it's meh interface and no unique sorting per playlist.
  12. So I posted two things this morning at around 2:00 AM and don't have any replies. Is there a specific time frame to wait before being allowed to post it at a better time in the day or am I stuck? I know this is a small issue but it doesn't hurt to know for the future.
  13. So I don't care about streaming or anything like that. I just want a simple app that will let me do sorting groups like having Genre as 1st priority, Artist as 2nd, Album as 3rd. Something like that. Preferably without advertisements even if it costs a bit out of pocket. Also where I can transfer music through the cable, foobar was great until I noticed that garbage requirement of wireless only transfers.
  14. So I'm pretty sure I've googled a good five times, triple checked all the menus, reinstalled the app and everything in between. I just can't get MusicBee to sync. I just keep getting this error. So how does one go about fixing it?
  15. Thanks I'll give that a shot. And yeah, they're about 1 second each.
