We are back again with the newest episode of AMD Ultimate Tech Upgrade! This time we are with one of our editors and meme lord extraordinaire, A.Prime. This one one was supposed to be to be a simple and straightforward upgrade. But that might've been a lie.

Wouldn't the 7950X3d have the Onboard AMD graphics? I thought all of the AMD CPU's had basic graphics now.... YES this one does.   Graphics good enough to run a 2D desktop experience.  I mean my 5700g can do my Linux desktop well enough that I am not tempted to run off either of the NVIDIA GPU's that I could use instead.

Just buy a PCIe Switch card for the M.2 NVMe SSD's, it can run of any count of PCIe lanes, like Liqid Element LQD4500 (Honey Badger). 
Even I have one... a cheaper one base on ASM2824, (so only PCIe 3.0 x8 upstream) but still.

Joking about someone's dead pet was extremely bad taste. Kinda ruined the video for me.

Rabbits only live 3-9 years. You dont get pets like that if you cant handle death. 

Get a parrot or a turtle if you want your pet to outlive you.

? I'm confused by why you are telling me this. I can handle death. I never said I had an issue with death being brought up.

Just take out the light and use it's power lines. Use some floor lamps.

As somebody on the youtubes suggested, pay an electrician to install downlights either side of the current fixture, then the projector in the middle. The electrician is necessary to confirm the wiring is suitable.

Or, save some money and just turn it into an outlet, or just turn it into a female grounded plug, and install consumer floor lamps.

 

PS: Or just cut open a power cable the projector uses and hotwire it to the electrical wires in the ceiling.

 

PPS: For legal reasons, that was a joke.
