Soweit ich weiß gibts das defragmentieren für SSD's unter Win10 gar nicht. Ich kann bei mir nur das optimieren sehen. Bist Du Dir sicher das defragmentiert wurde?

Also diese Cyber Monday Week bei Amazon lohnt sich dieses Jahr echt überhaupt nicht. Billigsmartphones von unbekannten Herstellern, Powerbanks, Ladegeräte für Smartphones. Keine einzige SSD bei PC drin, keine brauchbaren Monitore, keine guten Smartphones, nichts. Hm...

Ich hab da bisher nicht so drauf geachtet, aber wie war die in den letzten Jahren denn so im vergleich so zu der jetzigen?

Die Hue-Franchise ist jedes Jahr immer um ein paar Euro billiger. Zieh leider erst im Frühling in ne neue Wohnung, dann aber ein paar der alten Living Colors aufkaufen und an ne Bridge hängen würde mich ja schon reizen

Beim Schnapps soll es sich laut Arbeitskollegen auch manchmal lohnen.

Sooo ich hab heute es endlich mal gebacken bekommen einen PC mit dem legendären LGA775 zu bekommen.

Drauf ist momentan ein Core2 Duo E6550 mit 4GB RAM. Ich hab vor ihn durch einen Q9450 (das beste was das Board unterstützt) und 8GB auszutauschen.

Hat jemand vielleicht bezahlbare Deals zu einem Q9450 und 8GB DDR2 (am besten DDR2-800) gesehen?

Was willst Du mit dem Teil machen?

Den Athlon 2 in den Ruhestand schicken. Ein Core2 Quad ist schneller

Hallo! In ein paar Jahren plane ich nach Deutschland zu gehen. Ich hoffte, mit einigen Eingeborenen sprechen, um eine Vorstellung von Leben zu bekommen. Meistens in Bezug auf die Ausgaben.
~ Dies geschah mit Google Translate, weil mein Deutsch ist einfach.

Hello! In a few years I plan on going to Germany for University. I was hoping to talk with some natives to get an idea of living. Mostly in terms of expenses.
~This was done with Google Translate because my German is basic.

Mostly about living expenses and jobs. At least for the average, uneducated individual. I read online that average cost of living is ~800 Euros /month?

Well, since i'm a pupil myself, i can't really say much about that. But i can tell you: it isn't quite cheap living here, since we took so many refugees to us.

And partially because of this, theres housing shortage in many cities, which makes Apartments and houses more expensive.

 

And just that you know: The Internet Connection in over 50% of the german households is under 50mbit/s

What do you mean, uneducated? 

The average costs depends on where you wanna live and whats your living standart.

Yikes! But I guess that makes sense. I'll probably look for Universities with dorms then.

Like out of High school. No higher education type stuff, I'm pretty experienced in the restaurant business but like, what's minimum wage there? and how easy is it to find a job?

The statutory minimum wage is I think at 8,50€ / h.

Ok. Not much different then what I get payed now. I think  There's a lot to take into account, but in the time I'm still here I think I can save up enough money to last me a month or so, maybe more

About what I had at home once. After we had dial up. Internet speed ain't too important, it doesn't have to be fast. Just unlimited and moderately quick.

Was gibts denn, Nachbar?

[NerdNinja]

So, I'm trying to figure out what university I would want to go to. Looking to Major in Film/VFX work but maybe also taking some engineering stuff.

 

EDIT:

 

So I've done a little research and have found a few, horror stories I guess. Not that they might scare me away but I really want to understand every aspect of studying abroad and to really know what I'm getting myself into.

 

I've seen that Berlin is tourist central but the local economy is broken, where as Munich has great schools but more of a housing and job issue. 

 

Also saw some articles about terrible execution of education being very stressful for students but these are only personal experiences and not many different schools.

 

 Obviously not all of this is a complete turn down but I really want to make sure I make the right decision the first time.....

I also need to consider what's best for me and my girlfriend whom I'll be traveling with and would rather not have to be stuck in separate homes/dorms

 

 

 

 

Please help
