Because it's so obvious every time.

Like literally couldn't be more obvious, not just a little.

I need to find some new monitors.

No rush though, only thing I'm playing is FO76.

There are a ton coming out the next few months. Big jump in monitors this year for every flavor.

4K 144Hz mini LED FALD to 1440/240 FALD and every feature imaginable.

Glad to see the big TV makers putting a lot into high end gaming monitors.

Her name is Jojo, so now we have Coco and Jojo.

Been good, just shifted away from following the gaming/hardware industry. In fact, I completely skipped over Ryzen so I don't even know what's around the corner. I have been playing games here and there, just finished Fallen Order.

Fishes good, except for the ones that die. Learning which species are "difficult" to keep in terms of their origin (usually mass-bred and inbred in farms and are basically clinging to life by the time they make it to a retailer). Cardinal tetras are a real bitch. I think I've purchased over 60 of those frickers and have around 20 left, the strongest survivors.

Trying to find water parameters that are suitable for all my species across all 7 tanks so I'm not chasing specific PH, hardness, etc. all the time.

Yeah, same, gaming computer hardware is like my 4th or 5th hobby now. Really just into small project sbcs.

Sure it's his little girl or boy who picked it out.

Edt: unless he is celebrating gay pride month, which is June, this month.

LSUToo, look at us on the beach 3weeks ago.

They are 100% encrypted by the ransomware, from other reports not "confirmed". How much you think this will cost Honda?

Anyone catching early B550 reviews?

Hardware unboxed did a good VRM test, long story short, practically speaking not many reasons to get X570 over B550, even if they arent priced much different.

Never cheap out on the PSU or MOBO.

Just because VRM tests hold up, doesn't mean the other components over time will hold up. Nothing is worse than trying to trouble shoot weird errors if it is a MOBO issue.

That is all I have to say about carrying non-flagship chipsets in MOBOs to be used in gaming rigs. Now, in other types of builds, say using consumer parts for a FreeNAS build, sure, just do research on the other components. They won't see the stress over time a gaming build MOBO might see.

Are you into Embedded MOBOs? SBCs or any other Embedded Solution?

Udoo Bolt Gear: Ryzen Embedded MOBO

I really want that Udoo board to mess around with, idk for what, maybe emulation box?

I just purchased a J5005itx to upgrade my FreeNAS box and put it below 10W under load.

Edt: did they fix the whole BIOS limit issue? Well not fix, but adjusted in any way? Or that is mostly just board specific?

No, the fallout games never sucked me in. Probably didn't give them enough time, or just my mindset in general when trying to play them.

They are terrible games, honestly junk. But the world/universe built is fun to explore. I also love the lore, I read every piece of text in the game.

One of my only posts on the tech board, here it is

OpenZFS removed master/slave terminology from its codebase

I hate PC/SJ culture.
