Thanks for checking on the basics. I do have and use compressed air but I literally had no idea that my TV had a gaming mode, which I’ve just discovered it does
The RAM I bought was recommended by a friend but perhaps they didn’t know they had to match idk.
I appreciate the order of priorities, that helps a lot
I had no idea this was a thing, I have found Game Mode on my TV, hahah
Will see what this changes
Thanks for this. I’m not 100% against learning how to build my own, it’s more that the more I read the more confused I get about what order to prioritise upgrades and the various knock on effects everything has. I appreciate you coming up with an order to go about things
Appreciate this, thanks
Thanks for this
Ah I understand, thanks
So is the motherboard the best thing to use as The Thing I Keep and level up everything else to meet its ability?
I’ll Google “what does a home server do” and get back to you, ha
Very kind of you I use it for everything (I’ve edited the post to give more info) so I’m not against spending a few grand (UK£) if now is the right time to do so. If it’s not the right time then I’m trying to work out what I can replace that will be compatible and easy for a noob to install I guess
Sorry, I’m being a noob, but what does “upgrade everything to max spec” mean? Does that mean to replace everything, in which case are you suggesting it’s time for a whole new rig?
I’m currently using my TV as monitor because I use the pc for everything, I don’t watch regular TV and anything I do watch I stream. Is using a TV as a monitor a bad thing?
Yeah I guess I’m trying to work out if now is the right time, or to hang on a while
Sorry, yeah I’m new at this. I’ll edit to add info
It’s hooked up to my TV because I use it for everything from simple browsing, YouTube, streaming TV/movies, to gaming. For games the most taxing is something like BG3, but I can’t think of anything else in terms of taxing programmes.
I don’t think I’d have a user for it if I kept it. Even if I kept the hard drive I’d have to research How and What To Save To Which Drive On Your PC, ha
I’m not against investing a few grand if it’s the right money spent at the right time, if that makes sense? My worry about changing individual parts is the standard worries about installation and compatibility, but if it’s too soon to be chasing the whole rig then I can get over that
Interesting, what kind of temps are a bad sign?
So just updating to a SSD might be sufficient? I was worried it was too late to be changing individual parts as the remaining parts wouldn’t be able to support them, but maybe not?
Yeah that’s a misquote that’s she’s been fighting against for the last few days.
Here she lays out how she’s voting for Harris but specifies that her voting for someone doesn’t mean Chappell Roan™®© endorses Harris
Thanks for this
I’ll take a look, thanks
I’m sure there’s a way to still play it? I’m not sure how but I’ll look into it
Apologies for lack of clarity. Currently the topper just rests upon the top of the bath, this plus some plastic sheeting affixed to the underside of the topper gives a decent protective seal from weather etc.
I’m thinking folding legs are necessary as the internal depth of the bath is only 43cm (16.9 inches) so if they don’t fold it would be rather short
Wonderful, many thanks
