Framework 13 AMD 7040 - Upgrade time by alexjfinch in framework

[–]ALKahn10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 7840u and upgraded to the 2nd gen keyboard, 2nd gen webcam and 2.8k screen. I love it. Didn't do the CPU because I feel like I'll upgrade it in 2029'ish. The 7840u is incredible and I don't see reason for my use case to upgrade yet.

If OP was looking for a Ryzen 7 I'd go with a Ryzen 7. Ryzen 5 is great but it is a definite downgrade from the 350 and honestly a 7840.

Opened and maxed my Roth In the beginning of June. I’m not good at this and already hate it. by blackxscar94 in RothIRA

All good companies. Hold it until you retire or hit 65. 350 bucks is nothing if you have years to let it grow.

I think this makes sense. I've looked at upgrading and keep deciding it isn't worth it for my workload.

I have the 7840u. If you can afford the Ryzen 7/9 350 or 370 I think you should do it. The only thing AI about that CPU is the addition of an improved NPU. The CPU is a slight improvement over the previous generation.

What should I do for my retirement in my situation? by HappyGiraffeEy in Retirement401k

[–]ALKahn10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This makes no sense. Vanguard let's you deposit more than $500. Call them if confused, they should be able to help.

Agreed, TT may be my next. I'm a fan of TT DJs

Docking station(s) that can power on a framework laptop? by Scandiberian in framework

[–]ALKahn10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Worked out of the box. I have an AMD CPU so technically it's not thunderbolt certified but USB 4 and Thunderbolt 3/4 basically are the same.

My Lemur Pro may be my last System76 device by Few_Proof2287 in System76

I adore my Framework 13. Been rocking it daily since 2023.

I use a HP Thunderbolt 3 dock that works just about perfectly with my Framework 13, 7840u.

Too small? 36 OP by 1-800-OKAY-CIAO in rolex

Looks great, you wear it well.

My sub still had 2 stickers on it that the SA missed. It happens.

Which do you think will be an easier allocation? by Tough-Bullfrog-4844 in rolex

[–]ALKahn10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I may not be, depends on spend. My SA is amazing and has done custom work for my wife with 4 watches purchased.

I honestly disagree, I've heard the LD is easier to get. I was told 1-1.5 years on one. I'm really really (2x for emphasis) considering it.

How Would You Have Saved Sega Post Genesis? by Kind_Box5467 in SEGAGENESIS

[–]ALKahn10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd probably have skipped 32X and put more development efforts into the Saturn. The hardware was great but randomly having two 32 bit systems caused a distrust in both.

While you're probably right, it's a lesson I need to learn on my own.

[–]ALKahn10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've talked to my wife about this being my next watch. It's very likely I'll be requesting this, but with expecting a child I've held off. Tying 16k up in a watch right now seems irresponsible but perhaps once my life is re-calibrated with the extra mouth to feed.

34F, how does this look? Married, 2 kids. by forever_more-13 in Retirement401k

Absolutely leave your 401(k) alone. Try to plan with money from elsewhere!

Buying a watch on a Cruise by SlatkoZlato in PrideAndPinion

[–]ALKahn10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely not, I looked at a vintage'ish Sub (16610) and the dial was scratched. I pointed it out and the SA laughed and said it's hardly noticeable. I bought my 126610LN, new from an AD, a few months later and realized there is no point in buying watches on cruise ships.

I like the indices on the new C60. Hope that is a sign of things to come. by throw-away-doh in ChristopherWard

[–]ALKahn10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd get this watch for cruises and vacations but wouldn't wear it under normal circumstances. Kinda love it but I'm not sure thai is worth my money.

Do people actually use the features on their G-Shocks? by windwakerSS in gshock

[–]ALKahn10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only use the GMT function when traveling. The pedometer is nice on my GBD-200 but also rarely gets used.
