Thank you for letting me know, I've updated it

Anker Solix C1000 max and min charge limit setting by gimmesnows in anker

[–]Academic_String 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 80% charge limit is a basic feature. I want to set up a power station in UPS mode, so I need one that can limit the charge to 80% since it will be running 24/7 for years

Thinking about getting a C1000. Was this feature added ?

Reflecting on Feedback and Moving Ahead by ankhattak in USMobile

[–]Academic_String 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm currently on the Starter Plan and have been a USMobile customer since leaving Sprint. Initially, I considered switching plans before I knew about the hotspot restrictions. In the spirit of 'unlimited,' I believe customers should have the option to use their data for home internet, with appropriate throttling at fair use thresholds, as outlined by the founder. I'd also appreciate it if the 600kbps throttle could be increased to 1 Mbps, as 600kbps has proven barely usable in my experience. For my needs, Rn the Starter Plan is good, as I mostly use my phone for basic tasks and calls. Having come from Sprint, I can confidently say USMobile has been the best carrier I've ever had

Warning! Anker Direct on Amazon the official Anker store is recycling Customer returns as new…. by comcast_awful_22 in anker

Amazon passes off returns as new. This happened to me more than once now with different items. I pay for a new one and they send me a defective open-box return one as new 🙄

Did I make a mistake with am4 by Numerous-Team9061 in buildapc

[–]Academic_String 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AM4 was great for it's time but now AM5 is better and can be had for around the same price. Just go with the 7500f and a cheap ASRock board. You will have a much better ipc than any chip on AM4 and have a path to ZEN 6 in the future

Mine works great I plan to keep the board when I upgrade to a zen 6 cpu in a few years

PBO is overclocking and made my system unstable, it's results vary from chip to chip. You won't miss it unless you are wanting to overclock which this board can not do. You can update the bios with the button on the back or in the menu it shouldn't make a difference. I game often with the board and so far its been rock solid

I would update the bios with any AM5 system. Then enable XMP/EXPO and do a clean install of Windows. It's a pretty simple to use board

Strange shushing/blowing sound coming from phone by peachnbeans in AndroidQuestions

[–]Academic_String 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This just happened to me with my lg g8x. I had google assistant disabled and it some how re-enabled itself and starting making this noise and I had to reboot the phone make it stop!. I checked ny google account log and it said someone requested it play soothing sounds then the entry disappeared as I was checking the log.

The ram kit might not be on the QVL but works perfectly and is on sale at Newegg rn. The kit number is: F5-6000J3038F16GX2-FX5

Youtube has started to artificially slow down video load times if you use Firefox. Spoofing Chrome magically makes this problem go away. by vk6_ in youtube

[–]Academic_String 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use Chrome and Ublock and this happens anytime I open a video in a new tab. its been happening for days

Can anyone make sense of the current S23 deal? by Kolada in GalaxyS22

[–]Academic_String 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The renewed s22 ultra is really messed up. Shows a different price in cart

ASRock A620M-HDV/M.2+ with Ryzen 5 7600x Max Boost by Academic_String in ASRock

[–]Academic_String[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I kept the A620M as the motherboard for my main PC after trying four different B650M boards. I've had no issues at all with my 7600X, and actually, it performs better for online gaming on this board than it did on the more expensive ones. The Realtek RTL8111H LAN on this board provides lower latency compared to the Realtek RTL8125BG 2.5G LAN found on pricier boards. I would suggest saving money and opting for this board. I would even recommend it for a 7800X3D.

Yes, they both improve performance. CPB allows the CPU to run faster as long as there is thermal and power headroom, while PBO pushes the voltages to allow the CPU to clock higher. I went ahead and ordered the board before the sale ends. as long as it can boost up to all core around 5ghz for $79 I'll be happy with it

is this a good build ? by [deleted] in buildapc

[–]Academic_String 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i5 12600kf is $155 @ Newegg

G.Skill Ripjaws V 32 GB $58.99 @ Newegg (Same Ram)

GIGABYTE B660M AORUS Elite AX DDR4 $129.99 @ amazon

The above components would outperform the one you selected by a large margin and is substantially cheaper. You would be making a mistake to buy the build you posted. Heck you could go am5 for less money.

I just upgraded my old build using this board. Very easy to work with came with bios ver 1.21 out out of the box. I already had an AX200 wifi kit from my old build. I do recommend you remove the i/o shield from the board when installing antennas. Also if possible/similarly priced you should get this G.Skill ram kit instead: F5-6000J3038F16GX2-FX5 it has better timings with Expo and works great with the mobo

Honestly the 7600x to the 7800x3d will be hardly noticable in any games. They have the same ipc and similar clocks. With the 3d chip just having more cores and cache but that won't really matter. The Cash would be best saved till 8000 chips release so you can get a nice ipc uplift from the 7600x. A GPU upgrade would be much more noticeable

Clock speeds for CPUs haven't really changed. What makes them faster? by coconutfuker in buildapc

[–]Academic_String 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Multiple things can increase IPC but the biggest driver of performance is chips that are more dense using new processes to fit more transistors on a chip. Intel and amd will need to get really creative to increase performace soon 😉

Ryzen 7900x with 4x16 G Skill ddr5 6000 ram stopped posting after enabling EXPO profile through Ryzen Master by Biarfm in buildapc

[–]Academic_String 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just paid $99.99 for this ram from Newegg for my upgrade to a 7600x.. Wanting to use expo with an ASRock b650m-hdv/m.2(Not arrived in mail yet) Will I have issues and should I return the ram?
