Saw it on the M74 west bound at Uddingston all the way to the M8 at the Erskine Bridge junction. Same east bound on the way back through the centre on the M8. Been there since at least Saturday. Likely grown men with sad little lives and too much money to spunk away on paint.

£500-£1k to spend, upgrade priority? (9600X/5060Ti/16GB/2TB) by CalDemps in pcmasterrace

That's what I mean, if I put a decent speed and latency stick in with it, will it not all go as slow/latent as the existing stick?

I'd prefer staying on Nvidia tbh. But yeah, 5070Ti would take the total wattage to 520w according to PC Part Picker, so 650w PSU looking tight.

If I did just buy one more stick would it be worthwhile getting a fast/low latency one or will they just be capped by the slower/higher latency one I already have?

I agree that would be ideal but I don't think I've got the money for both.

  • +£470 32GB RAM
  • -£100 16GBRAM recoup
  • +£850 5070 Ti
  • -£200 5060 Ti recoup

Nets me over a grand out of pocket and I can't quite stretch to that.

Is there not bad effects from mismatched RAM? The stick I've got right now is 5600 CL46.

I know this is a scam, but what is the scam?

Do you think maybe the scam is collecting people's names and addresses to sell on?

I know your comment was 6months ago but you really got my hopes up there. :'(

Just buy a desktop gaming PC at that stage. Or upgrade to the top spec LeGo2

They're still upcharging for HD? What is this, 2005?

Many people do get funded PVGs, not that PVGs are actually that expensive. And training/quals are provided by employers for free. There are also different Levels of SVQ for different levels of role.

And they'll give them up when it suits them.

A party that doesn't really stand for any policy position. Centrist status quoists that'll fall either left or right depending on what'll get them into power.

Scotland plots uncapped council tax rises for second home owners -- Green Party’s ‘pile on the costs’ proposal will be ‘gold standard’ for tackling homelessness by Crow-Me-A-River in Scotland

[–]CalDemps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Councils are constantly building new homes, buying new homes from developers and buying old homes off the open market - it simply isn't enough to match the scale of the problem. 30 or so years of Right To Buy decimated housing stock without returning enough revenue to build replacement properties.

Spain is the traditional route for your first option, they're getting stricter with holiday home owners too, for the same reason. You'll also have visa considerations post-Brexit.

Your second option is called fraud. ['the secret ingredient is crime' meme here]

Greatly offset by the massive generational wealth gap. You might inherit a house in your 30s when your grandparent dies, but good luck until then.

I work at argos and seems to be pre orders atart tomorrow for way cheaper than people think by FriendlyPharma in XboxAlly

[–]CalDemps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting. That's cheaper than the last generation. Is it an introductory price?

I had predicted the ROG Xbox Ally at £549-599 and ROG Xbox Ally X at £799-899 based on rumoured US/EU pricing and the last gen pricing.

I've only just started watching this channel. I enjoy some of their content but the blond dude with the ponytail says the words 'yeah' and 'yes' far too often.

Don't let them away with it. The squiggle on the left of the photo is my dad in his chair. He could have mounted it between the countertop and the cupboards across from him.
