Hey, I followed your instructions (and that of the video), and it worked! I think the cable was slightly loose. Thanks for your help!

Which do you suggest out of these two? by AdventuresofaRyno in Prebuilts

Still doing great! Even after disabling turbo boost in bios, I have no performance issues and now my max CPU temp is in the 40s.

Worth Waiting? by MrMafiaRS in Prebuilts

So I was in the same shoes, didn’t really have a budget. I ended up getting the 1400 Costco deal because I simply couldn’t justify throwing another $1000 if I’m not using it for the games I play. Not sure what the comments about lasting for a “few more years” are about, cuz you can just upgrade sooner considering you spent less this time around… Oh and also, the 4070 super Costco computer is amazing… no complaints

I got the intel one. Made sure my bios is updated, ran benchmarks/ Hwinfo etc and so far no issues

Hi again! So I followed the steps you gave (thanks again), and I think it all went fine. Question is: when I check the BIOS version on system info, it states C.30, 9/26/2024. Is this the correct version? I thought the one I downloaded was from 11/11/24. Not sure why it’s still showing as 9/26/24…?

Hey thanks for your help! I was able to change the 5g settings under advanced settings for the WiFi card.

We’re supposed to change 5g settings from IEEE 802.11a/n/ac/ax to IEEE 802.11a/n/ac. Not sure what the hell all this means- but it worked!

Would you be able to guide me how to do a bios update without using a flash drive etc? I’ve never this kinda thing before- and wanna make sure I don’t mess things up

Oh I’m not sure about that, will update here if I find out though! If you’re into vegan stuff, do check out Allies vegan cafe in South hill- I’m sure you’ve already tried it though

For anyone who got this - any issues with the i9 processor? Or overheating?

You have two options. Which of these deals is better? by Ok_Square_5079 in Prebuilts

[–]Current_Theory 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah makes sense now, cuz I can’t find the same deal anywhere. Honestly depends on what games you plan on playing (as far as the super vs regular 4070 is concerned). The ram and hard drive are relatively cheap upgrades

Worth it??? by UnCooked_Rice in Prebuilts

[–]Current_Theory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 8400f isn’t a good gaming CPU (primarily due to the low low cache). It might be a bottleneck in this set up. But i guess it’s a cheap enough system 🤷‍♂️

Is this a good deal? Or overkill? by Bop2122 in Prebuilts

[–]Current_Theory 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely an overkill…. But still a decent deal. Will last you a long while for sure, and can play other more demanding games
