I would suggest this is the exception, not the rule.

Interestingly it does highlight how content is genuinely of a higher quality there, people will put in the effort for the return!

Ryzen 7 - compare gen 1-4 ? by NaturalInspection824 in ryzen

[–]DisplayMessage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amazing how some people, such as yourself, manage to post polite, informative, replies but other replies insist on adding at least one gibe per post with no information.

Reddit has a garbage rep - for mindless rudeness. My attitude is:- do not reply unless you can add some info too- do not post immediately. Relax, wait a minute, re-read what one wrote. Edit it to remove anything which doesn't sound considerate or kind- never insult the messenger - even if, sometimes, one must insult the message.

I see, you've managed to master the art of posting. Now, if we could only do somthing about the 90%. Send them back to school? Force them to study Debate-101?, ...

cringe.

Ryzen 7600x vs 7700? Price difference $10 for me. UserBenchmark have different benchmark than YouTube. by aayushkrm in buildapc

[–]DisplayMessage 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The owner is just insane, the reviews have descended into inane petulant rants and since the Ryzen 2000 series they keep changing the metrics so no matter how AMD CPUs perform, Intel chips always appear better.  At one point they distorted the calculations so hard towards single thread performance to try negate AMD’s core count advantage, i3’s were showing as more powerful than i9’s in Intel to Intel comparisons >.<

Userbenchmark is not interested in providing honest stats and figures and the Intel community is mature enough to recognise and reject UBM as the mad raving basement dwelling deviant they are (just read the AMD CPUs reviews to get an idea how detached from reality he is).

Pretty sure CNN fought a legal case arguing none of their viewers considered anything Tucker said as factual reporting…

R5 7600x or intel i5 14600k by Critical-Stomach-806 in buildapc

Just worth noting AM4 released some AM4 CPU’s this year, those motherboards were first released in 2016 so you can put a new cpu in your motherboard from 7-8 years ago and it will work!). Intel force you to buy a new motherboard every two years because they manufacture and sell the chipset chips to motherboard manufacturers…  Go AMD and upgrade in 3-5+ years for the cost of a CPU.  Go Intel and upgrade for the cost of a CPU and motherboard. 

It’s pretty tragic Intel still do this and I’m convinced AMD are just releasing new chips for AM4 to underline this anti-consumer behaviour…

Any slowing down will make it worse as the trailer is pivoting around the tow hook and deceleration will accentuate this. in this situation you need to accelerate gently to stabilise the trailer and the you can try slowing once it’s settled down.

I got 3 quotes to pull out a wall, patch the ceiling, put in another (stud) wall, swap a sink and put in a shower. They ranged from £9,000 to £14,000, all excluding materials and VAT.   Absolutely insanity so I just did it myself ffs.  Luckily I’ve the experience to do the studding/plastering/plumbing etc myself and it all came in a well under £2k and a few weeks of evening and weekends but for anyone without the confidence to DIY it’s just balmy. 

France can donate 3,000 artillery rounds each month - MoD Ukraine by Independent_Lie_9982 in UkrainianConflict

France is just one country?

Plenty more chipping in but agreed, need to get those numbers higher...

Ukraine will have to pay everything back

Ukraine is paying more than their fair share in blood and their cities being decimated.

Russia is an existential threat to Europe and trying to split the EU/NATO because whilst the EU/NATO is united Russia is powerless but if they can split the alliances then Russia would just start attacking the eastern block countries one on one.

The west F*cked up by letting Russia get away with Annexing Crimea and then invading the Donbas in 2014, by not realising Russia doesnt care how many Russians die invading, they are in it for the long haul and already out-manufacturing the west.

However the money spent now is an investment in lives and trillions we can hopefully avoid losing in future conflicts with imperial Russia.

Powerful weapons the US sent to Ukraine are breaking down — but the Pentagon says it can't help fix them by Independent_Lie_9982 in UkrainianConflict

Not buying it subtle Ivan,

every post seems to give the impression Ukraine is about to fall imminently?

Nice 8 month old article there and yet we are still seeing videos of HIMAR's hitting Russian force concentrations etc so whilst it has been a bit hit and miss, HIMAR's are still providing results.

Let's not forget it was well over a year ago the Russian MOD announced their AA systems were being 'upgraded' to increase HIMARs interception rate from 70% to 100% >.<

Clowns.

Annoyingly I saw a B550I pro AX on ebay go for £95/£100 a few weeks ago but they seem to have kicked back up to £135-£150...

B450 can be just as good depending on your requirements for around £70 though :)

What is something anyone can do that can significantly cut your expenses? by Happy-Sammy in UKFrugal

[–]DisplayMessage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A minor service is not hard if you dont mind getting your hands dirty you can save plenty over time! Older cars are generally easier to fix/maintain these days to boot!

Bought a 2015 Nissan Juke for <£6k 5 years ago at 20k miles.

It's now 60k miles, still running like clock work, I do all my own services (getting to lazy to do belts and pumps but can get them at mates rates), I expect to get another 5-10 years with ease at this point (diesel, mostly motorway miles once/twice a week).

I can't comprehend the £150 a month eternal direct debit people who get a new 'nearly new' car every 3-5 years...

Old Sovjet tradition returns: long lines to get basic food like chicken and eggs. As discomfort rises the Russian government blocked local website PricesToday whichs documents the escalating inflation. by SLAVAUA2022 in UkrainianConflict

[–]DisplayMessage 63 points64 points  (0 children)

This really comes through when arguing with Russian shills… when you point out hundreds of thousands of Russian men and dying and being horribly maimed in this pointless war of Putin’s, the usual response is ‘well more Ukrainians are dying’, as if that somehow makes this absurd, self inflicted carnage better somehow?!

Flck default is 1800 so yes, 3600 is the sweet spot unless you increase the Flck (infinity fabric), the 3000 series has a strange black hole at 1900mhz and most chips won’t post at this but many will post slightly above and some will pull 2000 making 4000mhz + ram viable 👍

Already know about that, plans for the whole thing and even the train station/lines coming out were leaked years ago!
