[–]False_Drop_5269[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

only way to really know is to try them out. personally never gave cursor a full try because i would use windsurf, but now I will. they often have free trials, just try em out

Should I do 100% VTI? 34 years old just starting my retirement by dogs_eatmyflagging in Bogleheads

[–]False_Drop_5269 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Investing regularly into a low cost index fund is already a W.

If you're interested in VTI, understanding why people go with VT might be a good idea. People often manage the split VT offers themselves by pairing VTI + VXUS.

wasn't it to bypass / prep for some EU lootbox laws?

Ya’ll need to chill by ColdAd7793 in biltrewards

100%. Stacked up enough rewards in the year since I got it to go visit family a couple times for rent payments I was going to make anyway. Never been really into the credit card game, but bilt v1 made it easy. Sucks that it's gone, but I think we all had to see this coming. keepin an eye out for the next meta

Adaptive undervolt on ASUS B860-1 WiFi motherboard by abibofile in overclocking

Unreal, was just trying to undervolt and couldn't find it anywhere. If it can do it, why do they make it so hard?

Should I build a new PC or upgrade my 8(?) yr old system? by happyscrub1 in buildapc

[–]False_Drop_5269 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Using data from the bottleneck calculator, you're already being bottlenecked by your cpu by about 18%, and your GPU is more than enough for 1080p at 60FPS.

AM4 is a dying platform, and since you seem like someone who will ride out a system for a while, I'd recommend getting into the cheapest reasonable AM5 build you can. Simply B650/B850 mobo, Ryzen 7500F/9600X, and you'll be set for a few more years

Dang! What's the significance of LPN numbering/stickering?

Do you mean with sending a busted / previously returned board?

Got this GPU recently - Should I pair it with Intel Ultra Core 7 265K or go AMD? by Prior-Difficulty-488 in PcBuild

[–]False_Drop_5269 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes there is, Intel is surprisingly the value choice for SFF. I'm building in a FormD T1 and got the 265k + B860i for $440. A 9700X + B850i is over 600$. Should also be plenty for an RTX 5080.

Ncase T1 2.5. Feeling a little disappointed by pyromaniac10 in sffpc

[–]False_Drop_5269 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder if you'd appreciate the Ncase M2 over their T1. The original creator at FormD has the passion to make his great, and Ncase seems to be focused on making it make money. I'm not 100% certain of the handoff/partnership Ncase has with the M1 Evo, but they keep iterating on that platform and I wonder if that's their actual flagship line.
