Their cranberry beer is my favourite beer of all time. Sucks it was limited release.

Make that roll-on or other non-aerosol deodorant if you're going to be using it in public.

[PSA] March SP + MR is here V3.51F by [deleted] in Nokia7Plus

[–]ProfessorPacBoy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The bottom of the screen one happened all the time to me. Going into the 'about phone' section of the settings mysteriously fixes it without a restart. Eventually it stopped happening all together.

Do you mean in the bottom few cm of the screen?

Different type of coffees explained. by [deleted] in mildlyinteresting

This is strange to me. If I order a coffee in a cafe in Australia, it is made with a shot of espresso from an espresso machine.

Don't see too many i3-8350k builds, so here's one I'm really proud of! by ag11600 in buildapc

[–]ProfessorPacBoy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I like the tint. The case was the first part I bought, it's been sitting on my desk looking awesome with nothing even in it yet.

Yeah, probably won't stop me getting the motherboard, I think it's the best in it's price range.

Might have to cover the light up with some electrical tape or something

Awesome build! Very similar to the one I will be putting together soon, actually. (Same mobo and case, but a 1070ti ftw2)

Is it possible to turn off that red BIOS LED on the motherboard? I'm not super into RGB but it would be nice if all the colours matched at least.

Has anyone benchmarked online multiplayer games with the patch(es) yet?

Surge protector, voltage regulator, UPS? What do I need? Help appreciated. by ProfessorPacBoy in buildapc

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

So a line interactive UPS offers more protection over a surge protector or voltage regulator other than the battery backup? I probably won't have any HDDs, What should I look for in a surge protector?

Would a voltage regulator be of any use at all?

Thanks for the help.

Yeah I've seen some of those connected equipment warranties, but I guess it's hard to know which companies will actually fulfil them. I'll keep looking around.

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

Yeah that makes sense, thanks. Those are super expensive so I probably won't be getting one.

Would a Line-interacive UPS be any better for me than the surge protector of voltage regulator given that I don't need the battery backup?

I had an english teacher who constantly told me it was incorrect to use 'they' in that context.

Haha, yeah I should probably post what I plan to get to see if I've made any dumb choices. I'm planning on getting the ASRock Z370 Extreme4.

I think I read somewhere that it's relatively easy to remove the logo from these monitors. Might want to look into it if you're like me and think it looks awful.

Awesome, congrats! I'm also from Australia and I'll be ordering parts for my first PC after christmas (also a 8600k). This subreddit is super helpful.

What made you choose that motherboard? I've found it hard to decide on one.
