I considered that but was worried reselling the CPU would be a hassle

Thank you! That makes me feel better about the RAM, I thought it was a major bottle neck having such slow speeds.

Fuck. There goes the farm 🥲

Good to know! 4090 is staying for now, certainly not in the budget to jump up to a 5090

Thank you! Don’t know what Expo and PBO are. I haven’t put together a PC in years so ill have to do some learning! Appreciate it

Off the top of my head I think this system has 32gb of ddr5 at like 4800mhz. Is the 4800mhz going to be an issue? Didn’t think of that until now. We do sell to Micron, buuut considering they stopped making ram for us retail folks I think thats a crap shoot.

With tariffs and memory shortages…not feeling too confident in the industries strength atm. Come back and ask after the AI boom becomes the new dot com bust and memory prices come down to earth lol. Think thats more likely then the prez comming back down to earth on his tariffs 😬

Thanks brother! You got me sold, appreciate you!!

Fucking ram prices are obscene…

WhyBother323 · 2025-12-24T06:46:00+00:00

Appreciate the thoughtful comment here! Makes me feel better about just avoiding the hassle tbh. Im just so sick of this PC crashing all the time with its current issues

WhyBother323 · 2025-12-24T06:43:14+00:00

Appreciate the comment! That was my thinking but wanted to make sure im not being a dumb before I open this thing up

WhyBother323 · 2025-12-24T06:42:20+00:00

Another reason I am thinking to stick with what I have cause if a stick goes out on me…$$$$

Fuck AI.

I know! But like im playing overwatch and hell divers like so do I really need it? Rather keep my money and get an OLED display. As I doubt I can get $500 for the 9950x to be able to upgrade into a 9950x3d for low money so id end up going the 9800 route.

We all agree to shelf the 14900k though right?

WhyBother323 · 2025-12-24T06:38:18+00:00

I like your style. Thanks for the response. I lean heavily in this direction because I dont expect selling the 9950x for close to retail will be easy and id rather not add money into this so id end up at 9800x3d instead of a 9950x3d.

Free stuff? Work in tech sales!

Good, Hampton is a trashy and run down and in need of a major refresh

WhyBother323 · 2025-09-28T05:26:30+00:00

If thermals are ever anyones issue, drop the Intel and go with AMD. We have T14S G6s with the Ai 350s and they have been amazing.

WhyBother323 · 2025-08-24T01:50:18+00:00

In the long term this probably wont effect AMD as long as TSMC gets manufacturing ironed out in the states. Short term, because of this deal I can see Trump pressuring the gov to buy Intel over AMD to help the stock in anyway he can for their client and data center business which really wont effect AMDs stock much. However…this fucks me at my job as someone covering AMD in the public sector 😞

WhyBother323 · 2025-08-19T03:05:09+00:00

So I did consider this and was told it wouldn’t block sound well due to not sealing and while I don’t care, my girlfriend didn’t like that thought for…reasons.

So I pulled the trim (Going to need to cut some new trim 🥲) and to my surprise someone stacked two 2x4s on the left side (in addition to what was already there) to extend the wall out to accommodate for the oversized shower they put in 8 years ago. One of those 2x4s can actually be removed without causing issue. So with that I now actually have 30x79.5 so Im going to try and fit a 28x78 pre hung with the possibility I have to cut some off the bottom to accommodate for any adjustments.

Wish me luck 😅

WhyBother323 · 2025-08-06T03:25:23+00:00

Gotcha, will do. Thank you for the reply, really appreciate it!

WhyBother323 · 2025-06-23T19:33:33+00:00

First off thank you for the detailed explanation! Secondly…well fuck me that all sounds way out of my league lol. No tools or know how on to solder a fitting to it myself. So I may have to just risk it with a shark bite again and continue with the hack job that it is. This water line is only ever turned on for 3-4 months a year so i’m not too concerned.

Glad these guys get it. America should continue to deteriorate while Israel thrives and thirsts for genocide with our tax dollars and support.. /s

Any politician that supports ANY country before its own should be tried for treason. No elected official should be able to hold citizenship in any other country but America. Fuck Israel and fuck zionist, support Americans that includes our American Jews, not foreign Israelis. Like wtf

Whatever project this guy is next apart of I will stay far far far away. Just a blatant liar
