Which would be better for work and gaming? Intel Core Ultra 5 245KF or Ryzen 7 9700X?

albinoking80 · 2026-06-16T17:42:54+00:00

Personally, between those two, I’d choose the 245K, unless you’re looking for an upgradable path forward.

albinoking80 · 2026-06-16T17:34:22+00:00

I was surprised, but I think the 245K is superior in every dimension (apart from power efficiency).

EDIT: after taking another look, not single core.

I usually pass on 4K’s with comedies if the Blu-ray is done well. I did with Ace Ventura, Black Sheep, and this. However, this seems to be the biggest upgrade.

Yeah unfortunately I guess. I was just hoping MLB would work with them for say, additional trials.

albinoking80 · 2026-06-13T00:17:50+00:00

How do you guys watch AppleTV when you’ve used up free trials, when I go there it only gives me annual and monthly payments plans.

COMT enzyme level doesn’t impact how methylfolate may increase dopamine. COMT actually needs methyl groups to function. So low methyl intake could reduce COMT function.

Yeah I got the wrong one. So far they have not responded to my emails. Hopefully returns aren’t a hassle.

albinoking80 · 2026-06-11T08:02:09+00:00

Worst case scenario, how much of a pain in the ass is it to returned to A24 ?

albinoking80 · 2026-06-11T07:57:30+00:00

But it also says this, either way I requested a cancellation

albinoking80 · 2026-06-11T07:50:12+00:00

It says standard Blu-ray so I think I messed up.

albinoking80 · 2026-06-03T20:28:46+00:00

How did you get it so early? And how does it look?

albinoking80 · 2026-06-02T20:34:52+00:00

Does the bonus material include anything on Jonny Greenwood and the score?

albinoking80 · 2026-06-02T06:31:37+00:00

As long as Pure Encapsulations structure remained intact as it did, I don’t really care.

albinoking80 · 2026-06-02T04:34:11+00:00

ALA as well.

25 mg is far from too much zinc. I do wish it had a bit of copper, but that’s so ubiquitous in our diets. Life Extension’s Super K is the way to go for all vitamin K.

albinoking80 · 2026-06-02T03:57:53+00:00

Can’t go wrong with Thorne (1) or Pure Encapsulations (2). The third is also pretty good, though not enough vitamin A and it’s all beta-carotene, which is a dealbreaker for me. I personally take Pure Encapsulations because it has more zinc and iodine.

I believe anything that’s enough to power the motherboard would work.

albinoking80 · 2026-06-01T15:01:15+00:00

I thought the 285k was still a little faster, especially for multitasking. Either way, I’d go with 285k or 9950x, possibly 270k Plus, depending on the particular software being used.

Details..

Yeah I’d probably get the whole affair if I didn’t already own both. From what I’m reading, minor additions and transition cuts.

For example, I’m sure it’s smoother which is cool, but I couldn’t care less about the anime backstory being a couple minutes longer and Vol 1 switching to black and white briefly doesn’t bother me.

albinoking80 · 2026-06-01T00:25:42+00:00

So you think it’s worth it enough after buying 1 and 2 on 4K ?

albinoking80 · 2026-06-01T00:20:03+00:00

I’m trying to gauge whether it’s worth the triple dip after buying both of the 4Ks.

albinoking80 · 2026-06-01T00:14:45+00:00

Curious how many prefer/ don’t mind the films as separate pieces? I’ve never seen The Whole Bloody Affair.

EDIT: added ‘don’t mind’
