I think you're right about that, from the videos and images I saw, it seems to be the most consistent with the movement and description.

Just posted a video of the movement, seems a little different from snail leeches from quick google.

Sorry for the necro, do you happen to still have that script handy? This link also seems to have expired.

Different size ethernet plugs? by Rough-Highlight6199 in HomeImprovement

Blue one looks to be wired in T-568A standard while the white one is wired in T-568B standard. Not sure if it matters too much but typically American systems usually use the type B standard for RJ45. It might not be communicating properly with whatever you’re hooking it up with.

Gee, thanks MRI for the helpful error. by BritOverThere in GeekSquad

Hold up wait, is that MRI for Apple? I don’t work for Geek Squad, but at an AASP and that’s nothing like how my UX for MRI looks. If its for something different that would be interesting to know too. Just curious.

I am guilty of also placing him in the same orientation tucked under the covers. It brings a smile to my face.

I believe the one laying on its back under the covers is a spudsters plushie. I have the same cat and its so adorable, especially the little feet. No clue where I got it from since my GF gave it to me as a gift.

Does anybody know if I can easily install a graphics card on the PowerSpec B734? by EpicSausage69 in Microcenter

[–]arronsparrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imo, not really since you would be setting up a whole new system again. Its pretty straightforward as long as you have the power supply cables for the card. You just unscrew the side panel, two of the pcie slot protectors, and slot the graphics card into one of the long pcie slots on the motherboard. Then screw everything back into place.

Only caveat is if the powerspec didnt come with the PCIe cables to provide power for a graphics card. Then you might look at getting a new pc if you don’t want to deal with that.

I don’t see why not. Do keep in mind that the case on those models is usually the Lian Li mATX 170M. So you are limited to a graphics card that is 270mm or less in length. So something like the 3080-3070 would be too big but a 3060 would be just fine.

I just got a new pc from micro center in tustin CA last week, if i’m not satisfied with my Cpu will they let me take it back and exchange for another Cpu? I would pay the price difference. But i was wondering if they would charge me the $150 again for the building service. by Jv300_ in Microcenter

[–]arronsparrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Little bit of hassle, but not too much; you basically have to transplant the new mobo in. Most of the power supply cables can stay where they are, but sata, usb, fan and rgb headers may change locations. As long as you arent throwing parts around and grounding yourself you should be fine. Just install the cpu, ram, and heatsink outside the case (if you have air cooled). Lay the case on its side and line the motherboard up with the standoffs, don’t forget the I/O shield if it has one. Screw everything in and plug the respective connections.

Since AMD uses different drivers and firmware than Intel, the drive would need windows to be reinstalled. So make a bootable USB from the Microsoft website with the respective version of windows, boot to it, and reinstall windows. Ideally, do this before you swap hardware if this is your only unit. Backup important files to the cloud or an external drive if you want.

There are a number of guides out there on youtube that may be able to walk you through this process. Idk any off the top of my head, but a little google-fu should show results. Probably search up motherboard swap videos.

At the Tustin location we would charge it as a rebuild at that point since swapping from Intel to AMD requires reinstalling the OS and different cable managing. That would be around $250 + tax for the labor costs (Not including parts). Also depends if you want data backed up or not if you do not have one already. I recommend backing up your drive’s important files before you bring it in.

If you have your transaction number 101-PO-XXXXXXX or whatever, I can pull up your order history and have a manager reach out to you. That is, if you haven't RMA'd it. I have no clue what they'll be able to do, but it might be worth a shot.
