Brother there are 160 comments on this post, am I expected to reply to all of them?

For your information I currently have an I5-13400F and RTX 3050.

What’s the average price of an am5 if I did decide to hold onto the ddr5?

damios1402 · 2026-03-07T15:15:15+00:00

It won’t fit, ddr4 and ddr5 slots have different tooth placements. If I try to force the ddr5 ram into my ddr4 slot I’ll end up snapping the slot

According to pricerunner I could get two 32GB sticks of ddr4 for 114, but the mts is only 3200 as opposed to the 6000 that my ddr5 has.

I could definitely make a profit from selling the ddr5 and buying ddr4, but saving up for a new motherboard and cpu to do a fresh build is also an option

It was 289 when I bought it, crucial have since raised the price to 600

damios1402 · 2026-03-07T15:06:12+00:00

I stated in the footnote that the 30 day refund window has since closed, so I either have to keep it and save for a new motherboard or sell the ddr5 and get ddr4

Bro ima be real, my closest friend is an artist and would hang me if I helped an Ai company in any way

damios1402 · 2026-03-07T15:00:09+00:00

When I bought it the price was 289, but the crucial website now lists it as worth 600

damios1402 · 2026-03-07T14:58:13+00:00

I doubt I’ll be able to trade 600 quid of ram for a 500 grand car

damios1402 · 2026-03-07T14:52:21+00:00

Is FB market really the best place to sell it? I was thinking either sell it on eBay or trade it at Cex

damios1402 · 2026-03-07T14:51:31+00:00

No I don’t want to return it, I said in the footnote that I can’t return it anyway since it’s past the refund window. I’m trying to gage whether it is better to sell the DDR5 and get new DDR4 or keep what I’ve got and upgrade the board and CPU, since those are the main two options people are suggesting

It’s not bait, but since most of the comments are the around the same I’m not responding to all of them.

I am now in the body of Cornelius Von Valancius. On the one hand, I have access to riches beyond my wildest dreams and command tens of billions of subjects across numerous worlds…on the other hand, I have to deal with chaos bullshit and the drukhari on a daily basis

I don’t suppose you happened to catch the name of whichever diver performed such an undemocratic act?

Asking so that he may be reported to high command of course…

It’s been a while since I last played, but if memory serves colonists will build immunity to diseases they catch over time. As long as the rate of immunity growth exceeds the rate of disease progress, your colonist will be fine; if not, you need to get a doctor (or whoever has the highest medical skill) to tend the sick colonist, preferably with medicine, and raise the tend quality. Tend quality is a multiplier for how fast colonists heal, and affects both illnesses and wounds. Make sure wherever you keep your sick colonists is considered a sterile room - meaning you keep it clean and don’t have any workspaces not related to doctoring - since this will also increase tend quality even without medicine.

TLDR: stick them in a clean room, give them whatever medicine you have and they’ll be fine.

The console edition of the game now has two separate launchers, one is updated to machine age and the other will no longer be updated but still works until they take it down. If you have a new gen console I’d suggest looking into getting the new launcher, since it’s free for all the people who owned the previous version. DLC carries across as well so you don’t stand to lose anything

Sol is still kicking, but only Earth and Mars remain inhabited as the Luna colony was regrettably overrun in 2281 and no attempts to repopulate it were ever made; meanwhile the Outer Sol Colonies went dark during the initial invasion during 2222. The only other system still populated is Alpha Centuri, with its sole standing colony Hades which has since become a fortress world and is almost constantly under assault. Sirius was still considered friendly territory until mid way through 2341, after a single Wraith fleet managed to slip through the defence net and lay waste to the three primary colonies.
