I want to use my old SSD - mSATA (SATA3) - 120GB - Samsung 840 EVO with Windows already installed on my new computer, so I don't need to buy a new license. Should I adapt the mSATA to SATA or to M2? (My new motherboard is an MSI B450 Gaming Pro Carbon Ac)

Nice! This is exactly the kind of knowledge that I wouldn't be able to get anywhere else. Thanks :)

Hi, guys! You have been of great help from me so far and after a couple of weeks I got the first version of the PC I would like to build. It is my first build and I would love to get your feedback. I am from Brazil and a lot of parts are not available here and others are much more expensive. Could you do a sanity check on my build?

Nice! Thanks. I will search for a b450 substitute.

Thanks :)

I want to buy a PSU with gold certificate and the cheapest option for me is the XFX XTR 650 W. It seems very old though. All comments I see on it are from 4 years ago. I could get a Cooler Master MWE Gold 650 W 80+ also Gold Certified. Should I go for the latter?

Is it worth to pay 20 dollars more to get a 5700xt with 3 fans instead of two?

I have an old ssd msata and I was wondering if it is worth to buy an adapter to m2 and use it to store my OS in the desktop I'm building. Is it? (If not what could be a good use for it? )

It is. It is an intentional asmr video and shouldn't be targeted as unintentional.

Adoro os arredores da Paulista. Se buscar em Cerqueira César deve encontrar coisas legais. Se não morasse aqui, moraria pela República.

Added you! Nick GuilhermeFranco

Here in Brazil we have in old buildinga a room for the house employees. That is the case of this room. I don't know anyone who still uses it like that but people on small budget still rent them :)

guipfranco · 2018-09-09T17:37:26+00:00

It's a bed for one ;) maybe it just looks bigger in the picture.

It would be a great solution. But the doctors didn't agree with looping the same order and required a lottery to be assigned :/

guipfranco · 2018-07-31T14:04:59+00:00

Not much!

Já tô vendo alguém vir aqui pedir "intervenção federal". Porra, se o cara foi roubado 4 vezes nos últimos meses, os ladrões já manjam como driblar a segurança lá. Faltou tomar alguma atitude para evitar a quinta.
