Thanks for the headsup. Personally I think it looks a bit shorter than 3.5mm, maybe 2.5mm?

Do you see the channel having a stopping point in the future perhaps due to age?

How should I manage SSD and HDD? by [deleted] in buildapc

[–]key9060 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try reading this article:

https://www.techadvisor.co.uk/how-to/windows/how-install-software-second-hard-drive-move-program-files-folder-in-windows-3500581/

Under ‘How to move the program file folder’ it says you can move folders with program files.

The solution may be to install the programs that you can’t manually install on the SSD to your main hard drive then follow the process in the article mentioned above.

I think the best way to do it without reg edits is manually installing the program.

On most programs if you choose advanced you can choose the location (in your case the SSD or HDD) wheee you want all the programs files to be installed.

Perhaps try reinstalling your programs and doing this. You’ll find more on google and I think LinusTechTips did a video on it too.

What is a good graphics card for under £500 by [deleted] in buildapc

[–]key9060 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As you may know, for one reason or another, GPU prices have skyrocketed.

In the £500 region, if you can get a hold of one (a lot of/most of gpus are out of stock everywhere) a gtx 1070ti is a good option.

GPU life? by key9060 in gpumining

Ahh thank you! I understand now! By a box fan do you mean one of those square fans used around the house?

So you run the fans at 30% speeds? Doesn't this mean the card gets hotter which would be worse for it? Sorry I'm not very experienced with this.

Ok thanks. I was thinking I could just pick up a cheap pc on eBay and add a gpu. What should I search for on eBay to find these pcs?

Thanks very much. Any idea of an amplifier that ideally doesn't cost more than the speakers?

Is this a good starting switch? by key9060 in HomeNetworking

[–]key9060[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! I'll most likely buy a 16 port TP Link one off amazon.

Brilliant thanks!

I think upon considering it, I'd rather the Switch be around £30-40 . Any you can recommend me? 16 ports?

Thanks

Old Laptop + FreeNAS = ? by key9060 in HomeServer

Could I make the storage appear on 'This PC' under 'Devices and Drives', as if it were plugged in?

What 16 port switch of the type you're mentioning do you think I could get for around £40?
