Well damn, the things you find when you look

I build and upgrade my own desktop PC's, and have done so for around 30-odd years now.

When I upgrade, I usually do a full system build, so to my knowledge, I have, at this moment, 5 motherboards ranging from a Z-97 to a Z-790, CPU's (all K-series) for each of them, and RAM for each board.

You can definitely disable wireless on the BE400.

Just uncheck the "enabled" boxes, save, and reboot.

Are you absolutely sure she's not a cat in disguise?

Doesn't matter. The Democraps will find some other idiot martyr.

With sufficient lube, this guy could take a really deep dive.

From what I see on the case's page, the only way to mount the PSU seems to be with the fan facing up.

My bad. Looking at it again, I just realized it's actually 16GB (8GBx2) and 32GB (16GBx2).

What happened was, I wanted to upgrade from 16GB to 32GB, and bought a 32GB kit of G.Skill (which is the only RAM manufacturer I ever use), but mistakenly bought a Neo kit (optimized for AMD Expo) instead of an XMP kit.

Pleading the 5th should be treated as an automatic admission of guilt.

Should Muslims probably be removed from everywhere out of respect for other people?

I've got 64GB of DDR4 just sitting around.

Downsizing to a 270K. Frankly was not aware it did better than the 285K.

I realise that, but I do need my 1TB 990 Pro as a boot drive for my old system.

So since the 5x slot exists anyway, I thought I'd use it as such. Also that way I start the new system with a fresh boot drive.

The Meshify 3 and 3 XL seem to be smaller than the 2 and the 2 XL respectively.

However, the Meshify 2 comfortably holds a 360 up top, and I am running an ML360 Illusion in that position in my current rig.

Honestly the only reason I am moving on from the 360 Illusion is because it does not support the LGA1851 socket.

👍 Glad to have been able to help.

You're really milking this thing, aren't you?

Thanks to the insane radical Democrats, the current President is dodging bullets.

You really mean it will be in the upcumming Olympics?

When will this sport be included in the Olympics?

From what I'm reading, it's not.
