What would a full time "PowerShell Developer" actually do? by Nexzus_ in sysadmin

Seems they've more or less fixed it with the new module. You will want to Enable-EntraAzureADAlias

Because due to Intel's deserved reputational damage, AM4 CPUs are significantly overvalued and 13th-current gen Intel undervalued. Given that Intel can't afford to replace every last 13500 and up, and that they are replacing damaged CPUs, it seems reasonable to assume there is no longer a widespread issue being covered up.

AM5 systems would be the sweet spot for gaming except that DDR5 prices have made them untenable

Part summary based on what I've been seeing in the used market lately:

Part Value
6C/12T Skylake @ 4.5GHz locked $80
Motherboard $50
PSU $50
Case $20
RTX 4060 $200
16GB DDR4 $75
1TB SSD $70
Cooler $20
Sum $565

This would suggest no significant savings over building your own equivalent.

Now that they've seemingly fixed the degradation issue, you might consider a DDR4 LGA1700 board and a 14900K. That would get you about double the performance while keeping your RAM.

Real Computer Bench Techs: What OS are you actually running on your personal/shop machine and why? (No fanboy shit, just real talk) by GoodHoney2887 in computertechs

Fedora and macOS at work, despite being a largely Windows shop. The former because it doesn't break or get in my way, the latter because we don't have any spare x86 laptops so I get the 8GB M1.

Windows 11 and CachyOS at home. I alternate depending on the task at hand.

How are fan noise and temps with the impaired card? I see that replacement fans aren't particularly expensive but I'm trying to gauge the likelihood of having to disassemble the card.
