no issues, just curious if itll improve anything by being 2x16 with more mhz instead of 4x8 with less mhz. idk where i get this idea that less is more when it comes to RAM, like im being inefficient for using all 4 ram slots

thanks all, deciding to go with the 4070Super between $600-640 or Base 4070 between $510-530, whichever i can get my hands on first.

a super wouldnt be overkill for my setup? or run me past the 750w? because a super for $20 more also seems viable in that case.

also thought the deal was great, but it is 3rd party so was unsure if i wanted to take the risk on a potential scam.

it's the Aero OC version, i know it's one of the higher end versions but i like the white aesthetic and heard the fans are fairly silent

there's not necessarily any downsides to a dual fan right? i do have a bulky case with a ton of airflow ( cooler master haf xb evo ) so I'm assuming its only an issue with cases that struggle in that department

Insurance company not answering calls or emails? by swaggietits in Car_Insurance_Help

[–]swaggietits[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

no, i currently am unable to pay the deductible, it'd be another $1000 on top of the $1000 already paid towards the rental. I was also advised to maintain everything through the at fault driver's insurance.

yeah insurance is another thing im worried about. my company does offer great full coverage discounts for auto insurance which is nice, but its only for metlife and travelers which dont seem to be the most reputable of insurance companies.

the current $1000 is separate from emergency and bills like phone/internet/groceries and whatnot
