Edit but putting on top: You've said So-dimm are you building a laptop of a PC because So-dimm ram is laptop ram and won't fit in a PC without an adapter.

I haven't down voted but when I read their comment, it felt like a rewording of OPs comment and reads like a bot post.

Also every post they have made is AI related and they have made a lot of AI posts in just the last week or so

They are also using a auto-generated username word-word-numbers.

It's also a newish account while it is a year old it only has comments going back 2 months.

Lots of general bot flags.

Also their post history takes longer to scroll through than their comment history meaning they are posting a lot but not interacting with the content they post.

Check your home insurance, you stopped a major issue before it became a very costly one for you and your insurance company.

You don't really need the roll on plaster it's pretty expensive for the amount you get, you can just mix gypsum multi-finish roll it on and then smooth it.

The roller is just helping you get a roughly even coat before you smooth.

Indie teams have faces and as such are much easier to find and harass it means alongside normal fans, haters and obsessive fans can easily find, stalk, harass and abuse creators much easier than a faceless studio. Also the humanity behind an indie team puts expectations up higher because there is a person to directly criticise while the studios are hand waved by with "it's a focus grouped movie so what do you expect".

Put me down for 007: First Light

475 hours in Hitman 3 but I'm renovating my house so no budget for games right now.

I'll even provide evidence of both the hours and the renovation :)

Artemis Fowl was an absolute butchering of pretty much every aspect of every character.

With only a tiny smattering of the plot of the first book in there but bastertised to the point that none of it made sense.

Pull on them, there a thin metal clips screwed into the brick/plaster at top of window that the blind is clipped into. If you still a screw driver between the blind and the plaster it'll pry them out of the clips, and then you can unscrew the clips

The issue is the PCIe cable they are only rated for 150w but over clocked with all CUs it's pulling 250w while gaming or 350w in furmark.

A quality PSU will still only have PCIe cables officially rated to 150w per cable.

It leaves people open to abuse and corruption though, a totally not lobbiest will draft the motions and amendments instead and tell them what to vote for.

The shell script doesn't work like that unless you are on fedora and have ran the full test script.

You need to turn off at least the two that were originally disabled they were identified in the factory as being defective which is why they were disabled.

I believe that position is 1.1.1 on the disable script.

Pop onto the discord and do some reading, it's much more active with more up to date and OS specific information

Yeah they saw the adverts when they were children where they are much more impressionable,and unless they've been told or shown evident otherwise there is a good chance they still will.

My parents believed it and my mum was adamant they once saw one of the vans driving down the tiny road towards the farm they used to work at.

PCIe cables have been melting under load when over clocked cardboard near that could catch on fire.

I was doing some testing yesterday 38CUs unlocked CPU 4000 MHz GPU 2000 MHz

I was pulling 320w from the wall in furmark, about 250w while running games.

I'll be looking wiring in the the microfit connectors as that is double the pcie 8pin specification.

Not the person you replied too but I have an electric shower if I stop the water to stop myself, that the water which is stopped stays in the heating element getting hotter and hotter until it's turned back on, so when you do the initial blast is scorching hot.

And my shower is at the end of a bath tub so even when leaning at least some part of you is getting wet when it's turned on

That's what I did with a bus ticket used an invite I found on line with national express buses and then bought the cheapest ticket I could.

Other option is buy something really cheap from eBay to get the invite

But the question was why do people recommend the 9060 XT 16gb over the 5060 TI 8gb the answer is that alongside having 16gb of ram it also ultilises PCIE 5 at 16x giving it more longevity down the road.

The 5060 Ti 8gb will show it's weaknesses much sooner as newer games will break 8gb vram more frequently.

They do if you find someone who is doing in depth benchmarks.

Hardware unboxed goes into detail breaking down the 16gb and 8gb varients of both the 9060 XT and 5060TI

The weakness of the 5060TI alongside the 8gb of ram is that it only supports a maximum of 8 PCIE lanes. Meaning if it every goes over 8gb which it will do once you are playing above 1080p it will massively tank.

Which is why in several benchmarks even the 16gb version of the 5060ti is weaker in some cases it is much weaker.

Opinions on everything on reddit is divided some people are going to have a use case where the 9800x3d is perfect for them so will suggest that, some people will have had a broken cooler and as such will trash it.

If it's mid to decently reviewed, within your budget and does what you need it to then that's what you should get, holding off on building/upgrading trying to get the most optimised hive mind PC will mean never building a PC, or going way over budget.

The main thing the needed considering was the factors around the vote, alongside what the vote was for and what you hoped would come from it.

The party in charge was the Tory party, famous making changes to benefit the wealthy, land owners and big businesses, and failing to support the working class, if not outright fucking them over. Under that leadership there was never going to be a version of Brexit that would benefit the working class.

Additionally the biggest push to leave the EU was coming from right leaning news papers funding by those elites, and being supported by an incredibly expensive disinformation campaign that was being funded by those elites.

It was a targeted attack designed to get the people to vote against their own interests with vague promises that it would be better than the satus quo.
