It is not simply a matter of upgrade or wait either. Even if you decide to upgrade it is "should I buy the newest gen or the latest one which is cheaper and like 1-2% worse in performance."
I'm very interested in buying these drives just because they're packaged properly I have purchased dozens of drives from different sellers on Amazon and they always come the same way the hard drive in those foil bags with a plastic end cap on each end and then a cardboard box that is it no bubble wrap and I know that Amazon throws these things I had five bad ones in a row ones that clearly had crashed horribly making a grinding sound like you were running a chainsaw through your car I just want to receive some that are damaged already
I hope you guys are ok! I really wish you could make a video telling us where you went and what happened. I genuinely am worried about you guys and hope you are all well. I watched you guys since like 2016 and i really appreciate all the hard work and time you put into your videos. I learned so much from you and really miss watching you guys live. Please let us know, also over on reddit alot of people are worried about you guys too on the pcmr subreddit. thanks for the many years of unique and informative content.
Honestly, if I had 3700 Ryzen, I would upgrade to Ryzen 9 5950x, and calmly wait for 32 core AMD chip to come out In most cases you are sitting on older GPU if you have 3700 Ryzen OR I would wait for 9000 series, and that would be a significant boost to performance, but you are paying for motherboard, DDR5, cpu
Nice. Mine looks the same with the same specs, mine has an asrock motherboard, with an M.2 nvme ssd slot on the motherboard. Mine came with a 480 Samsung ssd, and a 2tb sata storage hard drive and an nvidia gtx 1660 ti video card. Also, mine had the 3 front fans RGB with kalideoscope colors and a color changing button on the case. Mine was only $199 and $50 shipping. Ebay seller had one in mint. condt. that he got in a storage locker he won a bid on. Seller only knew his smart phone and did not want the pc, so he sold it to me. He had just posted the selling ad on ebay and i got it fast.
These days the cost savings can be even higher - I've found that for the Exos 14 TB enterprise drives I'm running, I can buy 2 of the refurb drives for the price of one new drive. Even IF the refurbs are marginally more likely to fail than new drives, it is still so much more efficient to use refurbs. Heck, if you need 6 drives, you can buy 8 for less than the price of 6 and have 2 hot spares available. If you're running some type of NAS then refurbs are a no-brainer to me.
Can someone explain me Does cpu make difference in graphic performance like smoothening, with same other specs. I have GPU 6600 8Gb. Cpu ryzen 5 3600. Ram DDR4 8 gb. THANKS.
if the intel i5 13600k had good 1% lows than amd r5 7600x in gaming with rtx 4070 or rx 7800xt then sir please tell the right answer...then should me buy intel or amd.. God bless you 💞💞💞 sir you and your family keep always happy..👫
@TechDeals It turned out to be a good and informative story, thx )) I just watched all 3 parts. There is one remark: you forgot about one Intel platform, I call it the Super HEDT platform, where the main hero is the Xeon 3175X and three motherboards for enthusiasts from Evga, Asus and Gigabyte. I’m just writing this post from a similar config. There will be a reason to add this to the 4th part, after waiting for the LGA4677 refresh ;)
Got great deal for full PC - £425 with delivery for used 11700K B560i platform and will replace my 5800X X570 platform. I know it’s a side grade but I’m looking forward for Intel experience. Both systems are same performance level.
You talked for 13 minutes to finally show us a small clip of fan noise when standing completely still in an isolated environment. Test the thing. Run around, Drive around? Do... anything. So we can hear the differences in the fans. Sheesh.
Thanks a lot for the video, im just buying a 5600x on a similar setup, and was wondering if the extra 60% for 3600 will be worth, but after all the difference is less than 5% or even 1% so ill just go for solid stable 3200. Cheers
The r7 5800x3d is 600 dollars in New Zeakand. And I would need a cooler. 300 new for a 5700x. It's a b450m save ya money for the new platform like he says. Might get a second hand 5700x
I'm not tolerant of a post truth society. PC speakers are over priced and don't deliver. Some of them have fake tweeters. That's against the law of Tom Scholz. A 5.1 set of Altec Lansing PC speakers sound right, Very difficult to find these days. If you have 5.1 speakers and have 7.1 capability on your PC you can do almost anything you want as far as side channels. The passive 3 way indoor outdoor 400watt speakers fit that purpose if you're thinking in terms of 120Watt output and wish to avoid ground loop.
Glad to know I made the right decision year ago. What makes me buy crucial is not only the price but Samsung stopped with their amazing warranty. My circulars have been tested with video editing and gaming. It’s the only one I buy now a days
Hearing ya complain about windows 10 all these years ago I wonder how ya feel about Windows 11 Literally taking pictures of your screen every 5 seconds or the other Privacy Concerns with it.... Coming soon to a PC Near you.
I need to connect 2laptops on same external monitor. Lenovo g50 80 and hp ProBook. None of them has a usb c port. Can u recommend which kvm model should I use? Do i need any adaptor? Which one? Kindly suggest. I don't need to transfer data between pcs only need to display on monitor one at a time and control the displayed system with same keyboard mouse.
I didn't know they built in the 'zeroing,' that's clever. I always used 2-3 steps, including DBAN. Prior to DBAN, I had deleted, formatted, installed new OS and was still able to do data recovery and retrieve stuff! That was like the XP days. Any heartburn over SSDs?
