I ran an annual LAN party around July 4th holiday every year for the last 20 years until last year - sadly almost everyone has moved away not making it worth the effort now.
It may be a controversial suggestion, but Supreme Commander 2 is a great LAN party game. The single player sucks, but the...
I've had to RMA Asus mainboards 3 times over the last 20 years or so. It's NEVER pleasant, and they are always slow and wanting to fight with you, but I have managed to get a working replacement every time I had to. Every brand will sell you a dud product from time-to-time so you will encounter...
I have a Pixel 7 Pro that I got when I went to Mint Mobile. This replaced a Samsung Note 9 I got from AT&T as a free "upgrade" during the mandatory VoLTE switchover since my Microsoft Lumia 950XL would no longer be supported.
My general experience with Android on the Note 9 was that Android...
When to change the fluid? Easy: You're due for a cleaning if the color of the fluid starts changing AND/OR you start seeing any kind of debris or gunk in the tubing or reservoir (if you have a reservoir). If you start noticing changes in average temperature under average load, you may also have...
I really can't answer to this - conductive is conductive. I have no way of determining the "degree of conductivity" of the regular Koolance fluids; if you spill it on your components, it can destroy them.
There is a non-conductive variety of clear Koolance fluid, but this is not it. The non-conductive coolant is less thermally capable and loses its non-conductivity over time due to picking up impurities from the loop as well.
I still exclusively use Koolance fluids although I now use other brand blocks and radiators. I was All Koolance, All The Time for a good long while.
My old Koolance CPU-380 blocks have been retrofitted to work on AMD AM4 boards and are still going strong in systems to this day (get the AM4...
Keysfan.com can get you either Office 2019 or Office 2021, and the prices are good.
Note: The download is via a direct link to Microsoft, so the software is not "infected."
Man, AS a government employee (Department of Veteran Affairs), I cannot agree with you enough. There is nothing more frustrating than having Congress write pie-in-the-sky aspirational requirements for your department, have them refuse to come even close to adequately funding those requirements...
I would argue that I * personally * feel more secure getting things from sellers here on the [H] as opposed to eBay, all other things being equal. Most folks here seem to have respect for their hardware, and not only take care of it, but pack it well so that it arrives safely. All of this is a...
