    Desktop 2.0 Amp Suggestions for gutted Swan M200MKII's

    Well, its been a fun run for my Swan M200 MK II's. Got them in or around 2009 and the amp has finally given up the ghost, doesn't respond to any audio source and there really aren't any options to adjust as its pretty basic. I've gutted the amp out of the one speaker and wired up the internal...

    Genshin Impact

    Anyone playing? Turns out the game is awesome and I'm 30ish hours in, still not finished the story and haven't felt the need to spend any money at all. My plan was if I ever got to that point I'd ditch it but so far I'm pleasantly surprised. Real BoTW vibes but the multi character system and...

    Going from Intel to AMD without reinstalling Windows 10

    It was incredible how easy and seamless that was. Went from a 4690k system (pushing 5 years old) to a new R7 2700X.
