Hi y’all, i used to be so prolific at the whole pc building thing. but now i’m out of the game with age and not buying stuff in a while. so here’s my question:...
Really depends what you have now and what you are looking to achieve. The “core 3” i call it, are mobo, ram, and cpu that needs to be generationally compatible. These tend to but not always be purchased at the same time.
If you are keeping your C drive, then no, you dont have to reinstall everythimg. Windows licensing is weird now. I think its supposed to be transferrable if you disable the previous computer since it is account bound. Someone else will need you comment on that. That is a ‘legit’ license issue. Most other software wont care if your cpu or mobo changes.
If windows is installed on a harddrive and not an ssd, then i would strongly reccomend you do a fresh install on a new ssd. You can plug in your old drive after install to transfer files. Then wipe it and use as storage.
As long as you pick a compatible mobo. Theres not really any difference between them for most people. Mostly just IO differences.
Just switched from Plex… but might be going back lol. Http:/localhost :8097 works on my PC where my JF server is hosted. But I can’t connect on any other devices on the same network. What I have tried:...
Iirc, AMD was slower in the past for proper sensor support on their platforms but that was all. I don’t think that is an issue anymore.
Seems like Intel features keep getting rejected from the kernel from what i remember via Phoronix because of bad quality. (The infield validation is what im thinking about at the moment)
All in all, no difference for cpu side of things for current gen afaik.
The big one with compatibility is gpu and thunderbolt i believe
Got a 3070 off ebay. It runs really hot touching 102 at times for hotspot. I took it out to realize there there is a slight warp to the pcb which is enough to lift the cooler off the die....
Didnt find anything stuck. Was thinking of maybe some paper washers to lift the left so i can crank down on the right or something. But i was expecting that metal ring to help with that.
Star Citizen subreddit has gone private. I'm surprised there are so few in the Lemmy community. Is there another defacto option I missed during the chaos?
Were you using the app to subscribe? I noticed last night that the ones I made from the app got stuck in pending and when i got on the browser it worked. I forgot to try this community however.
