Bought a pack of 80-min CD-Rs. :)

View attachment 448134
I've bought three more packs of these branded CD-Rs. They have to be the most reliable discs I have ever used, and it saves me money from buying 10 CMC pro discs that costs more.

The ATIP confirms that they're Taiyo Yuden branded. :D
 
Intel claim this issue can be sorted with a microcode update now. https://www.anandtech.com/show/2148...bility-faults-voltage-microcode-fix-in-august

But Intel also claimed it was all the motherboard manufacturers at fault months ago and bios updates were eventually released, https://www.tomshardware.com/pc-com...t-about-cpu-crashes-blames-motherboard-makers

and yet here we are with it's now a "microcode issue" instead, so who knows if it will sort it and if it does, if there will be any performance impact to boost clocks.

Hello my fine Mr. Armadillo! I've been purchasing GIGABYTE MOTHERBOARDS since 2003. I love their attention to detlail and as always UltraDurable. Currently I am rocking an X299 Designare EX. I've never had one issue with it, and no BSOD. NEVER. Anyway, thanks for spilling the beans on these two links, I'll look into them. :)

Picked this up a few weeks ago but just started reading it this week!



Read the series like five times through already and it’s one of my favourite in terms of manga. Wanted to buy it a few times but it was always out of stock, so I ended up grabbing a Japanese set. When I saw the English set available I jumped at it.

Supposed to be like £120 but I saw an independent book site selling it for £90, with a further discount for first time buyers. Only came to £75 in the end!
 
My older sister went home early at 9AM due to their IT systems down.

I was asked if I want to go to Dealz4Less since they have new stuffs on stock for $15, so I said yes. And then saw the 8Bitdo controller on the pile not opened, while Geats was underneath the rest of the boxes so I did my damnest to get it out. Box was beaten at the side yet otherwise, the rest of the contents are a-okay.

The arcade stick is at the shelf for $17. Both peripherals work fine after testing them (prior to this post) on a couple of games. Contents are complete albeit the top of the arcade box got torn off.

Don't mind the llama sticker, bought it on JoAnn's for myself :P

Ordered some light blue(more like teal) cable extensions and a 1tb silicon power ud90 for the pc I'm building.

Show us what you've got so far! There is an immense sense of accomplishment when you build your first PC, and then your second PC, and then your blah blah blah. There's nothing quite like it, especially when you boot it up for the first time. Now, all that money you spent on the case, power supply, mobo, GPU, CPU, cooling device and of course. LIGHTS. Lots of lighting for your hard-earned cash!!!

I've been having hot flashes so I purchased one of these cool gel masks. Apparently you just throw it in the freezer and it's supposed to cool you down. Looks funny but also may help.

This month I managed to snatch a decent CRT

And with that in mind I decided to get the remaining things for the whole setup! Since I'd like to keep the 6th gen consoles + Wii + Saturn plugged in I went for some shopping and bought a power strip, an extender just in case and an ethernet cable so I could plug either the DreamPi or the OG Xbox.

I also ordered two shelves and I still need to move all those boxes elsewhere, but I'm sure that I can find a place for everything

The duality of man... Built to last vs. Needs replacing after 3 years :unsure:
Built to take a beating. But the abuse was emotional.
