There will not be a choice. Fortunately modern fission reactors are lightyears ahead of where they were when most of the ones we have running now were built. We are going to need a lot of them, not just a handful, dozens and dozens. The fusion guys say we are ten years away, but they have been...

ultimate convenience I have a different term for what this is called, but that is breaking the coc. I guarantee I'll never touch anything HP

Too bad that is a non-starter for all but the very lowest tier PC user. I guess people who know some basic old school working from the prompt will switch to whatever version of linux is running at the time. At least a lot if not most things one likes will still run, maybe. Sure will make a lot...

If the mozilla guys weren't worse jerks than google, and it(FF) had a smaller footprint and was faster, I'd still be using it. I'm not, mainly for the latter two things. I was big into FF for years, along with greasemonkey and the plethora of scripts that ran inside my games and other places.

If it ends up being $100 US, yes, anything over that, then no. The original 3050 was and still is no bueno.

I guess the question is what GPU options do you have to choose from?

This is common in many boards. The tomahawk is mid range, it isn't classed as a creator or high end board and they have a few compromises. My Asrock Nova wifi, same thing. No one should be using that top m.2 slot direct to the CPU if they have a serious GPU in the top pcie slot and they...

The 1080ti is the only one in that list that should be. The rest, nope. There has to be four others that eclipse them.

A quick look on the support page for SSDs does not show that model in there. I see a SK Hynix P31, but no P41. That could be why it doesn't like the first slot that runs straight to the CPU.

As long as they are refresh boards since and for 14th gen you probably can't go wrong. Most if not all have been refined nicely since the first round of Z790 boards. Like any solid state electronics, if any of them make it past a year, they will probably live forever with a clean power supply.

Unless you have a lot of SSDs and HDDs laying around you'll not miss a couple extra conventional SATA ports. Four is enough anyway unless you are a creator, and/or if it is giving you a paycheck it is a no brainer to buy a board made for whatever you desire. Waving off SATA cords and power taps...

I grabbed one of those 1TB P5 plus drives for my new build. Seemed pretty nice for $45 and is about a dozen times faster than anything I've ever owned. (I live well behind the bleeding edge)

I own a printer for anything 'fun' I can think of. I play with toys I could not own when I was a child because they were way out of reach. RC cars, planes, slot car racing, etc. There are a multitude of various things one can print to replicate things that simply are not available anymore any...

Yes, I made the call yesterday on that 12600kf at 150 bucks. I didn't really want to but it was either get it now or go without for a long time(because personal reasons) and it was too good to pass up, for me and my needs. Now I hope to nab a good MB and ram over black Friday.

The hardware was always the real deal, too bad they didn't have decent drivers on debut. That has always been the catch, though.
