These screenshots are from this video: The red highlighted 2666 CL19 is actually 3200 CL16 ram that requires XMP to run at those timings. Since the laptop used doesn't support XMP, it only runs at 2666 CL19. So if the system I'm getting had support for 3200, but didn't support XMP, and I...

This video demonstrates how a seemingly innocuous difference in memory can make a big difference. In this case, a 20% difference in performance caused by using 1xr8 vs 1xr16 memory with the exact same speed and CAS ratings.

It is definitely SODIMM unless they send me something other than the unit in the photos and descriptions. These are micro form factor desktops. HP falls them Mini Desktop, Dell calls them Micro, Lenovo call them Tiny. Some other people call the 1L as they take up about 1 liter of volume...

The chipset is Q370. https://www.hardwarezone.com.sg/feature-intel-h370-h310-q370-b360-and-z370-which-8th-generation-core-chipset-you It's the business class and seems to be the 2nd best out of its peers, only second to the Z370 with OC support. But the motherboard itself is the limiting...

I just purchased a micro form factor system on ebay, and could use some advice on the best memory speed/type to get considering prices. The system is an HP EliteDesk 800 G5 Mini with i7-9700k with Q370 chipset iirc. Obviously I won't be overclocking. The specs on HP's website say DDR4-2666 up...

I didn't keep that great of records, but just used Google maps timeline to check all the time I spent there to do this work. Add in a low estimate for travel time, and the total would be 26 hours. 28 if you include the time I spent at home trying to clean up and get working a barely water...

Edited, how's that?

Viper is right. Every other time I've done work for my friend, I don't charge much. Because my friend is paying, his business is new and still becoming established. But the flood wasn't his fault. It's the fault of the building owner and the insurance is responsible for paying for the work...

Hey ATOT, it's been a long time. I have a question that I think this might be a good place to be answered. What would be a reasonable IT consulting rate to charge a company? Would it normally be hourly or per job? In this case, the location would be Seattle. I have a friend who has a small...

If it is a hypothetical professor without a stated/known sex, then yes, they is a they.

Years ago I spent a bunch of my FSA on first aid kits. Oh, and glucometers and test strips.

RIP :( My condolences to Walter and the rest of the his family.

Where's a thread & poll about threadcount? So I can say: This poll needs moar thread.

I have a standard queen size bed. According to Wikipedia, that is 80" long. I am about 77" tall. Unless I sleep with my head against the wall, generally my feet hang off the edge of the bed. With my feet hanging off the edge of the bed, my sheet pretty consistently gets pulled out within a...
