    A white nationalist, spouting Tucker Carlson's "white replacement theory" commits mass shooting in black neighborhood in Buffalo NY

    Everybody talks about hatred when attributing motives to these insecure immature boobs who have confused gamer culture, political pandering for profit and going out in a blaze of glory. Gamer culture - you can do anything with the right equipment and support gear. He was pretty well setup; but...

    I Updated my Radeon Adrenaline Drivers and Now my PC is Borked at the desktop

    The AMD Adrenalin induced failure appears to be resolved. Adrenalin 21.5.1 appears to work, I simply Alt-R 'd to open the Adrenalin Control Panel. Opened the Home tab. Expanded the Software and Driver tab. Clicked the check for updates. Clicked Download and Install. AND, waited in dread for the...

    I Updated my Radeon Adrenaline Drivers and Now my PC is Borked at the desktop

    That would kinda defeat the purpose of all this striving. Everything (except RealTEK HD audio) is working at this time with Adrenaline 21.3.2. I've tested using a Roccat Juke USB audio solution. I think I'll buy another one to use until I decide on a better audio option. I fail to...

    I Updated my Radeon Adrenaline Drivers and Now my PC is Borked at the desktop

    Not to worry. I installed bad drivers from the AMD Adrenaline pages at least three times. Guru3D was good for one install but no repeats. Fortunately at least one site was able to provide a good installation of 21.3.2. That's what annoys me the most. AMD assured me that 21.4.1 is WHQL tested...

    I Updated my Radeon Adrenaline Drivers and Now my PC is Borked at the desktop

    This is an attempt to share how I was able to resolve the problem. I found my installation thumb drive and got a toe hold on making windows work again. All those promises about fixing your Windows installation turned out to be marketing. 1. I could not save my previous installation because the...

    I Updated my Radeon Adrenaline Drivers and Now my PC is Borked at the desktop

    I think that I've been to that screen; but, I'll try again when I'm calmer and I have read around the issues some more. I tried a remove updates link; but, it said it could not find what it needed. It is really stressing me out that my PC can't get beyond the PE, pre-installation environment.

    Threadripper 1900X vs 1800X

    NVME RAID will be supported soon. Think two, or three, Samsung 960 Pro 512mb NVME M.2 PCIe x4 drives in one RAID striped array. Storage warp drive (?), I don't know. It has not been done in public yet. Update: It has kinda been done in public. der8auer has proven his insane credentials...

    Threadripper 1900X vs 1800X

    The choice between Ryzen lower end CPUs and a 1900 should be driven by what you want to hook up to your CPU. Ryzen R3, R5 and R7 CPUs support 24 PCIe Lanes direct to the CPU. Let's break it out for best performance: One 16x Video card, suitable for anything from basic desktop apps and...

    Mortgage Lender

    Good hunting. 740 FICO should help a lot. May I suggest looking at new construction. I lucked out while home shopping during the Great Recession. Other buyers were "stealing" all the properties that I wanted; OR, the sellers were offering seriously screwed up sales. Then, after walking thru a...

    Does anyone know a Good forum for people considering Bankruptcy?

    Alt.Bankruptcy was once a usable forum with honest info. Sorry that I looked now. I saw no porn, but not much useful info either. Suggestions to seek legal counsel are appreciated. I have spoken with a professional consumer bankruptcy attorney of good reputation. He seems to have his hands...

    PSA: TigerDirect reincarnated as B2B storefront, don't bother browsing!

    Never mind. I went into Global Computer and the virtual shelves are virtually empty. The following info is probably useless. I even got the state wrong. The remaining web pages claim NJ as home. But, there is no store closing announcement. More signs of unprofessional work style and...

    GIGABYTE GA-EP45-UD3P - Memory Help???

    I'm thinking about this board too. I joined Gigabyte's tech support forum and persuaded them to tell me what they used to proof-test 16GB capability. They finally admitted "Our team has tested Samsung M378T5263AZ3-CF7 DDR2 800 4GB X 4 on this board." So, I think PC6400 is safe for up to...

    Out of Towner Needs Help with LAX Public Transit

    You really don't wanna know. Buh-ut, it starts with politeness and respect; and, continues past the fact that Pilipino is not even close to a third language here in the good ole USA. AND, one way to Florida from Manila is insanely expensive. One way to LA is a bargain; even after including...

    MSI K8N Neo4 nForce4 Ultra Socket 939

    I hope you meant DDR333 aka PC2700. DDR2 533 would be a no go. SDRAM, 168-pins; DDR, 184-pins; DDR2, 240-pins. When all else fails, RTFM. "... eight memory banks DDR 266/333/400, using four 184-pin DDR DIMMs." It seems to work well with the Kingston and Ultra PC3200 memory that I have...

    PNY 7900GS $150 after Rebate after Price Match

    BestBuy has the PNY 7900GS on sale for $179.99 OTD. CompUSA has the same card for $209.99 with a $30 PNY MIR. Extremely smooth dealers may be able to get an additional $20 off because CompUSA describes their deal as a $20 instant rebate + the $30 MIR. Too late for me. My local BB is...

    Kingston HyperX 2-3-2-6 2x1gb PC3200: $160

    The site is running too slow to checkout. I keep timing out. Also, substituting "SAVEBIG" for "HYPERX" on the sale specials links works on other HYPERX products. A stick of 512MB PC3200 HyperX is $42 as a HYPERX promo and $39 as a SAVEBIG promo.

    Thank you to bloodugly for replying with the KVR400X64C3A/512 UPC (in my other thread). KVR400/512R is a different UPC. So, there is no valid $16.90 MIR option at this time.

    Thanks Elph. This thread won't be very lively until the new deal expires 12/23/2006. OR, until someone posts the UPC of the CL3 memory from this thread. New deal Part Number KVR400/512R, probably a retail package. Old deal Part Number KVR400X64C3A/512. The A after the C3 means DDR400...
