Newer is always better bro @Mr. Fox++++ Microsoft is very keen to get their hands on your data/privacy. And this is almost as be forced to use their cloud servers. On top they want you to pay for it when you reach the storage limits. Then you have Microsoft checking all files going from your computer to their servers. Needed for training their AI model ? So double win for the Re**rds Microsoft Makes It Harder to Set Up Windows 11 Without an Account Microsoft is closing more loopholes that allowed users to set up Windows 11 with a local account. Users will now be required to connect their PCs to the internet and use a Microsoft account to complete the process.

Thanks bro Fox. Yup, I think so. But was damn happy the house survived. That would be much much worse to fix. Not much damage on the car. Same also for the garage. Only a dent. So I was damn lucky the tree also didn't crush the garage. A perfect landing for the tree😀 The buildings were saved. That's the most important thing. Can't ask for better luck from the lord in heaven.

The weekend has been a disaster here home. The power grid has been down for almost 96 hours due to extreme weather here (Amy). Two freezers (1100 liters) with food destroyed. And my 380 liter refrigerator with spoiled food. Not enough with that... Two of the bigger trees in my yard collapsed. One hit my garage and also one of the cars. We rremoved 2 cars when I saw the big tree started dancing. If not ttey would be crushed they as well. The biggest tree is closer to 1500 kg so quite big but I was damn lucky that it didn't go down the other way and crushed the house. Yep, this weekend has been a mess for me and my fam. The big tree is well over 70 years and have stood fast over several Hurricanes/extreme weather over the years. She couldn't survive the weather this time. So game over for that big beauty. I'll miss you. Same also for all the birds in the summers you have housed 😞 Here's a couple of pictures for the pict lover. I'm sure you know whom you are🙂

LOL. Lately US adm had to subsidise US tech to survive after the tariff mess they created. Saving INTEL as USSR prefered with their awful cooperative system. Now we see the same also for US farmer products. What next? More tech companies gobbled up' I'm, sure the old film actor (RR) is spinning in his grave now. Protectionism will never ever work. Same as with proprietary hardware. A huge failure. Dell the huge US tech company is well known for that. Some love it, I know😒 Stupid's come in different colors. Same as with aRGB. "Orange color" ain't pretty. And was popular color for tech many years ago. Often blended with Black color to make it more pleasant. Ugly is ugly. Not pretty. Yup, I will still keep my "all black" crocs, bro @electrosoft. Same as with my all black PC boxes🙂 Never change the winning horse bro @Rage Set. Never ever. A PC box should always be black. Not with a hint of "Orange" as in the text from Computerbase GUI. China punishes US for Trump's tariffs Subsidies According to the Wall Street Journal, Trump is considering compensating farmers with more than $10 billion in subsidies, financed through tariff revenue. But the subsidies likely won't be in place until 2026-27. Steam Hardware SurveyAMD reaches new record, Intel continues to lose ground The new Steam hardware survey shows that Intel continues to lose market share to AMD and is slipping to an all-time low.

I wonder what the BOM is for this AIO. Is there other places the company have/get their main revenue from? Surely not from this AIO. Cost breakdown of major components (estimates): Radiator: $15 - $30 (depending on material, fin density, and size) Pump & Block: $10 - $25 (integrated pump and cold plate) Fans (x3): $15 - $30 (quality, speed, and noise levels affect price) Tubing: $5 - $10 (material and length) Fittings & Connectors: $5 - $15 (often pre-installed but can add up) Other parts: $5 - $10 (fasteners, thermal paste, packaging) They have probably better deals on each of the components from this list above (from the minimum price). Minimum prices from the list is the same $55 USD as for the AIO without shipping costs. I expect the BOM estimates is more like $40 USD for this AIO. A 6.67-inch AMOLED display should increase the cost with around $50 included the ROG tax. So Asus should should never have sold their AIO flagship for more than around $200. This if made with quality parts and proper warranty. Incl the ROG tax. Everything above this price point is greed and for maxed profits from the idiots (Asus gang members - The sheep) you mention. @Mr. Fox Is this one of your younger nephews in my garden? 🙂

I expect you try to say 4* 8 pins outside the two for Cpu and one for the modern motherboards. So minimum 7 of them. 4 extra can also be used as spare connectors for a failed 12v-2*6 cable. Just pick up the ugly tentacle from the package and continue use your graphics card as nothing has happened while waiting for a replacement PCIe Gen 5 cable. Less than 7* 8-pins connectors on the psu shroud is a shame..... The song is also for Asus... Only 90% above MSRP. ASUS confirms GeForce RTX 5080 Hatsune Miku price at $1899, 90% above NVIDIA MSRP The plunger connector of horror turns 5 years old – Chronology of the multiple organ failure of the 12VHPWR and 12V-2X6 connector The result is a connector that, after just five years, deserves to be included in the Hall of Fame of the worst design flaws. And the 12VHPWR/12V-2*6 connector fiasco continue....And will be included in the Hall of Fame of the worst design flaws ever. HOF finally got a new meaning ASUS integrates shunt resistors into its BTF motherboards to monitor real-time power to the GPUs. Problems with RTX 50s and burnt graphics cards have been occurring nonstop since the beginning of the year, and they're still there, something many of you have unfortunately already experienced firsthand.

The choice between pest and cholera. Win 10 LTSC/Linux should be the better option if they really neeed to upgrade. Second.... Use Win 10 another year. Google wants to steal users from Microsoft by using the end of Windows 10 to attract them to its Chromebooks in a brilliant move. Google has launched a rather provocative message on its homepage: a pop-up that takes advantage of the end of Windows 10 support to push users toward Chromebook Plus, thereby stealing market share from Microsoft.

Nice. Yet another PSU manufacturer that mean 8 pins connectors should be removed from the PSU panel. 3 measly 8 pins connectors (incl 1 Cpu EPS connector) for their 1000W PSUs. But you get the modern tiny fire cracker, the PCIe Gen 5 connector. This is awful. Chieftec Introduces 1000 W VEGA M Series Power Supply Unit Press Release Here is also a new smart design choice. Engineering at it best. Trimming away 1/4 of the heatsink area to hide the PCIe Gen 5 cable show us the best coming from todays tech engineers. Why not shave of more of the heatsink finstack "so you can get a better grip around the connector" when you plug it in? 🤐 MSI Project Zero GPU Hides 12V-2x6 Power Connector

Dang🤩🤩🤩And all black. You have a good taste for quality brother😍

@Mr. Fox++++

Where is the equally cheaper 5090's ? Sub $1800 would be much easier to swallow. GeForce RTX 5080 now 10% below MSRP, RTX 5070 and 5060 Ti down 13–14% at MicroCenter See also my latest post here..... Everyone should be able to be offered something better from Redmond R***ds.

Fears AI bubble could cause stock market crash AI prevents US recession, but banks warn: the boom is not sustainable due to an $800 billion deficit. Trump knows exactly what he's doing and fears what could happen to his country if plans don't go as expected. In fact, the latest reports from Deutsche Bank and Bain & Co. reveal the reality.....

This is how the favorite brand to @electrosoft want to push their trashware on consumers. Tempted brother ?😀 GamingLaptops moderators warn of MSI marketing bots flooding threads on Reddit And here is some golden nuggets for bro @Mr. Fox Better say the future for modern computing😐 Steam Beta brings TPM/Secure Boot checks to System Information Secure Boot and TPM 2.0 have become requirements for an increasing number of games, mainly those with stricter anti-cheat systems. Recent examples include EA’s Javelin anti-cheat in Battlefield 6 and the upcoming Call of Duty: Black Ops 7, both of which will not launch without these security features enabled Steam beta helps players prep for games requiring Secure Boot or TPM Steam Hardware Survey will also start collecting Secure Boot and TPM data As always. No love for Gigabyte.

And it continue.... Intel want Apple to invest some of their money in Intel. What you think about this bro @Mr. Fox🤐 Or should they rather ask the US adm for more money (tax payers money)so they can make a real State-controlled cooperative? Like in the old days with the Soviet Union. This smells bad. Really bad. Or you prefer that Apple can help and dominate Intel so they can force/change them to make tech they want ? "USSR Cooperative" refers to cooperative organizations that operated within the Soviet Union's command economy, playing significant roles in various sectors from consumer goods and agricultural products to housing and handicraft production. The cooperative system, including large state-controlled unions like Centrosoyuz, evolved significantly Intel reportedly asks former partner Apple for financial injection Intel is in crisis and has now reportedly asked its former partner Apple for money and a new partnership. Other talks have already been successful Intel recently successfully approached the US government and Nvidia for financial support. The US government in Washington, DC, invested over $10 billion in the chipmaker , and GPU giant Nvidia followed suit with $5 billion and a partnership for Intel's CPUs . Apple could thus become the next major investor and partner on the list. Also Softbank have invested $2billion in Intel. I'm sure Intel will try compete with their next gen Intel processors made from the US tax payers money and Nvidia/Softbank. The race to the bottom have started. Qualcomm have fired the start shoot. The race is real😒 Qualcomm developed super-thin fanless Mini-PCs with Snapdragon X2 Elite series Qualcomm's new Snapdragon X2 Elite Extreme and Elite chips for PCs stretch up to a record 5 GHz

And it continue.... Intel want Apple to invest their money in Intel. What you think about this bro @Mr. Fox🤐 Intel reportedly asks former partner Apple for financial injection Intel is in crisis and has now reportedly asked its former partner Apple for money and a new partnership.

From the old days 🙂

This ain't much better... Microsoft will soon use your LinkedIn data to train AI and serve better ads LinkedIn came under fire earlier this year for allegedly using private messages of its Premium members to train its AI models. Now, the Microsoft-owned company is updating its terms of service (ToS) to explicitly detail the new ways in which customer data stored on LinkedIn may be utilized.

When designers override engineers. The normal nowadays @Mr. Fox Scratchgate hits the iPhone 17 Pro as iFixit confirms aluminum finish is prone to damage

Not exactly what you want from this messed up collaboration..... But Intel need the money, so.......🤢 Intel and Nvidia Are Teaming Up on Future CPUs. I Already Know What to Expect 1. Boosted AI Laptops, Beefed-Up Mini Desktops 2. More Affordable Content-Creation Laptops 3. Slimmer, Longer-Lasting Midrange Gaming Machines Yup, Intel mean the iGPU is very important for the company forwards... Hence the great driver support. Almost on level with their Cpu platform. One years cadence. Intel drops day zero game driver support for chips released last year Sorry, your one-year-old CPU is already on the back burner. Edit. Sad seeing this bro. Mr. Lip (Intel's CEO) looks like a little boy peeing his pants in admiration of TSMC and Nvidia @Mr. Fox The mighty Blue have fallen so hard that you can't believe it. From 14:18

Also Nvidia have grabbed 5% of Intel now. Then you have this.... And not to forget Softbank bought 2% of Intel lately. That means Intel have given away 17% of their company due bad leadership the last decade. With this speed of destroying the company Intel will be pretty fragmented with different interest. The executives who led Intel to decline now propose splitting it into five parts to "save" it. For years, well over a decade, Intel has been plagued by bad decisions, executives behind bad decisions, and strategies that left it on the brink of collapse.
