Does NVMe vs SATA really matter yet performance-wise?
enormously (modern drives are close to 10x faster), and yet youâd probably never notice if you havenât had one

absolutely baffled by the fact that pc part picker does not appear to have a way to filter SSDs which are PCIe 4.0
ours literally only has one on the back, our case is openly ventilated on that side though thankfully

Hmm I shouldâve gotten an NVMe for my last workstation SSD upgrade then, although I suspect the CPU is still the bottleneck on compiles and the network on git syncs so maybe itâs basically fine even for that kind of workload. I just urgently needed more disk space and wanted minimal install hassle so I went SATA
me too but for real every time it gets a false negative and you put in the pin it adjusts the model
I had to redo the initial setup altogether recently, maybe due to hair?

itâs all fun and games with a 300w GPU until your HVAC breaks and it feels like cooking over a gas stove

Will they start regulating this stuff when Nvidia makes 500 watt cards for 2% extra performance

With this mobile laptop GPUs should I really be looking at anything more than the RTX 3060?
Promise Iâll be out of this thread soon.
imo no â laptop GPU specs are always kind of hand wavy compared to desktop models because GPUs are more thermally constrained than any other part, so I donât even know what theyâre considering a 3060, but I donât think anything larger is really viable as a laptop and a ~3060 should meet minimum specs for PS5 ports for a long time
a mobile (lower power) 3070 is roughly equivalent to a 3060 fwiw
just use sharpkeys to remap them in the registry!!! totally nuts that they wouldnât do it that way

On Windows I use a tool called AutoHKey to do this.
