If it makes you feel better, 0 click on mine.

No, but it is ~~inferior grade~~ cost effective type of IPS screen. The contrast shift is higher than normal and its 120Hz refresh is one…

I am not sure I can provide an objective opinion on AM5 because I only have limited experience on it. My recommendation is stick with SK…

Okay, so you are just using rated setting with 1.2V. Yeah, it makes sense about lack of proper XMP support because those 1.2V ones are the…

Hard to tell because your current DDR4-3200 RAM modules are rated at 1.2V (and that's why they have more conservative timings 22-22-22-52).…

Well, at that time, for me, to get stability, I was only able to run 1 DIMM of Samsung die based DDR5 RAM module. With 2 DIMMs, once I…

> Paying almost 10x for a flagship Samsung or Apple and they include one. You meant they don't include one?

The first Macbook Pro I received from work has a screen defect. There is a cluster of pixels which are brighter. It wasn't enough to get a…

People did try: [Upgrading an M1 MacBook Air to 2TB! - SSD Storage Upgrade](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kDNtSqa_i2A) A huge pain though.

Depends on the board and the BIOS. When I first had my AM5 system, it was unstable with Samsung die based RAM modules and that was despite…

The RAM compression is about even Apple knows what it can do with RAM compression is limited and when it does over certain amount, even…

Home use, it is fine. It is not the same for work though. With work, the data I need to work with is easily 100x more than what I use…

For work, my work supplied Macbook Pro with 16GB RAM is not enough. Another family member has a work supplied Macbook Pro, but with 36GB of…

For people who really use Mac for serious work, 8GB is not enough. Honestly, even 16GB is not enough. My work supplied Mac, due to lack of…

It's a clickbait title. I don't think most OZBers take it seriously. If OP didn't juice it up a bit, no body would have bothered.

You need to stay with Superloop for 18 months on an eligible plan to get it for free right? If you intend to stay with Superloop for a…

This is basically a cheap mesh setup (since mainstream mesh kits do cost more). As for RT-AC68U, Merlin will support it till end of this…

If you plan to get XT9, which supports tri-bands, you don't really want this. The main advantage of tri-band mesh is one band can be…

That's good. Hopefully, it will renew at that price for you for at least another year.

Didn't you receive an e-mail from Adobe about due to some regulation restriction, Adobe had to move us to "AU" region. Once the…

I am really going to miss this deal: [Adobe Creative Cloud All Apps 100 GB 1-Year Subscription LBP356,400 (~A$6.13, No VPN Required) @…

Tell her your wife suspects you are having an affair so the CCTV needs to be there to prove your innocence.

Too early to tell those are good quality. They might be e-marked to support higher voltage, but I haven't got any USB-C/PD devices which…

Important devices, I stick with original cables. Thunderbolt 3/4/USB 4 cables, they generally have marking on the connectors. When you used…

No, that's incorrect. If we are talking about reads, especially sequential reads, these consumer grade Optane is no match to PCIe gen 3 x4…

The problem is that majority of games and apps won't take / optimise for Optane because no matter how fast that latency is, it is still…

Intel did indicate this can be used for PC/Client/Tablet in its product page. Yes, this is suitable for homelab, but to be honest, there is…

It is a legit point and that's why these Optane devices don't sell. Yes, QD1 read is impressive on these, but it is just not useful to…

No, it doesn't. This is PCIe gen 3 x4. Optane PCIe gen 4 x4 devices cost more than a PS5 itself.

This is not the best Optane 3D XPoint SSD (more like low end of Optane to be honest). So, its main advantage is 4K random read queue depth…
