Ikea chairs work, especially for the price. However I've always had issues with longevity, especially padding. I've also had two Ikea…

Just don't overload it too much, and remember that it has more integrity in one direction then the other.…

Oh well. I had this on click to collect, and they rang this morning to say they no longer had any in stock.

Intel couldn't understand either. Not performant enough for DRAM, but too expensive to be used as bulk storage. And kept under lock and key…

I've got a different amazon basics camera bag, besides the strap it is pretty decent - constant squeaks while walking. Pretty easy to buy a…

On an N or AC laptop it would make a difference, but less so with WIFi 6 or 7. It's more the gas lighting by product names that drives me…

Bloody hell, UniFI has done an apple. The U6 Pro is 4x4 on 5 GHz, U7 Pro is 2x2 on 5GHz and the new U7 Pro *Max* is 4x4 on 5GHz. At the…

First, how did you discover such a thing? Do you normally take a hairdryer to your electronics? Second have a look inside (after its been…

Try using any other mode than turbo - 50 lumens is more than enough in most situations. Otherwise get a torch with appropriate…

I prefer the all metal Sandisk drives. Seem a bit faster, and makes it easier to burn your fingers.

Considering you could get the S2721DGF for about the same price a few months ago, this seems like a bad deal. Actually that monitor is $420…

Somewhere between "good" and "overkill". Things like TLC/QLC, DRAM, and SLC cache amount are not very well advertised on consumer SSDs, so…

At the very least better then all the other cheap USBs I've used.

Fast speed + metal chassis? Oh yes, they're perfect for burning your finger prints off. But I can attest to these being fast under…

If you have Nintendo Switch Online and you're buying a Nintendo game, remember to stack with this. (Two game vouchers).…

Only when you're dealing with millions of IOPs. So maybe if you have hundreds of startup programs it would be worth it, but otherwise not…

> That’s how it’s been since the dawn of home PC’s. I'm just glad that modern games scale graphics settings so well these days - doom…

It's even better if you grab some 10% off eshop vouchers from the occasional big w sale.

The ongoing deal for the S2721DGF is worth a look. Only 1440p but you get a decent IPS panel and freesync support.

If you don't have NVME on your board then I'd wait for a deal on a TLC SSD with DRAM, like the MX500 deals that come up occasionally. This…

Same thought here. As much as I wanted a fancy, expensive monitor, the value on those DGF's was just too good to pass up.

It comes as just the dell box with a shipping label slapped to it. Check for a seal sticker, and protip open it laying flat.

You can get a ThinkCentre M710q Tiny with i5 for < $200, can be upgraded to 32GB of ram. Better than a NUC IMO.

I'm looking for a combined DAC/AMP for my bookshelf speakers, preferably USB for use on my PC. (Voll B44 V2s). Any good units included in…

AFAIK basically nothing in the PC space supports HDMI-CEC. Though I think adapters exist that split out the CEC bits into USB for Intel…

At least its sitting in your PC/Playstation being used, and not sitting in a box waiting. Right?

Looks like you'll need a different riser. You can get the Mx20q adapter for $30-$40 if you look around. 5C50W00877 for the gen in this deal.

Here is the absolute best resource I've found on this. It seems you were totally correct on their being different risers for different…
