I’ve been happily sitting on my R5 2600x for so many years now lol. My MB is an MSI B450 Pro Carbon and it can easily handle a 5950x or 5800x3D or whatever.

Add another 2x8 gb ddr4 for 32GB total and I’ll be seeing some insane performance relative to what I’m already happy with, which will last me another 5 years easily unless the mobo dies.

It’s really insane how well designed AM4 is.

Ah, AM4.

At 10 years old, it’s still the platform that keeps on giving.

In Greece they all seem to own or work at big stores that sell randomly branded clothing and low to OK quality tools, fishing gear, cooking pots, gardening stuff and a myriad of random electronic devices like flashlights, LED strips, chargers, selfie sticks etc, all sold dirt cheap.

Some of them learn the language at some point, but most don’t. They don’t seem to even hang out amongst themselves, it’s seemingly isolated families here and there.

They keep to their own and bother no one.

And they’re still called “settlers” XD

Imagine me and a battalion of Greek soldiers marching into, say, Italy and bombing a town to shit, then establishing a perimeter, kill the locals, act like the area was promised to us by Zeus 3000 years ago and be called “Greek settlers” on mainstream media and nothing done to us.

Country who has most oil in the world and controls the supply in half the planet says people should use more oil.

Also, water is wet.

The EU needs to figure out a mechanism to deal with member governments going rogue

Things are going great

I believe he meant “people use their browser like they use an appliance” as in they don’t know any details about it, just open it and use it as is.

1. Windows Update. If the thing was off for a while, expect windows update to cripple it until it’s satisfied.

2. Slow boot drive. If it’s an older SSD it might be kicking the bucket soon. Also, if your boot drive is over 90% usage you’ll definitely feel it.

3. RAM issues. Download RAMMon (free RAM checking tool) and let us know what you see

4. Thermals. If your CPU hits 90+ degrees then it’ll have to throttle down to save itself. Cleaning the dust helps a lot with that because dust is an insulator and traps heat in.

It’s not always the utilization percentage that tells the whole story.

You’re a bit out of luck as far as upgrades go for that platform, but if you have 1 stick of RAM and get another one you’ll feel a difference.

The man is a master of the Gish gallop. Here’s a Wikipedia link about it.

Step 1. Create 2 reddit accounts

Step 2. Post the question in the builds sub

Step 3. Answer it yourself with whatever you think is best. Make sure you’re very confident it’s the best solution and nobody could come up with a better one

Step 4. Rejoice at the flock of tryhards that will down vote your reply to hell while fighting each other for the actual best answer

Step 5. Choose whichever comment wins.

Edit: but to answer your question: The stuttering while opening applications isn’t from that GPU. It can game mostly fine at 1080p medium to low.

Either you need more RAM (16gb minimum these days) or your CPU is showing its age first, which I’m gonna guess is an Intel i5 4000 series or maybe 7000 series.

Post the rest of the specs and we can all fight each other for the best answer here.

Things are going well

In any war there are soldiers who don’t wanna be there. Good, honest people, forced to march on because their masters will it.

If they come for my country I will have to shoot them nonetheless.

Take this motherfucker down by any political means necessary and if you can’t, then form your “well regulated militia” that your all too precious 2nd amendment affords you and take back your own country instead of others

Yes, the Swedish diesel electric subs are really quiet and hard to detect in a war game scenario, but that is done with many artificial constraints to the defending CSG, which is tightly packed in a relatively small patch of ocean that the Swedish sub knew and could plan for.

In reality those subs are stealthy only while traveling at 6 knots and the CSG can travel at 30 over vast expanses of water, with an effective strike range of 2000 miles.

Also, in war they’re allowed to use high energy sonars that they can’t use in a war game because it kills marine animals, which will detect a turd floating 500 miles away (exaggerating here but you get the idea).

Any US carrier strike group can probably sink the entire navy of most countries. This calls for a full NATO response because if it doesn’t then I don’t know what does

It will end like it always does. Like the Roman and Byzantine empires ended, like the USSR ended, like Alexander the great’s empire ended, like England’s empire ended.

At some point great powers become too great to be stable, so they fracture into provinces that become separate countries and the cycle starts over.

Only this time there are nuclear weapons involved, so we’ll see how that goes

Their only common ground is hating India

I mean they have surrounded the area with an entire army that shoots little kids for sport so…
