This is the general idea,but here it's connected via usb,not directly on motherboard's sata! But I don't know if it's worth the hassle,and if I would even noticed the difference! Sata ssd yes,but with hdd,newer usb ports reach their's maximum speed anyway!

I thought about shucking both external Seagate HDD's,but with plugging them directly into the case,I would mess up air flow,and suffocate other components,so I think it's better to leave them where they are,for now,monitoring temperatures while using them,and suspending activities on 50C!

I'm generally thrilled with new PC,only complaint,is that Nvidia should have released rtx 5060 with 12 Gb vram! But I'm not affected,I don't play every new release,except if it comes from Larian! I bought new setup week before Divinity trailer,that was a sign, I sensed Larian force awakening :)

I'm pissed off as hell,accidentally restarted my PC,and update started!!! I wonder what kind of havoc will this one cause! I'm VERY close to trying to install win10 on new setup! Even better,I have to educate myself with Linux! Cause this is getting pointless! It's wonder CPU didn't jump to 100 yet!

Now I'm sorry that I didn't bought larger capacity nvme for pcie adapter,that was my last slot,I COULD buy adapter with slots for 2 drives,but then they'll share the speed,I don't like that! I'd have to discard or sell 1 Tb capicity,to replace it with 4!

I can't afford it right now,but if someone is looking,and is close to Croatia,, I haven't seen such a low price in a while, 1024 euros! 150 cheaper than in other stores over here!

200Gb transfer can new seagate external handle, after that, it reaches 50C,then it have to cool down.. It's pretty ok actually,thought it would be worse,200Gb in one go is pretty ok! I don't have to fill the whole drive at once! If it stays that way,I won't shuck the drive

My external 10Tb Seagate arrived, and for now, temperature is 39C while idle,now all I have to do,is transfer 100 or so Gb's on it, to see what would happen to temp,and if it's acceptable! If not,shucking!

While perusing through old magazines,I stumbled upon Tombrider 1,DOS game,and I asked AI if there was some remaster or something done to it,and to my surprise,there WAS a remaster of ALL first 3 Tombrider games in one! Here's the first one,now you can even see sunshine rays,looks MUCH better!

My first setup ever was Commodore 64, I had games on tapes, and those HUMONGOUS 5,25" diskettes! I loved Giana Sisters game the most at the time!

Honestly,I was on FB for a while,but couldn't stomach the depravity anymore,we have fascist singer trying to replicate your president's scam,and probably run for office.. Luckily,many people see what happens when you trust a scam artist on your example,and are rejecting the message,but NOT all!

Some articles age like fine wine,others not so much :) Our Croatian journalists were not that kind to Diablo 2 on release day :)

I'm reading the old issues of Pc Powerplay magazines,it's like time-machine,you see how hardware was developing over the years,and games got better and faster for it! I love reading how some great titles were received back in the day!

I just couldn't help myself,ordered ANOTHER item,to expand my storage,cause it's filling up fast! I need advice though,cause I heard those can heat up pretty good,should I just shuck the drive,disassemble it,and try to find some space in the PC itself,and hook it up there?

It's not a TOTAL beast,card could be better,with more vram,but I'm happy-Ryzen 5 7500F,RTX 5060 8Gb,PRIME B650M-A II motherboard,and 32Gb DDR5 2400MHz CL 40. Wanted to upgrade to 5070ti,but I'd have to upgrade PSU too,and that was too much. I think 32Gb ddr5 picks up the slack when g-card goes short

I know it sounds crazy (maybe because it is),but I planted 150 tomatoes last season, and I live alone! I was feeding nearly dozen people with it,family,friends from work,and neighbors! And I made my special ghiveci sauce too! People remember,karma is a wonderful thing

Pile at the summer's end,parts that didn't decompose,I threw on the new pile,like always! And I'm moving the pile in one direction,not back to the same spot,so I can get new fertile ground for planting! Everything grows like crazy if you plant it on the place where compost pile was!

Finally started doing something useful :) Temperature was acceptable,so I turned over the pile,leaving the lower part for the sieve. Last 2 photos were taken during sunset,hence lower visibility. Not to mention I STILL use my old LG,without internet on it, I feel more free that way
