!fu Chewy lol Happy Birthday

ibuypower junk lol GN Gamers Nexus is a very reputable PC Tech reviewer group. and another.

Ya there laptops were crap. My sister in law had one and it worked great for about 8 months then started having random problems untill the HDD up and quit. She had it "fixed" (AKA they sent her a new pre loaded HDD and my brother "put it in" lol) and promptly sold it on FB Marketplace and got an HP Omen 15 "gaming laptop". She's very happy with it. The 4th and 5th gen AMD mobile CPUs are very power efficient as well and can increase battery life by 2-4 hours compared to a similarly specced Intel chip. Hers has the AMD Ryzen 5 5600H and RTX 3060. It was $999.99 or some shit lol, on sale on 2020s black friday. They normally sell for around $1200. Just going by all of the reviews and benchmarks and stuff it seems to be better built than the iBuyPower stuff. Especially knowing that iBuyPower uses cheap ass Asrock or very low end Asus motherboards and generic power supplys and memory in there low and mid tier gaming PCs. And there cases with the glass front panels are a big problem as far as thermals. ABS makes really decent $1,000-$1,500 PCs with alot better components. This one is really nice. https://www.newegg.com/abs-ali479-gladiator/p/N82E16883360074R ABS sells there PCs on Newegg. Here is there PCs. Alot to choose from. https://www.newegg.com/p/pl?N=100897449 50008484&SrchInDesc=Master

Pretty darn decent PC for the price. 8 core 16 thread AMD Ryzen 7-5700G CPU is faster than all of intels 9-11 series cpus, 12gb RTX 3060 GPU is a decent card. Motherboard is a standard Micro ATX board and it has alot of decent features including wifi and Bluetooth. 16gb of memory, 2 HDDs 1 512gb NVMe SSD and a 1tb hdd for storage. Case has decent airflow with it's mesh front and top. https://www.bestbuy.com/site/lenovo-legion-tower-5-amd-gaming-desktop-amd-ryzen-7-5700g-16gb-memory-nvidia-geforce-rtx-3060-512gb-ssd-1tb-hdd-raven-black/6476717.p?skuId=6476717 Read through reviews and comments on it and all of them are good except for a few that didn't care for the RGB lights and a couple had problems connecting to the internet using the WiFi. 1 thing about Lenovo is that they use decent quality components such as power supply, motherboard, memory ect. Bad thing about iBuyPower is that they tend to cheap out on the motherboard, power supply and most of there cases are not vented properly which causes the CPU and GPU to overheat. I watch GamersNexus reviews all of the time and iBuyPower cases always suffer from overheating because of the glass front panels they use on most of there gaming pc cases.

Good luck finding a Video card for any where near it's Retail price. Most newer video cards are selling for 100%+ more than there retail prices. Video card Prices just started to drop a tiny bit but they are still ridiculously overpriced. example. a newer $439.99 card is selling for $761.99 new on Amazon or $649-$800 on ebay. Bad thing about Ebay is that you could be buying a video card that was used for Mining Bitcoin. Mining cards run 24/7 and at 100% usage for months or years on end. My RX 480 4g card was used for mining and it died on me. I bought it for $100 and it lasted about 2 1/2 years but it started randomly crashing and artifacting about 1 year ago. It would only run without crashing with certain older drivers.

Don't bend or poke or get the battery wet. They can catch fire and/or explode. Lithium batteries can be pretty darn nasty. Don't throw it in the trash. I've seen a few fires started that way. Take it outside and whack it with a hammer a couple times and see what it does? lol Did that with my old phone battery and it swelled up and caught fire. Video of a laptop battery being poked with a simple thumbtack. Laptop might be on it's last leg. They will quickly overheat from a bad fan, clogged up by dust or by being used on a bed which covers the fan ports. When they overheat, the solder under the CPU and GPU chips and GPU memory chips melt. It can be fixed by someone that has the equipment and knows how to re-ball the solder joints but it costs alot and usually doesn't last. See what she means about "acting weird" If it's crashing or artifacting or the graphics driver constantly crashing and reloading when loading stuff (screen goes black and screen flickers a couple times then comes back up) If it does that she's hurt bad. Looked on Ebay and there are a bunch of new motherboards for it but they are $265+ for the base model with the i7-8750H and GTX 1060 and the OEM battery is around $90 and the fans are $40 for the pair. Looks like that laptop still sells for $850-$1200 used so it is worth fixing if you are up to the challenge lol. You Might have to run system restore or try to contact Razer to get the OS to load with the new motherboard. https://www.ebay.com/itm/154342767302?hash=item23ef8bbac6:g:9uAAAOSwz0JgNVuT

RC30-0248 is the battery. Search Amazon or Ebay and try to get an OEM battery if at all possible. Like this one. https://www.ebay.com/itm/133525118593?_trkparms=ispr%3D1&hash=item1f16b79e81:g:hMwAAOSwHXlhl1zu&amdata=enc%3AAQAGAAACoPYe5NmHp%2B2JMhMi7yxGiTJkPrKr5t53CooMSQt2orsSHYXPhGXR5uguexJBeHwfgQ%2BDcW73deINM%2BBui6o5SYfuUCPm4k4N7jW4XGFfZC3S0gHMpvoXLn3k2JJHrn2sfCXAuGwkH%2BrqG9o7jdHfB57%2BziFK3ANuze3JZj%2FG00cf%2BH7U%2Fr984ar%2FlBcg5Lu7YKAzGUZd3Z2DSeDO8wJFMDvwbPPiZoGxqGwUIobJUCMPmBuktwqM4b0m0bK%2FknvzspSQoobr2Vw2KV7HZ3nBFQZo7zA43lZx8YgQ20fpw%2BOXBf07PcERm0KED5Q3D2UhZc6%2FfDcW9IYTA1W0FPL5zT6u8%2Bq%2FB243d%2FHOt4ZpwomzqGzvoKitj8V%2FPL4gz50WP58uVwq%2Bmi2fQYOhV9twBK%2F9W1Gfpjr1FomhwHwQCxclpcdXjcXVb2YGdK8%2B6ZSIXbHCMvA62MIaHz2spIhVLoK6SQDFmAOyv3fIVv74gyWueCJumXPorFNCmYOtCu96JtqpGPamu5qbjOY4g61n4NRdV4E19ABuomO%2Fk6OTtf2zw%2BvT7A2BRDQlF1%2BkbkmWcxidcC0JJ3PVc2OMzQ4FoS80ADgECiABfUpVr0fh6i0%2Fpq1pvRawXLR0%2Fo6pWI2IrATDV16re44u3c5M7YBfFg4CMCR941wOd8EPOGxLy2kObHKWJcgq3Hj6y293aoKwE4K7LKsXObXvUdUNNJnfJfQY%2Bhmr1E%2FAZOst84c13x64ZJyGe2P62Pj6gtW2NRYPgZExIZp6lAHcQ7aFSxJgPMLtQs8ZUpqZI9%2FvpCeVOy7YQUQxy4KFAm1m4jxta9h4OzvB%2B07kQVJDU04mjn9QtHzJEQww9Q2ao8gBcO1wLIxuf0GkRgz9dVQ7cLNbzJmE6A%3D%3D|clp%3A2334524|tkp%3ABFBM9orJ1OJf You will need a Torx T5 screwdriver bit and a #2 Phillips screwdriver. Decent tutorial on how to replace the battery. Not 100% sure with these newer laptops but, it should work if you just remove the battery and keep it plugged in. I have a laptop that still works fine without a battery in it. Just have to keep it plugged in. I have it hooked to my TV to stream movies and stuff since I don't have Cable TV.

Happy Birthday

I bought 4 big 1lb 10 oz bags of Berry Colossal Crunch for $12 the other day. Love that stuff. If ya have the munchies just eat it rite out of the bag.

Do you know what Motherboard you are running? Does it have a spot to plug a TPM module into it? Amazon has one for my motherboard but I'm to cheap to buy it and to damn lazy to reformat again. Win 10 works perfectly fine for the games that I play.

Happy Birthday.

Don't buy a used SSD off of ebay. There are a bunch on Ebay that were used for Mining Chia crypto. Chia was found to be extremely slow and unprofitable due to SSDs failing after only 80 days. https://www.windowscentral.com/watch-out-used-ssds-chia-crypto-miners

Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday @PigDog GrrrrrrrrrrrOink!!!

Ya 1st snow I was like, SWEET we got snow that I can play in. Then the next time it drops like 1 inch and I'm like, Ya, you can fuck off now you cold wet, crap!!!

Damnit I want cookies. Anyone got any freshly baked Rum Raisin cookies?

Happy Birthday !fu @Tiger! lol

Yes the Votes do matter and are taken into consideration. Please Vote. It does help to weed out the maps that people do not like. Check out my attachment. This is in the Admin Portal under Map Index.

If your motherboard is more than a couple of years old, it will not have a TPM 2.0 (Trusted Platform Module) installed in it. I bought my AM4 motherboard back in July and it does not have a TPM module but it Does have a header on the board to plug one into. If I had one, I would have probably installed Win 11 a couple of months ago. But I'm to Cheap and Broke to spend the $35 + shipping for the TPM 2.0 module. Win 10 works fine and I'm not willing to install some 3rd party software or install a Win 11 Beta version and then upgrade to Win 11 to get it to install. If I'm going to install Win 11 it will be a Clean install. I've had way to many "Hiccups" from Upgrading OSes in the past. Win 7 to Win 8 was a Nightmare then came Win 8.1 then Win 8.1 to Win 10. Every single time I've eventually had to Format and do a clean install.

Might have something to do with the Hunga Tonga volcano eruption. It was a Very Violent eruption. The blast was heard as far away as Alaska and Air Pressure waves from the eruption were measured clear over in the UK over 10,000 miles away.

!FU @M!dg3t Dick motherfucker About damn time you get on the forums ya fucking idiot.

Happy Birthday @Giggles you Old Fart lol

That's COOL. Now I'm stuck watching this guy to lol. This is funny.
