WhatsApp has some conveniences for me such as easy access to data. As far as I know most messengers hide data in some private location and allow limited access with great difficulty. Last I checked to save media from a chat I had to go to each media and select export manually.

This was boxed. Except the space where cooler sits is empty.

Oh, must be a CPU fan :)

Some other retailers seem to list the same model with cooler for almost the same price. X means some changes in CPU itself, something to do with internal memory or whatever. Many people recommended the X version over plain 5700 due to this.

I have not done any changes to the software yet, will try that today.

Monitor HDMI cable is the only pluggable connection here. What was that very last word - did you mean ‘that’?

There is no such option.

Only 2, the other one is SPDIF.

Is it possible to use Interstellar exclusively for Lemmy only?

I am out of loop here, why do you say so?

Much needed.

KDE has option to automount during login. I found that to be the best solution.

Edit: I am mainly a PCLinuxOS user, so not sure if that would work for you.

Looks like Reddit blocked it.

RedReader is working.

I am not doing much. May be play 1 to 2 hours a week. Other than that they don’t get used much. May be my bad luck. Third time may be the charm.

Recently I am thinking like that too, but my previous cards failed within 2 years.

Yes, buying a brand new AM4 setup would be a dead end choice. Because I already have these AM4 things, I wanted to just upgrade.

Will changing the CPU cause me to lose my Windows license? I use only local account. And end of road for Win 10 is also another reason to choose a new CPU.

Those are quite expensive hence I have not explored that option yet. Another reason is exactly what you are afraid of, the room or absence of it. The GPU itself is impinging on one of SATA ports and I had to get a bent SATA connector to just make it work.

I will open the case and visually check again.

Integrated graphics is mainly as a backup plan for when discrete GPU conks off.

Presently the 2 sticks of RAM although of same brand and specification, were bought a month or two apart. So not sure if they are working as intended. How to confirm if they are working in dual channel mode or not?

I think in Ryzen CPUs having integrated GPU means loss of some memory bandwidth due to internal traffic or some other reason. This was true at least for the initial generation or two. Not sure about present.

One other reason I am looking at integrated graphics is as a backup solution for times the discrete one conks off and I need to get another or get it serviced which could be upwards of 2 weeks easily.

There are 4 SATA ports, 3 of which are taken up by HDDs (forgot about the total HDDs earlier while posting and 1 for DVD Writer.

Integrated graphics is for backup for when the discrete card fails.
