    I'm a Big Fan

    IIRC, The CM Hyper T4 will fit, but was out of stock when I built his system.

    My son has the same case, and has a Cooler Master Hyper H410R for an Intel i5-11500. Works perfectly fine. (He has 3x intake on the front and 1x outlet on the back). The other option is a front mounted AIO. Just re-checked the spreadsheet I used at the time to build/price/spec, these where the...

    @time, how are going after the Cyclone? My family is doing fine, we just got power back after 6 days without power. Internet and mobile services are now coming back online in my immediate area now. Otherwise minimal property damage for my home. For other members, Cyclone Alfred hit south east...

    Buildzoid has a good follow up that is easy to understand why the 12VHPWR is less than desirable.

    Empire in Decline

    I would like to congratulate the fact that all citizens of the US are now female... "Rise of the Northern Amazon Nation" was certainly not on my 2025 bingo card.

    Just an FYI for those that are not aware of how Australia works. The basic requirements are that you are licensed first (need to complete a mandatory safety course and have a genuine reason - and self defence is not a reason), and then once licensed (takes 4-8 weeks from application), then...

    Video Cards

    Didn't nVidia have a similar issue a few years ago, where the xx50/xx60 had less performance with dual/quad core system (i3 and i5's and Ryzen 3's), than with the flag ship CPUs of the time?

    From an outsider, it certainly appears that he is filling positions based on loyalty to himself (or his family), rather than based on qualification or expertise in the field.

    Desktop Email clients (2024)

    Thanks for the suggestions, and had a look at those options. Both of those look really good, but decided to stick with Thunderbird as it what my wife has and is used to, so at least she can help the kids if they get stuck with something. Thunderbird (current ESR) comes with all the support for...

    Desktop Email clients (2024)

    Hi all, Just like to find out what email clients people are using/recommending these days. With Microsoft updating Windows 11 users to the ”new” outlook, which is imho is an extremely poor replacement for the older Mail app, need to migrate the kids systems to something better. My wife uses...

    And one final take, with his age and health conditions, what is the likelihood that he is replaced by Vance just after the mid-point in his term? A few key points: If the first two years are bad, the GOP can blame Trump when he is ousted. If the VP becomes President with less than 2 years left...

    I guess at this stage in the game, how many seasoned and long term politicians want anything to do with the president-elect, knowing that they'll outlive him and understand the transactional nature of dealing with him (you're only in his good books while you are useful to his cause). I can only...
