but I guess english is ok
Lol hot potatoes. Howowbowowbow.
What do you suppose the odds are this idiot doesn't know about the dual bios switch?
they are not real
What are not real?
Idiots buying tech they can't figure out? That's how I got a reasonably priced x79 mobo. Asus's built in USB bios flash didn't work, 12$ bios chip replacement later and it was fully updated and functional.
like chinks say they are R9 290/970s etc
but its just 560s or something
and they change the software
so it looks like its a 970 when you plug it in
in speccy and shit
when it isnt
its pure chinkey, dont buy computer parts from chinks
it's an ebay auction Mao
from Texas
mexicans arent better
This is a nig nog who bought it off someone who "couldn't test if it was working" so they probably fucked up on an overclock and didnt know about the dual bios. Sold it as is, and this guy also didn't take the time to realize there's a little button to switch bios. It powers on, but doesn't display an image. I unfortunately can't think of any way to pry for information without giving it away and driving the price up.
why not buy it and take the risk
Its on auction and still has over a day left. I got it on my watch list for sure. I already pulled up a bios flash tutorial since I've never had to do one before.
I will do that though if the price is right, comfy. Like an evga x58 sli mobo I got for 30$ untested. Worked, updated bios, then did a super simple mod to it. Now it's fully x5600 compatible.
Used to see those evga boards dirt cheap all the time for a while. Wish I would have known and jumped on them. Could be churning out refurbed 6 core xeons systems left and right.
tfw doing custom splashscreen on thinkpad bios flashtool actually damages the bios so it cant UEFI boot
Don't think pads have enough room for an ssd and a hdd?
T420 you can swap out the dvd drive for a second hard drive
Same with elitebooks and latitudes
cool
Spiffy. Just get a small ssd for your os and core applications, then rice away. Need for a disc drive is minimal at best nowadays, and you can just get a cheap USB external.
They might even make external enclosures for laptop disc drives. Never thought to look.
disc drives are dead
DDR3 RAM are dead
HDDs are dead
We are moving onto next gen tech
business as usual
did you know HDDs die to powerful magnets, and at high altitudes due to air pressure?
But a SSD would survive
Speaking of ddr3, I thought I seen lga 1151 motherboards where some were ddr3, and some were ddr4. What's that all about? I was assuming it was a clerical error.
technically you dont need to have RAM which is faster speed than yoru CPU
Its still, as its very cheap, worth to pick ddr3
both mobos and bricks
