Alexander Moore67 said:$33 is the actual difference, specifically $44

Where is the best place to actually pick stuff up? Like, where can I find the most decent deals?

Thanks

Bryan Taylor6 said:Just type "passmark r5 3600" into Google—honestly, you can do that for any processor, really—and you'll see pretty clearly which one hits harder. The 3400 g has integrated graphics, though, kind of in the ballpark of an old HD 7750 or 7770... I guess it all depends on what you actually need. That Gigabyte B450 gaming x motherboard is a decent pick, maybe even a B550 if you want, and that R5 1600 af seems like a pretty good deal...

I don't really have a use for a dedicated GPU, so from what I've gathered, the Ryzen 5 3600 seems like the best way to go, I suppose..

As for the board, this Gigabyte B450 gaming x looks perfectly fine to me..

I'll probably grab some RAM too (it's hard to mess that up, I think) .. The graphics card might be an older model, but I assume it'll have enough kick for what I'm doing—I'm definitely not some hardcore power user 😁

EDIT: Actually, I'm leaning toward the Ryzen 5 2600 now .. It probably isn't worth shelling out that much extra cash for the R5 3600.

Dear users of this thread, I find myself in need of a "small" bit of advice...

I am currently facing quite a dilemma regarding an upgrade for certain components... Regarding the processor, I suppose I am wondering if the I5 9400 f would be a better choice than the Ryzen 5 2600?

Also, what exactly is the difference between the Ryzen 5 2600 and the Ryzen 5 3400 g ??

In addition to that—if it isn't too much trouble while you are suggesting processors—I would appreciate a recommendation for a motherboard, perhaps up to $250... (ideally something on the cheaper side) 😁 ... maybe a bit of a best buy.

+ Furthermore, if any of you have another processor recommendation up to, say, $400 (again, looking for a best buy), I would be most grateful for your input.

Thank you all in advance.👍

It is certainly something one can live without. I am only asking this on behalf of some truly oblivious friends of mine.

I have been aware of the Ctrl and scroll wheel combination for quite some time—specifically, using Ctrl plus the plus or minus keys.

I suspect a massive chunk of users are going to ditch Facebook just because this new layout makes everything such a cluttered mess. It’s impossible to navigate. I truly can't wrap my head around how they get paid such astronomical sums—likely an amount most people couldn't even fathom—to deliver something this clunky. You’d think they could at least manage to build something functional, or better yet, just leave the interface alone while it was still working.

This movie is absolute garbage...

The whole plot just revolves around one room for basically no reason at all. I mean, maybe the first thirty minutes or so managed to grab my attention—it was somewhat interesting then—but after that? It’s just an hour of nothingness and some really minor, pointless developments. I guess it just fails to go anywhere.

I wouldn't recommend this to anyone.

Thomas Wells5 said:maybe give AOMEI Partition Assistant the free version a shot

I already gave that a shot, but... I guess it doesn't work? It's just not doing anything for me. It won't even show the USB drive when I boot up—I mean, I don't know if I'm supposed to manually input something or what—but all I see are "just" the HDD partitions.

Kate Martin3 said:Have you tried using Diskpart yet? It’s always been a bit hit-or-miss for me. It's just that CMD utility that comes bundled with Windows. A quick Google search should give you the specifics.

Well, I’ve tried everything—from the CMD route to various different programs like Rufus, some HP utility, even one of those Transcend miracles, and so on. All of them were completely useless. I suppose I could eventually try it on a different computer running a different operating system... if I had the energy..

Perhaps you could find me a tutorial that worked for you? That Diskpart thing... maybe I'll give it one more shot.

Thanks in advance,
Best,

Just wanted to bump this thread a bit. 😁

I am having absolutely zero luck trying to format USB stick... It’s a Kingston DataTraveler 111 32. I keep getting hit with this constant error saying it's disk Write protected. Honestly, I feel like I've tried every single thing on the internet, but nothing seems to work. It's incredibly frustrating.

Does anyone have any actual advice? Maybe a tutorial that has been thoroughly Tapatalk tested and actually works?
Thanks a ton.

Best,
