Look, for anyone here struggling with the language barrier,
Gree doesn't make AC units for Daikin. Period. Honestly, if you’ve spent 25 years dealing with Daikin, you’d already know whether they were outsourcing their stuff or not. Daikin actually used to manufacture for other brands—like how GEA was made in a Daikin plant and some Panasonic models back in the day.
In Europe, Daikin runs production out of their plants in the Czech Republic and Belgium.

Joseph Stewart38 said:LOL... So Bashar al-Assad is some kind of war criminal, but George W. Bush—who basically turned an entire nation into dust and ash while hundreds of thousands of people died—is totally fine just because he was "legally elected"? Give me a break. Same goes for Barack Obama; he went after Libya and left tens of thousands of civilians dead, but I guess that's cool too...
By the way, Assad was legally elected too.
Seriously, stop feeding into all this absolute nonsense being posted here.
I’d also point out that Vladimir Putin was legally elected, it’s just that he didn't slaughter hundreds of thousands of people, so he doesn't fit into that little "democratic leader" fantasy the poor soul you're quoting seems to be hallucinating about at his own peril.
It’s about time the mods stayed on their toes and quickly shut down those moronic attempts to play down the significance of today’s historical date.
I’m guessing those posts were erased because they were just pure brain rot, potentially messing with the mental health of the general public thanks to some clueless user spreading nothing but negativity.

This whole thing is just for the masochists on this subforum:
🤣 🙏
Where exactly did you find these "real-life examples"? Drop a link. Maybe I missed it.🤣
I mean, I knew this PDF wasn't exactly a deep dive into genius-level wisdom, but still... 👏

Timothy Kim60 said:feralcanyon73 - man, I honestly have no clue what you're even talking about. Are you seriously telling me you'd grab a 990 Extreme 3 just for a little $267 +/- gain? 🤣
BTW - turns out even an FX 8320 can be overclocked on that Gigabyte board, though it hits its sweet spot with an FX 6300—idk which part of my explanation is tripping you up.
I wouldn't touch an Asrock... but then again, neither would I touch a Gigabyte... If you're going with AMD ASUS, that's the board you need to get. Specifically, stick to the Sabertooth or the Crosshair.😉
P.S. Good luck trying to Overclock FX 8320 on that piece of junk board.🙂
EDIT: Send me a link proving that Gigabyte board is actually any good for overclocking that CPU.
Nezz, honestly, it’s just too much of a headache to deal with when you could just grab something from ASUS or Giga for that kind of cash.
Regarding the 970A-DS3P—look, most people aren't going to be pushing their overclocking limits, they're just regular users. But then you've got the enthusiasts who want to squeeze every last drop of power out of their rig—those guys sort of focused on cooling first, but it turns out this board can actually handle it for peanuts, and you can really see the quality difference compared to other boards at the same price point.
Forget about any serious OC with that Giga board; it's a non-starter, whereas the 8320 is basically built for overclocking.🙏
Alexander Moore67 said:If you're struggling just to overclock a processor on a board where you aren't even sure if a BIOS flash will actually make it work, then I don't see the "enthusiast" part in that—it's just wasting time for pennies.
I was speaking more broadly here; Intel and true enthusiasm are basically two different planets.
Don't get me wrong, I've got nothing against Intel personally. I'm running two Intel rigs and just one AMD. It’s just that Intel chips feel destined for server racks and HTPCs. That's where they belong.😛

Total:$1184 Amazon, free assembly and shipping included! Right out of the gate, you've got a solid motherboard paired with a beefy processor that'll handle pretty much any game for years, and it's strong enough that you can slap a high-end GPU in there down the road; plus, you get a reliable power supply and a card that runs games beautifully on medium/high settings. Later on, just toss in another 4GB stick of RAM so you're sitting at 8GB total, swap in a decent graphics card—which is basically a five-minute job and totally painless—and you'll be cruising through everything on max settings for a long time.
Putting that CPU on that piece of junk motherboard is practically a crime punishable by life in prison.
EDIT: Look for a used ASRock 990 FX Extreme 4 (you can find them for about $133 already), or you might even snag a used ASUS Sabertooth 990 FX for a good price. Just stay far away from that Gigabyte trash motherboard.
