[Tihskael]

So over the next month we will get BG3, Starfield, Armored Core and Elden Ring DLC on the horizon. WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?

Also the DLC for Cyberpunk. I hope they nail this one; cautiously optimistic.

Samsung 980 Pro SSD 2TB PCIe NVMe

PCI-E is the slot, and I have such a port. NVM-E is what, a protocol? How do I check if I support that on my motherboard?

You have a fucking enthusiast mobo that costs $300, but don't even have an SSD or know how to install it. Your average PC user in 2023, more money than brains.

 

[whydoibother]

Protip: Keep your motherboard box when building a new PC and throw all extra screws and such in there. The screws for m.2 drives will already be in the box.

Achievement unlocked: kept the box, but threw away the screw.
Or, more likely, I used it for something else.

I bought it for half that, and I do have an SSD, its just smaller and plugged with a SATA interface. Although I do wish now I had paid someone else to build this shit, because the CPU heatsink and fan I installed are too large and too in the way of everything.
Anyways, stay poor, stay mad, stay butthurt that I am building up my machine and everyone here is friendly and helpful.

Imagine thinking that I'm poorer than someone from literally the poorest country in the EU. Just because I didn't overpay for worthless stuff that enthusiast mobos offer doesn't mean my PC is some junk.

You could've easily googled all the stuff you were asking here instead of clogging up the thread with tech support questions you'd expect cucksole converts to ask.

If you can read the visual chart in your motherboard manual and operate a screw, you can install an Nvme. If you cannot do those things, you can send some of your welfare money to a semi-sentient IT person to do it for you.

But doctor, I am Pagliacci.
I'm just waiting for my semi-sentient IT person workday to be over, so I can shut down the PC and try to DIY install a screw.

Did you seriously just need a tutorial to install a fucking SSD

 

[Raghar]

Why this turned into thread about CPUs and other stuff?

You can't use it for something else. It's tinny shit that tends to fall into slots and short them, and into PSU, and if you are lucky it vaporizes without harming PSU.

Did you seriously just need a tutorial to install a fucking SSD

Yes it's difficult, and he's Bulgarian.

And I kinda wonder why everyone is screaming about SSDs.

I upgraded my mobo recently and when I went to reinstall my cpu cooler I discovered that it had only come with AM3 mounting brackets. "No problem," I thought, "I'll just pop on over to Microcenter and get the new AM5 mounting brackets. Should only cost a few bucks." Fuckers didn't sell mounting brackets separately. They tried to sell me an entire cooler. Granted, they had already set me up with a great deal on the mobo/cpu bundle itself and I only had to wait a couple days for the brackets to come through Amazon, but it's the principle of the matter.

 

[Yosharian]

I'll just pop on over to Microcenter

I mean there's your problem right there

 

[Crispy]

Microcenter has always been p. solid, afaik. We don't have them in CA (at least where I live) but I wish we did. Would be a nice alternative to Best Buy.

Nobody asked for a tutorial or anything like that. I posted a timestamped video that showed the one single area that I have had friends ask me about. Any help coming from me was just being thourough to make sure he didn't run into any problems.

If you have any experience with installing drives then this is not needed. But I thought this video would be helpful just in case.

Anyone trying to help or seeking help shouldn't be a problem anyways. The only problem is assholes who shit on people for helping / learning.

Can we please get this thread back on track?

Here is a picture of Todd Howard with fabulous hair.

I was staying away from Starfield promo but I just watched a bit and I have to say I love how the cockpit looks.

While drunk last night I had a revelation. I shall roll a Barbarella in this game.

You must have been positively wasted to think you will be able to make an attractive character.

What are you talking about, this is a Creation Engine game. The only problem with Ulysa picture is that the tits and ass aren't fat enough for most bodyslide presets.

What is it about this game in particular, that attracts the most rabid anti-"woke" people? Why are all the racist, mysoginist guys on the codex in this thread?
I feel sorry for you guys, even if you live in a East European country that's 100% white (LOL EEs are white now?) when you go outside, 50% of the people you see around are ones you hate anyway: women. Must be painfull.

 

[Hag]

I'm actually really curious about this game. As JA3 and BG3 have turned out to be way better than expected, maybe Bethesda got its shit together and it will be good. Won't change anything for me since I won't buy the game on release, but we could use more (or any for that matter) decent space game.

And if it's stumble then at least I'm sure the bugs videos will be hilarious.

What do you mean "this thread"? People who made an anti-God of woke, and rush to signal how pious they are by denouncing the evil woke every post they write, are in every thread.

Kurt sounds more interesting than any other character in Cyberpunk. Hopefully you can side with him in the game.

Uh, you don't read a lot of game threads here, do you?
