SFX PSU

igx0908 — Sun, 02 Oct 2022 15:51:18 +0800

Hi, I'm trying a SFX build for the first time and looking for available, reliable SFX PSU. Prefer 500W-650W and going to use with 1050Ti. Price range targeting around or less than 450 if possible.

Any recommendations so that I won't end up with a time-bomb?

HDD: SMR vs CMR

igx0908 — Fri, 25 Jun 2021 16:32:57 +0800

I'm looking to purchase an extra 2TB HDD and found this Seagate Barracuda:

ST2000DM008 2TB 7200RPM 256MB (SMR)

My use case will be storing files such as games since my boot drive is just 128GB. I heard SMR is bad and want to know if it is worth to buy it or should I change to the 1TB version that uses CMR?

ST1000DM010 1TB 7200RPM 64MB (CMR)

Just wondering, is it a good time now to purchase and build PC? Planning to get Ryzen 3600 and B450M Steel Legend. Or should wait until after AMD release 4000 series?

So, I received a Altai C1n CPE/AP without its DC Injector. Anyone can suggest me which one I should get? Also, is there a specific rating (volts and ampere) that I need to take note about when buying it online for this model?

Animal Catch Net

So I'm helping a animal shelter to search for catching net for animals like dogs. They got calls for rescue but couldn't do it without the proper equipment. I've tried to search Shopee, Lazada but can't really find a good size (everything is for fish ). Does anyone know where I can purchase that? Any help is appreciated!

Plan suggestion

igx0908 — Mon, 29 Jan 2018 11:36:59 +0800

Hi, as the title suggests, I need suggestion on choosing a good plan for my family. Currently, some of my family members still use the telco's legacy plan which is pricey. So, I need 6 lines and preferably to use Maxis, Celcom or Digi. Is there any good family plans to sign-up for? I prefer to have unlimited calls to all network and about 10GB (more or less is ok) for each line. Thanks

Acer Aspire 4755G Problem

igx0908 — Mon, 01 Jan 2018 22:48:32 +0800

So I got the Aspire 4755G and it can't boot to Windows 7 successfully. It just booted until the windows logo and rebooted itself. Also, booting into a Windows 7 USB Installation Media also failed. It loaded the file and restarted itself in the welcome screen. I tried booting in Safe Mode but it went through. I'm able to access to my desktop and the laptop doesn't reboot. Doing a "sfc /scannow" on the cmd in Safe Mode returns no errors. Anyone know what is the problem?
