The Original Ryzen processors changed the game in the PC world in 2017. What about now?
Armed with an original #AMD #Ryzen 5 1600 6 core 12 thread that I bought new back when they were released, I set to work seeing how it compared to other #Intel products from around the same time. Does it still hold up? Spoiler Alert- Oh, yeah, it does.

I've tested both of these cards recently on older hardware, but not on a comparatively newer system. Both are supposed to be PCIe Gen 4 cards, so how did they do? Testing with an i7 #12700KF, we can see whether #AMD or #Intel owns the budget space.

Today I am trying one of the many ways to convert a Master Boot Record drive to the required GUID Partition Table format to be able to download and start using Windows11. The method I am using is from #Microsoft and is one of the suggested methods when moving to #Win11 from 10. How hard is it to convert from #MBR ?

I give the #M22 120mm All In One cooler from #NZXT a good cleaning to see if that was causing Jeremy's cooling problem. He was hitting 95C in idle while the #Gaming PC was on, but there may have been a few things he wasn't telling me. IN any case, I give it a good cleaning and try to determine what's next.

I could buy a cheap Optiplex and throw a Graphics card in to call it a day, but I still had that Xeon, just waiting to be used. Not to mention I still had that Pink ESGaming case sitting on the shelf empty. But would it work? #xeon #rx580 #rx6600xt

I found a #SSD adapter for PCIe Gen 3 #NVMe drives, that is clearly labeled on the box, that it only works for 3rd Generation PC interface. But, I have a 4th Gen drive, did you think I WASN'T going to try it? Some of you know me all too well.
My apologies - I did not qualify for Amazon's Affiliate program and have removed all links. I will consider reapplying and leave a link to find great products at that time.

There are still a few things I need to do to get CoolBlue ready to become my editing rig and one of them is the CPU cooler. I opted for an Air Cooler this time, but with a i7 12700, that means I need something with a little more umph. Enter the AG620WH from DeepCool. This affordable tower style cooler, I know will do the trick, but what if I'm replacing the already good AG400 model? #DeepCool #AG620 #i7

I take a look at the #AMD #Ryzen3 Pro #4350G. With the 2200G, 2400G, 3200G, and 3400G being good processors, you would think this may be, too. Yeah, I think there's a reason they never sold these in the states.
***NOTE - After some research, digging, and trial & error, I got an AMD driver to work with this APU with decent results -- THERE WILL BE A FOLLOW UP VIDEO on this processor*****

After a little consideration, I decided to pick up an #RGB strip to see if I couldn't redeem the poor #ESGaming case that I got on sale. For the $44 I thought the case was enough to keep, but having lighting that didn't work kind of bugged me. #LianLi to the rescue.
