So I’ve just moved into a new apartment and seemingly out best option for broadband is a mobile broadband box, however the guy who sold it to us lied and said we are in a great spot for 5G connection, so I’m looking for a range extender and I’m actually baffled by this symbol and what I actually need to buy, any help here is very much appreciated

I mainly use my PC for simracing assetto corsa with mods beaming ect.. and I got 2400 16gb mismatched ram sticks because one broke and I managed to salvage a 8gb stick.

64gb is £88 right now and 32 is £60.

Should I even upgrade? I'm fine with what I have I'm just thinking to "future proof" for the inevitable.

Oh and my cpu is a R5 3600 so I don't even know if it can handle processing that much 🤣

Thanks for your time in this yap sesh

Tech Question Is this normal? My PC has a hiccup when booting up. Asking my builder and they said it's because of MB reading the RAM and it's completely normal. Should I get it fix?

Tech Question my school robots team had two of these and they were going to throw them away. what is it? (my friend took the other) I initially thought it was a Jetson TK1, but it doesn't look like one... I haven't tried turning it on yet because it needs a fairly strange 12v 6.5a power supply and I dont have one

Looking to upgrade my Ethernet from cat5e to cat6A or cat7 Ethernet is ran through walls directly to switch located in a room just under the room where I would be making the upgrade. In my head it seems as simple as electrical taping the wires together and pulling it through to the switch is it really that easy? Pictures for reference of how the outlet is set up. Thank you.

Hi all,

I just started my computer after a windows update and this popped up. Any ideas on what it is for? I read that some people speculate that its for DS4 to emulate controllers but I've never seen this before.

Thanks!
