    Plex pc specs

    I got the Beelink SEi10 in the end. Good value and the product seems really good quality. Wiped win11 and got it running Ubuntu server on the 500gb nvme drive. Popped a 2tb ssd inside for videos and it runs Plex really nicely.

    Do you change DNS?

    Never heard of quad9 until I just read this thread. I'll give it a try, always used google for some reason or another.. Hopefully not a classic case of "if its not broken - why did you fix it..." :o:o

    Cigarette smoke in xps

    Thanks for the suggestions.. Over time the smell has lessened.. I guess I'll try again with the alcohol but I'm not really willing to pull it all apart even if it's just a few hundred quid..

    Retropie on a RP5?

    Wow thanks. I skipped to the saturn games and solid 50 or 60fps. Pretty amazing. Virtua Cop brings back memories! I guess I better try and find a RP5 to buy now..

    Retropie on a RP5?

    Nice video, shame he didn't mention Sega saturn! I might have to take the plunge.. I keep hearing crazy stats like it's x2 better than the rp4..

    Retropie on a RP5?

    Has anyone tried if it's any good for "later" consoles? Specifically the sega saturn.. The rp4 performance was kinda unplayable..

    Cigarette smoke in xps

    2nd hand... I've tried airing it out with a fan.. Tried wiping all the surfaces with isopropyl alcohol, even took the back cover off and wiped what I could there, without getting things too wet.. But when it's running hot... the smell just comes back.. Even on the fingers from the keys. It...

    I have a 500/500 connection and get about that on speedtest (Hyperoptic). On my tp-link ax50 I have an openvpn server (it's in the router config). I only get about 10/10 when using the connection on my phone (I get 50/20 on 5g). I'm just wondering if this is about what you can expect from...

    Has the "GPU Voucher" subforum gone? Or... have I lost permission somehow?

    I've never seen it, but apparently someone told me this was the link: https://www.overclockers.co.uk/forums/community/183 But it's always just said 'You do not have permission to view this page or perform this action.' for me.
