Buying a Cheap Product and Getting a Surprising Upgrade: A Personal Experience
I recently purchased a 16GB module from a company, which arrived a few days later. I plugged it in, but didn't detect anything like I expected. I thought maybe I should initialize the drive by going through Windows and starting a simple volume, but that didn't work out. The drive to the USB port didn't detect the drive, even when I tried plugging it into different computers. Feeling frustrated, I contacted the company, asking if there was a way for a replacement. They told me that I could just file an RMA and they would send me a new unit. That's how I ended up receiving a 128GB USB 3.0 drive instead of the 16GB module I originally bought.
While it may seem like a mistake, I actually consider myself lucky. Instead of getting a completely new product that met my expectations, I received something even better. The 128GB drive is a great deal, and I'm excited to use it. I still don't know what's inside the drive, so I'll have to check it out later. This experience has taught me to be patient and understanding when dealing with companies and their products.
Unboxing the Asus Rog G20 Desktop PC
I recently received a package from Asus, containing the Rog G20 desktop pc, as well as some additional accessories. The first thing that caught my attention was the compact design of the computer. It's much smaller than I expected, making it perfect for small spaces. The box also included a keyboard and mouse, which are great additions to the system.
As I took a closer look at the G20, I noticed the LED lighting inside, which is a nice touch. The machine comes with all the necessary cables and I/O ports, including USB ports, HDMI, and an Ethernet port. One of the most impressive features is the fully fledged GTX 1080 graphics card, which I'll be testing out in more detail later.
The Rog G20 is definitely going to be a great addition to my workshop, and I'm excited to test it out against other systems, like the Corsair one that's sitting nearby. In this article, I'll be comparing the performance of these systems, including overclocking capabilities using various software.
Testing Motherboards: Auto OC Features
I've recently acquired three motherboards, all from different manufacturers, and I'm excited to test their auto-OC features. To do this, I'll be installing each processor on its respective motherboard and testing them individually. The first motherboard I tested was the 7600K, which I've had for a while but never gotten around to using.
The 7600K has an impressive turbo clock of 5.6 GHz, but when I ran stress tests, it only reached 4.6 GHz. While this is still a great performance, I'm eager to see what the other two motherboards can do. The next motherboard on my list is the more that's sitting inside this case, and then finally, the ass walk.
I've tested each motherboard using different software to find out which one can overclock the processor to the highest speed. This will be a fun experiment, as I'll be putting these systems through their paces and comparing their performance. In future articles, I'll be sharing my findings on which system comes out on top.
My Studio: A Messy Workspace
Before I wrap up this article, I want to take a moment to talk about my studio. As you can see from the picture, it's a bit of a mess. I sleep here at night, and as such, there are always cables and equipment scattered around. I try to keep everything organized, but it seems like no matter how hard I try, things just get messy again.
Despite the chaos, I love working in my studio. It's where I can be creative and focus on my projects. While it may not be the most conventional workspace, it works for me, and I'm excited to share more content with you all from this space.
