Just found this post, here's a few from me, sorry if I missed a post with them in:
Spirited (on prime, might be ex-BBC, funny & well crafted ghost story. You don't even learn what the name is about until the second series)
Pose (on netflix, performances, writing, humour are STUNNING but not a...
The first lockdown was fine for me but the later ones were a real struggle with anxiety (had my first jab last week and that really helped, it was like I was letting out a breath I hadn't realised I'd been holding in). I dug out the exercise bike and started cycling. I'm working my way through...
Baldur's Gate three, for me. I can't bring myself to join the early access and ruin it by overplaying the start and falling in love with a character that can't progress so I'm making myself wait.
And two other things you should be aware of, if you are privacy conscious, are duckduckgo for a search engine and the cloudflare DNS:

Lets hope proof of stake reduces the energy waste that comes from mining! https://www.vice.com/en/article/pkby7z/a-fossil-fuel-power-plant-that-mines-bitcoin-is-about-to-massively-expand?fbclid=IwAR1A04A8h63SykATUEAwznlFmFvrszQfPVqIDCtdDfovAcI1S4lV_MpZ0CU
I'm thinking about this too (as an upgrade through PCS), but my system has a 2700x on a X470. Part of me knows I'd barely notice the difference in gaming, part of me worries about how much of the 5800x's grunt I'd even see on that mobo.
You're as right as anyone is. Putting things above and below a divisor makes it clear, as does adding additional brackets, but then people don't argue, so the clickbait doesn't work...
As a Maths lecturer, this one never stops giving me grief - I have a session on it for a foundation year class I give. Fundamentally, it is deliberately written poorly to provoke confusion - you can do the same with sentences, it doesn't make the writer clever or the reader dumb, it is just poor...
I don't think buying a (at least) third hand laptop from someone, with no paperwork, is going to give you any grounds at all to complain to PCS. I'm not surprised they can't give you info on the original purchaser, there are data protections issues here.

It lets you remove and fit cables as needed, so it is easier to fit and more adaptable for changes down the line: https://techguided.com/what-is-a-modular-power-supply/
Edited for fat fingers, and to add: PCS builds send you all the spare cables etc. with the PC, so you can tinker with stuff as...
Also, the RMX models are fully modular, rather than semi-modular, like the TXm ones (not that the TXm are poor quality, they are good bits of kit). As SteveyG says, it is better for them not to be working flat out and it is a good idea to have headroom for future GPU upgrades.
If it is just a placeholder so they can test the system, there are cheaper ones from the other (none m.2) drive menu. I only ask because with that CPU you have access to some superfast drives!
