Rants etc.....

New Adata SX8200 Pro showed up today. Already had one of the 'gimped' ones that is substantially slower than the OG. New one is almost 10% at small file low queue depth performance.

Waited till 5.30pm for it to be delivered as I had planned to RAID 0 both to get a 4TB partition. But the performance is too substantial. :(

It's not just Adata. They are all doing it now. Though some are at least redoing the SKU's in an attempt to avoid confusion.
Basically if you buy an SSD, you may or may not know what you are actually getting. Regardless of the brand.

damn it. seems my week of pain in the ass isn't over, I hooked up my z5500 and there's a crackling coming out of every speaker no matter what I hook them up to or how 3.5/optical so now I am shopping for I guess a 5.1 receiver or a whole new setup which I have heard the z906 are not even close to the z5500 This SUCKS

Not a dirty switch/contact/connector or potentiometer is it? Those are always the first suspects for the crackles. Next would be iffy solder joints.

Edited for clarity.

Ya the first thing I did was get out the contact cleaner but I have heard online that this is a common problem with them over the years and most say its the decoding chip in the control pod overheating I really don't know whats going on I think I am going to open up the pod and give it a good cleaning see if I get lucky

I could reflow the joints but I only have a basic heat gun to do it with and have used it before for reflows its just not easy lol, like any reflow is
 
was bored spent many hours adding mods to Skyrim then played it for a short while was bored again, then yesterday I decided to kill more time adding mods to Skyrim and again several hours later I finish I start a new game walk along and speak to a male whos voice is female , so I walk to a female her voice is female I go to another male and his voice is male I keep doing this and realize that some of the voices for females come on males and some of the male voices are coming out of female Uggg I might as well remove every Mod I added and start from scratch. nothing like walking to a bar in game and walking up to the bar made and She has a deep male voice its was like the old Benny hill tv show hehe.
also adding mods I wanted two add two mods but the prereqs had to add other mods which also needed prereq mods so for me to add two mods and of course by now I totally forgotten which two they are I had to add in 30- 60+ other mods .
then also to top all that stuff I go to youtube to check on a few videos and it is asking me again for my proof of age .
 
I stalled fresh windows updated it to the latest windows 10 version , now I have been stiuck tring to use the backup to reinstall all my stuff from windows and of course it has been stuck at 18% for the past 3 hours I really hope I dont have to do another fresh install the install doesnt take to long its just installing all my programs and remembering all the pws for all the sync in those programs
 
crap so just tried to use MBR2GPT.exe to convert my legacy MBR to UEFI so if I want to upgrade to windows 11 I can on this pc but of course it couldn't find the os partition which seems to be a common problem, I have tried everything besides rebuilding the BCD which I dont even think I can do with out the bootable media
 
so now with new install of windows and steam installed I have to figure out how to be able to connect steam back to all my games in my Steam library on a different hard drive which at the moment steam wont let me do I really dont want to have to redownload all of my games again
