I have just about every generation of Amazon Fire TVs and this one seems to be the fastest yet. It has wifi 6, no problems with any steaming yet. I did buy it on sale, definately a value at $35.

Great RAM for BIG Air Cooler
on March 26, 2021
Posted by: BillsFan
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought these to go int an AMD Ryzen 5800x system that already had 2 of them. Plug and Play. My system has a Noctua DH15 so i needed ram was really short and no led tax for something covered by one of the cpu fans anyways. Plus it was on the Asus memory compatibility for my motherboard. Definately worth checking that!

Samsung NVME is the best
on March 26, 2021
Posted by: BillsFan
Verified Purchase:Yes
I'm overall pretty happy with the 970 EVO Plus NVME, it works great, the one thing i wish i did was look at the 980 because it's not that much of a difference. The funny thing was I watch Linus Tech Tips on youtube video today, he had 3 people and 3 systems, one with a NVME, one with a SSD and one with an HD. He asked the 3 people to seperately say which was which and all 3 got it wrong. Moral of the story i guess is i'd never see the difference.

When building on a budget, the EVGA 600W 80 PLUS is a great choice at a low cost. Supporting 49A on a single +12V rail provides more options without having to reduce your component requirements. Save space with the 600W's compact design, well~placed power switch and fully sleeved cables. The 600W offers the connections and protections needed for basic system builds. With a standard 3 year warranty and ultra quiet fan design the 600W will be a great asset for your next build on a budget.

I like these power supplies because they are a great value and they work without issues. I have purchased several of them over time. Nothing fancy, not modular, plug and play.

Color Smartbulbs

Verified Purchase:Yes
I did get these bulbs on sale from Best Buy which did make them a reasonable purchase for color bulbs. You will have to download the app to set them up. I also had to enable the skill with Alexa to use them with my echo. I had to do a reset on the one bulb and both bulbs did have firmware upgrades available.

Do some research prior to purchase
on December 4, 2020

Verified Purchase:Yes
The Oculus Quest 2 definitely needs a better head strap than comes with it. From what I've been reading online currently Oculus has halted selling the headset because people have been having it break after a very short time. This will probably change once Oculus investigates this. I highly recommend reading up on this headset prior to purchase -- there are alternatives as well. Better to be safe than sorry. Once the issues are worked out I am sure it will be a very good headset.

Power up gaming desktops with this Thermaltake Smart power supply. A continuous 700W power output keeps demanding computer setups energized, while the industry-grade power, voltage and short-circuit protections safeguard sensitive components. This Thermaltake Smart power supply has an embedded 120mm cooling fan that disperses heat efficiently without producing distracting noise.
 

When it says 5 year warranty, if I buy it and it breaks, do I just go to Best Buy and they’ll fix it, and that it’s covered for 5 years?

Warranty listings usally mean manufacturers warranty, anything best buy offers will be thru geek squad which is always extra if available.

Does this fit on a hp pavilion gaming desktop (TG01-0030)

I have a HP Prodesk 600 which I am using this in, This power supply is similar in size to the one in my system but not an exact fit. It fit only 1 way and snapped in but doesn't screw in, but it doesn't move once clipped in.

The other part which made it more difficult was that hp has proprietary motherboard connector and doesnt have a standard 24 pin connector. I managed to find a conversion cable in multiple places for my prodesk that allowed me too convert the 24 pin atx to a 6 pin and a 4 pin on my system.

I looked up your system, http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c06504786.pdf i cant tell if its the same size, but it looks like a similar setup to what i have. The problem is you need some kind of cable the will allow you to plug the power supply into your motherboard. It's probably out there like mine was but you'll have to search for it. Google is your friend.

Is this a cook & carry crockpot? The description does not indicate it is but the picture looks like it would be??

It has a locking top for when it's in the crock. We use it to take out of the house.

Complete your entertainment room with this 43-inch VIZIO television. The 4K UHD 2160p resolution and 16:9 image aspect ratio deliver a cinematic experience, and three HDMI ports let you connect computers or gaming consoles. This VIZIO television is Wi-Fi enabled, so you can watch videos on the Internet or content from streaming sites.
 

I currently have Xfinity for my internet and cable TV. I want to cut the cord on the cable TV. Does this TV connect wireless to my wifi, or do I need to purchase any thing like an ethernet cable? I'm a total novice at this stuff.

Yes the E43-F1 supports WiFi or hook up via an ethernet cable. If your placement of your wifi router is some distance away you may want to consider going to wired/powerline ethernet. The TV has a limited number of apps but it does support chromecast functionality out of the box. I added a Amazon 4k Fire TV Stick to mine because of the apps and that i read somewhere that Amazon had limited support for 4k/HDR apps and visio wasn't on the list of supported TV's. Getting the Fire Stick for $35 on sale took care of both apps and 4k/HDR.
