Tec stuff, brain is fried!

Updating software, updating drivers, firmware,,doing backups, reading, reading, researching, learning, I wanted another place to backup my backups from my Nas, 2 terabyte. So I got a 4 terabyte external USB drive to plug in my router.
Have to keep everything purring along and secure.
Then I was thinking about getting a hybrid drive to upgrade my laptop ,more research, more reading, more learnin, that ended up in me deciding to upgrade my whole laptop since it is fairly old I3, been wanting a new one, more reading, more research, ended up ordering a 500 GB SSD Laptop, now I will have to set that up and learn Windows 10, but I can't wait, excited about the new laptop.
All this meant no beer for a while, time for a break

 

And here I sit with my spare room full of dos machine with reel to reel storage and on dialup......

 

New pc is smokin fast with i7, and the ssd , 5g wireless , hittin 90 mbps download speed it,s got more bananas man !!

 

You could put Linux on the machine and forget windows.....

 

Which is what I'd do ASAP.
HDRock , does the new 7th gen I7 run warm/hot?

 

Forgetting *doz is hard to do as you have to keep telling folks you know nothing and unless your name is Schultz no-one believes you. Try talking VM to them.

 

Don't really know , as far as I know, I would have to install other software to monitor the temp

 

It does clock up to 3.5 GHz

 

Your bios should be able to tell you.

 

Pencil and paper, lock it in the safe when done.......................for my eyes only.

 

More secure would be off the lan.

 

Mine does 4.5GHz.


ETA: I love a good giggle hertz fight you can get a 7700K to over 5GHz if you don't mind a bit of stress, air cooled even.

 

I'm running a slow poke on here these days a lowly Pi3 is serving as my browsing machine. I can go even slower with one of my smart tvs.
