𓀐 @QAhiFPPF: Duronaut and MX-7 should be good enough for most people. Get Duronaut if you prefer to use a paste spreader, MX-7 just needs the cross application (draw X and let the cooler mounting pressure handle the rest). >what should I use to clean off the thermal paste on my CPU after removing the heat sink? You can use disposable lens wipes if you have them. Arctic sells MX Cleaning Wipes, but they leave behind a very strong odor. They updated the formula following customer feedback, dispose the used wipes to your outdoor trash bin asap. Noctua also sells disposable wipes, but they're pricier. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09R1TMXR3 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07MZ4K67Y+

𓀐 @tXvPv_9N: it's kind of insane but I actually think the pc parts prices are going to crash overnight next week because trump literally destroyed the US with his AI policy, we have people vibecoding the entire adobe suite and full games that play into browsers now, the US is the country that loses the most with that because the US companies are the ones that sell digital services to the rest of the world, how did they not notice that was going to happen? when he loses the house and the senate they will force him to halt the AI expansion and censor AI models to save those companies but it might be too late already due to how close the chinese are with their models something is going to happen with regards to AI starting next week and it will have a bearish tone to it, some slowing down needs to happen and that means relief for the consumers+ 2

𓀐 @zKDtL~vd: I am tired of searching and waiting. I spent 1 year looking and searching. for the perfect monitor. Deciding IPS or OLED or MiniLED or VA. What resolution. Is dual mode worth it? What about burn in? Maybe the next miniled will be better. Maybe the next oled will be better. Maybe pulsar monitors will be better. Maybe I should get a TV. Maybe I should get a bigger desk. Maybe I should buy nothing. What size should it be. I know now. The perfect monitor does not exist. I waited and waited for RGB Stripe only for it to have poor uniformity, green tint shift, panel lottery and low brightness and more reflections than mirrors. The OP says just wait a few more months bro this time we'll fix it bro. Samsung Display is laughing. LG Display is laughing. They make two panels, both with massive pros and cons. They make one tiny improvement each year hike the prices and then repeat the cycle. Now they say next year monitor prices are all going up because we live in hell and this industry is cursed. I am buying this one. I will definitely have buyers remorse. I will definitely wonder if I should have waited. I will definitely be mad when the prices drop. I don't care any more. I'm so tired.+
