In 2019 I wanted to start putting something new together. Unfortunately, the crypto market had exploded, and I staunchly refuse to pay inflated prices for a GPU. Until they return to MSRP, I'm still using 5014, despite its age beginning to show and software support for Windows 7 slowly fading.
"Why dontcha just 'upgrade' to Windows 10?"
Because unlike that disaster-fire, 7 works exactly the way I want it to,
and I'm already tired of constant software updates and Microsoft's shit.
"Bububut you can't use that because SECURITY!!!1"
| Made 2014-03 | Establishing battlefield control, stand by... |
Due to "using PC5014 with the door closed raises my room's temperature by 10°" reasons, I've decided to replace it with something similarly-specced but much lower-wattage.
