All existing PSU cables should fit the new main board (unless you're using a psu from a dell pc, in which case it will fit with nothing), however depending on the age of it may not have a CPU power cable, which are now pretty much always required. Refer to this link to learn about PSU cables.

In a similar vein (and I have had precisely this exact issue), your PSU may not have the cables for a new GPU down the line, because GPUs now consume ungodly amounts of power. If that's the case, you'll need to replace it then, don't try to use adapters beyond the ones in the GPU box.

Overall i'm not sure this is a great upgrade. You'd be upgrading from a admittedly pretty tired CPU to an ok-to-good one, but you'd be buying into a platform that is already EOL. The advantage, of course, is that you're not spending the money on RAM and older hardware is less expensive. Then, once you're done with this upgrade, you'd still be limited by the now ancient rx480, so your CPU will be running laps around it while it struggles to ouput 30 fps in modern games. The speed of the ram isn't great, but since the GPU is so slow, I don't think it'll really matter.

I'd recommend the following upgrade path:

  • first, upgrade th GPU to a 6000-series AMD card. They're about the best bang for buck right now and you will be able to keep it for a while. You'll probably need to upgrade your PSU when you do this.
  • then, upgrade the rest of the system to an AM5 CPU, with basic ddr5 RAM (no need to splurge on faster), which also includes a motherboard upgrade.
  • finally, upgrade your storage to an nvme drive and take the opportunity to reinstall your os cleanly, because I don't think your install is much less ancient than your gear ;)

This is, unfortunately more expensive, and in the time between the GPU and CPU upgrade, you'll really feel the CPU bottleneck (you'll feel the reverse with your plan anyway). The advantages are that you're buying into a platform that already offers great upgrade paths now, and promises greater ones in the future, as opposed to spending money just to get to the top end on your current platform.

The minimum requirements for kcd2 are a 2600. There's no need to go for a 5800x3d.

Realistiquement les pavés de paris créent plus de vibrations qu'une chute (et sur un plus long terme). Encore une feature créée par des mecs qui vivent dans la silicone valley ou toutes les pistes cyclables sont lisses et où il ne pleut jamais etc.

Even if that worked, these cells will never be able to hold a significant charge.

"I will say a prayer for victory" when all you're doing is bombing people who don't have beyond visual range equipment really is something. Does he expect the houtis to parry the missiles or something?

Yeah, I know. Why would anyone ever use them if creating one required a certificate? If the certificate was so cheap as to not be an obstacle then it wouldn't be a deterrent to malicious replacement of codes either.

Very cool. Why would anyone use qr codes then? When you can just write a url and that's free
