Electrician here, bedrooms are usually wired up for 15 amps 120v circuit, (15*120=1800w) but the breaker is made to only have a continuous load of 12amps 80% of 15amps (12*120=1440w) so now someone running a computer with a GTX 4090 would probably need to look into running a dedicated 20amp circuit, just for the new PC build.

[jays]

Regarding AMD's buyback, with the acquisition of Xilinx being all stock, they're just preventing excessive share dilution.

Also, I have Frontier 1g/1g and it's $85/mo

[gh]

2:10 Shame about your 110V circuit, aye? Here in the UK, we have 230 Vac @ 13 A. Just shy of 3000 W (or VA if you prefer).

[wskinnyodden]

Hey with 750W during winter you can game instead of turning the heater on. With a vr headset you can ever exercise to also warm up.

[kdoe]

Did Ryan say “investors like that girth!” ? Maybe the growth of the girth? lol

[jakobfindlay]

Holy Balls the 4090 takes more power than my whole system! There's no running 2 PC's off of one breaker anymore

[andrewpoptanich]

I've been playing ESO through the Bethesda launcher. I'm looking forward to the switch to make it easier to use proton with. It apparently works great with the Steam version, but it is hard to download the Bethesda version in Linux.

[mattparker]

a grand for a chromebook, we *are* in the darkest timeline.

[concinnus]

The Peloton rust issue is particularly ridiculous given that rustproofing inside a frame is a fairly cheap operation.

[Derbauer]

It's always great when all 4 of you chime in with your comments, Krista, Wendell, Ryan and last but not the least BoilerSnake.

[weskirkland]

if they keep going like that 4090 were gonna need a 240v outlet for a pc...lol

[floridaman]

Listening to Krista's as the ICBM's land.

[johola]

32:24 you mean real football, where you kick the ball with your foot. not carry it around and throw it.

[randaldavis]

The margins in the grocery business are thin. Much different than the other businesses Amazon is in. If you are going to make a meta verse stadium, why not make it so everyone sits where they want ? Always sit in the best seat for you !!! Make the stadium look like a small scale event. You can decide to be visible to the crowd and who is sitting next to you.

[wwShadow]

The unwritten rule in I.T. is to NEVER work for the same employer twice. A) You're not going to learn anything "NEW". B) there was probably a reason you left / was let go / trust violation.

[florinip]

My internet plus cable is 13$ per month for 940 mbps 😁

[nycameleon]

14:30 Jeff is like Snoke with the giant face in the board room screaming at the General Hux

[frankthetankricard]

Former Vodafone customer here from Europe. They're the worst ISP I've ever encountered. Any company they buy out goes to absolute shit. Good luck to frontier customers!

[idontwantachannelimjustcom]

Call of duty runs out of content.

Russia: don't worry comrad, hold my vodka. We got you.

[ivorthomas]

Thank you for at least mentioning the #Ukraine, I know you are limited in what you can say on youtube but I left comments on all my US friends channels and you are the only ones that mention them at all. I'm not sure which planet most people are living on but the blaming of the Ukraine over rasism now is an easy cop out. Aren't people allowed to improve? #VladamirPutin has no blame whatsover if we follow that rhetoric.
