be quiet! PURE POWER 12 M 1200W

Image
The new game, Starfield , is the first game that crashes my PC all the time. It seemed to suck out all 850W of my PC's PSU.  Well, Starfield is still buggy and un-optimised but as my RTX 4090 is recommended to have a 1000W PSU, I got the itch and upgraded PSU to  be quiet! PURE POWER 12 M 1200W . Installation was a breeze. I run 3DMark again and here's the latest score so connections seem to be all good (eg no unintentional cable disconnection): Hopefully, no more crashes when playing with Starfield in ultra settings.

  Score was 25036 about a year ago so probably just need some system tweaking, if I can be bothered.

FTTC to FTTP Upgrade

We recently took an offer for a free FTTP (Fibre to the Premises) upgrade by Aussie Broadband (250/20 plan). Installation was a breeze. Sample Speedtest result:

Chamberlain RollerLift Plus Roller Garage Door Opener

I installed this today. It took me almost 4 hours as existing setup is not 100% compatible. Happy with the result but, boy, I'm knackered!

PlayStation VR2

I pre-ordered this last year at EBGames and finally I got it during its release last Feb 22, 2023: Way much better than PSVR1! I can't wait to train my VR 'legs' as I still get nauseous :-)

Again, installation was a no-brainer. Now, cargo area is fully protected.
