it could be, I'm going off videos and stuff, not my research

I think it was closer to 15 million

seriously, really helps learn troubleshooting too, not just throw and error number at you and close.

I'm not saying someone should, but they could. and necessity trumps efficiency every time.

could be a simple hot spot cell backup, like for reporting network outage, remoting in to certain devices, etc. essentially a secondary ISP to report on main isp and troubleshoot. especially if you have smart devices you could reboot remotely.

was a pretty popular case, went to my nephews place and he got the same one when he built his computer. it's HUGE.

i can only imagine he thought it was broken, he left

this case - Corsair 4000D - https://amzn.to/40uje6R

this keyboard - Steelseries Apex Pro - https://amzn.to/48zfXVP

and a week later, this case - Thermaltake Core V2 - https://amzn.to/48BL96M

the thermaltake case i had just bought one a month prior to setup as a backup Truenas server, they Corsair case and keyboard went to my kid's rig after we cleaned it. haven't found any major issues, every once in awhile the lights ont he keyboard go wonky, so we just unplug it, wait 10 seconds, and plug it back in. all keys work perfectly find.

thermal paste? lol

hard for me, neighbor likes to throw away computer cases when he upgrades, got a nice mechanical steel series keyboard too. my son and I cleaned it up, filled it with parts and now he has a decent computer. saved me $300 retail and he learned how to test things to make sure they worked, like io cables and whatnot. win win.
