I'm on 6th gen, I'll wait for 11th/12th. 11th for AV1 decode, 12th for huge single/multi performance increases.



Start linking some.



10th gen processors are compatible with Win11. It's only 7th gen and older that might not be officially supported.

The guy on the street corner screaming to the clouds is also warning people about something. But I don't put a lot of faith into it until he can cite some sources.

You can literally find someone online to support any crack pot theory you can dream of. Google lizard people and flat earth, for example. So simply searching "is wifi bad" doesn't really do much without actual scientific evidence as proof. Seeing how your response continues to be" just do your own searching", this tells me there isn't any hard data, or you'd be pushing it forward. Just because some people who collectively decided to agree it's bad and find comfort in their echo chamber doesn't mean it actually is.

Anything above 400nm wavelength (i.e., visible light, infrared, microwave, radio wave) is non-ionizing. It simply does not have the energy to remove electrons from atoms which is how gamma rays cause damage.

There is no way you are going to be harmed by any far-field radio waves (wifi, cell phone, 5g). It's just simply not possible based on physics.

You get 100x more ionization from 10 mins in midday sun than you do from strapping a cell phone with 5g on your head for 1 year.

I'm PC architecture illiterate. So that sounds like a "no" without having to spend $100's more dollars, right?
$150 currently, but you're correct.

I just bought one of these refurbished on eBay yesterday. $169 for the i3 10th gen, 32gb ram, and a 500gb SSD.

So desktop doesn't have wifi support and need Ethernet ? Given it has only two usb a ports too!
You can buy get an m2 wifi/bt card for these machines on eBay for about 10 bucks. Check what exact slot the machine has. (E,B or M I think) Make sure you pick one that comes with antennas. That's what I did. Works great. I also added another 8gb.

It's actually cheaper than a USB dongle with similar specs (not to mention another bt dongle of you need it)

Did anyone else think it came with a 3080 GPU? Product naming definitely confused me.

This is a used off lease computer that was probably used quite heavily in a business setting. It has a tiny hard drive that most people will need to upgrade and a a cpu that is 3 generations old. A current gen i3 will run circles around this thing.

There is absolutely no "deal" here. At best, this is fair market value for a 3 year old machine that, even in its day, had low end specs.

That being true, do these have any type of warranty?

I bought a refurbished one from Amazon about a year ago and it already stopped working.

ok, so you found Wifi is harmful.

and your point is ???

next do a deep dive into Cell Phones and come back. basics of EMF people, very basic; 5G gets even more interesting. bonus points if you unravel how dangerous 5 G is.

most will just Drive By, please don't be that guy.
A deep dive into what legitimate literature?

I believe 90 day warranty. The main problems with a computer like this are the power supply and hard drive. They can go out at any time… maybe after a few weeks, maybe after a few years.

pay attention to the subject; come back and tell me what you have learned about wifi, emf, 5G et al.

if anything.

if you have children, what effect does wifi have on them? do you turn it off at least at night? if not, why not?
So no legitimate sources then?
