AMD Ryzen 3 Review PCPer's Ryan Shrout joins us to talk about the performance of AMD's new 4 core Ryzen 3 1300X and 1200 Processors ($129/$109) vs. Intel's Core i5-7500 and the performance per dollar leader the Pentium G4560. Check the video if you're building a cheap PC!
Tiny Apps on High Res Monitors Zebulon's scored a 4K Ultra HD 3840 x 2160 monitor, but some apps are too tiny to use without changing the monitor to 1080P. Do we have a fix? Watch the video to find out what we do, and "Microsoft May Never Fix the High DPI Issues in Windows 10“ is a good read!
Cheap LED Light Bulbs? Bill writes, "Do you have any current recommendation for good low cost lightbulbs? The ones that they recommend on sweethome.com are priced higher than I was hoping for." Bad news, we use the same Cree bulbs they recommend, good news, Amazon has the same 4 pack of bulbs for half the price!
Do Something Analog! Like Ricky, who writes, "I don't know if this counts as #analog, but this weekend i went to kauai for my bday; left the laptops at home in Honolulu, & flew my mavic all weekend. Also went chasing spots that only had “E” or lower for signal strength on my phone." Awesome video, Ricky!
