Chinese X79 Motherboard To The Rescue (Again)!

Added 2023-03-01 00:58:47 +0000 UTC

"Was I a good CPU?" The AMD FX-8350, the budget king of CPUs back in 2012, has not aged well over the last 11 years. But don't throw out that old gaming rig just yet! If you've got working storage, memory and a power supply, you can rebuild it faster than ever before. With a Chinese X79 Motherboard and Xeon CPU of course!

But first... What am I drinking???

The Rogue Dead Guy Ale is a staple of craft beer drinkers the world over, and now it comes in IPA form! The Rogue Dead Guy IPA clocks in at 7.0%, and might just be the best beer in the series!
