Oh jeez, all my logos say I have been doing business here for 30 years. Yeah, 10 years ago. 40 years now! I really should fix those logos.

I recently upgraded my gaming system and now have some very good used parts at very good prices that I can use to build a serious gaming system. It won't be great to look at by today's standards, no window or RGB lighting, but it will be a killer system for gaming or general use. It will have 64 gigs DDR5 PC38400 4800MHz RAM, Ryzen 7 9800X3D or 7800X3D, AIO water cooling, ASUS X670-Plus WiFi mothrboard, 1 TB NVMe solid state drive and graphics of your choice. The base price with the 9800X3D and no graphics will be about $1500. The RAM alone is worth nearly $1,000. Give me a call if you have interest. 628-1108. WIth a graphics card you could be in to a high end gaming rig for about $2000 or less. This is the box/computer only, but I can also sell peripherals if needed.

The latest plague…… I am seeing a significant number of customers now complaining about a massive amount of notifications popping up on their computers making it nearly impossible to use the computer. These are browser notifications fed to the computer by a web site through whatever browser you use, usually Chrome or Edge. This happens when a web site asks for permission to send notifications, probably in a manner that doesn’t sound like it’s going to spam your computer with notifications, and you click “Yes”. Then the fun begins as notifications fill the right side of your screen. They are usually scam notifications claiming you have a virus and asking you to click on something to fix it, which then allows them to try to sell you something or even infect your computer with malware.

The fix is to turn off notifications in the browser settings. Go in to settings, then privacy and security. Then search for “notifications”. Block the ability for web sites to even ask for permission to send notifications. If you already have some sites that you have given permission to, delete or block those sites as well.

Speaking of browsers, Chrome, and any other Chrome-based browser (Edge and Brave come to mind) have removed the ability to block ads. So if you are starting to get more ads and pop-up ads that’s why. There is no fix because the underlying code to block ads has been removed from these browsers completely. If you want to be able to block ads on web sites the only option now is to use the Firefox browser along with the uBlock ad blocker. I have been using and recommending Firefox for decades. It is by far the best browser on the web for privacy and security.

With the Windows 11 rush behind us (you did get rid of Windows 10, didn't you?), we now look towards Christmas and the new year. Be aware, memory (RAM) chips have gone up by 100% to 700%, depending on the type. DDR5 RAM, which is the RAM used in current technology has gone up by about 500% so far. The reason is RAM manufacturers are producing less consumer RAM in favor of RAM for AI servers, which make them more money. All devices that use any type of RAM are going to go up in price a LOT next year. Things that use RAM that everyone uses are phones, TVs, tablets, vehicles, well, pretty much any electronic device actually. Things will get interesting.
