I had a 2620 v2 and got me a 2690 v2 off ebay for 20 $, 10c/20t. Best in slot, imho and dirt cheap. That’s what I would recommend. I delidded the 2620 and made it a key fob

Usually you can extract the windows updater exe and use the bios/bin/upd file via mainboard bios update mechanisms

Do you have examples?

Mplayer? What year is it? I thought everyone is on mpv now 8-)

Sadly not so much for me. Minimize/maximize animation stutters, mouse stutters if explicit sync is enabled (unrelated to min/maximizing, had to disable it), some windows dont maximize to the right size and hovering taskbar overlaps. I’ll have to look into it and maybe open bugs. Only used 6.1beta for a few hours so far

Back in the day, the rule was mbit (megabit) for data in transfer (network speed) and MB (megabyte) for data at rest, like on HDDs

My family is very satisfied with 6 mbit/s per stream. Some HEVC, most H264. They see it as high quality. 3 Streams would be 18 to 20 Mbit/s
