It is regular broadband, 25/5. No fiber here.

@amber raptor I know this isn’t the best thing to sponsor
But you should really look into starlink.

Upfront cost. Doesn't make sense
sinful blade
Fiancés grand parents went from only having literally kbps in the back end woods in the middle of no where
To having 500mbps up.
The cost is just barrier to entry
That’s the only kicker
amber raptor
Im looking at less than a year before fiber is here. For 80/month flat.
The cost doesn't make sense. Not only per/month, but the hardware cost.
tranquil pebble
If fiber ever comes to my area I might check the airspace for flying pigs

But what speed and stability are you looking at that $80/m for?

$80/month gets you 0 bps in my area. You pay more than that for the lowest tier.

Don’t get too excited if you hear that they’re putting in fiber because it’ll still be years before they ever get it done

My hometown started with fiber in 2018
It is estimated to be done in 2032
City keeps throwing wrenches in
Original estimate was 2024

Also remember, fiber does not mean you'll be getting high speeds in a plan

The dumb idiot old people on our city board almost declined the vote for fiber installation

Only took like 2 years from when they announced they were putting fiber on my street till they started connecting people on the streets

Hey so genuine question, we went to a stadium that supports 80000+ people last night. We got there super early, they’ve got free WiFi, and I speed tested at around 300mbps. At the beginning of the game at the height of people we were still getting around 250mbps or so. How in the hell do they have that many people on the WiFi and still support it
velvet summit
Population here currently is like 77000? Im not actually sure, lemme check the census

I get 500,000 people in my town every year for a sporting event

If free wifi is always available, for events, then it's probably a permanent install

A mobo with 6 RAM slots and two were reserved for the sole use of iGPU would be cool.
tranquil pebble
the idea is giving the iGPU its own dedicated memory bus so it can be less bottlenecked
low end Nvidias would be screaming in horror lol

Reserved ddr6 slots
CAMM style perhaps
So it can be above and below the cpu while not obstructing clearance with most coolers
