And the Gigabyte B550 Aorus Elite V2 MB (5,590).

Same M/B but at Advice is 4.950

Also Recommended   RAM DDR4(3200) 16GB (8GBX2) CORSAIR VENGEANCE LPX BLACK  -  2,870 baht....

Need to rebuild my PC, M/B + CPU + Graphic Card are 11 years old and failing….

The AMD Ryzen 5 - 5600G fits my needs [all my PC’s over the years have been AMD]

Find it odd, the CPU @ Advice 7,950 baht,  Banana IT and JIB and are bit more but still in the 8,xxx, but Lazada are crazy, most 9 - 11,000 something baht, then they go right up to 21,000 baht all appear the same

Am I missing something ??

 Ryzen 5 - 5600G

Gigabyte B550 - M/B

3200 - 16 GB Ram

myself find it easier to use a USB stick and download to this stick on PC > then plug into my Android box.....

also helpful   https://troypoint.com/    lots of how to and Apps

X96 Air, had it a few years Android 9, still works fine...............................  

will wait for Android 12  then think about upgrading 

For the past 6 years or so I get every so often a email from my Cousin, another came yesterday..

Always delete as he died over 6 years ago..........  it is a very odd email address he used for years, saying no one what hack it......... looks like someone did !!

Eye test at the Eye/ear Hospital 12 years ago = have cataract in both eyes, Dr said only have the Opp if they cause a problem.  then went every 6 months to the Eye Hospital at the Red Cross, the Dr said the same...

Now they are getting worse, but in my 70's is it worth having done ?  with Covid still about will wait for 6 months or so...

At that time the estimate was 10.000 baht per eye [Opp] + around 15.000 per eye for the lenses .. guess prices have gone up ?  worn glasses since a kid

It may not be called the ISP team, but there is the equivalent for AIS ( I use 3BB ) I just request a callback from the team. The same guy has always called me back, he can speak English and he's always really helpful. It might not be the same day, If you have an issue at specific times then he will organize his time, they can run tests on their end, logs can be checked if necessary and if need be log into your machine remotely with anydesk or teamviewer. 

So to up date,  the AIS Team remotely monitored my Connection for a week, then phoned and said they had fixed many problems and hopefully the IPS address would now stay in Thailand.....

In the past 9 days they have phoned 3 times to check...........  now 3 weeks and appears all is now fine, always can connect to Thai sites + my TV programmes have never stopped working .....  4 months of hell now fixed

Many thanks [call the AIS ISP Team]   no idea what the problem was, but is now fine again

for many years always used 'Yves Rocher', mostly shaved 2x a day,  came here with 4 bottles in 2003, long since ran out, never used anything since... now in my 70's don't bother to shave more than 1x a week now a days..  [have a goatee for 50 years = trim 1x a week and shave]

What's the purpose of a vaccine exempt letter? 

No idea...  maybe if I had a accident or something.......  it is well over a year old never been asked or used it.

and do you know any doctors that would advice you not to get vaccinated? I mean other that Dr, trump who got his medical degree from trump university. 

Yes,  my Dr advice me not to get vaccinated + sent me to another Dr/Professor in a different Dept, that gave me a Vaccine exempt letter to carry at all times...  the next house down in the Village Dr Advised the Cousin, not to get vaccinated but she did because of pressure from work, 2 days later she died...

My Partners office [50 people] everyone had to be vaccinated + they all have had the booster shots, a older guy is again down with Covid = the 4th time ........  also 17 people that I personally know of here have had Covid after being fully Vaccinated 

 in UK my Cousin is just getting over Covid, her husband [both in there 70's]  was yesterday still in Hospital with bad Covid, they have had all there Vaccines + Booster shots.....    as have the boys + wives yet got Covid

No idea maybe the Vaccine + Booster do not work on some people very well?

Every country except Syria are on board with the climate scientists findings that climate change is man made. 

they send rain making plane up every so often, so yes is man made

My Dr says doses every day is NOT  effective, .. a larger dose 1 x a week is far more  effective.

No idea my Dr is a older man a Professor @ Chula Hospital, I just do what he advises

Mid 2020 my Dr put me on 40,000 units Vitamin D   1x a week.  as medical conditions = cannot have the Covid Vaccine .... 

Do go out and about 2 or 3 times a week + everyday have things to to in the garden so get about 2 hours of sun per day...  So far so good.

Stop complaining, Fatty.????

I am not complaining, just funny coming from a Dr that is 5' nothing with little feet......  me 6'3 + size 14 feet

Depends what you want and are looking for + age

2003 had a 3 bedroom house built in a small Village, is what we wanted.....  No way would I have moved here to live in some Condo in a City...   best move ever made + if rented for 18 years would have fully paid for a house twice over and still have nothing

Now aged 71 if was just arriving then rent = end of days why own

Should you have a static IP address?  I pay extra to have one.  

 

Sounds like you are connected to the Tor Network somehow, bouncing off servers around the world, but you are not.

 

Is this your own connection?  Do you pay the bill, directly to the company?  

 

When you run a speed test on your phone, does the same thing happen?  

Pay direct to AIS, Contract ends April, so maybe will change back to True....

Real problem is with the TV both on PC connected and on my Android 9 Box 5G Wi-Fi

but also like yesterday could not sign-in to Lazada, so went to https://www.bigc.co.th/  = Forbidden !! so check my IP was New York

I'm confused also, I know many Thai men that have 2 wives, most all get along fine together, often all get together both wives and kids from both

2 houses down the Village her husband comes most days for a hour of 3, but is always with is 1st wife at night,  1st wife son is 23. the 2 girls in the Village are now 19 and the other is 20.  they were babies when I moved here.....  the 1st son often also comes [how do you call her? dads 2nd wife]   there are at least 3 others I know with the same set up

And again three underaged boys have an accident on motorbike, and we blame the crossings. Well, that´s a big step back to cave-living-IQ, or to presume a stage that they never left.

What about blaming uncaring, irresponsible parent, not enough policing and punishment. That as well as the government have not found out a way to provide a cheap public transport in all places needed. But, on the other hand, they only had the last 20 years to fix it. 

No is clearly says a 'three person motorcycle'

Those are called "crosswalks", not "zebra" crossings.

 

Look at the picture.

 

Ever see any red and white zebras?

Buying online in Thailand means you are adding to the global plastic waste problem

Is this what happens in Cities ? puzzled ??

Cannot think of anything I buy online that has extra packing.....   Bought yesterday + delivered within 2 hours a new PC Monitor was in the box as from the store you see on the shelf with a label with address on the box..  same on Monday my 20 kg of Fish food delivered had a address label on the sack, last week the 20 kg Dog food the same, Supermarket deliveries  always arrive in a plastic container box, you take in house take items out and return the box to driver..

Can't think of any items with ADDED extra packing..........  if you go shopping pre-wrapped items will often get put in a bag and yet another bag at cash out  !!

So to me shopping on-line = cutting down on plastic waste problem

I have one with Roojai.com

Could it hurt to try another speed test website?  Takes all of 5 seconds to type it in and click go.  

try another speed test website?

Yes can do no problem, but with replies here, have moved on to my IP address keeps changing, + PC can be turn off and Router cable unplugged, but the 5G Wi-Fi will still go off to another Country.

some months ago there was a problem in the Village with everyone's [all different providers] Internet..

Turned out the wooden poles had been replaced, 13 km are now all concrete poles. + someone so we were told  had tried to cut out the old cables and tidy up, so some Live cables were missing others connected the wrong wires, and not just this Village......  

Just find it is odd the way things are done here, New Company = another new line = a jumble up mess of old line + Live new cables all on poles.

Just wondered if this had something to do with the problem,  friends further up the Village are on TOT Fibre and have no end of problems [still on going]

have a genuine item

The genuine item can be a expensive load of rubbish as well....  

Big Brand name genuine [full price paid]  tablet, lots count of how many time it was taken back to the service centre.. [ fuel + time taking it and the same again a week later to collect it + same every month to 6 weeks] gave up > has been sat in the draw for the past 3 years, still not working

Feel sure a copy cheap one would have been as good + a fraction of the price.

I have no wish to drive a Taxi, and not comfortable in the Civic 

If i was in the market for a saloon, then would go for the top 'RS' model  Suzuki Ciaz

2019 Civic/ Altis you would have a lot of change back for a brand new one top spec.... Ok the Suzuki is a bit smaller, but bigger than the Honda City + Suzuki hold there second-hand price well

https://www.suzuki.co.th/en/model/ciaz/equipment 

Nissan has ended production of Sylphy in Thailand the new model is not here

good job we are not all the same, so it is up to you what you feel best in and suits your needs

Maybe try a different speed test website also.  

The speed test site is what AIS use,,,,,,,,,

Appears the speed is related to IP address, and mine keep going to many Countries and not staying in Thailand..
