    external hard drive

    I don't know about the iPhone or iPads but I connect an external 1TB Seagate hard drive to my Samsung S7. I was surprised the S7 had enough power on its USB to power it. Still a flash drive would be better.

    hauppauge tv device

    I am assuming that you want to watch TV on your PC. Spectrum probably has all channels encrypted so you will need a TV tuner that has a slot for a CableCARD. I have Comcast Cable and have been using a Hauppauge WinTV DCR-2650 since 2012. I had to rent a CableCARD from Comcast and then call them...

    (RETIRED) Sticky: Official CPU-Z Benchmark Thread

    I was running the 1700X at 4.0GHz. It was stable but the idle temps were 50-55C. If I had a better CPU cooler I would have stayed there so I compromised and settled on 3.8GHz. Now the idle temps are 40-45C. upload photo certificity.com image hosting free no registrationcertificity.com

    (RETIRED) Sticky: Official CPU-Z Benchmark Thread
