Yes, that is why I worded my post "theoretically". My guess is real world speeds are nowhere close to 1200 Mbps. And it does not seem to router upgrade time yet all things considered.
Follow-up question: my router is the TP-Link AX1800 (Archer AX21). How fast are the LAN ports on this WiFi 6 router? I can't find this information on the Amazon listing. Hopefully fast enough to take advantage of the 1200 Mbps that is theoretically possible through Xfinity.
I helped a young relative build a new PC over the holidays. Like the title says, restart does not work, it just goes to a black screen. So he has to do a shutdown and then press the case power button.

I have had the Corsair speakers for years, they work great. The X90J has a headphone jack, so I was thinking about using the Corsairs. Good idea? I have heard that 2.1 speakers are superior to soundbars. Also, would it seriously degrade the sound quality if the speakers were placed behind...
Update, wife says the Acer 1440p has a picture that is more clear and brighter. Also, the mouse cursor had a curious problem on the 1080p second monitor. The cursor would go to a different level moving from iMac to 2nd monitor screen. I am guessing it is because the 1440p screen is an exact...
My wife uses a 2020 iMac with a 27" 5K screen. We have 2 spare 27" monitors and either could be used as a second display. The 1080p is a BenQ 60 hz VA panel. The 1440p is an Acer 144hz IPS panel. I am thinking the Acer would be better, is that true? I am not sure if the iMac can output...
I can perform a normal shutdown. But if I try to restart it gets stuck and you have to hold the power button to shut the laptop down. Asus ROG Strix Scar, 5900hx, 3070. Any ideas how to troubleshoot this? I ran the MyAsus and disconnected 360 controler and USB hard drive, did not help...
In case people are wondering once the discount gets to around 70% this is about as good as it gets. So, if you are a really thrifty buyer you can pass on the 50% discount games and hold out for the mega discounts which will probably happen in the future.

Might be better to upgrade to the 2021 model once it gets discounted as the gains are not huge.

Here is a 3070 with 1 TB SSD for same price. That Asus deal is ok, but I have seen 3060 laptops going for $1000, that is the price I would be targeting if a...
Understood, you may want to find a store to check on the portability of the various models. With few exceptions most laptops are thinner than they used to be, in part due to the removal of the optical drive. Just keep in mind the tradeoff for increased portability is louder fans and lower game...
When I looked at surveys and data on reliability Asus was in the top half, sometimes top 3. The other companies move around from survey to survey. As a result it is hard to determine who is #1.
It is actually pretty complicated to determine 3060 vs 3070. Reason is that in the 30 series...
Okay, what I know about the Asus product lines is this. The Zephyrus laptops open slightly around the top of the keyboard in order to increase airflow and improve cooling. So, in theory they would perform a bit better. The TUF Asus line prioritizes value and cuts corners here and there to...

I have a pair of Powerbeats bluetooth headphones. When synced to a Windows 10 PC the audio stutters about once every 10 seconds. The BT receiver on the PC is an Iogear GBU421 bluetooth 2.0 device purchased in 2009. I am wondering if the bluetooth protocol is too old to function properly with...
For anyone shopping right now I recommend carefully comparing the prices across models. For instance, I just checked and a 3070 FE is available at Bestbuy for $500 but could find no 3060 ti models below $500. Obviously the 3070 is a better GPU.
Just the credits, and they do not even let you enter initials for a high score. Still, it was such an achievement that we immediately left the arcade. Had to leave the place on a high point, lol.
So I was off on vacation for a couple of days with the wife. We went into a video game arcade in Santa Cruz, CA. Now, I had already played SF2 and SF 4 in the past, the latter on Xbox 360. So of course I knew the basics (combos, specials, super specials, etc). I managed to beat the game with...
Not to get off topic but since people are commenting on Newegg being an unethical seller. Watch these for background info. I have never had a negative experience with newegg but have a family member who did.
