    Cell Phone Data Recovery

    I have several cell phones (all Android OS) that I need to get things like pictures and videos off of but in one way or another, the phones are broken. Usually, having to do with either the battery or the screen but I know the data storage chips are still intact. Is there any sort of DIY/at home...

    Nvidia Geforce FX 5800 Ultra 128MB GPU

    I never did have the FX 5800 Ultra but I did have the FX 5500 and eventually upgraded to the 6800 Ultra. That was a nice leap. Interestingly enough, the 5500 I had was the first thing I ever sold here using the FS/FT forums. And a couple months later, the 6800 Ultra was the first thing I ever...

    Transferring text messages from Android to Android

    This has probably been asked many times so I am just piling on, but is there an easy way to transfer text messages between phones? I recently switched from a Samsung Galaxy to a Motorola ThinkPhone (roughly the same specs as an S22 Ultra). Both Android OS but different manufacturers. I have done...

    It's been so long since I played it, I honestly don't recall.

    Sons of the Forest

    Me and my 3 gamer buddies started playing this when it first came out yet we never finished it. We haven't played it with all the updates that have come out and it was really good at release. The 4 of us will play just about anything but the open world/crafting/survival genre is probably our...

    Dying Light 2

    I never did get passed the opening of this game. Kept crashing. Does this game still crash a lot?

    how to minimize eBay ship costs?

    This thread is disheartening. I have a bunch of stuff I am looking to get rid of. So much stuff that it's completely covering my pool table. I was going to use ebay until I read through this thread. Is ebay nothing but scammers all around or is just on computer parts?

    Might have my first SSD going bad

    My main rig in question has a 2 TB Pioneer nvme drive as the OS drive and a 500 GB WD nvme storage drive which is the failing one. The OS drive is a little over 3 years old. When it starts to fail I'll replace it with a 4 TB WD Black.

    Might have my first SSD going bad

    Ok, I transferred all the stuff on the (failing) storage drive over the main OS drive. The failing drive has just shy of 250 GB of stuff on it and I have just over 500 GB free on the OS drive so I am good there. I just ordered a 1 TB WD Black Gen 4. Should be here tomorrow.

    Might have my first SSD going bad

    I turned on my PC just now and a little message popped up (Windows 11) in the lower right corner of my screen saying a storage drive requires my attention. I clicked the message and this came up: This is the storage drive in my main gaming rig. I had to go through my Amazon order history to...

    I've played both and the sequel is better than the first one in just about every way.

    6950 XT vs 7900XT - What to Choose for Upgrade?

    I just bought a 7900XT about a month ago. This thing is a beast. I wouldn't even bother with the 6950.

    6700 XT to a 7900 XT?

    Finally found the solution to my video issue. Still disappointing though. A couple weeks ago I dismantled my server and my spare rigs. In the end, all I really did was swap their motherboards. Now my server has the B550 board for its 3900X CPU and 6700XT GPU. The spare has the B450 board for...

    6700 XT to a 7900 XT?

    I just pulled the 7900 out of the gaming rig and put the 6700 back in there. It still works; the 6700 is not dead. And for shits and giggles, I put the 7900 into the server and still no video to the monitor. So, the issue is definitely the server's B450 board trying to run newer cards.

    6700 XT to a 7900 XT?

    It was set to auto. I changed it to gen3 and still nothing.

    6700 XT to a 7900 XT?

    Looks like I'll have to do this. I found a thread saying I needed to change the PCI-E lane setting in BIOS from AUTO to GEN3. I did that and still no video signal.

    No, but I highly doubt it's damaged.

    6700 XT to a 7900 XT?

    Hey everyone, I am needing some more help. After putting the 7900 XT into my gaming rig, the 6700 XT is going into my "server". Currently, my server has a 5700 XT in it and that will be getting bumped down to my spare PC which currently has an RX590 Fatboy in it. Anyways, I put the 6700 XT...

    6700 XT to a 7900 XT?

    Yeah, this one sags more than any previous card. Based on what LigTasm linked above, I can make a little rod to hold up the card. And as for the cooler on the 7900 XT, I played some New World last night for about two hours. Card never got above 67C, which is about 10 degrees cooler than the...

    Out with the old, in with the new. So far so good. Got it installed and the drivers updated. Running some 3dMark tests now.

    6700 XT to a 7900 XT?

    I'm gonna keep the 6700; use it for folding. I'll bump the 6700 down to my server and bump the 5700 down to my spare rig. That will put my RX 590 Fatboy up for grabs.

    6700 XT to a 7900 XT?

    I have a huge case and coil whine never bothered me. I play games at max volume with headphones so I don't hear the fans in my rig.

    6700 XT to a 7900 XT?

    I went ahead an ordered it. It's an XFX Speedster MERC 310 RX 7900 XT Black Edition. The 6700 XT I have now is an XFX QICK 319 and I have been happy with it overall. I used to be a Sapphire guy but after my last two Sapphires needed to be RMA'd (both within their first year of use) I'm really...

    6700 XT to a 7900 XT?

    I am mainly just after the most FPS I can get. Ever since I've had my 27" 1440p/144hz monitor, I've struggled to get anywhere near 144 FPS. I first had an RX 590 Fatboy followed by an RX 5700 XT. Those both struggled to drive my monitor. The RX 6700 XT I have now is the first card that gets...

    6700 XT to a 7900 XT?

    I game at 1440p and currently have a 5900X paired with an RX 6700 XT. I have been thinking recently of upgrading to an RX 7900 XT (not the XTX). 1) are the 6700 XT and the 7900 XT far enough apart to make an upgrade worth it? 2) would my 5900X bottleneck the 7900 XT? (I googled and found mixed...

    The Division 2

    I've played 1 and 2 and there's plenty of SP stuff to do. I will say the game is more fun with a buddy or two but you don't have to MP any of it. And since I prefer PVE over PVP, I just stay out of the DZ.

    New World Amazon Studios MMORPG

    Just curious, who all in this thread still plays regularly? My main (day 1) character is on the US West -El Dorado server. I have a second character on the US West - Isabella server that I use for achievement hunting.

    New World Amazon Studios MMORPG

    I really like the player movement in New World. However, as I have mentioned in previous posts, I was never really into MMORPGs so I have not played WoW or anything else that I can compare NW to. Oddly enough, I have almost 1,200 hours into NW and it is actually my first 1,000-hour game. I am...

    Same. Played the Heartland beta for like an hour and never touched it again.

    The Division 2

    For $9, it's not a huge loss. For $9, Div2 with crashes is a steal.

    I like them both equally. But I actually played through Div2 first then got Div1.
