I thought you were gunna say do what LTT did and use your pool as a radiator! I don't know if they did that, but someone on here mentioned it. You'd have to pre-filter out the leaves and stuff.

I think the solution is watercooling. It's what watercooling is for. Dissipate heat in a place other than where it was generated. I was going to do it with a couple cards I got on here that came with waterblocks, but I just didn't have the motivation for a gtx 680. I was going to run a copper...

Seems like reviews have showed 4K gaming being quite possible for the better part of a decade.

5500RPM!! What fan is it? I have an old Delta AFB1212VHE that's rated at 3300RPM, 130CFM. Was insane back in the day for OC'ing Athlons and Durons, maybe even a Celeron or two.

I shamefully admit I might have skimmed that part of your original post. So with out a separate PC to test your mouse, we can't be sure it's not having issues on its own. I really think the double-clicking is a bad switch. Can't speak to the ghub issue. A wired switch is like $7 at Best Buy...

I've been using the same mouse for several years now by replacing the switches every so often. When they start to go, often they'll make the mechanical click, but not make electrical contact. An unintentional double-click is a tale-sale sign of a bad tactile switch in the mouse. This one's...

...except that little branding issue I just mentioned. Oh, they shut down the partner program. Ok. Sorry for bringing it up. Yeah, that ... that's already been established. harsh ROFL

If used for distributed computing and the performance per watt increases, then... sure.

Even the 5995WX takes a while to complete the scene in cinebench. So when we can crank out 144 of those in less than a second, at even 1080P, not to mention 4K, then maybe we can say...

Riiight, but at some point nVidia decided to make the decision that despite AIB investment in their own brand, that investment would only be good for nVidia GPUs and none others. So that means that nVidia knows best and has to keep an eye on these silly AIBs that don't know how to do their own...

I just would've thought they would stipulate that there be something special about the 40xx series because they're more nuclear than any other generation. Like maybe they could add a polished stainless RRTX emblem that retracts if any peasant is so stupid as to attempt to touch it, or something...

A 66% increase in performance, regardless of TDP, and you don't think that would warrant at least an artistic differentiation? I mean, if they're going to put 2 fans and a 6-pin power connector on a GT 1630 to make it look sexier than it is, they could at least paint on another fan to the 4090s...

Isn't the performance increase with the 40xx series unusual, though? With as anal as they've been in the past about branding(AMD cards can't be Strix and that kind of thing), you'd think they'd be a little more self-aware. Welp, there's really no way to know in this photo. As OK as everyone is...

When I go to the WD store and click on something I was interested in, it takes me to a page where the item is shipped and sold by amazon. Is anything shipped and sold by WD?

I think it was swamp gas from a weather balloon that was trapped in a thermal pocket and reflecting light from Venus
