    ASUS STRIX 4090

    time to put that bad boy through its paces! I am curious of the power consumption at full tilt.

    What would an EVGA 4090 Look Like?

    why would they make any samples to include mock-up, engineer, alpha's etc when all the talk with Nvidia fell through back in April? No Company will waste man hours and a design for something they will not make.

    Which RTX 4090 card are you planning or consider to get?

    holy moly! That is some serious ca-ching there! I wonder how much the FE will be. Geez, that is like when the "Concert" was full swing and the prices were absurd!

    Two 1080p monitors in portrait mode anyway to make fullscreen gaming?

    you are going to have that bezel right in the middle splitting the screens. It is going to be painful for any type of FPS or third person shooter.

    I have the K100... i love the optical switches. It looks like the K100Air is not the same optical switch.

    Reason for failed automatic device encryption. TPM not usable. Windows 11 can't install anymore

    If TPM is enabled in bios, you might want to reinitialize the TPM.. if anything was encrypted, it will be gone so be careful. Otherwise, the Mobo will need a warranty replacement AFTER you update TPM firmware.

    Which RTX 4090 card are you planning or consider to get?
