    Picking X670 seems to be a real hassle with neg reviews

    I read that was resolved with the latest FW. I had another question: I know why Asrock does not specify Thunderbolt but its confusing. I can't tell if this supports TB4. Can this board output 4K 120/hz over the iGPU? It mentions 8k at 60fps so I would assume yet? I wont have a dGPU right away...

    Picking X670 seems to be a real hassle with neg reviews

    Nice, I did read one review where he had a pretty bad issue" "I only get 8x with one card installed. 4x in the first slot if 2 cards are installed. The second slot gets 8x which is right. no nvme drives in the m2_1 slot so i know it's not a config issue" How do you test this exactly? What...

    Picking X670 seems to be a real hassle with neg reviews

    I have this in my cart now. Does the lack of 7.1 bother you? Im usually on headphones or a 2.1 speaker set up. I pulled the trigger on the 7950x CPU last night. Thinking of pairing it with this MB, DDR5-6000, WD SN850X, Thermaltake - Toughpower GF3 1000W and a Lancool 216. I might hold out for...

    Help with AMD 7950X or Intel i7-13700k

    I thought I had my mind up. 7950x was the was to go. Uses: Content Creation (Photoshop, Clip Studio, Camtasia, Davinci, OBS) Pro's of AM5 is the future option to drop a CPU in a board Con's you need that much of a board to make it future proof AM5 is not mature yet (e.g., memory speed...

    Cases that fit E-ATX and 4080?

    I also discovered the new Planteks NV7 from CES. WHile expensive, it could be my 10 years base.

    Saw that. I've had my eye on the 7950x for awhile. That might make me jump on it.

    Picking X670 seems to be a real hassle with neg reviews

    I am looking at getting the 7950x (Im not a gamer and dont need the x3d variant), Anyway, there are multiple boards that meet the future proof requirement, I would put the ASRock X670E Taichi at the top of the list because: 1) It has a PCI5 M.2 slot 2) It has a PCI5 slot for a future GPU 3) It...

    Cases that fit E-ATX and 4080?

    Is there a good site out there that tracks what cases can accomodate both E-ATX (which seems to be becoming more frequent) and the 4080? I have the Lancool 216 as a possible choice but I seem to be drawn to the Lian Li 011 style. Hyte doesn't seem to do it.

    ThinkPad Yoga 460 (20FY0002US) no video HDMI out

    I've tried both Windows 10 and Windows 7, blowing away the partitions and installing from scratch. This started with a powered USB-C hub for my Wacom Cintiq. It has HDMI to connect the Cintiq which is USB-C to the laptop which is HDMI. At first I thought I just blew out the drivers. Now I am...

    I've had my Yoga working almost flawlessly since purchase. I use a Wacom Cintiq without issue and our of no where, I get a black screen on display 2. I've tried multple displays and cables. I am aware converters do not work on this model so these are straight connections. I uninstalled drivers...

    Cleaning smudges off an LCD panel, not the glass.

    I sucked it up and bought the 70% alcohol. As long as you follow it with a dry microfiber it works pretty good mixing it with 50% distilled water.

    Cleaning smudges off an LCD panel, not the glass.

    Ok, I have some 90% but not the 70% kind. I guess I could water it down more.

    Cleaning smudges off an LCD panel, not the glass.

    Did you like make it yourself or store bought? I imagine it has to be diluted. You put that on the bare panel? Not the glass but the panel inside.
