    for old GPU fan, does people put lubricant on the fan?

    Aliexpress/alibaba are pretty good about replacement parts like GPU fans. Sometimes it takes a bit of looking, but they usually only cost $10-20. The problem is waiting on shipping or paying $30 to get it expedited when you need it now. But for a GT 740 that money would be better spent on a new...

    Just a way to inflate review scores if all the least satisfied customers aren't allowed to leave a review. This results in more overall sales of games and more money for steam.

    Remembering the disaster that was crypto mining and it's detrimental affects on GPU prices.

    I wouldn't get anything older than 3xxx / 6xxx series unless it's for gaming. Last bull run cards about 3 gens old (1080ti etc.) were the cut-off for reasonable profitability IMO. Some older stuff was good for a short time but was so power inefficient that it got priced out really quickly (who...

    Unnecessary stuff is the most fun. Updated list. Added some more details about PSUs. Had some local buyers stop by and grab most of the 3900x CPUs and a lot of the motherboards today. Will probably get rid of most of the remaining motherboards & cases by this weekend, was just too much to box...

    Baldurs Gate 3 - Official Discussion Thread (2019)

    The only reasonable explanation I've heard for lack of sliders is that they wanted to motion capture the facial animations so they limited the faces to the people that were being motion captured. Hence why every character is ugly nowadays.

    I honestly think the BG2: enhanced edition is worse than the original. Just add the tutu mod and experience it in all its aged glory. I recently replayed NW2 and it definitely took time to get used to the weird controls. Lots of custom tweaking and modifying settings to get it to act right...

    server board for gaming

    Have you considered threadripper pro? It's expensive, but supports 2TB of memory and is often clocked about the same as gaming CPUs. FWIW I ran a 64 core milan CPU on windows 10 without any problems (supermicro motherboard). If you're going for 96 cores you may want windows 11. My benchmark...

    7800X3D will be an utter failure of a CPU

    I can't speak for all of them but basically every DDR5 motherboard on the AM5 platform should have one IMO, especially considering the cost increase vs last gen. My MSI PRO B650-P WIFI doesn't have one.

    I have an asrock and an msi board with no issues so far. Boot times have come down on the asrock from what they were previously, but the real issue I have is what happens when something goes wrong and you have to reset the CMOS to fix DDR5 training. On my other computer, the memory runs fine at...

    HF FS/T scam - thoughts / a nod to the community

    $350 I think. I feel bad because I almost linked it to someone who was on a budget. I generally check post history / heat history for recent posts to make sure the account isn't fake. If it suddenly became active after a long absence that's usually a dead giveaway.

    A quarter of a year after Asus motherboard purchase, I'm still without a usable one - my disaster Asus RMA experience

    I had some stability issues on my (non-ASUS) motherboard with AM5. Overvolting the RAM fixed it. When I installed more memory (4 sticks total) I ran into more of the same issues and had to increase the voltage to around 1.35v. The most annoying thing is the retraining anytime something goes...

    Best GPU options for 3440x1440?

    I think the 4070ti would be fine for now, but it's too expensive and I'd worry about it in 3 years with the low VRAM & memory bus. It's performance is already bad at higher resolutions compared to older GPUs due to the gimped memory bus. So instead of that, a 6900XT or 3080ti for $200-300 less...

    Best GPU options for 3440x1440?

    If you want a new GPU for <$700 that'll last 3-5 years at 4k I don't think any card fits your requirements. I'd either buy used (6900xt or 3080TI if you want to come in under budget, 7900XT/XTX if you want to max your budget) or wait for prices to come down on something that'll last you that...

    7800X3D will be an utter failure of a CPU

    7800X3D will be an utter failure of a CPU

    How does this explain the 7773x? That has 64 cores with 3D vcache and was last gen tech that worked. They’re doing 3D vcache again on their Genoa CPUs as well. I just think they wanted to segment the consumer CPUs better. A 7950x3d with vcache on all CCDs put into a server board would be a...

    EVGA 3090 FTW3 Ultra Gaming for 750$ vs 4070ti?

    The 4090ti needs to include pcie 5.0 support so you can pool RAM at least. It's pretty silly that they've driver locked this feature away and made current gen GPUs worse than 3090s for some applications (it's intentional, I know). This way small users with a few GPUs could use their GPUs for...
