Hi there,
some years ago when the first wide gamut monitors became widespread,
a lot of people talket about colorimeters.
No one talks about them anymore. Why?
Do you like how your wide gamut monitor behave in an sRGB environment like Windows?
Is colorimeters unfashionable this days?
Guys I'm a little worried about my monitor's power supply.
I have an Acer X32FP, before I got one that met my accuracy requirements I tried several units and they all had the same problem

Hi,
my RTX4090 MSI Suprim X started making a very bothersome noise when fans rump up over 90%.
If I manually stop one fan the noise stops, so I'm pretty sure that it's one of the three fans.
Is there a way to workaround this problem or should I RMA the card?
EDIT:
MSI sent me new fans and all...

Hi all,
I buy Asus boards since the Asus CUSL2 in the 2000 (Pentium III mobo).
Every time I buy an Asus board there are some issues that are never solved and that are clearly related to design issues.
Asus simply ignore these issues and pretends nothing has happened.
I'm not talking about OC...
DDR5 is full of false advertisement, bad marketing and a lot of missunderstandings.
This is the reality of the current situation.
There is no single rank 32GB DDR5 modules currently.
This means that if you want 64GB of DDR5 memory you have two options.
Get a 2x32GB dual rank modules.

Hi all,
my 12900K reaches 85°C during rendering at 22°C ambient temp.
During summer ambient temp can go up to 32°C this means that my CPU should hipotetically reach 95°C during rendering.
Will I damage my CPU by rendering in summer?
I have 4K euros of components getting the dust because there is no DDR5 in the entire europe.
My "refund window" is expired and I can't even ask for a refund.

I have spent a lot of money for the components and I will not...
Hi there,
is there someone who have experience of Corsair HX1200i PSU?
Is it good enough for a single GPU system?
What about quality and reliability?
I will use it with a 3080ti and a 12900k OC.
I know that 1200w is too much for that system but hx1200i is the only one I have available now.

As far as I know Alder Lake supports only 16 lanes of PCIe5.
Those lanes are usually dedicated to the GPU in the first PCIe slot.
Will we be able to use PCIe5 SSDs on Alder Lake?
Hi all,
I'm going to build a new Alder Lake system with an high end GPU.
Is my Corsair AX860i PSU too old for a new system considering that i'm using it in my current system since 5 years?
Should I replace it for something better?
I'm a big fan of AMD but history teaches that AMD can win only when Intel sleep on its success.
At the end, Intel is too big for AMD to compete with, and when Intel pushes the accelerator AMD is always behind.
This don't want to be a trolling thread but as a hardware junk since more than 25...
It's clear that X86 is a dying platform.
ARM is growing too fast for X86 to compete.

do you think that AMD will switch to ARM soon?
Hi all,
I have an Acer Nitro XV273K 4K display HDR400 monitor 144Hz.

Hi all,
I'm running a [email protected] with a 2080Ti.
I have a 4K/144Hz monitor and I'm not interested in ultra high refresh rate but I'm worried about low 1%.
If I need to be sincere my CPU was enough for 4K gaming but with 3080 I feel that is a bit too old even for 4K.
I would really like to...

We have 11GB cards since 1080Ti, do you think that 10GB will be enough for 4K gaming in 2021 and 2022?
Will next gen games uses more VRAM since the new consoles have 16GB?
Is 3080 a safe bet or just a card to skip due to the "low memory"?

Hi,
I have an Acer XV273K monitor.
It is an HDR400 monitor (so crap HDR) but it have a great 10 bit panel, the same panel used in the HDR1000 monitors from Acer/Asus without FALD.

I'm using an Acer XV273K in 4K, 120Hz and HDR and GSYNC.
When using all those features my monitors goes down to 8bit + FRC.
Isn't this a condition when chrome subsampling should arise?
Is this test enough for testing chrome subsampling?
I see no "errors" in this image.

I don't know why people still continue to say that HDR 400 is useless but I don't agree with this.

Hi,
I see that most people uses DisplayCAL over the XRite i1 Profiler even using the xrite i1 display pro colorimeter.

Measurements are so different between those two software.
