    A "Legend" Reborn: Logitech Brings Back the MX518 Gaming Mouse

    That's what I thought I when my mouse first developed the issue. Actually ordered some micro switches in 2017 to replace them thinking that's what has to happen. Although when I opened up the mouse and blew it out with some air, it's worked fine ever since. Well other than needing to do...

    A "Legend" Reborn: Logitech Brings Back the MX518 Gaming Mouse

    Same with my G700s. Anytime I have my windows open and it pollen season, my mouse develops the double click. Cleaning them does the trick to removing the issue. Although I wonder if there's any allergy medication for computer mice. lol. That's the only time my mouse get the "double click"...

    Adata Switches NAND on XPG SX8200 Pro SSD Again, Affecting Performance

    oof.... You would think that ADATA would change the product sku a little bit so everyone could tell the difference between these very much different SSD's.... It wasn't hard for AMD to change 1 letter in the SKU for everybody to know the difference between the original Zen R5 1600 (AE) cpu and...

    Nvidia Purposely Reducing Hash Rate for RTX 3060 GPUs, Creates Cryptocurrency Mining Processors (CMP)

    Funny enough... i was going to use his favorite phrase "click on one, nothing on two, three is binding" then thought against it... lol Just like what happen with the Nintendo 64. Many years, there were ways to bypass the PIF-CIC chip for bootleg games but the chip itself was not cracked till...

    Nvidia Purposely Reducing Hash Rate for RTX 3060 GPUs, Creates Cryptocurrency Mining Processors (CMP)

    GPU mining moves to RTX 3000 laptops (AKA exploring new lows)

    Yep... Guilty... well getting around the local machine security at least.. (I was not going to mess with the hornet's nest when it came to networks). When I was a student in high school 11 years ago, my work around for running programs on school issued HP netbooks (yes, netbooks that we could...

    NVIDIA Bans Reviewer for Concentrating on Rasterization Instead of Ray Tracing

    With all this.... It make one wonder if Nvidia has a plan towards dealing with negative review(s) by reviewers that bought one of their products (instead of getting it by a review sample)....

    80 Plus Hikes its Testing and Licensing Fees, Could Affect Prices of Low-Volume PSU Models

    Even if it does have that "issue" (as i dont know if yours does or not).... I'd be hard press to think your PSU would have a problem with any of the RTX 3000 gpu's (unless your SLI'ing 3090's) since it's a 1kw PSU and not a minimum 750w or below PSU. Anyways, back on topic... Price hikes on...

    80 Plus Hikes its Testing and Licensing Fees, Could Affect Prices of Low-Volume PSU Models

    If his only reference is to the older Focus / Focus Plus lines of PSU's, then he's beating a dead horse that was already known about (when AMD Vega 54/64 launched) and only affected a couple of lines of Seasonic PSU.. Not all their PSU lines had that problem...

    Who is buying a 3090?

    Jeez.... I know my 980ti was massively bottled necked by the Athlon X4 860k (FM2+) cpu when I was running that config for a short time (it was sad times.... ) I couldn't imagine that FX cpu being "more than enough" for a 1080 ti. Never mind a better gpu.... I wonder what his use case is...

    Just want to extend a big fat middle finger to every major hardware review site/channel out there

    Im just waiting for bigbluefe to start his own review site. If your gonna complain about it, just do the work yourself if you think a certain topic is so important that people need to know about it NOW. Although I am a little curious why you think reviewers NEED to talk about certain specs of...

    At 100TB, the world’s biggest SSD gets an (eye-watering) price tag

    Luck of the draw that you haven't had a single SSD failure yet. Dont know about Darth Ender experience but I've had one SSD fail on me. Ironically, that was a Samsung SSD that failed me (850 EVO mSata) and it failed only a few months after purchase. (wasn't due to nand but something else on the...

    Rumor: 3080 31% faster than 2080 Ti

    Neither have I and that's why i was skeptical that it was a 1440p tv (and the link provided didn't prove his claim either.)

    Rumor: 3080 31% faster than 2080 Ti

    According to the site you linked, it says the tv is 4k and mentions nothing about "Native Resolution" @ 1440P.

    Is Intel's X299 Platform Better than the X99? @ [H]

    Been out the GPU game for awhile need another HDMI/HTPC type card

    Well there's 2 wild guess I can make: 1. (Less likely) The TV may not like 30Hz as at best that GT 530 only has HDMI 1.4 (max resolution it supports is 3840×2160 at 24 Hz/25 Hz/30 Hz). Although I would of thought 30Hz would be supported. 2. (Most likely) It's possible that the GT 530 HDMI port...

    Encrypt and Lock Your Phone - Go to Jail

    Only problem asking that is there is no federal law the says you "cant drink below 21". The "National Minimum Drinking Age Act" that set the age target actually doesn't do what the name says... It mainly targets the age in which you can buy alcohol. (Which 2 U.S territories that im aware are the...
