I got myself a MSI Titan GT77 17.3" with 13980hx, 64gb ddr5 and 4090 for dirty cheap (€2100 compared to what it costs here in Sweden new, close to €6500). And I'm very impressed with it. I knew the performance will be good as this is basically a desktop 4070Ti with 16gb vram, but I didn't expect...

It boots fine when I run it with battery only. I tried to undervolt it and it worked great on -100mV p/e core and -25mV ring. But when I bumped ring to -50 I got a blue screen when playing Diablo IV. After that it just doesn't want to boot when I plug the charger. It just keeps turning on for...

Believe it or not, I don't watch porn and I certainly don't want to pay for it. But after seeing a post about how awesome porn is on Quest 3 with passthrough, I figured what the hell. I downloaded DeoVR (free) and purchased a month of SLR membership (you could just google it and add VR porn)...

They are not out yet, buuuut some early rumors claim 2-3% improvement over 4080. Certainly disappointing, certaily good news for current 4080 owners.

I have PowerColor 7900 XTX Red Devil LE which seems to have no performance difference regardless if I run +15% power limit or -10% power limit. The games I tried it in I saw literally no difference. I think in some cases the fps might be a fraction lower. I also made sure to turn off FPS limit...

I got Quest 3 after not owning VR headset for almost 4 years (Oculus Rift > Index which I sold in early 2020) and while it's impressive piece of hardware, I noticed that the games are lagging behind. Back when I owned Index there were games like Alyx which apparently is still a benchmark. I...

Look at below insanity: On top of that, scrolling through the website shows more ads. It starts poping up windows to subscribe to newsletters and in the middle of the article is a video that is irrelevant to it, yet when I scroll further down the video pops up in a mini window and stays...

Not sure if this is the right place to post, but here we go. I've had this issue since I bought my computer, some 16 months ago. It doesn't bother me that much as I put it to sleep usually and rarely restart. But it's taking forever to boot. I'm not sure, but I think it's not Windows (11)...

Continuing on for the third time :) Last thread RTX 4xxx / RX 7xxx New high end probably about 30-35% faster at 4k and high-end and cheaper. But not at 3080 price. I think 5080 will hit closer to $999. AMD more competitive this time around. This gen was an anomaly, Nvidia released 4090 because...

This is Creality answer to Bambu Lab P1S / X1C with better specs, just cheaper. I ordered and received K1 Max and the thing works like a champ. Prints beautifully too. Might post some prints later. Early adopters had some problems with a bad extruder on K1 (but Creality sent them a gift package...

HTC HD2 was my first Android phone somewhere back in 2010. Since then as a personal phone I've only had Androids and never an iPhone. However I did have a few iPhones as work phones as well as iPad Pro and Mini 6. Both iPads were better than anything Samsung/Huawei/Lenovo/Sony tablets I've had...

Not trying to trigger anyone, but I bought 7900 XTX after 20+ years of Nvidia cards and I'm fine with the card, but regret not getting a 4080 instead. This high end 7900 XTX (Red Devil LE) was some €100 cheaper than a low end 4080 which was my argument to get it. Here are my reasons why I...

After reading how Blizzard banned a bunch of WoW classic bots, I got a bit nostalgic. Not in a good way though. World of Warcraft: Neutral auction house: I remember my early days in WoW, which was probably around its second expansion, BTC. There was this bot I came across which would scan...

I have no idea how it happened, but the stupidiest thing I've ever done is to buy a contact frame for 13th gen. The ram I'm using is refusing to work in a1+a2 slots and only in a2+b2 (slot 3 and 4) which is not optimal. It's also a bit less stable when oced. I tried to straighten them with a...

My 7900 XTX showed real crappy performance. It was a bit below reference. In Borderlands 3 reference is about 103 fps and Nitro+ 107 fps. I was like wtf, I'm getting less than reference (102 fps). So I tried Asus GPU Tweak (and Afterburner, but prefer Asus UI better). My best score in...

I've oced my 13900k to 5.8ghz core 1-4 and 5.6ghz core 5-8. While it's at 40k multicore performance, I'm getting a bit below 2200 in single core performance. Meanwhile stock should get a bit over 2200 and oced nearly 2300. 'm at high voltage 1.45v and it does hit about 97c (206F) in Cinebench...

Edit: Ended up buying 7900 XTX. I'm a casual gamer, but I game at 4k/120hz. I found out my PS5 gets more gaming use than PC but there are games that I prefer to play on PC, like upcoming Diablo 4 and many MMORPGs. And it just happens that those games are usually not very demanding. I could...

Well, I slaugheted my electric bike extra battery that had broken plastics and got 65 of those batteries. I noticed I could use them for flashlights, some home built racing vehicles, none of which interests me. I won't be building a homemade battery for my electric bike as I tend to create...

I updated Windows to the new 2H22 and since then every time I download torrents internet dies. I have to reset the adapter and then it works for 1-5 minutes and then dies again. Any idea why? I did not have this issue before updating. It's not a router problem as every other device connected to...

So I'm trying to get the best out of my 12600k because reasons :) I'm sure you understand. I am able to run it (GHz, per p-core) 5.3, 5.1, 5.1, 5.1, 5.1, 5.1 and e-cores at 4.1GHz. V-core at 1.29v. I have 2 problems with the above. Problem 1: When running Cinebench R23 single core benchmark...

So I'm getting rid of my integrated sound card as I'm unhappy with Creative Command app that is very buggy for me (currently using SoundBlasterX AE-5 Plus). I've been looking at: Creative G6 (€150) (I'm a bit wary of their drivers as they have sucked for me even with older Z and ZxR cards)...

I'm thinking mainly Core i7-1260P as I want an ultrabook + GPU enclosure when the next gen cards hit the market. That would put me into a better position for 4k gaming than what I have now (3080). 9900k is overclocked to 4.7ghz all core. I can't really find any great comparison besides this...

So I'm thinking about going less power, less noise and more portable. I have currently 9900k clocked to 4.7ghz, 3080 and 32gb 3600mhz ddr4, as well as 48" LG C1. With 4xxx cards rumored to be power hogs, I just don't see them being a lot more effective in laptops than current gen, besides they...

Can it crash already, like really crash? Like, back to 2016? I missed the train and maybe we can rewind time. I need to get rich :D I keep missing the fucking train, boat, plane, life. Ethereum was $120 only a couple of years ago. It went 40x in a year. That's insanity for such a big coin. I...

I'm using my PC as a Plex server and have quite a few HDDs connected to it. 2 M.2 SSDs 2 internal SSDs 2 external SSDs 2 external HDDs I'm about to add 3 additional HDDs since I need more storage :rolleyes: But I've been thinking about moving all external HDDs to my... erm, storage room (pun...

I have a company laptop (HP Elitebook 840 G3) which is rather weak. Intel i5-6200u with a 520 iGPU. The laptop has a single displayport but I'm planning to buy a dock that can support dual 4k/60hz. Can it run my two monitors at 4k/60hz and 1440p/60hz?

I don't understand this. Everyone is praising VRR but I'm just not seeing it. I went from 3080 and Asus 4k/120hz monitor (Freesync, but not activated) to 3080 with LG C1 4k/120hz TV (G-sync, activated). Aaaaand no change in fluidity. I'm 100% sure G-sync is active. At least I know that I won't...

EDIT: Solved at post #7. I'm trying to flash a different BIOS on my 3080, but I can't get to Windows when it's connected to the computer while I'm using the iGPU. My computer keeps turning off and restarting itself with BIOS set to default. * I tried removing overclocks and it doesn't work. *...

EDIT: Solved! Check out post #52. Anyone have a guide? I googled but I can't seem to find anything useful. Most people write that newer miners like lolminer do it automatically, but I'm getting about 53-56mh/s on my MSI 3080 Gaming Z Trio, with vram set to +1300 and 75% power. I heard you can...

Continuing on the thread from a couple of years ago. I was pretty close with my guess, 3080Ti is exactly 45% faster than 2080Ti, at 4k. But I did not expect AMD to be this competive. 6900XT was slower than RTX 3090, but the new 6900XTXH is faster. So if we ignore the refreshes coming early...

I am thinking between Asus Strix 6800 XTXH Top Gaming OC and Msi RTX 3080Ti Gaming X Trio MSI is some €200 more expensive, but I mine about 20h per day when not gaming, and mining performance is $5,63 vs $4,09 per day. It will pay off those €200 after some 6 months. I can most likely boost that...

Edit: I've actually built one. Now is not a bad time if you want Intel. So I've been thinking about upgrading my PC, but it's fairly powerful and maybe it's better to just wait on next-gen everthing. I currently have: 9900k oced to 4.8ghz 2080Ti 32gb 3600mhz DDR4 I game at 4k/120hz but also...

I loved Diablo 3 on my old PS4 Pro, it was actually more fun on PS than PC. But I find the game outdated and visuals too old. Diablo 2 RE is interesting, but I hated it on PC. I might give it a try on the console. Couch gaming is slower. Just picked up Warhammer Martyr and the game is okay...

I'm having this issue where my monitor (Asus Rog Strix XG438Q) doesn't show anything until I get into Windows. Which means I can't see BIOS when I want to enter it. This is while it's connected with HDMI to MSI 2080Ti. I think I have to use DisplayPort cable but I have no idea where it is. Or...

Update: I overconsume, am materialistic and love gadgets. So, "cheap TV" turned into a 85" Samsung QN85A for the living room as well as 65" LG B1 OLED for the bedroom. And a couple of LG SN11RG soundbars... I've been thinking about ditching my projector and getting a large TV and mounting it on...

So I've been looking at some 3080 laptops to last me a while. Turns out 3080 mobile is on par and sometimes even worse than 2080 mobile! Is this some driver issue or is the new 3080 mobile basically useless? My 2080Ti desktop is 35-50% faster than mobile 3080. Which is too much for me to give...

That also doubles as a tablet in bed. For reading, watching movies, etc. I'm Android user so I figured I'll just buy Samsung Tab S7+, but then I saw the performance of new iPad Pro M1. And honestly at the moment buying top end Android tablet is almost pointless, even though I hate the Apple...

I know it's rough for gamers with miners snatching the cards, but I call bullshit on that. I do not think miners are using scripts to snatch cards (instead scalpers are doing that). I think Nvidia is selling those cards to miners directly. I mine with my gaming card when I'm not at my PC. It's...

I'm unable to buy PS5 atm since it's out of stock. But I need a controller for my PC and PS5 controller is in stock. Figured getting a PS5 controller would be logical since I plan to buy PS5 in the future (and I assume it comes with only one controller). Is it possible to connect a PS5...

I was swapping out 750w PSU to 850w and connected both 8-pin and 4-pin CPU connectors and my mobo did not want to power up. Nothing at all, completely dead. I did not have the 4-pin connected before so I guess that's why I never encountered this issue. If I disconnect the 4-pin, the mobo is...
