In the end all we are doing is encouraging domestic production in China which will actually hurt more for the west in the long run.

7900xtx owner here. Power Color branded reference card. 850 watt seasonic ps. Only experience coil wine on Unity game menus where the devs forget to cap the frame rate. Had this same issues with my 1080Ti Asus for what it’s worth.

And even if you “bought” your digital copy of your favorite movie or game, you still don’t own it in perpetuity. They can, will and have removed titles “bought” on platforms. This is a space that needs some additional consumer protection.

You will eat bugs and ride in cattle car public transportation while your self identify “betters” will fly private to Davos to safe the world from “climate change”.

The only time I’ve encountered coil whine outside of a someone’s house having bad wiring or a shoddy power supply is when a game menu runs at an uncapped frame rate. I’ve never experienced it when actually gaming. Guess I am lucky.

“When taking the geometric mean of all 370 benchmark results, the Ryzen 7 7840U enjoyed a 28% lead over the Intel Core Ultra 7 155H in these Linux CPU performance benchmarks. This was all the while the Ryzen 7 7840U was delivering similar or lower power consumption than the Core Ultra 7 155H...

I thinking quoting the entire article is a bit extreme and not exactly fair use. Clip a paragraph or two and a screen grab. Then put the link to the actual article.

What does it say that more than three years after the Xbox / PS5 that ~40% of the market is using Pascal / 16XX type cards? This is Steam so this is not a normal population of PC. These are “gamers”. It doesn’t make sense intuitively that the three most populare gaming cards would be 8...

Yes absolutely. It just works. I can plug into my old receiver and done. Tried that with HDMI and had to deal with intermittent silliness with a phantom monitor

We have seen multiple situations where GFX cards running the same fidelity settings with similar bench mark performance look different because one card is loading low quality textures and has pop in issues. You don’t see a big performance tank in the benchmark because the game is using low...

Maybe just maybe this will inspire them to release the switch 2 on non potato quality hardware. Something like 2060 level of performance…

The PS5 has 16 gb so they reserve 12 gb for the GFX gram buffer. They will optimize it to keep it under 12 but will spend their finite time making the game better rather then optimizing to keep it under 8 gb and still looking the best. Instead they will just turn down the textures to potato...

100% and since it seems that cache scales better from a power and density then IO does they are trading a 32 mb cache and a 128 bit bus vs a 4 mb cache and a 256 bit bus. The 3060 ti should still have been either a 16 gb only at $400 or a 192 bit bus with 12 gb for $400. An 8 gb card that...

AMD specs are 1.0 v and Asus was running it at 1.45 volts. How is that AMD “fault”. Should AMD be testing ASUS bios releases? I’ve owned multiple Asus prime level boards from the Sandy bridge era till the 9000 series. They wouldn’t RMA a 9000 board (Z370) with memory stability issues with all...

Just shows how CPU bound the 6700XT was even with an OC delid 6700k.

No one will pay for your cock and asshole picks… they will pay for your metadata

I’ve been arguing internally that we need to move to more explainable models with a curated feature space. I get pushback because they explainable AI and curated feature space don’t perform as well as the model they are using and improving. My retort is that it might perform better on your...

I’ve had friends with “bad coin whine”. I’m three circumstances it was a bargain basement or bad power supply that was the cause. Swapping a power supply fixed the issue. In one case it was a house with electrical wiring issue with dirty power. Moving the computer to an outlet that was on its...

Can anyone point me to the VESA DisplayPort 2.1 specs? As far as I can tell VESA has not published any purposed specifications for DP 2.1 I am wondering if wires were crossed and HDMI 2.1 is being confused with DP 2.1. Hopefully Navi31 will have DP2.0.

This chart actually speaks more to the shift away from desktop to laptop than it does about desktop discrete to desktop integrated.

And got promoted for the successful ARC launch… 🫣

LTT screw driver has slightly better uptime and better driver support…

That would be 12 F-35….

Bingo!

Must be on a 240 volt 20 or 30 amp circuit….

This is a topic that exposes peoples fanboy team. :) The last rebrand / refresh that I can think of is the RX-480 / 580 / 590. I mean perhaps you could say that the 1070 TI which was essentially just a 1080 with GDDR5 instead of GDDR5X. Some of the super cards in the 20 series could be just...

I have not seen any reviews using Civilization or similar turn based strategy game turn processing time benchmarks. These types of games are pretty much the only reason why I upgrade my CPU at this point.

Indeed sometimes the performance “gains” are negative with manual overclocks…

Same I had for sticks of the Low Profile versions.

Memtest64 is a fairly easy to use tool to check the ram. Another safe way to check the ram is to set it to stock speeds 2166 and see if the errors go away. After reading the thread I am pretty sure eventually you will need a clean install of windows.

You are not mining Bitcoin your are likely mining an alt coin that someone is paying nicehash bitcoin to mine.

What I don’t know is how close is the MSRP is to the BOM. One of the things we have heard is that it is “impossible” to sell at MSRP because the BoM cost is too close to the MSRP for the AIB to make their margins. We have no way of knowing if this is true or not. MLiD has done some reporting...

It really is not easy to do what Sonos did. Changing the relative volume on multiple wireless speakers that are not being driven by a connected amp and getting the sound from each device to be sync’s and not drift is not trivial. Try playing the same song on multiple devices at the same time...

You mean I got to pay taxes on that bonus??? /s

100% don’t need windows 11 for 12th gen. It runs just fine on windows 10. Their are compatibility issues with some older denovo games. You can work around this with most motherboards by disabling E-cores. Don’t need DDR5 either. Buy a DDR4 board and an 12600k or 12700k if you want to stay with...

Exactly so…

It is “easy” to create images with the same hash. It’s called a collision I believe. I agree that randomly having the same hash is rare, but people will intentionally create collisions to muck it up. https://natmchugh.blogspot.com/2014/10/how-i-created-two-images-with-same-md5.html?m=1

I think I topped out at 601K free. It was crazy how the boot order mattered to final size of the tsr programs. “Loadmemhigh”

This was an amazing walk down memory lane. Thank you!

1070 back up. 1080 ti primary. How does a cat blow out a power supply?
