I got the Antec. It's a very nice compact size. Thanks for the recommendaton. Let's hope 1000W is enough for the next 6 years Armenius

If I lower my Wattage to 1000W to pick up the Antec Neo, is that future proofing enough? I don't want to have to upgrade to 1200W or greater in a couple of years if I need to upgrade to a more powerful GPU in like 4 years.

Obviously I am cost sensitive. What is wrong with the Themaltake? And the Corsair RM RM1200e and is the difference in quality big enough to justify going from 1200W down to 1000W?

Somebody on Tom's recommended I pick one from these: https://pcpartpicker.com/product/ZDt9TW/msi-a1000g-pcie5-1000-w-80-gold-certified-fully-modular-atx-power-supply-mpg-a1000g-pcie-5...

What PSU for that price range would you recommend? I've been out of the PSU market for a LONG TIME and don't know all the bells and whistles and features I should be looking out for

For the record I already have the 4090 in my rig. Haven't had it stutter or got weird signs of power issues. I have not played a lot on it with heavy gaming loads yet but little benchmarks here and there and a little Halo Infinite tests seem to be okay. Yes I got lots of disks and SSDs. Y'all...

Well there are recommendations and then there are.. um facts. I suppose I am asking, are they just saying that or is that actually something that I NEED to do My current PSU is a Corsair RM750. I assume it's not one of those cheap PSUs that will brick my entire system?

Hi, I have a 24/7 OC 10850K at 5Ghz and I just picked up an Asus TUF 4090 OC. I don't think I plan to overclock the 4090 but I guess maybe in 2 years if it starts struggling at 4K I would? Anyways my rig also has a ton of HDDs and SSDs. I see there is a sale for a 1200W Corsair RM1200e PSU in...

I still would want to see it. Keeps me informed

Because I need to stick to Nvidia because of said geo-11 4K3D mods. And because the one thing I hate more than upgrading PC parts is buying something and it not being enough to last me a couple of years especially for 3D 4K VR. 4090 SHOULD last me for a bit while no?

So I mostly play older games because those typically have mods that allow me to play in 4K3D. The newest game I own is probably CBP 77 and Halo Infinite. I haven't seen any new titles that actually interest me. I do have CBP 77, bought it at launch and stopped playing like 1 hr into the game due...

Yes okay but how is the jump this high? as in when did video games start requring so much the latest and greatest that something that was top of the line 2021 takes a big hit on performance when back then even something like my i7-930 could last a decade and do just fine even at 1440 to 4k. Now...

It is a geo-11 VR mod. Essentially there's a mod that allows you to play the game in 3D with SBS or TAB or INterlaced and so on. What I want to do is project the game onto my quest 2 using Virtual Desktop in 3D mode. I run the game at 4K and the 2080 Ti is struggling to hit 45 fps consistently...

Man I just built my PC Jan 2021, I really don't want to go buy a whole new system just 2 years later. My i7-930 lasted me for 11 years. WTF happened to the PC world?

Oh I actually have a 2080 Ti now. But its struggling with witcher 3 at 4K 3D VR pendragon1

Hi all I wanted to see if my 10850K would bottleneck an RTX 4090. My CPU is at 5Ghz 24/7. Would like to get more performance out of my 4K 3D video games and VR

After weeks of trying and experimenting. It seems the issue itself is mainly due to Macrium IMage recovery. Whenever I restore an image, I quit booting properly with that EDID override. Not sure why though but now I know the cause johnny0

So I did everything you mentioned but it still gives me the issue. It really only boots if I forcelly shut down the computer with my power button. When I click shutdown or when I hit restart, it fails to boot. I truly have no idea WTF is going on anymore. I never used to have this issue. What...

This is so bizzarre. So let me tell you what happened in the last 24 hours. I reverted my computer back to 20H2. Flashed the EDID and it worked. Then I did an image of my compiuter and reverted it back to 22H2 to retry flashing. I got this issue again. But when I restored the 20H2 image again...

To answer this quesitno, the mouse and keyboard is completely dead. THere is nothing. It's like it it dies booting. There's no signal from my I/O johnny0

Quick questoin. How do I make sure I have completely purged the EDID/inf driver for the tv? Before I try patching it again johnny0 I believe part of the issue is that the tv's driver is not completely purged before I install the custom EDID which leaves the TV/Windows confused

Yep confirmed to be 425.31 johnny0

johnny0 Yep, I did check DDU to make it not install drivers. I also set my network on metered connection so Windows doesn't do any updates

Lol well that may be warranted, I know there are two different fast start up type things in Windows. One is like the quick boot thing in UEFI/BIOS and the other is within Windows if I'm not mistaken pendragon1

For the first theory, the driver is an old Nvidia driver. 425.31. The last true on with 3D Vision so I am not sure if that theory would apply? Especially givenn that it has worked in the past with no issue with previous versions of Windows 10. It just is an issue with 22H2. I just restored my...

What is fast startup? Is it in BIOS or Windows? Dopamin3

I spoke too soon. It works but only when I do a full shutdown. If I restart my computer, it won't boot. The monitor does show up as the custom EDID in Nvidia graphics but not in the device manager list. It still views it as a generic monitor. Any idea why? johnny0

I don't know what wizadry that program did but it worked. I can now boot into windows with that custom EDID. Thank you so much johnny0 Could you explain why it worked?

I will look over that link. But QQ, how is it different from what I did. What I did was find the monitor in device manager, clicked on update driver, clicked on have disk then imported that EDID / inf file into the monitor. johnny0

Hello, I have an unsual situation. I have a 3DTV hooked to an Nvidia RTX 2080 Ti. In order to play my games in 3D, I need to install an unsigned EDID drive for the TV. To do this, I had to disable driver signature enforcement. This used to work but ever since some updates (I can't point out...

Yep, I am looking into it now. THanks for the suggestion!

SO it sounds like my best option then is to have some sort of folder sync software that can backup my drive to another drive in my PC. I don't want to buy another box right now cause I am in an on the move phase of my life. The less thnigs I have the better. my most important data is in the...

Hi guys, I have 4 x 14TB HDDs. I want to use them to hoard data like movies, songs, pics etc. It's soley for backups including PC images. I don't want to buy a box just for them. My computer can handle these HDDs and I'd rather them be in my main desktop given my "on the move" situation. I had...

I didn't find a package at that time. What I did do was to buy a Logitech MX 2s and this keyboard: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08CFPXPB7/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 SJJ

Hello I have a friend who is looking for a laptop for video editing. He can either get a lower CPU with a better GPU or a better CPU with integrated GPU. His main use is video editing. WHat should be the priority part. CPU or GPU?

Crap I totally didn't see that. I was actually looking for a laptop section. It was either here or ... the Hardware section.

Hello, I am trying to decide between 2 laptops. One is the HP Spectre X360 which has an i7-1255U and the Asus Zenbook Flip 14 OLED which has the AMD 6800HS. I have both and both of them have their strenghts and weaknesses design wise. I am stuck on which one to pick so i compared the two cpus...

THis is all I see from advances power settings: Like I said, I looked through power settings, and I can't find it pendragon1

Yeo that one worked well. No screen dimming. Thank you so much for that recommendation chameleoneel pendragon1 I have loked high and low and can't find anywhere it says to dim display on Windows 11. I have turned off screen saver and screen sleep in power settings. This is true for both OLED...
