    [SOLVED] Weird Firestrike score / Physics score

    Interesting (and sorry yea...i read that the wrong way k vs kf). Yea could just be the microcode, but i'd try comparing against other similar setups in UL. May also be your external temps have simply gone up a bit. Not sure i have much else to offer, keep making 1-2 changes at a time...

    [SOLVED] Weird Firestrike score / Physics score

    They are the same processor minus the onchip gpu, so it should definitely be more capable. That said, what are your temps (should be lower then the old one), and are you seeing ghz drops... Are your clocks locked in at 5? Also...I'd grab an old ssd, unplug your current set of drive(s)...

    6 Cores and 6 Threads CPU = 3 Cores and 6 Threads CPU = Same Performance?

    If someone tosses an egg, to a person juggling, is it going to always be better if 2 people throw eggs to a person juggling eggs? There are times when a juggler can add 1 additional egg (or thread to a cpu), but maybe 10% of the time a juggler can take a second egg in the same space of time to...

    Tesla Cloud Servers Hacked By Cryptojackers

    I've not been convinced they are guilty of "very bad business practices" or that they practice bad cybersecurity. What i'm convinced of is that several companies have been hacked in the same way. Which begs the question...why or maybe how...But even if the 'why' doesn't really matter, the...

    Tesla Cloud Servers Hacked By Cryptojackers

    If you think you shouldn't buy stock in a company because they have been "hacked"...heh, well, i guess you won't be buying any stock. Also...what percentage of companies that have been hacked do you think actually know about it? I'd guess less then 10% and i'd lean towards less then 1% that...

    Pc freezes while playing games

    Check for viruses, then watch your GPU/CPU temps during games. If you're using an amd you can push your amd temps to an app on your iphone/android (amd link). Nvidia probably* has something similar, if you don't simply have a second monitor you can run your temps from (hwmonitor, gpu-z etc)...

    Tesla Cloud Servers Hacked By Cryptojackers

    If the author potentially gets paid based on hits/popularity, then you throw out there whatever brings people in. Don't blame the player, blame the game. ...or something like that...

    What have you heard...GPU Availability and prices

    Thanks for your thoughts. Good idea on setting up alerts...I use something similar. How about i ask another question then...Does anyone have an idea what the current production cycle is? 750k units every 2 mo to partners for 6 mo etc? They were pushing 11m and 7m or so per quarter. I...

    PC won't post unless I reinsert RAM

    What ended up being the answer to this? After looking over your issue again, i kinda wonder if it wasn't a degrading memory chip(s). When it first boots it'll often set to a lower speed/voltage (and or default), which may have been allowing you to post but not much else. Then after reboot it...
