    Question iGPU or dGPU for browser (for online video)?

    Hello all, I have a laptop with Intel HD and a Nvidia MX150 dGPU. I've noticed that the Intel HD gets really pushed while I'm watching videos (youtube and other streaming sites/content). I was thinking if it would make sense to set the dGPU (Nvidia MX150) as default for my browser (Chrome) via...

    [SOLVED] Computer eligible for Windows 10 key?

    Hello all! Straight to the point: Is there any way to check if a computer is eligible for a valid Windows 10 key before installing? I have a 4/5 year old mini-pc lying around. It currently runs Win7. I don't remember if it came with no OS or if with Win8 and downgraded. Thanks!

    Hello all, Will go straight to the point: I already have OS and programs on the fastest drive (970 Evo Plus M2 NVMe 500GB) 1.) Is it better to have the next fastest disk be the one where project files are located, or for scratch and cache? I have a WD Blue 500GB and a WD Green 480GB SSDs...

    Hello again, For some reason the frequencies are no longer at peak frequency. Instead they fluctuate randomly when idle: Hopefully this is normal... Cheers and thanks.

    [SOLVED] 9900k idle core frequencies high?

    Thank you. Sadly, tried all of those plus other combinations. Still frequencies show up as 4.9 while idle... Even reset defaults in BIOS and changed only the clocks, xmp and enabled c states. Same thing. :(

    [SOLVED] 9900k idle core frequencies high?

    I think this might be it! I have tried enabling the C states but problem still persisted. Going to try this now. BTW, what min. should I choose? 0? 10? 50? Thank you!
