I have always avoided WMP like the plague. Foobar2000 is still being maintained and does a great job at ripping audio CDs and is still a great media player after all these years.

I have a Scythe mini-Ninja mounted to my RX 6500XT. Not to run cooler but to run more quiet. Works great but not thermally difficult. I personally think there should be a new form factor so that GPUs can be mounted similar to motherboards so they can have large tower coolers that can work...

Hmmm, this could be a fun project. I have some old 10k/15k SCSI/SAS drives that could be fun to try with.

I would assume this is just a bug that created this folder instead of actually installing any IIS application files. But it had me checking my own C: drive. Sure enough I had the inetpub folder as I just installed this months updates yesterday. But in addition, I have a "Microsoft Shared"...

8-pin PCIe cables are a standard. Corsair can't just make a 300W PCIe cable as that's not the standard and no one else does that so it wouldn't change GPUs at all. As far as I can see, the whole Type 3 or Type 4 thing is related to the connections on the PSU. Type 4 8-pin connectors on their...

You really don't need a 1kW unless you're powering one of nVidia's stupid high power cards which will use these connectors anyways. So it makes sense that these PSUs focus on that. But also, if you wanted to power a more reasonable GPU that uses a couple 8pin connectors, you can just use a...

Chyrosran did a video review of this thing a few months back. He's a big fan of large keyboards with lots of macro keys so no surprise he's been on top of this keyboard. Definitely not my thing but it is still cool. I would point out that while their classic layout is very much symmetrical...

In the software section, seems to be something left behind or an accidental copy/paste from a different review...

https://www.amazon.com/Button-Square-Silent-Wireless-Switch/dp/B0CWNNX11S These are only 2-pin switches, not the 3 pin ones used in many mice. But they work just fine as a replacement. I forget what the 3rd pin is for exactly but it doesn't affect the switching needed.

This is a good idea. Except that most of what I'm seeing are mouse feet and screws and batteries for wireless keyboards. It's something but there are plenty of other parts that could use replacing. I have a G305 mouse and they have the feet and screws but they are $15 each which is pretty...

The keycaps don't appear to be shine through and the lighting only shines around the keycaps. So the position of the LEDs doesn't seem to matter. Now it will if you decide to change the keycaps for ones that are shine through. But yeah, still seems weird. The south facing position was for...

I like how Manawyrm brought up Technology Connections on YouTube to show it working.

That's actually something I have been thinking would be cool. Not the orientation MSI has it here. But if the PCIe x16 slot was on the bottom edge of a mITX, then the GPU could connect edge-to-edge with the motherboard and give a larger full sized system with the CPU and GPU on the same plane...

Hot swap server PSUs running at 1kW or more use similar connectors. This isn't a new idea and it works just fine in those cases. They are essentially using the same idea here. Assuming they are using similar quality connectors. The one picture there looks a lot like an ISA slot. But server...
