    News Asus launches air-purifying monitors starting at $129 — 27-inch and 34-inch models retail for $159 and $359

    If you did not use the asus certified filter they obviously cannot honor the warranty. I mean, it has to be ultra premium, but standard filter, with an asus logo - else you are PLAYING WITH FIRE !"!!!!! It will be bundled with a custom 12vhpwr connector!

    News Asus launches air-purifying monitors starting at $129 — 27-inch and 34-inch models retail for $159 and $359

    Why not also build a refrigerator into the monitor now we are being creative. Maybe a cupboard? I would definitely love some catears and a chocolate smell from my monitor. Im currently working on integrating a soda dispenser into my own monitor, such that I just grab the monitor straw and let...

    News AMD's Zen 6-based desktop processors may feature up to 24 cores

    I would not consider faulty ram catching errors with ECC as properly functional in any way. Can we assume for the discussion at hand that the modules are not faulty or "worn out" (something I have never experienced - just to say, it has to be rare). :D ECC can also be faulty, is it less...

    News Control Ultimate gets DLSS 3.7 support and new 'Ultra' settings — cuts performance nearly in half

    Tbf Im tired with all this scaler and ray tracing talk. Wow you can tank a card with calculations it was not really made for. Impressive. Ray / path / whatever you call it , will always be a simplified implementation of actual proper light tracing. Which is practically impossible because the...

    News Asus launches air-purifying monitors starting at $129 — 27-inch and 34-inch models retail for $159 and $359

    Why are we acting like OLEDs are perfect in this article when they cant even show proper text currently? I would feel cheated with a 1500$ monitor that shows artifacts around text. Im happy to sit on a pumped VA until OLED gets proper lighting volume and pixel structure. IPS are rarely sold as...

    News AMD's Zen 6-based desktop processors may feature up to 24 cores

    The reason is simple, as mentioned, due to price Vs gain. The price is considerable, and the gain is 0 for 99,9 percent of client users. So it hardly makes sense even if it was pennies. ECC is really about data integrity on a level nobody normal needs. Normal nonECC ram setup correctly can run...

    Review Logitech PowerPlay 2 Review: An impressive downgrade

    with the new logitech ceo a little spool of cobber is gonna cost u 100$ , there is nothing amazing about this technology , it is almost just a spun up cable. But she is great, she is gonna take their legacy into the dirt with this approach. They were used to be known as one of the best in terms...

    News Nvidia's Priority Access program reportedly kicks off, invitations sent out for RTX 5090 customers

    The sentiment of the reasoning had nothing to do with sneakers. Lets agree to disagree :) you are saying that all the luxury brands of the world are clueless and that their strategy is fundamentally flawed, I think they have figured how to stay relevant and sought after when not bringing...

    Review Logitech PowerPlay 2 Review: An impressive downgrade

    I cannot condone anything logitech atm with their blatant brandmilking going on with the new CEO. You can now get what was considered a basic keyboard 10 years ago for the mere sum of 150$ @ logitech. Meanwhile a brand like asus is completely shaking the foundation of expectation in the market...

    News Nvidia's Priority Access program reportedly kicks off, invitations sent out for RTX 5090 customers

    Fair enough. A bit much to be expecting to play graphics heavy titles on that pixelcount... But I think thats a you problem to be honest, you are asking for what? 3x pixel count of 4k? That is not reasonable to be playing a modern title on that resolution imo, but you definitely do you - im not...

    News Prototype RTX 50-series power connector designed to prevent melting with current overload alarm, per-pin sensing

    I am sure if this was an appliance it would be deemed unsafe, yes. It is outright irresponsible design. And that is hardly an opinion, its just common sense.

    News Jim Keller joins ex-Intel chip designers in RISC-V startup focused on breakthrough CPUs

    Might be from a consumer perspective. But that is mostly because much of it is transparent to the user as long as everything is working correctly. Ofc a bit different with every device now having a nic , that is pretty exposed to the user, but there is alot of transparent stuff going on. They...

    News Prototype RTX 50-series power connector designed to prevent melting with current overload alarm, per-pin sensing

    Mechanical implies that something is moving. At least thats what I remember learning in engineering school. (It is the only thing I remember so it better be right else good waste of tax$ 😂😂😂

    News Prototype RTX 50-series power connector designed to prevent melting with current overload alarm, per-pin sensing

    I think that would hardly help when all the power lines are gathered before any sensing. They would have a bigger buffer but they cant sustain 200watts on a single line either 😃so it would just mask the problem. Amazing that a little voltage sensing and load averaging is to much to ask.

    News Prototype RTX 50-series power connector designed to prevent melting with current overload alarm, per-pin sensing

    Never mind fixing the underlying problem. Lets make another cheap patchwork solution. How is this even legal, smh. If you think this is fine on a 2500 dollar card, you are insane. Let me remind you that the proper implementation wouldve cost jensen maybe a couple of dollars per card.... what we...
