The Benchy was good for its time but now it's just to see how fast you can print it. This makes me want to make a "not a benchy" lol

"Intel continues search for source of Core i9" ... insert Taylor Swift lyrics.. It's me, hi, I'm the problem, it's me 😅

🤞here's for hoping they lift OC limit on the 6800 non-xt🤞

Well, at least it's been out for more than a year and the few flaws have already been corrected and where not fatal flaws (literally in this case)

I've always been weary of AC mains to directly heat the bed. It faster and will warp the bed, although that's not as big an issue with bed mesh leveling. But the imagine immediately reminded me of iPhone chargers that always have to hard transition from thick to thin where the cable always...

That's still Massively better than it was before when they had to draw there warranties back to just a year o_O this was around the 2010's and WD went though a similar quality phase, but not nearly as bad imo. But going from over 10% on AVERAGE to about 2% is "good". But you're right, in...

Nvidia; 🙈 🤑 🙈 Long->Short; guess where going to have to take them apart and clean them with an Ultra Sonic machine before using them 😡 Nvidia has some pretty aggressive and creative ways to keep there prices up. My (total) guess is there's some type of backroom benefit to flooding a small part...

I have a i5-1035G4 (15w TDP) in my laptop that is "configurable" up to 25w, yet also runs at 35w regularly when in performance mode (HP Spectre x360 13"). It definitely gets toasty enough that I tore it down to upgrade the thermal paste, almost put liquid metal but then that would make it run at...

I was itching for a new GPU, but I think prices are still about $150 higher than they should be in the mid range. I might buy a used 6700 XT for $325 on ebay, but I really think i should wait for the 7000 series to drop and hopefully prices on older supplies drop like a rock :hearteyes:

Would be nice if there is a RAID controller built into the drive when/if this goes to consumers. But maybe one step at a time. Still much cheaper than two 8TB $1500 SSDs vs tiered SSD and HDD if you don't need the SSD performance that much. Double the HDD performance per rack is much more than...

Might have found something to replace my ageing i5-661 HTPC, even the stock intel fan is starting to wear out :-/

I've noticed after about a year there is a drop in performance with Liquid Ultra, but very small and might just be error. But, after two years the equipment is definitely running warmer. This is very evident in my laptop that now runs about the same as with stock thermal paste. I just got...

Are you wanting to jump to 144Hz if you go with a 1440p monitor? and why not a 34" 3440x1440? And i want to add that scaling in Windows isn't nearly as bad as it was on Windows 7. I have a 3200x1800 13" Yoga Pro 2 and have used x2 scaling and it to works great.. except if you have legacy...

There needs to be a breakdown of MHz vs CL, again... again :-/ Just seems like everyone always forgets of the relationship between MHz and CL. For example, 2133MHz CL9 ~/= 2400MHz CL10 ~/= 2600MHz CL11 in certain applications and MHz can win over CL in others. Point is, you may NOT see any...

I was just looking at a 40" 4k (3840x2160) curved (2000R) monitor on eBay for less than $650. Has FreeSync and/or Adaptive Sync, 4:4:4 10-bit and same type of panel, but only 60Hz :-/ Still happy with my AMH A399u, its a 39" 4K monitor with all the same above but no FreeSync and no curve.
