This right here. For the vast majority of cases the problem does not result from a hacker specifically targeting someone and trying to brute force their system. The majority of malware and information theft is exploiting human behavior and psychology, ie phishing, malware in attachments, etc...

Like others this is my real concern, these AIB makers got used to taking a bigger piece of the pie on every card and they could really set the stage for the future. I find it remarkably admirable and surprising that Nvidia and AMD stuck to their release MSRP. Sure people would have bitched but...

we all know this was inevitable. I have been telling my friends for years, if they think crypto is getting big now, just wait until a major chip maker throws their weight into it. I’m honestly surprised it has taken this long. I do feel somewhat bad for Bitmain and MicroBT, they did pioneer the...

[ This is the correct state of the intel v. and landscape right now. The true facts of hardware are very well known in the enterprise realm and the vast amount of market share intel has lost to amd, IIRC they were up to around 95% at one time, bears out this info, and yes I know the most...

I am right there with you on the LG CX it was my top pick until the newest models came out, but I still keep my eye out for anyone getting rid of old stock hoping to snag a CX on the cheap.

This right here......so many people anymore are unaware of the hardware requirements to drive this kind of display and just fall victim to the marketing. I could spend 10k building the best possible gaming pc I could imagine and still be luck to crack 90hz at 4K, much less 240hz. I think...

1080p is basically the standard for performance when gaming on a laptop. If you look even at the 3080 mobile at 165 watts and 16GB it fails to reach 60 FPS at 4K and sometimes fails to produce even 30 FPS. Due to the limited space, power delivery and cooling capability of laptops, even with the...

I have this motherboard along with a Ryzen 5900x and I want to know if anyone else has tried this memory. When I look at the QVL list for Vermeer there was no C14 3600 or C16 4000 memory listed. I am either going to use one of these 3600 kits F4-3600C14D-32GTZR - G Skill TF13D432G3600HC14CDC01...

Is it just me or does the math on hard drives just not add up to anyone else? I have been thinking about this for several years and I must be missing something. Lets just assume for simplicity that each platter in a 3.5" HDD has a radius of 1", in reality it is problably close to 1.5", but I'm...
