    Question GPU works on one system but not on the other ?

    Question GPU works on one system but not on the other ?

    Thanks for another great analysis Mr. Walton; I think I will end up grabbing one due to my horrific experience with AMD drivers with two identical RX 7900XT MERC310 cards from XFX; both cards had serious power compatibility issues with multiple motherboards and also would often refuse to...

    Review Thermalright Phantom Spirit 120 EVO Review: This isn’t a competition. This is a massacre.

    You are categorically wrong; the cooling performance belies your statement. I use them quite frequently as I said for initial builds and the performance is still fantastic. And no version of the hyper 212 cost me over $30; so I'd hardly call it overpriced. You may write guides; but I actually...
