    Recording room audio from only one side.

    This might be an esoteric question, but I'm going to be conferencing calling with some friends present in my home and some over the internet. My solution to this (rather than having everyone get their own computer and laptop even though we're in the same room) is to have a room microphone...

    Stuttering Video Quality

    Unfortunately the tv I use as a monitor does not have a Display Port. I tried swapping out HDMI cables with one I knew was working, but had the same problem. Any other possibilities?

    Upgrade to RX580 Caused Drop in Performance

    I did un/reinstall the video drivers, and Windows is up to date. I've tried multiple games and am seeing the same problems on all of them, Pillars of Eternity, Nier Automata, Shadow of War... Come to mention it, there is a bit of stuttering on desktop browsing and Youtube as well...

    Upgrade to RX580 Caused Drop in Performance

    So using Extreme I got: Score: 2466 FPS: Min 10.63, Avg 18.44, Max 22.0 GPU C: Min 43.0, Max 68.0 GPU Utilization: Max 100% I didn't notice as much stuttering this time, but obviously, the fps was lower.

    Upgrade to RX580 Caused Drop in Performance

    FPS: Min 20.12, Avg 41.17, Max 54.82 GPU C: Min 43.0, Max 67.0 GPU Utilization: Max 100%. So, I don't really know how to interpret this data, but it does seem like it has decent max performance, but is just wildly fluctuating. It should be noted that while performing the benchmark, it didn't...

    Upgrade to RX580 Caused Drop in Performance

    I did. On a hunch I even completely uninstalled and reinstalled the most recent drivers. Didn't help.

    Upgrade to RX580 Caused Drop in Performance

    Recently upgraded to a PowerColor RED DRAGON Radeon RX 580 from a SAPPHIRE Vapor-X Radeon R9 280X. Every resource I've checked seemed to indicate that this would be a direct upgrade, but after I've plugged in the new GPU, every game runs at low resolution and low fluctuating framerate. Why? I...
