There was a rumor that 5060 and ti will cost a bit less than predicted. I mean why not. They lowered the price of 5080 after 4080 disaster. What's funny though, 5080 is selling from 1500 to 1700. Almost 70% over the msrp.

Does anyone want to make predictions regarding the FE cards' temperature. They most definitely produce more heat, each depending on the amount of power they consume. How much better does this cooler do? Would 5090 reach 90c under load? I am skeptical regarding the temperature, honestly. But...

Everyone knows the story about a man sitting on a tree branch and cutting it. To help your biggest rival, and possibly a military enemy with your best technology is nothing short of insane. I understand they want all the money they can get, but even they should have some instinct of...

Most of those ended up in ai data centers. Even mobile chips from laptops are repurposed for this purpose.

It is so pretty that I immediately want it. But here is a life lesson. Few years ago I purchased beautiful Geometric Future case. This thing is truly beautiful, and has very convenient features. But looking back, I regret not buying a more convenient, traditional case. The main issue as I...

I recall when I last launched a PC without GPU power cables connected, it was just a black screen as well. From your description, you do not have all power cables connected to the new GPU, correct? I recall that their new 12vhpw cable connects to 3 typical PCIe cables (for 4080) which are...

Good for them, good for us all, I mean democratic world.

I love that office, simple but pleasant to look at

I recall they got less reliable when they started getting over 1tb, I remember well when all HDDs lost 5 year warranties they once had. That was when I stopped using HDDs except for movies

Interesting. While I am greatly disappointed at prices skyrocketing, it is understandable.

Obtaining raw materials is not that hard. In fact, this stuff was outsourced from USA because it is not nature friendly or otherwise just costs more than it is in China for example. One thing I agree with you that is that it is a complex manufacturing chain. You have to start somewhere. Or at...

Whenever troubleshooting PC problems, the most logical way is to narrow down to one item causing the problem. It was literally this one Asiahorse extension. Once I excluded it, there were no cables heating up. I suppose, if you used a different cable and got the same problem you could suspect...

Hello. You are not alone who experienced this. I threw away 4 pin CPU sleeved extension from Asiahorse for the same reason recently. It was always hot since the day I installed it. But it was reasonably hot till I overclocked my CPU. That day I felt distinctive smell of plastic. When I touched...

Hahaha 100 for 16tb HDD... Thats like at least 50% less than the cheapest 14tb hdd.

Pull out one stick of ram and check model number. Then on the motherboard's page check if it is supported. Also, since you mentioned someone else built it for you, you can also check in bios if they applied any overclocking profiles. For example, max performance, gamer, silent etc. It is the...
