    All new build, feels very slow, awful SSD benchmarks; please help!

    Fixed! I tried different m2 slots and swapping the SSDs between the systems, and everything was pointing at the problem being the motherboard. In a last ditch effort I flashed the bios to the latest version and that freaking did it. So a late '22 bios on a new motherboard model was cutting SSD...

    All new build, feels very slow, awful SSD benchmarks; please help!

    About a half a year ago I built a new system for myself with: MSI z690 mag tomahawk and Samsung 980 pro 2TB, win11 pro. It's been running beautifully, no complaints. Today I built a new system for the wife with: MSI b760-p pro and Samsung 980 pro 2TB, win11 home. Same model SSD, CPU, RAM, GPU...

    2080 Ti for $1000 confirmed, HDMI 2.1/VRR confirmed dead for another year

    Actually, from the way DLSS was explained in the presentation, it sounds like the greatest benchmark cheating technology ever invented. "Deep learning" the exact sequence of frames in a predetermined benchmark, heh heh.

    2080 Ti for $1000 confirmed, HDMI 2.1/VRR confirmed dead for another year

    2080 Ti for $1000 confirmed, HDMI 2.1/VRR confirmed dead for another year

    I'm just going directly off official 2080 specs: 2944 cuda cores and 1800 boost clock, vs my 1080ti which has 3584 cuda cores and 1700 boost clock. 2080 has GDDR6 though.

    2080 Ti for $1000 confirmed, HDMI 2.1/VRR confirmed dead for another year

    Am I reading this right? The 2080 costs about the same as this 1080ti I've had for over a year, but is actually 15% slower (without knowing the effect of faster memory) in existing games? Yeah, I'm gonna need to see a "killer app" utilizing raytracing before I consider a deal like that.

    Head-scratcher: why am I having performance issues that are solved by reseating the video card?

    Thank you everyone for the ideas. I've addressed the sag, we'll see if the issue pops up again. That's almost exactly what I ended up doing, except I ran the line under the card like a noose right past the end of the PCI-E slot and then tied the two ends at the top after threading through the...

    Head-scratcher: why am I having performance issues that are solved by reseating the video card?

    Interesting thought, I will try this next time. Unfortunately I don't know how to trigger this problem myself, so have to wait until it happens. It's definitely exerting force on the PCI-E slot, this card is freaking massive. As far as drivers go, yes I reinstalled from safe mode with DDU.

    Head-scratcher: why am I having performance issues that are solved by reseating the video card?

    For ~7 months I was running an asus gtx1070 with absolutely zero issues, then recently I sold the card and bought an asus gtx1080 ti, and now I'm experiencing a problem I'd never seen before. A few days ago, during normal desktop operation, my screen went black yet my computer did not reboot or...

    PC hard reboots in certain games within an hour, runs stress tests all night

    No reboots whatsoever, I'm declaring the PSU swap a success! Good call Doc, thank you and everyone else. Feels damn good to have a stable system again.
