    DEAD: HP OMEN MAX: 16" QHD+ IPS 240Hz, Ryzen AI 9 HX 375, RTX 5080, 32GB DDR5, 1TB SSD notebook direct from hp

    I have a Turion X2 HP from 2007 and a Sandy Bridge HP EliteBook from 2010. Both work beautifully in every respect and still see regular use around the house. My recent Ryzen Pavilion 13 was also an amazing laptop for the money.

    These were done so incredibly well and tastefully. Definition of 'labor of love'.

    *RETRO GAMING* ATI Rage Fury Maxx AGP 128 Pro (TESTED)

    Sold my Fury Maxx last year for $500 on eBay. Maybe I should have waited, haha.:p Edit: Nevermind. After checking Sold listing, I've apparently set the bar over the past year. :D

    AMD Claims Arm ISA Doesn't Offer Efficiency Advantage Over x86

    I feel like all of the negatives that x86 had 20 years ago have been either mitigated or outright fixed. The power-efficiency argument is mostly out the window now already - and that's with AMD tuning-down architectures that were designed for the mid-to-HPC end markets; I have to imagine that...

    Wah-wah, everything sucks. Nothings is a good deal for a fun tinker. Wahhh. We can all thank operations like this for the modern CPUs we buy not costing more than they do; if overstock inventory never found a home and needed to be written off, you can bet those losses would be passed on to...

    It's this guy here; https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CMPXQ2RK I spent WEEKS looking for a case that was compact, didn't look stupid, and would still fit a decently sized GPU and PSU. Very happy with it.

    Amazing price. I pre-ordered mine and it's served as the heart of one heck of a little build. Specs in signature.

    Intel shares drop after Trump calls for CEO to resign immediately

    It's alright - AMD can lay claim to basically every x86 design breakthrough since Intel put out MMX almost 30 years ago... And in a market that has turned against x86, a thinning herd that results in AMD being the lone remaining steward is a good thing; fighting over a shrinking pie is bad for...
