    Cooling options for a Corsair 450D case

    God help me, I'm getting the itch for a system upgrade again. The machine currently sits in a Corsair Obsidian 450D case, which I like quite a bit and would like to keep. When it comes to CPU cooling I plan to go with one of two setups: a 280mm AIO cooler attached to the front with the fans set...

    I might be surprised if the same thing hasn't happened EVERYWHERE the minimum wage got jacked up like this.

    "1080p ready"? Did you mean 4K-ready?

    Ubisoft Apologizes for "Controversial" Relationship in Assassin’s Creed Odyssey DLC

    And naturally, the only response the developer can give which won't piss someone ELSE off is to say that romance won't be part of the next game. The cynic in me wonders why they didn't see this coming, since I'm 100% certain the storyline for the DLC was written before the game was released...

    NVIDIA on the Cause of RTX 2080 Series Card Failures

    So the big questions now are: * Have the QC procedures been fixed? * When will cards that have been made post-fix enter the market? * Will the post-fix cards be identifiable to consumers, via new model number, box labeling, etc? * Will the cards that were made during the problematic QC process...

    WWW Inventor Unveils Plan to Decentralize the Web

    "Take on Amazon"? Unless he plans to open up a gigantic online store, I'm not sure how he plans to deal with Amazon. Is he planning to try and force them to offload their entire profile & payment system to his service? Good luck with that.

    ASUS ROG STRIX RTX 2080 Ti and 2080 1440p Preview @ [H]

    Thanks for the preview guys! My general take so far is that since I play at 1440p, I can do just fine with my Corsair 1080Ti in the games I'm currently playing. What's going to be interesting is when I want to play games that have DLSS or Ray-Tracing support, I'm very curious to see how those...

    Overclocking the i7-8700K while using the onboard graphics

    That's what I was wondering. I know that chip has a tendency to run hot, but I have no idea how much heat the igpu generates, and it if it would create enough extra heat to affect the overclocking threshold.

    Overclocking the i7-8700K while using the onboard graphics

    I'm looking to do a new build for my "utility" PC, which won't need any significant graphics horsepower as it's not a machine I ever sit in front of, I just access it through VNC. And I got curious about the i7-8700K. The onboard graphics are fine for what the machine's use will be, but from...

    What is your preference on case & radiator fans? (Price vs Performance vs Noise)

    I'm currently using Corsair ML fans in my machines(the non-LED Pro versions, I try to avoid making my PC look like a car from The Fast & The Furious), both for the case fans and I replaced the radiator fans with them as well. They generate a fair bit of noise when running at full blast, I never...

    Radeon Software Adrenalin 18.6.1 Drivers Released

    When did they start adding footnotes for the claimed performance improvements giving the detailed specs of the machine used to measure those improvements? It's a nice bit of transparency that I'm glad to see.

    Logitech G513 Carbon Mechanical Keyboard Reviewed

    I doubt it would be enough of an upgrade to justify ditching the K65 Lux I've currently got, but I've always found the Logitech lit keyboards intriguing. I really like how the Romer-G switches don't bleed light under the keys, I think it's a much better aesthetic than Cherry's LED switches.
