    13900K - Out of Video Memory or BSOD during shader compilation in two UE5 games

    So, my Intel 14700k desktop keeps crashing every day with a code 41 kernel error. Typically happens in the middle of the night according to event viewer. Same z690 motherboard used to have 12400 with no problems. Machine has only been lightly used for gaming. Nothing else heavy other than a...

    [Deadish - up to $80] [Warm] Refurbished HGST Ultrastar HE10 10TB SATA HUH721010ALE601 - eBay $70

    My 10TB has checked out so far. Did full format. Now running full surface scan. 48 power ons running 5 years. I also hear the “chunk” noise every 5 seconds or so. Not sure what that’s about.

    Zotac gaming geforce rtx 4090 trinity [open box] $1312.19

    About five years ago I had a zotac 1070 with a busted fan. They upgraded me to a 1080ti. Great service, no trouble or delays. This was during a mining boom as well. Asus on the other hand…

    5.1 (or 5.1.2) speaker set sub-$600?

    Don’t worry about atmos and vertical speaker placement. You aren’t missing out on much. I like RSLs and JBL 630’s for value at the moment.

    Best CPU upgrade options?

    My main am4 system already had 5800x (replaced 2700x). So I decided to switch over to my 12400 on z690 and upgrade to an open box 14700k from microcenter. $333 with included Star Wars game coupon. It also moves me from 2 Nvme slots on am4 to 4 on the Intel board. Intel plays so many...

    When Will 8K TVs Catch On?

    I doubt we will get native 8k content in the next ten years. But upscaling is getting much better. Sony TVs do a great job. I can imagine upscaling improving quite a bit in the next ten years to provide the image quality need to show off 8k.

    When Will 8K TVs Catch On?

    Where are you finding Avatar in 8k? It kinda proves my point.

    When Will 8K TVs Catch On?

    There is almost no 8k content and due to streaming taking over there is unlikely to be any for a long time. The human eye is more sensitive to contrast than resolution so getting an 4k OLED will be a better plan than getting an 8K lesser panel. Get this TV and enjoy...

    Love my 530’s. They are on stands so might as well have gotten the 580s. The 590 are huge!

    eARC required for Dolby Atmos?

    Long story short, For a basic sound bar arc (Dolby digital) is fine. Earc upgrades to Dolby digital Plus but on most soundbars you won’t be able to hear the difference. Earc also streams Dolby atmos but this only really matters with full 7.1 and higher setups. Streaming services only provide...

    Insane GPU prices in 2022 WTF?

    Inflation and the greater cost for wafers compared to last gen is to blame. Microsoft is losing $200 per each Xbox X as an example. Sony and Meta raised prices in most markets.

    RTX 4090 CPU Bottleneck

    I bet 90% of 4090 owners are system/CPU limited at 1440p and 4k in a lot of games. CPU improvements just have not been keeping up with GPU improvements now that DLSS is able to run things at 1080p and Up-res and insert new frames.

    [DEAD] HP.com: HP x32 Monitor 32" 1440p 165Hz IPS FreeSync + HyperX Alloy Origins 60 Aqua Keyboard $192.99 w/FS

    Me too. I am very tempted by 165hz IPS 1440 as a next monitor but it deal feel like enough of an upgrade.
