    Bartlett Lake LGA1700 Q3 2025

    Not sure if Intel locked IMC in locked/Xeon CPUs but I would not be surprised it has limits. Should not matter for DDR4 though and especially if you are trying to get memory on a budget. One issue I see is that Xeons are usually quite picey when new. They are only super cheap when pulled from...

    LG Display Tease The First True Black 1000 OLED Panel and the Return of BFI for Computex 2026

    Strobing doesn't need to add any input lag. In fact without adding lag we could also have brighter strobing and at least without full screen brightness limitations. Unfortunately strobing is not only not a focus but there is a lot of incompetent people responsible for making these displays so...

    Would a modern CRT make any sense?

    If frame rate was something you chose in separation to anything else or something only limited by monitor then there is rarely any point to not using highest fps you can use. In reality fps is not free lunch and FG is terrible compromise which causes massive input lag. In this case its better to...

    Upgrading to 1440p, How would my PC handle 1440p Gaming?

    Pretty much all displays except most basic non-gaming office offering these days are compatible with Nvidia GPUs where it comes to variable frame rate tech. Just not all of them specifically claim G-Sync compatibility.

    Would a modern CRT make any sense?

    I wouldn't call strobing "natural". Also needing more hardware... not an issue if we have hardware. I just don't like these fake frames because the fake frames that we got are pretty bad because they make games more laggy. When Oculus did frame gen I loved it because it solved the main issue...

    Would a modern CRT make any sense?

    After carefully thinking about this I came to the conclusion that the best summary to what FG is is single word: SCAM It would not be and might have its use cases like these suggested by some people if it was reprojection. Otherwise trading latency for fake frames is just... ridiculous. Like...

    Would a modern CRT make any sense?

    At the time LB2 monitors were a thing was about the last time you could get something like FW900 for ridiculoussly low prices like $100. I got mine at the time friend got LB2 monitor and comparing the two... yeah, no comparison really. It was pretty cool to see LCD that sharp in motion and at...

    My i9-14900K Benchmarks

    My attempts with anything turbo resulted in much higher vcore than I have expected to see and clocks dropping like crazy with load so I gave up on it quickly. Looking at discussions about RPL overclocking a lot of people use offsets and get good results. They seem to control some strange...

    My i9-14900K Benchmarks

    You mean it as the max clock in hwinfo64 not being for all core but merely momentary reding across all cores? To be honest I have no idea how turbo boost actually behaves in this platform other than my tests indicating I didn't really see much if any improvements doing benchmarks in typical for...

    My i9-14900K Benchmarks

    Wait... is your 13600K doing 5.7GHz with vcore at 1.224V... how is this possible? 🤯 Am I reading it correctly?

    Wanted FW900s

    Just to avoid such issues I am not selling mine XD

    How can you put WOLED and QD-OLED in to the same bag?

    My i9-14900K Benchmarks

    1800MHz (3600MT/s) at these timings is pretty good considering I got overpriced underperforming 4400 ram and when I got second pair they did together similar to your 3200 sticks and at considerably higher IMC voltages than what I needed for two sticks. Or in other words I have/had much more...

    My i9-14900K Benchmarks

    On CPU-z you have mem controller frequency 800MHz. I have 2000MHz. Are you running in Gear 1? You should for DDR4 run in Gear1 as Gear2 is for DDR5 basically and runs part of the IMC at half the clock. My understanding is that its better to run Gear1 than 1T if either one had to be at 2. Also I...

    My i9-14900K Benchmarks

    On my 13900KF @ 5.4GHz/4.3GHz flat with zero turbo boost and without Hyper-Threading so 24 hardware threads. DDR4 4000MT/s CL19 2T My only load that I care for (Quartus) runs mostly on single core (so much so that giving it 1 P-core and 15 E-cores would yield only 1s slower performance versus...
