    A.I. couch co-op and pass the controller can/should be the killer feature on next gen consoles

    With the AI takeover in the near future, I was just thinking how cool it would be to be able to “pass the controller” to an A.I. buddy when you get frustrated with a certain section of a game or if you just dislike the mission type. This would also be pretty great for local co-op games or...

    Controlling system/gpu fans in arch/manjaro? Software or hardware?

    Im taking a test drive of Manjaro on my main rig to see if I can make it work for my day to day and the one thing I can’t seem to get around is controlling the fan speeds. I found some helpful tutorials/forum posts on getting lm-sensors setup and I can see the fans after I force it to look for...

    FS: Tesla autopilot/FSD anti-nag device

    I realize this is a long shot but I know a few folks here have teslas. I picked this thing up about a month ago and decided to spend a little bit more money and get a different product.

    Windows 11 doesn't play nice with repacks?

    Disclaimer: I'm not debating the ethics of using repacks. Much like NO-CD cracks, some people just want to use the games they paid for and not be forced to auto-update game versions that may or may not break mods (I'm looking at you, Cities:Skylines on Steam) or that use some janky DRM that...

    Frequent internet 'hangs' or becomes unresponsive

    The title is pretty self explanatory... Everything will be 100% good to go one minute, and the next, all internet traffic sort of just hangs (Internal network still works fine when this happens btw). When I click a URL, for example, nothing times out and nothing loads... the progress icon just...

    Like the tile states, I’m in need of a low profile nvidia GPU for use in a NAS/Plex server. Doesn’t need to be anything crazy powerful, but don’t want something that’s 15 years old either. LMK if you have something you want to get rid of.

    GPU hotspot?

    I was doing a bit work on my machine, trying to tune my fan speeds, and happened to notice the hotspot sensor in HWInfo after a run in superposition with a temperature of 105* 🤯 This is a bit baffling since all of my other temps are significantly lower. The second highest temp I’m seeing is one...

    Pump on EVGA 3090 hybrid cooler making noise.... looking for options

    So I think the pump on this cooler is on the way out... it's been making an annoying buzzing sound, and looking through their forums, it seems somewhat common. Unfortunately I purchased it second hand so it's not covered by the transferrable warranty, and I'm looking for options. I was...

    I built this rig in February of this year and just recently realized that my memory was only running at 2133mhz, well below the advertised 3600mhz, and I'm aware that faster memory does have an impact on performance on this platform, which is why I opted for 3600mhz memory in the first place...

    I was given a “broken” ideapad by a coworker a while back and I’m just trying to get it up and running. When I turn it on, the power LED glows along with the front facing camera LED, and the CPU fan starts to spin for around a second or two and shuts itself back down. The screen never lights...

    Haswell Overclocking, 4790K heat issues

    I managed to snag this CPU, used, for a mild upgrade to my aging 4770 system (non-K). When I installed it, I noticed a fairly gnarly scratch on the bottom of the CPU cooler, that I'm wishing I took a picture of now... but decided to install anyway since it never gave me an issue with my 4770...
