Is condensation an issue (or even possible) if the whole thing is outside in open air? Assuming that the air/ambient temperature is lower than anything else, I mean. Though I would think there are plenty of other potential problems with it being outside, and I guess it depends on if it's in a...

Well, pure gold theoretically doesn't tarnish, but I don't think any of this stuff would be pure solid gold, and plating is probably really thin and easily worn away. Gold also won't stop other crap from building up, like if the air is humid and filled with contaminants. I'm imagining, for...

So does anyone have some suggestions? I wouldn't even know where to begin with figuring out whether any particular card will have the quality I'm looking for, especially with the clean power delivery.

I have a few different audio interfaces/mixers that are USB 2.0 or older, I guess 1.1 would have been before that? And I may need to use others in the future, possibly older used equipment. Since audio stuff is nice in that as long as it's good quality and works well, you might not benefit...

Do you happen to have links to resources that explain these configurations and optimizations? I'd love to have something that I can keep and reference for audio and general latency stuff, as it's something I've had issues with in the past, and you certainly seem to know your stuff. Thanks!

Well, I'm not totally sure if certain legacy devices like some audio interfaces will work exactly the same on USB 3, and stuff like latency is a concern... But if there are any cards that meet the other requirements and are guaranteed to handle USB 2.0 devices exactly the same (or better?), I'd...

I'm in the need of a nice USB expansion card to take some load off of my on-board USB for webcam, audio, and some other stuff. I took a quick look around and it seems like there are a lot of options, but not necessarily anything recent or of particularly high quality. At least, it's hard for...

Well, this sucks. I can't say I expected much, but at least more than this. Still no decent - let alone good - information, and at least two months away, probably more for any nice non-reference models... I've had AMD/ATI cards for as far back as I can remember after Voodoo... One or two...

I guess it depends on what you(or he) would consider something special. If he had said "shouldn't need to do anything to take advantage" or even "do anything differently" then it would be more explicit. As it is though, you could say that a developer having to code for something isn't...

Watch from about 4 minutes in that video above your post.

Are image retention/panel wear and brightness the only reasons to not leave the OLED lit up for a longer time? I'm imagining that with the speed of OLED's transition, the ideal image smoothness would be really high refresh (240Hz?) with the pixels lit almost constantly. Maybe that's a wrong...

Pay hasn't increased along with inflation and production output, which is one of the reasons we need to have a UBI a decade or two ago... People aren't able to buy the things being produced.

Well the star one is really poor quality, with compression artifacts all over it, turning the glow into a big mess. The NASA one clearly has two distinct sides, with the left being more washed out with more brightness, lighter blacks, because of the glare. It's also really hard to say how much...

Light-emitting diodes... require a backlight... wat

Damn assholes are spending all this money on the fucking packaging and we don't even know what the hell good the card is, yet... And if it's water cooled only that would really suck.

Nice quintuple post, jackass. Learn how to use the edit function if you're going to continue these rants. I don't know why every Vega thread has to turn into a shitfest.

Please stop saying 2K, 2560x1440 is not 2K.

Yeah, when I set Afterburner like in those shots, it locks everything like that. Nothing changes it, not games, not GPU-Z's render test thing, not Clockblocker. That allows it to run a stable desktop environment though, without dropping out my USB bandwidth from all the DPC latency shit that...

Alright, well I tried again... Manually deleted the AMD stuff in the System32 DriverStore, ran DDU, restarted, ran it again just to be sure. Fully uninstalled Afterburner, installed the newest driver package "non-whql-win10-64bit-radeon-software-crimson-relive-17.1.1-jan16.exe" and restarted...

Cool, well I tried that. Must not have fully cleaned everything for some reason. It went into safe mode and everything though... So what do you suggest? How can I fully strip all AMD drivers and settings(game profiles, etc.) without reformatting? Is there some trick to DDU that I'm missing...

Just tried it after a driver reinstall. It doesn't work... just kicks the GPU into some weird state where the memory clock goes down to 150 and everything gets scrambled. I would just use WattMan, but there's no way to set it to stay at a specific clock, and the variations cause a ton of...

Seriously, there's no way? And yeah, "unofficial overclocking mode - without PowerPlay support" is what used to do the trick for me to lock exact clocks. Now none of it is working. As a bonus, WattMan seems to be a barely-functioning piece of shit with no decent customization options.

So, fucking Windows 10 just forced a driver update on me, and now I have WattMan, which is overriding my Afterburner settings which I used to set fixed clocks... because the constant fluctuations cause a bunch of DPC latency issues. Is there any way to remove this fucking horrible addition to...

I think it was the panel used. ;)

Let's see something with these specs, but 2560x1440 and FreeSync. :D

So much glow... :eek:

Ah, interesting... Yeah, I'm really curious to see the specs for that 27" one. The design is a bit strange though, and it doesn't really look like it would be able to attach to a regular mount... I wonder if there would be an adapter or something...

I'm in a somewhat similar situation... I'd like a 2560x1440 27" display with 120Hz or higher (so basically just 144 I guess) and FreeSync. But the catch is that I want a high quality display with strong color accuracy and no IPS glow... So from what I've read it seems like I want to be...

I don't know what this "good info" is that you're talking about, because I don't see anything useful. But yeah I need a new BIOS and chipset drivers or something to solve this shit. I desperately hope it's not more complicated than that.

Yes! I'm having a lot of issues... I built this rig for streaming, and my webcam is choppy as hell, my USB audio interface cuts out and dies. There's a ton of DPC latency. I'm using the same gear as my old PC which ran it fine - just way underpowered - so I'm extremely disappointed. It's...

I'm really hoping for OLED to proliferate in monitors in the next few years... I hate back-lighting quite a bit. So I want a 27" 1440 OLED that can do 240Hz with FreeSync. I'll be disappointed if I can't get an affordable monitor like this in the next 2-3 years. As a real dream I'd love to...

This is a great thread, but I'm curious... I don't see anyone here talking about streaming. I'd love to see what the performance difference there would be. Especially being able to push higher encoder settings/presets.

Still no word on if the new 5 will be up on Project Fi's invite purchase page?

People who expect their phones to replace a nice DSLR or whatever else confuse the hell out of me... I'm not even into cameras and I know that no matter how much resolution and processing they put in these phones, they'll still have tiny crap lenses. You need a lens of sufficient physical size...

Is there any talk or confirmation of whether this will be available with Project Fi? I got an invite, but I don't want to buy the older and quite expensive Nexus 6, so I was hoping to wait for this.

Can we get some high quality photos in here? I'm really curious about this now... :-)

Is that STILL the case?? That's kinda shitty...

I love how they keep inviting people who don't even intend to use them... COME ON GOOGLE! LET ME GIVE YOU MONEY!!! :mad:

Does anyone know if there's a way to move the invite process along? My phone recently exploded and I need to get as far away from Verizon as quickly as possible.

You're expecting it to push fifty million pixels? What would you even do with that?
