    PSA: Corsair.com's own web-store shipped "non-authorized HK" video cards to the US

    Ever since http://www.eagletree.com/eagletree-capital-buys-majority-share-corsair-transaction-valued-525-million/ Corsair has gone very far downhill. No longer what it was in say 2010 All they care about is $ is now and give no care about the crap they ship out. Just avoid the brand and buy...

    Anandtech: The Seasonic Focus Plus Gold 750FX 750W PSU Review: SeaSonic Quality at Mainstream Prices

    The problem is it's been well documented that Vega 56 and 64 DO have transient problems. You need a scope to see it as other measurements tools are more then likely not fast enough to catch the transient. We are talking sub 10ms Here is a post of it tripping the RM850i in muti-rail mode...

    Anandtech: The Seasonic Focus Plus Gold 750FX 750W PSU Review: SeaSonic Quality at Mainstream Prices

    People want to blame Seasonic for that one but the issue is AMD. Vega 56 and 64 have stupid transient spikes and OCP was kicking in. Vega 64 was having transients in excess of 40 Amps. I'm thinking it's due to the designs not having enough caps or big enough caps to smooth that out.

    FCC Wants To Cap Spending on Broadband for Poor and Rural Areas

    Say what you will but how many times has funds for internet in rural areas been abused and not used as it should be? Why do you want to continue to give them tax money that they'll waste and not use for the intended purpose and zero accountability for it? Both party lines are responsible here...

    NVIDIA Acquires Mellanox for $6.9 Billion

    Depends on how you want to define monopoly. If you look at GPU accelerated applications many will require CUDA and few will support OpenCL. And the ones that do typically show bad performance for various reasons. There is Vulkan Compute which isn't used much at all currently. Perhaps intel can...

    NVIDIA Acquires Mellanox for $6.9 Billion

    No, But they can make changes in the way it's implemented in their own products to force to buy form them for switching equipment or force others to buy chips form them to support their stuff. And guess what? Nvidia is a monopoly in GPU computing so companies have no choice but to deal with...

    NVIDIA Acquires Mellanox for $6.9 Billion

    Hopefully Nvidia doesn't find a way to screw up things like IB(InfiniBand) and make it incompatible with other vendors and force you to buy equipment form them to support their stuff like the DGX-1.

    Linus Torvalds Comments On Apple's Potential Move to ARM

    It's still possible to run x86 apps via emulation. Windows 10 does this for ARM based devices. Performance and overhead tho is a different matter and wont be good on both fronts.

    NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang Dismisses the Radeon VII as "Underwhelming"

    I don't understand why he needs to bash AMD. Are that they pitty? They also took shots at Intel too. If your product is vastly better you let the numbers speak for themselves and you don't have to say anything other than a professional statement if you asked to comment. Honestly it's time for...

    PlayStation, Xbox Console Competitor Mad Box Releases First Look at Their Design

    Why not a clean industrial design with good cooling? I guess have to jump on the RGB bandwagon... None the less competition is competition provided it actually can compete. If it can it will be a long road ahead of them.

    A non complaint cable is something that fails the rated stated for the cable. For example having too much crosstalk. Actually, CAT6 cable has a plastic spine compared to CAT5 and 5e which doesn't.

    Yes, It will work often even if it's wrong. The reason I say "Complaint" is if your cable isn't you can start dropping frames due to corruption which will lead to packet loss. There is a lot of pre-made cables that even fail this badly. They have set standards for a reason. Things like...

    To be honest there is very little reason to make your own cables unless you need a weird custom length. It's too easy to screw up and make a non complaint cable. You need to spend several thousand on a fluke tester to certify that the cable you made meets the specs. Doing it without that will...
