    Nvidia will add anti-mining flags to the rest of its RTX 3000 GPU series going forward

    It's all BS. I refuse to buy a crippled card for the same price! I just took myself out of the waiting list! There are a lot of ways they can implement to prevent cards from getting into miners hand but they are just taking the cheap easy way out.

    Monoprice 32in 4K HDR IPS Monitor

    The flash is very fast like sub second. I almost want to describe as like seeing lightning on half of the screen. It only happens once or twice each day. Other than that, no other problem. For the price i paid for it of $280 (on sale price of $290 + some other discount at that time on ebay)...

    Monoprice 32in 4K HDR IPS Monitor

    This panel is used in several 32 in 4k monitors (benq, crossover also among others) with all of them having the occasional screen flash issue. I am aware of it and it happens once or twice a day, and i have my monitor for well over a 1yr now. no other issue. Once a while it goes on sale for...

    i can't open that link anymore. However, this is the monoprice 32in 4K that you would be looking for: https://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=27772 It's OOS right now because they have it in stock by batches, and not continuously. I am pretty sure it will be back in stock again at some point...

    HP LP2480ZX

    i just bought one of these on ebay and i think i made a big mistake of buying this instead of the 2475w. It has a pink purple tint like a bunch of other lp2480zx on sale on ebay. and there is no way to adjust the red green and blue channel in the monitor ;(. Anyone got any advice? please...

    LG 32UD59-B 32" 3840x2160

    to test for input lag, you need two monitors. best if the base monitor is a crt since those have like virtually no lag. 2nd best would be those high refresh gamer monitors that had been tested with known input lag time. or you can use well known ones like hp lp3065 which I think has a lag of...

    Klipsch Promedia 2.1 -- two sets; older (heavier) new (lighter) - Sub/amp

    I just bought a new set and the weight difference is very noticeable. The latest 2.1 doesnt even have a power switch in back. It still makes a lot of bass but the high notes appear lacking on the new ones. Not surprising since i heard the high range amp got changed for worse components. I...

    Where does IE8 first temporarily save download in progress file to?

    Found what I was looking for!! Win7 goes to extreme length to hide the content.ie5 folder on my computer. Even after already enabling showing hidden files, etc it still won't show it inside the temporary internet files folder. I have to manually append the content.ie5 to the folder address...

    Where does IE8 first temporarily save download in progress file to?

    Yes, i can confirm that it did delete the incomplete download as after my download finally timed out, it frees up 2GB space on my C:. Then again I was actually looking for that temp file to copy it out before it got deleted. I will have to test this out later tonight with another download....

    Upgrade from 4790k and future proofing

    Thoughts on first gen E5-2670

    for PSU, go with evga 750 or 850 B2. if you don't care about no warranty look around for Lenovo d30 psu 1100w gold plus for less than 50usd. I have a dual e5-2670 from natex too. works great. I also got a Lenovo d30 with same cpus. one of the few 2011 server MB that support s3 sleep...

    Will Nvidia do away with the DVI port?

    I dont mind it if they replace the dvi with 2 more dp 1.3 and allows for 6 monitors simultaneously.

    Is there a difference when gaming between the 6700k and 6800k?

    it won't make any difference for gaming since most game above 1080p are gpu limited. and if you really need the multithread apps then you should look elsewhere. like2x e5-2670 which cost $130 for 2 cpu and would completely clobber a single 6800k at anything heavily threaded

    Dual socket build, which Xeons to look for?

    don't see really much 2686. like strat said, it's a custom chip so not as much avail. I am actually surprised that it's doesn't cost higher than 500 b/c the only other 18 core is the 2699 which is like $1k.

    Dual socket build, which Xeons to look for?

    I think the e5-2686 v3 while more expensive at $500 is the best deal compared to 2673 or 2683. you get better clockspeed and a lot more cores for not that much more.

    e5-2673 v3:Intel Xeon E5-2673 v3 (#263-0955) 2.4GHz 30MB 5GT/s SR1Y3 LGA2011 Processor $400 e5-2683 v3: Intel Xeon E5-2683 v3 OEM/Retail SR1XH LGA2011-3 Compatible X99 i7-5960X $350 either one depends on if you like multithread or single thread.. seems like the e5-2683 is more widely...

    Dual socket build, which Xeons to look for?

    seems like the e5-2686 v3 has become rare now. I can't find much of any oem or qs at all. e5-2683 v3 seems a lot more common. e5-2683 v3 is 14 cores

    cheapest x79 CPU compatible with Rampage IV Extreme

    I have a hp z800 with dual x5650 also. I built a dual e5-2670 recently and it kills the dual x5650 in multicore. True, if you are not doing much multicore work, it doesn't make much sense. but xeon is never really about single or quad core. all these single cpu board are pretty much a very...

    cheapest x79 CPU compatible with Rampage IV Extreme

    if you get the e5-1650 you better overclock it otherwise, the e5-2670 is a much better deal.

    Dual socket build, which Xeons to look for?

    yeah all the v2 cpu are still very expensive relative to v1 and that won't change til a massive server recycle hit like with v1. some says might never happen b/c a lot of companies didn't upgrade from v1 to v2. v3 is still very current so price still very high, even ES cpu are still high and I...

    but the asrock do have trouble with sleep in win10 though and many people also experience random crashes in win 10 with it. .. if you are sticking with lga2011 v1/v2, should also consider oem WS like Lenovo d30 dell t7600 hp z820. the Lenovo only have 4 pcie so might not fit your build but hp...

    SLI 970 good enough to support my display?

    cpu won't be the bottleneck when you are over 1080p for most games. 970 sli should be able to do many titles at 1440p as long as you don't go crazy on AA and all the details.

    upgrade CPU/mb from 4930k 4.4 OC'd hex core to 6700k 4.2 turbo or wait for 7700k kaby lake?

    I am running i7-2600k right now and its still the gpu that's the bottleneck for anything above 1080p res in games. unless you are doing cpu intensive tasks and I am talking about only 1-4 core cpu intensive tasks, there's no point of upgrade from what you have to skylake. If you are doing...

    Will a GTX 1070 get bottle-necked by..

    unlikely to be bottlenecked unless running at anything less than 1080p resolution. it's remarkable how good SB are still after all these years. even with the pice 2.0, its still won't be much of issue unless running SLI or pcie based storage.

    Nvidia Drivers will not install

    you need win 10 build 1511 at least to install the win10 drivers for gtx 10xx. found this out last weekend myself. you probably got the initial release of win 10. So you either need to install all the updates or find a win10 b 1511 and do clean install. The latest win 10 is actually 1607.
