Seems like hardforum is dying.

I want to replace my gtx 960 2gb, looking at an rtx 2060 or 1660 ti. MSI, Asus, Gigabyte, etc, all have 3 or more variants of each card. Besides fan configuration, the "boost clock" is their primary differentiation. Base clocks appear the same. So the differences are factory firmware...

chimpee and derangel, thanks guys for the very helpful info.

I didn't mean to act like a dick, sorry about that. I meant reviews and most websites are a crap shoot, everybody loves it and some hate it, there's no real product scrutiny anymore. Everything is always great on all the sites.

Muddy waters, everything is always great, 50/50 at worst. Do you have a good tech site or are you really just pissing in the wind?

Where can you do research?

Interesting, do you think cheap consumer space is creating lesser standards, forcing nvidia to accommodate? I'm only interested in display port myself.

I couldn't care less who get's the "win" for accomplishing something, it appears to me gsync is the better implemented end-to-end solution. Not designed, but implemented. Strange they'd devalue their standard... guess the oems want to sell us less quality cheaper panels with their branding.

I thought nvidia launched the commercial movement towards "VRR" and Gsync is hardware in the monitor synchronizing with your nvidia gpu, with strict standards. Freesync is AMD's open source and uncontrolled, no standard, no qualification implementation of VRR?

So now there will be real "Gsync" and "Gsync compatible" (freesync)? But nvidia is actually qualifying the freesync "gsync compatible" monitors?

There are so many monitor brands, lines, and specs out there. Gsync seemed like a control gate for quality, in that manufacturers wouldn't put gsync on less than their best panels, and those would have higher quality control. Is this not true? Is Gsync now as untrustworthy and useless as the...

Like I said, it's just my experience and a data point for others to consider. It's sitting in an m2 slot with 8 fans in a full tower Lian li pc-a71f and no obstructions. If I had known it's an 80 MBps drive I wouldn't have bought it. 200 - 300 MBps minimum been would havemy guess, but it's...

Just my anecdotal experience, this nvme drive can't perform with moderate use. It may be throttling, seems to hit a heat envelope way too quickly. A minute or less and write speed drops from around 500 MBps then steady fluctuation between 50 - 100 MBps. hwinfo temps are 96 C max, 86 - 96 C...

Nevermind, error occurred at 1 hour 5 minutes as I was replying. [May 24 22:09] Worker starting [May 24 22:09] Beginning a continuous self-test on your computer. [May 24 22:09] Please read stress.txt. Choose Test/Stop to end this test. [May 24 22:09] Test 1, 68000 Lucas-Lehmer iterations of...

I'm testing with your suggestions, disabled Power Boost and upped max SOC power delivery to 110%. Just passed an hour of prime95 Large FFT test where I've been failing. 1. Board came with latest firmware. 2. My cpu is not an interesting sample, momentarily hits 4.1 in single core tests, but...

Understanding why this is happening is my goal, I've been racking my brain and the first possibility is CPU memory controller failure, but that seems crazy to me. For the record, I treat all my systems the same, assemble, test, adjust, test, retest, test, test, confirmed good. The only change...

Been out of the game a long time, I'd appreciate input on interpreting what's happening here. Assembled new system and have been validating with my usual routine; assemble, all bios defaults, install OS/drivers, update, then stress test for a few hours for several days. If everything is ok...

Even smarter to include a 6 month subscription to xbox whatnot, with a free game per month. For some reason people like buying mystery boxes.

They spun off their fabs many years ago, AMD has no stake in this.

That will definitely safeguard our nation, thanks Pentagon jackass.

When you don't get the result you need, change the parameters until you do. Yes, that fixes the problem...

I won't use win 10, the terms aren't agreeable for me. Next year I'll finally upgrade my aging 3770 to AMD and use Linux to VM my work apps on win7. That gets me by for several more years when I'll no longer specifically need windows.

:ROFLMAO: Google isn't happy a competitor is selling my location data, that they collected. Envy much.

I'm quite satisfied with copper lines, thanks.

I've been looking forward to this new spectrum, maybe they'll have a compatible phone by end of year, maybe. TMobile acquired this in early 2017(?) But no phones in 2018 support it.

Many Windows programs use IE to display http content, e.g. Steam. Without running IE directly you could inadvertently run malicious code which uses this exploit.

I highly doubt it. Have you seen the record sales of games? How are so many game companies in business if they have a 95% piracy rate?

"93 - 95% of pirates pirate games." Stupid stat fixed.

You're right, all companies are billion dollar organizations that have comprehensive security controls, and only billion dollar companies have executives... A pissed off employee could never leak login info for a service account and the vpn keys of a user. The rest of your post is kinda silly...

First thing I thought of, is a lower level employee with an axe to grind could easily compromise/sabotage a system so the execs would be punished. So no, this sounds nice but isn't the right answer.

I assume Microsoft wanted a huge codebase to analyze.

Aren't the lenses, sensors, and technology of phone cameras made by the same companies making regular cameras?

Pretty sure unauthorized credit card charges are illegal, this should be fun to watch. https://www.consumer.ftc.gov/articles/0219-disputing-credit-card-charges All the debit users will have more fun. :whistle:

Courage.

Bought one of the Batmans but couldn't force myself to finish it. Started great as an interactive story, would have been happy with a pure choose your own adventure, but there is interspersed "hit A to dodge, X to grab, up/down B roll" crap which is dumb and ruined the flow.

Cheaper than paying for employees, hobbyists have something fun to do, bugs get fixed. Win win for everyone.

That Nordic looking chick is cute, wonder what she benches, AMD or Nvidia?

Racist scum.
