Looks like it would work but one review says it still only provided stereo from Windows. I don't think there is a way to convince games to do encoding. HDMI sound might be similar to the optical where it needs to be encoded to do surround? My experience with surround over HDMI is only using...

That was the whole issue though, I had to click the create download link 10 times before the correct link showed. But also can't tell that the bad links were incorrect until you download it only opens one more tab with a single link each click. I didn't check the file size.. , win11 keeps...

The problem is there is no other link. I am not new to the internet lol. It literally takes you to a page with only one link, and it isn't a big green button. It literally took me to the doanload links I posted above the first 9 times, and a couple sites that were blocked by pi-hole. Only...

Ok I kept clicking "create download link" to see how many versions of the fake file there were. The 10th time I clicked create download link, I got the page you posted and it downloaded a larger file that appears to be the correct size. I don't see any kinda checksum protection. Will try it...

The file that downloaded was named AAFSBXFiMB5Setup.exe, When you launch this file it installs something called SmashApp as part of it's install, this app goes out and downloads malicious software. The file is named as the driver, but it is just a virus. Try it if you don't believe me, just...

This is literally the rest of the directions to download the file that was a virus. Chrome will block it, my raspberry pie's pi-hole blocked the site that the SmashApps installer tried to access. I bypassed that too because i thought the file was legit. It obviously was at some point, because...

it is I donloaded the file again. It installs smashApps, which is a doanload redirect app, then that installs Bangsearch.Pro which hijacks your browser. I have been unable to remove it so I will need to reformat. this is the file I downloaded: This then allows you to download...

It was apparently a virus as my browser has now been hijacked after attempting to install. So now I will need to reformat and look for another solution. Haven't had a virus in years! It was certainly the file linked from this link that caused it. This just cost me another weekend of time and...

Is this a virus? Chrome determined the file unsafe. I installed anyways and all it did was flash a command prompt and run something in the background then closed it real fast. Still no surround sound options for optical only I have no idea what it did to my computer. Well I guess something...

I have the B650E taichi lite

Interesting solution with the HD Bracket. I guess the advantage of this over just getting a soundcard is that it won't eat up my extra PCI-E slot? I think the easiest solution may be to ditch the onboard sound card for an old school sound card. Thinking about this one...

Sure, haven't found any for the ALC4082 though. I think hacked divers also require you to turn off driver signing.

Well if they put 3, 3.5mm audio jacks in the rear panel like they do on their cheaper boards, similar to what had been done for the last 15 years by almost all motherboards then it wouldn't be an issue. The 5.1 works but I had to buy an extra 3.5mm cable to run the rear speaker channel out the...

Don't get teh TaiChi if you want 5.1 audio in games. The optical output only works for 5.1 in movies. I'm thinking about replacing mine with something else. Alternativly, you can hack your front panel audio port to get 5.1 to your speakers, but then you have a cable sticking out of the front...

I made the mistake of buying the Asrock TaiChi Lite. I wouldn't buy it again knowing it has this issue since I do have 5.1 surround. The motherboard requires you to use the front panel 3.5mm jack in order to get 5.1 sound. The optical output will only play 5.1 for movies because ASRock didn't...

I used NVDIA control panel to optimize the game and it took me well over 200 FPS but it didn't look as good. Seemed to want me to be able to do over 200fps since the monitor can handle 240htz, unfortuntatly the 4090 can't display 240htz at this resolution since it does not have display port...

I didn I watched the full video but the benchmarks are in 1440p.. I'm running about 4.5x that resolution, pretty sure the GPU is the bottleneck. 7680x2160 vs 2560 x 1440 like in the video. CPU difference should be negligable as the GPU is the bottleneck. At lower resolutions like 1440 the...

IDK I still see it.

No I'm dipping below 120fps. Trying for a solid 120fps to avoid jerky screens. I don't know, I haven't figure out undervolting yet. GPU rail is reading 639v available. I feel like solid 120fps or above should be attainable.

Without adding any voltage right now I am runing +250 core and 1250mhz memory and the card seems to be peaking at about 47c in a fairly warm room. Max power to the card was recorded at 475 watts while in gaming.

Hey guys, I finally picked up a 4090FE and bult a new computer based off a 7800X3D. This was kinda forced because I also upgraded my Monitor to the 57" Odysse. The monitor was great for work as a software engineer, but has also caused me to upgrade the computer to play modern games, thus the...

I finanlly rebooted to finish the update and have noticed my battery going dead sooner, and my battery died last night so yes it does seem to run out sooner now.

Odd, they were rated one of the best drives back in the 1TB / 2Tb days. I had some running for many many years, they just got too small to bother with. Heck they probably still work, but they are no longer in use. Segates were the worst. They had some buggy firmware where you would just get...

Interesting every 2-1TB seagate dirve I bought died about 10 or so. While I have had a few WBs die to the numbers were fewer. I miss the old Samsung drives.

I'm really hesitant to call this a better phone than the pixel 4XL. I miss the face unlock which was very responsive unless your wearing a mask. The new fringerprint unlock is the worst I have ever used, it does not even unlock most of the time. Please just put a regular sensor on the back of...

So I just got my pixel 6pro unlocked and have been unable to download the e-sim even after hours in chat with support. Verizon site says my esim is not valid / not compatible or something when I try to do it myself. support couldn't activate it on their end either. I am on an old unlimited...

I got a new charger dock off amazon that works fine. Still trying to return the charging pad, I may have to dispute payment since the company won't answer. The cheaper pad is verified to work with my phone, so I will just get that one, or go back to wired charging in the dock that came with...

I don't think my wife's 2018 xc60 had wireless charging, Maybe the next trim level up had it. She got the car trim, but added the T6 hud 360 camera etc. Tesla does not have Android auto yet, they could add it I guess, but we're both prefer the Tesla system to her Android auto anyways. First I...

Well you can futs with plugging your phone in while driving then...Or build your own if you have a 3d-printer I suppose? here is the tesla version: https://shop.tesla.com/product/model-3-wireless-phone-charger No it's not standard, tesla recently added the accessory to their store though. The...

You can always turn off gesture navigation. I'm not sure I'm a fan of it myself. I prefer the finger print scanner to face id for sure. My biggest complaint is that the wireless charging is too picky.

Is it though? I tried a couple more chargers and had the same issue. Finally I found a belkin charger that works just fine. I would like to be able to charge it in my car though, that's the one use case where I really want wireless charging to work. Anywhere else it's more of a novelty.

There are others for $50 and $100, but the $50 might not be as good and the other $100+ one does not have the ability to charge a wired phone or do landscape charging. I plugged in a power bank to the wireless charger, and while it did not jump up to 10 watt+ charging, it also didn't shut...

https://support.google.com/pixelphone/thread/17602276?hl=en I spent an hour in the phone with support only to tell them I need to do a factory reset on a great phone that I just spent 3 hours setting up. I'm thinking to return both my $120 charging pad and my phone at yours point. This is the...

I want to add wireless charging to my pixel 4xl since the factory wireless charging does not work right. What is the best way to do this. I can't just buy a pixel stand to make it work right because I want to use the wireless charging pad in my car. Thanks!

Yea, it was a port that went bad on my original pixel 2XL. The headphone adapter wouldn't work.

My port is just worn out, probably from plugging USB-C cables in and out of it. They all fit lose, so sometimes I'll plug it in and it will start charging, but by the time I set it down the cable has partially come unplug and the phone won't charge. Wow I removed the pocket lint and it's...

My Pixel 2XL is getting picky about which cable I plug it into. It was also refurb because my first one developed a usb-c issue where the headphone adapter would not work.

There are a hell of allot less devices to support though.

Don't you lose some of the It's super easy to root a Google pixel phone Thats true, since I usually don't need FLAC while camping etc. I guess I'm too old school for modern tech, I like to just drag and drop my music over, rather than flip through all the different streaming media apps. I...

Sounds like it would work well for my dad then. For me I have lots of ripped mp3s I copy to my phone that I use while camping and at work. Lots of areas still have no coverage or poor signal so cloud playback is nice but not good enough for many circumstances. I just open explorer and copy...
