So my system is currently an asus b550-i with 5900x, 3080fe, 32gb of G.SKILL TridentZ 3200 CL14 memory, 2TB WD black sn850 as primary and ADATA XPG SX8200 pro as secondary. Answering a question for another user had me run crystal disk mark which I hadn't for a while on the XPG drive. It was...

You can't even search yet, but I jsut swapped my boot drive toa WD black SN850. With a asusb rog strix b550-i mobo a 5900x, 32 gigs of CL14 g.skill 3200mhz ram and an RTX 3080, I got a 3081. Anyone else try it?

So I recently had my rig melt down and seriously stop working. After some troubleshooting help the determination was that it crashed hard and corrupted the bios. It seems that the crash was due to memory issues despite having run the memory in the rig at xmp timings for the better part of year...

SOLVED: the problem with these symptoms turned out to be memory, and not the motherboard. The system crashed so bad it corrupted the bios. The symptoms discussed are mostly the symptoms of that. But not only do you need to recover the bios via flashback, you need to clear cmos after flashback...

I've reached the point where I now have some NVMEs hitting the spare parts bin with plenty of life on them that are faster than 2.5" SSDs, and I'd like to get some use out of them. Does anyone make the equivalent of a 4 bay NAS you can just JBOD a few m.2 NVME drives? Or even just a multi drive...

So, I built myself a new system end of October, and mid doing stuff just had it power off on me accompanied by a mattlic "tink" sound kind of like plucking a heat sink fin with your fingernail. Any idea what the hell that might be? Nothing else in the house had issues, no light flicker, UPS...

So my wife wanted my kid to get some stackable cubes to use as a book shelf. So I built them. The kid wanted them to be RGB lit. So I was like sure, it's like $50 with connectors. So... that was a bad idea. I've not got them installed, and while they tested ok, Linking them up I can't get...

I've been thinking to go small for my next build, but I was also going to finally upgrade my 1080, and have been waiting on their release. I've been doing a lot of reading and forum browsing on the subject, and I kind of hit a wall on being able to figure stuff out in terms of the viability of...

I debated putting this here or in displays, and picked here. I figure you guys are my best shot at getting an answer to this, which has been nagging me. So I recently was out with family, and we stopped at one of these retro arcade places. Lots of vintage stand up arcade machines and...

Witth the new spate of "gaming chairs" and various Chinese imports tyring to muscle into the herman miller, steel case, etc market segment, I started stalking things that looked promising. My 25 year old chair finally became unrepairable, so I had to get something. I'm also 6'7" ish and even...

Honestly most of the stuff I'm seeing looks a bit boring. Lots of kill the waves of monsters while standing in place kind of things. Dropping $700 on a VR rig to play things that look like they are meh vell phone games doesn't strike me as a good plan. So what's out there that's really...

OK, I'll try to keep it short. Getting my young kid a replacement for his existing tablet. Going form a nabi 2 to a nabi dream whatever. As of a few firmware revisions ago play was on the old one, and is on the new one natively. I was trying to download the handful of paid apps for the new...

Gamefly has x-com enemy unknown for sale for $24.99, and the 20% off PC games coupon code "1GFT1112" worked for me just now to bring it down to $19.99. I haven't seen it that cheap yet so figured I would share. Code is apparently dead.

I have had an iphone 3gs for a while now (my own). Work just got me a samsung captivate and stuck me with the job of being designated hitter for android mobile support. (For anyone interested, all the bitches you see in captivate reviews about the GPS are justified. It's slow, sloppy, and...

These are top notch bags that are different than most camera bags. I have a 4 million dollar home and 7 million dollar home, and like them a lot. They are hard to find discounted by much. The browm/green color stays pretty presentable if you find yourself dragging your gear through dusty dirty...

Well, remade, or revisited, but for technology reasons rather than just because you want a sequel. Things you really feel were good then, but would be even better with today's eye candy, physics, etc. The top title I keep wishing would have another entry in the series is Syndicate. That game...

pretty fun refresh of asteroids with more stuff going on. Also, it appears to have the [H] in it as one of the baddies. http://www.aeonity.com/ab/games/arcade-classics/neon.php

after messing with the video stress test, I finally got around to palying aorund in my own listen server for CS:source. The running speed is insanely fast, is this, a bug, a feature, some weird abberation on my system or what? I haven't played CS for probably a year or more, so who knows, but it...

I've ordered a lot of things from gogamer, and while some of them have been gray areas (imports, bundled disks, etc). This time I got an outright pirated copy. Bought freedom force for like $7 on 48 hour madness for a friend. Finally get around to giving it to them, they open it up while I'm...

For some reason, all of a sudden my flashlight no longer illuminates anything. This happened in the middle of playing this evening, and I'd rather not go back to my last autosave. Using 61.77 detonators. Might upgrade to try fixing it, but it was working just fine for the first 3 hours of...

I haven't seen this mentioned in any reviews or peoples' comments so I figured I'd ask here. Is the copy protection and network code for doom3 set up so that you can install off of one or two copies at a lan party and have people play together without cd-key issues? I just want to know...

Before 1.2 patch, it ran fine. last night as a matter of fact. i install farcry 1.2 patch and now when it starts, it gives me a cryengine critical error looking for languages/fonts/default.xml. There is a languages directory, but all it ahs in it is a movies directory. Any idea how...

Far cry is generally behaving for me except it keeps doing one VERY annoying thing. Namely every now and then, one of the mercenaries will notice me, appear to be going to get help, running away, or finding cover. Something that results in a character animation that involves the gun...

Seem to have misplaced my codes and binaries for stars!, and it looks like stars supernova is never coming out. And for some reason, I have an itch for a 4x game at the moment. any recommendations?

just bumping, it has now been 10 weeks + since I sent mine in with nothing. Anyone else get them? can't find my copies with the info for getting a status on them.

..who makes this sucker for real? I know the previous laptops form them were just sourced form someplace in funny colors and could be had MUCH cheaper under the sager brand name. Hwoever, the upgradeable graphics are a fairly cool idea if there is ever any upgrades made. however for...
