    LG Ultragear 27" OLED 240hz 1440P 27GR95QE-B

    I've been using this monitor since black friday and I'm really pleased with it. Those pure blacks are what I was looking for. Right of the start, I applied the settings in the TFTCentral video. For me, who generally reduce the brightness of my displays and increase the contrast, those settings...

    LG 2023 OLED TVs

    If I had a problem like this, I would just open the remote and disable/remove the motion sensor from the PCB. Must not be that hard to find and do. ;) Edit: unless it's baked into the IC of the remote.

    Need help, problem with Ryzen 7600 IMC or memory?

    New CPU & new RAM came back from RMA. Everything is now working fine! No need to reflash the BIOS or anything. The boot time is also quite a bit faster than with the previous CPU/RAM combo. Makes me think there was a problem right from the start. My only regret is that I was unable to determine...

    Need help, problem with Ryzen 7600 IMC or memory?

    Will do it if the new CPU/RAM doesn't give any positive result. But I won't waste a full week trying to make it work. It will already take a long time to get the parts back from RMA. I'm sending everything today and won't see anything back for what? Over 2-3 weeks for sure.

    I checked the socket pins and the CPU pads, all is looking like new. I did a RMA with AMD and GSkill. AMD already accepted the RMA. Waiting for GSkill's answer. I won't waste my time much longuer on this. Thanks!

    Need help, problem with Ryzen 7600 IMC or memory?

    Ok, here are the tests I've donne. All of them gave the same result. The CPU and DRAM LEDs stays on all the time and no post or boot. 1. Removed the graphics card and made sure the RAM was well seated in banks A2 & B2. 2. Tried RAM in banks A1 & B1. 3-10. Tried each stick in each memory slot...

    Need help, problem with Ryzen 7600 IMC or memory?

    Hi, I built a Ryzen 7600 system at the end of May (roughtly 45 days ago) and it has been working perfectly fine until this weekend. My memory was setup using the EXPO profile (VDDIO_MEM& 2 others related @ 1.35V and SOC 1.25V) and no overclocking was done at all. The Motherboard has the latest...

    How long do motherboards generally last?

    I have a friend who's still using his 486 DX33 he bought in 1991. He converted it into a linux server around 1998-99 and it's been running 24/7 since then. Last year he was sad that Linux was about to drop support for the 486. ;)

    DLSS4 will take a random frame into the future. Wait for DLSS5, it will take one closer the the frame you need. DLSS6 will be 10% close to what you need and then they will discontinue DLSS after that! :)

    Who else is waiting on Zen 4 x3D before upgrading?

    My plan was to upgrade next year anyway so I'm waiting to see if the x3D will be worth it or not. I may even wait until the end of 2023 for some more price drops on those if they are worth it.

    Mick Gordon (sound designer of Doom) issues statement regarding DOOM Eternal

    To me, a Doom game without John Carmack isn't a Doom game. It's just another shooter game made by some people. They clearly lost the gold old "It' done when it's done" way of doing things even if John himself said it was a bad way of making games. I didn't play Ethernal but just seeing videos of...

    Who is still using a Sandy Bridge era chip

    Still using my 2600K built in 2012 with 16GB of RAM on a MSI Z68A-GD65 G3. Ugraded the graphic card to a R9 390 in 2016 and went with SSDs over the years. Should upgrade next year if Zen4 is good when prices go down a bit.
