    Looking for a 3D Printing Service

    I scanned through, and searched, and didn't see anything discussing printing services. But I know they exist, so wanted some feedback from the [H] crowd. I've been considering a printer myself, but I have a project (for family) that has a short timeline, and I don't expect to have time to...

    Reposting: A.I. for AsRock GPUs

    I put this in the AMD Video Cards section, but just realized there is a subforum for AI/ML, so maybe someone here might find this useful. https://videocardz.com/newz/asrock-wants-to-make-generative-ai-software-easier-to-use-on-radeon-rx-7000-series-with-its-new-ai-quickset-app It works for me...

    Breakpoint? ArcControlAssist

    I've never seen this error before: Anyone know what it is? Google returned general crashing games stuff, but I wasn't playing a game - wasn't even using the machine, the error was there when I returned after being away for an hour or so. -bZj

    $10 AutoZone Credit for Old UPS Batteries

    I skimmed around the forum, and didn't see a more appropriate place to post this, nor any recent mention of it, so here goes: I replaced an old battery in a UPS, and was looking for a place to recycle it. Google said AutoZone would take them. And, they did, and even gave me a $10 in-store credit...

    "P-Core Quality" & "CPU Indicator" in Latest BIOSes

    Anyone have info on this new item in BIOSes for 14th-gen CPUs? This is on my Z790 Steel Legend with a 12600K: The only things I can find online are in Chinese - nothing I've noticed in any of the recent reviews. See: 1st, 2nd, 3rd. -bZj

    Hot Deal or Leak? 14700K Pre-Built @ NE

    Got a Record on Time Spy (RX7800XT+12600K)

    I was playing around with OCing my RX7800XT SL and 3DMark last night, and I guess I set a record along the way: I noticed it said "Legendary" when I did it, but assumed that was just a random title they tossed on higher scores. 🤷‍♂️ It is a specific combo of video card with a 12600K, so pretty...

    It's Self-Propagating....

    If AsRock had released an A770 in Steel Legend guise I probably would have already bought that and skipped/saved $ vs. the RX7800XT. But I think the AT-er, AMD card will last for longer than an A770 would have (fingers crossed that Battlemage brings Intel up in the game for competition sake)...

    Any reason to expect 4xDIMM-DDR5 @ XMP with 14th Gen?

    The 4 DIMMs "OCed" via XMP seems a known issue. I saw a work-around suggesting that allowing each DIMM to handle it's own voltage solves it, but I only have 2x16GB right now. Changing the slot placement, too, is said to have an impact (kit 1 in A1/A2, kit 2 in B1/B2). But, I'd like to doubled...

    Pre-Reviews: A770 vs. RX7700XT (for NVidia Avoiders...)

    Before we seen the legit comparisons, just based on the pre-roll, at the mid-tier prices, are you expecting the RX7700XT to be worth the extra 50%? Maybe worth stretching to 7800XT (if you can get to $450, $500 isn't much further...)? -bZj

    What is my CPU Voltage? Also, Where's the FSB?

    What would you place your money on here? Allowing for a second of refresh-variance, these items could be a little different. But, I'm not even sure which one is worth looking at. (Granted, just picking one and using it as a baseline to undervolt/OC, would be workable, but still....) CPU-Z and...

    Shoot from the Hip: RX7600 vs RX6650XT? [Poll]

    I've got an RTX2060, and I'm considering a small upgrade. Is either the RX7600 or the RX6650XT a good option? Which would be better? Seems they have similar performance, maybe 4-5% in the newer card's favor. But, the RX6650XT is a couple bucks cheaper and seems to use noticeably less power (I...

    Arc A750 worth the Upgrade over RTX 2060 (non-Super)?

    I have an RTX 2060, and a 1440p monitor. I don't game a lot, but like the option to play new games if I choose (the 1440 is new, was @ 1920x1200, so anything in the 1080p range is fine). I've been out of the hardware scene for ages (this RTX 2060 was a gift), and the prices for GPUs are in-sane...

    Pagefile in Win11 - worth moving off NVMe-boot to small SSD or separate NVMe?
