    What happened to LucidLogix Virtu MVP and HyperFormance?

    It was total garbage in practice. I tried using it on my old motherboard and never found it acceptable. There was always a heavy trade off, or major compatibility issues. One of those pie in the sky ideas that sadly never took off because it needed too much industry support it was never going to...

    Need some help diagnosing an issue

    I have an issue where if I move the power target slider, and only the power target slider on MSI afterburner, my pc will reboot while running Shadow of the Tomb Raider benchmark, and Fire Strike Extreme gpu test 1. My initial thought was the power supply isn't holding up. But I can run Cinebench...

    Windows10 installion media creation tool : how current is current?

    Kinda a dumb question I likely know the answer to but gonna ask anyways. Looking to reinstall Windows 10 clean. I have the installation tool on a usb drive I made a couple years ago which I think has one of the first versions of windows 10 using that tool or slightly after. As the thread title...

    Google GDC 2019 Gaming Announcement

    This is garbage. Anyone with half a brain would avoid this shit like the plague. No one in their right mind should allow sreaming platform creators to turn gaming into the next subscription based "service" just like cable, and being a captive audience to the bullshit they are going to pull with...

    GeForce RTX 2080 Ti Now De-listed on NVIDIA's Online Store

    I've been happily gaming on mine since I received my EVGA 2080 ti XC ultra a week after "launch". I play on it 8ish hours a day after work and sometimes longer on the weekends. I've also installed a hydro copper water block on it. Not a single issue. Is it in the back of my mind it could explode...

    Xbox Chief Admits Microsoft Has "A Ton of Work to Do on Windows" for PC Gamers

    Hey remember when Microsoft had games for windows and everyone said it sucked? And remember when Microsoft said they heard the complaints and they were gonna fix it? And then remember when it kept getting worse and people complained more? And remember when Microsoft said they heard the new...

    Fan header capacity?

    I read most fan headers on motherboards are around the 1A ballpark for power. I have some Gentle Typhoon AP-15s from years back rated at 0.083 A each. How many of these can I safely put on a single motherboard fan header? Do I have to account for any kind of startup power surge? Realistically I...

    RTX2080 and RTX2080Ti Reviews online

    Wow this puts me in a rough spot. I REALLY wanted to get away from SLI as I'm currently running 980sli (not ti). The 1080ti felt like too much of a side grade to justify the price, and now the 2080ti looks like terrible price to performance ratio. I mean, i can afford it, but I'm just second...

    Caselabs HD casters kit?

    Probably a long shot but I'm looking for some HD casters for my caselabs th10. Seeing as how caselabs went under, does anyone know where i can find a place that might have stock of this kit, or maybe who caselabs supplier was for casters?

    The Last Remnant Will Be Removed from Storefronts in September 2018

    Story wasn't the best, the leveling system was wonky unless you know how to manipulate it, but if you love turn based RPGs, the gameplay is fantastic. One of my favorite non-mainstream RPGs. I have over 400 hours on it. Tons of ways to replay with different squads and attack loadouts. Shame if...

    First RTX 2080 Benchmarks Hit the Web with DLSS

    These slides raise more questions than answers. Nvidia should just man up and allow reviews to drop in the next week rather than at launch.

    RTX 2080 - 2080 Ti - 2070 Pricing Revealed

    So Kyle, sorry if its been asked 400 times already, but do we have any idea when the review embargo lifts? EDIT well I mean I know your friends at Nvidia likely won't be sending you one, but I mean from sources if you weren't told directly.

    NVIDIA Promises Spectacular Surprises

    Pretty much what I am expecting. A new gpu product line at asshole tier pricing while keeping existing gpu products at the same msrp they have been for the past 2 years. Expecting any less of Nvidia these days is folly.

    Another one of those....threads.....

    Just to follow up on this, now I'm getting a blue screen on start up after an extended period of the system being powered down. After being off for 10 to 12 hours, the system posts, but then right as it goes to load windows the screen remains blank. If i leave it long enough it comes back with...

    Delid question.

    I'm growing more and more interested in the idea of delidding a processor and getting the experience of how to do it. I currently have a 3570k and would like to practice on this CPU rather than a new one before upgrading, probably to an 8700k if the new 9th gen isn't coming any time soon ( or...

    PlayStation Sales Double Xbox One’s in 2018, according to EA Data

    BioWare: Anthem Is Multiplayer, but You’ll Still Have Control over the Story

    More multiplayer focused loot box and microtransaction infested garbage. People should learn to stop buying EA's games. You would think everyone had learned this after the whole Battlefront 2 thing.......and all the stuff before that.....but nope. Still a thing.

    GameStop CEO Abruptly Steps Down after Three Months on Job

    AMD Stock Downgraded, Bitmain Releasing Ethereum ASIC Miner

    Ok so I know very little about mining beyond the basics. Can someone please explain to me like I'm a child why these devices are apparently perceived as the devil and people screaming it will never be allowed to get off the ground? Is this all to do with gfx card "resale value"?

    Final Fantasy XV’s Benchmark May Be Misleading

    Yep same issue here. 5.1 audio results in no sound. Change sound setting to 44khz on 16 bit or 24bit and all I get is crackling garbage. Set the sound to stereo and it plays correctly. Either this benchmark is complete junk, or the port is. Not looking good for this title on pc.
