  1. oy! who are you and what have you done with my bud Ishatix? ๐Ÿ˜›
  2. omg yeah, Descent in DOS mode, good times! ๐Ÿ˜„
  3. surprised to hear there is a tv shows based on cyberpunk! then i realized its an anime, so no wonder i didnt hear anything about it ๐Ÿ˜„ the expanse is AWESOME! most realistic (in terms of physics) space opera out there, absolutely amazing ๐Ÿ™‚ btw, as a big supernatural fan i just realized that theres a spin-off coming soon, "The Winchesters". Jensen Ackles is still playing Dean W. narrating the "prequel story" of how his parents met and what kinda adventures they had together....hum....very on the fence and skeptical about that.... after 15 years of Supernatural it could theoretically only go downhill from here, what do u guys think? also, Jensen Ackles is awesome as Soldier Boy in The Boys (currently watching with my lady, shes HOOKED! ๐Ÿ˜„ )
  4. guess where those stockpiles would have already gone if the crypto craze wasnt over and Ethereum still on PoW....thats right, theyd all be sold to miners long ago. at least NOW theyre just sitting there waiting to be sold to US ๐Ÿ˜› but yeah, absolutely disgusting practice! if Nvidia hadnt bought tons of their chips and boards back from partners, prices wouldve fallen even more by now. but just give it another few weeks, the next avalanche of used gpus is still coming from all the ETH quitters ๐Ÿ˜„
  5. nice sum up, bud. just finished watching jayยดs and GN`s vids, just a small correction for the PSU profitability: the PSU margins are 300% of the GPU margins, so if they make 2% profit on GPUs, it would equate to 6% profit on PSUs. 300% margin would be insane ๐Ÿ˜„
  6. absolute shame but in the context of nvidia behaving like that its totally understandable. id love to see AMD or even Intel gpus by EVGA in the future, would be interesting.
  7. yep classic tale of the 980M and its wimpy power delivery...im actually using a premamod vbios with an undervolt applied to the core to max 1.00V to curb the power consumption at stock and make the card last longer. not in the mood for a burned gpu...
  8. are you guys f***ing kidding meeeee!?!? there i go having dinner with my lady, watching few episodes of The Boys, followed by some glorious gaming on my brand new Odyssey Neo G8 and what do I see on youtube when sitting on the can? no more EVGA gpus from the green camp, what. the. heck. ask bro @Mr. Fox i was JUST getting ready to buy my very first EVGA gpu with the upcoming 40 series....๐Ÿ˜… but u know something, after the first shock subsided im thinking: this might be the best time to switch camps in a looong time... RDNA3 should be as competitive as ever, why do u think Nvidia is cranking up the wattages so crazy high? no other option to stay top dog, kinda reminds me of what Intel did in recent years to stay on top of Ryzen... interesting times guys... btw, guess how fast and steeply priced those last ever EVGA gpus will be @40 series engineering samples. priceless! @electrosoftVince is the very last guy im worried about haha. any other vendors will lick their fingers to hire him. just the question if hes still in the mood after this...who knows, AMD Kingpin cards, anyone, manufactured by, say, Asus? that would be so weird haha ๐Ÿ˜‹
  9. oh boy, yeah we still remember the Gecube MXM desaster cards from the NBR days... questionable QC at best. so probably not the best idea to jump on this wagon too soon. also, 850 USD sounds too good to be true...
  10. ha, just goes to show that overclocking and score chasing is also just a bit of luck of the draw. if the stars, the moon and ur hardware align u might just get those few extra points to be the record. i expect follow-ups to get that score above 14927! ๐Ÿ˜‰ id say theoretically yes, every little bit of distance would help improve that thermal conductivity gradient through the applied K5 Pro layer.
  11. wth man...Nvidia doing their best to confuse their customers "oh look, that other 4080 only has 4 gigs less vRAM but so much cheaper! same card, same performance! such a DEAL!" ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธโ˜ ๏ธ on the bright side, just received my Samsung Odyssey Neo G8, holy crap is that a HUGE monitor! and amazing colors and blacks, dayum... still need to do some finetuning though. plus, my laptop isnt even strong enough to drive it at 240 Hz, max i can get is 96 ๐Ÿคฃ just a fewwww more weeks...
  12. oh gawd, MS please leave LTSC alone with all the shitty regular consumer OS crap...
  13. ha, im only reporting from laptop-land still but ive never used any xmp profiles cuz they never booted in the first place *lol* so it was always manual RAM tuning for me ๐Ÿ˜„
  14. omg such a trip down memory lane, exactly what i did with my first voodoo cards (1&2) once Unreal was out ๐Ÿ˜„
  15. ah, good ol' woodzstack, always lending a helping hand for us poor chaps looking for parts ๐Ÿ™‚
  16. well one thing is for sure, every new windows version needs a lot of work and customization to make it run proper. so with that in mind, with a bit of patience and elbow grease u can also make win11 an every-day driver.
  17. take out the keyboard, clean all the connections on both the cable and socket sides, then reseat. maybe that helps. otherwise, as @runix18 already suggested, u might have a faulty LED cable, thus time for a new kb.
  18. huh, i had no idea sabrent also does RAM! neat ๐Ÿ™‚ are those 4800 Mhz modules?
  19. yep, its funny how the crysis team forced the enhanced edition off the net in order to push through their own, INFERIOR remastered version ๐Ÿคฃ talk about misreading the room!
  20. ikr. although i dot understand the reasoning behind i.e. getting the vRAM chips closer to the main silicon to improve latencies and bandwidth. still, in such a form factor it shouldnt matter either way....compatibility is way more important!
  21. im actually rooting for him being wrong! and hes also been right a lot of times ๐Ÿ˜„
  22. ah, a man of culture, finally someone who understands me ๐Ÿคฃ
