Just hide your posts, you have the ability to do so.

I think such a product would be hailed as exciting if its planted into a laptop that could truly push it. What i mean is we more or less have an understanding of how it performs in the desktop arena, so the challenge would be how close could you get it to desktop levels. The issue then comes from its BGA only nature of the industry at the moment, and what to do when the laptop fails during an overclocking session. It feels like an inverted product. Its the high end SKU but also set up on a platform where you dont want to push anything at all.

I think if they called it a 4080, probably would've been fine at least until people found out it was a 4090 die.

That doesnt corelate to my upgraded t440p, touchpad doesnt work regardless of driver, kernel, distro. For that system I have long since given up trying to use Linux with it.

Some of you may be aware of Shilka? or at least that was his handle back in the day. Heavy proponent of advising OCN on proper PSU purchases. People used to buy 1000w PSU's for quad core, single GPU systems which was just wasteful. He used to give advise like avoid PSU calculators, they are garbage, and that OEMs is more important than the brand that resells it, 80 Standard is a rubber stamp. Things that are common knowledge (I hope) now but back 10-15 years ago probably wasnt. Corsair reps would often become unprofessional in that sub-forum. Especially when the Rm1000 released, to which it was blasted as a more expensive, and lesser quality to equal priced competitors despite being the "budget" option. Things like "look into the OEM" was treated as a kind of dog whistle for the Reps to criticize as idiotic. The whole thing just felt dishonest. EVGA was much better a product overall, though they arent without their lemons (like every company with some history) Then you have the whole tramp stamp debacle, to which Yellow Beard (Corsair Rep) went on to the war path, it was not pretty. He is now banned or at least deactivated. Top it off with them advertising 16.7 million colors when someone checked the controller it was no where near possible to get that many colors. These days people dont expect it, Corsair started that shopping trend, at least for me. Lastly, they asked OCN for product recommendations. I suggested with how widely well received (though ill advised) CLC CPU coolers had become that its likely there will come a need to supply a demand for 360mm. To which I was told that market doesnt exist and thus would be a waste of time and resources.

I dont purchase anything from Corsair anymore. Their mods on various forums burned me from the brand altogether.

Ah I misunderstood, I thought this would be internal as a supplement PSU, otherwise, why bother? Just get an appropriate PSU 🙂 It was the daily driver system, so mostly just video games. I did bench the 5700xt on it just fine for about 350w through the 8-pin's. I misunderstood the intent here, though this would be internal in the case for the some reason.

My EVGA 550w did fine for the 3090 but keep in mind I locked it to 1v which translated roughly to 350w or so, still use it on my Am4 system with a 2700x and 5700XT. I pushed 325w-350w on the 5700XT as well on it. EVGA makes a solid PSU 🙂

I guess it's a luxury of an introvert, I keep the hype at arms length which affords me a better chance at not getting swept into it. World needs more humor, and less assumptions.

Im aware, however ideas and arguments based on tribalism are typically nonsense. I dont really use Wikipedia often enough to declare it anything, its a good aggregate for references. As for the open-source, its likely early days.

I doubt there is much value in the algorithm anymore, Twitter was just among the first to do it and enter the mainstream. I would like to say it's entertaining to watch but it's just continue affirmation of what looks to be tribal nonsense, which is more concerning to me.

For the same reason anything goes open source I would presume. It can be identified, though I imagine partisan players will have more fun on that front for the most part.

How is that game? I've been yearning for an JRPG but I dont have the time to search for something that scratches that itch.

She's a beauty! GLWS!!

It would be efficient, only left is a dedicated PotPC and a mini fridge

Doesnt make too much sense to me to go for a X3D chip on the 7950 but these days I am usually a few generations behind.

I think I use is KillDisk Ultimate for formats though usually only for decom, typical format fs quick is good enough for my uses most often That was the same for 5800X3D IIRC? For the PlugnPlay gamer they only care about the FPS. Now for the benching crowd Im sure they will be howling at the moon as its an afront to their basic principles. Im still waiting for the 5800X3D to hit a lower price point so I can have a more regular benching system.

Teeeeeechniiicallllllyy All the data would still be there, just the hooks for that data would be removed, isnt it?

I guess I may try Pop! again, last time I did it was with modded laptops and it didnt like the touchpad I had installed at all (still doesnt)

30 usd for an sli cable may seem high but the gtx 280's were free. Should hopefully get some gtx 690 SLI this weekend. No idea if 280's will play nice with windows 10 lol

I assumed you were talking about Plex for transcoding. Plex is like Steam works pretty darn well out of the box but it when it doesnt its a huge head ache lol I used Jellyin before when Plex switched their agent for Anime and broke everything on my server. JellyFin works really well but it had a huge problem of not loading subtitles on Android unless you start, stop, rewind and play again. Otherwise was great for me when I tried out it last.

I was mildly irritated that GPU transcoding requires a subscription/membership :( May look to try JellyFin again, worked pretty well for what it was.

Warranty service is relative. Dell have been having a heck of a time with failing G5/G7 without as so much as a theory for the cause. Even my boss had the same issue for his son's laptop. Turn it off one day and never comes back to life and we are a business partner to Dell, still sitting on his desk as he hasn't been able to get it refunded or warranty service. That being said you'll find horror stories where ever you look.

Me and my group used to play COH2 pretty often for a while. Some of the mod maps were fun too 🙂

Never thought of that, its obvious its almost a life hack.
