Hows the ol' 2080ti stacking up these days? Been debating the 6900xt or 2080ti, no idea if they are similar or anything just the only 2 cards I still hold an interest for. No idea where I would source a 2080Ti but I know the accelero xtreme IV works with it and gosh darn it its been a long held dream to have that cooler on something

I have a list of things I want to cover alongside this topic, now that we have completed the domain name change and @Hiew for now has gotten a little caught up on the work side of things we can more constructively see how we can make some changes

Under an ideal scenario it can last quite some time. I think Raidriar had his for 5 years? ideal scenarios are hard to come by

Its true there is the inherent risk, its particularly troublesome when it dries out, its usually due to poor contact (which is very relative). poor contact being a much smaller threshold when compared to nearly anything else.

32767 is a combination I searched high and low for and should be heralded from the rooftops

In these types of scenarios would you want to have vsync on or off within each video game?

Its just a heated discussion, it doesnt mean I hate you or anything like that. Me, @Mr. Fox and @Papusan along with many others all got into numerous arguments on laptops to the point where I was blue in the face and still engaging. Just because there is a difference in opinion doesnt always 1:1 translate to right and wrong. Sometimes a difference in opinion is only just that. The world keeps spinning, just because you have a different take shouldnt mean automatic categorization into an oversimplified box. It is but 1 topic to which there are infinite.

Yeah might be best to return it for another panel

Looks to be available there, you may want to try using DDU and start fresh. Make sure to uninstall all AMD drivers as well since you had a 570 8GB before this. @Mr. Fox @electrosoft @Rage Set@Papusan Have you guys experienced issues with Freesync panels ? For now I recommend DDU since this desktop used to be running AMD RX 570 8GB.

You will need to provide way more information @bendella Firstly, Benq EX2780Q is not a g-sync monitor, while the casual consumer may not know this (including myself) g-sync used to be an actual hardware component that was added into various panels. This monitor does not have this, but it is Freesync and it looks to be by the manufacturer stating it does have software validation for G-sync. I believe you already know this but its helpful to provide as much information as possible for onlookers to offer up a better troubleshooting. Can you provide your PC's specifications, cables used, driver version and the GPU you have? Also take a look at the monitors OSD (On-Screen Display) and see if there is a Freesync mode or on/off switch for those items.

There is currently no announcement for an actual full game release or intent that there is a team behind that type of project. So this seems to be moot argument, ala waste of time. Im ok with being told I am very ignorant, very very ignorant is where I draw the line 🤭 I've been playing CyberPunk 2077 on my laptop, thus far having a grand time running around doing gigs for Regina Jones. I am halfway through the heist now. I really need to get some more liquid metal, seems to have dried up my 1080 just sitting at 90c in game 😕

There is no basis for those claims and mountains of evidence to the contrary. If it was better than most tech demos it would be a demo. Not being able to see how it could be worse than the non playable tech demo just means you bought into the hype and marketing did its job. This isn't to disparage the game devs, I hope they achieve all that they hope to and in style but that doesn't mean consumer should ignore details either.

Does nGuard still throw a fit via GPU passthrough to VM scenario?

I dont mind keeping it here, and if we determine a good way for the thread to appear in both categories then we will pursue that. I do think the types of people that would actually see this thread would do so because its Linux and those that dont are on Windows. From a functional stand point it makes more sense for it to remain here, although I do also agree with wanting to promote Linux in at least to display that gaming is more than possible on its platform. Perhaps we can get some guides going with 0 to gaming on the platforms and distros you guys like to use, the monkey wrench being systems that have optimus only tend to be problematic in Linux, or at least that was my experience in the past. If the moderation team see fit to move the thread into another location then of course I will support that decision so long as the reasoning is provided. I know that Hiew is a heavy proponent of Linux and I've supported it as a spectator but most of my experiences all failed mostly due to custom nature of the laptops I was using. I would like to make Win10 my last windows iteration since it just seems to be more and more of an invasion on what little privacy I have left.

Essentially the same for me. Though perhaps there just isn't anything right now that would allow me to be fully immersed. For real vr to take place I imagine it would take a room dedicated to do exactly that, stationary track movement, winds, smells, temperature as well as weightless vr visors as well as different tools for item interactions. Gotta start somewhere I suppose.

I felt that would be the case, just didnt want to put my foot in my mouth right out of the gate lol

Currently switching servers + DNS propagation hasnt been making progress as it should be. We are aware of the undesired behavior, havent had much time to put toward this but I will coordinate with @Hiew and get some time on the books to look things over.

Oh that will be quite appreciated!

Its old fashioned but I found somethings are just easier to write down. I have 3 small notebooks, one for logins, one for cart reference / knowledge / mostly CEL codes and how to troubleshoot them / last is general. Which is where my profiles and such get written down. One thing not to forget with the prior Witcher 3 test, your max may not have improved to a noticeable level in gaming but the other to check is how your minimums might have changed? Almost more important in the eyes of some though I imagine it may be preference (like many other things out there!).

@Aaron44126 come and take a bow my friend, your reputation proceeds you!

So it turns out im not patient enough to sit on new hardware. Going to finally use the stock heatsink for the 2700x and see if I can put the NH-D15s on the 10850K, I believe it may have the mounting bracket already. If not I'll get it ordered.

When the lines between home and work are blurred, it tends to lead to less pleasant mental state at home. its an issue I would personally welcome, but due to the nature of my work. Is not possible, I never stopped commuting to work these past few years.

I arrived at similar conclusions, but started looking at 80mm double width radiators. I never entertained them in the past as an option but it seems every time I build something its always non-standard. I must be a closet eccentric and not know it. I am looking at these for now at least until I make a mock up and play with the idea more. Any meaningful differences between these? HPE-60 and UT60 https://www.aquatuning.us/water-cooling/radiators/radiators-active/80mm/23804/alphacool-nexxxos-ut60-full-copper-x-flow-80mm-quad-radiator?c=6566 https://www.aquatuning.us/water-cooling/radiators/radiators-active/80mm/27685/alphacool-nexxxos-hpe-60-full-copper-x-flow-80mm-quad-radiator?c=6566

The PSU is covered, I have several 750w and 1200w Server PSU's Just have to grab a breakout board for them. Works much better for concealing them underneath or above something 🙂 Bigger problem is finding this fan controller or one of equal standing. That and some other things, I'll try to refrain from taking this off topic, but for now anyone interested in giving some input can direct it to the linked thread below. Just saw your added links, will check them out now 🙂 Thanks for sharing!

Looks perfect, I may have to look for its successor or something akin to that as it appears to be out of stock everywhere on a quick search
