All about oc'ing..... If you haven't killed any of your hardware before then you're doing it wrong 😀

Yup, the speed of the forum is awful. Equal awful as this cooling design.... What a fantastic design. Why not cut of more of the cooling fins? The more you cut the more you save🤐 And where can you spot if the tiny trash melt with backplate lid closed before it's too late?

The cry baby is greedy....... NZXT issues statement on RTX 5090 AIO leak case, says it actually offered more than $4,300 The company added that it made “five separate compensation offers,” including “a brand-new ASUS ROG Astral RTX 5090 sourced at retail” and “a cash settlement at current market value.” NZXT made five separate compensation offers, including a brand-new ASUS ROG Astral RTX 5090 sourced at retail and a cash settlement at current market value. On February 27, NZXT accepted the customer’s own counter-offer of $4,378. He then added new conditions and did not sign. — NZXT This statement changes the picture around the case and suggests NZXT made a stronger effort to resolve it than the original Reddit post indicated. Based on the company’s account, it is not immediately clear why the customer rejected an offer at that level. -

I fix it for you 🙂 How much extra should the second 3Dv-cashe cost? And how much less should lower max boost clock cost vs 9950X3D ? 🤔 The Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 is a failure: 0.8% faster than the 9950X3D and blacklisted for critical media outlets to publish reviews -

Hmmm. AMD want pretty premium for the second 3D v-cashe. But $900 USD will be cheap compared to next gen Intel chips with bLLC (Big Last Level Cache). Can't remember have seen mainstream processors going above $900 USD the last two decades. If AMD had the balls and priced it at $999 it would be in HEDT territory. So close but no cigar Could be there is still some hope for people with less outcome... Intel plans to launch overclockable budget CPUs In overall application performance, the Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 looks like that KS-style chip, offering a minor 3.9% jump over the 9950X3D in multithreaded performance when taking common workloads into account. AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 review: More cache, more cash No Ryzen 9950X3D2 for TechPowerUp, Gamers Nexus, or ComputerBase We're not alone. As VideoCardz noted in their review roundup, Gamers Nexus reacted strongly after being denied a sample, ComputerBase, one of the top publications, was also denied, just like many others that you know for their deep, methodical testing—exactly the kind of reviews that dig into cache behavior, inter-CCD latency, power scaling, and per-game CCD parking quirks, which on a part like this are arguably the whole story. -

I have never been happy about the stupid cut out on the backplate to reduce thermal paste costs. Have mentioned this several times. Always a bigger risk damage the GPU with this stupid backplate design. Yep, it can happen anyway but the risk is still less with proper made full cover backplate and extra thermal paste above the chips also reduce the temp on the whole GPU and PCB.

Well derserved bro @Mr. Fox?

New tech for old Papusan bro @Prema🙂 Norway have a very good varranty (5 years whatever happens). The old robot failed and the tech service failed to fix it. All money back. Bought the brand new flagship for this year from Dreame and got a free handheld vacuum cleaner due the intro offer due this is brand new model. I paid $350 on top of the refund and got this two babies for the wife. Happy Wife... Happy life🤩 What I think... Modern vacuum robots won't last 5 years. This means I' will get new models without paying much extra years forwards. First paid for one, then you can just upgrade to next flagship model for free and at minimum costs above the refund when it fails. Look at it this way... No new technology is meant to last. At least not for as long as 5 years. I'm going to seize every opportunity to exercise my Norwegian consumer rights @Rage Set🙂 -

Not sure what you mean. From what I know only MSI offer XOC tools. But I haven't seen it in use outside of some fab clockers/elite. Edit. Also Galax offer own XOC tool. But only for own cards (5090D and 5090D2). -

You can get the xx.xx.xx.50 Asus XOC but the efficiency is pretty bad from the Asus XOC. This is one of the few options if you can't use the Matrix/Lightning vbios due fan problems/move some resistors to make it work on Asus. But running the GPU at 1000W without chiller/huge custom cooling for the GPU ain't what I would do. Benchmarks... Yes but not as dayly 24/7 usage. X-flash vbios versions for better performance this gen have been a mess. Even with the better stock Gigabyte vbios without custom cooling create a mess with the fans. Especially if you have Asus cards. Even retail Lightning can't use their own XOC firmware. So pretty screwed. See also....

Microsoft on track try improve monthly patch-updates. Fantastic😅 Microsoft confirms Windows 11 KB5083769, KB5082052 wrongly forcing BitLocker recovery Microsoft has confirmed that a new BitLocker recovery issue is affecting all supported versions of Windows 11, 10, and Server All the claims of better security down the drain. As expected. The better security was the main reason Microsoft abandoned older hardware from being allowed to upgrade to Windows 11. Suckers!! Unpatched Microsoft Defender flaw lets hackers gain admin access A security researcher has published a working exploit for a Microsoft Defender security flaw that affects Windows 10, 11, and Server.

Hmmm. Same model as this? "Only" $1688,42 USD (MSRP - no tax) here home. Can this be correct? $2,719.99 for the Samsung 9100 PRO is madness. Even worse if you need to pay some tax on top. Clearly seeing prices for tech go to hell in the US. Btw. Long time seen.Hope all is well bro John🙂 The summary of our one month vacation to come away from the bad weather (rain, wind snow and cold) here home. Complete disaster. We could have been home instead and saved a ton money. Rain record in the Canary Islands A new precipitation record was set for March in the Canary Islands this year, and it was much colder than normal.
