*Official Benchmark Thread* - Post it here or it didn't happen :D
Papusan replied to Mr. Fox's topic in Desktop Hardware
Made for throwaway. Maybe Nvidia and their AIC partners should send with spare 12VHPWR cable adapters so the cards can survive the warranty periode? Better say, let the consumers have new 12VHPWR adapters each 8 months of usage. Lets say they all could ship the cards with 3 pieces of the hated tiny adapters in the package? Btw. The better and more costly PSU's often have two 12V-2*6 connectors due AI/creators... There you have it. You have one spare cable all time for your precious GPU. Useful even if you don't run 5000 series cards in pair for AI tasks. Aka you have always an backup if you prefer the tiny trash on both ends. Two RTX 40 series cards left us this week, an RTX 4090 and an RTX 4080: soldered plastic connectors, graphics cards on the verge of warranty expiration. They're failing faster and faster. Time waits for no one; the 12VHPWR and 12V-2x6 graphics cards should be recalled now, while there's still time, before they continue to silently burn out one after another. As you can see... The engineers at nvidia is fantastic. Same pattern here as with the tiny trash... Amazing engineering skills. Fragile as hell. -

Nope. Not sure what happened. Fixed now 🙂 -

Nice. The new Intel flagship got one boost bin upgrade of 100 MHz for TVB. But no change in all core boost clocks(Turbo boost max). Everything else is almost exactly the same. What a fantastic upgrade. Run and buy. Why bother put resources on an refresh? Plus models? LOL Intel Core Ultra 290K, 270K and 250K Plus spec leak: “Arrow Lake Refresh” with higher clocks, more cores and faster memory support Core Ultra 200K Plus (overview). Core Ultra 9 285K➡️ 290K Plus: + 100 MHz P-Core (Max) Core Ultra 7 265K➡️ 270K Plus: + 4 E-Cores Core Ultra 5 245K➡️ 250K Plus: + 100 MHz P-Core (Max), + 4 E-Cores -
You won't find anything that is exciting/good with Microsoft and their products. Top Microsoft exec's boast about Windows 'evolving into an agentic OS' provokes furious backlash over AI Davuluri’s enthusiasm regarding the evolution of Windows faced overwhelmingly negative criticism. If we had to condense the replies into a single, representative, super-reply, it would probably read something like this: ‘No one wants this; we are fed up with AI everything; Windows needs tuning for performance; and Linux is looking good.’ Microsoft says Windows is becoming an agentic OS, but users simply hate the idea Microsoft axes popular free Windows 11/10 KMS activation hack that worked without internet Microsoft has successfully managed to kill a popular free offline way to illegally activate Windows 11 and 10.

Be aware of possible ticking bomb as decreased performance. Being the guinea pig is never a good idea. Intel stomps down 30 bugs including privilege escalation vulnerabilities Intel releases new microcode with "hidden" security patches to fix 30 vulnerabilities in nearly 200 CPUs: issues with iGPU, Thread Director, Ethernet, WiFi, and more -

Hmmm. More than the GUI can be screwed up. The shell is only a minor part of the OS. And new bug fixes will just introduce new ones.

Some pc users stupids even think Microsoft have changed course and will provide better performance with the latest and greatest. Why do they need make a new OS build to fix bugs? Windows 11 26H1 Focuses on New Silicon Support, Not New Features Microsoft has released a new Windows 11 26H1 preview build for Windows Insiders, named Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 28000. Contrary to expectations of significant UI and functionality changes, the upcoming Windows 26H1 update is primarily focused on supporting the latest silicon, likely from Qualcomm and NVIDIA. According to Microsoft on its Windows Blog, "26H1 is not a feature update for version 25H2 and only includes platform changes to support specific silicon. There is no action required from customers." This means that future 26H1 users will receive minor OS improvements and general bug fixes, with no major changes to the system's core.

The big Norwegian party musician... Åge Aleksandersen paired with one of Svedens biggest song stars ever (Björn Afzelius). https://lyricstranslate.com/en/rosalita-rosalita.html Intro in Norwegian (Trøndish, my Norwegian dialect🙂). 0:29 Swedish. I:16 Sami, the norwegian indigenous language. What is the hardest language of those 3 to understand?😀 Björn Afzelius https://lyricstranslate.com/en/tusen-bitar-thousand-pieces.html

Isn't it nice? Microsoft tune next gen Windows for their trashware. Windows go long way to stop being an unified OS for everyone. @Mr. Fox You may want next gen Microsoft hardware? A must if you want the best from Microsoft🤢 Windows 11 26H1 confirmed, but it’s not for all. Only Nvidia Arm-based N1X, Snapdragon... Windows on Arm looks ready for gaming, as Fortnite finally runs

Still more than enough 5090's available here home. Cheapest one is GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 5090 WindForce 3 OC at $1988,15 MSRP (without tax). So right below the famous 5090FE MSRP. New rumors. 5000 series Super cards just delayed. Now planned to launch in 26Q3 NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 SUPER reportedly slips to Q3 2026, RTX 5060 Ti 16GB in short supply soon -

You'll need newer pc chassis as well to fit the BTF motherboard. But You may fix that with a dremel and some paint but Asus main point is that you should buy whole new hardware only for that extra power connector. Greedy....... -

Only $4733,03 USD incl tax. Not bad Asus. Why not let the retail break $5000 ? Or is it only for the Gold Edition cards? Don't forget punch the "Notify Me" button. You may have a chance to support Asus with more of your hard earned money. https://videocardz.com/newz/asus-rog-matrix-platinum-rtx-5090-slips-to-late-november-at-e4099 -

Yup, I expected you wouldn't stand in line… Neither would I. -
I expected this would come much faster. But later is better than never. Isn't it @Mr. Fox?😎 People are starting to lose interest in "smart homes," preferring traditional homes without technology or AI. Although science fiction has shown us futuristic houses fully automated and with working androids, we are still quite far from that.

Yup, Microsoft really care about security... Hence they try force you over on the more secure Windows 11. How stupid is that, LOL This 8-year-old Windows security flaw is still being exploited by hackers A security vulnerability in Windows has been there since 2017, but Microsoft refuses to patch it. Microsoft wrongly tells supported Windows 10 PCs they’re out of support, nudges Windows 11

+95% of all posted smoky power connectors is dual colored. Probably used cheapo nylon/plastic. When will they also start making low quality 12V-2*6 connectors with red tip? Third Sapphire RX 9070 XT NITRO+ with blue-tipped 12V-2×6 adapter shows burn damage -

Then see if you can find an open box with 5080 for around $800-825. Not a penny above. Or even better like $750-775. That is closer to what it's worth. -

Only God knows how many cards being RMA due the fragile 12VHPWR connector/cable. I expect what we see from different forums is just the tip of the iceberg. And not all post on reddit either as you can see. And neither do you need to have 5090 to melt the tiny trash They all sucks. Doesn't matter if its Nvidia tech or from AMD's gaming team What did MSI do right with its cable management design?
