The most fun I have seen today. AMD Zen5 chips is now rebranded to BulldoZen5. Yup, that one made my day😁 Have a nice weekend. Nice to see you back bro @Etern4l. Hope all is well. If you don't mind loosing warranty then use liquid metal on your stock IHS. Better for longeivity on LM. See also bro Fox post. The Rockit IHS (or any good quality custom IHS with slight higher Z-hight) was good for laptops with sloppy heat sink pressure and uneven quality for the ILM in LGA laptops. For desktops... Not so much.

Finally, the juicy fruits poppin up from Microsoft. As they now have started up again new features for older Win 10. Isn't that a good thing bro @Mr. Fox?🤢 Why not just let us have the old OS without new trashy Win 11 features?

I'm not so sure bro @Mr. Fox. Because everything they touch will turn into problems. Just lovely. More bugs have popped up with this new Win11 update. This is an reminder of never pach on the patch day and rather wait at least 2-4 weeks before you try download and install so called "fixes patches" from Microsoft. Latest Windows 11 update cripples PCs. Here's what to do if you're affected This cumulative update for Windows 11 can slow down PCs so badly that they become unusable.

Just lovely. The usual. More bugs have popped up with this new CU update. Latest Windows 11 update cripples PCs. Here's what to do if you're affected

Hmm. Extra 8 pin have been already on a few boards from both AMD and Intel (Z690 Apex had 6-pin and the Z790 Apex got 8-pin). I don't see Nvidia will push this as requirements for new GPUs. Remember all the older boardsout there that will be paired with 5090, and 95% of them all don't have it. And You can't feed more power to the GPU from the PCIe Gen5 slot. More likely they will make ready for next gen less power hungry AI cards not meant for gaming. Pair two of them and you are good to go (not for gaming). Isn't that disgusting? Also with all the modern RGB bling people want nowadays, charging of the kids tech gears and the need for fan headers with higher AMP rating, the boards need more 12v ompha than you'll get out from the old fashion 24-pin MB connector.

Check out WPD above and see what the software find of Enabled/Disabled services or apps. As well check same settings in O&O shutup. Both programs need same settings applied to offer correct settings. I would ask in Sordum for some help/guidelines. I would also try free AV software to override what Windows try to do so it can take over the control.

Check out Sordum. Maybe you can still use the Defender Control tool v2.1. Also look in the comments section for that tool. Guides in there. As well try free AV software and then white list needed apps/software. Can't remember what Os and build you use. Also check out... *WPD v1.5 RC1 [WPD is a portable app to manage your Windows 10 privacy and firewall settings, uninstall Windows apps, and decide what apps can access your information]. See what it finds enabled/Disabled.

What I meant. If wrong settings is applied in regedit then change the value to the correct one. Maybe you have tried it before. And regarding the added microcode in Windows,... Can be deleted in Windows so only the MC in bios will be used.

Z790 APEX ENCORE/ Z790 APEX TEST BIOS 9933 For XOC 1. need ln2 mode enabled and mode2 if use gear 4 dont use mode 2 (dont use ambient temp OC, only use to LN2 OC) 2. can switch 11F ucode in bios https://rog-forum.asus.com/t5/intel-700-600-series/raptorlake-resources/m-p/1035782/highlight/true#M24593 https://community.hwbot.org/topic/220910-asus-rog-maximus-apex-z790-apex-15/?do=findComment&comment=673420

Microcode 0x129. Intel's Raptor Lake refresh has to stay after school - Conclusion https://www.hardwareluxx.de/index.php/artikel/hardware/prozessoren/64213-microcode-0x129-raptor-lake-refresh-muss-nachsitzen.html?start=9

At least check out... You can check whether Windows Security Center is enabled in the Registry Editor.

Here's the newest X3D chips. And it's from AMD. Maybe he should have used an 13th/14th gen Intel chips, LOOL

I expect loads of people undervolt as mad. On the edge of stability and you'll get weird problems in some tasks/games. And then they will blame Intel or and the MB manufacturers for their self introduced problems. I doub't we will see 300K branding. That will be their next SKU line-up. Maybe an 295K as the KS. Higher clocks but with still same amount cores/threads.

This sum up today's new modern tech. Create disasters to be able to maximice profits. We need bigger chips and with same sorts of cores. And more cores if needed for more performance. Not this modern hybrid or glued togeter tiles mess. @Prema Here's is the latest Intel ME Firmware Update v16.1.32.2473. Can you see what this brings? Probably new security fixes as usual. Or a re-brand. Thanks

I really like good news @Mr. Fox🙂 Google Faces A Revived Class Action Lawsuit For Accessing User Information Without Consent

Yup. And this apply also for the OS. An update made to fix a vulnerability broke dual-boot Windows-Linux PCs neowin.com · 7 hours ago A Windows Patch Tuesday update that was supposed to fix a vulnerability has caused a number of dual-boot Windows-Linus PCs to no longer boot up in Linux. Microsoft has yet to fix this problem.

Intel haven't many other choices. The sales in Korea has sinked as a stone in the ocean and more of this news you see below will increase the damage further. And all the new bugged beta bios from the mb manufacturers don't help on the situation.

See below. File contain innstaller and uninstaller from our old good friend @Prema But no need for latest Intel ME Firmware Update v16.1.32.2418. Also latest MEI driver if this is something you want for the ME firmware.

So even with the MC 0x129 with the new Asus XOC beta bios you got back the SA bug.... Hmmmm. Your reply. I tested the ASUS XOC BIOS that @safedisk posted (v9933) and the SA bug returned to that CPU even with 0x129 MC. What a disgusting soap opera this has become with the different motherboard manufacturers. 1.6V when loading up the OS with the new so called fixed bios (MC 0x129). Could be a detective board but who knows. .

Not sure if Sergmann have been damn lucky with all his chips with the Gigabyte board.... Not sure how many processors he have tested. But none with the SA bug https://community.hwbot.org/topic/210084-gigabyte-z690-tachyon/?do=findComment&comment=673591

New is always better bro @ryan

Yup. New times and nvidia will release new cards every year forwards. But I expect a new release then the next year somewhat re-hashed gaming cards. Milk while you can. The old fashion Intel way. See also.... The well written letter from Jensen😁 To meet demand we in nvidia have found out that we will only supply more GDDR6X chips for the custom made 4090(D) graphics cards made from 3090Ti PCB with wopping 48GB vram for China (also the more expensive SKUs will continue have GDDR6X). But You sucky gamerboy loosers buying cheapo 4070 need to accept cheaper oc'd GDDR6. Aka you will miss out on vram overclocking. Because we in Nvidia have determed to steal all the OC headroom for mentioned slow 18 Gbps vram. So you'll get 2 Gbps extra for "free" from us in Nvidia. Hence the "fake" 20 Gbps vram moniker. They are already oc'd so don't bother try eak out more performance. Mvh Jensen NVIDIA introduces GeForce RTX 4070 with GDDR6 memory, offering ‘similar’ performance to GDDR6X version GeForce RTX 4070 With GDDR6 To improve supply and availability to meet strong demand, we’re introducing the GeForce RTX 4070 with extra fast GDDR6 memory. All of the other specs remain the same. It offers similar performance in games and applications. Yup, extra fast GDDR6 memory just means what it is.... Overclocked vram out from the factory. Nice. Not everyday you get already oc'd hardware with nothing left in the tank. Because average gamer boys don't need the more expensive memory chips for their cheapo cards... NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090D with 48GB and RTX 4080 with 32GB vram. That's for the rich + AI. Not for sucky loosers try saving money.

Not everyone that have an Y-cruncher/OCCT profile ready for the new game😁 Despite Intel patch, Black Myth: Wukong devs warn about Core 13th and 14th Gen CPU crashing A nice mix with Intel and AMD's crashing in here...https://steamcommunity.com/app/2358720/discussions/0/6149189044492760562/?ctp=3

If you keep it yet another 1 or two years maybe you'll see 2-3 FPS in newest hard taxing games😎 They all want that you buy the newest flagship hardware available nowadays. Then start render it useless within next 2-3 years. All they want is all your hard earned money. Microsoft blocks trick that lets you install Windows 11 on older PCs As usual no love for Gigabyte. 4090 or 4080 doesn't matter. I expect the same feelings for all their products. And the future tech coming closer and closer... Mobile computing tech in desktops is exactly what the computer users need. Maximum power efficiency for your homebuild desktop computer. Nice.
