Yup. Windows 11 is a disgusting mess.

Jup, stupid heatsink design by stupid engineers. Just let the vram be naked and let the fans flow air over them. I could use K5 Pro thermal putty as I use for the other older cards. But it won't help much due idiot design. As you can see from the links... Not only Asus make awful cooling design. Also Msi have hired idiots for their thermal design solutions. Edit. Here you can see Evga created proper cooling for the vram. Why Asus and Msi hate spend needed money on the cooling is baffling//mind boggling. Greedy paired with stupidity is a dangerous combination.

As already mentioned... You already own the last true laptop (DTR) worth to buy. New and more modern laptops with newest hardware is limited in all ways. Cpu and GPU soldered on the MB... Almost no storage slots. Mostly max 2x m.2 slots. And most of the new laptops have only two ram slots if not one or both of the memory are soldered to the MB. But they are damn thin, slim and cute, have the newest panels and come with small fancy shaped PSUs that can offer the 240W power mostly all laptops are capped with. DTR laptops is dead. Want DTR then you have to buy a desktop (prebuilt or build by yourself). None of the new and modern laptops can be branded as DTR. I would rather say they all are Apple copy-cats. So no thanks.

Here is more pictures for the pict jockey @electrosoft😀 Say hello to the MSI GeForce GTX 960 GAMING 100ME (Limited Edition) for my GPU collection. Fancy Green and I mean it have Samsung vram. I paid 200,- or $18.29 USD for this limited beauty so not a huge loss if it fails. And the card have still the void sticker on one of the screws so it probably need a re-paste. The nice part, this card come with a backplate opposite to the more vanilla (MSI) GTX 960 cards. Fantastic that MSI could afford that. Here's the thing... I always try go the cheapo route if I can. No in Hell I would pay $150 USD as this stupid want for his 8 years old green goblin Edition on ebay. So no difference than with newer cards. No in hell I would paid I cent above $700 for Nvidia's $1199 4080 Scam. Edit. Yup, never re-pasted. Same old dryed out stamp as most of the OEM prefer to use. And no thermal pads for the vram. Can't be cheaper doing it this way....

Yup. Full focus on quality and reliability will always pay of, LOOL @Mr. Fox+++ Microsoft confirms Windows 10 and 11 activation issues, says it is investigating techspot.com Facepalm: Microsoft is investigating a new activation issue that is affecting many Windows 10 and 11 PCs. The problem seems to have cropped up last month after the company pushed out an update to plug a loophole that allowed Windows 7,8, and 8.1 users to upgrade to Windows 10 and 11 for free. However, the update is reportedly causing issues for some people who say they used the method to legitimately move to Windows 10 or 11 from an older version of the OS. According to aggrieved users, the problem affects Windows 10/11 installations that were legally activated using Windows 7/8 product keys as part of a free upgrade offer from Microsoft. However, following last month's update some of those installations are reportedly getting deactivated if any hardware component in the PC is changed or the BIOS is updated. See also.... Microsoft is screaming for attention In the last few days, Microsoft has drawn the ire of many Windows users several times. For example, some users temporarily had to give a reason if they wanted to close the OneDrive app on Windows. After the media attention that this brought, the company backed down and stopped the feedback dialogue again. The new Outlook's silent synchronization of access data for email accounts with the Microsoft cloud was also recently met with little approval.

Apple-Scented Thermal Paste Launches in Japan tomshardware.com A new limited edition apple-scented thermal paste was launched in Japan today. A collaborative effort between M1N1ing and Clock Work Tea Party, the Extreme Muglis 4G Apple Edition EG4GAP paste is formulated for room-temperature overclocking antics. No, this isn’t designed for Apple's Mac computers, it just reportedly smells like an Apple and comes in green. Hmmm, can this thermal paste works well with Apples sibling... The Alienware models?

Run and buy😂 I'm sure many will try pick up some of the cheaper adapters than what Cablemod can offer Remember expensive doensn't always mean better, HaHa Fire Sale? Amazon Flooded With Dodgy 16-Pin GPU Power Adapters This one looks fantastic.... 🤢

AMD CacheWarp Vulnerability Afflicts Previous Gen EPYC Server CPUs, Patch Issued tomshardware.com

It seems Google/Alphabet finally have learned the average Joe that there is good solutions to reduce ads on the internet (use adblockers). Google's hard work to get rid of ad-blockers on YouTube will clearly backfire on them. Stupid is the new norm @Mr. Fox++++ And I hope EU look into this....

Who can they blame? On the consumers or themselves? Todays word has to be Greed. AMD know this was fake numbers. But they needed the first months on top to try sell their cards.... I wonder how bad the sales of AMD cards have been if Bethesda wasn't paid by AMD to screw nvidia and Intel.

Yup. See... No PCIE Gen5 M.2 Slot is needed. This means the stupids at Asus implemented an useless feature for their only OC bords. Who want castrate some of the PCIe lines for their graphics cards for a feature you almost never will use on gaming and OC boards? Because Intel don't force you to do this stupidity. Shame on you... Asus. @Mr. Fox Whats wrong with some of todays engineers? Maybe I will buy a 4080 when the prices drop to $50-80 USD. But I will most likely never spend my money on a used AMD card. Has to be damn cheap. More like $30-40 bucks 🙂 Edit. If I was't banned from Cablemod reddit I would say he was a liar.... Sad that they prefer ban everyone that tell the truth.

Anyone that have wondered why Intel quietly fused of AVX-512 functionality for their 12th gen Alder Lake, then 13th and 14th gen Intel mainstream processors? Most likely because that was the easiest fix. CPU VULNERABILITY Intel is said to have known about Downfall as early as 2018 Plaintiffs accuse Intel of having known about security problems five years ago, which ultimately led to Downfall. New Intel Downfall AVX2/AVX-512 Vulnerability & Its Huge...... Lawsuit Claims Intel Sold Billions of AVX-Enabled CPUs Knowing of Downfall Vulnerability A new class action suit alleges Intel sold billions of CPUs which it knew would be susceptible to an AVX side-channel attack, and complains the patch saps performance too much. End results.... An older 12th gen Intel Cpu with disabled baby-cores but with AVX-512 functionality activated can crush an 13/14th gen running full oc'd speed with all 24 cores. Isn't that disgusting? Top ranked 8 cores Cpu - Y-Cruncher Pi-1B https://hwbot.org/submission/5396871_sergmann_y_cruncher___pi_1b_core_i9_12900k_(8p)_12sec_945ms Fastest 24 core Intel with fused of AVX-512 https://hwbot.org/submission/5125390_luumi_y_cruncher___pi_1b_core_i9_13900k_13sec_938ms Almost 1 second faster in Y-cruncher Pi-1B with 16 less cores. And with AVX-512 enabled the cpu needed 600MHz lower clock speed. Again... That's disgusting. More cores but worse bench results. What a deal. I realy hate how Intel deal with their valuable customers. It should be up to the end-user if he prefer less secure system (if they prefer enable AVX-512 features in firmware). This Sunday's word for today has to be.....

Microsoft reflects on 20 years of Windows Patch Tuesday Bill Gates did it, and now AI will keep patching Windows for 20 more years...

LOOOL 😁😂😁 Maybe you all can find such a nice deal. Sub $1 for a 12VHPWR angled adapter is a steal. "Any reason there were so many? Did they get recalled or something?"

When those replace their systems they will jump on Windows 12. I can't imagine that Microsoft will extend support for both Win 10 and 11. But they will do for older Win 10 due the nature of the HW.

The sad truth... Microsoft want those (users) idiots. Hence we see so much unwanted changes with every new Windows version. Same also in tech industri.... All OEMs try to copy-cat Applebooks. The trend roll faster and faster for each new year. I'm happy I'm not 20 years anymore. See this sinking ship (Windows as OS) is awful to see. See bolded text.

Hmmm. Only 20-25 4090 card each week for repair. That will be up to 100 cards each months only for NorthridgeFix. Cablemod reps said there is only a few burned cards du their disaster adapters... Hmmm _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Will this affect Nvidia? Or is the need much bigger than what Nvidia, Intel and soon AMD can offer? Intel and Gaudi 2: soon the end of NVIDIA's monopoly in AI? In short, all these benchmarks are very encouraging for Intel. It remains to be seen what the price of such a solution is. As a reminder, an NVIDIA H100 costs at least $30,000, or even more, with Amazon listing it at $43,989. In any case, Intel wants to position itself as a competitive performance/price ratio in the sector!

KLEVV CRAS V RGB DDR5-8000 32GB Dual-Channel Memory Kit Review (comes with proper RGB light disaster). Yes, why buy this 32GB kit when you can get 48GB for a similar price? But what do I know... Could be that some buyers are much more tempted by this ram kit RGB color blends over anything else. Useless often beat common sense. But the whole world is filled with all sorts of weirdos so I'm sure there is a market for this junk as well😖 Read more: https://www.tweaktown.com/reviews/10578/klevv-cras-rgb-ddr5-8000-32gb-dual-channel-memory-kit/index.html
