Checked if you have got an new microcode from Windows update?

Got answer back from @safedisk But not for all my questions. As you can see... New/Newer doesn't always mean better @Mr. Fox @Rage Set https://www.overclock.net/threads/official-asus-strix-maximus-z790-owners-thread.1800191/post-29317351

@Mr. Fox How is Asus quality? Or better say whats wrong with Asus? Does Asus sucks? Is this the normal you get from them all time? If you have read my older posts... Asus is one of the very few AIBs that offer halfmade vram colers that cover half of the vram chips. Also there you see cost saving on their best flagship models. And this also apply many older Asus models. Awful (engineering) decisions only with the intent of cost savings. Whats the point reuse the massive Asus 4090 cooler for their weaker 4080 cards when the Asus quality sucks? And the 4080 die is rotated vs 4090 so the big cold plate for the 4090 cooler barely fits the die. At least do a proper thermal paste job. Hmmm. Asus on it once again. And we can only advise Asus to tighten up its quality management a little more, because I had to give my RTX 4090 Strix a new paste because the old one had completely bled out. So it's anything but an isolated case, but rather an unnecessary cost-down on such expensive cards. Asus GeForce RTX 4080 TUF Gaming with serial error? Built-in hotspot ex works, material analysis and rescue This below is my comment/reply on OC.net We may see new bios (new microcode) and drivers faster than you think from Intel. This below doesn't look good. A good advice... Maybe try out with different microcodes. Worth test it if you have problems. @safedisk any comments on this? Thanks. In response to ZDNet Korea's inquiry about whether Intel was aware of the problem, Intel responded, "Intel is aware of problems that occur when executing certain tasks on 13th and 14th generation core processors for desktop PCs, and is analyzing them with major affiliates."

Hmmm. This is not big cards. Not very heavy or very long cards. I never use sag-bracket on my older but still big cards when I run them. I only use support stick for the 4090. Maybe some don't bother screw the cards bracket to the I/O slots. They are more like dangling in the boards Pcie slot. Thats worse of a sin🙂

Here's the latest updated list of apps you should install😀 From today 7th April 2024 German blog Deskmodder has dug into the appraiser.sdb file in build 26100 and discovered that Microsoft expanded it with new programs that could theoretically block you from getting to Windows 11 version 24H2. The list includes apps like StartAllBack and ExplorerPatcher, which Microsoft recently blocked on 24H2 builds. Here are the apps that could block you from upgrading to Windows 11 version 24H2 A closer look into the system files in Windows 11 version 24H2 (build 26100) revealed a list of apps that could theoretically block your system from getting to the upcoming update.

It may change if he used an more power hungry Cpu as 14900K/KS in the test.

LOOL. Yup, we are come to April 7. Not the fools day. Anyway... Known that RGB can screw up your memory sticks firmware. Let the (gamer) kids have more of the bling bling. They got what they wanted🤮🤮🤮 Regardless whats the problem (dust) or real... The (a)RGB race need to be stopped. Gamers report memory RGB lights are damaging GPU backplates A bling-bling UV burn? LOOOL Todays HW/Software/Design engineers and gamer kids.... Edit. We can continue talk about disgusting. I'm not keen jump on any $5000 USD e-waste. Nope. Not in Hell.

Microsoft confirms caching issues in Windows 10 KB5034203 and newer updates Microsoft has updated the official Windows documentation with details about a newly discovered bug in the recent Windows 10 updates. According to the company, some Windows 10 devices within enterprise networks might experience problems with using Microsoft Connected Cache nodes, resulting in an increase in download traffic from the public internet

Microsoft blocks even more customization apps in Windows 11 version 24H2 StartAllBack, a popular tool for tweaking the taskbar and Start menu in Windows 11, was among the first to fail on 24H2. Sadly, it is not the only one. ExplorerPatcher also no longer works in Windows 11 24H2. Microsoft quietly installing KB5035942 Moment 5 features to your Windows 11 23H2 PC Microsoft is currently working on the next major Windows 11 feature update, version 24H2. According to reports, the update should be available to the public around the usual expected time, i.e., September or October 2024. The reports also add that Release to Manufacturers (RTM) is very close, and as such, the recent Insider build 26100 is from the RTM branch. Users have found some breaking bugs in it that were not documented by Microsoft in the build's release notes.

Of course. Because they wanted the same as Apple. A big Store, as well sell own smartphones and mini-books. At least Apple don't make a single OS for their phones, tablet and desktops. Microsoft wanted a single uni-sex OS (all in one). That's disgusting. And Windows never recovered as a real desktop OS from their failure with their trash phones. In short put the blame on Apple.... They triggered Microsoft, LOOL

Quite easy to understand.... Intel binned for the P-core 6.2 GHz boost target. Same was it when they binned (6.0 GHz) for the 14900K. This way (all boys and girls) could see the +6.0GHz target in brief moments. Just pump in more voltage so all can enjoy "words fastest" Cpu. Same as their first gen i9 mobile scam with i9-8950HK with "Thermal Velocity Boost" which allows one core to boost to 4.8 GHz (+200 MHz) as long as the CPU temperature was below 50°C. Big clocks for burst loads. Can't do that with E-cores. So why should they bother? Even with trash E-cores in the KS, they all could get the 100MHz bump over vanilla 14900K. So Intel "forgot" to bin the whole chips. Edit.

LoL. Microsoft still just don't get it. Are Redmond HQ filled with stupids? Of course most people prefer to avoid the new and messed up.

You forgot Apple😵 One thing for sure.... I would prefer my dog follow me anyday over this stupidity. But it's Apple. Their next gen HW will sell. And for massive premium. Apple is reportedly working on a little robot that can follow you around your home https://www.tweaktown.com/news/97332/apple-is-reportedly-working-on-little-robot-that-can-follow-you-around-your-home/index.html

EK Water Blocks Introduces NGP Thermal Paste PRESS RELEASE Today, 17:55 EK, the leading computer cooling-solutions provider, proudly announces the launch of the EK-Loop Thermal Paste NGP (5 g), a thermal interface material meticulously engineered for enthusiasts seeking efficient thermal transfer between high-end components and their cooler of choice. The EK-Loop Thermal Paste NGP utilizes nano-grade particles, ensuring effective heat transfer between CPUs, GPUs, and other chipsets and their respective cooling mechanisms, such as water blocks and heatsinks. The cornerstone of the EK-Loop Thermal Paste NGP is its Nano Grade Particles (NGP) technology, which ensures very low thermal impedance and excellent applicability. These nano-grade particles are engineered to form an ultra-thin layer between the heat source and the cooler, promoting effective heat dissipation. The low thermal impedance is important as it allows the paste to effectively transfer heat away from critical components like CPUs and GPUs, minimizing the risk of overheating and supporting overall system performance.

See my older post here. The ASUS ROG Strix Arion SSD Enclosure trash from Asus. A known brand doesn't mean you get fantastic. The whole box died and dragged with the ssd in the death. Lucky for him.... It was an old re-used ssd for game library Edit @electrosoft Thanks for the kind words. Interesting videos......

You bought M.2 ssd's so back they go. If it was with an enclosure I would keept them for cut up and see🙂

Yes, sure that. But I would still buy ssd's that I need to be sure works. Cheap can it be but it need to work as intended. And even more important in an expensive place to live as here home. A know brand is better than a brand I don't know of. The price difference isn't very huge between them. I rather pay 10% extra for something I know work reliable. And I re-use ssds for backups so (going for bigger ssds I reuse the smaller ones).

Yup. Here you was spot on. Same as me below. But I expect quite a few people never think in the same way. And as I have mentioned before... Buy needed ssds now if you find them at a good price. Edit. https://www.techspot.com/news/102473-ssd-price-hike-hits-buyers-hard-double-digit.html

The users have already paid Google the ultimate price with thier valuable privacy/data, now you may have to pay a second time to get out the info they already grabbed from you last time or now in real time.

You Might Have to Pay to Use Google Search in the Near Future https://wccftech.com/you-might-have-to-pay-to-use-google-search-in-the-near-future/ Google Search could go paid, but only if you want to use AI-powered features The report talks about how sources familiar with Google's plans talk about how there will be advanced AI-powered search features, and they will become part of the company's current subscription services like Gemini Advanced and Google One. The report also indicates that the premium tier of Search will have ads, and if you want to continue using the traditional Search, that is going to be free for everyone. Nice. Continue pay with your privacy on top get forced unwanted ads and the icing on the cake have to pay to search info they already have stolen from you. This is criminal.
