10% off on both GoG & Steam ($54). Digital Deluxe DLC is also 10% off ($9). First time I've seen any discount. Edit: GoG says "Offer ends on: 03/01/2024". Maybe it's a price drop?

My Z690 board lost its magic smoke (another story) and I put my 13600K into a Z790 board and made sure the board had HDMI before I bought it. This system connects to a TV & receiver. I get no VRR going through the receiver, so I run the video card's HDMI to the TV and use a DP to HDMI adapter...

I picked up my Vive Pro 2 after a couple weeks of neglect and the left eye display is messed up. Difficult to describe - kind of a pixel rainbow grid over the whole image. It's like I can see the electronic layout behind the pixels. Did multiple system restarts, replugged all cables, etc. I...

No, this is not an ad for Amazon or Chase. I've had the Amazon Cash Back card for a while, that gives you 5% back when used on Amazon. It's always shown up as Amazon credit. I was poking around my account on Chase today and found that you can actually deposit your cash back balance into your...

My router, placed on the ground floor of the house, is a Netgear XR1000. The exterior brick wall is about 20 feet away. On the other side of the wall is an enclosed porch where signal is weakened and cuts out. What's the better way to strengthen signal - run Cat 6 and connect an extender (I...

I've got a PC with a 6800 XT (1 HDMI 2.1, 3 DP 1.4a) to connect to my TV/receiver. TV is a C1 OLED that can do 4K 120 Hz Freesync. The receiver won't pass through any video over 4K 60 Hz and no VRR. So, I need separate connections to the TV and receiver. I got a DP to HDMI cable and it will...

After about a year of waiting for the base stations to be in stock, I finally ordered 2 of those plus controllers from Valve, and a Vive Pro 2 headset. Of course I'm getting Alyx, and picked up Croteams VR bundle a while back in anticipation. My placement options are my cramped computer room...

Well, that's so much better! Dipshits. Edit: Just to be clear...

This has been a constant pain in the ass with Windows 10 on every system. Out of 8 computers on the network, a Win10 system will only connect to 1 or 2 in Explorer to access network shares. Remote Desktop Connection will connect, but Explorer will not. WTF?

https://www.techspot.com/news/89173-amd-admits-zen-3-cpus-vulnerable-new-spectre.html Dammit, AMD. Not likely to affect most users, and a fix is already available, but still, dammit.

I pulled out some old Pascal cards and connected them to a spare system to mine Eth. I've been using Claymore version 15. With 1070s and a 1060, the cards start where they should be in hashrate, then drop after a few minutes. The 1070s drop from about 26MH/s to 10-12, and the 1060 drops from...

https://www.techspot.com/news/88023-display-panel-shortages-could-lead-price-hikes-low.html I'm glad I just bought my CX48.

My "case" is a Lian Li DK05 desk. It has space for 2 ATX systems and 3x360mm radiators plus 1x480mm radiator. I did have 2 systems, each with a custom loop using 2 radiators each. I recently did an X570 build to replace the X470 and removed the trusty X58 system on the other side, with it's...

Epox EP-6VBA Pentium II 300 SL2W8 ATI 9800 Pro Cleaned out one of the stalls we were using for random crap storage. Might find out if it still works, but I'll have to find an ATA hard drive and some SDRAM.

https://www.techpowerup.com/273490/amd-navi-21-xt-seemingly-confirmed-to-run-at-2-3-2-4-ghz-clock-250-w And supposedly there is an XTX version with higher performance. With the 5700XT clocking around 2GHz, that's a 20% clock increase on top of the doubled compute units.

https://www.thefpsreview.com/2020/07/09/nvidia-announces-death-stranding-geforce-rtx-bundle/ Would that make it the most advanced, RTX enabled walking simulator? Did Death Stranding come close to living up to the hype?

https://www.newegg.com/asus-prime-x570-p/p/N82E16813119199?Item=N82E16813119199 Pretty bare bones board, but lowest price I've seen for X570. Should be able to OC a 3950X with "mild" airflow on the VRM. OOS again.

https://www.techpowerup.com/268650/amd-confirms-vermeer-zen-3-not-delayed-to-launch-in-2020 Apparently the rumor of a delay until 2021 was unfounded. I've been trying to wait for Zen3 to upgrade my 2700X.

...for my EVGA X58 SLI motherboard. She wasn't feeling well last week, and locked up. I restarted and she came back, but then locked up a couple days later. This time a restart only resulted in the POST code display reading "FF", the fans spinning, but no startup. A different power supply...

I got a vehicle that already has a decent head unit, so I kept it and upgraded amps and speakers. The problem with the head unit is it only recognizes 255 folders on a USB stick. The USB stick I use for my music has 800+ folders; one for each artist, then inside that one for each album by that...

Brief recap of prior post: I've been trying to find an upgrade for my triple 30" 2560x1600 monitor setup for months. What I really want won't exist for several years (if ever), but I think I found an acceptable compromise in a 38" LG ultrawide with 3840x1600 resolution. I bought the 38BC99-W...

The 38CB99-W appears to be the "business" model of the 38UC99-W. Identical specs and a 3 year warranty on the CB vs 1 year on the UC. These also appear to be the same as the newer 38WK95C-W (38BK95C-W for "business"), with the exception that the newer model has HDR. All of the LG 38"...

I've set my FSB to 103.3 to get the 2700X to boost up to 4490 MHz and get my 3200 CAS 14 DDR4 to 3300 MHz. The RAM got a bump to 1.4V, but the CPU voltage is left on Auto. The board is an X470 Aorus Ultra Gaming and the RAM is Team Dark Pro (B die). Cooling is a custom loop with the GPU and...

I have 3 PNY 1070 cards. UPS ground shipping to contiguous 48 is included. Payment accepted via Paypal. Ships upon receipt of payment. Shipping from 80917. PNY GTX 1070: $650 ea

I went with Phobya fittings when I was buyiing parts for 2 loops because I needed a lot of fittings and they were cheaper than the others available. I got the first loop assembled, and for the second loop I incorporated some Koolance QD3s. Working with the Phobya fittings sucked - it takes a...

I got my custom loop for my 6700K/1080 Ti assembled today. On air, the 1080 Ti was getting around 35.5 MH/s on Eth with Claymore. With water, it's reading 100 MH/s. At stock speed it was reading 86 MH/s. I don't believe it, but why would it be reporting those speeds?

https://hardforum.com/attachments/adrenalin-jpg.47310/ I asked on the AMD vid card forum and got no replies, maybe somebody here has an answer. I get no "GPU workload" tab on the Adrenalin or Crimson drivers for Sapphire RX 580 Pulse 8GB. Anybody know how I can set the flag to block chain?

As shown below, the Adrenalin drivers are missing the GPU Workload tab that's supposed to be under Gaming->Global Settings. It doesn't show with the Crimson driver, either. Sapphire Pulse RX 580. WTF?

Over the summer I reconfigured my setup, incorporating my Linux and Windows systems into a Lian Li DK-05 desk. I carried over my Corsair h105 and Arctic Cooling Liquid Freezer 240, but the DK-05 has room for 2x360mm radiators in the front, and 1x360mm + 1x480mm in the back. Since Corsair is...

The projection is that in November, Ethereum will go to proof of stake, making GPU mining obsolete. So, what cryptocurrency do we think will be the next to gobble up the available GPU supply?

I started downloading the Ethereum block chain on June 7. As of this AM it's on block 391XXX and 36+ GB of disk space. I'm on cable that routinely tests 175Mb download, and the PC is on 802.11ac at 833Mb (still need to run Cat6 through the house). Is this close to normal?
