    Probably Bound to Happen: Increased Power Draw for DLSS 5 Reportedly Claims Its First Victim After a User Finds an RTX 5090 with a Melted Power Ada...

    A quick gemini query says yes this does happen. VERY rarely... and lets be real. More people dropping a high end card in that are experienced system builders are doing it with VERY solid connections the first time, NOT doing multiple re-seats 'because it might be having problems.' and...

    Early Reviews for Marvel’s Wolverine Are Mixed at Best, Pointing Out Repetitive and Uninspiring Gameplay with an Overabundance of Handholding

    I wonder how much of that is due to Marvel licensing wanting a game that can be safely Teen rated.

    A Real Talk Discussion about DLSS 5: 3 Good Things, 5 Bad Things, and 4 Questions For You

    DLSS itself has become such a crutch that gaming today at 4k is deemed just great if it's REALLY at 1440p and upscaled with DLSS or FSR or whatever. And to me that is parenthetical to what computer gaming is all about! It was the scrubs on console that had to rely on upscaling dagnabit! We...

    I mean yes... that is very true. Any monitoring introduces impedance even if negligible.

    PowerColor ALPHYN AM10 Wireless Gaming Mouse Review

    That looks like a solid mouse. I have a logitech mx master series mouse that is solid for work that I love more than my corsair mouse.. Just dont want to mix brands and have multiple software management platforms running on my home system

    Right but because testers ignored them then.. doesnt mean you can ignore them now. Not saying its right. Clearly small connectors distributing a lot of power need to be over built.. but clearly they are NOT. Hence following the spec. In enterprise compute you always over follow...

    Well the people that had the failure did catch it and take action. But they also noted it happened. But there is also some ownus on hardware testers with proper monitoring tools to actually use them. These connectors were rated for 30 insertions when launched. People running test...

    A Real Talk Discussion about DLSS 5: 3 Good Things, 5 Bad Things, and 4 Questions For You

    I agree with your salient points in the video. Match for match really. And honestly as a 5090 owner I won't be turning this on in my games until such time as the power draw issue is corrected by Nvidia. One bit of feedback... it was pretty clear you were reading... practicing your...
