    Weird laptop screen issue

    I suspect it's still windows update breaking them. It's a known issue. I used to have to deal with it all the time on dedicated BOINC rigs with GPUs and Windows. I ended up just blocking Microsoft at my hardware router to block the automated crap and then later just went with Linux.

    Weird laptop screen issue

    Is this a case of Windows update screwing up the GPU drivers?

    Ultimate Steampunk build

    You know I always wanted to build a system with copper pipes. Not necessarily a "steam punk" look, but just the copper pipes idea. After seeing all the trouble he went through on trying to get it designed and setup I think I'm going to pass on it. At least for now, but man it does look good...

    JONSBO Announces Its D200 M-ATX Case in Black or White, Featuring a Curved Glass Panel and a Temperature Display for Under $50

    I mean if you're gonna put the case on your desk you're most likely wanting to be able to see inside the case so you'll put it on the right. I don't think it much matters what your dominate hand is in relation to where you put a PC case. For situations where the case sits better on the desk on...

    JONSBO Announces Its D200 M-ATX Case in Black or White, Featuring a Curved Glass Panel and a Temperature Display for Under $50

    For some reason when I read "curved glass panel" I was definitely thinking this thing was going to be a concaved curve like the curved widescreen displays. When I seen the curve just wrapped around the front I was like oh, yeah. That makes more sense. I do like the panel on the side of the case...

    Bazzite? Anyone using it?

    A bit off-topic, but yeah r/hardwareswap is super fast. You should see how quickly the HardwareSwap discord rolls. I need to check out TPU's FS/T section though. Even though I typically don't sell, I do buy crap I don't need often. lol

    Bazzite? Anyone using it?

    I know I should. I just hate selling crap online anymore these days. I sell stuff I know works, but somehow the buyer figures out a way to break it and then blames it on me. I mean, it doesn't happen often but one is one too many. Besides, a mint, hardly ever used, hard case kept OG Steamdeck in...

    Bazzite? Anyone using it?

    Man, I got a steamdeck. It just sits in its case collecting dust. I've played it maybe half a dozen times. Tried out a few games, it was cool. Tried some emulators. That was even cooler. It's been a dust magnet for like 2 years now. Same with my Nintendo Switch. Poor devices.

    AMD Is Rumored to Be Prepping a New Ryzen 9000 X3D Processor Featuring 192 MB L3 Cache and 16 Cores

    I kind of wonder if this new SKU will actually be part of the EPYC lineup for AM5 which will make more sense for them to release instead of a Ryzen branded part.

    AMD Is Rumored to Be Prepping a New Ryzen 9000 X3D Processor Featuring 192 MB L3 Cache and 16 Cores

    If the price is closer to $1000 then I'll just continue buying EPYCs.

    AMD Is Rumored to Be Prepping a New Ryzen 9000 X3D Processor Featuring 192 MB L3 Cache and 16 Cores

    I got my hopes up the last time this rumor hit the mill. Not getting my hopes up again. If it does happen then I'll be extremely happy. As this will probably be one of the best consumer chips for the work I do. Assuming the price isn't ridiculous.

    I'm sure a company that drops millions, possibly even billions on failed games can handle it.

    Did my mobo die?

    The only issue is things powered by the CMOS battery being shorted. Outside of that, the chances of an unpowered board being damaged by water is nearly zero. Technically water doesn't damage electronics. Well, fresh water. Salt water can and will cause rapid corrosion.

    Specifications for NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Leaked and Is Rumored to Release as Early as Next Month

    About Nvidia? No. I care about as much as they do about us gamers. Maybe they can use their AI models to figure out what I mean.

    Front page links not working

    I don't know if anything was changed. Didn't do anything on my end, but it worked this morning for me.
