    Getting specs for this wasn't easy and even a little conflicting but here's some stuff I came across but didn't include in the post since I couldn't fully confirm. ECC is supported via DDR5 spec which I know isn't the same as true ECC. (per ITHome, "DDR5 UDIMM (ECC & Non-ECC), supporting EXPO...

    LG Reveals Its Lightweight Aerominum Composition as It Announces the World’s Lightest 17-Inch Laptop with a Dedicated RTX 50 GPU

    One of my favorite shows from a while back was Better off Ted, and this totally reminds me of something Phil and Lem created and then brought up to a meeting where names were thrown at the wall for marketing.

    PC Hardware Manufacturers Answer as to Whether or Not Its Better to Use Bundled GPU Adapters or Native PSU 12V-2×6 Cables

    Yeah, I'm not sure if @David_Schroth or @Brent_Justice would have the test equipment needed for this. I'm definitely considering buying one, but I might not be able to use it in my mATX cases. If I do get one, it might have to wait until I do a build in a larger case again.

    PC Hardware Manufacturers Answer as to Whether or Not Its Better to Use Bundled GPU Adapters or Native PSU 12V-2×6 Cables

    Well, I heard back from Aqua Computer, and they said the Ampinel isn't available yet, but they hope to have it ready by mid-January and they do ship to the U.S.

    guess they've got some kind of ongoing discount going but that's still insane even with an elevator.

    The Legend of Zelda Franchise Turns 40 in 2026, and the Next Game Could Include Elements from the Recent Collaboration with Koei Tecmo

    That reminds me, as I occasionally like to imagine new Celebrity Death matches. Going old school here, WWF Battle Royale style, Apple Legal teams vs Nintendo Legal teams, and the winner gets a free AI gift hand delivered from Jensen.

    Latest Raptor Lake RMA story

    Sucks this person went through this. If it was me, I'd find a way, either from the place of purchase or via contacting Intel through other channels, to get this taken care of. This shouldn't be the end of the story as is.

    AMD FSR Redstone Performance Review: ML-Upscaling/ML-Frame Gen/Ray Regeneration

    I think AMD has done a decent job of keeping up when it comes to rasterization, but I would also recommend ignoring YouTubers who don't acknowledge how it is basically just getting into hardware-based ML features with its GPUs.

    Saw this last week as well, almost did a post on it. Turns out its not a custom modded driver but one which is included in Windows Server 25 and some W11 builds but needs registry changes to activate in W11. Yeah, use at own risk and make a system backup if you do. Otherwise, just wait and...
