  1. The Lord of the Rings Trilogy Returns to Theaters This Summer

    How much new material? How touched up for the new special effects? And given the extended status, for an already very long set of movies, how will my bladder manage a large cherry coke and a what? 5 hour movie??
  2. NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 Is Only Worth $700, according to Micro Center

    What are they trading them in for? A 7900 xtx?
  3. Limited-Edition Fallout Gear Announced by Corsair and Elgato

    Ummm, I know what the microphone does, the other two pieces I have not a clue. Tried looking at specs and the Corsair site, still dont know. Not an audiophile so what does the box with the buttons do and what does the box with the dial (I assume a volume control) do? For $160 I expect more than...
  4. RGB Lighting on RAM Can Cause Permanent Burn Marks on GPUs, Users Say

    Not a problem with my current case, still good to know I suppose. Wonder how much a layer that blocks UV but not visible light would add to costs? I also read the other day, interestingly enough, our retina's can see some UV were it not that our cornea blocks it while remaining transparent to...
  5. Microsoft Reveals Pricing for Windows 10 Extended Security Updates

    Pricing isnt horrible. Wonder how many will actually do it?
  6. AMD Launches Ryzen Embedded 8000 Series Processors with Zen 4 Cores, RDNA 3 Graphics, and Integrated NPUs for AI Applications

    Looks like discrete silicone to me: https://www.amd.com/en/technologies/xdna.html
  7. ASUS Teases ROG MJOLNIR: “Not An April Fools’ Joke”

    WILL not might :) All depends what it is or does? I use a power conditioner. I had a place, years ago, with really dirty power, previous owner had done his own electrical work and what was coming into the building wasnt great to start with. After losing a couple of monitors and a PSU in a...
  8. Qualcomm Says That Its Snapdragon X Elite Processor Should Be Able to Run Most Windows Games

    My phone has a Snapdragon SOC, I cans plays Crysis?
  9. Qualcomm Says That Its Snapdragon X Elite Processor Should Be Able to Run Most Windows Games

    Is it time for Amd/Intel to change from using die space on chip for x32 and other legacy support and switching to emulation as well? I wonder how much that might clean up something like my 7950 x3d, would it make room for more cores or make for smaller dies thus larger yields? Or is the area...
  10. ASUS Intel 700|600 Series and AMD AM5 Motherboards Gain Support for up to 256 GB of DDR5 Memory

    Looks like there are DIMMS that are 20 watts each. That's starting to be appreciable. https://www.tomshardware.com/pc-components/ddr5/micron-shows-massive-256gb-ddr5-8800-memory-sticks-high-capacity-20-watt-mcrdimm-modules-for-next-generation-servers-come-in-different-flavors
  11. New Windows 11 Update “Completely Breaks the ASUS ROG Ally,” Users Say

    This has been a long standing issue with MS and the AMD drivers. Had to deal with it with my Corsair Laptop when I got it last year. I hope AMD and MS can get this worked out because it is freaking annoying to deal with.
  12. ASUS Intel 700|600 Series and AMD AM5 Motherboards Gain Support for up to 256 GB of DDR5 Memory

    Playing Secret World Legends four an hour-ish: All things considered not a significant energy sink on my system. My PSU reports from ~250 to ~600 (mostly 300-450) watts on the power in while playing.
  13. ASUS Intel 700|600 Series and AMD AM5 Motherboards Gain Support for up to 256 GB of DDR5 Memory

    Ya lets avoid bsod city Testmem5 maxed at 2.75 watts per DIMM or 11 watts total. I suspect the onboard power management is doing its thing to cap the power draw. What the physical configuration for the 1tb of ram? 16 DIMM sockets at 64gb each? I dont know much about the server space and how...
  14. ASUS Intel 700|600 Series and AMD AM5 Motherboards Gain Support for up to 256 GB of DDR5 Memory

    Ah not per dimm, per channel so 8 instead of 4 - still not very many watts overall.
  15. ASUS Intel 700|600 Series and AMD AM5 Motherboards Gain Support for up to 256 GB of DDR5 Memory

    Thanks, They are running about .75 to 1.2 watts each right now, not doing much though. Should get a game going and see.
  16. ASUS Intel 700|600 Series and AMD AM5 Motherboards Gain Support for up to 256 GB of DDR5 Memory

    I got very curious about the power draw of my own DIMMS after Grimlakin's post. I could not find much info on the topic. What little I did find suggested power draw for DIMMS is negligible, even stating the size of the Capacity didnt matter., just the type DDR vs DDR 1-5 etc. The few, scraggly...
  17. ASUS Intel 700|600 Series and AMD AM5 Motherboards Gain Support for up to 256 GB of DDR5 Memory

    Was gonna post I dont see a bios update. Turns out I dont need one. Not that I plan to upgrade any time in the next few years. I have more ram than I need as it is. I have had it all in use a time or two but not often.
  18. NETGEAR Launches Nighthawk CM3000 DOCSIS 3.1 High-Speed Internet Cable Modem with Support for Up to 2.5 Gbps Speeds

    Until Spectrum supports something over 920mbps Is there really a reason for me to get one?
  19. T-FORCE XTREEM ARGB DDR5 Gaming Memory Blends Aurorean Aesthetics with Up to 8,200 MHz Speeds

    Maybe I'll be able to run them over 5200. When they exist in a size I want that is.
