  1. I kind of want Linus and Luke to react to this old studio tour: Could be as LTT / FP exclusive or WAN show segment. Would love to hear Linus and Luke's reactions and new insights.
  2. I've built a new PC today, but it seems that the MOBO is reporting the CPU voltage 2x as high as it should be. When booting (haven't installed an OS yet) I get a CPU voltage error, it's reporting 2.9V for my ryzen 5800X. When I manually set the voltage to 1V, it reports 2V with a voltage error. Is this bad? I don't really want to send the mobo back. Do I have to reseat my CPU?
  3. You can look at the requirements of your Uni and go from there.
  4. Budget (including currency): (€1000-1200) Country: Netherlands Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Factorio, video consumption Other details I want to play factorio with 60 FPS. Factorio benefits from high single core performance and high memory clocks. It's not very demanding so I will keep the 980ti from my previous rig until 3070's have come down in price a bit. (budget is NOT for GPU, only the other parts) My main screen is Ultrawide 1440p (3440 x 1440), with 1080p on the side. The parts I have so far: Samsung 980 pro 1TB €~230 Samsung 980 Pro 1TB Corsair Vengeance LPX €~150 Corsair Vengeance LPX CMK32GX4M2D3600C18 CMK32GX4M2D3600C18 2x 16 GB 3600 MT/s AMD Ryzen 5 5600X €~380 AMD Ryzen 5 5600X Boxed ASUS TUF Gaming €~160 ASUS TUF Gaming B550M-PLUS (WI-FI) B550M-PLUS (Wi-fi) I still need: New PSU (able to handle Ryzen 5 5600X + power draw of 980ti / 3070 (whichever is higher) New Case (preferably mATX) with space for 2x sata SSD's and 2 HDD's from previous build. For the case I don't need anything flashy, just want something that's easy to build in. Questions: Do I have to overclock the Ryzen 5 5600X to get the advertised 3600Mhz from my RAM? AMD advertises that Zen 3 is compatible with speeds up to 3200MHz and Linus had this screen in the video: If I do have to overclock: What air cooler do you recommend for this? Thanks in advance!

    Is WAN show in 30 mins?

  6. Apparently the attack can be initiated from the outside, without prior access to the car. But what do I know, that video could easily have been faked.
  7. Love the case, the external switch and usb ports really make for a clean look. Would love to see a sort of fire lighting situation instead of a lamp.
  8. Do you run raytraycing in Battlefield 5? I read that that could have a significant performance impact.

    Wireless headset advice

    I will recommend the PXC 550. Excellent noise cancelling and battery life. Also you can adjust the amount of noise cancelling with a slider via an app. I have them myself and I can go multiple days without charging. Excellent bluetooth you can connect up to 2 devices at the same time.
  10. Well they have been meaning to do this for years, here is an article from may 2017 https://newsroom.intel.com/news/intel-advances-pc-experience-new-platforms-technologies-industry-collaboration/#gs.IuGfAvss They integrated it onto the chip.
  11. Thunderbolt can be used to expand your IO, for example the razer core also has ethernet and USB on the back. There are also thunderbolt storage enclosures. You have to keep in mind the Thunderbolt 3 spec allows for transfers up to 40 Gbit of data per second (5 GB per second).
  12. Sorry, I should have clarified. It's the new Sunny Cove architecture I think Linus mentioned that multi GPU is possible for rendering etc., not for gaming. But you could totally have a laptop with thunderbolt and a GTX 1050 and plug an egpu into it and have a GTX 1080Ti for example.
  13. Ice lake is intel's new generation of CPU's that use their new 10nm manufacturing process
  14. EGpu's have been around for a couple of years now, and different manufacturers have implemented their own interface for external graphics cards. For example, Dell has an external GPU enclosure for certain Alienware laptops. MSI has a dock that you can slot certain laptops into. However, most eGPU enclosures rely on thunderbolt to communicate with the laptop. Up until now thunderbolt was not integrated on the CPU, resulting in severe performance penalties for the thunderbolt-based GPU enclosures. Linus showed this in the video below. The alienware enclosure has a proprietary connector delivering a 4x pci-e signal to the laptop. The razer core only has thunderbolt to the laptop. Credit: Walden Kirsch/Intel Corporation "It's the first platform where we integrated Thunderbolt 3 natively onto the SOC" -Gregory M. Bryant (Senior VP and general manager from Intel) The performance pentaly may soon vanish as Intel has announced Ice Lake (Sunny Cove architecture) at CES 2019, these CPU's with the sunny cove microarchitecture will integrate thunderbolt on the SOC, for increased performance. With increasingly more powerful CPU's being built into laptops, egpu's may become a good option for someone who only wants one computer to do all his/her work on. Ice Lake in combination with a GPU enclosure the performance may be on par with a desktop equivalent.
