Ztaal3 got a reaction from Glenwing in Guide to Display Cables / Adapters (v2)
Yeah a small update, it was a setting on the TV (HDMI deep color) that needed to be on, now with CVT reduced darkness or something I got 4k 60hz working, but I loose the option for 10bit color, but no matter the setting it seems like HDR will not be happening... Oh well time to save up for a new gpu I guess...

Ztaal3 reacted to Colty in HTPC upgrades or just plex?
You can get an adapter like this one - https://www.amazon.com/Club3D-Displayport-1-2-HDMI-CAC-1070/dp/B017BQ8I54?th=1
That'll get you to 4k/60Hz, but I'm not so sure about HDR or VRR.

Ztaal3 reacted to Spotty in F@H COVID-19 Event FAQ
Web control? You can access it here: http://client.foldingathome.org/. It has known issues with the Chrome browser where it will constantly refresh. Try a different browser or use incognito mode.
I would recommend the Advanced Control instead. Right click the F@H icon in the tray icons bar and select Advanced Control.
Check to make sure your GPU is actually working on a project. It may be sitting idle waiting for a new work unit to download/become available.
If you have a work unit processing on the GPU and are checking in Task Manager then it does not show the usage correctly by default. Click on one of the boxes and change it to Cuda for Nvidia or Compute for AMD. That will then show the actual usage.
F@H will need access to the network through the firewall, though you should not require opening any extra ports. It should all be set up from the installation process and be good to go without needing to tweak anything but if you have a third party firewall it might block the F@H program, so if you're having connection issues check that.

Ztaal3 got a reaction from The Knome in Cores for Gaming Q1 2015
We need a test with some actual cpus, especially the low end dual core super overclocked vs mid - high end. As it's a nice way to save some money until you can save up for a bigger an better cpu. This is for 1150 socket at least, but when entering x99 so much changes that it's no point going 1150 first. Just doing 1150 socket cpus the dual core, i3 i5 i7, then against their old brethren from 1155 days, that would be interesting as you can find motherboard and cpus dirt cheap used...
Might be more work than this here just turning of cores, but will be more real lif performance...

Ztaal3 reacted to Aniallation in Surface pro 3 or something else?
Unless you need the power of the Haswell chips in the Surface Pro 3, check out something like the Asus Transformer Book T100 or T200.
Yes, it is possible to install programs onto an SD card and use it as a second drive, however make sure you have a higher speed SD card for this, at least a Class 10, because anything lower will load programs slower then you'd like.
