  1. Damn, I was hoping at least for others to corroborate the issue on their end, but it seems like this may just be on my end?
  2. Hey all. I posted about this on reddit beforehand, but after an hour of no reply, I figured this was my best shot. It's been a long time since last I posted here, so forgive me if my etiquette isn't up to par. I took a look at the guidelines for troubleshooting, so hopefully I don't neglect anything. My hardware. Operating System: Windows 11 Pro 64-bit (Latest Update) Graphics Card: EVGA RTX 3090 FTW3 (Latest Drivers) RAM: 2x16GB Crucial Ballistic 3200MHz CPU: AMD R9 5950X Microsoft Edge: Version 114.0.1823.67 (Official build) (64-bit) I am running Ublock Origin, Reddit Enhancement Suite & Bitwarden as my only extensions; turning all of these off does not affect the behavior. The issue When viewing fullscreen content in Microsoft Edge, any time I Alt+Tab away from the content and back into it, the media in question will not respond to input; play/pause, fast-forward/rewind; escape, etc. I have to manually click on the window to return it to "focus" and resume as normal. If I Alt+Tab away and return, the issue resumes. This is not an issue on Mozilla Firefox, as I have just tested and determined. I have uninstalled the latest Cumulative Update preview from June 28th, but this did not resolve the issue. Is this simply a bug with Microsoft Edge that needs to be addressed? Do other users have a similar issue?

      Thank you haha I made it from a template

  3. Hey guys! I've had a very peculiar issue for an undetermined amount of time. It's not a huge deal to me since it's fairly infrequent, but narrowing down the root cause would give me some nice peace of mind if possible. The issue itself is vague enough though that I have little confidence I will be able to find it without combing through several solutions at once and being unsure which did it. Bastion, Transistor, Borderlands 1/2, Rocket League. All of these titles have been in my rotation recently, and all of them will occasionally experience the same brief "freeze" of about half a second to one second. No micro-stuttering thereafter, no audio issues, nothing. It will simply halt, and then resume a few moments later. I do regular maintenance on my PC - disk defragmenting, disk cleanup, sfc scans, regular update checks, and I restart it every day. In the background I have Discord, Steam, G Hub and Veam (my backup software) running. The backup software is scheduled for daily backups but otherwise sits idle, so I don't think it's that. My specs can be found on my profile, but a quick rundown of them are as follows: CPU: Ryzen 9 3900X GPU: Zotac Mini GTX 1080 Ti RAM: 2x16GB Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 3200MHz (XMP enabled) Boot Drive: 250GB 970 Evo M.2 Game Drive: 2TB WD Blue HDD Windows 10 20H1. Is there something wrong I might be able to fix? Is this a quirk with Windows 10? Just the nature of HDDs? I'm not too stressed about this, but it would be cool to fix it. Thanks!
  4. The issue is, this has been a problem for months. I don't think it's a Game Ready Driver issue, because their Studio drivers are just held back. What could be the culprit to jump to such an aggressive solution? I would hate to go through the process of redoing everything only to find out the problem isn't on me.
  5. Hey guys. I originally posted this topic on the r/Photoshop subreddit, but it got zero attention. I also tried on the Adobe Support Forum, but it got no attention there, either. I'm really hoping I can get some help with this, even if it's for a specific piece of software. Whenever my Graphics Processor is enabled, opening a file will take me between 45 seconds and 1 minute. This could literally be a basic, 512x512 JPEG avatar for Discord, up to a multi-layer PSD file. Zooming and panning feel smooth *once it's loaded,* but the loading itself takes forever. Panels slowly populate, the entire application hangs, and it's practically unusable until it fully loads. Once I turn my Graphics Processor off, opening files is snappy. However, zooming/panning are practically unusable with how slow they become. I feel like I have to compromise on one awful scenario or another, and I'm being charged a not-insignificant amount of money per month to make said compromise. I find this unacceptable. Here's a list, in no particular order, of what I've tried: Resetting Preferences Running Photoshop as Administrator Changing Font Preview quantity Changing Grid Subdivisions Changing ALL options for Graphics Processor Clean Reinstalling Photoshop Clean Reinstalling Graphics Drivers Updating Windows Changing Recent Files Quantity Moving Scratch Disks Moving image files to same NVMe SSD as Photoshop There might even be more I can't recall. None of these have fixed the issue. For posterity's sake, I'll post my PC's specs below: CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 3900X Motherboard: Gigabyte Aorus X570 Elite GPU: ZOTAC GTX 1080 Ti Mini RAM: 2x16GB Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 3200MHz Windows 10 20H2 64-Bit 1x 250GB Samsung 970 Evo NVMe SSD 1x 2TB WD Blue 7200RPM HDD (Games) 2x 1TB WD Blue 7200RPM HDD (Scratch, Media) Help? Please?
  6. As the title states, I'm having a very frustrating issue. One website I browse in particular, I have an annoying issue with: after only a short time, it will stop loading images entirely, and the only fix is to either open the page in incognito, or clear my cache in my browser. Image previews won't load, opening the images in a new tab won't load, and opening the image file directly does not do anything either. This is such a peculiar issue, I wouldn't even know where to begin troubleshooting it. The site is https://derpibooru.org/ and I'm running the latest version of Windows 10 and the Edge Browser. Help?
  7. Hey guys. I'm looking to upgrade my computer from my current case/cooler. I'm going with the Fractal Design Define 7, but I've yet to settle on an air cooler. However, I am interested in the Dark Rock Pro 4 by be quiet!. My biggest concern, however, is clearance with my abnormally-tall RAM. The Vengeance RGB Pro kit is approximately 51mm tall. The cooler itself says it supports RAM of up to 40mm in height, but the fan can be adjusted. I'm not sure if this adjustment will be enough, and I'm also not sure if the RAM notches on the tower will be tall enough for the kit. I ran be quiet!'s motherboard comaptibility checker, and it said it would be fine with my board, but their checker says nothing of RAM. My board is the Gigabyte Aorus Elite X570. I can find very little information on this topic as I search, and I plan to order the cooler as soon as possible. Should I forego this cooler entirely? I'm focused on a mixture of sound + performance. Will the cooler fit in this configuration? Can the fan be moved to the rear of the cooler instead to assure clearance? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
  8. Hey guys, first of all, sorry if the title of this post is too open-ended or ambiguous. I'll try to be as detailed and thorough as I can in the body. I recently upgraded from an i7-5820k + EVGA X99 FTW-K, to an R9 3900X + Gigabyte X570 Aorus Elite (Wifi). I paired it with 32GB (2x16GB) of 3200MHz Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro RAM. I reinstalled Windows 10, and immediately flashed my BIOS to the latest version. Afterwards, I applied the XMP Profile on the RAM, and left everything else alone. I noticed that my temperatures were sitting in the mid-high 50s at idle, and would frequently jump up to 70s if I opened a game, tried playing a YouTube video, etc. My fans would ramp up and down all of the time, which itself was obnoxious. I set the fan curve for my four fans to 50% below 70C, and to ramp up to 100% by 85C. This is done via Gigabyte's fan curve manager. I removed my cooler and redid my thermal paste application, making sure the cooler was re-mounted evenly and cleanly. The cooler is a 280mm Captain AIO by Deepcool, specifically the cooler integrated into the NEW Ark 90 case. After that, my temperatures came down to around 45C at idle, but even watching videos will see temperatures go up to mid-50s. When playing games, right now specifically Monster Hunter: World, my CPU will sit around 70C, and peak as high as 80C. I've updated my Chipset drivers, I've tried using the AMD Ryzen Balanced Power Plan, and I've checked all of the voltage settings I can to see if the XMP profile set things too high. When my CPU ramps up, the voltage will go as high as 1.425v, but it usually idles around 1.125v. Do you have any advice? Anything I need to know about 3rd-Gen Ryzen that I haven't done? Specs: Windows 10 (1909) Gigabyte X570 Aorus Elite (Wifi) AMD Ryzen R9 3900X 2x16GB 3200MHz Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro Corsair RM750 PSU Deepcool NEW Ark 90 (w/integrated Captain 280mm AIO) Help?
  9. Source: Nintendo Life To me, this sounds like a very good thing, and might also be why Ubisoft has been on the uptick for the last little while. Many consumers (myself included) have slowly had our perception change, seeing Ubisoft go from a great company to something of an EA mirror, to now being more in line with its former glory. If this has anything to do with it, then I can't wait to see what the future holds. Thoughts?
  10. Source: arsTECHNICA Honestly, how many more flaws/bugs are we going to find in modern CPUs? Between this, Spectre and Meltdown, I'm beginning to think it's only a matter of time before the entire modern CPU architecture as a whole is filled with holes from left to right. I know that's an exaggeration, but it seems this year has not been too kind to Intel or AMD, and Intel is just getting hit again. Thoughts?
  11. Upon asking around, I'm getting conflicting results. Some users are reporting the button is fine, others are reporting it's missing. All of my personal testing has shown it to be the latter. I wonder if it's only slowly being rolled out?
  12. Edit 2: It looks like this has been confirmed, if PetaPixel is to be trusted. It appears to be in conjunction with a partnership between Google and Getty Images. Credits to @VegetableStu for the link. Original Post: I wanted to post this in Tech News, but as of now I cannot find any online source. As of today, you can no longer view image sources through Google Images. Before, when viewing an image, you could click "View Image" and be taken to the page where the image is, typically resulting in a URL ending in a .jpg or .png file extension. This is no longer possible, as the only options are now to visit the website hosting the image, or to save it directly to your Google Account, which has proven difficult for copyrighted material. Additionally, right-clicking and opening the image in a new tab will ONLY open the thumbnail; you can no longer open HD images through Google directly. You are required to go to the page host. All images also now have a "Image may contain copyright" tag underneath them, next to where image resolution is now displayed. This appears on all content. This appears to be true on multiple browsers, both with and without Google accounts logged in. Edit: Upon further investigation, this does not seem to affect everybody. I've been receiving conflicting reports, where some users are missing the option, and others have it just fine. This has held true across both Chrome and Firefox Quantum. It appears this has to do with Google's Save feature.
  13. Are you making sure you're plugging your video cables into the new GPU instead of the integrated graphics?
