Stefan1024 got a reaction from lorenzo_de_monti in CPU bus speed 99.98 and not 100Mhz
Counting to 100 000 000 every second is not as easy as you may think it is. Also it is not critical to be very acurate, so they saved money.

Stefan1024 got a reaction from Algebruh in HEX 2.0 the GREATEST air cooler using a Thermoelectric Heat Pump
You like to get rid of the heat energy of the CPU. If you need a lot of energy to do this (it has a 6 pin PCIe power connector) it's quite ineffient.
Passive coolers are quiete effient, but it's even better if you can recover some energy. My last build used no energy at all for cooling, but recovered a litte bit of electrical energy.
The peltier cooler is effective, but by no means efficient.

Because he can.

Stefan1024 got a reaction from XenosTech in SpaceX's Falcon Heavy successfully fires all 27 engines during its static test fire
They use RP-1 (purified kerosine).
And for the once that use hydrogen, they just create realy clouds, you can have them for free
(I do like rockets, nothing wrong with them.)

One of the reasons he managed to make progress on so many things that were thought to be "impossible" is his tendency to provide "unrealistic" deadlines and objectives.
Yet...

Stefan1024 got a reaction from Bensemus in Samsung's new M3 Cores: Super Wide, True Apple Competitors at Last?
Haha, I like how the bars of the division and FP just fades out to hide how much more time they actually need.
Also, let me know how large the performance gain is after patching for specter and meltdown....

Stefan1024 got a reaction from Dissitesuxba11s in South Korean government preparing bill to ban crypto trading
You can start the engine and then start to remove the snow by hand. You are just not allowed to melt all the snow with the car.
Also the fine if you don't is about 40 USD.

Wasting energy can be illegal. For example it is illigal for us to start the car engine and wait 15 minutes nearby until all the snow melted.
Also what things are illegal or legal changes a lot over time.

Stefan1024 got a reaction from vorticalbox in Microsoft blocking updates for none compliant antivirus softwate
Great, at least we have an option now to disable all updates.
No more forced updates, that's like a delayed christmas gift! /s

Stefan1024 got a reaction from SilkyDistress in PowerColor releases the first custom Vega 64 and it's HUGE
I just leave this here...
(the heat sink is 400x400 mm)
Edit: On topic, 200 MHz extra is quite good.

Stefan1024 got a reaction from SmilesRising in battery water for cooling?
The final product is exactly the same, but destillating (evaporating) the water needs a lot of energy, so they use fancy filters to get the same effect. But then you can't call it destilled water, as it was never destilled.

Stefan1024 got a reaction from Beneteau in 980 Ti - Fixing a blown inductor (1R0)
The FET can be replaced easely as well, they cost about 5$. I repeared a board that was worth 1000$ by replaising a single FET (sadly it was at work and mnot my own).
They are usually "normaly open", meaning when you measure the resistance between all pinn you should have > 10k Ohm. They usually fail short and create a short circuit between drain and source (< 1 ohm). This makes it relatively easy to finde the faulty one.

FET = field effect transistor: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Field-effect_transistor
Basicly the switch that is used in a step down converter: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buck_converter
