For AMD users, with this driver update something that's not mentioned in the update notes - a toggle to enable or disable Smart Access Memory (Resizable BAR) appeared:

I put the link in for now. Looking at the samples now.

Looking at this review, I gotta say I'm impressed - probably because I didn't expect much, nice! Especially for owners of older cards like the RX 580 during the shortage. Can't say this feature is going to be very useful for someone with an RX 6900 XT or even a 6800 XT since those are high performing cards anyway, unless there was also RT implemented in the game.

@porinaYour thoughts? Can you add the review link to the original post for more information to the readers?

Fiji went down 1st before Maxwell. Oh man... *pat his 980 Ti*
Last driver was from 2015 iirc.

I've never heard such a thing. It's not true.

As long as there aren't any eels in your hovercraft you should be fine

It will most likely work without issues, but it isn't guaranteed. That's basically how it is now with Nvidia GPUs and FreeSync monitors that aren't on the G-Sync Compatible list.

The English language is full of cases where things may be interpreted in ways other than intended. It is good for me to improve on reducing those cases in my writing.
 
Anno 1800 is the only supported game I care at all about. Likewise I only have modern nvidia cards so it remains to be seen if the games will enable that on nvidia at the same time, or will nvidia need to also release some support update? It might be a case of it works, but nvidia can optimise things over time.
 
The only modern AMD GPU I have is the 5800H APU. Not sure I'll bother with that.

I said BEFORE Polaris/Ryzen APUs. I'll have a look at rewording to make it clearer.
 
Edit: Updated slightly. I originally wrote it intending "older than (A and B)" but it it could be read as "(older than A) and B". Now it is "(older than A) and (older than B)". I probably should use OR, or and I over thinking this now...

Not true, all manufacturers have both good and bad boards. It just depends on the particular model.

The MSI B550 Unify-X is great, the B550 AORUS PRO V2 is a decent choice too. If you're looking for a motherboard on a "budget", you should really be looking at the B550 chipset because you'll get a better board for the price.

looks like artifacting and could be signs of bad VRAM
 
which isnt surprising since 3090 VRAM can be 110c and throttling often if you dont pay attention to it

Your other thread has been removed. Please refrain from posting the same questions in multiple subforums.

It's a good PSU, but it's new as you said and it might've been broken from the start.

Another thing is - is it plugged directly into the wall? Maybe the electrical installation in your house isn't too good and causes voltage fluctuations and so on with higher power draw of your new components, and a small UPS would do the trick to stabilize that?

P.S. I would call the 11900K a sidegrade at best from the 10900K, but mostly a downgrade 😛
 

It's not whether it can handle the load, but it may have slipped past QC.

If you're buying new, and you're looking for a board to use paired with a 5950X, you're most likely going to be looking at X570 boards. Any new X570 board will support the 5950X out of the box.

Since everything is "hackable" and has security holes that we don't even know about, I believe the real question is: how are those vulnerabilities exploited - if there's a vulnerability that requires physical access to the machine to be used, then I think you've got more security problems than the vulnerability itself. But if such design issue can be used and executed remotely, then it becomes a large problem.

HPE and DELL are good but most expensive.
Fujitsu and Lenovo are just as good in reality, but cheaper usually.

If you want a more budget-friendly one, you can look at SuperMicro as they make their own servers as well as supply tons of companies with their servers as OEM devices for the companies to brand as theirs.

That being said, you would probably be best off if you used a 1U server as the "head" of the system, it should be equipped with SSDs, and use a budget-friendly storage array for data. Something like a Lenovo/IBM Storwize V3000-series (V3700 for example) with another disk shelf if you need even more space would do the job quite well.
You connect that array to the server directly and you're golden.

To build the best system possible, you need to determine which part of the system is the most heavily used (storage or compute) and then go from there. If fast and/or reliable storage is important, a dedicated storage array would be ideal.

It has nothing to do with that. Chinese Communist Party is extremely sensitive to matters regarding PR of any kind but especially Taiwan, as officially they recognize that Taiwan is China, so Gigabyte even making that distinction on their Chinese website was bold to say the least.

The "apology" is clearly made so the party officials don't take reprisal for that, as they could easily temporarily or even permanently forbid sales of Gigabyte products.
