    The part where it is alleged LTT auctioned off a prototype water block they promised to return is troubling. That requires an official response.

    So, LMG content is rushed, inaccurate and focus more on being "funny" rather than accurate?

    dangeredwolf got a reaction from soldier_ph in Nvidia unveils the Quadro RTX 4000, a single slot, $900 RTX 2070-esque card   
    https://www.pcgamer.com/nvidia-announces-midrange-quadro-rtx-4000/
     

    Image Source: Nvidia
     
     
     
    Here's a quick spec sheet for those interested:
     

     
    What I find interesting is that there is less memory bandwidth on the Quadro RTX 4000 than on the GeForce RTX 2070.
    TechPowerUp also claims that the Die Size is larger, but I can't find this information elsewhere, so take it with a grain of salt.

    US imperial units are defined using metric units and have been for over 100 years. So this affects the US too, technically.

    dangeredwolf got a reaction from ErykYT3 in Which Windows operating system is the most hated in history?   
    Okay, I think you're exaggerating a bit.
     
    It's more like requiring a minimum of an i5-6600K and 12 GB of RAM nowadays, with at least a 980 or a 1070 to run Aero.
     
    It's not like total insanity like Titan Xps in SLI, but your average joe's i3 machine would never be able to run it, your grandparents' PC wouldn't even come close. But if you were using higher end hardware, you'd probably get along perfectly fine. 
     
    This was especially crippling for laptops: Fitting with the previous analysis, most laptops for example lack 1070-level performance. They don't have CPUs comparable to a 6600K. They rarely come with more than 8 GB of RAM unless you spend a ton of money.

    dangeredwolf got a reaction from AgusAlexander in new GPU now cant OC my CPU   
    That build sounds like the PSU should be enough to handle it.
     
    I plopped those into PCPartPicker and it lists an estimation of 367W at stock clocks, but overclocked this might surpass 400W or so, but a 650W power supply should be plenty.
     
    Test it with both your 550W and 650W power supplies as they both should be sufficiently powerful enough. If you're still having problems, it's probably the motherboard I'd imagine.

    dangeredwolf reacted to GoodBytes in Windows 10 vs Windows 7   
    Game Mode for Win32 games allocates more process time to the game before switching to other processes, and depriorities other processes on the back. If you have a 6 core fancy spec computer, and you close all your software when playing a game. This feature will not give you anything. Any fluctuation in performance will be benchmark errors. It is designed for older system, weak systems, or those doing things on the back which they don't want to close or interrupt, minimizing the impact of the game.
     
    Game More for UWP games cuts out many layers of UWP framework to allow the game to be closer to the hardware allowing it to provide the same performance as if it was a Win32 made game. Again, the impact is minimal to not at all, if you have a fancy computer that can handle all that to start with.
     
    You can go through yourself the long list of security fixes and improvement available for Windows 10. I won't be listing a list. I have better things to do than to waste a weekend on it.
     
    Windows Defender under Windows 7, and Windows Defender on Windows 8/10 are 2 different things. Windows Defender on Windows 7 is just a way for Microsoft to push popular malware removal. Windows 10 Defender, is Microsoft Security Essentials of Windows 7 made better with better algorithms, plus an actual malware scanner, although still basics (Malwarebytes will be far better choice). While better, it still aims to provide protection to those who uses no protection at all, or used expired trial security software which are disabled, or won't remove anything until you pay.
    Thanks for adding to the list.
     
     
    I know this. That is why I didn't say "it has Aero Snap", I said it has "2x2" snapping, and you can do 2x1 snapping.
     
    Windows 7 doesn't have the Action Center. It has a panel CALLED Action Center, but that is just by name. It is now called Maintenance and Security panel. Action Center is like you phone action center. It shows you notifications of apps, and allows you to quickly turn on and off things like: Wireless, Quiet Hours (another new feature), Night Light, VPN (for supported VPN), Project, Tablet Mode, and more.
     
    Oops, I mean "Improved Sticky Notes". Corrected my post. What's improved:  It has  Pen support and Cortana integration to detect appointment or reminders you write/type on it.
     
    Working does not mean support. And actually my bad, I meant 8K support. After 200% scale, and even in between scales, many Windows 7 icons and elements don't appear right. Also, it doesn't have good DPI scaling compared to Windows 10, not to mention the compatibility options for unsupported programs.
     
    Not really. Windows 7 Pro and up has "File History" like feature. But there is no way to actually backup the data somewhere else, and has extreamly limited control on what data to backup, and has no way to resume a backup from a clean install, or anything. Also, a simple API command will wipe it all, making it useless for any backup purposes. Windows 10 is significantly improved, and more powerful, and flexible over Windows 7, making it actually useful for backups.
     
    I stand corrected. I meant burning any CDs or DVDs. Not ISOs only. Windows 7 could only burn ISOs. So even better
     
    https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/b8/2011/08/23/improving-our-file-management-basics-copy-move-rename-and-delete/
     
    Yes, I stand corrected. I got confused with the mobile broadband switch with a better (free) connection, such as your home wireless as you arrive home.
     
    Incorrect.  You can find many benchmarks showing this. Here is one from a quick Googling:

     
    The article assumes that the Dell GUI interface is UEFI. But its not. It's a hacked-up EFI. Dell is REALLLLLY good at making BIOSes. You can find impressive looking BIOSes from Del back in Windows XP and Vista days. Windows 7 EFI, meaning it supports GPT booting, and 3TB or larger HDDs. That is about it.
     

     
    And that is.... more details. My point exactly. You also have a percentage, not just a bar showing you the progress.

    Once you install Windows 10 on your system (Retail or System Builder OEM (the OEM you buy in stores.. not Dell, HP, etc.. OEM)) for the first time, and create or login with your Microsoft account, the product key is stored on that account. Next time you reinstall Windows 10, you can pick "I don't have a key" in the setup screen, and once you add your Microsoft account to the system, Windows Activation Server will see that the product key stored in your account is associated to this PC before, and activates. You never had to enter that product key
