dusty pc's are not cool & not cool either (neither cool looking and low temps :rolleyes: )

Hi everyone!   I'm creating this post because the bottom "WAN Show" Logo duning the shows it's wrong. The center hexagon is slightly moved to the left. This has been around for a long time now, action must be taken!   OCD UNITE!   Here is a ghetto-MSpaint I did for the better comprehension of what I'm saying   

 
Thanks for reading
Best regards

(PS: I hope you realise I'm not really demanding for this to be fixed, I just wanted to share this with the community just "for the lols" )

I've never heard of him either  
 
Just messing. Thanks for the mention! 

Yeah, I was surprised it wasn't the first post in this topic, so I took advantage of the situation.

Hi, everyone. I wasn't sure where to put this, but I can't make a new topic in the Linus' videos/ramblings/news forum, so here seemed like the next best place.
 
Basically, I watched this video 
here from Linus last night. In the video, I realized that Linus was misinformed by Gigabyte about the contents of the system. And in fact, Gigabyte is lying to everyone, because their sale page still has the incorrect information. Let me explain now. 
So... Gigabyte tells Linus (and everyone else) it's a GTX 760 video card. Linus THINKS it's a GTX 760. It's actually a GTX 870M. If you pause the video at 4:48-4:49 before he zooms in to show the throttled clock speeds, you can look at his GPU-Z screenshot of the card's specifications.

GTX 760 specifications: 1152 cores, 980 base/1033 boost clock, 6000MHz mem bandwidth, 256-bit mem bus, 2GB and 4GB vRAM configurations. Proof: http://www.geforce.com/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gtx-760/specifications
GTX 870M: 1344 cores (check), 941 base (check)/967 boost (higher in video) clock, 5000MHz mem bandwidth (check), 192-bit mem bus (check), 3GB and 6GB configurations (check), downclocks as far down as 2D clocks when super hot (check). Proof: http://www.geforce.com/hardware/notebook-gpus/geforce-gtx-870m/specifications
 
So basically, Gigabyte seriously took a GTX 870M, modified the vBIOS to boost its "boost" clock and return that it's a GTX 760, shoved it into that tiny thing without proper cooling, having it downclock on itself due to overheating, and is selling it to people as being a desktop GTX 760.
 
The reason the GTX 860M 2GB card works in the small PCs is because it's maxwell, not kepler, and runs exceedingly cool for its power. It does not need a whole lot of cooling, but the stronger mobile kepler cards (like 680M, 780M, 870M, 880M) need at least a decent cooling configuration to work, which this lacks, and thus Linus' testing overheated the card easily. As for the 870M's relative strength to desktop hardware, it *IS* a GTX 660Ti with 5000MHz memory clock instead of 6000MHz memory clock and more memory. 660Ti specs as proof: http://www.geforce.com/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gtx-660ti/specifications

What are you trying to do?
 
If you're trying to connect your PC to the monitor, don't use an HDMI to VGA adapter. Use a DVI to VGA adapter if your video card supports it, or an HDMI to DVI adapter. HDMI to VGA requires an active converter which is very expensive and sacrifices some visual quality.
 
DVI-I on PC -> DVI to VGA adapter -> VGA cable -> Monitor
HDMI on PC -> HDMI to DVI adapter -> DVI cable -> Monitor

Thanks so much for joining. My vision is a community based on positive member interaction and helping each other. I believe that if we all work together toward this goal, we will have success in the long run.
We don't have official forum rules or anything like that yet, but as long as everyone is respectful of each other, and patient with the growing pains that we are going to experience (vBulletin 5 is VERY beta right now) we can make this into an AWESOME community forum.
