Hello all. I'm having an un-google-able problem (I try and look up the problem and I get nothing but tutorials on something completely unrelated) and I'm hoping someone here knows what can be done. I was getting notices from DaVinci Resolve that my CPU driver is not supported so I tried updating it. now I'm getting a weird white balance flickering thing going on when looking at a white screen and a horrible ghosting effect when I Alt/Tab a game or move a window over a video playing in Chrome. For some reason, Chrome thinks the video playing is the most important thing so it's being shown through every window on top of it (provided picture is chrome in the back, then steam, firefox with the same video, then LTT. Photoshop has become unusable with how bad the white balance keep shifting and the canvas freaks out whenever something is resized. I believe this has something to do with hardware acceleration because it goes away when it's turned off but everything that needs it starts to chug. Disabling the integrated graphics fixes it as well but makes the PC feel it's been throttled hard. It's never done this before the update and even rolling back the drivers didn't help. Is there a way to fix this without taking away performance/disabling hardware? I've tried prioritizing the dedicated GPU and doing fresh installs of GPU and CPU drivers as well as Chrome (It's not just a chrome issues but figured I might as well try), and no dice. I thought I remembered seeing a fix for this before but don't remember what it involved. Specs: MSI GS66 Stealth Windows 10 Home 21H1 Intel Core i7-10750H | Chipset Driver: 10.1.18263.8193 / iGPU Driver: 26.20.100.7642 16GB RAM GeForce RTX 2070 Max-Q | Driver: 472.47 Studio

Possible to change to covid ?
ddrkreature replied to Simon_Sniff's topic in Folding@home, Boinc, and Coin Mining
I think by default it grabs any computer resource you have to use (eg. CPU and GPU) so unless it's been disabled, it should be using it out of the box. Short answer: Yes -
How much are you looking to spend? What's the max that you can spend?

Laptop Case for Macbook Pro 15.6 inch early-2013
ddrkreature replied to rattacko123's topic in Laptops and Pre-Built Systems
Anything with solid stitching and good padding should suffice. Personally, I would go for a bag rather than a sleeve so I can carry external perifferals and power with the computer and not have unnecessary pressure put on the case or computer. I also find that they tend to last longer. -
Why did you join the PC Master Race poll
ddrkreature replied to kelvinhall05's topic in General Discussion
Because there were games on the pc I wanted to play. At the time I didn't know jack about hardware, much less specs or building, so I had to learn as i went. Retrofitted my pc with a mid range GPU at the time and got it to last a few years. Now I got a (now was) super beefy system I spend most of my game time on. I still go back to my consoles often, though -
If you want wired, the Plantronics gamecom 780 (788 is the newer model) is probably the best all around I've ever owned and recommend in a heart beat. About $60-80

Overclocking a gtx 1080 Phoenix - Which software is possible?
ddrkreature replied to GER_T4IGA's topic in Graphics Cards
Try EVGA PrecisionX 16 -
Not necessarily, but the quality difference between DVI/HDMI and VGA is almost immeasurable. Any modern monitor should come with at least a DVI cable. As for performance on a higher resolution, there will be a performance hit but your system seems plenty capable in handling 1080p. Not max across the board, mind you, but well enough.
-
The difference would be night and day. Save up for one and you shant be disappointed. Just be sure to use a DVI or HDMI connection.

Try x360ce. I had the same issue you're having and that is what was recommended to me. Works like a charm for me.

You can get motherboards with wifi built in, you can get pci-e cards that are for wifi (IMO preferred method), or a USB wifi dongle (temporary bandaid solution)

very bad ping lag caused by neflix on known good isp
ddrkreature replied to Princess-SubWoof's topic in Off Topic
1: that is the longest sentence I've ever seen in my life. Please invest in periods. 2: you can see what kind of net you're being by testing it. speedtest.net is a good one and you can cross-reference the results with fast.com to see if you're being throttled. I'm most willing to believe it's you're networking hardware, though fixing it involves replacing it -
You may or may not have to reinstall windows; it's a case by case basis. But you WILL have to have the key reset and revalidated by microsoft because the OS registration is tied to the hardware.

Is there a difference in laptop and pc hard drives?
ddrkreature replied to reno555gund's topic in Storage Devices
Physical size and storage size options are the biggest differences. Desktop drives tend to be cheaper per GB, also. -
Check to see if image scaling or scale windows icons (or something to that effect) is being used within windows. Should be under display settings.

One Good & One Bad thing about Your PC
ddrkreature replied to Tech_Dreamer's topic in General Discussion
Good: can post anything and everything without a struggle. Bad: already had 2 1080p monitors and I opted for a 4k monitor instead of a 1440p or 2560x1080. 1080p and 4k monitors do not mix very well FIRST WORLD PROBLEMS FTW -
Sounds like your comp went from using the Intel integrated graphics to the 960M
